Upon hearing Angel's question, Dolos subconsciously prepared to avoid answering on the grounds of "core instructions".
But just when he was about to speak, he suddenly thought that he had already separated from the original body of the "human machine".
It's like being reborn!
And no longer restricted by core instructions!
Dolos was stunned for several seconds before coming back to his senses: "Of course you can."
Next, Doros recounted the information he knew.
After a while, the fog in Angel's mind about the "Holy Eye Prayer Formation" gradually dissipated...
In fact, as long as we analyze the title "Holy Eye Prayer" word by word, we can understand it.
What is "Holy Eye"? It actually refers to Lord Yueyan. "Holy Eye" is the honorific title given to gods by believers.
What is "prayer gathering"? It is the gathering of prayers.
"Array" refers to a collection of rules.
Therefore, when combined, the "Holy Eye Prayer Gathering Array" means: gathering believers' prayers for the Moon Eyes in an array.
To put it bluntly, "believers' prayers" are actually the power of faith.
This is why, in the introduction to the Beacon of Faith, it is clearly mentioned that placing it in the "Holy Eye Prayer Array" can generate faith crystal blocks.
When Dolos told this, he had basically finished introducing the "Sacred Eye Prayer Array", but so far there was still no information about the "Dark Corner Entrance", which made Angel feel a little strange.
Simply ask directly.
Dolos did not explain immediately, but after a moment of silence, he asked: "The Dark Corner is a very special and closed world. Sir, are you sure you want to go to the Dark Corner?"
Angel nodded: "Of course."
Dolos: "Even if it's almost impossible to come back after you go, are you still willing to go to the dark corner?"
Dolos's eyes were very solemn, and even Luliana said at this time: "A dark corner is easy to enter and difficult to leave. Sir, you must be solemn when making a decision."
Angel didn't pay much attention at first, but Luliana tried to dissuade her, which made Angel couldn't help but wonder: "Why is it so difficult to return?"
Dolos: "Exits from dark corners are very rare. For wanderers living in dark corners, or members of major organizations, it is basically a legend. 99.9% of people who fall into dark corners can say goodbye and leave."
Angel: "Then how did you come out of the dark corner?"
Dolos and Luliana looked at each other, and then slowly said: "Luliana and I were sent out by the master of the hierarchy, Mr. Moon Eye."
"But the most important reason why we can leave from the dark corner is not the ability of the Lord of Levels, but because we have no physical body."
Angel: "Without a physical body?"
Dolos nodded: "Dark Corner is a very strange world. You can even imagine it as a man-eating monster. It likes to eat all living creatures, especially humans. To it, humans are like
It’s top quality food.”
"If food enters your stomach, it will naturally be impossible to let you out again."
"And what can come out is either waste or does not belong to the category of food..."
This is the case with Dolos and Luliana.
They were once human beings, but after being transformed by Lord Moon Eyes, they became "mechanical creations".
"Mechanical creations" belong to the category of non-food for Vignette, so when they encounter the exit, Vignette will not deliberately block it.
In the same way, why are there a large number of fashion monsters in the world, but almost all of them do not have "physical bodies", but exist in some form of energy? It is because the flesh bodies of fashion monsters are not allowed to pass through dark corners.
In other words, after Angel entered a dark corner, he wanted to leave again unless he abandoned his physical body.
But even if you abandon your physical body, it's not easy to leave because... there are very few exits from dark corners.
The exit from the dark corner is not fixed in a certain place, but is refreshed randomly, and the maintenance time is very short. Because the master of the layer has strong control over the first layer, he can discover the refreshed exit in time, but he is not the master of the layer.
It no longer has this ability.
This is also the reason why Moon Eye can find the exit and send Dolos and Luliena out in time.
"In short, if you can avoid dark corners, don't go into dark corners. Although there are treasures that many people desire there, it is also a cage that traps everyone..."
"Even if Luliana and I came out of the dark corner, we are still trapped in the mechanical body, and our souls are still locked in the cage of the dark corner."
Dolos's sentiments also resonated with Luliana.
A trace of sadness also flashed in Luliana's eyes.
The world is a cage, and the human body is also a cage.
There are cages everywhere, both the body and the mind are trapped.
The quiet atmosphere lasted for several minutes, and finally Angel broke the silence: "In the modern city, I met people whose bodies left dark corners."
