Chapter 2624 The First "Live Broadcast"
Because he was afraid of damaging the decorations that had been repaired and remade with great difficulty, Angel simply gave up touching them directly with his hands, and instead used his mental power to explore the various traces here.
Before, he only used "Danger Sense" to explore, and did not find any traps here.
Now, after a careful inspection, it is indeed impossible to set up any traps here, as there are ingenious and fragile designs everywhere. Even the two armored knights practiced, and they were just standing still and hugging each other, which can be seen.
Moreover, the witch ghost was obviously afraid that excessive renovation of the room would cause the magic array to backfire, so it covered the wall with curtains, and the floor was covered with rain flower stones and carpets.
After a rough exploration, Angel did not find anything unusual... well, there was no treasure.
The only item with extraordinary traces was a square box that was a little old and yellowed next to the pillow of the gauze curtain soft bed.
This box felt cold to the touch, and it was not made of metal, but a bone box. It is impossible to determine which kind of creature the bone is, but this bone has the property of isolating energy prying, and it is estimated to be from an extraordinary creature.
Although the box can block energy from being peeped, the effect is not very good. Perhaps the passage of time has caused the degree of energy isolation to be very meager.
If Angel really wants to check the situation in the box, he can still check it with his mental power. However, this thing is old and yellow, and even has faint cracks. Angel is afraid that forcibly peeping will directly cause the box to fall apart, so he did not explore it.
Besides, the box itself is not locked, so there is no need to destroy it.
Angel has no interest in the things in the box for the time being, because there is no energy breath escaping from it, and it is estimated that it is also filled with ordinary things.
However, some patterns and texts on the outer shell of the box have attracted Angel's attention. A simple hollow logo is carved on the lid of the box, half of which has been broken, but from the other half, it can be roughly seen that it seems to be "Garden City Bathed in Sunlight".
Below this logo, there is a row of text in the same hollow carving style, but a large part of it has been damaged. Angel can only barely recognize "XX Forbidden Prison XXX Laboratory Building XXX".
There are words in the front, and the last few can be vaguely seen to be numbers, but the specific numbers have been basically erased.
However, from these words and the numbers behind them, it can be basically determined that this is a box that was mass-produced. It is estimated that it was distributed to many institutions, and this box belongs to "such and such a forbidden prison".
Angell didn't know where the witch ghost found this box. If it was found here, perhaps this is the so-called "such and such a forbidden prison's laboratory building"?
Angell looked at the other sides of the box again. There was no trace on the side, but a familiar carving appeared on the back.
——Silver snakes coiled around a bone staff.
If it was the first time he saw it, Angell might still be surprised. But on the instrument fragments of the previous laboratory, Angell saw the same logo.
So, when he saw this logo suspected to be related to the "Baiyuan people" again, Angell's mood did not fluctuate too much.
Maybe the Baiyuan people are really related to Naraku City, and even the Baiyuan people participated in some experiments in Naraku City... But these are things of the past, and Angel does not want to explore them at this time.
However, he can tell Duoduoluo about what he found here.
Duoduoluo is a person without a past, and it is a very sad thing to have no past. You don't know where you came from, why you exist, and where you will go in the future. If Duoduoluo wants to pursue the past of the tribe and his own past, perhaps the Garden Maze will be a starting point.
However, Duoduoluo now has the best prediction ability, but his personal strength is really not enough. Therefore, even if he tells Duoduoluo, Angel will let him wait until he is fully grown before making a decision.
As for hiding Duoduoluo now and talking about it in the future, Angel has never thought about this situation.
First, he didn't want to hide it from Duoduoluo, and it was not certain that he could hide it; second, based on his understanding of Duoduoluo, he still did not regard himself as a source worshiper, and his recognition of the tribe was very low. Even if he told him, Duoduoluo would probably not pursue it now.
Perhaps only after Duoduoluo became a formal wizard and accepted the baptism of the source fire of the ancestral altar, he would have more knowledge? At that time, Angel believed that Duoduoluo was already able to stand on his own. Whether he chose to pursue the past or continue to be himself, Angel would support him.
"Is there any treasure?" Angel's deep thinking was finally interrupted by Dox's repeated questions in the mind band.
Dox: "Where are you, I want to go over and see, you are the leader, you can't hide it!"
Dox was shouting before, and Angel ignored it, but now Angel has basically explored it, so he can respond.
