Chapter 3942: Light Wheel Follows
Although he kept staring at the stream, he looked like he was in a daze.
But Angel could confirm from his extrasensory perception that he was very tense. Especially after he and Laplace arrived, the tension became more and more severe.
Obviously, his heart was not as calm as he appeared.
Moreover, although he seemed to be observing the water, he was actually paying close attention to Ingres.
You can tell from the ups and downs of emotions.
"Is he in a daze?" Although Angel knew that he was nervous, he still asked according to normal logic.
Laplace shook his head calmly: "No, he is thinking about how he will respond if you attack him from behind."
Angel: “…Hmm?”
Why would I attack him? Angel looked confused.
Laplace: "He is such a person. Although he looks cold on the surface, his inner thoughts are comparable to a normal theater play."
"However, the theater in his heart only performs one play—"
"Murder and Counter-Murder."
He would simulate various murder scenes and methods in his inner theater, and of course, he himself would be the executioner holding the knife.
He would also simulate various counterattack scenarios in his inner theater. For example, when he saw Angel coming, his inner theater would simulate Angel's sneak attack, and he would dodge the sneak attack and then counterattack.
Angel: "...He is so bloodthirsty?"
Laplace shook his head: "No, he just likes fighting."
The moment they finished speaking, they had already come behind the burly man. Only then did the burly man slowly turn around, revealing a plain face.
The only thing worth talking about this face is a vertical scar that runs from the bottom of the left cheek, across the nose, to the top of the right cheek.
His originally plain face suddenly looked a bit more savage because of this scar.
"Let me introduce him to you. He is another incarnation that I brought from my original body. His prototype is Sigimund of the barbarian tribe."
As soon as Laplace finished speaking, the man named Sigimund nodded slightly to Angel and said, "Hello, I'm Sigimund, a swordsman. I know you are Angel, no need to introduce yourself."
After saying this, Sigimund looked at Laplace and said seriously, "I want to correct one thing. You just explained it wrong."
Laplace: “…”
Sigimund: "Before, Angel asked you if I was in a daze, and you said I was thinking: If Angel attacks me from behind, how should I respond?"
"I want to tell you solemnly that I was not thinking about his sneak attack. Instead, I was thinking about how I would distinguish what was real if I fell into Angel's illusion."
Angel, Laplace: "..."
Sigimund continued, "Although I will simulate killing and counter-killing in my mind, I will not use the same old sneak attack template. Everyone has their own way of attacking. I will customize different counter-killing repertoires for different people according to their talents and abilities... But Angel is an exception for now."
Angel: "Why would I be an exception?"
Sigimund looked at Angel and said, "Because I haven't figured out how to break the illusion if I unfortunately fall into your illusion."
Sigimund fought countless battles in his life, and naturally he had encountered people who were good at illusions.
But their illusions are different from Angel's illusions.
Once he fell into the nightmare, he was sure that with his current abilities, he would not be able to break out of it.
Angel: "...I don't know why you think so, but the best way to break the illusion is to make me unable to use illusions."
"For example, interrupt me before I use an illusion."
Sigimund: "I can indeed interrupt your use of illusion in advance, but this is different."
In Sigismund's eyes, different people have different abilities. The "counterattack" in his inner drama is to find flaws in the opponent's abilities and then counterattack.
Instead of killing the opponent before the ability is released.
——Killing the opponent before releasing the ability is a real battle. But the battle in your mind is definitely not so "simple". You have to make it difficult for yourself to know where your limit is.
Sigismund explained the difference very seriously.
After explaining, he added: "I can't break Angel's illusion. So, in the theater in my mind, Angel will be temporarily excluded. But if it is a fight in reality, I will definitely take action before Angel releases his illusion."
Angel: "...Thank you."
Although Sigimund was confused, he nodded: "This is what I should do."
"..."
Although it was just a simple joke, Ingres got a general understanding of Sigismund's character from it.
This is a battle maniac who is always eager to improve his fighting skills.
