After leaving the Wetland Castle Sale, Angel and Laplace walked directly to the Bloodstone Casino opposite.
When Angel heard the word "casino", he subconsciously thought of a smoky, noisy and dark place. However, when he entered the Bloodstone Casino, he found that the casino here was different from the casino he imagined.
Although there were many people inside, they were all quiet, each holding a stone and observing with a magnifying glass.
If this place hadn't been called a "casino," Angel would have even suspected that this place was a geological institute.
But having said that, studying stones with a magnifying glass... this reminded Angel of some treasure appraisal novels in the holographic tablet.
"Could this be... gambling on stones?" Angel muttered in a low voice.
"What are you talking about? Gambling on stones?" Laplace turned around and looked over.
Angel shook his head: "No, I'm just curious why they are holding the stone. Isn't this a casino? Is the stone here for gambling?"
Laplace nodded: "It is true that you use stones to gamble, because some of those stones contain blood minerals."
While Laplace was talking, Angel saw a large pile of stones not far away. There was also a sign in front of the stones, which recorded the functions of these stones in special words.
The reason why it is called "special characters" is because Angel did not recognize the type of characters on the sign, but after staring at it for a long time, he somehow understood the meaning of the characters in his consciousness.
Is this supposed to be some kind of text transmitted through consciousness?
When Angel was confused, Laplace said lightly: "This is a technique of the Tooth Fairy. The standing sign is not a text, but a pattern drawn by the Tooth Fairy with special ink. Through this pattern, you can
Connect the consciousness of intelligent life and transmit the existing information engraved on the pattern."
Angel: "Is there such a technology?"
Laplace: "This is not a technology they independently researched, but an imitation."
There are many energy beings in the Mirror Realm, but they cannot speak or record them in writing. Their communication relies more on the communication of spirit, consciousness or soul.
The Ancient Tooth Fairy imitates these energy beings and stores energy information in patterns. When other people's brainwaves, souls, spirits or consciousness come into contact with the patterns, they can extract the corresponding energy information from the patterns.
In Laplace's view, this technique was a very poor imitation.
However, in Angel's opinion, this is also a very interesting experience. Moreover, regardless of the low technical content, the important thing is that the ancient tooth fairy created this idea.
Many times, the idea is more important than the research itself.
Moreover, most profound technologies are actually developed from a simple idea.
Although this technology can currently only be used as a "universal translator," it may be possible to expand broader technological prospects from these simple ideas in the future.
Therefore, Angel is quite interested in this "energy expression".
"If you are interested in this technology, I can teach you later." Laplace said calmly.
Angel naturally would not refuse. He himself wanted to find the Laplace system to learn about the energy genealogy of the Mirror Realm, so that he could also take the opportunity to learn about energy expression.
Let’s put the study aside for now.
Angel's attention returned to the standing sign.
Based on the energy expression on the standing card, Angel roughly understood the situation of Bloodstone Casino.
Indeed, as Laplace said, gambling here is about gambling on stones.
To be precise, the bet is on the "demon blood mine" hidden under the stone shell.
These stones that are suspected of containing "demon blood minerals" are called "blood stones" by the Ancient Tooth Fairy.
Since the blood stone is related to the Ancient Tooth Fairy, it is not difficult to deduce that the origin of the blood stone is...the Sea of Empty Mirrors.
The Ancient Tooth Fairy found blood stones in the Sea of Empty Mirrors, and would open some of them by himself, taking out the magic blood ore inside and selling them. For those blood stones whose types were difficult to identify, he would throw them into the casino for gamblers to open on their own.
This kind of blood stone that has been selected by the Ancient Tooth Fairy in advance will basically be at a loss after purchase. Either it is a magic blood ore with too weak blood energy, or there is no magic blood ore in it at all.
However, there are also some high-level magic blood mines that have restrained blood energy and have escaped the appraisal of the Ancient Tooth Fairy.
And once a gambler bets on this high-grade magic blood mine, it will be a huge profit.
Of course... the probability of this is very small, but there are so many gamblers that I can't bear it.
As long as they are gamblers, they will basically have the mentality of "the world revolves around me". When they gamble, they will only look at successful cases; they will forget about failed cases.
