Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 2123 The Truth of the Picture Book

After reading the introduction of the vanity mirror named Voice of Forgetting, Angel vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"Let the user forget a certain person or a certain item", this effect is not very strong, it can be achieved by magic.For example, Angor can use the power of nightmares to invade other people's brains, which can also achieve corresponding effects.

It is even said that without extraordinary power, a simple physical impact may short-circuit the brain nerves, throw the memory box into the abyss of thought, and finally achieve the result of amnesia.

Therefore, in Angel's opinion, this prop has some weak points.He didn't understand why Crowley recorded it in the book and wrote a note on it.

Could it be because this vanity mirror was made by Crowley himself, so he recorded it on purpose?
Angel's gaze stopped at the second row "Hoopa Coefficient: 2". What is this Hoopa Coefficient?He never heard of it.

Doubts rose one after another, which made Angel's brows furrowed tightly, and a strange feeling filled his heart.

"Maybe, there will be an answer later." With doubts, Angel looked to the next page.

On the second page of the hand-painted illustrated book, the style of painting is still very clean and clear. A few simple lines outline a flying meteor.

However, this shooting star is not a real shooting star, but a shooting star with a little fairy tale cartoon style.A regular pentagonal star with long and short lines around it symbolizes that it is shining; behind the star is an arc of light drawn with gold powder, which represents that it is flying.

Just looking at the illustration book, Angel is actually full of doubts.He guessed before whether the illustrated book was a prop refined by Crowley himself, but now there is this fairy-tale shooting star... Will someone really refine it?What are you doing for refining?
Full of doubts, Angel moved his gaze down to the introduction of the illustrated book.

"Name: Star of Hope"

"Hoopa Coefficient: 36"

"Attribution: Unknown"

"Effect: People who see the star of hope, go to pray, maybe your wish will come true...although the chance is not great."

This introduction of information directly shattered Angel's previous guess.From the effect point of view, this almost involves a mysterious fate. In Angel's view, alchemy is very difficult to do... Perhaps, someone can really do it, but Angel is currently unimaginable.

Also, if it was really refined by Kuluoli, it shouldn't be who it belongs to, and he doesn't know.

Angel continued to look down, and saw Crowley's remarks on this illustration.

"Remarks: In this world, the answers to many things are already predetermined. You try your best to fight for it, but you still can't get it in the end. But if you make a wish to the star of hope, as long as you work hard, you can at least pry it. That doomed ending, let you see a glimmer of hope... well, even if it is slim, there is still hope, right? Every 300 years, the star of hope will appear once, seize the opportunity to pray to it."

After reading the notes, Angel was stunned for a long time.

Leaving aside all the weirdness mentioned in the notes for the time being, and simply analyzing the mentality when writing the notes, it can be seen from the strokes that Crowley is more like an absolutely calm recorder than a participant.

This also proves once again that the items in the illustrated book are not refined by Clowly, he is just recording his existence.

After confirming this fact, looking back at Star of Hope's remarks, there is still a sense of fate——

Many things are fate, and you have to accept fate; but with the help of the Star of Hope, a way to get rid of fate can be shown in the shackled fate.As for whether you can grasp hope, it depends on whether you can grasp the opportunity.

It can be seen that the Star of Hope has given a little hope, but hope may not be so easy to come by.

Angel saw it for the first time, and felt that the effect was average, but it could not be achieved by alchemy.But after combining the notes and thinking about it carefully, he had a new feeling.

The word hope, from the beginning of its birth, has meant ambiguity.If hope is really so easy to get, it can't be called hope at all.

Therefore, the effect of "breaking the absolute dilemma and having a glimmer of hope" is actually not ordinary.

Also, there is no written limit on the introduction of Star of Hope, which is very frightening.

Everyone's request and the predicament that everyone falls into are obviously different, so when encountering the star of hope, the cause and effect of praying are naturally different.

But the stars of hope seem to be treated equally, breaking the absolute shackles and opening up a path of hope for different prayers.

