Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 3996 Last Wish
As the connection time was only ten minutes, Angel did not dare to delay. After confirming through the God's perspective that there was no danger visible to the naked eye in the space, he prepared to enter.

The method of entering is also very simple. As long as you touch the oil painting with your hand while the space crack exists, you will be sucked into the space.

Following Turing's instructions, Ingres reached out and touched the painting.

The next second, he felt a pulling force pulling him forward.

This traction was not strong, and even an ordinary person could easily break free from its control. However, Angel did not resist, but let the traction control his body...

After a slight period of weightlessness.

Ingres disappeared in front of the painting.

When he opened his eyes again, he had arrived in a pure white space.

The moment Angell entered this space, he felt the power of the fairyland moving faintly, as if it was ready to generate fairyland information at any time. However, it seemed that some prerequisites had not been met, so the text column was still silent at this time.

He appeared in the square.

The square is very small, surrounded by circles of white buildings.

"This is probably the hidden town rumored in the underground block..." Angel muttered as he looked at the town's buildings.

Domes, pointed roofs, and flat roofs are obviously buildings of different shapes and styles, but they are appropriately integrated here.

This reminded Angor of the City of Beginning Heart, where he collected buildings of various styles, but in the end they were all blended together in a way that didn't match at all. The ugly city construction was so bad that even Jon couldn't help but sigh.

Perhaps, this is the difference in aesthetics.

Angel sighed silently in his heart that this small white town was most likely designed by a master architect.

However, these buildings are not important.

Angel had taken a quick scan from a bird's eye view before, and found that the place was almost empty and had no special meaning.

Although there were signs of people living inside some of the houses, only ordinary daily necessities were left inside.

The truly important place in this town is the two statues that Ingres saw earlier, located in the center of the square.

Angel turned around and looked at the statue more than ten meters away.

Although they are two statues, they are carved together.

Before, from a bird's eye view, these two statues gave Ingres a strange feeling. Now, right in front of him, that feeling was even more obvious.

There is a vague omen of danger.

Ingres hesitated for a moment, but decided to move forward.

As Angel moved forward, the fairyland power around him was like boiling water, the movement became louder and louder, until Angel arrived in front of the statue, the fairyland power that had been boiling for a while finally manifested a fairyland information, projected in front of Angel's eyes.

"Warning: You are approaching etheric energy. Long-term contact may cause mutation risk. It is recommended to stay away!"

Although this fairyland message only has one sentence, it has three items that can be further checked: ether energy, long-term contact, and mutation risk.

Ingres opened them one by one and checked them.

Well... there was nothing special about it. It was all information he already knew. In fact, it was even more concise than what he knew.

The only thing worth mentioning is that the term "long-term contact" clearly states how long the contact may lead to mutation.

Under normal circumstances, if one enters an area of ​​etheric disorder, a state of erosion will occur within minutes of entering, followed by mutation.

But in a white town.

The etheric energy here is very, very low, and is trapped inside the statue.

——The source of ether energy is the black glass ball held in the hand of the elf in the statue.

According to the information from Wonderland, a small amount of ether energy is blocked inside.

Because it is blocked by the glass ball, and the ether energy here is not much, if you want to achieve mutation here, you must be in close contact with the glass ball for at least dozens of hours.

It was naturally impossible for Angel to touch the glass ball for dozens of hours, so this warning from Wonderland Information was not a warning, but a reminder at most.

No wonder he clearly sensed that the power of the fairyland was floating around, but no text information took a long time. It was because although there was danger here, the degree of danger was too low, so low that only when he got close to the statue would a text message appear that looked like a warning but was actually a reminder.

However, one thing can be confirmed from this warning: the monster partners of the first generation of pioneers were actually killed by the erosion of ether.

In other words, the strange space with colorful black fog that the first generation of pioneers and their monster companions fell into in the "Story Resonance" is most likely related to the dark corners.

It should not be a dark corner world, but a special space separated from the dark corner, like the hidden waters.

Thinking of this, Ingres couldn't help but sigh.

The modern city seems calm and peaceful, but because it is closely connected with the dark corners, invisible crises are everywhere.

Both the first generation of pioneers and Cherry are victims.

There are probably many more victims like this, but most of them don’t even have the chance to speak.

After sighing, Ingres returned his gaze to the statue.

Two statues, each with two glass beads.

The black glass bead held in the elf's hand contained etheric energy. The glass bead itself seemed to be made of glass, but it was actually the body of the elf.

That is the corpse of the monster companion of the first generation pioneer.

Etheric energy will corrode everything, and almost no material can contain etheric energy, unless living organisms use their own bodies to seal the etheric energy.

Just like cherries, they contain etheric energy in their bodies, but they cannot infect other people because the etheric energy is sealed in their bodies.

Similarly, the elf used its own body to seal all the etheric energy.

Otherwise, the etheric energy would dissipate.

This is the truth about black glass beads.

The other glass bead is a pure white glass bead located between the eyebrows of the human-shaped statue and looks like a decoration.

But Ingres had previously perceived from a God's perspective that there was a dark shadow inside the glass bead, and the shape of this shadow was extremely similar to a "book page".

If nothing unexpected happens, the glass bead will contain Ingres's target this time: a special page of the book!
Thinking of this, Ingres made a move with his hand, trying to get the white glass bead in his hand.

But the glass bead seemed to be inlaid very tightly and did not move for a while.

Ingres hesitated for a moment, and then formed a light blue magic hand in mid-air, ready to pick the glass bead from the center of the statue's eyebrows.

He was able to move it, but when the magic hand increased its strength, Angel felt that some special energy was gathered on the statue.

