Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 658 The Monument of the Strange Ring
Angor gave the Frost Moon Necklace to Sanders.

At present, he stays in the bracelet, and the only thing that has a mysterious meaning is this pendant.Anyway, he couldn't find the mysterious concrete object, so he might as well give it to Sanders to see if he could get the answer from Sanders.

Sanders tried it out, and when the boundless snowfield illusion appeared in the study, he really noticed the mystery hidden in the air for the first time.

However, before looking for the mysterious concrete object, he frowned first.

"Did you think about the purpose when you built this snowfield illusion?"

The purpose of constructing the illusion?Angel shook his head, "I was experimenting with various mysterious figurative objects, which I constructed randomly."

"In other words, you didn't think about any other purpose when you built the illusion?" Sanders asked again.

Angel recalled his thoughts when refining the Frost Moon Pendant, and it seemed that he did not have any other distracting thoughts: "When I first constructed the illusion, the only idea was that the snowfield illusion should give people a feeling of bleakness. Others, Didn't think much of it."

Sanders looked at the snowy illusion in front of him, and repeatedly pondered what Angel called "the feeling of desolation".

In this white and empty snow field, there is a feeling of desolation, but it is not the main axis of this illusion.

Sanders' first impression of this illusion was not that it was cold, but——

The withering of life.

Although the vast snowfield is often a forbidden area for life.But even so, you can still feel faint vitality in the snowfield, such as the seedlings hidden under the snowfield waiting for the next spring, the slow-moving fish under the ice lake, and the plants that stick to their essence despite the severe cold... These are all It's the life on the snowfield, but Sanders didn't feel it in the illusion created by Angor.

It was too lifeless.

But Angel himself said that when constructing this illusion, he didn't actually set the tone for it, so why did he feel that this illusion has another theme, and it still uses "the melody of death" as the theme of the illusion?

Sanders doesn't know for the time being, but he vaguely feels that maybe this is the main reason why the mysterious figurative objects cannot be found in the snowy illusion.

Sanders continued to search for the mysterious figurative objects in the snowy illusion. Angel originally wanted to talk to him about the performance of other mysterious figurative objects, but Sanders kept thinking.Instead of disturbing Sanders, he exited the illusion alone, returned to his bedroom, and refined the "monument valley exclusive illusion" promised to Sanders.

Since it was going to be refined for Sanders, Angor naturally didn't dare to neglect, and he began to rack his brains from the perspective of appearance design and style positioning.

Sanders is a typical veteran aristocrat. According to Angel's thinking, it should be almost enough to refine things such as walking sticks and accessories directly according to the preferences of traditional aristocrats.

But when I think about it later, Sanders and Greia are still different.

Greya has her own pursuit of the refined appearance - exaggerated luxury.Therefore, when Angel was refining, he didn't consider whether the appearance should have any connection with the inner illusion. He only needed to make the appearance more luxurious.

However, if it were Sanders, with his personality, he shouldn't like things that are different from the outside, right?

For example, he refined a gorgeous obsidian cane, and it turned out that the illusion attached to it was a puzzle game.No matter how you look at it, how awkward it is.

Angel thought for a while, but ruled out this idea, and decided to refine a shape that matches "Monument Valley".

After playing the small game of Monument Valley, Angel found that at the end of each small chapter, the protagonist Ada would return a corresponding geometry from the hat.Regardless of the obscure plot, the gameplay of the entire game is based on the theme of "geometry" and "contradictory space".

So, after thinking for a while, Angel decided to refine a shape that combined the concepts of "contradiction" and "geometry".This compares well with the illusion of Monument Valley.

Combining the concepts of contradiction and geometry, strange patterns emerged in Angel's mind.

Such as Penrose ladder, Klein bottle, Escher cube, Penrose triangle, etc...

Of course, there are many other geometric patterns like the Black Forest Illusion, Blind Spot Offset, Demon Tuning Fork, etc.But because of the difficulty of construction and the difference between plane and three-dimensional, Angor eliminated them one by one, leaving only a few patterns in the end.

Among these patterns, Angel's final choice is .

- Möbius ring.

This is a pattern that very well represents the concept of geometry. At the same time, it is very similar to the overall painting style of Monument Valley, and this pattern alone can remind people of many things about geometry and mathematics.

Although the construction pattern has been determined, it seems that it is not necessarily beautiful to make a Mobius ring directly.

Angel thought about it, and decided to wrap a transparent geometry outside the Mobius ring, and finally make it into an ornament.

With a clear idea, Angel could refine it very quickly.

