Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 4013 New Hairstyle

When Angel arrived near the old house of the first generation pioneer, he was surprised to find that there was a high silver-white steel wall nearby.

The wall is about five meters high and surrounds the old house.

Only one gate remained.

But the gate was also closed, and two burly men in fully armed armor were standing at the door, seemingly guarding the gate.

There are several mechanical patrol dogs roaming around the high walls, with a faint red light in their eyes, keenly detecting any movement around them.

Such solemn alert with live ammunition also caused a lot of discussion among nearby residents.

After listening for a while, Ingres got a general understanding of the basic situation.

The high steel wall was suddenly erected yesterday.

It is said that two people came yesterday at noon, a mutant girl with eyes on her forehead, and an elegant old man in a suit.

Not long after the high wall was erected, the guards came with mechanical dogs.

At first, people around speculated whether there was some incredible discovery inside the wall, such as treasure or something... However, later, a resident representative approached the guard to inquire.

The answer was: renovate the former residence of the first generation of pioneers, and turn it into a scenic spot with cultural value as its selling point.

When the surrounding residents heard this, their original interest disappeared.

What cultural value, what former residence attractions... these are not the point; the point is to sell tickets and make money.

I guess some consortium suddenly thought that "humanities" could also be a selling point, so they came here to grab land and make money.

Residents can only scoff at this.

They also know that once the tourist attraction makes money, the surrounding neighborhoods will also improve. However, the people living here are all elderly people.

Compared with the unknown of "common prosperity", they are more afraid of outsiders disturbing their peace.

But there was nothing they could do. Since others had the approval for land development and even the homeless housing, they had no choice but to accept it.

Fortunately, the old house is some distance away from the neighborhood, so out of sight, out of mind.

The above is the information that Angel has obtained.

After listening to it, it can be basically confirmed that this high wall must have been built by someone hired by A Duo.

Thinking of this, Angel took out the contact card left by Aduo and activated it.

Not long after, under the holographic projection, A Duo, wearing a punk jacket, appeared above the card.

"Mr. Angell?"

Angel nodded: "I want to ask you something..."

As the conversation progressed, Angel confirmed that it was indeed she who built the high wall and that the guards and mechanical dogs were also sent by her.

Before doing these things, A Duo originally wanted to tell Ingres, but she couldn't contact him anyway, so she had to give up.

The reason for building the wall is simple...

Earlier, under the guidance of Ingres' coordinates, A Duo stepped into the oil painting space. As soon as she entered, she keenly sensed the etheric energy remaining on the statue. Even though the etheric energy was sealed by the glass beads, she was not sure that the seal would last forever.

In order to prevent the seal from disappearing and the etheric energy from escaping to the outside world, A Duo ordered people to build such a high wall under the guise of "renovating the old house".

After A Duo finished explaining, he added: "I actually didn't think of building a high wall at first. I took the noble knight with me and wanted to take the black glass bead in the elf's hand back to the Wandering House headquarters for sealing."

"But when we got to the old house, we found that we couldn't get in. As soon as we approached the wall of the old house, the surroundings turned into a white mist..."

With nothing else to do, Aduo asked the noble knight to build a high wall of steel. ——The current noble knight is proficient in creation, so building a high wall is no problem for him.

Angel: "..."

Hearing this, Angel understood in his heart, but his expression remained calm. He knew that the reason why Aduo and the current noble knight could not enter was because he had set up an illusion nearby.

Moreover, he only gave Ah Duo the right to enter the oil painting space once. Ah Duo had already used that opportunity before, so naturally she could not enter it a second time.

Angel was also glad that he only gave Aduo the permission once.

If she really took the glass bead away, it might actually cause the ether to leak out.

Because the glass beads are transformed from the corpse of the monster, but the statue also has the breath of the monster. In other words, the statue and the glass beads coexist, and they form a seal together.

Removing the glass beads rashly will most likely disrupt the balance and render the seal ineffective.

