Angel took a quick look and saw that Lizi's mission was progressing very quickly. The identity of the bones had been confirmed and she was currently contacting the family members of the bones.
As for Connors... there hasn't been much progress yet.
This is normal. Virus research is unlikely to be accomplished overnight.
Angel shook his head and looked away.
At this time, he had arrived at the "authentic" area of Wanming Street. Through this area, he could reach the main street of the Eighth Town.
As soon as he stepped into the tunnel, Angel's impetuous thoughts gradually returned to calm.
Although the surrounding area is filled with a damp and musty smell, walking in this authentic area where you can even hear the echo of footsteps makes you feel extremely peaceful.
It's as if this place has its own realm of tranquility and tranquility.
When passing by the middle of the tunnel, Angel glanced at a cozy flower shop with lights on the side of the road.
A mutant clerk with scary tentacles on his face was holding a watering can and watering the flowers in the potted plants under the light. Perhaps he noticed Angel's gaze, the mutant clerk raised his head and glanced at Angel
.
Smiling and nodding.
It's like a harmonious encounter between the store owner and passers-by.
However, when Angel and the clerk passed each other and moved away from each other, the clerk's smiling expression slowly faded away. He turned his head and looked quietly at the direction Angel was leaving, with a trace of subtlety in his eyes.
Check the mood.
After a while, he shook his head and stopped looking, continuing to water the flowers and regaining peace.
After walking out of the tunnel, Angel immediately heard the daily noise of the Eighth Town. He looked back at the dark tunnel. They were only a few meters apart, but they seemed to be two completely different worlds.
The reason for all this is...the mutant store clerk.
The mutant clerk was definitely a fashion magician, and he set up an area in the tunnel that was unique to him. It could even be said to be a "field" or "boundary", which gave rise to the obvious peaceful atmosphere.
When Angel came here for the first time, he actually didn't pay much attention to this "quiet boundary".
Because this is not an offensive magic, it can make people feel at peace, and it can be regarded as a gentle auxiliary magic. For pedestrians passing through the tunnel, it has almost only benefits and no disadvantages.
But just now, Angel passed through the tunnel again and found something different.
"Call of the Dark Corner" (continuous purification, current progress is 0.000%)
Behind the dark corner mark on the text column, the words "continuous purification" appeared. All this appeared after he entered the tunnel.
In other words, the "quiet barrier" in the tunnel seems to have the ability to purify negative effects.
However, its purification effect is not particularly strong. During the few minutes Angel walked in the tunnel, no characters were displayed behind the continuous purification.
But since there is "continuous purification", it means there is still progress, but it may be very, very small.
If you want to completely purify "Call of the Dark Corner", you will probably have to stay in the tunnel for dozens of days?
It sounds like it takes a long time, but you must know that the ability to purify vignetting marks is very, very rare. After all, this may involve the "Vignetting Rules" and is a pollution at the level of world will.
And the mutant magician in the tunnel was able to purify this negative effect by relying on that inconspicuous quiet field...
Could this mutant magician be similar to Zuniga and be the hidden boss in this dungeon?
Angel looked back at the tunnel for a few seconds, but ultimately did not choose to seek confirmation.
He already has enough side tasks and random tasks. In order to avoid more causal entanglements, it is better to stabilize for a while...
However, despite what Angel said, he was still very concerned about this mutant magician.
He thought for a moment and contacted Connors.
True "purification", since even the "Call of the Dark Corner" can purify, will it also have a suppressive effect on the "mutated weird virus"?
So, he asked Connors to find someone to come over and give it a try.
Of course, this was just Angel's flash of inspiration. Because according to the current progress of Connors, it would be unknown how long it would take to complete the hidden mission "Resuscitation".
Even if he can take shortcuts, Angel still hopes to take shortcuts.
…
On the outskirts of the Eighth Town, Qingshui Canal.
This place is far away from the main street of Town 8, and there are no well-dressed people around. Occasionally, you can catch a glimpse of living people, and they are all homeless people struggling to survive in the sewers.
