Chapter 2673: Rebirth After Death

“…The rules of immersive live broadcast are roughly like this.”

After Angel finished explaining the general rules, he finally stretched, stood up and walked towards a gate in the distance.

“You have probably seen the situation in this room. Mu Ling should not be here, let’s continue to move forward.”

Looking at Angel’s slightly thin back, Wai couldn’t help but say: “Sir, are we following you?”

Angel nodded: “Yes.”

“Can your computing power support it?” Wai was worried. Just in this room, he felt that the amount of calculation required for restoration was very large. Angel had to take them while walking and constantly synchronizing illusions. Just thinking about it, he felt that the computing power consumption must be very terrifying.

Angel was younger than him. Could his computing power really support such a huge consumption?

“Yes.” Angel nodded. Wai’s mind was all on his face, so he could probably guess what he was thinking at a glance.

"Don't worry." After thinking for a moment, Angel explained: "In the illusion department, there is a term called illusion logic."

"If you want to confuse others, the first thing is to determine the type of confusion, such as restoration, reconstruction, induction, confusion, etc. ... Then there must be a self-consistent logic chain. This logic chain will allow the illusion to develop autonomously in a self-consistent direction according to the established trajectory. And this autonomous development is the logic of illusion."

"As long as the illusion logic is determined at the beginning, it will naturally become self-consistent in the future, and it will greatly reduce the consumption of the caster."

"And as we continue to move forward, it is actually a kind of self-improvement of the logic chain. As we advance, the self-consistency speed will become faster and faster, and the consumption will gradually decrease."

Of course, what Angel said is the most ideal state, and he did not express the biggest obstacle to the illusion logic.

Variables.

When the illusion logic encounters variables that exceed the quota, it will stop evolving and the logic chain will be interrupted.

For example, illusions are generally not afraid of elemental magic, because illusions rely on "confusion", while elemental magic requires "targets". When you cannot locate the target due to confusion, then elemental magic becomes a decoration.

But nothing is absolute. If the elemental magic reaches a heavy level that cannot be covered by illusion logic, such as large-scale destruction or rapid destruction of points, it will create various unknown variables. If there are too many unknown variables, the logic chain will be broken and the illusion will naturally dissolve.

This is why wizards on the elemental side generally prefer large-scale indiscriminate attacks if they fall into illusions. Because this creates a lot of variables.

And how many variables a wizard can withstand in illusion logic has become one of the criteria for measuring whether the illusion is powerful.

Angel did not mention this purely because the variables he could withstand were quite terrifying. Even he himself did not know how many variables he could withstand because he could not test the limit.

As for why Angell can withstand such horrible variables, firstly, it is the strong stability of the power of nightmare illusion, and secondly, it is covered by the wilderness of dreams.

The essence of the "world", or the bottom layer seen under the flashy appearance, is the logic of operation.

To put it bluntly, even the world is composed of countless logics.

Although the wilderness of dreams is not a world yet, it has begun to have the prototype of the world, with countless creatures, countless vegetation, and countless variables happening every moment.

These variables, Angell usually doesn't care at all. But when he encounters the moment when he needs to bear the variables, the wilderness of dreams becomes his biggest support.

It can be said that as long as Angell is still the controller of the wilderness of dreams, he can bear more variables than the same level or even higher level illusion wizards.

With the continuous improvement of the wilderness of dreams, the variables that Angell can bear will continue to increase.

It can be said that this is a unique inheritance of the lineage of the Phantom Demon Island. The existence of nightmare can not only be used for battle, but also evolve variables. The Phantom Demon Island has nightmares, and the most powerful nightmare is Angel's dream wilderness.

"I see. I thought that if I continued walking, the computing power would gradually increase." Wai scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

"From the perspective of the environment and background alone, the computing power consumption will not be too great." Angel: "However, if you want to make physical contact with everything you encounter on the road, it will consume a lot of computing power."

"So, if you don't find something very special, try not to touch it casually."

After Angel finished speaking, he looked at Kael beside him: "Of course, except for you. However, there may be some traps here. You are different from them. They are illusions that can ignore traps, but you have to be careful."

Kael nodded: "I know."

"By the way, the spatial properties here are very disordered. You must also remember to pay attention to the spatial gaps around you."

The damage caused by spatial gaps is definitely smaller than the traps that have been left for ten thousand years. But Angel reminded Kael to focus more on traps. As for the gaps in space... Kael himself was an apprentice of the space department. Even if his combat ability was not good, his knowledge from the academy was there. He could detect any changes in space energy in the first place.

After explaining the precautions, Angel walked towards the open door.

Angel once came here in Naraku City in the Nightmare Realm. He still remembered that there was a smaller room behind the door, and then a staircase leading upward.

This is considered the zeroth floor. If you are on the first floor, you will have to climb some stairs to reach it.

After opening the door, Angel paused slightly and his pupils shrank slightly.

He somewhat understood why the Black Earl had reminded Angel to prepare a record before... because the brokenness had already appeared on the zero level.

This was originally a wooden room, but at this time, there were only broken wooden boards floating in the dark void.