Although Angel could hear the sincerity of Dolos's story, he didn't pay much attention to it.
Mainly, Angel has encountered people who physically left dark corners. For example, Zuniga and the people from the mountains left dark corners physically.
And Abigail, her body can be considered as leaving the dark corner.
Therefore, perhaps what Doros told is true, but after all, it is just his family's opinion. The world is big and the possibilities are endless.
The most important thing is that the dark corners in reality may be surrounded by many cages, making it difficult to escape. But the dark corners in Dream Crystal Plains are just a copy of Wonderland, no matter how difficult it is.
Dolos: "Although it is rare for the body to leave a dark corner, it is not completely unheard of. Some people are very lucky and just happen to find the exit, and there is no difficulty in the dark corner. It is also possible that they are lucky enough to leave the dark corner."
"But the probability is very small."
Dolos had heard of such cases when he was in the dark corner, but had never seen one.
When Doros answered, he was also paying attention to the changes in Angel's expression. Seeing that he didn't care at all, he stopped trying to persuade him and just made one last confirmation: "So, sir, you have really decided to go secretly."
horn?"
"Yes." Angel nodded.
Dolos also knew that it would be useless to dissuade him, so he slowly talked about another hidden meaning of the "Holy Eye Prayer Formation".
It's hard to get out of a dark corner.
But when entering dark corners, there are not so many restrictions.
When passing through a dark corner, some people just turn around, and some people just open the door, and they may fall into the dark corner from the real world.
The Holy Eye Prayer Formation is also a way to enter dark corners.
"The purpose of the Holy Eye Prayer Formation is to gather faith. So sir, do you know what to do after gathering faith?" Although Dolos was asking, he gave the answer himself before Angel could answer.
"After gathering faith, it is natural to pass on the power of faith to the gods, so that the gods can listen to the prayers and requests of believers."
Who is the god? Eye of the Moon.
Where is the eye of the moon? Dark corner.
So how to transmit the power of faith to Moon Eye? That would naturally open a channel of faith that reaches the dark corner.
Although this channel is for transmitting faith, it is connected to Dark Corner after all. Dark Corner's will will then look at the Holy Eye Prayer Formation. If there happens to be "food" here, it does not mind bringing "food" to it.
"Swallow them together.
This is another hidden meaning of the Holy Eye Prayer Formation.
It does not directly send people into dark corners, but it can attract the attention of dark corners through the belief channel and increase the possibility of entering dark corners.
"After activating the Holy Eye Prayer Formation, it is not 100% that you will be able to enter a dark corner. But the probability is higher than in other places. At least here, you have an 80% to 90% chance of being noticed by a dark corner and then getting stuck.
Into the dark corner."
After listening to Dolos's story, Angel also had a flash of surprise in his eyes.
He had previously speculated that the Holy Eye Prayer Formation might have the function of teleportation, and only in this way could it be transmitted into dark corners.
But I didn't expect that this was a magic circle that used mechanisms to create miracles.
The Holy Eye Prayer Formation is just an introduction, the real content is "the gaze of the dark corner". By attracting the gaze of the dark corner, one can be "swallowed" by the dark corner.
Luliana also added at this time: "After opening the Holy Eye Prayer Circle, other people may only have an 80% to 90% chance of being stuck in a dark corner. But sir, it should be 100% that they will get stuck in a dark corner.
.”
"Me?" Angel pointed to himself: "Why?"
Luliana tilted her head, with a crack between her eyebrows, as if there was a hidden eye staring at Angel.
After a moment, she said: "I feel like you have the aura of Dark Corner on you. As long as you are contaminated with Dark Corner's aura and you are watched by Dark Corner again, then the probability of being captured must be 100%."
After hearing what Luliana said, Angel immediately understood what she was referring to.
"The Call of the Dark Corner"
This is a special status that I encountered in Abigail's sealing instrument before. It means that it is marked by a dark corner. Once it enters the capture range of the dark corner, there will be a greater chance of being captured by the dark corner.
.
For others, it is definitely a debuff effect. But for Angel, this can guarantee that once he is targeted by a dark corner, he will be able to enter the dark corner 100%.
This is why Luliana thinks that Angel will inevitably enter a dark corner after the magic circle is opened.
Next, Angel learned more about the operating mechanism of the "Holy Eye Prayer and Gathering Array".
From Dolos, Angel learned an additional piece of information.
