Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 3991 New Type of Rumor
"My sister is not... a bad person."

On April 1st, I wanted to say that my sister was not a spy, but in the end, I changed my words.

Lizzie: "I won't judge what kind of person your sister is. But before your sister disappeared, didn't you have a deep understanding of your sister for several years?"

"So, just be my assistant and come with me to investigate your sister."

"When the dust settles, whether he is a spy, good or bad, there will be arguments."

April 1st took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay."

He was also very curious about what happened to his sister after she left the orphanage.

What kind of people has she met and what has happened to her over the years?

If his sister was sent to Tina Entertainment under someone's instructions, he must investigate it thoroughly, because it is very likely that this person was the culprit who pushed his sister into the abyss.

……

Lizzie and April left on the first.

On the surface, Lizzie still had some doubts about the sandbox, but as soon as the topic was over, Lizzie couldn't wait to leave and see whether the sandbox was "real" or not.

This sense of urgency is even greater than it was on April 1st.

It can also be seen from this that she may have no doubts in her heart for a long time, and the so-called exploration of truth and falsehood is just a desire to quickly get in touch with this new world.

Angel had originally prepared a few topics, such as chatting with Lizzie about the worldview in reality...

But feeling Lizzie's urgency, he finally dropped the topic.

And on April 1st, as Lizzie's newly hired "assistant", he naturally left with her.

Angel noticed that after Lizzie left the Fashion Guild, she took April 1st directly to Tina Entertainment without any stop.

For Lizzie, the authenticity of the box garden can be seen from Tina Entertainment, and... she also wants to find the information left by her predecessor.

For example, other files of the "Tina Building Large Corpse Hiding Case".

Also, did Ms. Vera give her any secret orders?

So, Lizzie was really anxious and had to go back to her office to look for clues.

Angel was also very clear about Lizzie's thoughts. There was still a lot of time, and there would be plenty of opportunities to talk to Lizzie about the world view later.

Well now.

Ingres still had two things to do.

He first posted the information about the "exclusive task" and related rewards on April 1st in the chat column.

The biggest gain today was the exclusive mission on April 1st, especially the "Reality Anchor Point +" given for completing the mission, which meant that they could freely choose a person to enter the dungeon.

This will be of great benefit for subsequent intelligence understanding or conquering dark corners.

Moreover, as the owner of the power of the fairyland, Angel had a vague feeling that the more reality anchors there were, the more beneficial it would be for the Modern City copy.

As for where this benefit will manifest itself, he is not sure for the time being, but he believes in this mysterious premonition.

Therefore, this reality anchor point requires more planning.

Angel didn't intend to act on his own, so he posted the matter on the chat board to collect other people's opinions.

Perhaps Gleipnir and Laplace were both busy, so no messages appeared in the chat box. Angel was not in a hurry. He closed the chat box first and turned to look at the reward prompt in the text box.

Previously, after completing the "Return Home" mission, in addition to receiving a new hidden mission, the rewards for the side quests also arrived.

"You have completed the side quest "Return Home"."

"Congratulations on receiving a random rumor."

This is the only reward.

Moreover, the reward was just a random rumor, which made Angel a little disappointed. Before, when Lizzie was still here, Angel had actually seen the mission reward, but because the reward was too bad, he directly skipped it.

Now looking back at the reward, the main reason is... he thinks the reward is a bit weird.

The difficulty of the "Return Home" side quest is very high. If you think about it carefully, you will understand: Lizzie participated in the investigation throughout the process, but in the end she did not find any clues.

You have to know that Liz is a senior executive of Tina Entertainment. She has connections, strength, and intelligence.

But even though Lizzie took great pains to investigate, she couldn't find any results.

Who gave the final key clue?
——Ms. Vera.

Vera is the former president of the Fashion Guild and the uncrowned king of the Dark Round Table. In the end, the clue to this ordinary side quest was given by such a big shot.

This is enough to illustrate the strangeness and difficulty of this task.