As Aduo listened to Angel's explanation, the color on her face gradually faded, and she bowed deeply to apologize: "I'm sorry, I really didn't know it would cause such serious consequences."

Angel looked at her calmly. Although his tone was light, every word pierced her heart: "You may really not know, but don't you think carefully? You just always feel that anything that is not under the jurisdiction of the Dark Round Table is potentially destabilizing."

A Duo did not refute, but just lowered her head.

"I did something wrong this time. What should I do now?"

Ingres: "The most important thing for you now is not to focus on the glass beads in the painting space, but to find the special space. This is the key point."

"As for the oil painting space, you don't have to worry about it. With me here, there will be no ether leakage."

Even if ether leakage really occurred, Ingres had set up a nightmare barrier outside the painting, so the ether energy could not escape.

The real world is another matter, but in the dungeon, the power of nightmare is an absolute rule that cannot be broken by ether energy.

Finally, after discussion, Aduo completely entrusted the oil painting space to Ingres.

Moreover, in the internal management of the Dark Round Table, this area of ​​the old house was directly assigned to Angel.

In a sense, the ownership of this mansion already belongs to Ingres.

Afterwards, under A Duo's order, the guards and mechanical dogs outside the old house left one after another, leaving only this silver-white steel wall.

Ingres did not tear down the wall, and leaving it there served a certain purpose.

He opened the gate of the high wall and waited silently for Laplace to arrive.

The time soon came to noon.

Laplace arrived at the old house on time.

Angel looked at Laplace's new look, his lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he kept silent.

Before, her long silver-white hair was draped naturally behind her; but now, her hairstyle has completely changed, into a bun with two ponytails. At first glance, she looks a bit like Sailor Moon...

The hairbands used to tie the bun are one emerald and one dark blue, which just correspond to Laplace's heterochromia.

It looks good, but it feels a bit too out of place.

Especially when thinking of Laplace's real age and his usual indifferent personality, coupled with such a striking hairstyle, Ingres found it a little bit weird.

Laplace seemed to see what he was thinking and said calmly, "This hairstyle was designed by Edward. Although I also think it's weird, I have to say that after changing my hairstyle, I can collect style points more than five times faster than before."

As he spoke, Laplace summoned the "Fashion Magic Book". As the pages turned, a figure made of mist gradually became clear.

In just a moment, Laplace's appearance appeared.

However, this "Laplace" was surrounded by a light mist, and it was obvious that he was different from ordinary people.

Laplace: "This is the Mist Spirit."

"Mist Spirit. Laplace" nodded slightly to Angel, then stood behind Laplace.

"With my current style point limit, I can create three mist spirits at the same time."

Don’t underestimate the small number of three fog spirits.

You know, Laplace just started gaining style points through hairstyle yesterday, and the restoration of style points and the increase in the upper limit of style points are two different things.

The former is easier, the latter is harder.

In just one day, Laplace's increased style points were enough to maintain three mist spirits, which was enough to show how exaggerated the style points she gained in that day were.

No wonder Laplace doesn't care that his hairstyle doesn't match his personality.

"What can she do now?" Angel looked at Laplace's mist spirit clone curiously.

Laplace: "What the Wuling clone can do depends on how much computing power I allocate to her. At present, she should not be much different from me in handling routine problems."

“So how much computing power did you allocate?”

Laplace thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe 0.01%? Or maybe even less, I didn't calculate it too much. Anyway, making her doesn't burden me at all."

Angel: "..."

A fog spirit who can follow Laplace's way of doing things and handle routine problems is definitely comparable to a top smart person.

But the computing power allocated to create such a fog spirit is less than 1%. Angel now understands why Gleipnir was attracted to the Smokescreen Scholar, but still thinks Laplace is more suitable for this monster.

The computing power of the main body was perfectly inherited by Laplace, and now it is used on Wu Ling, which is a perfect fit.

