Angel was not prepared to experience this so-called crystal pool, but Luigi was prepared to give it a try.
Luigi is not worried that there is something fishy about the crystal pool. As a time body, the worst case scenario is that the memory will be transferred and restarted. And now that there is the Crystal Pool of Dreams, you can also hang up in the Crystal Pool of Dreams during the restart, without having to do the same thing as before.
Waiting in the Forest of Memory. Therefore, for Luigi, as long as it is not a disaster of memory failure, he is not afraid at all.
As for destroying memories, let alone whether the Crystal Eyes have this ability, Luigi doesn't believe that the Crystal Eyes have the courage anyway.
Luigi walked to the door of the Crystal Pool and queued up.
Angel and Laplace took a detour to the road next to the crystal pool and continued moving forward.
"You are right to be cautious." Laplace said calmly as he walked: "You need to maintain the highest vigilance in places you don't understand."
"As for Luigi, don't worry about him. Even if there is something fishy about the crystal pool, the main body's sight will be able to see it."
Although the temporal body is not a 'clone', it can be used as a clone at times like this.
"Wait a little longer and we'll find out if there's something fishy over there in the crystal pool."
Angel and Laplace continued to move forward. About three minutes later, Laplace said: "Luigi has entered the crystal pool."
Angel immediately stopped and paid attention to the situation on Luigi's side.
After another minute, Laplace whispered: "He has come out."
"How's it going? Is there something fishy?" Angel asked curiously.
Laplace hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "He personally thinks there is no problem, but when he comes over, I will know after taking a look."
Before long, Angel heard the rapid footsteps coming from behind him.
Looking back, I saw that it was Luigi who was trotting over.
As soon as Luigi entered the barrier, he shouted in a low voice: "The crystal pool is a lie, right? There were dozens of people who went in with me, but none of them were approved by the crystal embryo."
Angel: "...Are you looking for a way to avoid getting the crystal embryo?"
Luigi: "..."
Luigi was about to retort, but before he could speak, he heard Laplace's voice in his ear: "Luigi."
Luigi turned his head subconsciously, and then he saw a pair of shining eyes.
For a moment, Luigi felt his thoughts enter the dark sky.
And his body was occupied by another powerful consciousness.
As this new consciousness entered Luigi's body, Luigi's memory box was also opened. The trip to the crystal pool he had experienced before was played over and over again in his mind...
On the other side, Angel also noticed that Luigi suddenly stopped.
He followed Luigi's line of sight and also saw Laplace's strange eyes.
In Luigi's eyes, Laplace's eyes were shining with light; but in Angel's eyes, these eyes didn't have any luster, but had an extremely dark tone that made people gasp.
The oppressive feeling of being out of breath.
This sense of oppression is not a coercion; it gives Angel the feeling a bit like... When he was very young, Angel and his brother Leon went to Watford and passed the highest peak of Mount Osore.
Facing the majestic snow-capped mountain thousands of meters high, Angel felt for the first time a sense of oppression and a sense of insignificance in his self-perception.
I feel pretty much the same now as I did then.
This kind of oppression is not targeted, but a kind of majesty that naturally emanates.
Even if Angel looked at it for a second longer, he would feel a tightness in his chest... as if he were facing a huge thing tens of thousands of meters tall.
Angel quickly lowered his head and withdrew his gaze.
Just like this, he lowered his head, and after about ten seconds, Laplace said calmly: "Okay."
Angel raised his head and looked, the strange eyes were still the same, but there was no longer the depressing feeling.
"That was just now..."
Angel was just halfway through speaking when he was interrupted by Luigi's crazy "coughing" sound. Looking back, Luigi was clutching his chest and coughing continuously. A series of coughs made it feel like his lungs were about to come out.
"What's wrong with you?" Angel subconsciously summoned the two tricks of 'detecting disease' and 'healing'.
Before Angel was released, Laplace spoke first: "Don't worry about him, it's just some side effects of being under the gaze of the main body."
"A few hundred million?"
Laplace: "It won't last long, it will recover soon..."
Angel probably understood Luigi's situation. Laplace had used some unknown method to summon his true gaze to Luigi's body to observe his memory in the crystal pool.