If it weren't for Vera's information, Lizzie wouldn't be able to find out the truth even after ten days or half a month.

Let’s get back to the point. For such a difficult task, isn’t the reward a bit too stingy?

Angel thought this was very abnormal.

The reward mechanism of the Wonderland copy will not be so stingy.

So, this time, Angel looked at the reward again, wanting to see if there was any clue?
"From the text, it seems no different from other rumored rewards." Angel muttered in a low voice: "Or is it that the bulk of the mission rewards are actually given to the subsequent hidden missions, so the rewards for this side mission are lost?"

Angel pondered for a moment and clicked on the definition of "rumor" in the reward.

As the new page unfolded, Ingres's eyes were drawn to the words on it.

The vast majority of the text description is about the definition of "rumor", which Angel had seen before in other rumor rewards.

but!

After reading it carefully, Ingres found that the ending had one more line of words than other rumor definitions!

"This rumor only applies to special pages."

Angel: “??!!”

This is a rumor about a special page?!
That's it!

A flash of enlightenment appeared in Angel's eyes. He now understood why there was only this one reward.

In terms of the number of special pages in existence, there are far fewer special pages than fashion monsters! Even high-level magicians may not be able to own special pages.

Of course, rarity does not mean preciousness, if the rumor reward is something like "Postscript: Basic Increment".

That's a bit low value.

But no matter how low the value is, it is still a special book page and is still in short supply.

Therefore, Ingres was satisfied with this rumor on the page.

the most important is--

The "rumor" reward is not only available in dungeons. It has now been confirmed that the rumor also has a corresponding one in reality, and it can be triggered in reality as long as it is before the expiration date.

Therefore, this rumor about the book page can be used for two purposes. He obtained the book page in the dungeon, and the anchor points such as April 1st obtained the book page in reality.

"Not bad, not bad." Angel nodded silently in his heart: He was thinking before that after joining Dream Mirror on April 1st, after completing a series of tasks, the only rewards they could give were knowledge and intelligence, which was a bit too little.

Now that we have the book page rumors, we have made up for the "physical rewards".

But then again.

Since the rumors about the book pages can also correspond to reality, some of the special book pages he discovered before can actually be found by April 1st in reality.

For example, "Prologue: Spectrum" is hidden in the model of the green giant.

Thinking of "Prologue: Spectrum", Angel's thoughts continued to diverge, and he thought of some information that could help April 1st in reality.

At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed through Angel's mind.

"If the small garden completely reflects reality, will some of the tasks in the small garden also appear in reality?"

The reason why Angel had this idea was not because of the mission reward, but because of the hidden mission he had received before - "The Unknown Savior".

This mission is related to the "mutated weird virus".

Angel had foresight into the virus in advance, and thus prevented the outbreak of the mutant virus, becoming an unknown "savior".

But if he wasn't there, the outbreak of the virus would cause the deaths of a large number of people, and even several towns in the underground blocks might face "doomsday."

Does this mission also correspond to reality?
If this corresponds to reality, doesn't it mean that this virus may have broken out in the real Fourteenth Town soon... or even now?
This is not a good thing.

Most importantly, it has the potential to implicate April 1st.

Thinking of this, Angel subconsciously wanted to lock onto Lizzie from a God's perspective and transmit his voice over a long distance.

But when he saw Lizzie in the office of Tina Entertainment, looking through the documents left by her "predecessor", he thought about it and decided to change his approach.

……

Tina Entertainment.

Lizzie took April 1st to the Arts Department floor.

Along the way, Lizzie met many colleagues who greeted her enthusiastically. Both their attitudes and responses were the same as she remembered.

At this moment, Lizi deeply understood the value of the small garden that fully reflected reality.

Even she couldn't tell it was false.

When Lizzie pushed open the door of her office and walked in, she saw the layout inside and her eyes flashed with thoughts again.

