The more Zhang Xiaobo thought about it, the more depressed he became. The whole night, he couldn't sleep well, constantly having those chaotic dreams. He felt awful, he wanted to cry, he wanted to say, how could Feng Yi still haunt him even in death.

In fact, a dream is nothing, of course. After all, when it comes to dreams, there's a lot to be said. Some people have good dreams, some have bad dreams, and others have nightmares.

If it's a good dream, it's fine, because to some extent, good dreams can relieve fatigue. There's scientific basis for this; he once read an article about dreaming in a magazine.

The discussion mainly revolved around the REM stage, light sleep, and deep sleep. Take the REM stage for example, at this stage people generally have no consciousness, or if they do, it's in a dazed state. Once someone like this is woken up, they will suddenly awaken, and it may take a while for them to go back to sleep.

Another stage is the light sleep, during which being called once often won't wake a person because they're already asleep and won't be easily roused by a little noise.

Then there's the deep sleep stage, where unless woken by natural means, or by something else, like being pushed forcefully or falling off the bed, or perhaps suddenly turning over and hitting something, it is very difficult for that person to wake from their dream. Even if they do wake up, they can quickly fall back asleep, so typically, people in deep sleep either don't dream at all, or if they do, they have good dreams.

The best situation is when there are no dreams, because in such a state, the brain remains in a serene state of non-operation, akin to death, with no consciousness. But if it's a sweet dream, the brain doesn't consume much energy either.

But that's not his situation. Lately, Zhang has been dreaming at night, dreaming of either guild wars, malicious PK, or some shady operations like scams and deceptions. Going on like this for long, wouldn't he be losing weight?

Strictly speaking, losing a few pounds is no big deal; eating more could gain it back. As people often say, what you eat becomes yours, and Zhang believes there's some truth in this age-old wisdom.

People often say, reading enriches oneself like food, and what you learn is something you've gained, like mastering a skill. However, Zhang's twisted mind has connected unrelated things.

He was still contemplating, filling in the blanks in a potentially troublesome problem that was seemingly complicated, but in fact quite simple, summarized in one word—dreams.

???

He shouldn't have schizophrenia, so why does he keep dreaming the same dream every night? Zhang thought that someone must be messing with him, but surely it's not Feng Yi, because he remembers in his dream, Feng Yi once told him, "Bro, I really don't want to haunt you. I really don't want to dream about you anymore, at least give me a different girl." Clearly, Feng Yi's situation seemed miserable too, but hadn't he passed away? Once dead, you don't exist, you're no longer in this world.

But there's another saying that death doesn't mean true death; perhaps that person has died, but his consciousness lives on in everyone's hearts, so to some extent, he isn't truly dead.

However, from a scientific standpoint, Feng Yi indeed no longer has self-awareness, so Zhang believes, these dreams of his are probably his own imagination, concocted out of thin air. He finds it odd that during the day, he never thought about Feng Yi at all, except during the Galactic Warfare company's official update announcements was the only time Feng Yi came to mind.

But he soon realized a problem, realized an important problem, realized a very important problem, realized an issue he had to pay attention to.

Yes, that's right. Perhaps his subconscious had already been shocked by the Galactic Warfare update claiming that the Revenge Shadow Rider was about to return! Back then, Zhang was indeed very shocked. If one had to use an analogy, that shock was comparable to the news of a Yellowstone National Park volcano eruption, comparable to jumping directly from the peak of Mount Olympus, comparable to being hit by gamma rays.

As for why, there are three reasons.

The first reason, the Galactic Warfare, a company with shady dealings, has been dormant for many years. As for Hans, the head of the company, it's impossible for him to make a big deal of the Revenge Shadow Rider in their promotional topics, because Zhang believes he understands Hans, he understands Hans more than anyone else. There is no one in this world who understands Hans better than him!

Because Zhang understands Hans, he knows that Hans is not someone who cares only about immediate interests. He is a person with ideals, aspirations, confidence, action, and execution, and he likes to dream.

But it's absolutely impossible for him to dream of the Revenge Shadow Rider, and everything about the Revenge Shadow Rider, Zhang can confirm this, because no one knows Hans better than himself. Even if Hans dreams of the Revenge Shadow Rider, he wouldn't hear conversations with the Revenge Shadow Rider in his dreams, because dreams are all false, even someone like Hans, who loves to dream, is no exception.