When there is a battle, I will fight earnestly; when there is no battle, I will simulate the battle in my mind.
No wonder both Gleipnir and Laplace recommended Sigimund to go to the Dark Corner to open up the wasteland.
Because in terms of combat skills alone, Sigimund is definitely second to none. Without the bonus of the body, Sigimund is the most likely person to successfully open up the dark corners.
"Although I can't break through your illusion for the time being, I will think carefully about countermeasures in the days to come." Sigimund looked at Angel with fighting spirit in his eyes: "When I come back from the dark corner, I will challenge you. I hope you won't refuse."
Angel stared at the man in front of him who was full of fighting spirit. After a moment, he nodded gently: "Then I will wait for you to return victoriously from the dark corner."
If Sigismund wants to challenge him, he must come back alive.
Sigimund said calmly: "The Dark Corner is just a place for me to hone my skills. I will complete the main mission of the Dark Corner as soon as possible and sharpen this sword that can cut off your illusion."
Perhaps Ingres, Laplace and others were very cautious about the dark corner, but for Sigismund, it was just a journey.
No matter how dangerous the dark corner is, can it be as dangerous as the wilderness in the wild world?
As a person who has lived in the wilderness for a long time, danger to him is just some wind and frost.
If the dark corners were more dangerous than the wilderness, Sigimund would not be afraid, and might even be more excited. In the Land of Grinding, the pressure should be constantly applied!
"Survival is just the starting point, standing firm is my goal."
After Sigimund finished speaking, he looked at Angel and said, "Let's set off now. I can't wait to go to the dark corner and witness the new world."
Although he said "witness", Ingres could see the burning fire of fighting spirit in Sigismund's eyes.
How can this be called a "witness"? It's more like a "sword certificate".
Use the sword to kill and use the sword to fight.
Faced with Sigismund who was eager to go to the dark corner and kill everyone, Angel naturally could not refuse and nodded in agreement.
The window period for connecting Companion Lake and the Hidden Waters is very short and must not be delayed.
However, before entering the Modern City dungeon, Angel did not forget to ask whether the things he needed to bring were ready.
For example, a mirror.
Laplace had said before that if one wanted to use secret techniques to see Sigimund's movements in dark corners, one had to carry a mirror with him.
Only in this way can the projection of the mirror be captured by the sea of empty mirrors.
"If I'm not prepared, I can use the Dream Conch to pull a mirror in..."
As soon as Angel finished speaking, Laplace shook his head: "No, the mirror has been replaced, and it is very suitable for Sigimund."
"Speaking of which, this mirror is also related to Turing."
Angel was stunned: "Is it related to Turing?"
Laplace nodded, and after confirming that Sigimund had gone to the dark corner, she began to arrange to find the mirror.
There is only one requirement: sturdiness.
Only a solid mirror can present images stably in the sea of empty mirrors.
At that time, Laplace had two ideas. Either he could ask Ingres for help and use the dream conch to pull a mirror from reality; or he could look for a mirror-like fairyland prop in the Dream Crystal Origin.
The most convenient way would definitely be to ask Angel for help, but Angel had already gone to find Benberg, so Laplace put this plan on hold.
Then, she asked the rabbit girl to help and ask in Rabbit Town if anyone had obtained a mirror-like wonderland prop.
The final result is, no.
While the bunny girl was looking for the mirror, she asked Eveda to take care of Turing.
After that, Turing was tricked by Eveda into recording and archiving things.
When Turing went to record the information of the new residents, a new resident from the Crystal Eye tribe flew in from the sky, and the flying prop it was standing on was a "mirror".
Laplace: "It is just a coincidence that the bunny girl who was looking for it intentionally was not found, but Turing who was looking for it unintentionally was found."
"After that, we used a combat-type fairyland item to exchange for this mirror from the new resident of the Crystal Eye Tribe."
After saying this, Laplace looked at Sigimund.
The latter realized it, and with a slight wave of his hand, a mirror slowly flew out from the dedicated fairyland space.
