Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 3754 Dark Corner Intelligence
Dark Corner is such a wonderland copy that has already "landed". As long as certain prerequisites are met, it can land at any time.

And through the retrieved information, the opening condition of the dark corner, or its prerequisite, is——

Find a way to get into the dark corners in Modern City.

At the same time, when the Dark Corner dungeon is opened, the Dream Crystal will not display the dungeon entrance, and there will be no crystal creations outside the dungeon.

If you want to enter the "Dark Corner" copy, you can only enter the Modern City first.

Enter the dark corner through the modern city.

It can be understood that "dark corners" belong to the copy within the copy.

Not only is the entrance to the dungeon in Modern City, but some of the tasks in Dark Corner are closely related to Modern City. If the raider is not familiar with Modern City, it is almost impossible to gain anything in Dark Corner.

Dark Corner and Modern City are closely linked and have a great correlation.

Seeing this, Angel finally understood why he couldn't find the dark corner when he used the God's perspective in Modern City before.

because……

The Dark Corner is currently a hidden copy. You need to complete the opening conditions first and let this copy "land" before you can see the situation inside.

As for the method of opening the dark corner, Angel guessed that it was most likely related to the mission "The Disappearing Knight".

Of course, Modern City is so big that there should be other tasks pointing to the method of opening the dark corner.

But what is certain is that "The Lost Knight" is definitely one of them.

At this time, Ingres also thought of Sisley’s second-stage mission: "The Clown's Knot".

The objectives of this task are as follows:
"Find a way to find the mysterious child in the dark corner (grey cannot be activated) / Search for the secrets in the dark corner and take revenge on the Fashion Guild (choose one of the two, you can complete the task by completing either one)"

When Angor saw this mission objective before, he thought that Wonderland Power was making a joke. Since the first objective was "grey and cannot be activated", why bother listing it?

It now appears that the reason why the first option of this task is grayed out and cannot be enabled is because the dark corners are not turned on.

Once Vignette is enabled and a way to enter it is found, the first option of this quest is possible to complete.

It can also be seen from the mission "The Joker's Knot" that Dark Corner and Modern City are closely related, and the missions are in a state of entanglement with each other.

In addition to knowing that Vignette is a "fairyland within a fairyland", Ingres also saw some basic information about Vignette:

“Dark corners: If the real world is a running program, then dark corners are the discordant loopholes in this program. People often get stuck in loopholes for some strange reasons. For example, when you turn around, you find that the surroundings have changed drastically, or there is an alley on the way home, or there is a door leading to an unknown place in the basement. Once such abnormal phenomena occur, please stay away, because it may be related to dark corners.”

"Message 1: Vignette is different from the real world. There may be abnormal physical rules and scenes."

"Message 2: There are various dangerous entities and traps in the dark corners, please be careful to identify and avoid them."

"Message 3: There are various puzzles in the dark corners. Explorers who solve the corresponding puzzles will get clues to the "supply room" and "exit". If you want to survive in the dark corners, please try to solve the puzzles."

"Information 4: The Dark Corner is the birthplace of fashion monsters. The fashion monsters captured here have a higher chance of appearing in special forms. But unlike in reality, the fashion monsters here have the ability to directly attack your body."

"Message 5: Humans may occasionally appear in dark corners, but please do not trust them, because there is a high probability that their bodies have been taken over by unknown creatures..."

"Message Six: ..."

"..."

The basic information retrieved also gave Ingres a basic understanding of dark corners.

The dark corner seems to be an existence similar to the "other world".

This "other world" is filled with all kinds of abnormal rules and entities, and encountering them would be extremely dangerous.

At the same time, there are puzzles in the dark corners that will give clues after being solved, various fashionable monsters, and humans who have been possessed by unknown entities.

Just by listening, it feels like there are risks in the dark corners.

Compared to the peaceful world of Modern City that floats on splendor and order, Dark Corner is completely another extreme.

Ordinary explorers are advised not to enter dark corners.

