    Chapter 94: Self Dimension


    "New self?"


    n nodded gently and exined in detail:


    "Yes, there are many ways to reach the ''awakening'' level, and the Mirror of Dream is one of them, which is currently considered a mainstream method."


    He continued, "The ultimate goal of all methods is the same, which is to find the ''newborn'' version of oneself."


    "It''s aplete transformation beyond the limitations of ordinary human… but such changes are uncontroble and irreversible, so some people regret bing an ''awakening'' level."


    "The key point of the Original Level is ''return,'' while the key point of the awakening level is undoubtedly ''change.''"


    n stopped for a moment when he mentioned this, as if he had thought of many unpleasant memories.


    "Being thrown into madness, turning into a monster, or even death… these are all changes in a certain sense. In fact, those who mutated during the breakthrough may not have necessarily failed."


    "However, the oue may not be what he desires."


    Bai Yan nodded gently, fullyprehending that whether it be transforming into Captain America, a roon, a pile of mud or even encountering death itself, all are qualitative transformations.


    For the infinite universe, there is no essential difference between any of them.


    From a human point of view, there is a difference between high and low.


    "But I definitely cannot ept that, if I were to turn into a pile of mud, I would definitely smother you first." Bai Yan''s tone was calm and gentle, and didn''t sound like a threat at all.


    n was stunned, and immediately muttered, "Damn it, do you have a problem? If there is an ident, it''s not my fault, is it?"


    "Bring it to me."


    Suddenly, Bai Yan extended his hand and looked at n earnestly.


    "What?"


    n employed the skill of "pretending to be ignorant" and stared silently.


    "I have already read many relevant reference books long ago."


    Bai Yan smiled faintly and said, "In ancient times, people had invented auxiliary drugs to improve the sess rate of ''correct awakening,'' and with continuous improvement until our modern society, the probability of ''abnormal awakening'' is already quite low with the help of these drugs, less than two percent."


    "Alright, alright."


    n nodded lightly, though he wanted to see Bai Yan afraid. Darn it.


    Then he took out a small blue pill and handed it to Bai Yan, saying, "This is the exclusive ''Control Pill'' of Demon Hunt Agency, which has been improved from generation to generation. Because you are a Night Watcher, you can apply for it for free. This thing can increase the probability of ''normal awakening'' to ny-eight percent."


    "Do not underestimate this pill. Even a low-quality Control Pill on the ck market can actually be sold for hundreds of thousands of dors per pill, while the price for the genuine one can exceed a million."


    Bai Yan nodded lightly, once again praising himself for joining the official decision. The abundant resources and benefits he enjoyed were iparable to those obtained by rogue super beings.


    By the way, he suddenly thought of something.


    If the supplies of the Babel Tower were taken out for sale or trade…


    This line of thinking is not without merit. Resources should flow to fully realize their greatest value.


    He ingested the pill, yet felt no evident change.


    ording to the principle presented in the book, the so-called "Control Pill" is actually an alchemical medicine that stabilizes the soul, preventing the changes brought on by awakening from spiraling out of control, beyond the realm of humanity.


    n handed over the ancient round mirror with a silver-white frame in his hand and finally said:


    "Pick it up and gaze at it with full concentration… Wishing you good luck."


    Bai Yan picked up the Mirror of Dream, and ording to n''s instructions, began to gaze at his own reflection in the mirror.


    A handsome face that could be deemed as truly elegant.


    Is that…truly me?


    Gradually, he became aware that something was amiss.


    The "self" in the mirror was also staring at him fixedly.


    However, suddenly, the "Bai Yan" in the mirror realized that something was wrong too, as if he had discovered that he was actually in the mirror, and appeared somewhat perplexed.


    That "Bai Yan" suddenly burst intoughter.


    However, the true Bai Yan still stared at the face without any intention of turning his eyes away, and was not at all scared by the eerie transformation.


    "Why, aren''t you afraid of me?"


    The "Bai Yan" in the mirror slowly spoke, saying, "I am another you, and also your true self…your madness, your emptiness, your cruelty, your weakness."


    "On one hand, ruthlessly dominating others, on the other hand, hypocritically considering them aspanions, neither walking the path of a seeker of truth to be the savior, nor acting steadfastly and ruthlessly prioritizing efficiency, always having concerns."


    "Glory, freedom, protection… they all have their own determination."


    "In fact, you are the only person in Babel Tower without faith."


    "Isn''t it ridiculous? You, being the ''Savior,''ck the necessary determination."


    Oh, here ites!


    "The book mentioned about the ''inner torment'', and it has indeede."


