Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 2897 Carnival of Gluttons
Not only rebirth, but also the withering of the big Mary rose in the rose garden may be inseparable from her.

Because she was reborn surrounded by countless bright and beautiful big Mary roses.

Angel didn't know exactly what happened, but, judging from the naked eye, she seemed to have absorbed all the life energy of the rose against the trend, and only then did weird changes begin to appear.

The reborn girl has the pattern of a big Mary rose all over her body. Whether it is a long skirt, a headdress, earrings, or her exposed shoulders and back, there are bright rose tattoos on her skin.

Even when she was smiling up to the sky and celebrating her rebirth, Angel saw that her pupils and tongue nails had turned into rose shapes.

The girl after Rose's rebirth, after laughing unscrupulously, slowly turned her gaze towards the direction of the house.The laughter slowed down, but evoked a sly smile full of malice and coquettishness.

Flowers bloomed step by step, the girl walked slowly towards the house.

As the girl entered the house, another drastic change occurred in Hakoniwa.

The seemingly ordinary house was suddenly surrounded by countless rose thorns. The green vines were like ropes, binding the white walls and red tiles; the thorns on the vines penetrated into the house, as if they were sucking blood. .

Soon after, rosebuds appeared on the thorn vine, followed by a series of blooming roses.

So far, nothing has changed in Little Garden.

Or rather, there are changes, but all within the house.Angor's perspective was fixed at this time, and he couldn't see what was going on inside the house.

After waiting for a while, Angel gave up on continuing to spy and exited from the perspective of the birdcage.

After exiting the bird cage and box garden, Angel slowly opened his eyes.Unexpectedly, he was stunned the first second he opened his eyes.

He still remembers... before he entered the birdcage box court, the crystal creation in front of him was a long whip with barbs.

But now, the long whip remains unchanged as a whole, but at some point, it is full of red crystal roses, big and small.

From the outside, the long whip has become more beautiful, but it feels more dangerous to Angel.The thorny big Mary crystal rose is like a beautiful trap, when it attracts your attention, it seems to be tempting you to fall.

"This is... what's going on?" Angel had doubts in his eyes.

Laplace gave Angor a strange look, and said, "I still want to ask you. Not long after you closed your eyes, these roses grew out of this whip... Did you do something wrong?"

Angor quickly shook his head in denial.

Laplace: "Let's not mention the rose on the whip for now. I remember you said, you want to go in to solve the puzzle, why haven't you gone in? Or, relying on the special power in your mouth, you can solve it outside." puzzle?"

Angleton paused for a second, turned his head in embarrassment, and said with a smile: "There was a little accident."

"A small...accident?" Laplace narrowed his eyes and looked at Angel.

Although Laplace's crumbly woman's crumbly eyes made Angel feel ashamed, he still faced the suspicious gaze and explained: "When there are unknown changes in the special dream, no one can enter, even Even if it’s me, I can’t enter it until the transformation is over.”

When Angel spoke, he looked directly into Laplace's eyes, and there was no need for Angel to lie to her about it.Therefore, Laplace believed this argument.

"Although you haven't entered Helen's Dream, you should be able to see the changes inside?" Laplace asked, otherwise, why would Angel have closed his eyes for so long.

Angel didn't deny this, nodded and told everything he saw.

"When there is an unknown change, can't you even go directly into it... This is a bit beyond my expectation." Laplace pondered for a moment: "The girl was reborn, absorbed the life energy of the rose, and finally entered the house. The rose binds the house. It sounds a little far-fetched, but I believe it."

The more outrageous this situation was, the more Laplace believed it.What's more, the long whip of the crystal creation outside has also grown a big Mary rose, which seems to be a testimony to the girl's rebirth through the rose.

"It seems that the unknown change started with this girl?" Laplace murmured in a low voice, "Could it be that the 1% progress that I haven't explored before should also be on her?"

Although Angel also said that the balloons with human heads on the gate of the rose garden have also undergone surprising changes, but those balloons with human heads did not affect the external image of the crystal creation.

If it is based on the image change of the crystal creation, the focus is still on the girl and the rose.

Laplace fell into long-term contemplation. As a witness of Helen's dream, she was very concerned about the unfinished 1% exploration rate.

In Angel's view, this is a dungeon, or secret room, that is a first-time contact with game planning, and she will never give up without solving all the questions.

Thinking about it, it actually makes some sense. Laplace's body stays in the sea of ​​empty mirrors all year round, and it can be regarded as a deep house.Even if Laplace will open the blind box in the Sea of ​​Mirrors to watch the memories of various worlds flowing into the Sea of ​​Mirrors, but watching is just watching, and it is the first time to experience it personally.