Because once you enter a dark corner, you are in danger at all times, and it will be difficult to relax the tension.

Moreover, if you can't find the "exit", you won't be able to leave the dark corner without completing the level.

Being locked up in Uriel's courtyard for 24 hours like Luigi was would not be dangerous; but imagine being locked up in a dark corner full of dangers for 24 hours, what would you do?
You could be on the verge of collapse at any moment.

In some ways, the "Dark Corner" dungeon is even more dangerous than the "World Grinding Day".

The only good thing is that the entrance to the Dark Corner is in the Modern City, and you need to complete the pre-task before you can enter the Dark Corner. This pre-task has blocked a large number of explorers.

Therefore, from the perspective of the impact on new residents, Dark Corner is still much better than World Grinding Day.

But then again.

High risk means high reward.

Although Angel did not directly find out the drops from Dark Corner from the basic information, he was very familiar with the power of the fairyland. If it "copies", it will definitely "copy" the whole set, and it advocates a certain "fairness" principle.

The more dangerous it is, the more likely it is that excellent fairyland abilities and props will appear.

Just look at "Message Four" and you will know.

In the modern city, special forms of fashion monsters are few and far between.

But in the dark corners, there are many special forms of fashion monsters. This is actually a kind of "balance". The dark corners are very dangerous, so the fairyland power will provide certain conveniences in other aspects.

Similarly, for a mission like "The Clown's Knot", the reward for completing the option "Find the mysterious child in the dark corner" should be better than the other option.

If you look at it this way.

Before entering the dark corner, you may want to take on more dark corner-related tasks to maximize your benefits.

……

Although he did not get any more in-depth information, just getting the intelligence about the dark corner was enough to satisfy Angel.

However, before leaving "Sleepwalking in Wonderland" with the fruit of power, Angel planned to retrieve one more piece of information.

This information is: the copy background of Modern City.

In which world does Modern City exist? Is this technologically advanced city somehow related to Jon's hometown?
Angel himself did not find relevant background information in the Modern City, so he decided to see if he could retrieve it directly in the sea of ​​information.

After a while, looking at the sea of ​​information that had already created huge waves, Angel silently withdrew his thoughts from the fruit of power.

Unfortunately, this background information cannot be retrieved at this time.

Returning to the perspective of the Power Tree, Angel looked at the fruit representing the power of the fairyland. It was still emitting a shining light, but the fruit itself was shaking violently.

Obviously, the search just now caused the Fruit of Power to enter a certain "information surge" stage.

It is estimated that it will be difficult to dive into the ocean of information again to search in a short period of time.

Angel didn't care. Anyway, he had already fished out a lot of information from the sea of ​​information about the power of the fairyland.

He has completed one of the two tasks he had to accomplish when entering the Power Tree this time.

Now, there is one task left.

Thinking of this, Angel looked towards the treetop at the other end, where a fruit of power was glowing slightly...

Just as Angel was about to immerse his thoughts in the fruit, a faint calling voice suddenly reached his ears.

"Owner……"

Angel opened his eyes.

Turing flew to his side and looked at Angel with concern.

Angel: "You want to ask me something?"

Seeing Angel suddenly open his eyes, Turing was also startled: "I thought the master was asleep..."

Angel: "I fell asleep, so why did you wake me up?"

A shy expression flashed across the small TV.

Ingres sighed, and as he turned his eyes to the table, wanting to see if Turing had created any written objects, he asked, "Tell me, why did you wake me up?"

Turing nodded quickly: "I do have a question I want to ask the master."

"Just ask."

Turing blinked his eyes: "I want to ask, can the creation of words not be bound by words?"

Angel: "???"

Angel didn't quite understand what Turing meant, so he picked up a sun hat that was smaller than a palm from the table.

When you look closely, words appear.

"Mini Sun Hat: This is a mini sun hat in blue and red. It is small in size, unique in shape, and has simple and smooth lines. It is made of lightweight cotton fabric and denim stitching, which is soft and comfortable to the touch. The brim design is like a flying eaves, which is delicate and ingenious and can effectively block the outside sunlight."

