Chapter 253 Reuniting with Audrey
When Raphael saw Audrey calling him, he quickly closed the door and hurried over to sit down.
Those faces, displaying strange smiles, turned back to the stage, as if to confirm that Raphael was simply a latecomer.
After Raphael sat down, Audrey quietly thanked him for his help.
Raphael waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be polite, and then whispered to Audrey, "Do you know whose dream this is?" Audrey, who was still very beautiful in the dream, also whispered, "I explored several rooms. The most dangerous thing was that there seemed to be two angels fighting in the dream, and I was almost caught in the crossfire."
"Fortunately, that was just the dream owner's impression of that battle, and I have the ability to move freely in dreams, which allowed me to escape."
"I think this must be the dream of some angel, placed or sealed in this painting by a powerful force."
She paused for a moment and then said, "The imagery in an oil painting may be the most direct representation of a dream."
Raphael nodded. He had initially wondered if this was the "Destroyer Wolf's" dream, but after talking with Audrey, he realized that the ancient gods were in a twisted and insane state, so their dreams must also be twisted and insane.
As it stands, these dreams have a basic order and do not show much distortion.
So this might really be an angel's dream. However, this angel has most likely seen the "Destroyer Wolf" and the dream world created by this ancient god, which is why there were such lyrics in the song sung by the "Sketches" just now.
The opera on stage was wonderful, and the audience often burst into enthusiastic applause.
Raphael and Audrey's conversation, which sounded like a hushed critique of the opera, did not seem to arouse any suspicion in the dream.
Raphael then asked in a low voice, "Have you tried to leave this painting?"
"I've tried, but all failed," Audrey replied softly. "My spiritual sense tells me there should be a clear exit here, but just like the entrance, I can't find it."
"At the same time, we cannot ask for help from outside sources, because it would be dangerous if we did."
Audrey's so-called "external help" refers to praying to Mr. Fool.
It wasn't that her prayers went unanswered, but rather that every time she was about to pray, she would instantly be transported back to the dream of the two angels fighting, and each time she had to escape from that dream with great difficulty.
Audrey believed that this was the dream's self-defense mechanism; to avoid interference from higher beings, it simply cut off the prayer process of those trapped here.
Raphael understood Audrey's meaning and therefore had no intention of praying to the "Lord of Evil Desires".
Seeing that the dream was not dangerous for the time being, he quietly told Audrey about how Susie had asked for help.
Audrey was taken aback after hearing Raphael's description. She hadn't expected that Raphael had been invited by Susie. She had thought that Raphael had learned of her disappearance through his connections and that's why he had come to help.
After all, the Hall family's young lady had been missing for more than ten hours, and Audrey felt that her disappearance should have been discovered long ago. She did not expect that Susie was still covering for her and even called for help.
Finally, Raphael said, "Susie may also have entered this dream."

Audrey, however, said, "It might not have come in."
She paused for a moment and then said, "My abilities seem to have been enhanced in this dream. I noticed it immediately when you entered this dream."
"But at the time, I only felt that one person had come in, and I didn't notice Susie."
Raphael nodded: "Then there's no need to look for it anymore. Let's just keep trying to figure out how to get out."
Audrey hummed in agreement.
Even if you get out and find that Susie is still in your dream, you can come back to rescue her after you have made full preparations.
Raphael asked, "Have you tried to leave this place violently?"
Audrey hesitated for a moment before saying, "No."
Because she could always sense the exit, she kept trying to find a way to get closer to it.
Of course, the key point is that the "audience" approach is not a method known for its aggressiveness, and Audrey did not have that habit.
Raphael smiled wickedly and said, "Then let's try the simplest method."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and activated the spirit of the "Reaper" within the "Crawling Hunger," causing a raging fire to erupt around them.
The opera continues, and now it's the role of a female singer whose melodious voice gently conveys her innermost feelings.
The audience looked at Raphael with growing impatience, as if they were looking at a bratty kid in the theater.
Even the people who were burning were looking at Raphael with that same gaze.
The fire in the theater, the indifferent audience, and the singer's melodious voice gave Audrey a strange sense of beauty.
Raphael sneered, "Your reaction is too indifferent; that's not right."
Then he used "Adam's Gift" to unleash the power of "madness" on those around him.
The people around immediately jumped up; some were laughing wildly, some were singing the most exciting parts of the opera, and some were practicing the basic steps or expressions of the opera.
Raphael grabbed Audrey's hand: "Let's go."
Using the "flying" ability of the "Wind-Cherishing" soul in "Crawling Hunger," he carried Audrey to the now chaotic stage. After passing one actor after another, they finally found a red wooden door backstage.
Raphael turned to look at Audrey, who used her spiritual senses to say, "She should be inside."
Raphael immediately turned the doorknob and led Audrey into the dimly lit room.
After the door was closed, the braziers around it suddenly lit up, illuminating the scene inside.
This is an ancient and simple hall with two rows of lifelike statues.
The statues near Raphael and Audrey have facial features and muscles that are exactly like those of real people, and their eyes seem to be inlaid with jewels, giving them a sense of movement.
Further ahead are statues of extraordinary creatures. At the very back of the hall is a throne, which also seems to have something carved on it, but it is not clear from this position.
Audrey glanced at the statue, then looked away somewhat awkwardly.
Because these human statues, regardless of gender, are all naked, and the person who sculpted them seems to be a detail-oriented person, with very delicate carving on every part.
After admiring the two female statues, Raphael commented, "The owner of this dream has most likely seen a witch."
""
The proportions of her figure and the depiction of her facial features were almost perfect, immediately reminding Raphael of a naked Sophia O.
Only a witch could have such a figure.
Thinking of this, Raphael glanced at Audrey, who seemed a little uncomfortable, and stared at her for two seconds before thinking to himself: There are always exceptions. This Miss Hall's figure and looks are even better than the witch's.
