Chapter 3855 Unblocking
Angel did not immediately lift the sealing ritual, but was thinking about a question.
If he canceled the formation now, "Call of the Dark Corner" would disappear completely along with the darkness.
and so……
Should we notify Zuniga before disbanding the formation?
Although "Call of the Dark Corner" is defined as a negative debuff by the power of the fairyland, Angel believes that it is definitely a very positive gain for Zuniga.
So, should Zuniga come over?
While Angel was pondering, a male voice sounded from underground: "Are you thinking about how to destroy the sealing ritual? Do you need my guidance?"
The voice sounded a little strange, as if the tone was deliberately prolonged, and had a sticky feeling of being whispered.
But perhaps it was because of the earth that separated them. Although the tone was strange, it became muffled and slightly relieved of the slipperiness because of a layer of isolation.
Angel: "Abigail?"
"It's me." The extremely smooth voice continued, "It seems that Gleipnir has already told you about me. May I ask, how did you communicate with each other using only consciousness?"
Angel: "How can I explain this? You can think of it as a magical effect. If you want to try it, I will also add this magic to your consciousness when you come out."
Ingres' words were full of earnest guidance.
Although Abigail didn't hear anything wrong, she still felt a chill in her spine. "No, I'm just curious. It turns out to be a kind of magic..."
After a pause, Abigail didn't wait for Angel to reply and quickly changed the subject: "Let's get back to the present, Mr. Magician, are you wondering how to unlock it? Do you need my help?"
Angel shook his head: "No, I know how to unblock it, I'm just thinking about something."
Angel replied casually, and was ready to ignore Abigail for the time being. However, as his thoughts turned, he suddenly thought of something: "By the way, you told Gleipnir before that entering here might be marked by the dark corner?"
Abigail: "Yes, if nothing unexpected happened, you should have already..."
Although Abigail didn't finish her words, Angel understood what she meant.
"Please rest assured, even though it is marked as a dark corner, it does not mean that you will definitely enter the dark corner..."
Angel waved his hand. "I don't care. I actually want to go to the dark corner and take a look. Compared to this, I am actually very curious about one thing. What is the mark on the dark corner? Anyone who has come into contact with the dark corner will be marked? Or is this effect only seen in the dark corner?"
"Of course, it's not just the dark corners. The dark corners will uniformly mark all outsiders. In a sense, you can understand this as a kind of 'division of the people'."
Facing Angel's question, Abigail was much more talkative. This was mainly because she had established a good relationship with Gleipnir. Facing Angel, who was in the same camp as Gleipnir, she was naturally closer. Of course, the most important reason was... Angel and Gleipnir had the same goal. In other words, in the future, Angel would also help Abigail complete the bet with Paipai.
When it comes to future help, I will naturally not be disrespectful.
"Division of subjects?" Angel pondered, "You mean, as long as you are marked by Dark Corner, you will become Dark Corner's 'insider'?"
It is just like when the kingdom discovered a wild village during its expedition and issued kingdom identity certificates to the people in the wild village. Then the wild village and its villagers were planned to be citizens of the kingdom.
Abigail: "Although the details are a little different, you can understand it this way."
Angel murmured softly: "So anyone who has been to the Dark Corner will be marked by the Dark Corner?"
Abigail: "That's clear. In this world, if you come into contact with the dark corners, such as this dark space, it will take a long time for you to be marked; however, those who enter the dark corners will definitely be marked."
After hearing Abigail's explanation, the doubts in Angel's heart fell quietly.
He was still thinking about whether to tell Zuniga about "The Call of the Dark Corner", but now he is sure that it is not necessary. Zuniga himself has fallen into the Dark Corner, so he must have the mark on him.
As for why there is a mark but no dark corners, this is normal.
The dark corner and the real world intersect by chance. Only when the marked person happens to appear nearby at the time of intersection can the dark corner capture you.
Normally, this mark has no effect at all.
The intersection of the dark corner and the real world is very rare, and the probability of an ordinary person encountering it is even lower than 0.1%. Even if you really encounter an intersection, you may not necessarily enter the dark corner.
Under this series of premises, even if Zuniga has a dark corner mark, he may not be captured by the dark corner.
Of course, this is just Ingres's guess.
It is also possible that Zuniga accidentally used his purification ability to purify his own dark corner mark... However, the possibility of this is relatively small.
Now that the knot in his heart had been untied, Angel no longer hesitated and began to unblock it step by step.
Unsealing sounds like a rather cautious word, but the actual operation is very simple. Ingres only needs to find the closed end of the formation, erase the corresponding ink, or cover it with new ink.
While he was unsealing the ritual, he even had some time to chat with Abigail.
It's just idle chat.
The content of the conversation was just about the current situation between Wu Guang and the extension of the previous conversation between Abigail and Gleipnir...
Although Angel really wanted to ask for information about the Dark Corner, Abigail was not willing to talk more.
In its words, it is...
"I don't fully trust you yet."
Although they have the same goal, this is only Gleipnir's one-sided statement. It has just arrived and has not seen Yusup, nor does it know the current situation of the Prada beauty pageant, and what Gleipnir has done...
Therefore, if you want to get information from it, you will probably have to wait for a while.
However, Abigail didn't say it so firmly. If it was just some unimportant information, she wouldn't mind telling it.
And it just so happens that some of the information that it considers unimportant is actually needed by Angel.
For example, the previous "dark corner mark" incident was unimportant information in its eyes, but it was quite important to Angel.
Soon, Angel wore away the first section of the sealing ritual formation.
When this formation was released, the surrounding space obviously produced slight fluctuations.
Even Abigail's voice became louder and smoother.
