After reading the overview of the main mission, Gleipnir was not too surprised.
She had already made some assumptions when she heard the group of people at the corridor door cursing.
As expected, the main mission is related to the core change of the beauty pageant.
Therefore, seeing that it was the main plot that asked them to persuade the chief planner to bring order to the chaos, Gleipnir felt very calm.
However, when she saw the countdown, her mood finally changed.
Isn’t the 48-hour countdown a bit too long?
She didn't care, the worst she could do was ignore this task and log off directly, but... Starworm couldn't log off.
The Starworm itself can only stay in the Dream Crystal Plains for six days. Wouldn't it be a bit bad if we waste two days here?
Gleipnir frowned, silently thinking of countermeasures.
Looking at the words on the prompt for Wonderland...she suddenly thought of a possibility.
The main mission is for them to "persuade the chief planner". If "persuasion fails", will it be equivalent to "mission failure"?
Think of this.
Gleipnir decided to give it a try.
She told Starworm her plan: "I will negotiate with the chief planner later. If I disappear, it means that my idea is feasible. You can then act according to my plan."
Starworm actually had some other thoughts in his mind, but looking at Gleipnir's firm eyes, he finally said nothing and nodded: "Okay."
Next, Gleipnir took action.
She pushed open the glass door and walked into Prada Media Company.
About ten minutes later.
Graipnir silently opened the door and walked out. Following her return, there was a burst of mocking laughter from inside the door.
From the sarcasm coming from the door, we could tell that Gleipnir's "persuasion failed", but she did not disappear, which meant...the main mission did not fail.
After the door closed and the scolding subsided, Gleipnir revealed his experience after joining the media company.
Although Prada Media Company is no longer what it used to be, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and the company still has many employees.
After she entered, she learned about the chief planner's office from the employees on the pretext of renting a vacant shop in the building.
and met successfully.
There is a sign on the chief planner's desk with his name: Yusup.
When I saw the name of the main planner, the prompt from Wonderland came as expected.
"Yusup"
"As the new chief planner of Prada Media Company, Yusup has extremely lofty ideals. He hopes to rejuvenate the "Prada Beauty Pageant" in his own hands and become the first among the three real competitions. He Although he is an idealist, he is also a pragmatist. He knows very well that it is not easy to revive the beauty pageant after it has been blocked several times by the official "Fashion Guild". To put it bluntly, One of the key problems is... no money."
"Yusup is a key figure in the main mission."
Yusup does not have any side missions, but there are corresponding fairyland prompts. The reason lies in the last sentence: He is a key figure in the main mission.
In other words, if you meet someone later who does not have a side mission and also has a fairyland prompt, then there is a high probability that the other person is related to the main mission.
However, these are not important for now.
From the NPC information of Yusup, we can know that he actually wants to run the "Prada Beauty Pageant" in his heart. It is precisely because of this desire in his heart that it is finally possible to "rectify the chaos." On the contrary, if Yusup himself Without any ideals, it is impossible to change the other person's mind.
Therefore, the key to completing the second round of main missions, the information about Wonderland has been directly revealed.
That is - money.
As long as they can get a lot of money, they can complete the second main task and make Yusup change his mind.
Gleipnir understood the key clues to the second round of the main mission, but she didn't care. She came not to complete the mission this time, but to fail the mission.
How to make "persuasion mission fail"?
Since Yusup was short of money, Gleipnir did the opposite, relying on empty words to paint the pie without realizing any practical benefits.
Just as Gleipnir expected.
In less than five minutes, Yusup had someone "fight" her out. Amidst waves of ridicule, Gleipnir's "persuasion mission failed."
But the main mission...has no impact at all.
Gleipnir sighed and looked at the starworm: "
Therefore, if persuasion fails alone, there is no way to cause the main storyline to fail. We only have two options now. We have to wait 48 hours before the mission automatically fails."
"want……"
When Gleipnir mentioned the second option, he suddenly stopped, as if he was hesitating whether to continue.