Switching from the perspective of God to the perspective of the player, the feeling must be different.

God’s perspective can overlook everything condescendingly, and solving puzzles is just a child’s play in the eyes of God’s perspective; but from the player’s perspective, one must step by step, look for clues in the “memory” bit by bit, and finally find a way to conquer this “memory”. memory copy".

Laplace became a player for the first time, but still wanted to play from the perspective of God, and it would be like this: itchy heart, unable to let go.

This kind of entanglement is not perfectionism at present, it can only be said to be the inevitable result of the change of perspective.

While Laplace was meditating, the whip-shaped crystal creation... Oh, no, it should be called the Rose Whip now, and it was slowly becoming blurred.

Apparently, it also follows the law of the power of Dreamwalking Wonderland, as long as it is not triggered, it will automatically hide.

After hiding, how to find and trigger them?

You know, the crystal creations that were hidden before are not limited to rose whips, and the sky is full of crystal creations. Where are they hiding now?

Seeing that Laplace remained silent for a long time, Angel simply changed his perspective to God's perspective.

I plan to look at the current Dream Crystal from a macro perspective, and look for those hidden crystal creations.

The first thing Angor looked at was naturally the vicinity of his current location.

Whether it was the surface of the crystal source or the underground world below the crystal source, Angel did not see any crystal creations...or in other words, these crystal creations were integrated with the crystal source itself.

This is hard to find.

It's like a drop of water melted into the sea. It's very difficult to find crystals with the same essence as crystals in a world full of crystals.

If they couldn't find it nearby, Angel expanded the range.

In the past, it was to examine a certain area in detail, but now Angel is directly looking for it from the most macroscopic point of view.This search really made him discover an unusual place.

And this place, not far from the safe zone and the Forest of Memory, is exactly the corpse mountain where those monsters were before.

Today, the corpses on the corpse mountain have completely disappeared.

But what replaced it was a huge crystal mountain that was so huge that it could reach the sky.

If it's just a crystal mountain, there's nothing worth talking about. Maybe it's possible that the crystal mountain was formed because of too much movement in the previous "Creation Controversy".

But Angel paid attention to it, not only because of the crystal mountain, but because of this extremely steep mountain with cut walls that pierces into the sky, there is actually a mountain path.

Although it is not as fine as artificially made, there is a winding mountain road from the foot of the mountain to the top.

This is really strange.

Just imagine, a mountain with a height of nearly [-] meters has a road from the plain to the top of the mountain that is not cut off at all. Isn't it strange?
When Angel set his sights on the crystal mountain, a message came from the power tree.

According to the information, Angel can enter the observation mode of this crystal mountain into a dreamland!
However, two conditions also need to be met: first, touch the crystal mountain; second, activate the power of Dreamwalking Wonderland.

Angor is now in the perspective of God, and his body must not be able to touch the crystal mountain... However, there is no way, with the power tree in hand, Angel is now half the master of the dream crystal.

Some of the previous powers can also be used, and the manipulable range of the "celestial phenomenon change" power has become larger.

Angel's method is to use the power of the celestial phenomena to engulf the breath of the nightmare world in the underground world from the cracks in the ground.Combined with the breath of the nightmare world and the change of celestial phenomena, a phantom hand was released.

The condition of touching the crystal mountain, to put it bluntly, is the perception of the breath of the nightmare world.

The phantom hand itself is a nightmare trick, and it can also be used as an extension of Angel's body.

Therefore, when Angel manipulated the phantom hand and touched the crystal mountain, the first condition was successfully met.Immediately afterwards, Angor activated the power of Dreamwalking Wonderland.

As the two conditions are met at the same time, Angel can clearly perceive that his consciousness is floating, and he has traveled countless distances in an instant, and came to the outside of the crystal mountain.

Then, consciousness slowly sank into the crystal mountain...

The new Little Garden appeared in front of Angel.

However, what surprised Angel was that even if he entered the inside of Little Garden and his perspective could be stretched at will, he still didn't find any difference between Crystal Mountain and the outside.

The same mountain, the same mountain road, no monsters as imagined, and no other abnormalities.

How is this going?

If this is not a special dream, then why can you enter the Hakoba perspective by activating the power of Dreamwalking Wonderland?If it was a special dream, why didn't it change at all?

Angel couldn't figure it out, maybe...you can only know if you go and see it yourself.

Just when Angel was thinking about the crystal mountain, Laplace nearby finally woke up from his contemplation.