    This is a necessary step to enter the ''Self Dimension'', which Bai Yan remembers very clearly.


    Bai Yan remainspletely calm, responding with a nonchnt "oh."


    The "Bai Yan" in the mirror continues to speak with a smile.


    "So, what is it that you truly long for? Is it the beautiful and pure bodies of those women, or the glory that everyone seeks, or perhaps the self-satisfaction thates after saving the world? Or is it the tremendous power that no one can match?"


    Various fantasies appeared in the mirror, some making one''s blood boil, some making one feel content.


    Bai Yan only watched in silence, scene after scene, without speaking a single word.


    "As an ''ordinary person'', I don''t deny that I have various desires, but the most important thing is…I really want to win the second ythrough of the game."


    "Since the game has already begun, I should y well till the end."


    "Are you satisfied with this answer?"


    The name ''Bai Yan'' in the mirror gradually disappeared, leaving behind the faint sound of itsst existence.


    "Actually, you are not like that…"


    Bai Yan slightly furrowed his brow, "Is this enough? It doesn''t feel quite right. They say that one must ovee the inner questioning to truly experience ''self-exploration''."


    But his "self" was perhaps too gentle, disappearing too quickly.


    "Never mind."


    Soon, Bai Yan arrived at the so-called "Self Dimension".


    The so-called "Self Dimension" is one of many special worlds, just like the shadow dimension "Gray Area", the dream dimension, "Soul Dimension", and so on…


    This is a special world born from the "Self", and every soul can give birth to a unique "Self Dimension".


    And each Self Dimension is also unique and unparalleled, and the "new self" born from the Self Dimension is the key to reaching "awakening"!


    Of course, this is only one of the ways to reach "awakening".


    Actually, there are many ways to be stronger.


    The most rmended way is to be like Maryse… When she was eight years old, she woke up from a nap and was already so strong!


    Oh, if you can''t do that, never mind then.


    There was no change in the world in Bai Yan''s eyes, except for the absence of the ancient mirror with the silver-white frame.


    "Is this my Self Dimension?"


    He raised his head and looked at n, who was still standing in front of him.


    But n, at this moment, was motionless, as if time had been frozen.


    Bai Yan silently reached out his hand, but it swiftly passed through n''s body without touching anything.


    "Nomunication between us."


    Without lingering, he opened the door to the storage room and left.


    Bai Yan soon discovered that it was actually the familiar university library outside, and the students there were all in apletely still state at the moment.


    "Is this the Self Dimension?"


    The crucial point is to search for the "new self"… that entity could take any form, even something bizarre and unimaginable.


    It is said that someone found the "new self" in the "Self Dimension" as a charming little girl, and as a result, he gained the power to transform into a magical girl…


    Bai Yan was moving around in the library while looking around.


    ording to the book''s instructions, once you spot it, you will surely recognize that it is your "new self".


    "Then let''s just keep searching."


    If one wishes to enter the level of awakening through "the Mirror of Dream", constant exploration is necessary.


    However, it is not entirely a matter of luck. It is said that the more proficient one is in their own extraordinary powers, the more likely they are to encounter the "new self" in the Self Dimension.


    Outside the library, there is a steady, fine rain, and the sky is dark and gloomy. The only light in the dark school centeres from the library.


    Bai Yan suddenly discovered a strange person in the library.


    It was… himself again.


    It was Bai Yan ying on his phone on a chair by the window,pletely motionless, with vivid game prompts disyed on his phone screen.


    "Congrattions!"


    "Savior, you have sessfully entered the second ythrough!"


    Bai Yan wasn''t very surprised, mainly because he had prepared thoroughly, and knew the reason why this "self" appeared.


    "That''s right, it''s just like the book says, ''Self Dimension'' is an imaginary worldposed of one''s predetermined past and possible future."


    Once again, Bai Yan proceeded and walked through the entire library, finally arriving at the entrance on the first floor.


    He slowly opened the door and saw the scenery outside.


    It was not a school with continuous pouring rain, but a university campus shining under the sunlight where hundreds of people stopped on the road, many of whom were carrying luggage.


    "Is this the day of enrollment?"


    Bai Yan slightly furrowed his brow, entered the still crowd, and gradually found himself again.


    This slightly younger "Bai Yan" was somewhat different from the present him, appearing more spirited, with full confidence and determination in his eyes, butcking a bit ofziness and emptiness.


    Bai Yan began to mutter to himself suddenly.


    "Continuing to search like this… Could I perhaps catch a glimpse of my former self on Earth?"
