Chapter 3172 Crystal Dust

"Ritual?" Laplace glanced at the guard indifferently: "What ritual?"

"This...I don't know too well." The guard didn't want to say it at first, but he was stared at by Laplace's different pupils. He only felt a chill on the back of his spine, and after choking, he opened his mouth.

"The specific ceremony is only known to the Presbyterians, we are only managing the blockade... I don't know anything."

Laplace took a deep look at the guard and did not comment on his words, just said softly: "No need."

Guardian: "???" What's not needed?

Seeing the guard's bewildered face, Luigi on the side sighed and explained: "She means, we won't go to the VIP room. However, we didn't plan to stay here, our target is the master of the siege party. stand."

The guard was stunned for a moment, before he reacted: "Oh...oh! Are the guests planning to go through passage 003 to go to the gathering at the besieged city? Then...then please come this way."

The guard saw that the crowd did not move, and scratched the temples covered by the crystal hat: "I mean, I'm here to show the honorable guests the way."

The duty of the guards is to ensure that there are no foreigners outside the current ring fort. As long as Laplace and the others don't stay in this ring-shaped fort, they can go to the VIP room or passage 003.

Looking at the diligent performance of the guards, Laplace was silent for a moment, and glanced at Angel from the corner of his eye.

Angol obviously noticed Laplace's peripheral vision, and nodded lightly with a slight movement.

Laplace said: "Yes."

The guard let out a long sigh of relief and took the initiative to lead the crowd to the next passage.

Until Angel and others completely disappeared in the dark corridor, the guard wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and then quickly summoned a wisp of drifting crystal dust.

—He needs to pass the crystal dust to the elder who presides over the ceremony.

Don't look at the fact that he was the only one who came to stop Laplace and the others. In fact, the other patrolling guards in the ring castle discovered the situation here, but they didn't come.

"The identity of the person who came here is unknown, but the strength... is very strong." The guards quickly gathered crystal dust: "However, their goal is to gather around the city, and they appeared in this ring fort. They came through the 013 passage not long ago. They have now entered 003. The passage, it should just be passing by."

As the voice fell, the condensed crystal dust quickly dissipated.

After the guard finished talking about the situation, he did not let go of his dangling heart, but stared at the scattered crystal dust with a nervous expression.

After a few seconds, the crystal dust floating in the air condensed again.

A kind of information that only the guards can understand, passed through the crystal dust: 'Since you have left, don't bother. However, take care to clean up any residual energy around to ensure that no information is leaked. It must be cleaned up, there are still a few minutes, the old heroic spirit is about to be born, and there must be no loss. ’

This is a message from the elders.

The guard immediately said: "Understood."

After , the guards began to summon other companions to clean up all the pheromones and possible residual energy left over by Angel and others.

And when they were doing the final cleaning, in the dark passage, Laplace's barrier enveloped everyone again.

Angol looked at Laplace: "Are you sure you're all right?"

When Angel asked Laplace, Laplace was staring at a small phantom light screen in the barrier.

This is not the first time Laplace has seen a screen simulated by an illusion. She has seen it many times before in the Crystal of Dreams.

According to Angel, this is called - Mirage Live.

Illusion live broadcast is divided into: holographic live broadcast and light screen live broadcast.

The holographic live broadcast is similar to a shadow box, which allows you to experience the current situation of the anchor; and the light screen live broadcast is similar to watching a flat picture book that can be moved.

There is no doubt that it is now a live broadcast on a light screen.

The light screen was broadcasting the current situation of the ring fort just now: a group of guards were cleaning up the traces they might have left.

The reason why Angel asked "Are you sure you're all right?" was because he saw the guards cleaning up the traces, worried that the illusion node he left behind would be discovered.

And the illusion node left by Angel is on a mirror arranged by Laplace.

Yes, Laplace left a mirror on the scene.

Moreover, this mirror is suspended directly above the ring fort.

Before , Angel and Laplace exchanged glances for this reason.

In Angel's opinion, the position of the mirror is a bit too obvious. His illusion node is attached to the mirror, will it really not be discovered?

Laplace said lightly: "The mirror you see is what I want you to see. It doesn't actually exist in this space..."

With Laplace’s explanation, Ingres gradually understood the principle.