Starworm understood what she meant and said it for her: "Yes, let's complete the persuasion mission as soon as possible and enter the next round of the main plot."
Gleipnir laughed and nodded: "Yes, but what the next round of main missions will be is still unknown. The countdown may be shorter, it may be longer, or there may even be no countdown."
"So, after I thought about it carefully, there is actually no need to spend energy completing this round of tasks for the unknown next round of tasks."
After Greipnir finished speaking, he looked at Starworm intently: "What about you, what do you think? Do you decide to complete the second round of missions, or do you want to wait 48 hours?"
Starworm did not hesitate at all and chuckled: "I choose to wait for 48 hours."
In fact, when Gleipnir tried to fail the mission before, Starworm wanted to say it.
He didn't care too much about the 48-hour countdown.
The choice to "complete the first round of tasks" was his own decision at the beginning; therefore, he will bear any consequences that may arise in the future.
48 hours... although it was quite long, it was actually within his acceptable range.
Gleipnir has said before that the fairyland system is the core element of the Crystal Plain of Dreams. He spent 48 hours in depth exploration in the fairyland. In fact, it is not a waste of time, but also a kind of observation.
Two days later, he would not be able to go out and explore other things in the Dream Crystal Plains.
Therefore, he calmly accepted the 48-hour countdown and would just explore the modern city at worst.
Taking advantage of this time, he completed the other two rumors that were previously rewarded, and maybe he could be rewarded with a complete fashion magic. - He really wanted to use the fashion magic himself.
In his mind, fashion magic comes from fairyland, and fairyland is the core system of Dream Crystal. Isn't trying fashion magic equivalent to trying the energy system of Dream Crystal?
Isn't this also a kind of in-depth observation?
You know, Starworm has followed the Star Sea Train to many worlds and observed many worlds. The energy systems of those worlds are not compatible, and he has no way to try it himself.
This time I have the opportunity to try a new fashionable magic system in Wonderland, which is not a loss.
On the other side, after hearing Starworm's decision, Gleipnir asked curiously: "Since you decided to stay here until the mission fails, what are you going to do in the next 48 hours?"
"Explore the city, search for rumors, and try fashion magic." Starworm said without hesitation.
Seeing that the starworm had its own goal, Gleipnir also breathed a sigh of relief.
"What about you?" Starworm looked at Grapnir: "Do you want to explore the remaining two rumors with me?"
Starworm stretched out his hand and invited him sincerely.
Graipnir was silent for two seconds, but still shook his head: "I actually want to explore with you, but I still have a lot of things to deal with. So, we can only part ways here for the time being."
There are too many things that are too busy in reality. As the talkative person brought to the forefront by the "Dream Mirror Organization", it is impossible for Gleipnir to waste time in this dungeon.
She sighed and said softly:
"I have given you the manor key card. We will meet you at the manor after you leave the instance in 48 hours."
Being rejected, although Starworm felt a little regretful, he didn't think much about it and nodded: "Okay."
He had not forgotten that he had promised Gleipnir before to tell her what he had seen.
After confirming the separation, Starworm prepared to explore the Modern City alone, while Gleipnir prepared to wait for Starworm to leave before going offline.
However, just when Star Bug was about to disappear from the corridor, she suddenly thought of something.
He shouted: "By the way, I have a question for you."
Three minutes later, in an uninhabited corner outside the Prada Media Company building.
Gleipnir looked at the starworm and said softly: "Have you heard of Hulifa?"
"Hulifa?" Starworm didn't react at first when he heard the name. It wasn't until he thought about it for a moment that he suddenly came back to his senses: "Are you talking about the disaster puppet Hulifa? "
Gleipnir nodded: "That's her."
"Why did you suddenly mention her... She is a taboo existence in the boundless plane."
Gleipnir did not explain, but just asked: "What if you encounter a puppet of disaster?"
, what should we do?”