"Gone."

Angel opened his eyes when he heard Laplace's voice.But Laplace looked at the empty mid-air and murmured in a low voice.

"You mean the whip? As long as you don't activate it, it will gradually blur and disappear. I don't know where it will go in the end." Angel said.

As soon as Angel finished speaking, Laplace said flatly, "I know where it is."

Angor: "Huh?!"

Laplace: "When it disappeared, I got some information again."

"Is there any information after leaving Helen's Dream?" Angel was also surprised. The power of this wonderland is too "humanized", and it even has after-sales service?
Laplace nodded, and told the information he got——

"The special dream "Helen's Dream" has a linkage change, which is combined with "Bira's Sweet Dream"."

"The special dream "Helen's Dream" has been changed to "The Carnival of the Gluttonous"."

"Exploration progress reset."

"Everyone who clears "Helen's Dream" will enter the "Greedy" hunting list."

"All rewards obtained in "Helen's Dream" will be doubled in the special dream "Carnival of the Gluttonous"."

"The hunting of the "Glutton" will start after the three-hour countdown ends, and the countdown will still count when you are offline."

"The current countdown is 02:59:59"

"The current countdown is 02:59:58"

"..."

"The current countdown is 02:55:50"

After Laplace finished all the information, the countdown had reached 2 hours and 55 minutes.

It is precisely because Laplace can always perceive the countdown that she said: She knows where she is.

Because the countdown is over, the special dream "Greedy Carnival" will take the initiative to hunt Laplace.Once the glutton comes, the corresponding special dream will inevitably appear, and then the rose whip that carries the special dream will also appear.

Moreover, according to the rhetoric in the message: the countdown is still counted after offline.

In other words, as long as Laplace is offline for more than three hours, when she goes online, no matter where she is, she will immediately face the attack of the rose whip.

It sounds like a life-threatening entanglement.

However, when Laplace said these words, not only did he not have any fear, but he also had a hint of expectation.

After hearing the news from Laplace, Angel had only one thought:
This glutton is really... Tired of life.

If other ordinary people came to attack Helen's Dream, and the failure led to the appearance of "Greedy Carnival", they would definitely be scared if they were on the hunting list.

Because their strength is not enough.

But Laplace is different. After activating the shedding state, as long as the supplies of the shedding can keep up, even if she kills official wizard-level monsters, it will be like mowing grass.

Faced with such a monster, the glutton wants to hunt?Stop dreaming
Angel was naturally not worried about Laplace's safety, but then again, in the message Laplace said, aside from the follow-up pursuit, he mentioned a very interesting word.

—— Linkage changes.

Before, Helen's dream was that an unknown change was about to take place.

It is now confirmed that this "unknown change" is a "linked change".

The word "linkage" in "linkage change" is very subtle and very graphic.

Helen's dream is Helen's dream.

Bila's sweet dream is probably the dream of a person named Bila when she fell asleep.

The linkage between these two dreams led to the new dream: "The Carnival of the Glutton".

"So these special dreams can also be linked?" Angel said softly: "But, who is Bila?"

"Billa is that fat girl." Laplace said, "It's the daughter of the owner of the house that appeared in Helen's dream."

Angel: "That girl who was used as fertilizer for roses?"

Laplace nodded: "I saw her portrait in the corridor. Her name is written next to it."

Although Laplace didn't know many words in Helen's Dream, some of the names in the portraits in the corridor were standard common words.It is estimated that Helen, the dream maker, has the most memorable words, so these names were completely reproduced in the dream.

Angel originally thought that Bila was an alien dream, but now it seems that this Bila is still the villain in the story of Helen's Dream...

"In this way, there are two dreams that are internally connected, and they are linked... Is this an established rule for linkage, or can they be linked unconditionally?"

The former is like in a play called "Super Dimensional Warlock", the protagonist is Angel, but if Sanders appears in this play, it will not violate the harmony.

As for the latter, the so-called unconditional linkage is also exemplified by the drama "Super-Dimensional Warlock". The protagonist is Angel, but Harry Potter appears in this drama, which is very inconsistent.

However, even if it violates the agreement, it will not affect the essence of the word "linkage".

Just like in "The Sound of the Tide in the Night", the author arranged for Turas to kill the legendary pirate Redbeard. After the novel was published, no readers questioned it—including one of the protagonists, Turas himself.But in fact, when Turas dominated the sea in the extreme east, the red beard hadn't even been born yet, so how could it be related?
The author rounded up the flaws of this story in "The Sound of the Tide in the Magic Night". Similarly, if the "special dream planning" can also make up for the flaws, Helen's dream can be linked to Monkey King's dream.