This is why there are so many people at Bloodstone Casino.
Angel read the content on the sign and further confirmed that this was probably the Mirror Realm version of "Gambling Stone".
However, he also had some doubts.
The biggest reason why holographic tablets are so unique in novels is because it is difficult for technology to detect the gems in the stones, which makes the protagonist unique.
But the gamblers here are basically extraordinary beings. If they want to use their spiritual power to penetrate into the blood stone, won't they know what's going on in the blood stone?
Angel asked his doubts.
Laplace was not surprised by this: "Because you are a conscious body now and cannot see the specific situation of those blood stones. In fact, the reason is very simple."
Angel: "Is there anything abnormal about those blood stones?"
Laplace nodded: "The surface of those blood stones is still covered with the breath of the Sea of Empty Mirrors. It will be fine if you just cut it open, but if you rashly contaminate it with mental power, you may be affected by the Sea of Empty Mirrors.
Influence."
Of course, this kind of influence is unlikely to turn you into a hollow person, but it is very likely to cause irreversible mental damage to you.
For this reason, these gamblers do not dare to use mental power to investigate. They can only choose the stone they want through observation with a magnifying glass and past experience.
"This aura of the Sea of Empty Mirrors is of no use to people with high mental power limits or strong mental power resistance."
"However, this kind of people don't look down on these blood stones."
This chapter is not over yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Laplace can easily see the blood minerals in the blood stones, and is completely unaffected by the so-called aura of the Sea of Empty Mirrors, but she is not at all
I want to go and participate in stone gambling.
Because it's not necessary.
The Ancient Tooth Fairy has other ways to identify the truly cherished magic blood mines, even if the artifacts are hidden away. Most of these magic blood mines, even if there are high-level magic blood mines, were released by the Ancient Tooth Fairy himself.
If the boss pretends to be blind and gambles on stones, he won't make much money here, but will lose his style.
But then again, the reason Laplace knows so much about gambling is because Luigi...occasionally goes to the Tooth Fairy's casino to pretend to be blind.
Unlike Laplace, Angel is still a little interested in blood stones. After all, no matter how bad it is, it is still an alchemical consumable.
However, he is still a conscious body and does not have any condensed crystals on his body. Even if he can see through the blood minerals in the blood stone, he cannot afford it.
Therefore, he could only give up temporarily and get his thoughts back on track.
"According to the clerk from the Divine Eye Tribe, the parrot stayed here for nearly a quarter of an hour. Could it be that he is also here to open the blood stone?" Angel looked around, wanting to see where the clerk of the blood stone store was.
But after looking for a long time, I only saw people studying stones, and not a single salesperson.
Just when Angel was confused, he found that Laplace had walked aside. When he followed him, he saw that Laplace was already talking to a "clerk".
When Angel saw the "clerk", he finally understood why he had not seen him before.
He is so mini, only about the size of a palm.
It was an ancient tooth fairy wearing a baby tooth cap and a long white beard. Although he looked very old, he was wearing a colorful robe and the wings on his back were also colorful, a bit like... colored light reflected in the sun.
fly wings.
This ancient tooth fairy is holding an iron spoon about the same size as his body and digging into a glass jar in front of him.
A faint scent of nectar wafts out of the jar.
When Laplace was talking to him, he didn't forget to lick the remaining nectar on the spoon.
"Are you friends of Longya Qin?" The ancient tooth fairy smiled with his whole facial features wrinkled together: "Since you are friends of Elder Qin, you are also friends of my Baby Tooth Papa."
Angel: "..." Baby tooth Papa? Are you sure you are not the baby tooth daddy?
Moreover, do you believe us when we say we are Longya Qin’s friends? Don’t you even doubt it?
"Whatever you want to ask, just ask. As long as I know, I will tell you everything." Baby Tooth Papa patted his chest and solemnly promised... If he didn't lick the nectar when he promised, it would be even better.
Convincing.
Laplace used his aura to simulate the images of a parrot and Luigi: "I wonder if you have seen this person before?"
As they asked, Baby Tooth Papa slowly looked at the phantom next to him.
When he saw the parrot, Baby Tooth Papa's expression paused.
