Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 3980 Guide Record
At this time, Sigimund picked up the Vulcan Light Wheel and aimed it at the thin book.

His action was undoubtedly sending a message to Laplace's entity.

Because he knew very well that as long as the "signal" was unobstructed, Laplace's real body would be able to see the situation on his side through the mirror reflected by the Vulcan Light Wheel in the Sea of ​​​​Empty Mirror.

However, due to the viewing angle of the Vulcan Halo, it is generally impossible to record the text in the thin book.

Now, Sigimund took the initiative to pick up the Vulcan Light Wheel and pointed it at the thin book, naturally in order to let Laplace and others see the words in the thin book clearly.

And this thin booklet is the "Guide to Dark Corners"!
According to the rules of the Dark Corner Guide, all of Sigismund's actions in the Dark Corner will be recorded in this guide.

When Sigimund returns from the Dark Corner, the power of the fairyland will give Sigimund corresponding rewards through the action records in the "Dark Corner Guide".

In a sense, it can be understood that the Dark Corner Guide is a recording system separated from the power of Wonderland.

Pointing the Vulcan Light Wheel at the Dark Corner Guide can also allow Laplace to objectively understand what he did in the dark corner.

……

Seeing this scene, Laplace and Ingres both understood what Sigimund meant.

I also understood why Sigimund asked Zaina and the others to stay away for a while.

It is because the records in the "Dark Corner Guide" are obviously not allowed to be seen by them.

As Sigimund opened the Dark Corner Guide, his actions in the dark corner were also faithfully presented on the live broadcast screen.

[Day 1 09:00]

"Space jump anomaly - coordinate anchoring failed"

"Current environment: unknown metal corridor (oxygen concentration test passed/ether energy is above the safe value)"

"It is recommended to explore to anchor the coordinates."

……

[Day 1 09:10]

"Discovery of a group of fluorescent jellyfish"

"Ding! Biological atlas updated: Moonlight jellyfish (harmless)"

"Level feature matching completed - the current coordinates are confirmed to be the 265th floor "The Dreamy Moonlight Sea""

……

"A high-speed moving object is detected approaching!"

"Entity Identification: No humanoid entity included - aggressiveness confirmed"

"Warning! Right arm scratched! (Toxicity test: None)"

"Entity dead, should we record it into the biological map?"

"Already entered"

……

[Day 1 09:30]

"New area discovered: unknown bright corridor! (Oxygen concentration test passed/ether energy is above the safe value)"

"New area discovered: unknown dark corridor! (Oxygen concentration test passed/ether energy is above the safe value)"

"Unknown gaze detected, please leave the area immediately!"

……

"Unknown entity detected."

"Entity Recognition: Partygoers."

"It is recommended to decline the invitation"

……

Rows of text information, in a cold and objective data recording method, recorded all of Sigismund's actions after he entered the dark corner.

From the recorded information, we can know that after Sigismund entered the dark corner, he was attacked by an unknown entity.

That was why, when they observed Sigismund on the first day, he had obvious scars on his body.

Later, records of Sigismund's encounters with the party guests also appear in the guidebook.

Even the Dark Corner Guide recorded the gaze of the giant "whale", but at that time Sigismund did not seem to have the habit of checking the guide all the time.

As a result, he missed the first chance to escape.

Later, Sigismund was tricked by the partygoers, and was forced to fall into the sea from a dark corridor, and was swallowed by a "whale".

All of this is clearly recorded in the guide.

It was also after Sigismund was swallowed by the "whale" that the guide first contained information about the fluctuation of "ether energy".

"New area discovered: biological chamber of unknown entity."

"Warning: Oxygen levels in this area are extremely low!"

"Warning: The etheric energy in this area continues to rise. It is recommended to preheat the etheric converter!"

This "whale" seems to contain a huge amount of etheric energy, and the guide has even begun to recommend that Sigismund use an etheric converter.

Otherwise, you may be eroded by etheric energy.

but……

Sigismund did not seem to be looking at the guide at this time, nor was he aware that the etheric energy was continuing to rise.

Until, Sigismund encountered another person in the entity's biological chamber.