The range of this threshold, as if there is no interval, has reached infinity?
If this is the case, then the effect is not ordinary, but against the sky!
Although Crowley didn't make it clear, Angel could still vaguely feel that the Star of Hope could really bring a glimmer of hope to all the predicaments.

It seems that the refiner of the Star of Hope—if there is a refiner, they never considered the so-called threshold value at all, but gave the Star of Hope the ability to ignore even the law when it was first born.

This feeling made Angel taste a familiar taste.

Breaking through the restrictions of the law, completely ignoring logic... Isn't this a mysterious thing?

"Could it be that this illustrated book introduces mysterious things?" As soon as Angel's thought arose, he quickly occupied the high ground of his thoughts, directly dispelled all the previous doubts, and sent a message in his mind. The ten thousand zhang radiance shows an absolute sense of existence.

"Yes, only mysterious things can make sense!" Angel's eyes lit up suddenly. What he felt was wrong before, when he used "mystery" as an explanation, it was instantly dispelled.

Angel now almost believes in his heart that this illustrated book is to record mysterious things!However, he still needs to find another corroboration.

Angel quickly turned to the next page.

The illustrated book on the next page is a very delicate looking envelope, with golden dark lines on all four sides, and even the golden ink pad inlaid with pure white feathers on the seal.

Crowley probably used a lot of gold powder when drawing, even if it's just a flat illustration, it looks golden.

"Name: Time Postcard"

"Hoopa Coefficient: 24"

"Belonging: Orderly Guild"

"Effect: A postcard sent to someone at a certain time in the future. The postcard can include one of your abilities for short-term use by future recipients."

"Remarks: This is a gift from the old days. It's just that you, who can't see through time, really think that the person in the future is worthy of your gift? Of course, if you are sending it to your future self, I didn't say it. "

After reading the introduction of the time postcard, Angel did not think about whether the effect was reasonable, because it was not necessary at all.

All his gazes were focused on the ownership of time postcards.

Orderly guild!

Others may not understand what kind of organization this is, but Angel, who has had an intersection with Frost, has already obtained information about this lawful guild from him.

This is a super-star federation in the source world!The main job of the lawful guild is to recover the out-of-control mysterious objects and avoid causing greater disasters.

In a sense, the lawful guild is where most of the mysterious things belong!

Because a mysterious hunter who can recover out-of-control mysterious objects must also carry mysterious objects with him.

The postcard of time can be collected by the lawful guild, combined with its illogical effect, it is basically certain that it must be a mysterious thing.

Then the previous speculation is also clear, this illustrated book is indeed to record mysterious things!
What made Angor a little puzzled was that Frost once told him that mysterious things are very private things, and he would not reveal them easily. How could Crowley know so many mysterious things and do it on purpose? Hand-drawn for research?
Angel remembered that in order to find the hidden room, Rhine used time gaps in the laboratory on the third floor underground, and he sensed a mysterious smell at that time.

Based on this piece of information, is Crowley researching something mysterious?Or, is he actually a mysterious alchemist?
Angel pondered for a moment, temporarily putting aside this question.These questions may be answered from "Kuloli's Notes", and they can be put down for now.

Angel turned the page back to the first page.

After confirming the materiality of this hand-painted illustrated book, the "sound of forgetting" recorded on the first page is also a mysterious thing.

Angel is a little concerned, why does the effect of this mysterious thing seem to be so weak?
Angel re-read the introduction of the Voice of Forgotten. Literally, Angel made two discoveries.

The first is the Hoopa coefficient.The Hoopa coefficients of the latter two mysterious objects both reached double digits, but the Hoopa coefficient of the Voice of Oblivion was only a mere "2".

Once, Your Excellency Isabel told him that there is a set of levels for mysterious things in the source world.

Could it be this Hoopa coefficient?
Does the higher the Hoopa coefficient, the more powerful it is?Because the Hoopa coefficient of the Voice of Oblivion is very low, only 2, so its effect is not as expected?
This guess, from a practical point of view, has a high probability of being the correct answer.But Angel still felt a little weird, because could strength really define a mysterious thing?

