Hearing Angel's words, Xiao Xiaotao's weird little eyebrows raised, as if she was surprised by Angel's courage.
"You want to perform in front of me?"
Angel nodded. There were many ways to perform. As long as it was not an artistic performance, he could try it.
Anyway, it won’t hurt if you try it.
Seeing Angel nod, Xiao Xiaotao showed a bit of ridicule in her black eyes: "You only have a flash of consciousness now, and even your appearance is a shell of illusion. What kind of performance can you do?"
Angel: "I can bring my body over."
Xiao Xiaotao turned her head and said, "I can't wait that long. I just took some time out of my busy schedule to follow my destiny."
"I don't have much time left. I have to go back and give interviews to those prospective actors."
Angel "Interviewing prospective actors? Do you work in a theater?"
Xiao Xiaotao snorted coldly, "If you want to know, then let her meet my request."
After Xiao Xiaotao finished speaking, that weird peach face no longer faced Angel, but looked at Laplace.
Obviously, the problem is back to its original point.
Xiao Xiaotao didn't want to watch Angel's performance. Moreover, Angel was just a fake body now and couldn't perform anything earth-shattering.
Therefore, the performance she wants to watch and the performance she is looking forward to is still Laplace's "The Whale Absorbs Water".
When Laplace saw Xiao Xiaotao looking at him, she was silent for a moment and said, "Swallowing memories doesn't seem to be considered a performance, right?"
When Xiao Xiaotao made this request before, Laplace didn't bother to pay attention. Even though Xiao Xiaotao had a mysterious aura and was most likely a mysterious spirit, for Laplace, this didn't have much appeal because the other party was just
A "passer-by".
However, if Xiao Xiaotao can help Angel, then Laplace is willing to consider Xiao Xiaotao's request.
But what she doesn't understand is why Xiao Xiaotao insists on letting her act like a whale sucking water?
It is actually not difficult for her to swallow up the memory of the Sea of Empty Mirror. Every time she makes a body, she will absorb the memory manifested in the Sea of Empty Mirror and turn it into inspiration material. Therefore, she wants to swallow it.
The memory was effortless. However, she didn't understand Xiao Xiaotao's thoughts.
Hearing Laplace's question, Xiao Xiaotao's narrow eyes flashed brightly, and she explained seriously: "For you, this is a daily life. But for me, it is an interesting event.
Performance."
My daily life has become your performance? Laplace frowned. She was still a little confused. Could this be the strange brain circuit of the mysterious spirit?
"A life of observing interesting things is the beautiful scenery I pursue." Xiao Xiaotao: "Compared to those exaggerated performances, what I like more is the beautiful scenery I discovered by myself. Similarly, this is also my philosophy as an interviewer.
.”
Xiao Xiaotao said something strange again. Laplace didn't understand it, but Angel did.
To sum it up, you stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, and the people watching the scenery are watching you upstairs.
You become the scenery for others, but you don’t know it yourself.
"If you, as an interviewer, pursue such a performance, will anyone really be able to pass the interview?" Angel muttered in a low voice.
You need the other person to be an actor, but you also need the other person not to know that you are an actor. Furthermore, you need to personally discover the beauty in the other person. If you interview according to this standard, wouldn't all actors have to be eliminated?
Perhaps hearing Angel's muttering, Xiao Xiaotao said with deep meaning: "Indeed, there are very few people who can pass my interview. However, if you can't even pass my interview, then there is no need to go to the theater.
The stage."
Laplace "So, you are interviewing me?"
Xiao Xiaotao shook her head: "No, I'm not working now. I'm just doing a show I want to watch in my spare time."
"Besides, if it were an interview, you wouldn't even be able to pass the first interview, let alone my interview."
"So, you are lucky to meet me and have me make the request."
If others want to get Xiao Xiaotao's answer, they must pass at least the first two rounds of interviews, but not everyone can pass the theater interview.
There can be more than one interviewer in a theater. They have different preferences and different performances they love.
Laplace may arouse the interest of Xiao Xiaotao, but it may not arouse the interest of the first interviewer.
Therefore, now Laplace does not need to go through the first interviewer, but can directly perform a whale sucking water and get the opportunity to ask her questions. In Xiao Xiaotao's view, this is definitely Laplace's luck.