"When I was attached to Gleipnir before, you seemed unable to communicate with me." Angel: "Why can you communicate with me now?"
The seal is clearly still there, so why didn't it work before but works now?
Abigail: "Before I was able to release the Sealing Ritual, all my consciousness was concentrated in the Dream Bureau."
"It was only after you sent Gleipnir out of the Dark Space that that part of your consciousness regained its freedom. It was only then that I could talk to you..."
Angel realized that, to put it bluntly, the Dream Bureau had trapped both Gleipnir's consciousness and Abigail's consciousness.
Could this also be Paipai’s design?
"It has nothing to do with Paipai. It's simply because I sealed myself too hard. I thought I would have to wander for many years before arriving in the human world, but who knew that I only slept for more than three months and then descended into the human world because of your summoning ceremony." Abigail sighed, "In just three months, the sealing ritual has not been damaged at all, and the formation is still very tight. I can let out so much of my consciousness, which is already amazing..."
Angel could tell that what Abigail said was probably true.
At first, when Abigail spoke to him, her voice was dull and weak; but now, as the sealing ritual was broken, her voice became louder and louder, and the emotions revealed in her words became richer and richer.
Angel could even use extrasensory perception to sense its emotional changes.
"Only more than three months?" Angel murmured in a low voice.
"Only three months. Although I was asleep when I was sealed, my consciousness sank into the Dream Bureau, and I could feel the passage of time." Abigail paused and said, "But I'm also glad that it was only three months. I originally thought that I could keep my consciousness awake for a few years in the Dream Bureau, but after only three months, I felt like I was about to fall apart."
"If it lasts any longer, I probably won't be able to bear it."
"There's nothing I can do. It's just so troublesome when my real body enters the real world..."
Angel was still unblocking the message and listening to Abigail's complaints, but its last sentence made Angel pause.
"real body?"
Abigail: "Yeah, I don't want to use my mind core to enter the real world. If I fail, I will become a puzzle piece in someone else's magic book."
True body... core of mind... puzzle...
Angel felt as if he had heard some extraordinary information.
However, when he wanted to ask, Abigail cunningly stopped talking and once again said her catchphrase: "I don't completely trust you yet..."
Well, after hearing this, Ingres finally understood that Abigail was fishing on purpose.
Deliberately revealing my "real identity" was to arouse his curiosity, and then use this information to control him...
He is indeed the evil clown.
However, Ingres's mood only fluctuated for a moment before he calmed down again.
It doesn't matter if it doesn't say anything. After it comes out, surrounded by the nightmare, it will definitely be happy to speak.
Angel's eyes gleamed, and he did not ask Abigail any more questions. However, his movements were speeding up, and the sealing ritual slowly dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye...
……
ten minutes later.
Angel stood at the gate of the Ruined Paradise, watching Gleipnir go away.
The process of unblocking Abigail went smoothly.
After Abigail was freed, Wu Guangtian also slowly moved. After witnessing Wu Guangtian's passing, they left the cellar.
Go all the way back to the entrance of the Ruins Paradise.
Ingres decided to part ways with them here.
With Abigail, the "Carnival Night Clown", Gleipnir will go to talk to Yusup, and there should be no problem in the second round of main tasks.
The second round of main line is different from the first round. This round of main line is shared by all people in the copy. As long as someone can pass the main line, other people in the copy will also pass it.
Therefore, it doesn't matter whether Angel follows Gleipnir to Prada Media Company or not.
The reward might be a little less than Gleipnir, but not much less.
Compared to the main quest that has already been completed, what Angel wants to do now is... draw cards and explore the home of the former noble knight.
You need Com to draw cards.
Com was actually in the West Eighth District, not far from the Eighth Town. But later, Angel suddenly remembered that there was still a "Miss Halloween" mission that had not been completed. After completing this mission and getting the "Style Eye", he could draw cards together.
In addition, the goal of the "Miss Halloween" mission is to have at least twenty people match Halloween styles that suit them before the style party ends, and actively participate in Dany's style party.
Although Xiaolu had already sent people over, Angel thought that one more person was better than one less, so he sent Com as well.
In this way, I can go to Modern Middle School later to meet Com, and activate the skill of the "Style Eye" card.
So, at this time, Com has left the West Eighth District and is now in the South Third District.
The card drawing had to be postponed temporarily, so Angel turned his attention to the villa next to the canal, which was the residence of the missing former noble knight.
It happens to be in the eighth town.
He planned to explore here first, so he and Gleipnir went their separate ways.
After looking around and finding the direction, Ingres turned on the God's perspective while walking towards Wanming Street.
He marked several people worth noting in Modern City, including "the man of destiny" Kang, Zuniga who pursued the throne, Lizzie, the cadre of Tina Entertainment, and Connors, the director of Beverly Nursing Center...
Every time Ingres used the God's perspective, he would subconsciously look at the marked person.
Com, for his part, was already at Modern High School, and he seemed to be enjoying the style party, having even dressed up as a vampire lord in a silk cape.
It's just that his slightly bulging belly doesn't seem quite suitable for this Halloween costume.
It seems that I will have to change his look when I go to Modern Middle School later.
Zuniga continued to paint graffiti in various areas, hoping to find the people who had drifted here by smuggling his own ideas into the graffiti. At this time, he had already gone to the central area and rented a conspicuous area on the wall of the square near Tina Entertainment to paint graffiti.
As for Lizzie and Connors, the reason why Angel pays attention to these two people is that they are given "missions".
Lizzie is doing the "Homecoming" side quest, sending an unknown corpse in the cleaning room back home.
Connors led the medical team of Beverly Care Center to conquer the mutant virus and complete the hidden mission "Resuscitation" assigned to them by Angel.