Moreover, the further you go deeper into the Qingshui Canal, there are even fewer homeless people.
Because this place has left the "reservoir" area and re-entered the cramped sewer area. Not only is the road narrow, there is garbage and excrement everywhere on the ground, and even the smell is much worse.
Angel walked along the sewer area for about five minutes before arriving at a slightly spacious cave.
The spaciousness of this cave is only compared to the sewer area. If compared with the ruins paradise and the cave where the Eighth Town is located, it is really dwarfed and cannot be compared at all.
There is only one villa in this cave, and this small villa, which is almost dilapidated, is the residence of the former noble knight.
To get to the villa, you have to pass through a winding canal.
This water channel is the so-called "clear water channel".
But it's not clear.
Of course, from a clean point of view, compared to the polluted channels in the sewers, this place is already very good. At least there is no floating garbage to be seen and no foul smell.
However, there is a thick layer of white foam floating on the surface of the clean water channel, just like soap foam, and the color of the water is reddish-pink, which looks more dangerous than polluted water channels.
For this reason, even though many homeless people know that there is an empty villa here, no one dares to come here.
Most of the reasons lie in this red pink water channel.
According to rumors, this canal has been contaminated by chemicals. If you stay here often, normal people will have physical mutations, while mutant people's bodies will continue to fester...
But these are actually rumors.
The fact that the former noble knight dares to live here for a long time means that it is definitely not unsafe.
When Angel and Sisley went to find Bonnet, the Knight of the Fallen Dream, they learned from Bonnet that the reason why this section of clear water channel is this color is because there is a kind of algae under the water.
The color of this kind of algae is reddish, so the color of the water channel also looks reddish-pink. As for the scum on the water surface, it is the bubbles spit out by the algae, and there is no harm in itself.
It's just a big visual impact.
Angel had seen it from a God's perspective before. The bottom of the canal was covered with dense red algae, and the red algae was long and strip-shaped. If you didn't look carefully, it looked like a group of earthworms swaying under the water.
As for why the Dark Round Table allowed the spread of "rumors", it actually hoped to deter the homeless people from invading the former noble knight's villa. For this reason, the Dark Round Table also gave away the only bridge on the Qingshui Canal.
It was ruined. If homeless people want to go to the villa, they have to cross the five-meter-wide "pink ditch".
The actual effect so far is quite good.
At least from Angel's perspective, there were no traces of homeless people occupying the villa.
With a tap of his feet, Angel crossed the clear water canal and landed on the other side of the canal.
This is a mountain col with a "concave" character. A clear water canal surrounds the mountain col, and the center of the mountain col is the former residence of the former noble knight.
There are many tall trees planted on the mountain col. Looking here from the other end of the Qingshui Canal, there are almost no traces of buildings, only dense and lush vegetation.
Only when you go deep into the trees can you see the hidden and uninhabited small villa in the central depression.
This is a single-family two-story villa with a towering spire. There is a rusty cross on the top of the spire, which is crumbling under the erosion of time.
This cross is the family emblem of the former noble knight, and this kind of decoration can be found almost throughout the villa.
The walls are made of gray stone bricks. Because they have been uninhabited for a long time, they have been covered with dark green vines, as if nature wants to swallow the house again. The windows are large, but most of the glass has been broken. Fortunately, it was dark at first.
When the round table left, the inner windows were papered so that the interior would not be contaminated with dust.
There was a small garden in the yard, but it was all withered at this time, and all you could see were tattered grass roots.
The pure white tea table next to the garden is also covered with mud, and it doesn't look as bright as it once was.
This is a villa abandoned by time.
With an observational eye, Angel kept memorizing the scenes around the villa, not sparing every plant or tree. Moreover, he compared the remembered scenes with the scenes he had observed from a God's perspective.
Try to find differences.
Because in Angel's opinion, where "difference" exists, there must be something fishy.