"The room I accidentally discovered should be the room of the witch ghost outside. The furnishings here are very similar to the boudoir of an ordinary girl..." Angle paused and changed his wording: "Or, this is the boudoir of an ordinary girl."
Dox: "Ordinary girl? Are you talking about the witch ghost?"
Angel: "You can understand it this way. Since this is the boudoir of an 'ordinary' girl, then there will definitely not be the various treasures you guessed before."
Excluding the two armored witch ghosts, Angel roughly described the situation here.
"It's fragile, but it carries a witch's pursuit of beauty?" After listening to it, Dox curled his lips: "I think you don't have to be so cautious. Brokenness is beautiful. Those relics and ruins are very beautiful, right? Kael?"
In order to prove his perverse theory, Dox also dragged Kael. However, Kael is really a lover of ruins, so Kael agrees with Dox's words. However, he didn't dare to speak in the mind band.
"Coward." Dox cursed Kael, and then said to Angel on the other side of the mind band: "Let's get back to the topic. According to you, the only treasure there is the box in your hand now?"
"This is not a treasure, but just a little trace of the extraordinary, very thin, and useless." Angel said casually.
"What's in the box?"
"I don't know."
After learning that Angel hadn't opened the box yet, Dox's tone immediately became excited: "Then open it now, maybe there is a treasure hidden inside."
Angel: "I personally think... you may be dreaming."
Although Angel didn't open the box, he could already hear the jingling sound inside when he turned the box over to check different sides.
There are two types of sounds, one is similar to the muffled sound of metal hitting glass, and the other is similar to the sound of glass hitting glass.
Let's not talk about the former, the sound of the latter is very familiar to Angel.
The collision between potion bottles is this kind of sound... well, it's still the low-level general-purpose glass potion bottle.
Based on these two sounds, Angel can already guess what is inside.
- Fragrance bottle, and some metal objects... For example, jewelry?
There is a faint fragrance in this room, but Angel has never found the source. At first, he thought that the fragrance was carried by the witch ghost. But now that I heard the sound of the potion bottles colliding, I was basically sure that there was fragrance inside.
"I'm dreaming? Although I know you are scolding me, as long as you honestly tell me what's in the box, I can admit that I'm dreaming." Dox was very bored at this time. The only thing that could arouse his interest was the unknown box on Angel's side.
Curiosity about the unknown is an innate instinct of human beings, and the unknown box can stimulate people's desire to explore.
This situation is not only in the wizarding world, but also in the human culture of the earth.
In mythology, this is called Pandora's Box.
In reality, this is called opening a blind box.
And what Angel is going to do now is called... live broadcast of opening a blind box.
Angel could sense Dox's fanatical emotions, and he could also sense that Wai and Kael were also silently looking forward to what was in the box.
Since they were so curious, Angel thought about it and decided to try remote live broadcast.
Although everyone was shrouded in the fixed illusion arranged by Angel, and not far from Angel, Angel was in a closed building at this time, and was still in the expansion space in the building.
It was not easy to control the illusion nodes in the illusion outside with the heavy magic array blocking.
This made Angel admire the Black Earl. The Black Earl's mind tether had been maintained very smoothly until now. If it was Angel's mind tether, it would probably be directly isolated by the magic array as soon as it entered the building.
It can only be said that the Black Earl is worthy of being a big boss, and the details show the truth.
Angel tried several times in a row, but he couldn't mobilize the illusion nodes outside. It was not until he began to mobilize the power of nightmare illusion that he got a response from the illusion outside.
However, the illusion nodes that responded were still very weak, which might be because Angel didn't have much nightmare power left outside.
But if it was just a live broadcast of opening a blind box, instead of showing all the details of the whole room, it should be fine... right?
With an attitude of trying, Angell started the first live broadcast of blind box unboxing.
…
At this time, everyone who was excitedly waiting for Angell to tell them the contents of the box suddenly felt that the illusion around them had changed slightly.
In the "Huh" sound of the Black Earl.
A phantom light screen as small as a dinner plate appeared in front of everyone.
Angel tried to control the illusion node and simulated waving.
"Can you see my hand waving?" Angell's voice came from the mind band.
Dox stared at the scene in front of him blankly: "...Is this your hand?"
"Yes, it seems that you should be able to see it. Since you can see it, then I'm ready to open the box."
After Angell finished speaking, he quickly controlled the phantom light screen to simulate the appearance of the box.