So, the pressure he felt before was caused by Laplace's body?
Just coming from a distance, and just looking at it, Angel felt as if he were on a majestic mountain... This was probably the most heart-stopping sense of oppression that Angel had ever experienced.
Not even Frost or the inspector gave him such a feeling.
While Angel was sighing silently in his heart, he subconsciously ignored one thing: in fact, he had encountered a creature with a greater sense of oppression - the Great Demon God of the Abyss, the Flameless Lord.
The Flameless Lord was finally destroyed by a look from 'that person'. The true body's body was still in Angel's hands.
Therefore, if we really want to compare, the person behind Angel may be the real ‘eye killer’.
Laplace glanced at Luigi, then turned to look at Angel: "Compared with these side effects, the information read from his memory is actually more interesting."
Angel was stunned for a moment, and then he realized: "You mean, is there really something wrong with the crystal pool?"
Laplace: "It's impossible to say for sure, but what Luigi saw wasn't entirely the truth."
"Ahem...what did I see wrong?" Luigi, who kept coughing, looked over in confusion even though his chest felt uncomfortable.
"It's not that everyone hasn't obtained the crystal embryo, there are still people who have." Laplace said calmly.
"Ah?" Luigi was stunned for a moment: "I didn't see the crystal embryo flying out from under the crystal pool."
"Just because it didn't come out, it doesn't mean that you can't get the crystal embryo." When Laplace said this, he turned to look at Angel: "Borrow a few illusion nodes."
Angel didn't hesitate, and with a wave of his hand, there were hundreds of illusion nodes.
Laplace was also very familiar with the operation of the illusion node. Within a few seconds, the illusion node turned into a light screen under her control.
The light screen showed Luigi crossing the crystal pool.
The road section to the Crystal Pool is not too long, only about a few hundred meters. For this reason, there are giant creatures that have deliberately reduced their size, otherwise they can cross it in one step.
During the entire process, Luigi stepped on the soft "pool" surface and deliberately slowed down, just to increase the possibility of getting the crystal embryo.
But it was still useless. From the beginning to the end, the ooze-like skin of the crystal pool never broke open.
That's why Luigi said with certainty that no one has been recognized by the Crystal Embryo.
But after Laplace played the scene of "Luigi crossing the crystal pool", he played it again. This time, the focus of the entire scene was not on Luigi, but on the giant man who deliberately restrained his body.
On living things.
It was a giant dragon shrouded in light white mist.
Its real name is "Mist Dragon". Although it is not one of the six giant dragon clans, the Mist Dragon cannot be underestimated in the Hundred Dragon Kingdom. They are naturally good at manipulating the fog. When they are in the fog, their huge bodies will
Completely elementalized, immune to direct physical attacks.
At this time, this mist dragon had already transformed into an element, floating slowly over the crystal pool.
From beginning to end, there was nothing unusual about this fog dragon.
But when Laplace zoomed in on a certain scene, Angel and Luigi noticed the floating crystal dust at the same time.
As soon as these crystal dust appeared, it merged with the mist in less than half a second, so Luigi did not capture this scene.
"These crystal dust... are a bit like the crystal dust that the Crystal Eyes clan used to transmit messages before?" Angel still remembered that when he was in the ring fortress, he saw the guards of the Crystal Eyes clan using this crystal dust to transmit messages.
Laplace: "Yes, it's the crystal dust used for sound transmission."
Angel: "These crystal dusts were arranged by the Crystal Eye Clan. Are they communicating with the fog dragon? But even if they are communicating, it does not necessarily mean that the fog dragon has obtained the crystal embryo."
Laplace: "No, Wulong did obtain the crystal embryo, because 'I' saw it and heard it."
Angel was stunned for a moment and didn't understand the meaning.
Luigi explained from the side: "We can't see it, but the body can."
"???" Angel couldn't understand it more and more.
Luigi: "To put it simply, we are the body of the ontology. The past we have experienced is also the past experienced by the body. The past is a mystery to us, but for the body, as long as the past experienced by the body is
, are all clearly visible.”
Angel frowned: "Is this...the power of time?"
