Luckily the main story is at Hogwarts

"Drip! Drip!"

The car was honking furiously.

"The latest report from the New York Daily News is that the Fifth War Fortress is about to be completed. People of suitable age are being recruited from all over the empire. Please note that serving the empire is an honorable thing. Every person of suitable age..."

"Can you drive? Watch the road!"

"Serious conflicts broke out on the South Carolina coastline, suspected to be a counterattack by the remaining colonial forces..."

"The New California colony transported [-] men of school age that month, and they have arrived in New York today. Men of school age who are in need can purchase them as needed. The men of school age will be given priority to the Imperial Legion..."

"Dee! Dee, dee, dee! Stop urging!"

Ciel woke up from his sleep, feeling a little dizzy and groggy, as if he had a cold.

The noisy sounds outside the window intensified the sense of drowsiness. The noisy noise made him deafening, as if his whole head was about to explode... Wait, outside the window?I'm not here...

Yomanji, Jumanji, a trip to the United States, a serial killer checking in and taking a group photo to commemorate the holiday trip...

Many memories came out at once, leaving Charles silent for three seconds. Then he suddenly opened his eyes and rolled over from the bed.

"hiss!"

The blood flowed backwards, which was so sour.

The house was very shabby. Clothes and pants were randomly discarded everywhere, occupying the sofa, bedside, and floor. The dazzling sunlight seeped in through the gaps in the blinds. Under the refraction of the sunlight, the dust in the house looked like elves. Flying wantonly in the air.

Let Charles hold his breath subconsciously.

"Clean up."

he said in a low voice.

The gust of wind swept across, and the suffocating dust disappeared immediately.

The magic works.

Charles got out of bed, leaned against the wall, opened a gap in the blinds with his fingers, and looked out secretly.

Outside the window, there is a shocking world.

The appearance of the Empire State Building is dark and deep, rugged and towering, like a black tower reaching the sky. Surrounding it are several fortress-like buildings. Thick steel pipes are scattered around the outside of the building. From time to time, clouds of white steam erupt from the joints of the pipes. , just like a steampunk, big is beautiful attitude.

Ciel's pupils shrank.

The car running on the ground is still a car, but it looks very weird. The body is semicircular with amazing arcs, like beetles sticking to the ground. The chassis is surrounded by a circle of metal pipes, like the safety buffer rubber of a bumper car. bring.

There are hawking shops and bustling and shining billboards on the streets. The three-dimensional lights are full of brilliant colors even during the day. They have no carrier at all and are suspended in the air out of thin air. The light and shadow are intertwined and dazzling.

As if noticing Ciel's prying eyes, a bottle of champagne was dispensed from the bar sign closest to him, and a star-like beer was sprayed at his window.

Charles closed the gap in the blinds and replaced the window.

The buildings are dense and lined. They are no longer a plane, but a three-dimensional structure. The back door of one store may be the front door on the other side of the block. The top and bottom are also connected. The two stores can even share a floating sign. As long as it changes as it floats up and down, that's fine.

This structure brought great convenience to thieves. As far as he could see, Charles could see many little boys running around in this maze-like city like loaches. They pretended to be casual. A single collision can take away a few days' income of a dockworker or office worker.

"This is so damn..."

Charles also saw many people floating in the sky. They were like festive balloons in the city. But whether it was the black robes covering their bodies or the dangerous lights surrounding them, they all showed that They are obviously not as simple as happy clowns.

As if she noticed that someone was spying secretly, one of the women suddenly turned back, her eyes in mid-air were as sharp as lightning.

But Charles had already retracted one step ahead of time. The latter observed in the air for a long time and found nothing unusual. Then he returned to the state of floating, as if still, a hanging tree.

But Ciel, who was hiding behind the wall, couldn't be so calm. He frowned and had doubts in his mind one after another, why he was here and what happened.

More importantly, what kind of place is this? Where is this place? !

………………

Ciel even felt that he might have traveled through time again, and this time to a place that was completely unfamiliar to him, because he had no impression of this place at all.

But Ciel soon calmed down and felt that maybe things weren't so rough after all.

There are also many large-scale scene changes in the game, which can be said to jump across the world. After traveling through time, Ciel has even encountered them.

For example, Wonderland.

In addition, there are independent dungeon worlds such as the Caribbean Era, The Last Glory of the Gods, and the Mystery of Sleepy Hollow.

Perhaps, it's the same here.

But why did he have no impression at all? There was something wrong with this. He knew all the copies, all the strategies and locations by heart, and it was impossible for a completely unfamiliar location to appear.

Charles found a wooden wicker chair against the wall and sat down. He saw that on the tray on the bedside table diagonally opposite, there was a half-corked bottle of unfinished red wine, and two goblets beside it. He opened his palm and activated the Silent Flying Curse, which fell into his hand with a snap.

After taking a sip, Ciel began to remember.

In his last memory, he participated in the Yumanji game. He wanted to win this game of the brave in order to get one of the rewards of the game. That reward was very good, for him after time travel.

He met Beth Harmon and took her to fight serial killers, then actor Cage, Dwayne Johnson, and finally Carrie and Nicole Flamel.

After a fierce battle, they defeated the enemy, but they themselves were in poor condition and needed to rest, so they...

He fell asleep.

So this is a dream!Dreamland!

Ciel realized the key point.

He is in a dream.

But after discovering this, deeper doubts continued to attack him.

There is no dreaming in the game, just like the princess plot that Hermione encountered before.

But according to what Ciel knows, dreams are basically signs and reminders of the next plot. There are only thirteen dreams of the protagonist, which foreshadow thirteen plots. They may be slightly changed each time, but the difference will not be too much.

And there is absolutely no such thing as the current situation.

This world is completely unfamiliar to Ciel and has no impression at all.

The black towers are tall, the urban space is densely packed, the buildings are squeezed one by one, order and chaos coexist, there are steam pipes emitting white smoke everywhere, black, dust, colorful light pollution and strange technologies that have never been seen before, and Unconventional humans suspended in the air.

If it weren't for this place, it would also be called New York. It would be called Chardonnay, the Night City!