In Jon's words, this is the so-called: cross-border linkage.

Angel is also concerned about the linkage of this special dream, must there be an internal connection, or can it be linked across borders?

If it can be linked across borders, maybe it was an ordinary person's dream, but the dream of a god was linked across borders, so wouldn't the difficulty of this dungeon be against the sky?

Laplace: "It's not a problem. Go through a few more special dreams, and the answer will be self-evident."

Angel is right when he thinks about it, there is no need to ask for a deeper understanding now.As Laplace said, with more experience, many problems will not be problems.

What's more, he still holds the powerful tree of power in his hand, and it is feasible to slowly interpret the dreamland.

Thinking of this, Angel stopped worrying about the linkage issue, but looked at Laplace: "What are your plans next?"

Laplace: "Are you asking about the killing order of the glutton? If it is a hunting order, I will wait for her to come. I want to see if I can find the previous 1% from her hunting down." Where is the difference?"

Angel: "...No, I don't mean this. I mentioned it before, have you ever thought about taking on any authority?"

Laplace: "I have thought about it, and I have some intentions, but I plan to make a decision after I ask Gleipnir for astrology."

Every time Laplace mentions his body, Angel especially wants to ask, you think you are alone by default, and now you can't contact each other in Dream Crystal, is this a person?

However, Angor moved his mouth, but he didn't say anything in the end, because Laplace answered the same every time, and every time he answered, he would show disdainful eyes, and he could probably guess what Laplace said. Responded, so no need to blame yourself.

Angor: "In that case, are you going to see the Forest of Memory now? I mean, the Forest of Memory in Dream Crystal."

"You brought the Forest of Memory in? Then the spider monster from before..."

Angel: "It was swallowed up by the Forest of Memory. Without a clearer, the Crystal Field of Dreams is completely safe now."

Laplace knew that Angor must have concealed something, but this was not important to Laplace.Since she chose to support Angel's decision, there's no need to delve deeper into the things that Angel has voluntarily concealed.
"Okay, let's go and have a look." Laplace nodded, and decided to visit the Forest of Memory.After all, the Forest of Memory involves laws, and she also wants to see the difference between the Forest of Memory in Dream Crystal and the Forest of Memory in reality.

"So we have to go offline first?" Laplace has already seen a little way of using Angel's power.

Angor nodded.

Laplace decisively withdrew from the Crystal Field of Dreams.

Angel followed suit.

When they opened their eyes in the reflection space, Laplace did not immediately accept Angel's invitation to enter the Dream Crystal Field, but asked: "The Dream Crystal Field should also be the same as what you said. Like the wilderness of dreams, let others go in?"

Angel: "Yes."

Laplace: "Then I want my time body to go in with me, is that okay?"

Since they are your time-bodies, do they count as "other people"?Isn't that you?Angel complained silently in his heart, but he said calmly on the surface: "Yes, you can let your body in. I have a login device here, even if your body is inconvenient to leave in the sea of ​​empty mirrors, you can still see through it." Let it enter through the logger... But I don’t know if the logger will be washed away by the sea of ​​empty mirrors, if so, it’s best not to let the logger enter the sea of ​​empty mirrors.”

Laplace said lightly: "I am the main body."

Here it comes again... Angel suppressed the desire to complain, and said, "I'm talking about the body of the Sea of ​​Empty Mirrors."

Laplace: "I am the body of the Sea of ​​Mirrors."

You can tell from the shape of the scales that you are not the real body!
Laplace may have seen the thoughts in Angel's mind, and he rarely explained: "My current body itself is transformed from the body consciousness. The evidence is that when I entered the dream crystal field, my body consciousness Also asleep."

"It is precisely because it is the main body that I can exert the full effect of shedding scales."

If it is not the ontology that enters the dream crystal, but the time body: Luigi or Gleipnir.

Then, the body in the sea of ​​empty mirrors will not sleep deeply.

Moreover, even if Luigi and Gleipnir could use Sheltered Scale in the Crystal Field of Dreams, they would not be able to exert their full effectiveness.

Angel: "I see..." No wonder.Angel only vaguely understands the difference between the so-called noumenon and time body, but if Laplace calls the time body "self" again, Angel probably will get confused again.

"Since you agreed, I'll let Shishen come here now." After finishing speaking, Laplace closed his eyes, and through the mirror in the thinking space, connected with Shishen.

When Laplace contacted Shishen, Angel stepped aside.

His eyes were set on the pale pink wind not far away.