Luigi spread his hands: "It doesn't count. It can be seen but cannot be changed. You can understand it as using time as a medium to 'predict' past encounters."
Although Luigi denied it, this power did not seem like a prophecy to Angel.
The crystal dust has become one with the fog. Laplace's body can break through the fog of the "past" and see and hear their internal conversations?
Even if this is through the medium of "time body", this is incredible!
Angel had previously suspected that Laplace's body might control the power of time, and now he feels more and more that this possibility is very high...
Seeing Angel's suspicious look, Laplace hesitated for a moment and then explained: "The ability used by the main body is more biased towards the 'Eye of Truth' of your wizards."
Eye of Truth, a third-level spell, an advancement of the Eye of True Seeing.
The Eye of True Seeing is a third-level magic. It is also the most difficult type of all third-level magic to learn. It is more difficult to practice than many magic spells. Its effect is to perceive the truest answer through the appearance.
After the Eye of True Sight is upgraded to the Eye of Truth, it jumps directly to the third level, from a third-level magic to a third-level magic.
The effect also appears and changes qualitatively. Not only can you see the answer, you can even see the secret hidden in time.
Back then, in the ruins where Angel lived, Lord Rhine used the Eye of Truth to examine a knight's armor. Angel also learned about the Eye of Truth.
The Eye of Truth does involve some of the power of time, but it does not really enter the realm of time.
It's just a kind of "borrowed light", using a special method to borrow a little time to peek into the past.
Laplace's explanation was obviously telling Angel that this was not the real power of time.
Angel believed Laplace's words, but this does not mean that Laplace's body does not possess the power of time.
However, Angel did not ask further.
Just have a bottom line in your mind.
Rather than exploring the nature of Laplace's power, Angel decided to look at the present first: "Is there a conversation between Jingchen and Wulong?"
Laplace nodded: "Yes."
After finishing speaking, Laplace manipulated the illusion nodes and created a voice dialogue.
The content of the conversation was very simple. Wulong wondered why Jingchen came.
A slightly older voice came from Jingchen's side: "Your Majesty Wulong, please don't misunderstand me. I'm not here to stir up trouble."
"I am informing His Highness Wulong that you have obtained a crystal embryo."
Wulong was very confused: "Isn't the crystal embryo under the crystal pool?"
Since the crystal embryo is under the crystal pool, what do you mean by crystal dust?
Jingchen continued to transmit the message: "There is indeed a crystal embryo under the crystal pool, but it is extremely difficult for it to recognize people from the non-crystal-eyed tribe. In order to prevent the crystal embryo from not recognizing anyone, and to satisfy all of you, we will provide a way to pass through the crystal pool.
The strong man, prepare a crystal embryo."
This means that the way to obtain a crystal embryo is not just luck. If you are strong enough, you can also be "operated in the dark" and get a crystal embryo by default.
Wulong was not carried away by the sugar-coated bullets, but asked further: "Strong? On what basis do you judge the strong?"
Jingchen: "We have our own method. Your Highness Wulong, the crystal embryo is a benefit specially provided by us to respect the strong. We do not expect any reward. It is entirely up to Your Highness whether you need it or not."
Wulong pondered for a moment and then said: "What type of crystal embryo?"
Jingchen quickly said: "The defensive crystal embryo can be customized into a crystal shell that can defend against energy attacks."
Wulong is almost immune to direct physical attacks, but cannot completely defend against energy attacks. Therefore, Jingchen said that he was gifting a crystal shell that can defend against energy attacks without asking for anything in return. Even if Wulong wanted to refuse,
I can't be cruel either.
In the end, Wulong accepted this secret operation.
"His Highness Wulong can go to the Jingmu Clan station to register and customize the style of the crystal embryo. Customizing the crystal embryo takes time, so it will be completed around noon tomorrow. His Highness Wulong can go and collect it then."
Wulong nodded to express his understanding.
At this time, the crystal dust slowly began to fall, preparing to sink into the crystal pool.
Just when Jingchen was about to leave, Wulong asked curiously: "I'm going to register. I have to give my name...who are you?"
After the crystal dust floated for a few seconds, he slowly said: "Cassata, my name is Cassata."
