Chapter 4258 Golden Spot
To the rabbit girl's surprise, Angel was not alone in the outer hall.
Gray Porcelain was also there, curiously observing her as she emerged.
"Captain, who was that person who looked just like you? I just came out and saw her turn into golden light and merge into your body..."
Upon hearing Gray Porcelain's words, the rabbit girl understood when Gray Porcelain had appeared.
She didn't answer immediately, but instead gently pressed her hand against her chest.
The golden light had clearly entered her chest, but she herself did not feel any change.
She thought she would gain "memories" or "skills" to glimpse the thoughts of her different self, but she got nothing... which left her feeling somewhat lost.
Angell seemed to understand the rabbit girl's thoughts and said softly, "Actually, this is the most authentic way."
The rabbit girl looked up, a question on her face.
Angell: "If they merge into your body, but then develop their own thoughts and raise questions completely beyond your knowledge base... do you think they are still you in that situation?"
"My challenge in the ring is itself a discussion of the form of existence, a discussion of the id, the ego, and the superego."
"The path you chose to pass through is not the superego, so in the end it is just an integration and return between the id and the ego."
"Although your 'variable theory' and her 'variable practice' surprised and even delighted me, it still doesn't reach the level of the superego."
Because the true superego needs to be defined by your future self. She merely helps you integrate the present; only you can transcend the present.
Angell kept his gaze fixed on the rabbit girl, and seeing that she was deep in thought and was making sure she was listening, he continued:
"They left behind no independent thoughts, which is the most reasonable ending. Because their thoughts originated from you, from the countless possibilities hidden within you."
"Now, they have simply put this possibility into practice, and then transformed the insights gained in the process... such as the yearning for freedom, the persistence in authenticity, and the desire for understanding, into the purest experience, which has been reintegrated into your spirituality."
"Although you don't have any extra memories that don't belong to you, I believe that when you face artistic expression, craftsmanship, or verbal battles in the future... you will find that you will be more composed than before."
"That's not the indoctrination of knowledge, but the elevation of one's realm. The path you've walked has become the foundation beneath your feet."
Perhaps at other times, if the rabbit girl heard Angell say this, she would think it was just a piece of feel-good advice, but in reality, it contained nothing of substance.
But at this moment, Angell's voice was like a warm current, quietly smoothing out the wrinkles of melancholy in her heart.
The rabbit girl hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently: "...Thank you."
Angell smiled. "You're welcome. You did very well this time. As I just said, although you didn't take the 'path of the superego,' I saw your true nature and resilience from different perspectives."
In particular, it incorporates the "self" from the first six layers.
Even though she is still only one aspect, she is able to break through the constraints and create variables within constant rules, which is a very difficult and meaningful thing.
The concept of "self" originates from the rabbit girl, so the choice of "self" can also be seen as the choice of the rabbit girl.
The "self" can create change within the unchanging, and so can the rabbit girl.
Therefore, by looking at it from the side, we can see even more clearly how... radiant and extraordinary the rabbit girl truly is.
On the other side, the rabbit girl was a little embarrassed by Angel's praise and could only forcefully change the subject: "I'm more concerned about your upcoming challenge than my situation."
When she said this, even Huici, who was just watching the show, couldn't help but nod in agreement.
After emerging from the black dot, it discovered that a huge phantom of the White Lion Warrior had appeared above the dot beneath its feet.
It only glanced at the other locations before understanding the significance of these enormous phantoms.
When it first appeared, there were only four huge phantoms in the outside world. Later, with the addition of itself and the challenge of the guild leader's completion, there are now six phantoms representing anchor points of faith.
In other words, there are a total of nine checkpoints, and six of them have been cleared.
All that's missing are two black dots and one light gold dot.
The black dots represent Gabriel; based on its current progress, it should be able to reach its maximum size.
The only pale gold dot belongs to Angell.
This location is the most important and crucial of the nine locations... because the challenger will directly confront the divine will of the demon god.
Gray Porcelain didn't know what kind of test the Demon God's divine will give, but logically speaking, it definitely wouldn't be simple.
After all, the sealing array was originally designed to seal the divine thoughts of a demon god. Knowing this, it's impossible that He would set a simple task for the visitor to seal Him...