In the future, when Laplace has more and more style points, it is estimated that there will be hundreds or even thousands of fog spirits existing at the same time, and there will be no problem at all.

However, Wu Ling also has shortcomings.

"Although there is no obvious distance limit between the mist spirit and the main body, once there is a spatial separation, the mist spirit will enter a dissolution state."

"If we don't return to the same space in time, the fog spirit will completely dissipate."

Take a simple example.

Suppose Laplace created a fog spirit. Even if they were separated by two continents, the fog spirit would continue to exist as long as there was no spatial isolation or it was not affected by spatial energy.

But if someone creates a spatial isolation, for example, if Angel puts the mist spirit into the space of his bracelet, then even if Angel stands in front of Laplace, the mist spirit will enter a dissolution state and will gradually dissipate within one to two hours.

This is considered a flaw of Wu Ling.

"I originally wanted to keep a mist spirit in Prada Media to take over Gleipnir's job." Laplace sighed, "But now, I have to give up for the time being."

Once she leaves the copy, the fog spirit left here will definitely dissipate.

Although the flaws are obvious, compared with Wu Ling's advantages, these tiny flaws are actually no big deal.

Most importantly, defects can be remedied!

According to Laplace, the main reason for the current defects is that she just got the puzzle and her understanding and development of the Smokescreen Scholar is not enough.

As we gain a deeper understanding in the future, these flaws will slowly disappear, and perhaps even more powerful fog spirits will be developed.

All in all, Laplace was very satisfied with the puzzle of Smokescreen Scholar.

Not only did it alleviate the problem of insufficient manpower in the "Dream Mirror", but when using the Mist Spirit, Laplace also generated a lot of inspiration related to the development of clones.

Just like Ingres’ ability as a “landscape expert”, he also had a deep understanding of the materialization of fantasies.

Learning by analogy and enriching one's self, this is the greatest gain of the fashion magic system for them!

……

Step into the oil painting space on time.

Then go offline directly in the oil painting space.

When Laplace came online again, he had already left the dungeon.

Angel sent Laplace to the Rabbit Town and prepared to say goodbye. But before saying goodbye, Laplace borrowed Turing again.

In her words, there are still too few Wuling clones at present, and her development is insufficient, so Wuling cannot use fashion magic. Turing's large-screen display, holographic projection and other abilities are more useful than her Wuling when guiding large crowds.

Laplace had said so much, so it was difficult for Angel to refuse.

In this way, Laplace took Turing to the Rabbit Building, and Angel thought about it and did not go to Silver Coral Island to find Dudubi immediately, but went to the Text Manor first.

Before that, he sent in a batch of miscellaneous items through the Dream Conch and placed them in the Wenhua Manor.

While leaving the dungeon, Angel was going to see if any of these things contained "strong emotions" and whether the Dream Conch could pull things with "strong emotions" into the Dream Crystal Origin.

A moment later, Ingres arrived at the small garden full of large Mary roses.

He had thrown all his odds and ends here before.

At this time, the pieces of paper, pine cones, crystals, scissors, ink and the like were quietly placed on the small table in the garden.

There were a few butterflies with text messages floating on them nearby, curiously landing on them.

Angel's mind turned, and the palm-sized retro radio floated in the air.

"Hertz, search for signals within ten meters."

Accompanied by a "beep" sound, Hertz slowly floated into the air, and the waves invisible to the naked eye spread out in all directions like ripples.

These ripples did not react at all when they passed over the flowers and plants in the garden, including the word butterflies. However, when they touched some small objects on the table, new ripples began to form.

The new ripples turned into strange signals and poured into Hertz's body.

Then, Hertz began to output these signals.

The text bar also starts to translate the corresponding text signal in real time:

"Searching... eliminating useless signals..."

"Searching..."

"Search completed. No communication signals, electromagnetic wave signals or sound wave signals within the specific frequency range were found..."

"A suspected space-time signal source has been found. Please click to view."