But Angel looked around the outside of the villa, memorizing every detail in his mind, and still didn't find any difference.
Angel was not discouraged, the real challenge was in the room.
After passing through the dilapidated courtyard, Angel came to the door of the house. The heavy door was made of steel and had some strange symbols carved on it. These symbols at first glance seemed to belong to some ancient religion or mysticism.
logo.
But in fact, this is actually corner code.
This string of corner codes does not have any special meaning, but is a series of numbers. If you want to enter the room, you need to click on the corner codes correctly to open the iron door.
To put it bluntly, this is a modern city version of the combination lock.
Angel didn't know the original password of this door, nor did the Dark Round Table. However, after the former noble knight disappeared, the Dark Round Table found the merchant of this door and reset the door lock password.
.
Now you only need to tap the first symbol and the last symbol continuously to open the door.
Of course, Angel can also choose to score directly.
However, it's not necessary.
Opening the iron door smoothly, Angel walked into the interior of the small villa. Previously, when Angel observed from God's perspective, he had clearly remembered every detail of the interior, so when he entered the villa,
Not only is there no sense of strangeness, but there is a familiar feeling of "going home".
He remembered every detail here, including the degree of curling of the blanket on the floor, the location of the crack in the porcelain bowl on the table, and the fragments of window glass scattered on the floor.
Now, it's just a "comparison" again to confirm if there is anything missing or any difference from God's perspective.
This investigation lasted twenty minutes.
From beginning to end, Angel used his physical eyes and spiritual perspective to investigate, so that he could compare it with God's vision.
But for now, there is no difference in the hall, kitchen, cloakroom on the first floor, bedrooms on the second floor, study room, or even the basement.
This made Angel feel slightly depressed.
His intuition told him that there must be a secret here, and that this secret was most likely related to the disappearance of the former noble knight, but he couldn't find it.
Angel sat on the still soft sofa and fell into thought for a while.
He was recalling the inspections along the way, reviewing every detail, trying to find the missing parts...
Just as images kept flashing through Angel's mind, a sudden burst of complaints woke him up from his memories.
"It's so dark... I hate being pinched."
Angel was stunned for two seconds before he reacted. With a wave of his hand, a light blue magic hand appeared in front of his eyes.
The magic hand was originally tightly held, but with Angel's call, it slowly opened.
He stretched his palm to reveal the card inside.
This card is the contact card with Zuniga. At this time, the printed girl on the card is puckering her mouth and complaining in a low voice, "I got pinched again, I got pinched again."
When she felt that there was light coming out of the outside world, she blinked her beautiful eyes and said aggrievedly: "Can't you put me in a normal place? I can't see anything even if I hold it."
Angel's face was expressionless: I just didn't want you to see it, so I threw it to the hands of magic.
Seeing Angel's silence, Print Lady sighed and said, "Dear Mr. Angel, the master has something to contact you..."
Then the card surface changed, and the printed girl disappeared and turned into Zuniga's appearance.
Judging from the background, he seems to be sitting on a train at this time. The logo on the seat is silver wings. At a glance, he can tell that it is the Silver Wings Express.
The Silver Wing Express is only responsible for the passage between the central area and other areas. In other words, Zuniga should have left the central area by now.
"I'm on my way to the West Eighth District now." Zuniga's voice came.
"West Eighth District? Are you planning to come to the Eighth Town?" Angel was stunned.
Zuniga nodded: "Well, I found someone to help me carve graffiti in various districts, so I don't have to go to every place. So, I have some free time for the time being, and I plan to go to the residence of the former noble knight you just mentioned.
, do you want to go together?”
Angel: "..."
Angel stood up, let his magic hand hold the card, and looked around.
In Zuniga's confused expression, Angel said: "I am now at the residence of the former noble knight."
Zuniga: "Have you already gone? Have you found anything?"
Angel nodded and briefly stated the results of his inspection: "Nothing has been found so far. I guess that maybe the clues left by the former noble knight are not the secret clues I imagined..."