After a while, he finally said: "What are you asking him for?"
Angel: "...Didn't you just say that you know everything you know?"
Baby Tooth Papa said angrily: "I'm not stupid. Do I believe you when you say you are Elder Qin's friends? Who knows if you are here to spy on secrets."
Angel understood, how could he be so enthusiastic about this guy just now and believe him as soon as he said it, just to heighten the atmosphere?
But that's right. How could a person who dared to guard the casino alone be innocent?
Laplace didn't care and said calmly: "Do you have a display book? You can ask your leader for my name."
Baby Tooth Papa murmured in a low voice: "Even if the leader knows your name, your name can still be fake. Just like I can also say that I am Wolf Fang. Flute Bone."
Hearing Baby Tooth Papa's rebuttal, Laplace was not angry and just said calmly: "No one dares to pretend to be my name."
Such confidence made Baby Tooth Papa afraid to say anything.
Anyone who dares to say such things is either a boss or a madman. And the Laplace in front of him does not look like a madman.
Baby Tooth Papa thought for a while and quickly asked Laplace's name, then quickly took out the display book and asked the leader through the display book.
Generally speaking, there was no emergency on his side, and even if the leader replied to his message, it would probably be more than ten or twenty minutes later.
But when he announced Laplace's name.
Almost instantly, he received a message from his leader.
"Fully cooperate."
Although he didn't go into details, this short sentence and the attitude of replying instantly made Baby Tooth Papa think a lot.
There is no doubt that Laplace is someone he cannot afford to offend.
Baby Tooth Papa immediately put away his previous frivolous attitude, pushed the honey pot aside, threw the spoon on the table, and bowed to Laplace seriously: "I didn't know that the distinguished guest was coming, and I was rude before.
"
Laplace: "I don't want to hear these boring words, answer my question."
Baby Tooth Papa nodded hurriedly: "I understand. The person you asked just now is actually one of our external appraisers..."
Angel: "Appraiser? Appraisal of what, these blood stones?"
Baby Tooth Papa nodded: "Yes, he calls himself Parrot. He is a human wizard, and he is a wizard on the blood side. He is very familiar with all kinds of demon blood. Even if the blood stone here is covered by confusion, he
We can also judge from some characteristics what kind of demon blood ore will appear inside."
The "confidence" in Baby Tooth Papa's mouth is undoubtedly the breath of the Sea of Empty Mirror.
Angel: "So, he has been working with you for a long time?"
Baby Tooth Papa nodded: "It's been a while. Before the regular gathering, we had been in contact with the parrot."
According to Baby Tooth Papa, Parrot had already served as the appraiser of the Bloodstone Casino half a month ago. However, at that time, the Parrot was at the Bloodstone Casino in Pippi Castle.
Baby Tooth Papa: "He seems to have been living in Pipi Castle. This time he came to the regular gathering with Piluxiu... By the way, the parrot cooperated with us and seemed to be planning to leave the Mirror Realm, but the Mirror Realm channel is not
It is also a secret for us Mirror Sea scholars, so we did not agree to him. However, considering his ability to identify blood stones, we did not refuse him..."
These words of Baby Tooth Papa are basically consistent with the information they received from the parrot before.
Parrot once said that he wanted to ask the Ancient Tooth Fairy to help him leave the Mirror Realm, but it didn't take shape in the end.
Angel: "The parrot came just now, right?"
Baby Tooth Papa nodded: "Yes, I came with this person in the illusion."
Angel: "What did they do here?"
Baby Tooth Papa thought for a while: "I didn't do anything. I just helped me identify a small batch of newly arrived blood stones."
"Speaking of which, there is no high-grade demon blood ore in this new batch of blood stones."
Angel: "...There is no need to talk about these things."
Baby Tooth Papa nodded obediently.
Angel thought for a while and continued: "Then have you seen the parrot communicating with its companions?"
Baby Tooth Papa nodded without hesitation: "Yes, they have been chatting."
Angel's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "Then did you hear what they were talking about?"
Baby Tooth Papa thought about it seriously: "I didn't listen carefully to the specific conversation. But basically it was the parrot talking, and his companions rarely spoke."
