Chapter 571 - 571 570 Corruption and Uninvited Guests

?Chapter 571: Chapter 570 Corruption and Uninvited Guests Chapter 571: Chapter 570 Corruption and Uninvited Guests Sherry couldn’t tell if it was just an illusion, but ever since they entered this twisted and bizarre “forest,” Ah Gou had been acting a bit sentimental—it had been reminiscing a lot and even recalling past events that hadn’t been mentioned in a long time, some of which Sherry herself had forgotten, yet it remembered them quite clearly.

After hesitating for a moment, Sherry decided to share her feelings.

“Sentimental? Me?” Hearing what Sherry said, Ah Gou was first taken aback, then began to express its doubt, “Really? Have I been reminiscing and getting emotional?”

“Yeah,” Sherry nodded repeatedly, “You do sometimes act like an old woman, bringing up old stories, or giving me a long list of lessons, but you never seemed this… sentimental before. It made me feel quite uncomfortable listening to you.”

Ah Gou gradually halted its advance, and finally it subtly became aware of the faint influences it was under. After pondering for a moment, it tilted its head, its empty and horrifying eye sockets scanning the gloomy dense woods, the blood-colored faint glow within its eyes slowly appearing and disappearing.

“The forest is influencing us… It’s some kind of emotion,” it said solemnly, “The whole forest is pervaded by a heavy and oppressive ‘atmosphere’; it’s making me think wild thoughts, like… like being immersed in a vast mind, constantly disturbed by it…”

Sherry’s eyes suddenly widened with anxiety, “Ah…what? Are you saying that this forest is… sentient?! You’ve been affected by it? Is it serious?”

Ah Gou shook its head side to side, “No, we shouldn’t say it’s the forest, but rather this Dreamscape… Don’t forget its name, The Dream of the Nameless; dreamscapes are themselves fabrications of the mind… But don’t worry, it’s not severe. This influence doesn’t seem to be targeted, it’s just passive interference caused by the environment. Sherry, are you alright?”

“I’m fine,” Sherry pointed to herself, her expression also carrying a touch of puzzlement, “Yeah, if even you’ve been affected, how come I feel nothing… Could it be because I’m more carefree?”

“If it were really that simple, that would be great,” Ah Gou muttered quietly, “Don’t let your guard down. Subtle influences are the most dangerous; the more you feel nothing’s wrong, the likelier it is that something will go wrong. If you suddenly experience a drop in mood or feel panic and anxiety, make sure to tell me immediately.”