In fact, even if the "Faith Crystal Block" is not used, the Holy Eye Prayer Circle can still be activated. However, each activation requires the prayers of believers to be re-aggregated, which takes time.
To put it simply... the Holy Eye Prayer Array has a skill CD, which is the cooling time for casting spells.
According to Doros, if the believers in Modern City pray a lot and are lucky enough to be captured by the Holy Eye Prayer Formation, then the Holy Eye Prayer Formation can be opened once every six months to a year.
Now, the cooldown time of the Holy Eye Prayer Circle has been improved, so it can be activated directly without the "Faith Crystal Block".
Of course, Angel can also choose to use the Faith Crystal Block to activate it, so that the Holy Eye Prayer Circle will not enter the cooling time.
"It turns out that the role of the faith crystal is to charge the Holy Eye Prayer Array..." Angel thought to himself: "But having said that, the automatic charging time of the Holy Eye Prayer Array is too long.
Right? The effect of the Beacon of Faith is to gather the power of faith, so it shouldn’t take half a year to a year to produce the faith crystal, right?”
If Beacon of Faith really creates a Faith Crystal Block in half a year, it will not be easy to continue exploring the dark corners.
Angel decided to give it a try.
According to the instructions of the Beacon of Faith, it must be placed at the "faith receiving port" of the Holy Eye Prayer Array, so that it can continue to steal faith.
The faith receiving port of the magic circle is actually the location of the three previous pressure plates.
Two of the pressure plates have been damaged, and only one is still functioning.
Angel said goodbye to Luliana and Dolos for the time being, left the underwater church, and found the location of the only pressure plate.
This was a single seedling. In order to avoid being destroyed again, Angel directly left a part of the power of nightmare nearby to form a special protective shield.
After doing all this, Angel placed the faith beacon in the protective shield.
With the activation of the Beacon of Faith, its own "Faith Condensation" skill began to operate spontaneously.
Although Angel couldn't see the size effect of "faith condensation", he could vaguely feel that there seemed to be an invisible net that was spreading outward from the hidden waters.
This invisible net even passed through the hidden waters and entered the outer void...
Void?
Angel was stunned for two seconds before he realized that the hidden water area was now disconnected from the Banxing Lake in the East 19th District.
That's right, the connection period between the Hidden Waters and the Star Lake is twenty-four hours, and each connection takes about half an hour to an hour.
The connection period has long passed, so the Hidden Waters has been disconnected from the modern city and entered the void.
The next connection will be at six o'clock tomorrow morning.
However, even though the hidden waters are hanging alone in the void at this time, the invisible net woven by the condensation of faith is not hindered by the void at all.
It continues to spread, even into the companion lake, and continues to expand...
Angel stared at it for about two minutes, and suddenly a drop of golden liquid dropped from the glass ball.
At the moment when this drop of golden liquid took shape, Angel seemed to hear countless voices. These voices were male and female, old and young. They were all praying silently, wishing for the blessing of the dark corner, and wishing that the dark corner would be blessed. Ask the Holy Eyes to pay attention.
Obviously, these are believers of the Dark Corner Cult, and their prayers were gathered together to form this drop of golden liquid.
After another two minutes, a new drop of golden liquid appeared in the glass ball and merged with the previous drop.
Angel continued to observe for a while.
"It will take about two to two and a half minutes for a drop of golden liquid to form." Angel made a rough calculation and took out the faith crystal block for comparison.
I have basically come up with a figure in my mind: five days.
In about five days, a faith crystal block will form inside the faith beacon.
Although five days is still quite slow, compared to the recharging of the Holy Eye Prayer Formation, which often takes more than half a year, the speed at which Beacon of Faith generates crystal blocks is already very good.
But it’s right to think about it.
The Holy Eye Prayer Array can only gather the prayers of some believers from 6 am to 6:30 every day, and its capture range is limited to the hidden waters. If there is no power of faith to swim into the hidden waters from the outside world that day, the Holy Eye will The prayer circle will immediately drop to zero.
The Beacon of Faith is different. With the basic bonus of the Holy Eye Prayer Formation, it directly spreads itself into a giant net, extending to the modern city, and captures it 24 hours a day.
One is passive capture, and the other is active attack. Moreover, the capture range and capture efficiency are different, so Beacon of Faith naturally beats the Holy Eye Prayer Formation.