The predecessor is indeed a complete simulation of her, and the layout here is exactly the same as in reality.

Precisely because all the layouts are the same, it is relatively easy to search for files that do not exist in reality.

Thinking of this, Lizzie asked April 1st to wait by the side while she started to search alone.

In just half a minute, Lizzie found a part of the report related to "The Large-Scale Corpse Hidden Case in Tina Building". She did not read it immediately, but just by looking at the thickness of the report, which was comparable to that of a dictionary, she knew how scary this case was.

Lizzie continued to search. What she was most concerned about now was the report related to Ms. Vera.

While Lizzie was searching, April 1st, who had been standing at the door, suddenly said, "Ms. Lizzie, I just received a message from Mr. Angel."

Lizzie continued to search without stopping: "What did he say?"

"The gentleman said that after you became Ms. Vera's assistant, you have been staying in the office of the Fashion Guild..."

Lizzie paused.

"???"

So if I search here, I'm looking in the wrong direction?
But think about it, after she becomes Vera's assistant, her office will definitely move to the Fashion Guild...

Lizzie cursed in her heart, turned around silently, and motioned April 1st to follow her to the Fashion Guild.

"By the way, the gentleman said one more thing."

Lizzie: "What's the matter?"

April 1: "Mr. said that he left a report on your desk in the office. It seems to be related to a virus. He asked you to go and see it as soon as possible. This virus has already appeared in the sandbox and is likely to break out in reality."

virus?

Although Lizzie didn't know what the virus was, she knew too well the power of a highly contagious virus.

Take the weird virus for example. If people on the surface had not been vaccinated at birth, it is estimated that at least half of the people in Modern City would have mutated.

If it is a deadly infectious virus, the harm will be even greater.

Thinking of this, Lizzie couldn't help but frown: "Did he say what the virus was?"

April 1: "It's called the 'Mutation Weird Virus'."

Lizzie: “??!”

She had just thought about the weird virus, but now it popped up? Was this long-distance mind reading?

No, April 1st is talking about the "mutated" weird virus!

Could it be that it has broken through the immune barrier?
Thinking of this, Lizzie couldn't help but swear, and her pace became faster: "Don't be so slow, hurry up and catch up!"

This time, Lizzie almost ran as she took April 1st to the Fashion Guild.

Fortunately, the Fashion Guild is very close to the Tina Building, and Lizzie quickly arrived at her office.

I saw the report on the desk at a glance.

It looks like paper but not paper, more like an illusion.

If nothing unexpected happened, this was the report Angel left behind. She didn't have time to worry about whether it was an illusion or not, so she just opened the report.

——"The Complete Record of the Mutated Virus Mission in the Fourteenth Town"

Mission record?

Lizzie was a little confused, but she continued reading silently.

It records a virus mutation that Angel experienced not long ago at the Beverly Nursing Center in the Fourteenth Town.

Ingres detonated a hidden danger in advance and controlled its outflow.

But this is only Angel's control in the box. In reality, there is no savior like Angel.

Lizzie's heart started to turn cold when she read half of it. Especially when she saw that the culprit of the mutant virus was Henrietta's father, Horace, the vice president of the Fashion Guild, her scalp was tingling.

This matter actually involves the top leaders of the Fashion Guild? !
After reading it, Lizzie stood there for a long time without saying a word.

This report was as light as air, but she inexplicably felt it was extremely heavy.

This matter is difficult to deal with.

Because it involves the top leaders of the Fashion Guild.

But she had to deal with it, because if she didn't, countless people might lose their lives.

She was silent for a moment, then looked at April 1st: "I'm going to log off. Please thank Mr. Angel for me. Tell him that I owe him a favor."

"You are free to do whatever you want after that. I will contact you when I come online."

……

On the other side, after confirming that Lizzie had started reading the report he left behind, Angel stopped paying attention.

He couldn't go to the modern city in reality, so this matter could only be left to Lizzie.

"By the way, how about trying this random rumor now?"
