Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 1281 Little Nightmare
Angel narrated the "dream" he had when he was in a coma.

After he finished speaking, he still couldn't figure it out, and asked, "Is this really a dream?"

If it was a dream, why would Sanders know about Falling into the Abyss, and that puppet, obviously before he saw Sanders picking up that puppet.

Moreover, Angel felt that the experience at that time was very real, not like a dream.The confusion of being shackled, the despair of being trapped, and the discomfort of countless negative energy shocks, he recalled it vividly now.

It's not like a dream at all, it's like his personal experience.

"It's very similar to a dream. However, compared to a dream, I think it is a more appropriate name for the real and illusory space created by mysterious things." Sanders replied.

Illusory space?Although Saunders didn't explain the meaning of this real-illusory space, Angor understood it as soon as he heard it.Because, there is a faction in the illusion department, which is true illusion.

The so-called true and false, seeming real and illusory, the combination of reality and reality, it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.A wizard who chooses the faction of reality and fantasy is definitely a good player who has insight into everything and grasps people's hearts.

Then the meaning of "real illusion space" is self-evident.Dreams are bound to be illusory.The real and illusory space is a space where it is impossible to distinguish between real and fake, that is to say, there are not only illusory existences, but also real existences in it.

In that experience last night, what was true and what was false?
Faced with Angor's doubts, Sanders said lightly: "True and false are relative terms. As a person who has experienced it, you might as well talk about your own judgment."

Angel recalled for a moment, trying to interpret the experience of last night: "The muddled world is fake, but my thinking is real; the picture that tempted me to fall is fake, but the black shadow monster is real; The abyss is fake, but the negative energy that exists is real."

When Angel said this, he paused and looked at Sanders with questioning eyes.

Sanders shook his head: "It seems that you didn't understand what I meant. You should recall what I said before."

Remember what the teacher said?Although Angor was puzzled, Sanders hadn't said much since he woke up. Looking back, there should be clues.

Angel began to follow the words in his memory, one by one, to clarify them.

But no clues were found until Angel recalled what Sanders said: "Tell me about your experience last night...falling into the abyss."

Angel raised his head suddenly: "Is it true that you have fallen into the abyss?"

Sanders neither shook his head nor nodded, and said calmly: "To be precise, what you experienced yesterday was all fake, only falling into the abyss is real."

"I actually don't know what you experienced last night, but only the abyss of depravity. Not only did I see it with my own eyes, I also witnessed your consciousness being dragged towards the mouth of darkness by it."

When Angel heard this, he also realized something: the ultimate purpose of falling into the abyss was to drag him into it.

In other words, only the ultimate goal is true, and the process is all a false experience evolved to serve this ultimate goal.

"I was not dragged into the abyss of depravity, is it because of my mentor?" Angel suddenly remembered something: "Is it that puppet?"

"You should have guessed the identity of that puppet." Sanders did not point it out, but nodded and said: "The negative energy released by the fallen abyss wants to assimilate you. That negative energy is full of mystery. There is no other effective way to disperse."

"So, I made some calculations and chose to release the resentment in the puppet and maintain a balance to wake you up."

Sanders said it simply, even understatement, as if it wasn't a big deal.

But Angel, as a witness, can personally feel that it is not easy.Sanders' so-called "measurement" must have a grasp of the overall situation, and precise calculations are required to instantly balance the negative energy released from the resentment and the abyss of depravity into a terrifying balance.

If it is not easy to control, or if there is something missing, the resentment released by the resentment puppet will not only fail to become a balance of terror, but will also affect Angel, and even help him enter the abyss of degeneration faster.

From this detail, we can know that Sanders' terror lies not only in his strength, but also in his judgment of the situation, extremely precise calculations, and decisive execution.

If one is missing, Angel probably won't escape and ascend to heaven.

Thinking of this, Angel expressed his sincere gratitude to Saunders: "If it weren't for my mentor, I'm afraid I wouldn't have seen the sunshine today."

Lyon, who stood aside and listened to the whole process, didn't understand the danger, but he knew that Angel could be rescued thanks to the help of Sanders, and looked at Sanders with grateful eyes.

Sanders said lightly: "I just put an end to it for you. You were the one who really saved you. If you hadn't used a mask to resist when you faced the Scarlet Kingship before, otherwise you would have entered the abyss of depravity directly , how can there be subsequent struggles to survive.”

After Angel finished listening, he covered his right eye with his hand.

He also didn't expect that the spiritual gospel, which was fleeting at that time, became the decisive key to saving him.

In the previous experience in the "real illusion space", at the beginning, the green pattern blocked the erosion of darkness, which may refer to his act of activating his right eye.