As expected of a fashion monster from the modern city, the first creation is also related to clothing matching...

Angel: “Did you make this?”

Turing nodded, and used his tentacles to roll up the hat and put it on top of the small TV.

After wearing this hat, Turing looked even more... stupid.

After a few seconds of silence, Angel said softly, "Very complete description. The hat is also well made and fits your size perfectly. From this point of view, your control over words is already quite good."

This also made Ingres wonder. Since Turing made good use of words, why did he suddenly ask if he could not be bound by words?

Turing muttered in a low voice: "I just feel that it is difficult to express what I want to create with just words..."

Ingres: "Did you want to use 'drawing'? If you use 'drawing', no, because this is a text rule."

Turing shook his head: "It's not a painting, but another kind of text."

Another kind of writing? Does it mean not to use the common language to express it?

Ingres knew the answer to this.

If it is the text rule of the Mysterious Secretary Dragon, then it depends on whether the Mysterious Secretary Dragon agrees or not; but after this text rule is integrated into the Dream Crystal Origin, the power of the Fairyland allows the expression of different texts.

But it is limited to texts with a complete system of inheritance.

Angel pondered for a moment: "Generally speaking, there are two things to pay attention to when creating text: the logic of the text and your personal expression. These two points are indispensable. If the text you master has a complete inheritance system and the internal logic of the text is self-consistent, then you can choose to express it in a text that is more suitable for you."

Hearing this, Turing's eyes suddenly lit up: "Then I will continue to try!"

Turing flew to the table excitedly and started writing new text.

Ingres took a few glances and found that it was indeed written in a completely new language...a language that Ingres had never seen before.

It is written very slowly.

But every word is very standard.

What puzzled Ingres was that this new text did not seem to have too many characters. He had already seen several repeated characters.

Angel shook his head and didn't think much about it.

Whether Turing can succeed in creating something will be known later.

Now, while Turing is still creating, let's go to the Power Tree to complete the remaining task.

Soon, Angel closed his eyes again, and his thoughts sank deep into his mind.

Under the power tree.

Angel's eyes once again turned to the glowing fruit.

The fruit is glowing, which means that this power has been activated and has been used in the Dream Crystal Origin.

But this fruit was not born from the original Dream Crystal, but a power that Angel obtained in the Dream Wilderness.

Its name: Gate of Dreams.

The original effect of this power is: with this power, one can control the location of external objects entering the Dream Wilderness.

But after arriving at the Dream Crystal Origin, its effects were expanded to a certain extent.

The reason why Angel was able to get out of the Modern City dungeon and the main quest did not fail was because of the "Dream Gate".

In other words, with this power, one can enter and exit the dungeon freely to a certain extent.

The main reason why Angel checked this power was because of what Laplace said before.

Laplace was interested in exploring dungeons, but she preferred to explore short and quick dungeons, like the "Glutton's Feast", where she could just push through them right away.

You can enter on the same day and pass the customs on the same day.

Other dungeons, like Uriel's, are too long, and Laplace doesn't want to be imprisoned in such a long dungeon like Luigi.

Angel personally suggested that Laplace could enter the "Modern City" dungeon to explore. After all, this dungeon has the most complete fashion magic energy system currently available.

Ingres could also see that Laplace was moving intentionally.

The only thing that shackles Laplace is that this copy is a long copy.

This also gave Angel an idea: If Laplace could enter and exit the Wonderland dungeon freely like himself, then could he experience various dungeons without restrictions?
So, Angel's second mission of entering the power tree this time appeared.

He wanted to check the compatibility of Laplace's power.

If Laplace and the power of the "Dream Gate" are highly compatible, he doesn't mind delegating the sub-level authority of this power to Laplace.

After all, Laplace had helped him a lot, but Angel had not given Laplace much in return.

In addition, Laplace had not yet decided what power he wanted to possess.

Ingres could only find ways to make up for it in other ways.