Of course, if you are unaware of it, that's another story.
But could He be unaware of it?
Gray Porcelain thought it was unlikely.
So, when the rabbit girl shifted the topic to the challenge of the golden spot, a clear look of worry appeared in Gray Porcelain's eyes. It even seemed to have lost all interest in recounting its triumphant victory...
Angor wasn't too worried, after all, this wasn't the first time he had faced a demon god.
Last time, he faced the Demon God himself and even witnessed the Demon God's demise; but this time he was only facing a wisp of divine thought. The Demon God would die if he were killed, let alone a wisp of divine thought.
So why should we be afraid?
Moreover, he was very clear that if you were afraid when facing a demon god, you would only appear to be easy to manipulate, and even amplify your mistakes.
Only by remaining calm and confident can we face any challenge with ease.
"There are still fifty minutes left, and it's time for me to enter this final challenge." Angell looked at the shimmering disc, while Gabriel was about to complete his second black dot challenge.
He murmured, "I hope I get out before Gabriel finishes his third point challenge, so I won't be the last one."
After all, Gray Porcelain and the Rabbit Girl had both completed their challenges, leaving only him and Gabriel.
Therefore, the only comparison we can make is with Gabriel.
Gray Porcelain pouted: "Gabriel's challenge is definitely not as difficult as Mr. Angel's... Even if he comes out later, you still win!"
Angel shrugged: "I don't think the challenge of the black dots is easy... Or are you denying your prowess in challenging the White Lion Warrior?"
Gray Porcelain was taken aback, and quickly waved his hand: "The White Lion Warrior is very strong! I, I... but I still think that in terms of difficulty, it is definitely not as good as the challenge of the master and the captain."
Angel waved his hand: "To me, they're all the same."
"I'm not saying anything more, I'm going in first."
After Angell finished speaking, he walked toward the floating paper in the center of the hall.
Rabbit Girl: "Go for it! I'll be ready anytime."
Angel didn't turn around, but simply waved his hand and walked into the golden spot in the center with the Proverb...
……
When Angor stood up from the weightlessness, he found himself no longer in the main hall, but in another dimension.
He wasn't surprised by this, but what did surprise him was that this alternate dimension wasn't pure black or pure white.
The floor beneath your feet has a glass-like texture, and beneath this "glass" lies a golden ocean that defies description.
What flows in the "ocean" is not real liquid, but countless tiny golden luminous particles.
These particles are not a single shade of gold; they shimmer with a subtle spectrum ranging from pale gold to orange gold and even dark gold, like crushed golden years, blending into this unified yet distinct golden ocean.
And above their heads, there was not a ceiling, but an extremely deep night sky.
The night sky is studded with stars.
They are arranged in a breathtakingly dense array, forming this absolutely ordered yet incredibly vast starry sky.
The starlight fell indifferently, reflecting the golden ocean flowing beneath our feet.
Ingres, being in this setting, experiences an epic atmosphere that is both magnificent and lonely.
"Is this the space where the golden dot is located?" Angel murmured, trying to find the "exam question" in this dreamlike space.
But there was nothing around.
There was no arena, and no one was around.
Just as Angell was wondering, a strange feeling suddenly enveloped him.
This feeling was not unfamiliar to him; he had experienced it before in the inverted ring and the disparate ring.
—Unable to move or speak.
Is this a cutscene?
Angor's eyes darted around, trying to see where the plot was progressing, and where the buildings and NPCs were.
But half a day later, he saw nothing.
Just as Angell was about to use his God's-eye view, a dialogue option suddenly popped up in the text bar.
"We meet again."
Looking at this option, Angel was completely dumbfounded: "???"
Who?
Who did he meet with again?
Where is he/she?
Angel silently used eye movement to click on the dialogue option.
“We meet again.” Angel’s voice appeared out of nowhere.
Immediately afterwards, a voice answered him.
"Yes, we meet again. I still remember that little teacuphead from your team, a very interesting and capable little guy."
Without a doubt, what the other party was referring to was gray porcelain.
However, what Angor was more concerned about was that the other person's voice seemed to be coming from under the floor.