However, Angel was still a little puzzled, why did the gospel of the soul come into being at that time?Is it because of the psychic omen of the wizard; or is it because of that person's troubles?
Angor couldn't get the answer, but from the perspective of consequence theory, at least it is good now.

"So it seems that the mask produced by activating the right eye with magic power has some kind of non-material defense function?" Angel secretly said, it seems that it is necessary to advance the test plan.

"Don't mention these trivial matters. After listening to your report just now, I can basically confirm that the effect of Scarlet Kingship should be to pull people into the abyss of corruption." Sanders: "This is consistent with my previous guess. "

However, Angel did not really enter the abyss of depravity, so they are still unable to determine the true effect of the Scarlet Kingship.

But what is certain is that the fallen abyss is full of a lot of negative energy, if the consciousness is dragged into it, abnormalities will inevitably appear.

Maybe, like Eureka, she fell into madness.

While they were thinking, Leon, who had never spoken, suddenly said, "If you mean the effect of the red light, I might know something about it."

Angel and Sanders glanced at each other, then looked at Leon.

……

After a long while, Angel tidied up his clothes a little and left the room.

Lyon led the way, while Angel and Sanders were one step behind.

Sanders seems to be very interested in the environment where Angor grew up, observing the surrounding details along the way.Angel looked at the familiar murals and corridors with a gloomy look in his eyes.

The murals have been dusted, and the carpets in the corridor are not only warped at the edges, but some carpets are directly missing.

Where the carpet is missing, it can be clearly seen that there are black marks on the granite floor. With Angor's current eyesight, he can identify the source of the marks at a glance-blood.

Just from this detail, Angel can imagine how tragic the changes that happened in the castle not long ago.

From upstairs to downstairs, the dust never disappeared, and Angel even saw spider webs in the corners of the ceiling.And along the way, I didn't see any servants. As Jin Cancan said before, some of the servants were sent to Gelu Town, while the other part of the servants...may have encountered an accident.

Thinking of this, several figures flashed in Angel's mind. They were all the servants who had a very close relationship with him when he was living in Pat Manor, and Angel even regarded them as friends and family members.

Angor seemed to have a thorn in his throat, and he didn't know how to ask about their current situation.

"The layout here is very interesting in some places." When Angor was silently sad, Sanders suddenly said: "The texture under the mural, and the blue and white porcelain with these strange patterns, have a very peculiar style."

Leon: "That's the style of old man Jon's hometown. My father likes it very much, so he added it when he arranged the interior."

Sanders also guessed the origin of these things. Although the Canary Empire also has its own style, it is not much different from the mainstream ones, and these decorations are completely different styles.

Looking at these strange styles, Sanders couldn't help becoming interested in the "human race from another world" who hadn't met yet.

Soon, Leon led them through the corridor and came to the auxiliary building.

He stopped in front of the darkest gate of the annex building.

"This seems to be..." Angel looked at the door, and his memory returned to his childhood in a trance.

He was very naughty when he was a child, and he liked to do rebellious things the most. The more adults refused to do it, the more he wanted to do it.As for this door, old Pat strictly prohibited them from entering, how could Angel listen to it at that time.The so-called "strict prohibition" simply means "must go and see".

So, Angel sneaked in in the middle of the night when the servants were not paying attention.

As a result, he came in only to find that the back of this door was actually connected to a rather large basement, which contained some tightly locked wine barrels.

Angel felt bored after watching it, and was about to go back, but the door was locked from the outside.

It was a silent and long night. Angel, who was still a little bean at that time, shivered under the dim yellow wall lamp, looking at the dark world outside the range of the light in fear.

He was very scared at the time, always thinking that monsters would pop out of the dark place.This fear lasted all night.

Looking back now, it seems like a nightmare.

When the door was opened the next day, it was discovered that this was a bureau specially set up by his father, Lao Pat, just to get rid of his rebellious character of listening to irony.

As it turns out, the effect is noticeable.Since then, Angel has been more cautious in his actions.

However, he never stepped into this basement again.Here, it seems to have become his little nightmare.

Until he grew up and was no longer afraid of this basement, he still didn't come in, because at that time he was busy taking care of Jon who was seriously ill; later, he left the Old Earth, and this basement never existed again. appeared in his mind.

"This is old Pat's wine cellar, have you forgotten?" Leon winked and said, "You were locked in here when you were a child. At that time, I squatted at the door and heard you cry all night."

Angel's face darkened, and he said very stiffly: "I didn't cry."

Leon originally wanted to make fun of it, but at this moment, there was a sobbing sound from behind the door.Leon froze for a moment, his expression slowly changed from joking to sad, and finally he sighed: "Well, you didn't cry, I misheard."

"It's time to get down to business. Didn't you ask about the effect of the red light?" Leon pointed to the locked door: "Here is the answer."