Although Angell could directly release the answer, after thinking about it, he decided to go through a "ritualistic" process.
He then simulated his own hands, pointing at the box and explaining: "This is the box you've been thinking about. It looks ordinary, right?"
"In fact, it is indeed ordinary, and many places are broken." Angel also began to adjust the "lens", zooming in to let everyone see the carvings on the lid.
Because of his experience in operating the drama shadow box, Angel was very smooth when switching lenses. And this kind of picture change, combined with the verbal explanation, really aroused everyone's sense of participation.
Even the Black Earl looked at Angel's "live broadcast" with surprise and curiosity.
Of course, the Black Count knew that Angel was just manipulating the illusion, and was not actually transmitting his current image, but it must be said that this was the first time that the Black Count had seen this form, and with Angel constantly explaining beside him, the sense of substitution really came out.
However, although there was a sense of substitution, the Black Count felt a little strange when he thought that Angel was just making an illusion... or playing a monkey trick. The most important thing was that Angel explained in the mind band in a serious manner, as if he was really sharing his experience with everyone.
"How did you hold back from being embarrassed?" The Black Count really wanted to ask this question at this time.
Based on his understanding of Angel, Angel should not do such an embarrassing thing... Although this form is indeed very interesting, it would be a bit strange if Angel did it.
What the Black Count did not know was that Angel's enlightenment was completely different from others. Under Jon's teaching, he understood a lot of earth culture. Based on this premise, Angel did not find this form embarrassing.
Moreover, Angel had made many drama shadow boxes himself. In his opinion, the drama shadow boxes were similar to the current situation. The only difference was that he added self-talk to make others feel involved.
Besides, Angel could not control many illusion nodes, and the illusion light screen was only as big as a dinner plate, and Angel's face could not be seen. Why was he embarrassed?
At first, the Black Earl thought that Angel would not be able to continue the conversation, but Angel spoke very steadily, like a mentor in the classroom, and he spoke his personal views on the box without rushing or slowing down. He was not embarrassed, but the Black Earl felt embarrassed.
The Black Earl did not want to be embarrassed for Angel. After forcibly holding back the embarrassment, he saw it in a broad mind. As long as Angel's illusion produced a real picture, it was not a monkey show.
If Angel was fake and treated them as fools, they could feel it. When Angel came back, there would naturally be a corresponding "reward".
After seeing it in a broad mind, the Black Earl was no longer embarrassed and looked very carefully. At the same time, he felt that Angel was becoming more and more interesting... Unfortunately, the only flaw was that he had Sanders as his mentor.
On the other hand, Dox and others did not think that Angel was playing a monkey trick. It was not that they had not thought of that level, but they just felt that Angel did not need to deceive them in this way.
Moreover, satisfying their curiosity about the unknown was not a bad thing in itself.
…
"I have almost seen the outside of the box, and now I should open it. To be honest, I actually have a rough idea of what is inside, but unfortunately I don't have many special illusion nodes left in the outside world, so I can't simulate the sound. Otherwise, you can guess what is inside just by listening to the sound."
At this moment, Angel, who was sitting cross-legged on the rain flower stone, talked to himself while really showing the real situation in a rigid manner as shown in the illusion.
He did not make up illusions randomly because there was no need. Moreover, if he made up illusions while doing real-time commentary on the mind tie, it would be a bit difficult for Angel, who was trying "live broadcast" for the first time.
In the eyes of everyone, and also in Angel's own eyes, he stretched out his hand and slowly opened the box.
There was nothing strange, nor any traps, the box was easily opened, revealing the contents inside.
There were only three things in the box.
It was exactly what Angel guessed, two bottles of perfume and a metal ornament.
Angel: "See, I told you you were dreaming, but you didn't believe it. Now, are you awake?"
Dox: "... Are you sure you didn't cheat?"
Angel didn't respond to this, but just snorted coldly. Cheating or not, if you really want to investigate, can't they see it with their abilities?
What's more, the Black Earl was also looking at the illusion light screen, and Angel didn't have the courage to treat the Black Earl as a fool.
Dox sighed: "Okay, I believe you. I was dreaming today..."
Dox would bow his head, which was something Angel had expected, so he was not surprised. He didn't continue to mock Dox, but took all three items out of the box.
Although they are all not very good things, just like the carvings on the box lid, there may be some information left on them.