The mirror surface that Laplace left is actually in a deeper space... If you use an analogy, it is similar to a space mezzanine.

The number of mezzanine spaces is almost infinite.

Therefore, even if it is discovered by the Crystal Eyes, it may not be able to find the corresponding interlayer space.

"The mirror surface is arranged in the mezzanine space, but it can reflect the real scene... Is this similar to the corridor in the mirror?" Angel asked curiously.

The corridor in the mirror is located in the mezzanine, and you can see the outside situation from the corridor. But people outside could not see the situation in the corridor in the mirror.

Laplace: "The effect is similar, but more subtle."

The corridor in the mirror is just invisible to the naked eye, but the fluctuation of aggregated energy will penetrate into reality from the interlayer, which can be perceived. Therefore, it is not considered to be concealed, and even slightly powerful creatures in the mirror can detect it.

But the mirror surface that Laplace is releasing now is hidden in a deeper place, and it will not emit aggregation energy, so it will basically not be found.

Therefore, Angel was worried that the illusion node would be noticed and removed by those guards, which was impossible.

This is indeed the case. The guards of the Ring Fort have cleaned up the so-called "residual traces", but they have not found the "mirror" at high altitude.

Through the live broadcast, Angel had seen the guards report to the unknown person through the crystal dust, indicating that the traces were cleared.

Not long after, all the guards dispersed and resumed patrolling. Obviously, the mirror surface in mid-air has been completely ignored by them.

After confirming that the live broadcast would not be affected, Angel breathed a sigh of relief, and had the spare energy to ask some irrelevant topics: "The crystal-eye guards, did they send messages through those scattered crystal dusts?"

Angol noticed that the guards used the condensation of crystal dust to communicate several times in a row. However, Angel was able to collect relevant signals through the live broadcast of the contents of the guard's message, but he could not collect any information at all in the reply from the other end of Jingchen.

But the guards could read the meaning of the gathered crystal dust, which made Angel quite curious.

Luigi: "The Crystal Eyes do rely on the gathering and dispersing of crystal dust to transmit information. They have their own way to understand the meaning of the gathered crystal dust... But for foreigners, it is difficult to interpret. ."

This is similar to "racial talent". The bodies of the Crystal Eyes are made of crystals, and their understanding and cognition of crystals are stronger than all other races. Therefore, they can read the meaning of Jingchen, but other people can't get any information from Jingchen.

Angol nodded understandingly. To put it bluntly, it is impossible to understand the meaning of crystal dust without the physiological structure and living environment similar to the crystal eyes.

The live broadcast continues.

The picture of is still the same as before, and there are still no outsiders in the ring castle, but each floor has added a lot of patrolling guards.

The bottom layer of the center of the ring-shaped fort, the elliptical mirror surface covered with crystal dust, is still constantly gushing out new crystal dust.

Judging from the situation in the live broadcast, the most likely place for this ring-shaped fort to change is this oval mirror... Maybe the "ceremony" that the guards said is also related to this mirror?

Because the live broadcast did not change much, Angel once again set his sights on Laplace.

"You seem to be very concerned about their rituals?" Angel asked curiously.

This live broadcast was an accident in itself.

Laplace first released the dangling mirror before asking Angel if he wanted to watch a good show. Therefore, Angel released the illusion node and made this live broadcast.

Therefore, the real proposer of the live broadcast is Laplace.

Anger was curious about this so-called ritual of the Crystal Eyes, but it was not strong enough to peep at it.

Therefore, Angel was a little curious, why did Laplace take the initiative to spy on the rituals of the Crystal Eyes? Is it because of curiosity, want to read gossip? Or, is there another reason?

"I don't care, but Gleipnir does." Laplace replied: "Gleipnir contacted me before, and she has met Fada."

"As she expected, Fada didn't tell her about Lita, but according to Gleipnir's observations and the information that Fada 'occasionally' revealed. Lita did involve Jingmu. Some secrets of the clan."

"After Fada met Gleipnir, she mentioned the ceremony intentionally or unintentionally."

You must know that rituals are not obvious in the Mirror Realm, and few races in the mirror hold formal rituals. Gleipnir only heard Fada talk about the ceremony a second ago, and the next second she heard that Laplace had encountered the ceremony of the Ring Fort, she naturally thought of it and wanted to know the specific situation.