Alchemists measure whether an alchemy item is powerful, basically starting from the energy level, whether it is the destruction energy level, the defense energy level, or the energy level contained in itself, there are intuitive and clear grade differences.

But the mysterious thing seems to be different, the mysterious power itself is difficult to divide from the energy level.

So regardless of the energy level, it is actually unfair to classify mysterious things from the perspective of destructive power, because many mysterious things have no destructive power and still have very powerful effects.

Another point, the main factor that Angel would think something was wrong, was his own understanding.

Angel has a mysterious thing: the dream conch on the Moonlight Coast.

Angel's first impression of Meng Conch was that it was very weak.This is the established impression that various magazines have finally reached after years of publicity, and it has even influenced the entire wizarding community's view of Dream Conch.

Is Kemeng Conch really weak?Absolutely not weak.Especially when Angel created the Wilderness of Dreams, Meng Conch directly became a strategic existence, and could even influence and open up a new era!
After seeing the salted fish of Dream Conch turned over, Angel basically had an argument that it is difficult to divide the strength of mysterious things with absolutes. As long as the method is correct, no matter how dusty and dark the mysterious things are, Can shine brilliantly.

Because of this idea, when Angel guessed that "the Hoopa coefficient is to distinguish the strength of mysterious things", he felt an obvious sense of disobedience.

This sense of disobedience led him to find another discovery of the voice of forgetting.

Second, the roots.

The effect of the voice of forgetting is: "Facing this object, repeating a certain name, you will completely forget everything about him from the root. It is also effective for objects."

The "root" in the effect may be somewhat different from what he understands as erasing memory. Is this the true ability of the mysterious thing?

In fact, Angel didn't know if this discovery was useful, or if he was too picky about words, but when he read the sentence "to forget everything about the other party from the root", he always felt a chilling feeling, and rushed to his face. Come.

He did not know which of the two findings was correct.

Perhaps only when he understands the truth about the Hoopa coefficient can he make a judgment.

Angel couldn't help looking at the thick pile of books on the desk... Will there be a record of the Hoopa coefficient?
"Hey, someone is calling my real body." When Angel's mind was full of thoughts, the voice of the tree spirit came over.

Angor raised his head and found that the tree spirit was muttering complainingly: "When I saw how Bellos used the power of the guild to suppress new followers, it was a wonderful moment, but it was interrupted."

Although the tree spirit was full of reluctance, he still closed his eyes and focused his thoughts on where his real body was.

A few seconds later, the tree spirit raised his head and said to Angel, "It was Rhine who was looking for me. He has left the level."

Angel: "Has Your Excellency Rhine come? Then shall we go pick him up now?"

The tree spirit quickly waved his hand: "He will come by himself, wait for him to come to the door of the room, I will finish this paragraph first."

After the tree spirit finished speaking, he quickly picked up the note in his hand, and flipped through it quickly, with a fascinated expression, not as if he was reading a notebook, but as if he was reading a novel with ups and downs.

"Fictions also come from reality, and sometimes they can't even show the splendor of reality. Perhaps, Crowley's experience may be more ups and downs than fiction."

Thinking so, Angel picked up the illustration book in his hand and continued to look down.

This time, Angor didn't seek further understanding, but quickly browsed through the information in different illustrated books.

The more I look at it, the more emotional I am.

The abilities of mysterious beings are various. Most of them have physical objects, but there are still some mysterious beings that don't even have physical bodies.

For example, there is a mysterious thing called "the heartbeat of a lonely clown", and its effect is that everyone who hears the heartbeat will dance to it.

Although Crowley drew a heart on the illustrated book, the follow-up notes clearly stated that the heart is not a mysterious thing, and the sound of the heartbeat is the so-called mysterious core.

As long as you match the heartbeat, then you will become a container for this mysterious thing.

It is worth mentioning that the effect of this mysterious thing seems to be insignificant, but its Hoopa coefficient is as high as 61!