It takes less than two hours to determine the refined shape, to select materials, and finally to produce the finished product.

The Mobius ring is quietly suspended in the transparent rhombus with crystal blue lines, and a corner of the rhombus is used as a support point to make a base.

On the whole, this ornament looks complicated, but the finished product is simple and clear, and at first glance, it can make people feel a sense of distance and amazement in geometry and mathematics.

Moreover, its shape is diamond-shaped, which looks like a "monument", which is similar to Monument Valley.

Angel was very satisfied with this ornament, and carved his exclusive logo on the base.

As for the name of this ornament, Angel originally wanted to call it the Mobius Ring, but Mobius is not from the wizarding world, and it would be troublesome to explain. He thought about it and decided to use "Strange Ring Monument" as the name. its name.

After refining the Monument of the Strange Ring, Angel had nothing else to do. He didn't know what was going on with Sanders, and he couldn't bother him in the past, so he simply continued to accumulate the foundation needed for the Eye of Narda Come.

tick tick-

On the wall clock on the wall, the minute hand is shifting a little bit.When the minute hand made one revolution and the hour hand moved one frame, Sanders' voice came from Angel's ear.

"Come to the study."

For some reason, Angel felt that Sanders' voice seemed to suppress some kind of emotion, which gave him a strange feeling.

After arriving in the study, Sanders had already put away the Snowy Illusion. He was sitting at the desk, quickly recording something with the pen in his hand.The Frost Moon Pendant was hung on the Falcon Demon Ornament that Angel had refined.

"Sit down first, wait for me for a moment." Sanders said quickly without raising his head.

While Sanders was writing furiously, Angor's gaze was once again on the falcon demon ornament.In fact, from his current point of view, this falcon demon ornament is not too delicate, it seems a bit rough.

But Sanders seems to like it very much, and has been on the desk and never removed.

It seems that Sanders really loves the falcon demon deeply.

Angel was thinking, how about refining a falcon demon ornament another day?After all, if other wizards came to Sanders' study, they would see how much the price of this ornament would drop.

Angel had even constructed a pattern of the falcon demon in his mind. At this moment, Sanders finally put down his pen.

Angel was stunned by his first words when he raised his head.

"Remember, don't arbitrarily integrate the mysterious power into the illusion in the future."

Sanders' expression was so solemn that Angel unconsciously put away his frivolous attitude.

"After the mysterious figurative object is identified, it will instantly burst out a huge flow of information to surround you, right?" Sanders did not explain the previous sentence, but asked Angel.

"Yes." Angel nodded, suddenly he remembered something, and looked at Sanders in surprise: "Mentor, have you found the mysterious concrete object in the snowy illusion?"

Sanders did not answer, but directly picked up the Frost Moon Necklace with mental power and put it in Angel's hand.

"See for yourself."

When the Snowfield Illusion restarted, although it was still a vast white snowfield, Angel no longer felt any mystery.Apparently, Sanders found the mysterious figurative object.

"Teacher, what is the mysterious object in the snowy illusion? Could it be some snow slag?" Angel asked curiously.

"You can feel for yourself whether there is any change in the snowy illusion."

With this question in mind, Angel felt the illusion of the snowfield again... The snowfield is vast, with a few snowflakes falling from time to time, which seems to be the same as not long ago, except that there is no mystery.

No, Angel suddenly frowned.

There is a little difference, it seems that the Snowfield Illusion looks a little more alive than before, not so lifeless?

Angel told his findings, but he was not sure if he was right.Even if the Snowfield Illusion is a little less lifeless, it shouldn't have anything to do with the mystery, right?

Saunders: "Of course it does. The missing thing is the mysterious figurative thing you've been looking for so hard."

Angel was stunned, didn't he feel a little less lifeless?
Could it be that this lifeless feeling is actually a mysterious concrete object?This is incredible, right? A feeling can be turned into a mysterious concrete object?
"You're wrong. It's not a feeling, it's a concept. The mysterious concrete object is a concept called 'withering'." While speaking, Sanders suddenly raised his hand, and ripples of energy emerged from his palm.

In the blink of an eye, Angel felt a lifeless breath.

The destination of this energy ripple is a fragrant pandan on the balcony. When the energy ripple touches the pandan, the flowers wither and the grass leaves turn yellow immediately.

"This is……"

"This is withering." Sanders closed his eyes, and said after a while: "It's also the reason why I asked you to remember to carefully integrate the mysterious meaning into the illusion, because this withering technique is the one that I learned from the mysterious figurative object. learned from it.”