It was a round mirror the size of a millstone. It looked very transparent, with golden flame patterns on the edge.
After circling in the air, the round mirror slowly fell into Ingres' hands.
The moment Ingres touched the mirror, the fairyland information about the mirror slowly appeared before his eyes.
"Fairyland Props: Fake Vulcan Light Wheel"
"It comes from the Holy Fire Arena. The halo behind the god's head is a manifestation of his divinity. But when lawless people use a disc made of mirror steel rock to disguise it as a god's halo, it is a blasphemy against divinity."
"Additional skill: Light ring follows."
"Halo Follows: Passive ability. When carrying this item, the halo will always float and follow the user. The initial position is behind the user's head, disguised as a god's halo. The following position can be adjusted."
"This item can be stored in a separate wonderland space."
After reading the information about the item, Ingres' expression gradually changed from anticipation to silence.
He actually thought it was a round mirror, but it turned out not to be a mirror at all!
Instead, it was created by criminals based on the halo behind the god's head to create a false millstone that can float in the air and follow people!
Before this, Ingres was still wondering why Turing was found but the rabbit girl was not?
Logically speaking, the new immigrants are very grateful to the Dream Mirror Organization and the Bunny Girl.
After all, it was the Dream Mirror Organization that gave them a second life.
Therefore, as long as the bunny girl speaks up, there shouldn't be anyone who would hide anything.
Now Angel understood that the new settlers would not hide anything, but they would not lie either. What the bunny girl wanted was a mirror, not this fake Vulcan light wheel.
The owner did not regard the halo as a mirror, so naturally he would not contact the bunny girl.
Laplace also noticed that Angel's expression was a little subtle. She raised the corners of her lips and whispered, "Although the information in Wonderland does not regard it as a mirror, to some extent, it can be a mirror."
"Also, as I said before, the reflection of the Sea of Mirrors is not limited to mirrors. As long as there is a mirror surface, even a drop of water can be reflected."
However, the mirror surface created by a drop of water is very fragile. Even if it is projected onto the sea of empty mirrors, it is estimated that it will not last for even half a second before it will dissipate again.
This is also why Laplace equipped Sigismund with a sturdy mirror.
Only in this way can the projection of the sea of empty mirror be stabilized.
"This 'mirror' is made of mirror steel rock. The biggest feature of this material is its hardness." Laplace: "So, it goes without saying how strong it is."
Its previous owner even used it as a "flying skateboard" and flew on it.
Even so, it did not leave any marks on the mirror surface, which is enough to show how hard it is.
"Also, the Light Wheel skill that comes with it is also very useful." Laplace said, "You can even say that I chose this mirror just for this skill."
Laplace's secret technique can make the Sea of Empty Mirror reflect the image of Sigimund.
But the prerequisite is that Sigismund needs to carry a mirror with him and see what Sigismund does through the reflection of the mirror.
If Sigismund wanted to see a wider picture and a better angle, he would need to hold the mirror and adjust it himself.
Even so, it is difficult to balance the picture and the behavior.
For example, if Sigismund encountered a monster in a dark corner, how could he use the mirror to project light while fighting?
But now with the "Halo Follower", it will follow Sigismund throughout the whole process. As long as Sigismund adjusts the angle of the mirror projection at the beginning, he can ignore it throughout the whole process.
It can be said that this "halo accompanies" is a perfect fit for Sigismund's journey into the dark corner.
This is why Laplace did not need Ingres to use the dream conch to pull in the mirror, because there was no mirror more suitable for Sigismund than this one.
Ingres also understood at this time.
To put it bluntly, Sigismund’s journey to the dark corners can be regarded as a live travel broadcast.
And the mirror reflection is the live camera.
"Fake Vulcan Halo" is a live broadcast camera.
It was impossible for Sigismund to always pay attention to the live broadcast screen, and "Halo Follow" perfectly solved the problem of the lens.
Thinking about it this way, this "fake light wheel real machine" is indeed difficult to replace.