Laplace did not like Xiao Xiaotao's arrogant attitude. However, considering the other party's mysterious identity, Laplace did not show it. He just pondered for a moment and said, "I can perform a swallowing memory, but how can you
Look? Where to look?"
Seeing Laplace relent, Xiao Xiaotao's eyes lit up and she quickly said: "You just have to perform, I am right here and can see all the scenery around me."
Laplace nodded, no longer paying attention to Xiao Xiaotao, but looked at Angel.
Angel "Do you really want to perform?"
Laplace "It's not troublesome for me to swallow the memories around me. As she said, this is my daily life."
Laplace didn't mind showing off his daily routine. He didn't agree before because he was too lazy to pay attention to an uninvited guest. Now that Xiaoxiaotao has offered a "price" and has some motivation, it doesn't hurt to show it off.
Lapras paused for a moment, "However, when I swallow my memories, the energy around me may explode. So, you may not be able to stay with me for the time being. Should I send you to the heights of consciousness first?"
Angel didn't think much and nodded in agreement. He only had a little consciousness now, but he didn't have Xiao Xiaotao's ability to observe the sky and the earth. Even if he was allowed to stay on Laplace's back, he wouldn't be able to see it.
anything.
Therefore, it is okay to leave temporarily.
Soon, Angel was sent back to the void of consciousness by Laplace.
In the void of consciousness surrounded by stars, Angel fell into deep thought.
When he returned to the void of consciousness, he slowly rose up and caught a glimpse of Laplace's true form.
He saw the familiar full moon and the huge head half exposed in the water.
He previously thought that Laplace's true form was a gigantic beast thousands of meters tall, but when he peeked into a corner, he found that his size was still too small.
The smaller half of the head of Laplace's real body has already reached several thousand meters. From the location of the "Needle Forest Mountain" where they were before, it is at most Laplace's "Brow Peak".
From this we can see how huge Laplace's true form is.
Not at all smaller than those void monsters.
Moreover, Laplace is a creature that is loved by the will of the Sun Mirror Realm, and it is estimated to be stronger than void monsters of the same level.
You know, human wizards of the same level generally cannot defeat monsters, and void monsters are stronger than ordinary monsters.
If you really calculate it this way, with Laplace's current peak level three strength, he might be able to compare with a legendary wizard?
Of course, this is just Angel's ignorant calculation, and whether it is true or not is not known.
The only thing Angel is sure of is that if Laplace's true form comes to the Southern Region, it will probably be similar to the arrival of the devil, and few people can resist it.
Although it was just a glimpse, Angel thought of more.
I was shocked by Laplace's majesty and power, but I was also glad that I had found a good partner and had such a strong backer. The promotion of Dream Crystal in the Mirror Realm would not be a big problem.
"Laplace is so huge. If he really opened his mouth to swallow memories, the scene would probably be very shocking." At this moment, Angel also understood a little bit why Xiao Xiaotao was so determined to watch Laplace swallow memories.
Just thinking about it, he felt how grand this scene was.
While thinking about the grand scene of "a whale swallowing water", Angel was also thinking about Xiao Xiaotao's identity.
Laplace didn't pay much attention to Xiao Xiaotao, but Angel felt that
The appearance of Xiao Xiaotao may be some kind of precursor... You must know that the real area corresponding to the White Sun Mirror Territory includes the Southern Territory.
Could Xiao Xiaotao's real body be near the Southern Territory?
And his identity as a theater interviewer... made Angel think of some possibility.
…
The time spent in the void of consciousness was difficult to calculate. Angel only felt that after a moment, the familiar mirror appeared in front of him again.
Laplace's voice also came from the surrounding stars: "My performance is over. Xiao Xiaotao has agreed to answer the questions. You can come out now."
Angel didn't hesitate and directly reached out his hand into the mirror.
With the feeling of falling, Angel returned to reality from the void of consciousness.
This time when he fell, Angel did not see the full moon that represented Laplace's eyes, but he saw the rough sea of empty mirrors nearby.
Obviously, the constantly rising and falling "sea surface" is the aftermath of Laplace's whale swallowing water.
Just the aftermath can shatter tens of thousands of memory images. It can be seen that the scene when the whale swallows water is probably even more shocking.
This scene is indeed worthy of the "performance" that Xiao Xiaotao calls it.
If it were Angel who performed, he really wouldn't be confident that he could get Xiao Xiaotao's attention.
