Hidden Corner

 Chapter 343 343 Seal Three

Reality.

Everything slowly became clear before Li Chengyi's eyes.

 He is still standing in the underground testing ground of the company headquarters, surrounded by various instruments for monitoring and maintenance.

 There are special walls and force field blockades on all sides.

Li Chengyi felt that no matter how important it was, it could not be overemphasized.

 The white center of the proving ground.

As soon as his figure appeared, red warning lights flashed around him.

“Warning! An abnormal energy field has entered the test area!”

“Warning! The automatic monitoring system will start cleaning mode.”

"Sir, there is an abnormal energy field around you. Do you need to clear it immediately?" Ai Yueji's voice sounded in Li Chengyi's ears.

  The in-canal headset for communication is back to normal.

Li Chengyi frowned and looked around carefully.

It was then that he discovered that on his left side, there was a skeleton man wearing a white cloak, floating in mid-air, motionless, as if he had not yet reacted to the change of location.

　　‘Ghost! ? ’ He looked stern.

Those with conditioned reflexes must be purified immediately with a radiant force field.

 But suddenly his mind changed.

 “That’s not right!”

“There have been monsters approaching me before, but why can they come out now when they couldn’t come out before!?”

 Looking at the stunned ghost in front of him, Li Chengyi thought for a moment, maybe this is a rare opportunity.

 He has never seen such a thing as a ghost in the real world.

 And now, this thing suddenly appears. Maybe

 He took two steps forward and walked around the ghost.

The ghost is wearing a white cloak, which is covered with traces of time, tatters, chips, holes, and stains. It looks like it hasn't been replaced in many years.

Under the cloak, Li Chengyi reached out and tried to lift it, but found that his fingers penetrated directly through it and could not touch it.

 “In what form does this thing exist in this world?”

 Suddenly, the ghost seemed to react.

　　嗗!

It opened its mouth and made a harsh noise like a blackboard eraser.

Opened his claws and rushed towards the nearest Li Chengyi.

At this moment, a fiery force field covered it and instantly pinned the ghost in the air.

ah!

It screamed, like some kind of bird, its whole body burned up, igniting white flames.

In less than two seconds, the flame went out and turned into a pile of white ash, which fell to the ground.

  “Very weak.”

 Li Chengyi commented in a low voice.

"It's very weak. After all, it's a monster recorded on the lowest level." The door of the testing ground opened slowly.

Syndra walked in slowly, wielding a cane.

"Are you injured?" He saw the broken armor on Li Chengyi's body and a little blood remaining on his body.

“In the capital of the Angel of Death, my difficulty level seems to be different from others.” Li Chengyi nodded, with a solemn look on his face as well.

"After you mentioned this blind spot, I immediately checked the relevant information. And recently, because of our close relationship with the Li family, we have also obtained a lot of confidential information from government departments." Syndra said, "About Angel , I just have something to share with you."

 “Okay!” Li Chengyi knew that Sindra was not someone who made a fuss out of a molehill.

Since he came here specifically, it means that these information are likely to be quite important.

Carefully collecting the white ash that the ghost turned into, the two left the testing site and came to the director's office on the surface.

 In the office, there is a familiar tome of Li Chengyi on the table.

Black, silver edge, the flame pattern in the center of the cover is inlaid with special emerald fragments.

 It just looks gorgeous.

"This is the teachings of the Death Angel Sect. Many years ago, those dead-end people who came out of the Death Angel Capital passed on their beliefs to ordinary people. And these ordinary people gradually formed a sect, the Death Angel Sect. "

Syndra introduced.

Li Chengyi picked it up and looked through it. It was all written in Baixing language. He hadn't had time to learn Baixing language yet, so he only read it when he had time, so he didn't understand most of the words on it.

“The above are all doctrines that persuade people to yearn for death. The main purpose of this sect is to tell people that there are different differences in death.

 The more grand, important and gorgeous the death, the more it will be appreciated by the angels of death and enter the Kingdom of Death.

Because they resist suicide and believe that giving up life is a sign of cowardice and inferior souls, when they first appeared, they greatly reduced the suicide rate in many countries.

 This also led to them becoming a legal and legitimate sect for a time. Until a hundred years ago, they led a grand death celebration, resulting in the death of a total of 235 people participating.

 That's why this sect was recognized as a cult and was expelled and eliminated by all countries. "

“What does this have to do with my current situation?” Li Chengyi frowned.

“How did you get injured?” Syndra asked.

"I encountered an extremely perverted angel stone statue. The flower language ability had no effect on it, and my body's strengthening quality was far inferior to it. I was injured within a few minutes of the fight." Li Chengyi answered simply.

"Then from this scripture, I found out that there are four guardians of order in the Kingdom of Death. The first balance angel is the most common individual there. They can be seen everywhere, balancing everything in it at any time, and There, death is the only balance."

"Is that equivalent to a guard?" Li Chengyi's face twitched. The balance angel's strength is at least close to the eighth level. Is this still the most basic? ?

“Equivalent to elite sergeants. Soldiers, in fact, it should be said that they are the ghosts and skeletons in the Kingdom of Death.” Syndra replied.

"Of course, those who do not pose a threat to you, what we are talking about now are angels. There are four types of angels that guard order. The first is the balancing angel. They have the ability to balance all forces, or engravings. I will give you a description later. You mentioned.

 Second, there are the four-winged Angels of Silence. There are not many of this level in the Kingdom of Death. About every ten Angels of Balance, there will be one Angel of Silence.

 Their ability is to reject any targeted ability that would have a negative impact on them. In the canon, this ability is called Evil Resistance. "

"Evil resistance? How to define evil?" Li Chengyi raised his eyebrows.

