After resting for a few more minutes, until Kallen's face turned a little red and no longer as pale as before, they began to disassemble it for the second time.
The process of disassembling "Footnote: Phantom Mist" was very smooth, but the disassembly speed was a little slower than the disassembly of "Prologue: Manufacturing", and the disassembly accuracy was also higher.
Perhaps it is for this reason that the manufacturing points required to dismantle "Footnote: Phantom Mist" are also higher.
After the disassembly of "Footnote: Phantom Fog" was completed, even Angel's forehead had faint sweat seeping out.
The main thing is that it is necessary to control the output measurement of energy and to operate the gold-controlling scissors delicately. If there is a flaw in any step in the middle, all the previous efforts may be wasted.
Fortunately, Angel, as a wizard, has the means to control energy, otherwise there might be problems with this disassembly.
However, Angel also gained a lot from this experience of disassembling the pages of the book. Before, he always felt that the fashionable magic system was a bit like chasing food. As long as you have a magic book in your hand, you can use magic at will.
There is no need to worry about problems like "spell backlash".
But now it seems that he knows too little about fashion magic.
Those energy-consuming magics are actually no less sophisticated than wizards' spells, and they also require the magician to have strong control.
However, Angel still has some questions about the fashion magic system. For example: Wizards cast spells starting from studying the essence. Only by thoroughly studying their profession can they build a spell model and perform their actions. On the other hand, it seems that fashion magicians
As long as they hold the magic book and start performing operations, do they really not study the essence of fashion magic?
Judging from the situation in Modern City, it seems that few magicians study the nature of spellcasting.
If you want to dispel the charm of this question, you may need to know more about the world to get the answer.
…
Before dismantling the pages of the book, Kallen had thought that after the disassembly was completed, he would talk to Angel more to enhance their relationship.
After all, he owns the "Golden Scissors" and has no other organizations behind him. As long as the Hermits can treat each other sincerely, they may be able to gain a general.
But Kalyan's thoughts were beautiful, but reality slapped him hard.
After dismantling "Footnote: Phantom Mist", Kallen finally failed to control himself. He rolled his eyes and slumped down on the sofa.
He could feel some movements in the outside world, including Angel's worry and Xiaolu's exclamation, but his body just couldn't move, and he couldn't even open his eyelids.
The aftereffects of taking apart two special pages in a row... are still too big.
As Kallen's thoughts slowly became dull, and he was about to fall into a whirlpool of darkness and sweetness, he faintly heard Xiaolu saying goodbye to Angel, saying that he would help him return to the Hermitage.
Kallen really wanted to say to her: "Leave me alone, stay in touch with Angel more..."
I was helpless and couldn't speak.
I could only listen to Xiaolu and Angel saying goodbye.
Before his consciousness fell into a deep sleep, the only thought in Kallen's mind was: "Fortunately, I paid the money before breaking the page..."
Kallen fell asleep.
Xiaolu took Kalyan back to the Hermitage. She actually thought about chatting with Angel for a few more words, but Angel had said before that he had something urgent to do.
Even though Xiao Lu had the intention, after thinking about it, she decided to put off contacting her for today.
Building relationships is not something that can be accomplished in a day.
Anyway, she still has to help Angel sell the "looking clown". If this matter is handled well, she can also win Angel's favor.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lu said goodbye to Angel happily, and warned: "If you have any questions or need help, please feel free to contact me using the Hermit Ring. My code name in the Hermit Association is 'Xiao Lu'"
', just ask the receptionist to transfer it to me."
After bidding farewell to Xiaolu, Angel also left the Deep Black Market.
Next he was going to find Gleipnir and the Starworm.
Who to go to specifically depends on their mission progress.
Angel first looked at Greipnir from a god's perspective. Greipnir was still sleeping in the lake corridor in the Sona neighborhood. It seemed that he had not completed his mission.
Take a closer look at the task space.