A few seconds later, Angel landed safely. He landed at the junction of the wasteland and the needle forest.
The reason why he did not fall near the Crystal Cabin is because every hair in the needle forest is entangled with the power of memory. If Angel came to the needle forest, his consciousness would most likely be intertwined with the memories entangled with these hairs, resulting in some
Unnecessary consequences.
The best way is to descend into the wasteland and let Laplace lead him in.
Similarly, this time it was the black-haired Laplace who came just now.
She led Angel and walked quickly towards the Crystal House. As she walked, she talked about Xiao Xiaotao's situation: "I just talked with her, and she will stay in the oil painting for about ten minutes. What do you have?
If you have any questions, feel free to ask her."
"However, there are rules for asking her questions."
"She can answer you any ordinary questions as she pleases, with no limit on the number of times; but if it involves questions about fate and secret knowledge, according to her rules, she can only answer three."
"You need to be careful when asking these three questions. Because if she can't answer them, it's still a question."
"If you want to ask any questions, especially secret questions, we can discuss it first... maybe I know some of the questions."
If you ask Laplace, she can answer Angel without any restrictions. But if you ask Xiao Xiaotao, it will consume one question opportunity.
Therefore, for some secret issues, you can discuss them with Laplace first to avoid wasting opportunities.
While Angel nodded, he secretly discussed with Laplace how to ask the question.
Ultimately they identified three issues.
Two of the questions are related to Angel, and the other question is asked by Laplace.
Originally, Angel was too embarrassed to take up the opportunity to ask questions. He felt that he had not contributed much and it would be enough if he could just ask some ordinary questions.
However, Laplace said very bluntly, "I am not at all confused, and she may not necessarily know the path I am pursuing."
What Laplace said was not a lie. If she hadn't thought that the mysterious spirit might improve Angel's alchemy skills, she wouldn't even bother to pay attention to Xiao Xiaotao.
Laplace also didn't care about the three opportunities given by Xiao Xiaotao to ask questions.
If Angel didn't insist, she wouldn't even want to ask a question.
In short, the final question allocation is like this. The ordinary questions will be asked after the general questions. Within ten minutes, three secret questions will be asked first.
Soon, they arrived at the Crystal Cabin.
Xiao Xiaotao in the oil painting was impatient to wait. "Hurry up, hurry up, there are more interviewers who are about to reach the second level. I have to go back quickly. If you have any questions, ask them quickly."
Angel and Laplace looked at each other, then he took a step back, and Laplace stepped forward first to ask the first question.
It was Angel's arrangement to let Laplace ask questions first.
After all, Laplace fought for the opportunity to ask questions. To show respect, she took the first place.
However, Angel did not know what exactly Laplace would ask.
Not to mention Angel, Xiao Xiaotao also stared at Laplace curiously: "Your performance just now was wonderful. If you were in the theater, I would give you a pass for the second round of interviews... Do you have anything to ask?"
Of?」
Laplace wanted to say that she had nothing to ask...but considering the agreement with Angel, she still did not say what was in her heart.
Instead, he said calmly: "I am using up the opportunity to ask a secret question. As for the specific question, I will not ask it. You can simply tell me a secret message related to the Mirror Realm or the Wizarding World that neither he nor I know.
Remember, keep it short."
Laplace still wanted to leave more time to Angel, so he asked such a question.
"Is it so casual?" Xiao Tao muttered, "When you ask this question, I don't know what to say."
Laplace's question seems random, but it's actually not that random.
It not only tested Xiao Xiaotao's intelligence range, but also tested Xiao Xiaotao's ability.
You must know that her question has two "premises": first, the secret information that neither she nor Angel knows. Second, the scope of the secret information is limited to the Mirror Realm and the Wizarding World.
Angel is too young and may not know much secret information; but Laplace is different. She sits on the Sea of Sky Mirrors, an information network that can connect all realms. The information she has learned can be found in countless pan-dimensional places.
noodle.
He has an even deeper understanding of the Mirror Realm’s own intelligence.
Information about the wizarding world is often told by wise men, and she also knows it very well.
Therefore, if the information Xiao Xiaotao said is known information, it means that Xiao Xiaotao's screening ability is very weak.
After Angel asked questions, he probably needed to adjust his strategy.
In other words, Laplace's seemingly random question was not only testing Xiao Xiaotao's ability, but also setting a model for Angel's subsequent questions.