These energies are not obvious, and the reason why they were discovered by Angel is because they have some connection with the power of the fairyland.

Seeing this scene, Ingres seemed to have thought of something.

He tapped his feet lightly, leaped to the vicinity of the statue's head, and reached out his hand to touch the white glass beads.

The next second, the surrounding power turned into a winding stream of information, rushing towards the text column one after another.

「Hidden Mission "Last Wish"」

"Mission Overview: Before the Fireworks Spirit died, he was still worried about the people in the underground city. Will that strange space filled with black fog swallow more lives?"

"Mission objective: The firework spirit fell into a strange space and was corroded by etheric energy, eventually dying from it. For the safety of the people in the underground district, find the strange space and banish the remaining etheric energy inside."

"Note: This task can be shared with all members of the team."

The moment Ingres took on this hidden mission, the white glass bead between the eyebrows of the human-shaped statue suddenly loosened.

The glass bead that the magic hand had been trying to pull down for a long time before now fell naturally and rolled into Angel's hand.

really.

The remaining energy in this statue is probably the last thought of the fashion monster, the Fireworks Elf, which constitutes the last wish.

Only when you accept its mission and its last wish can you receive its final gift.

However, in Angel's opinion, this fashion monster who cares about the people in the underground district is still too kind. If it were him, you would at least fulfill your "last wish" before letting go of the glass bead.

After all, there is a difference between accepting a task and completing a task.

Closer to home.

Angel was not surprised to see this hidden mission.

Before, he was still lamenting that behind the prosperity was the dark side of disaster. Now, this dark side has been exposed.

Now, it's time to find a way to solve it.

The difficulty of this task is definitely not easy for ordinary challengers.

However, for those who have completed the task of "Step into the dream and see the truth", this task is much simpler.

Because they got the "Ether Converter".

As long as you use the ether converter, you can easily absorb the ether energy in that strange space.

So, it is not difficult to complete the task.

The difficulty lies in where exactly is that strange space?

There are no clues given in the mission information.

Moreover, this strange space is most likely an isolated space floating in the void, which Angel cannot perceive even with a God's perspective.

Angel shook his head and sighed. Faced with this kind of task, even with cheats, he still had no idea how to do it.

Forget it, this task can be shared with teammates anyway.

It’s better for those who are capable to do more work.

Thinking of this, Angel silently shared this task in the team chat.

After a while.

"Astrology Granny:???"

"Astrology Granny: I just clicked on the shared information to see what the task was. How come this task jumped directly to my taskbar?"

“Laplace: I got it too.”

"Starworm: Me too."

"Angel: Those who are capable should do more work...Huh? Starworm, are you bubbling?"

"Starworm: Bubbling? What a vivid description... I just came out of the challenge space, and then I saw messages popping up like crazy in the text bar. Sometimes it was an update, and sometimes it jumped to the team chat."

"Starworm: I just spent a long time trying to understand what the team chat meant. Is it Laplace who is talking above? I didn't expect Ms. Laplace to come in too?"

"Laplace: Yes."

"Starworm: What are you going to do about this mission? Are you going to do it?"

"Laplace: The task is not difficult, the difficulty lies in how to determine the location of the strange space."

Laplace had been to the hidden waters with Angel and completed the prerequisite mission of the dark corner. She had the "Ether Converter", so when she saw that the mission required absorbing ether energy, she immediately realized that the difficulty was not in the ether energy, but in finding the location.

"Astrology Granny: If you are interested in this mission, you can go and look for it. I will send some people to you."

"Starworm: I'm a little interested, especially after watching the chat in the team in front of you. I'm very curious about the etheric energy in the dark corner."

"Angel: I'll leave it to you then."

“Laplace: When you find the strange space, remember to call me. I’ll go get some of the mission rewards.”

"Astrology Granny: +1"

"Starworm: ..."

Angel originally wanted to give this task to Gleipnir, but he didn't expect that the starworm would bubble up at this time, and seemed to be very curious about the ether energy in the dark corner.

That's great.

Angel didn't continue to watch the team chat, but took advantage of the time he still had to walk around the white town.

Finally, at 12:09, Angel left the white town and returned to the outside world.

Not long after he came out, the gap hidden in the oil painting, which was invisible to the naked eye, slowly disappeared.

It will appear again at 12 o'clock tomorrow.

Angel turned to look at Turing: "If I ask you to change the entry time to 1pm, can I go in again at 1pm?"

Angel tried to find a bug.

Turing: "After the modification, you can only go at 1 pm tomorrow."

Ingres: "Does this painting have to be placed here to attract that space? Can I take this painting away?"

Ingres thought, if he could take the oil paintings with him, wouldn’t that be an alternative form of portable space?

However, Turing still gave a negative answer.

The special space where the white town is located has fixed coordinates. The only place that can attract them to deviate from the coordinates is here.

This painting will have no effect if hung anywhere else.

Angel sighed. It seemed that there was no way to exploit the bug.

He snapped his fingers and created an illusion next to the painting to prevent outsiders from taking the painting away.

After doing all this, Ingres looked at the white glass beads in his hand.

When he got the glass bead, the information had already popped up in the text column, but Ingres didn't have time to read it.

"Congratulations on winning "Footnote: Forward-looking Solidification""

Sure enough, the white glass beads contained special book pages.

"What came out was actually a footnote?" Ingres was a little happy, because he didn't have a footnote, so he could use it himself as long as it was suitable.

He still remembered that special pages like "Footnotes" were the application or transformation of a single fashion magic.

Foresight solidification, the name sounds like solidifying foresight ability? But solidifying foresight ability doesn’t seem to make any sense, right?

With doubt, Angel clicked on the information in the footnote and read it.