Greipnir was still frantically drawing design drafts in the room. Compared with before, the paper balls thrown on the ground almost filled the floor. It was enough to show how many drafts Greipnir had drawn during this time.
Looking at Gleipnir, whose eyes were almost bloodshot, Angel was hesitant to say hello to her.
In the end, Angel chose not to speak in a hurry.
A minute later, when Gleipnir crumpled another design draft into a ball of paper, Angel took advantage of the gap and asked: "How are you... over there?"
Gleipnir's hand holding the pen paused, and after a while he said:
"I don't know if it's good or bad."
Angel: "What's wrong?"
Graipnir put down his pen, rubbed his sour eyes, and then said: "In this room, I was indeed influenced by Anna, and I quickly found the style and direction Anna wanted to paint."
"But even if I found the direction, I still didn't draw the perfect design I wanted."
As he spoke, Gleipnir picked up a few paper balls that he had discarded before, then opened them and placed them on the table.
"You'll know it when you see it."
Looking at it, Angel also discovered some problems.
Previously, when Greipnir was influenced by Anna, she couldn't finish half of her design draft, which meant that "Anna" didn't approve of the design.
Nowadays, Gleipnir's design drafts are basically completed to the end, and some of the design drafts are even complete.
If you can complete the design draft under Anna's influence, doesn't that mean you have Anna's approval?
Since Anna approved it, why did Gleipnir throw away the design draft?
Faced with Angel's question, Graipnir sighed: "Even if I draw the complete design draft, I can feel that Anna's influence has not disappeared, and she still feels dissatisfied."
Even though the style, direction, and color are all right, Anna is just not satisfied if she is not satisfied.
Graipnir thought her perception was wrong, so she took a complete design draft and went downstairs to throw it into the lake. The reaction given by Anna in the lake was still a big "X".
Anna doesn't approve.
This shows that Gleipnir's perception was correct. Even though the design draft was complete, it still failed.
Gleipnir: "When I threw it away halfway through the drawing, at least I could feel where there was a problem, and I could change it in the right direction. But now, I can feel that there is still a problem, but the direction to solve the problem is,
But I can’t feel it…”
"This feeling is like... I have taken ninety-nine steps, and I am just one step away from reaching the end. But in which direction this step is going, I have no idea."
Speaking of this, Gleipnir rubbed his swollen temples: "How about... you should do it?"
She almost wanted to give up now.
Perhaps, it would be easier for Angel to do the task than to continue spending time here. After all, Angel came to do the task and was also doing the task outside. With Angel's authority, as long as it is not a test of "technical", it should be
It will be done quickly.
Seeing Gleipnir's tired look, Angel became a little silent at this time.
When Angel asked Greipnir before if he could come, Greipnir still looked confident that "I can handle it."
But now, her appearance has changed in less than an hour, which is enough to show how much influence Anna has on her.
Angel thought for a moment and said, "Take out the complete design drawings and I'll take a look at them."
Gleipnir: "You want to give it a try too? That's fine. Maybe bystanders can see the shortcomings more easily."
Thinking of this, Gleipnir found a dozen complete design drafts from the paper ball on the floor, laid them out and placed them on the table in order.
The design gives people a very bright, strong color, and a very eye-catching impact. The lines of the clothing are relatively simple, emphasizing the geometric shape.
In addition, Graipnir also used a paintbrush to draw out the "material" texture of the clothing.
Plastic, metal sequins, laser fabrics...these materials are also very bold, and combined with the bright and strong contrasting colors, Angel felt a vague sense of familiarity.
Kind of like... pop style.
Pop style likes to use a large number of high-saturation and strong-contrast colors, such as bright red, bright yellow, sapphire blue, fluorescent green, etc., to attract the eye and create a lively and cheerful atmosphere.
At the same time, various concise lines are emphasized.
However, when pop style is used in clothing, most of it has some popular elements that emphasize characteristics...
The popular elements here generally refer to elements that are popular and recognized by the public, including patterns of various dramas, advertisements, celebrity idols, cartoon characters and other elements.
