The spirituality Angel felt walked in the void of consciousness for several minutes. But when they came from the void of consciousness, only two seconds had actually passed in the outside world.
The sense of time in reality and the sense of time in the void of consciousness are completely different things.
This weird feeling of not being able to account for the time made Angel feel a little confused.
However, when he first went to see Laplace, Angel had already experienced a change in his sense of time. With experience, this time's trance was only for a moment, and he quickly returned to normal.
When Angel opened his eyes again, he found that he had left the void of consciousness.
They are floating in mid-air.
Surrounded by criss-crossing sky streets, various forms of extraordinary beings shuttle back and forth among them.
About two meters below their feet, there was a stone man setting up a stall on a flying carpet.
Five or six meters above them, there was a crowd gathered, watching a teacup head introduce the specialties of Teluga City.
The location where Angel and Laplace appeared was exactly in the center of such a three-dimensional sky street.
Busy tourists were constantly shuttling around them, but miraculously, no one laid eyes on them.
It's as if they don't exist.
No one saw the large silver mirror behind Angel and Laplace.
The two of them are like ghosts who are not in this time and space, ignored by everyone.
"They can't see us. We seem to have left the void of consciousness, but in fact we are still one level away from the real outside world." Perhaps seeing the doubt in Angel's eyes, Laplace explained.
To use an analogy, if people outside are in the "1" dimension, then they are in the "1" dimension.
It seems very close, and you can even see everything in the outside world, but in fact it is still 1.
As high digits, they can observe everything in the low digits. However, the low digits cannot go beyond 1 and see them on the high digit interface.
This 1 is an insurmountable chasm for others around you.
Of course, this is not absolute. If there are people around who can travel consciously and observe from the perspective of consciousness without the physical body, they will still be discovered.
But this kind of existence either has special talent or is above legend.
This is just one of the many stall areas in Crystal City. Most of the stalls here are fringe figures of various ethnic groups, and it is basically impossible for anyone to observe them.
It is precisely because of this that the two of them and the glowing mirror behind them are ignored by the people around them.
"If people around us can't see us, how can we communicate with the parrots?" Angel asked.
"Don't worry, I'll let the parrot see us." Laplace didn't say anything, but just motioned for Angel to follow her.
Angel didn't ask why.
Angel knows Laplace very well. If she doesn't explain, there are basically two reasons: either it involves some kind of secret, and it is not a good thing to know; or the level of knowledge exceeds the scope of Angel's understanding.
It's like explaining in vain. Just like you can't tell a summer insect about ice in winter. Summer insects can't understand what winter is, nor what ice is. Without this concept, they can't imagine things beyond their cognition.
.
No matter which reason it was, it made no sense to Angel.
Since it has no meaning, there is no need to explain it.
Under the guidance of Laplace, they began to go to the location of the parrot.
When they didn't move before, Angel didn't notice the difference. As soon as they moved, a change suddenly occurred.
The world around him seemed to be frozen... No, it wasn't frozen. The people around him were still moving, but their movements were slowed down countless times.
In Angel's field of vision, only his and Laplace's movements were normal, and everything else was slowed down.
It was as if he and Laplace were living, colorful people, while everything around them was like an old black-and-white movie frozen in a certain scene.
However, this situation only occurs when they move. Once they stop, the normal flow of time resumes around them.
Is this the truth about the difference between the aura of consciousness and the sense of reality?
Angel didn't know the specific reason, but silently recorded his feelings at this time. If he has the opportunity to study similar topics in the future, this trip can be used as a reference.
After a while, they came to the small mirror where the parrot was.
Inside the mirror is Pilusi's shop, and Parrot's shop is included in it.
However, after they entered, they discovered that Pilu Xiu was in the shop, but the parrot was nowhere to be found.
If they were in the outside world, they might be able to lock the parrot's position through some spells, but now they are in "1" and cannot cast spells through the interface.
Laplace pondered for a moment and said, "Let me ask this Piluccio."
Asking? Angel's eyes lit up and he nodded slightly. He also wanted to see how Laplace intervened in the outside world.
However, Laplace's operation seemed completely confusing to Angel.
I saw Laplace walking directly in front of the sleepy store manager Pilu Xiu, her eyes faintly flickering with strange energy.
As for the Pilusi store manager, he was humming listlessly one second, but the next second, he blinked his eyelids and saw Laplace suddenly appearing in front of him.
"Ah...Eh?! You, when did you enter the store?" Store manager Pilu Xiu widened his eyes in surprise, looking at Laplace and Angel behind her.
"Just when you were dozing off." Laplace said calmly.
The store manager Piluxiu was stunned for a moment, and thought carefully, he had indeed dozed off before... It was because there were no customers, and the rat he invented for "training" and "refreshing" was bought again, he even more
Bored.
Did you really squint for a while?
So, these two people probably came in while he was dozing off... No wonder.
Pilusiu had no doubts about this statement, and he didn't pay much attention to Laplace and Angel. After all, they had been here before.
"Come here..." Pilu Xiu squinted: "Are you here to see the parrot too?"
"Yes, we have something to do with the parrot." Angel paused and asked softly: "You said 'yeah' just now. Could it be that someone came to see him before?"
Pilu Xiu held his face with one hand and said lazily: "Yes, someone came just now and called him out."
Someone called the parrot out? Angel frowned: "Then do you know where the parrot was called?"
Pilusiu glanced at Angel angrily: "Why do you ask me this question? You ask yourselves."
Angel: "???" Ask us? What does it mean?
Pilusiu: "Isn't the person who called him out the same person who came with you before?"