So, Laplace would take the initiative to release the mirror and invite Angel to watch the play by the way.

"In other words, now it's not just the three of us watching the live broadcast... Gleipnir is watching too?" Angel wondered.

Laplace nodded: "Yes, I shared the picture with Gleipnir."

Well, let’s share the live broadcast remotely.

After a moment of silence, Laplace said: "Gleipnir said that if you have any questions, you can ask before the ceremony is started."

Angol: "Has she left from Fata now?"

Laplace shook his head: "No, she and Fada are in Syluda's study."

Gleipnir was ready to leave after confirming some thoughts in his heart. However, just before she said goodbye, Fada invited her to visit Hilda's study.

With Gleipnir's understanding of Fata, she knew that Fata would definitely not do superfluous things.

Since Fada spoke up, it meant that Hiluda’s study might be hiding some secrets.

Gleipnir was rummaging through Sylda's study while watching the live broadcast.

"So it seems that it's not that Fara doesn't want to say it, but for some reason she can't, or dare not say it?"

Judging from the current situation, Fada wanted to tell Graipnir some truth, otherwise she would not have hinted, and even let Graipnir go to Sylda's study; it's just that Fada couldn't say it clearly.

Laplace nodded: "It should be like this. Fata, she should also have difficulties."

Angol: "Has Gleipnir now confirmed the secret behind the Lita affair?"

Laplace: "There are a few eyebrows, but there are still some 'puzzles' that have not been filled. However, Gleipnir guesses that there should be remaining puzzles in Syluda's study."

Angol can ask now, or wait until Gleipnir finds the rest of the puzzle.

Angel chose the latter, and he still wanted to know the exact answer rather than the ambiguous half-understanding.

Since the secret of the Crystal Eyes family could not be confirmed for the time being, Angel asked about another matter that had already been concluded: the Prophet of the Crystal Eyes, that is, information about Tunita.

Laplace's understanding of Tunita is still the same as when he was young. However, Gleipnir occasionally came to the Crystal Eyes as a guest, and became close friends with Hilda, so he naturally knew a lot about the history of the Crystal Eyes.

Soon, Gleipnir revealed what he knew.

However, this time, she did not speak about Tunita through Laplace's mouth; instead, she told Luigi about the "later" Tunita.

Luigi: "After returning from the sea of ​​empty mirrors, Tunita became the target of public criticism..."

When Luigi was repeating Gleipnir's words, not only Angel was listening, but Laplace beside him was also listening. As the story progresses, the image of Tunita slowly becomes more concrete in Laplace's mind...

Tunita was the only one who came back alive, and naturally became the target of siege. The parents who lost their cubs, and the careerists eager to know the secrets of the Sea of ​​Mirrors, surrounded Tunita and threatened him.

In this case, Tunita is in a huge predicament.

However, Tunita finally responded to the problems of the outside world as a "Hollow Man".

Although, in the process, he was inevitably treated as a pawn, but in the end he survived.

After being silent for decades, Tunita, through cooperation with the sages of Piluxiu at that time, researched many projects that were useful to the Jingmu clan, and was also taken by an elder of the Jingmu clan at that time. Nita rose from a commoner to the status of a great scholar.

From great scholar to elder, and from elder to prophet.

Tunita took two hundred years.

The struggle here is naturally not something that can be explained in a few words. However, it can be known that Tunita works very hard... But what makes many Crystal Eyes puzzled is that any effort needs a goal. It seems that Tunita's efforts do not have a clear goal? He is not for himself, nor for his future, because he has abandoned the status of elders and prophets countless times, which is evident.

What goal he is fighting for, no one knows.

Later, Tunita invented the crystal shell, which gave the crystal eyes a terrifying defense capability and opened a new generation of the crystal eyes.

That year, Tunita was called the greatest prophet of the Crystal Eyes.

It was also in that year that Tunita started the expansion and renovation of Crystal City. Moreover, the corpse crystal was officially born and became the construction material of the crystal city.

Hundreds of years later, Tunita died.

The expansion of the Crystal City did not end because of the death of Tunita. After two thousand years of construction, the mirror collapsed in the middle, and the city has also been moved. Today, the Crystal City standing on the permafrost has become A truly majestic... spectacle!
