Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 3454 Star Spirit World

"The shadow of billions of silent planets...?"

Angel whispered and repeated Gleipnir's words.

There are two key words in this sentence, which made Angel very concerned.

"Hundreds of millions" seems to be an extremely large quantity, which is hardly used in normal times.

Angel paid attention to this word because it was used in the first sentence of the prologue of "Book of the Starry Sky"-"I bring billions of protoss with me to provide assistance to those who use the power of the starry sky." .”

Angel did not believe that Gleipnir would mention such a large number that is difficult to understand.

It definitely has a deep connection to The Starry Sky Book.

The second word that Ingres paid attention to is "planet".

In other words, the concept of "planet" made Angel very concerned.

If it is the universe in Jon's hometown, almost everyone understands the concept of "planet", which is a huge celestial body in the universe.

It is even said that Jon's hometown, the earth, is essentially a planet.

But the concept of "planet" does not exist in the wizarding world.

If Graipnir hadn't mentioned the "planet" today, Angel would never have thought that there would be a "planet" in the universe they were in.

"Or, I misunderstood, this planet is not that planet?" Angel thought to himself.

Angel himself definitely couldn't figure out this problem by "thinking", so he didn't continue to do useless work, and directly asked his inner doubts.

"What do billions and billions of planetary shadows mean?" Angel asked, "What kind of concept is a planet?"

A few seconds later, there was a response from Gleipnir.

"What kind of concept is a planet? I don't know, because I have never seen it. I can only summarize what I understand from the few words left in some books about the astral world... Planets. "

Gleipnir pondered for a moment, and began to talk about the "planet" in her understanding.

Along with her narration, Angel also gradually understood a secret that he had never heard of in the southern region.

——Astral World.

According to the classification of worlds, the Astral World is actually similar to the Mirror Realm, Dream World, Soul Plane...etc. It is a special world.

Its power can cover the boundless plane.

In almost any world, as long as there is night, as long as there is light, and the weather is suitable for watching, you can look up at the sky and see the diffuse starry sky.

This endless starry sky is related to the projection of the astral world.

The astral world can project the starry sky to all worlds, and from this we can also know that it is a special world.

What kind of world is the star spirit world?Gleipnir hadn't been, she didn't know.But through the records in many classics, she roughly made up some general situation of the astral world.

The star spirit world is full of dark voids.

In the dark void, there is no sound, no air, no life, no light source... nothing, just like a depressing void.

However, the astral world is not only dark and empty.

And billions and billions of planets.

The "hundreds of millions" here is not a specific number, but a general reference to the number of endless planets in the astral world.

If you want to change the word, you can use "innumerable" to express the number of planets.

It's just that "innumerable" can't express the shocking feeling of that kind of number, so there is such a clear number as "hundreds of millions" as a synonym.

These billions and billions of planets are floating in the dark void of the astral world.

Every planet is as huge as a world.

They are illuminated by the luminous planet, showing bright light and shadow, which are projected into the real world.

This became... the starry sky.

Gleipnir: "This is the planet I know, and that's all I can sum up from the auspicious feathers in those classics."

Simply put, it is a huge celestial body made of unknown matter floating in a dark void.

And every planet is as big as the world. ——This is also recorded in the books, but whether it is so big, Gleipnir has never seen it with her own eyes, and she doesn't know.

After listening to Gleipnir's narration, Angel felt his scalp go numb.

Because, how similar is this so-called dark void to the cosmic void that Jon once described?
The cosmic void refers to the place outside the fibrous structure of galaxies in the universe, where there is only the darkness of eternal night and the boundless silence.

To put it in a more vernacular language, it means that when you look up at the starry sky, the large black curtain of the bright stars is removed.

These are cosmic voids, which are far away from the stars.

In the cosmic void, there are only dim stars and very, very few galaxies.

The above is the observation of the universe by the people on earth as told by Jon.

And Gleipnir's so-called dark void, from a certain perspective, is actually very similar to the cosmic void.

Moreover, the countless planets floating in the void seem to have some connection with the universe observed by the people on Earth?
Thinking of this, Angel suddenly had a guess.

Is the world Jon lives in really another universe?

Could it be that the universe on the other side actually refers to the astral world?
Further deduction, will the earth exist in the astral world?
If this guess is correct, wouldn't there be a new sign for Jon to find his way home!

Angel only felt that the emotions in his heart began to swell, and those thoughts that had been silent for a long time also began to slowly become active.

Forcibly suppressing the joy in his heart, Angel took a deep breath and asked, "You said just now that each of those planets is as big as the world, so... are there really living people on these planets?"

Gleipnir: "Of course it exists, because only planets with living creatures will be born with protoss."

Protoss?Angel frowned, what is this?
Gleipnir: "Protoss, you can understand it as world consciousness. But it is a little different from world consciousness. World consciousness has no intelligence, it is a collection of countless consciousnesses; but Protoss is spiritual. , they can even turn into intelligent beings."

In ancient times, Protoss was also known as Planetary Consciousness, which is why it can be compared with World Consciousness.

But now, the planetary consciousness has been renamed "Protoss".

Because the "protoss" themselves don't like the name "planetary consciousness". Compared with the planetary consciousness, they are more like the planet becoming a spirit, so they call it...the protoss.

After listening to Gleipnir's explanation this time, Angor felt that his brain seemed to be overloaded again and became negative.

Protoss?Is this Gaia consciousness?

If the protoss can only be born on a planet with living people, then if the earth is in the astral world, the earth should also have a protoss?