"Survivors found: Unknown human/female (slight etheric erosion)"

"Conversation record 1: "There is someone as unlucky as me, being swallowed by Umbrese...""

"Conversation record 2: "Hey, I'm a human, a human! Forget it, we will soon become monsters anyway, it doesn't matter whether we are human or not, just treat me as a monster."

"..."

When Angel saw that the Dark Corner Guide even had the conversation records, he was relieved. With the conversation records, he could roughly understand Sigimund's situation in the whale's belly.

I just don’t know if this woman is Zaina?

Ingres continued to look down.

"Conversation record 18: "I haven't even become a real woman yet, and I'm going to die here.""

"Conversation record 19: "Hello, my name is Zaina. Do you want to enjoy a loving union at the end of our lives?"

"..."

“Conversation record 32: “We can’t escape. Ambreser is a mutant monster corroded by ether. The ether energy in his body is extremely high. We can only hold out here for half an hour at most before we are corroded…”

"Conversation record 33: "Ah?! What the hell is this thing? It can actually absorb ether! Great, we are saved!"

[Day 1 10:30]

"Record update: Survivor Zaina found"

"Ding! Biological atlas updated: Ambrethe"

Seeing this, Angel was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that Sigimund actually met Zaina in the belly of the whale.

What was even more unexpected was that Zaina's personality was so wild that she invited Sigimund to bed as soon as they met.

That's not right. From Zaina's dialogue, we can see that her character is not wild, but she feels that she has no hope of escape and wants to experience the pleasure of adulthood before she dies.

Continuing to watch, Angel wanted to know how Sigismund and Zaina escaped from the whale's belly.

No, it shouldn't be called a "whale", but a dangerous entity - Ambrethe.

After a while.

Through the conversation records in the guide, Angel roughly guessed how they escaped.

This dangerous entity does not have much "flesh and blood" in its body, and its body is made up of a large amount of etheric energy.

Therefore, Sigismund absorbed ether energy with the help of the "ether converter", and half an hour later, he had created a channel to the outside world.

Then the sea water rushed back and washed Zaina and Sigimund out.

The entity named Ambrethe, after losing a large amount of etheric energy, seemed to be afraid of Sigimund and did not chase them at all, but moved away from that sea area.

And then——

"New area detected: Unknown sea."

"Warning: Oxygen levels in this area are extremely low!"

"Conversation record 98: "Escaped! Since you saved me, now it's my turn to save you. I have enough oxygen factor in my body to return to Tsukishima!"

"..."

"Conversation Record 101: "You don't have hallucination resistance? It seems that you rarely use the oxygen factor..."

"Conversation record 102: "Leave it to me. Close your eyes the whole time and I'll take you away. Don't worry, I'm not a delicate girl. I have plenty of strength and means!"

"..."

"Conversation record 148: "There is an underwater corridor there. Let's go in and rest for a night to see if we can find supplies."

[Day 2 05:48]

"Conversation Log 376: "It's time to go. There will be partygoers in the underwater corridor. Let's try to get out of here first."

"..."

Angel just glanced at the following records and didn't pay much attention to them, because what followed would be presented on the live broadcast screen.

Before, Angel thought that Sigismund was dragged by Zaina to swim in the sea all day, but unexpectedly, they went to the underwater corridor to rest for a night.

According to Zaina, underwater corridors are a special type of structure at this level and are widely found in the ocean.

From the outside, it is a square building more than ten meters long.

But once you enter, you will find that the corridors inside are almost endless...

Zaina also said that sometimes the misalignment in the corridor would cause a level jump, but it was unknown which level it would jump to... It was very likely to jump to the disaster level, and one would die if one entered.

Therefore, Zaina suggested to Sigismund that after entering the underwater corridor, it would be best for him to stay there and use it as a place to rest.

What she called corridor dislocation means that after walking through one corridor, you will jump to another corridor. This is called "dislocation".

In other words, Sigismund had experienced corridor dislocation at least twice before.

All I can say is that Sigismund was lucky enough not to encounter any transition.

Back to the present timeline.

After quickly flipping through the Dark Corner Guide, Sigimund returned the Vulcan Light Wheel to its original position.