Angel was stunned: "You mean..."
Pilu Xiu waved his hand: "He's the one who came to me to ask if he had any music scores for sale!"
Angel and Laplace looked at each other, and both saw incredulity in each other's eyes.
There is no doubt that the person Pilu Xiu is talking about is Luigi!
But Angel knew very well that Luigi never called Luigi out from beginning to end.
Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Angel continued to ask: "Then did you hear where they went?"
Pilusiu shook his head directly: "I don't know, they said it in the cubicle, how do I know?"
Angel: "Then when did they leave?"
Piluxiu thought for a while and said: "About an hour, or an hour and a half ago, anyway, it's been a long time since I left."
While talking, Pilu Xiu was still beeping: "I don't know what the parrot is thinking, but he has packed up all the goods, as if he is going to go on a long trip with your companion."
Laplace gave Angel a look and signaled to speak outside.
Angel immediately understood and followed Laplace out of the shop.
When Pilusiu looked up again, he found that Laplace and Angel had disappeared. He didn't care, but murmured bitterly: "It's boring. I hate people who do it for free. If I don't buy something next time, I will
Say nothing."
…
On the other side, Angel and Laplace came to one side of the stall area.
Laplace whispered: "Someone disguised as Luigi and took the parrot away."
This is not a question or a discussion, but an affirmation.
As for why the parrot listened, it was probably because the fake Luigi asked the parrot to trust him on the pretext of "taking the parrot away". After all, they had signed a contract with the parrot and would take the parrot away as soon as possible.
When the parrot saw "Luigi" coming to fulfill the contract, he naturally doubted his presence. This also explains why the parrot packed up his gifts and looked like he was going on a far journey.
Because he is indeed going on a long trip, and if you think about it, there is a high probability that this is a one-way ticket that will never return.
Angel: "Then what should we do now?"
Laplace was silent for a moment: "Find the parrot."
Originally, Laplace agreed with Angel's opinion and tried not to get involved in this matter, but someone pretended to be Luigi and deceived the parrot, so this matter had something to do with them.
No matter who the other party is, Laplace can't stand the behavior of cheating by pretending to be "Luigi".
Angel also saw the dissatisfaction in Laplace's eyes, and he also supported Laplace's idea. After all, if he could disguise himself as Luigi this time, he might disguise himself as himself next time.
But now there is a real question before us: "How do we find the parrot? And the pretender?"
Laplace: "This is not difficult."
As he spoke, Laplace stretched out his fingertips into the void, and a blue-light sand table with the Crystal City Ring Castle as its main body appeared in front of them.
On this sand table, there are six coordinate areas emitting bright light.
Seeing this, Angel also understood what Laplace meant.
These six coordinates are exactly the places where the aura of God's Blood is the strongest that Xiao Hong had previously detected.
Among them, three shining bright spots are in the free trade market, which is the stall area where they are now; the other three bright spots are in other places outside the stall area.
Previously, Angel thought that the highlights outside the stall area were that the parrots had stopped in those places for a short time before coming to the stall area, so that they had the aura to stay there.
But now it seems that this is not the case, but after the parrot was taken away by the fake "Luigi", these coordinates were tainted with relevant atmosphere.
If this is deduced, the parrot should be among these coordinates at this time, or near these coordinates.
"I understand." Angel: "Then let's check them one by one according to these coordinates."
Laplace nodded.
Because Angel needs Laplace's help to travel in the void of consciousness, they cannot act separately and can only check the coordinates together.
It took them less than two minutes in the void of consciousness - maybe even less than half a second in the outside world - to check the coordinates of three of them in the stall area.
No.
The parrot is not in the stall area at this time. Thinking about it, he should be in the remaining three coordinates.
Angel and Laplace re-entered the true void of consciousness. Here, even if they stopped, the sense of time in the outside world was still slow.
Therefore, it is most convenient to communicate here without worrying about wasting time.
Angel and Laplace calculated it and found that the remaining three coordinates could be connected, much like a path. Among them, the coordinate closest to the stall area was an unknown area; the other two coordinates, one
It is in the corridor connecting Crystal City, and the other is an unknown ring-shaped fort.
If we take the stall area as the starting point and draw a line connecting the remaining three coordinates, then the final target location is... an unknown ring fort.
If the parrot is really deceived, his destination will be on a certain level of the ring fort.
Angel: "Shall we go directly to the ring fort?"
Laplace thought for a while: "Let's look at the coordinate points one by one. They are all on the same line anyway, so it won't take much time."
Angel also agreed with Laplace's decision. The so-called "drawing a line" is just what they think. Who knows whether the real situation is really like this?
If not, then you have missed it.
Therefore, although it is troublesome to check the coordinates one by one, you will not miss them.
Laplace took Angel back on the road. In the void of consciousness, endless light spots surrounded Angel like stars, and carried him with thrust, slowly pushing him further into the void.
After an unknown amount of time, Angel returned to the "1" interface.
When Angel opened his eyes again, he found that the surrounding area was still the "stall area", but it was no longer the same stall area they were in before.
If nothing unexpected happens, this is the "unknown area" of the coordinate point.
The so-called "unknown" simply means that Angel and Laplace don't know much about the internal layout of Crystal City and don't know the specific place names, so they named it "Unknown Area", which does not mean that it is mysterious.
At present, the "unknown area" where the first coordinate is located is the new stall area.
Maybe the parrot came here to hang out? Of course, it is also possible that it was deceived by the fake Luigi and wanted to follow him to "leave the Mirror Realm", and happened to stop here during the process.