These patterns will be expressed in bright colors and applied to clothing through printing, hot stamping, and outline... and so on.
And in Anna's room, Angel really discovered a popular element.
And Angel happens to know this element.
——The Clown King.
On the wall of the room, there is a poster of the Clown King. In the magazine on the table, there are a large number of interviews with stage actor Jinx.
And the Clown King is played by Jinx.
The reason why Angel knows this is because when he completed the random task of "Who makes the clown laugh?", through Sisley's narration, Angel knew that the "Clown King" was very influential in Modern City.
A big popular drama.
The clown king's costume, whether it is exaggerated oil paint or the collision of various bright colors, is also perfectly in line with the reconstruction of popular elements in the pop style.
This discovery gave Angel an idea.
"How about putting a print of the Clown Emperor's face on your design?"
Gleipnir: "???" What is the Clown King?
Angel did not hide anything and simply stated his findings.
"Pop style? Popular elements? King of Clowns?" Greipnir fell into thinking: "I actually had the idea of adding patterns to clothes before, but I felt that this idea was a bit too common."
"If you add patterns directly, it is indeed very common. But if the colors can conflict and the matching patterns match, it will be a new idea." Angel: "Moreover, there are multiple elements of the Clown Emperor in the room.
, I feel less like a decoration and more like a task reminder."
Graipnir pondered for a moment and felt that what Angel said was reasonable.
"Then...let me try."
Thinking of this, Gleipnir tore off the poster of the Clown King and put Jinx's interview photos on the table, drawing inspiration while analyzing his facial features.
When everything was ready, Gleipnir began a new creation.
The design idea was the same as before, simple geometric lines, unique and trendy materials, and exaggerated bright colors. After everything was painted, she carefully painted the clown emperor's face on the costume.
At the moment she finished the design, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"No...no more!"
Angel: "What's gone?"
Graipnir: "When I finished the design draft before, I obviously felt a sense of sluggishness, which meant that Anna still didn't approve of it. But now, when I drew this design drawing, the sluggishness disappeared.
Got it!"
Gleipnir's expression was filled with surprise. What this meant was self-evident!
"You are right!" Gleipnir: "What is missing from my design draft is the popular element!"
"It turns out that this is Pop style..."
Gleipnir stood up excitedly: "I'm going to the lake to try now!"
Although Gleipnir hasn't seen Anna yet, she has an intuition that she will definitely be able to survive this time!
Sure enough, when she rushed downstairs to the lake and threw the design draft into the lake, Anna's pale arm that had always been marked with an "X" did not float up.
Instead, it was Anna's true soul that floated out from the water.
She held the design draft drawn by Gleipnir in her hand and kept admiring it. The eyes that once had paranoia were also full of intoxication with joy.
She stretched out her fingers and touched them, as if she could touch the clothes in the painting through the design.
...Just when Gleipnir thought Anna was a little crazy, she actually pulled out an identical long dress from the design draft.
The pop-style long skirt emits a dazzling light, like rainbows emerging from it.
Finally, it merged into Anna's soul.
When Greipnir opened his eyes again, Anna's pure white dress had been replaced by Greipnir's design.
The exaggerated colors, bright sense of movement, and the Joker King's playful and cursing prints completely transformed the plain white Anna into a dynamic, even hip-hop Anna.
Anna's soul slowly glows with this suit of clothes.
When the light reached its peak, Anna's figure slowly disappeared, and only a soft voice echoed in the wind.
"Thanks."
"Being submerged in glory, this is my dream... Although it cannot be realized now, but... it is enough."
"Finally, may you be clothed in glory."
The moment the words fell, the entire challenge space slowly and quietly faded away like snow melting in spring.
Gleipnir's consciousness also returned to his sleeping body in the outside world.
She slowly opened her eyes. Directly in front of her was still the middle of the lake in the Sona neighborhood, but there was no more cursing.
The breeze blows from the lake, as if someone is sighing softly.