He didn't know whether his actions just now could convey the information back, but he still had to do what he had to do.

Next, it is time to understand the level and then plan to seize the master of the level.

Thinking of this, Sigismund raised his head and looked at the sky.

At this moment, the Phantom Moon Eye might be obscured by the clouds and its true appearance was not revealed, but his fighting spirit was very obvious.

That look gave a feeling of trying to compete with the gods.

Seeing this scene, Angel silently turned his head and glanced at Laplace.

Laplace was silent for a moment, then said softly, "Sigimond is not a fool, he should be able to recognize the situation..."

Angel: “…I hope so.”

At least for now, Sigismund has no chance of challenging the Phantom Moon Eye.

In the live broadcast, Sigimund reunited with Zaina, and they seemed to be talking. However, the Vulcan Light did not illuminate their front faces, so it was unknown what they were talking about.

All we could see was that they were chatting as they walked towards a barren mountain on the coast.

Zaina said that this island is called "Moon Island", which is probably related to the Phantom Moon Eye in the sky.

There is almost no green on the entire island, it is completely barren, but the mountains are very continuous.

They walked to the foot of the cliff of the mountain, and saw Zaina walked forward and knocked on the cliff.

A questioning voice seemed to come from within the cliff.

After Zaina talked to the other party for a few words, a door actually opened in the center of the cliff. Looking inside through the door, obvious modern facilities could be seen.

Steel corridors, steam pipes, and a group of fully armed guards wearing masks and church clothing.

They were staring at Zaina with eager eyes.

To be precise, he was looking through Zaina at Sigimund behind her.

Although their eyes could not be seen, the situation at the scene clearly showed that they were wary of Sigismund.

One of them walked up to Sigimund holding an unknown hand cannon and seemed to be saying something to him.

Zaina stepped forward, stood in front of Sigismund, and communicated with the guards.

However, the other party seemed not to want to listen to Zaina's opinion and directly signaled Sigimund to follow them.

After a moment of silence, Sigimund did not choose to refuse. He comforted Zaina and followed the guards into the gate on the cliff...

Then, it was gone.

The picture freezes at the moment when Sigismund enters the mountain.

"I don't know what happened, but the images on the Sea of ​​Mirrors stopped again." Laplace shrugged, indicating that she didn't know the reason either.

It was the same before, it seemed that the signal in the dark corner was very unstable and intermittent.

This feeling is particularly helpless.

The plot was clearly in progress, but it was suddenly interrupted.

You can only wait for the next reconnection.

Although we don’t know what will happen next, from the last scene, it seems that the guards showed an unfriendly attitude towards Sigismund.

This is a bit strange.

It was clearly their first meeting, so why was he so malicious towards Sigismund?

You know, Zaina and her friends who know her are more curious about Sigimund.

Or did the guards know Sigismund's information in advance?

But how did they get the information about Sigismund?
For the time being, we can only keep these doubts in our hearts and wait for the next restart of the screen to get the answers.

However, it must be said that Sigismund's experience after entering the dark corner was really bumpy.

Every time before the disconnection, it seems to encounter some misfortune...

I just hope that this time, Sigismund can make it through.

……

After summarizing today's Dark Corner intelligence, Angel and Laplace agreed to meet in Modern City.

Firstly, Laplace has obtained the "Fashion Magic Book", which can carry the pages of the Smokescreen Scholar. Angel is going to give the pages to him and also give the "Postscript: Basic Increment" to Laplace.

Secondly, according to the time, April 1st might have already been online, so he planned to go and see what the current situation was on April 1st.

I don’t know if April 1st has come into contact with the gossip spirit in real life.

With curiosity, Angel logged into the modern city.

Angel's login point is in the private room of the private shop on the fifth floor of the Fashion Guild.

Before logging off, Angel set up a nightmare around the private room to prevent outsiders from entering, and also left contact information for April 1st.

However, when he went online, he found that the contact information had not been triggered, which meant that in reality, April 1st had not yet fallen asleep.

Angel thought about it and decided to wait here first.

Anyway, this is where he and Laplace were supposed to meet.