No wonder we couldn't see him before; he's currently unable to move, not even to lower his head. Naturally, we didn't discover the "NPC" underground either.
Since this NPC knows Gray Porcelain, perhaps they are people they met on the road?
Come to think of it, its voice sounds familiar...
As Angell was recalling, an option appeared in the text box: "Bow your head".
I selected it without hesitation.
I looked down.
Beneath the glass, in the depths of the golden ocean, a colossal silhouette was slowly emerging and coalescing.
It was a colossal image with a human face and a sphinx, composed entirely of flowing golden particles, exuding an imposing aura, as if it were the embodiment of the will of this golden sea of flowing hemp.
Its face was slightly lowered, with an ancient expression that was a mixture of compassion and majesty, as it silently gazed at Angell through the glass.
Angell recognized it the moment he saw it.
—Normefens.
Previously, whether in normal or perfect levels, they had encountered this "lion-faced man" Normefens in the corridor of mechanisms.
Furthermore, every time it takes on the challenge "The Wall of Sighs of Normefens", it is Gray Porcelain that completes it.
Therefore, it's quite normal that it has a deep impression of gray porcelain.
However, to Angell's surprise, Nomefens actually appeared in the challenge at the golden spot...
What exactly is its identity?
……
As Angell faced Nomefens, the scene was also projected into the live broadcast room of the Radiant Disc outside.
“It’s Normfins!” Gray Porcelain exclaimed in surprise. “It seems to be talking to Mr. Angell… It’s a pity we can’t hear what they’re saying…”
"But why is Normefens in the trial level? Is the challenge at the golden point also the Wall of Sighs?"
“The Wailing Wall isn’t exactly a test of knowledge,” the rabbit girl whispered. “It shouldn’t be the Wailing Wall. However, Normefens’s identity is indeed a bit questionable.”
In fact, before they even arrived at the sealed land, Normefens had already informed them about the sealing array there.
Even the specific locations are clearly known.
Previously, they thought that Normefens was an NPC created by the power of the fairy realm, so it was normal for him to know some information.
But now, Normefens has appeared in the golden spot level, which makes them unable to help but have new guesses... You know, according to the rules, the golden spot is where you directly face the divine will of the demon god.
Could Normefens be related to the thoughts of the demon god?
Or……
"Are you the Demon God's Divine Thought?" Angel looked at the ground and asked the question that had been bothering him.
When Angell lowered his head to meet Nomefens's gaze, his linguistic constraints were lifted, but his physical shackles remained.
Therefore, he asked directly at the first opportunity.
His thinking was similar to that of the rabbit girl. The mystery surrounding Nomefens's identity, coupled with her appearance in the test at the golden point, naturally aroused his suspicions.
"I am not a demon god's divine thought." Normefens's voice was loud and clear, but it did not spread.
"Then why are you here?" Angell asked, puzzled. "And I remember you told Gray Porcelain before that you didn't know what the challenge at the Golden Point was. But why are you here now, participating in the Golden Point challenge?"
Normfins: "The real challenge has not yet begun, and I am not part of the challenge."
"I am here because I have learned some information on short notice and gained some minor privileges, so I am here to answer your questions."
He only received the information temporarily? With negligible authority? To clarify things for himself?
Ingres could understand each word of Normeffens, but when put together, it was very confusing.
Normefens seemed to notice Angor's doubts as well. It was silent for a moment, then said softly, "She once told me that if you have any doubts, you can say the name of the book fairy."
A book fairy?
Angel seemed to understand something: "Did the book fairy send you?"
Normfins nodded: "Sort of, but not entirely. I also have some of my own ideas."
Angell: "???"
Normfins: "If you're willing to take the time to listen, I don't mind sharing my thoughts. But you're pressed for time right now, are you sure you want to hear my ideas?"
Looking into Normefens's golden eyes through the glass, Angell said softly, "If it takes too much time, then forget it. You said you would answer my questions, do you mean you would help me?"
Nomefens nodded slightly: "I can tell you some information and analyze the rules of this challenge... but there's more I can't help with."
Angell nodded knowingly.
I understand now. Normefens was actually temporarily acting as an NPC interpreting the rules.
Just like the masked referee and the man in the mirror before.