“Those who directly attack them are evil. This is the original saying of the scripture, because they are the embodiment of good. Therefore, anyone who tries to attack them is anti. They are all evil.

In addition, if the evil resistance is combined with the altar to take effect, it will also eliminate all the Black Sea atmosphere within a certain range of the surrounding area. "Sindra obviously investigated in great detail.

“There are the next two.” This time Li Chengyi roughly understood why some of the flowery language he had before were effective and some were not.

 Because the flower language such as the hand of addiction directly triggers the evil resistance of the four-winged angel of silence. Moreover, Shadow Flash also relies on the breath of the Black Sea to activate.

"The last two, one is the Angry Angel. They have six wings, are illusory in shape, cannot be touched by ordinary people, and have an immortal existence. It is said that the Angry Angel can directly burn the spiritual consciousness. Their ability, you can think of it as an enhanced version of Little Brown's ability."

“The last one is the ultimate guardian named the Angel of Death. There is no record in the scriptures, but it is only mentioned that it can grant eternal death to all living beings. The person who wrote it must have never seen it, so it cannot be described.”

“I can’t even beat the second one now, so there’s no need to think about the follow-up problems.” Li Chengyi smiled bitterly.

 Since he obtained the Flower of Evil, he has rarely felt so helpless.

 The four-winged angel of silence is actually only the second-tier monster there. I don’t know how strong the next two levels will be.

"What I want to say is not this. It is a position mentioned in this scripture." Syndra said. "About the positioning of the engraving."

 “Engraving?”

"Yes. In the Death Angel Cult, they will exist everything. Note that the word "existence" is used here, not living body.

 They are divided into different engraving stages, namely six characteristic engravings.

They believe that after individual existence reaches a certain level, similar commonalities will inevitably appear. "

Syndra paused, her expression serious.

“These commonalities, or the common characteristics that naturally appear after sublimation to different levels, are what they call imprints.”

"Speaking of which, Paine summed up this imprinting characteristic from the scriptures. The descriptions in it are very scattered and obscure. If Paine hadn't been careful, I wouldn't have noticed it."

 “Tell me about it.” Li Chengyi felt vaguely in his heart that this engraving system branched off by the Death Angel Cult seemed to be very important.

“It’s very simple, engraving is the NOT gate we mentioned before. There is a NOT gate in every individual body. After breaking through the NOT gate, you can come into contact with those existences that were once incomprehensible.

 These existences also have different categories and levels. The imprint is the system that divides them into categories. "Sindra said.

“This system believes that when Black Sea individuals ascend to a certain height, some characteristics that will inevitably appear will appear. They named these characteristics as engravings.”

“For example, the four-winged angels you encountered, the evil resistance of the Silent Angel. This is a trait—complete resistance.”

“Simply put, when an individual’s strength in a certain aspect continues to increase and reaches a certain height, it will naturally resist some attacks.

 This resistance will be weak at first, but will become stronger and stronger later on. Until complete immunity, that is, the level of complete resistance. "

“You are saying that the Angel of Silence has reached the level of complete resistance?” Li Chengyi said.

"It's possible." Syndra nodded, "After complete resistance, the second trait is super-speed recovery. It is an enhanced version of super-speed regeneration, but this trait does not require any consumption and can be recovered quickly."

“.” Li Chengyi couldn’t help but think of the faceless scholar. That's what that guy is.

"The third imprint is rejection. Reject any phenomenon, state, or fact of your choice. For example, reject aging, decay, disease, etc."

Syndra introduced.

“The follow-up is unclear in the scriptures, but judging from the first three markings, individuals with these markings are definitely top monsters. Because these markings are in a progressive relationship, they can all possess them.”

“The question now is, how do I get out of the Death Angel City?” Li Chengyi said.

"With your strength, you can't even fight against the four-winged Angel of Silence, let alone the follow-up, so we can only think of other ways." Syndra said.

“The previous method of escaping was to keep reciting scriptures without taking a break. This is obviously a brainwashing method, and there is no way I can do it.” Li Chengyi frowned.

"Then think of a way to improve yourself. There is more than one way to escape from the blind spot. If I remember correctly, it has been a year since you entered the blind spot, right?" Syndra said.

 “Yes.” Li Chengyi nodded.

 Looking back to the beginning, when he had just obtained the Flower of Evil and had just entered a blind corner, he was embarrassed.

 At least things are much better now than before.

And he also has the blue book crescent mark on his body, which can prevent death.

 From an ordinary person to where he is today

"If that doesn't work, you can also ask Paine to have a look. Do you know what the main flower he chose is?" Syndra said.

"What?"

 “Pure white abundant rose.”

 Pure white roses, the language of flowers is Dawn of Despair combined with Paine's own talent, no wonder.

 Li Chengyi came to his senses.

 No wonder Paine can now easily help all the dead-end people find clues to escape.

"However, he often helps people in various blind spots now, and the capital of the Angel of Death is too dangerous. If it is not necessary, you'd better not go to him easily." Syndra advised. "It's best if you can solve it yourself. If it doesn't work, just recite sutras and believe in your own willpower."

"." Li Chengyi can now understand the despair faced by those who are helpless.

　　Can't fight, can't escape.

 According to the news from other dead-end people, as long as you chant sutras, all the beings in the Death Angel City will spontaneously help you guard.

In other words, as long as you are a believer, there is a safe and peaceful Kingdom of Death.

"The next time you enter a dead end, make a good decision on how to deal with it. Judging from the engraving, it will be extremely difficult for you to break out of the dead end as you did before." Syndra sighed.

"I see."

 Li Chengyi nodded.

Walking to the office window, he looked out at the lively night scene and fell into silence for a moment.