But Jon never mentioned that there are any protoss on the earth.

Even the concept of "Gaia Consciousness" is just a legend on the earth and has never been proven.

Could it be that his conjecture was wrong, the earth is not actually in the astral world?Isn't the astral world the so-called earth universe?

Angel thought for a while and asked, "Do people who live on the planet know the existence of Protoss?"

Gleipnir nodded: "Of course I know, even outsiders like us can know the existence of the protoss, and they will definitely know."

"It is said that the Protoss will guide the intelligent creatures on the planet. You can even understand that the Protoss is their king."

Hearing this, Angel became less and less confident about the answer "Earth is in the Astral World".

If the Protoss will guide civilization forward, the people on earth must know the Protoss, but whether it is the holographic tablet or Jon's narration, the Protoss has never been mentioned in advance.

Therefore, the guess that the earth is in the astral world began to waver slowly.

However, Angel still did not give up completely. After thinking about it, he asked two more questions: "Do humans exist in the Astral World? How can I go to the Astral World?"

Because Jon is a human being, if there is human civilization in the astral world, the probability of the earth being in the astral world will increase.

However, Gleipnir's answer made Angel very disappointed: "Human civilization is a unique existence. I have never heard of human civilization in the astral world. Even if there is one that looks like human beings, its essence And definitely not human."

"For example, the shadow royal family of the Changhuo clan, except for their darker skin, they look no different from humans. Are they human? No."

"The internal structure of their bodies is completely different from that of humans. They can only be called humanoids."

In the astral world, there may be humanoid civilizations, but human civilizations definitely do not exist.

This answer lowered the speculation that "the earth is in the astral world" again.

Because, Sanders once checked Jon. Although Jon was rejected by the world consciousness of the wizarding world, he was undoubtedly human from soul to physical structure.

"As for how to go to the astral world..." Gleipnir shook his head lightly: "No one knows."

Angel: "Isn't the astral world a special world? Why does no one know how to enter the astral world?"

Gleipnir sighed and said, "The Astral World is different from other special worlds. We only know of its existence, but we have no way to enter it."

"It's an absolutely closed world."

Angel frowned and said, "However, you just said that the Protoss itself is dissatisfied with the title of 'planetary consciousness' adopted by humans, so they have the name Protoss. Doesn't that mean that there is a way to get in touch with it?" Protoss?"

Since one can contact the star spirits, how come there is no way to enter the star spirit world?
Gleipnir's answer shocked Angel once again.

"The protoss can be projected from the astral world. They can exist in the form of projections in reality." Gleipnir: "However, their projections are not active projections, but require someone to project them. call."

Speaking of this, Gleipnir also revealed a secret that Angel had never heard of.

"By the way, it is said that some summoning wizards in the source world can summon star spirits. The summoned star spirits have the power of stars and are stronger than many demon creatures summoned from other worlds."

"And these summoners who can summon star spirits to fight are also called... star spirit warlocks."

"A lot of secrets about the astral world came from the astral warlocks. Including the author of "Book of the Starry Sky"—Son of the Stars, it is said that he is an astral warlock."

"Of course, apart from the Protoss Warlock, the Son of the Star may also be the Starfaller."

Angor was still digesting the summoner profession "Protoss Warlock" which he had heard for the first time one second before, and captured a new word "Starfaller" the next second.

The mouth is faster than the brain, and Angel didn't even think about it, so he subconsciously asked, "What is the Starfaller?"

Gleipnir: "It is the creatures who left the astral world and came to the present world. They were originally creatures of the astral world, but now they have entered the present world, and they are called star descenders."

Angel's eyes moved: "The Starfaller is also a projection, just like the Protoss summoned by the Protoss Warlock?"

Gleipnir denies: "No, they have real bodies."

real body?Angel hadn't recovered from his senses at first, but when he thought about this sentence carefully, he immediately realized: "You mean, the star descendants come from the astral world? Since they can leave from the astral world, then... ..."

Before Angor finished speaking, Gleipnir interrupted: "I know what you want to say, since the Starfaller can leave the Astral World, there must be a way to enter the Astral World."

Angor nodded.

If there is a way to leave, there must be a way to enter.This is the situation of two sides of one body, just like light and shadow, where there is light, there must be shadow.

Gleipnir: "Indeed, many people think that if there are starfallers, there must be starrisers. Unfortunately, so far, there is no news to prove that there is a way to enter the astral world."

"Even the summoned star spirit projection said that the star spirit world cannot be entered."

"The Star Spirit World, at least until now, is still just a special world that can only be exited but cannot be entered."

"Only out, not in..." Angel repeated this conclusion in a low voice, but he still didn't believe it in his heart.

In his view, the astral world is similar to the former Quest world, which is the soul plane.

In the past, the world of Quest was also considered a one-way ticket, and only after the death of a living person, he could enter it by turning into an undead.However, with the development and innovation of soul power, powerful undead descended from the world of Quest, and living people also have ways to enter the world of Quest.

Especially the wizards of the soul system, they have many powerful spells, and they must go to the world of Quest to practice successfully.

Therefore, although only a few people can enter Quest World, it is still much better than the "one-way ticket" thought in the past.

In the same way, Angel felt that the same might be true of the Astral World.

Now the consensus on the star spirit world is: only exit but not enter.

But that's just now.

With the research on the astral world, there may be a way to enter it in the future.It is even possible that at this moment in an unknown place that they don't know, someone has already researched a method to enter the astral world.