"Meet the Doom Puppet?" Starworm looked at Gleipnir strangely: "I don't know who you are talking about who met the Doom Puppet, but if it is you, I suggest you just accept death if you encounter the Doom Puppet. "
"Even if you are a legendary existence, if you encounter a puppet in trouble, the chance of surviving is very small."
Next, Starworm told the information he knew about the Doom Puppet.
The information he provided almost all overlapped with that of the Sun and Moon Intelligence Agency, but he did mention many cases of disaster puppet transformations that even the Sun and Moon Intelligence Agency were not aware of, and even the Lawful Guild had not recorded.
But these cases still have no reference in Dream Crystal Plains.
Because the problems and requirements raised by the Doom Puppet are completely random, the previous cases are only for reference and have little value.
Although Gleipnir had already expected it, he was still a little disappointed after hearing Starworm's answer.
"No more questions, let's part ways."
As Gleipnir spoke, he signaled that the starworm could leave.
Starworm thought for a while and said: "I once heard a rumor that each of the top five ranks of the Star Sea Train has the ability to solve disordered objects."
"If you really encounter a puppet in trouble and want to find someone to solve it, maybe you can talk to the train conductor later."
Gleipnir: "The owl?"
Starworm nodded: "Your Excellency, the train conductor, is in the top five positions. Maybe he has a way to solve it."
Graipnir thought for a few seconds and nodded casually: "I understand."
Starworm didn't say anything more, and he didn't ask for information about the "Disaster Puppet". He knew what things should be inquired about and what things should not be inquired about.
The Puppet of Disaster is one of those things that you shouldn't pry into.
Starworm waved goodbye to Gleipnir and disappeared at the end of the street.
Graipnir, however, did not go offline immediately, but whispered: "I planned to explore this dungeon before, but now I find that the water in this dungeon is too deep."
In the silent space, an echo suddenly sounded.
"So, you don't plan to conquer this dungeon?"
There is no doubt that the person speaking was Angel outside the copy.
Gleipnir nodded: "I don't plan on it anymore. It seems that this copy is not suitable for immigrants at the moment. The fashion monster is too weird. No one knows whether it will be replaced suddenly."
"If you want to immigrate, you can only pass this dungeon perfectly, but it is not that easy to pass this dungeon perfectly."
After the words fell, Angel's voice came slowly after about tens of seconds: "I am quite interested in this copy."
Angel's words not only stunned Graipnir, but even Laplace outside the copy looked at Angel in surprise.
"Why?"
"There's not much reason. I just think the background of this dungeon is interesting." Angel: "Where the fashion monster is hidden makes me very curious. Is it really hidden in another dimension, or is it like Geralt? What you said is hidden in people’s hearts?”
"If they are human hearts, can I detect them using the art of true illusion?"
After hearing Angel's answer, Gleipnir seemed to understand something.
Angel probably felt that this fashion monster was too hidden, which aroused his desire to challenge.
Laplace thought so too.
But the actual situation is actually somewhat different from what they imagined.
The setting of fashionable monsters has indeed aroused Angel's interest in exploring. But what really concerns Angel is the background of this world.
Putting aside the extraordinary settings of fashion magic, this modern city is too much like those metropolises on the holographic flat earth.
Although Angel didn't think that Modern City was related to the earth, he couldn't help but make a comparison.
Before, he secretly used his God's perspective to look at various libraries in Modern City, trying to find the history of the city and the world in which it was located... But unfortunately, he found a little bit of history, but nothing.
There is no use for anything else.
But Angel did not give up, because books are written by people.
There is no record in the book, so will there be some relevant memories in the minds of the countless NPCs in Modern City?
This is actually the reason why Angel is interested and even wants to go in and have some contact in person.
However, these are all related to "Earth", and Angel does not intend to say it out loud.
So I found an excuse to "explore fashion monsters".
——But having said that, he is indeed somewhat interested in fashion monsters.