These wooden boards sometimes separate and sometimes close, making plane displacements in short distances. The overall look is like floating on the water. The float is tied with a rope, so it will not float far away, and these wooden boards are fixed by the energy network of the magic energy array and will not float deep into the void.

So, this just looks scary, but as long as you don't miss the mark, there is no danger.

The wooden board is constantly moving, just like the levels of some mini-games that Angel saw on the holographic tablet. You need to find the right time to jump on it in order to successfully pass the level.

For ordinary people, you may need to be more cautious. But for Angel and Kael, this jump was naturally not difficult. They jumped directly to the opposite platform without even stepping on the board.

Angel remembered that the platform in front of him was originally the buffer zone between the room and the stairs. There should have been candles here. But now, the walls have all disappeared, not to mention the candles.

Fortunately, the stairs at the end of the platform were not completely damaged. However, it is only relatively complete. Originally, the stairs here were supposed to be a closed space, like a tomb passage, stretching, dark, cramped and long, but now the ceiling and walls of the stairs have disappeared.

There is only one solitary staircase leading to the unknown void.

Looking at the completely different scene here from the prison ladder in the nightmare world, Angel was quite emotional. From the messy scene here, he could imagine how terrifying it was when the void storm occurred here.

"Let's go upstairs. The wood spirit shouldn't be here." Angel said to Kael.

Kael nodded and looked around. The platform was empty, and there were no abnormalities in the wooden boards floating here and there. The chance of the wood spirit being here was almost zero.

However, just as Kael was about to follow Angel up the stairs, he heard a scream from behind.

Kael was startled, thinking he was being attacked, and immediately put on a defensive posture.

However, when I looked back, I realized that no one was attacked, but Vai stepped off the board and fell into the dark void. The scream just now was made by Vai.

"Sir, he..." Kael wanted to ask Angel why Vai fell into the void as an illusion? But before he could speak, Vai walked in again from the opposite door.

Kael's eyes widened: "He, didn't he fall down?"

Not only Kael, but others also looked at Vai curiously.

Doakes even directly turned on the taunting mode: "If you cross a plank, you can step on it. You should continue to stay in the house from now on."

With the wise master nearby, Vai did not dare to reply at this time, for fear of being noticed by the other party. I could only pretend to be respectful and innocent and said: "I just thought that stepping on the wooden board might increase the calculation power of the adults, so I didn't step on it. Who knows, I just fell down."

The Black Earl also asked at this time: "Then how did you come back?"

Vai scratched his head: "I don't know what happened. Anyway, after falling, my vision went dark. I saw a character representing 'death' appeared in front of me, and there was a white skull below."

"I thought I was really dead, but when I opened my eyes, I appeared at the door outside."

After hearing what Vai said, everyone looked at Angel in unison. There is no doubt that this incredible drama was caused by Angel.

Angel: "What you saw were all illusions. How could it be dangerous? As for starting over, this is just a setting."

Doakes: "You mean, as long as we 'die' here, we have to start over again?"

Angel nodded: "That's pretty much it."

"What's the point of doing this?" Doakes didn't understand what Angel was thinking.

Angel: "It makes sense. Starting over can clear away the redundant information on you and reduce the burden on my computing power. And all you have to do is run the route again."

"This is also the inspiration given to me by the wise master."

The wise master looked at Angel with confusion. What inspiration had he given? Why didn't he know?

Angel: "The wise master said before that cherishing life and understanding the value of life are rare advantages. I think so too, so I set up a small obstacle for the live broadcast to warn you, even if you are Even in the illusion, you must maintain respect for life and don’t seek death easily.”

The wise man ruled: "..." Is this how you understand his words?

When everyone was speechless, Vai looked moved: "It turns out that it was for my own good that I kept reverence for life...I understand!"

Listening to Vai's confused speech, everyone's expressions also became confused. What kind of spirit is this that can move oneself so quickly?

The wise master looked at Vai and Angel curiously, secretly guessing what their relationship was.

Doakes: "Not to mention other things, what about the 'dead' character and the skull illusion?"

"Although it is a fake death, it still needs to have a sense of ritual."

A sense of ritual? !

Listening to Angel's serious nonsense, Doakes felt as if he had returned to the Princess Town in a dream. This guy seemed serious, but in fact he was rotten at heart, and his behavior was sometimes full of bad taste. Just like when he went up to the third floor from the second floor of the Princess Castle, he could go up directly, but Angel insisted on giving a test to those talented people.

The same goes for 'Rabbit Chacha' later on. Originally, there was no need to do anything to break through the level, but Angel insisted on creating a "Twelve Constellations Palace", which made everyone miserable. As a result, the reward after breaking the level was to live in a more luxurious house.

It can be seen from these details that Angel has something wrong with him.

To put it nicely, it’s called a test. But speaking seriously, it means being naughty and having a bad taste.

"It's just an insignificant little setting. Just be careful not to commit suicide, and you won't die." Angel: "Let's go, don't waste time. If the wood spirit is here and sees me talking to the air for most of the day, , I guess I’ll be scared too.”

Angel turned around and walked up the hanging ladder gracefully.

Vai hurriedly chased after him. This time he didn't miss the mark and successfully jumped onto the platform.

Even the person involved, Vai, looked careless, and the others didn't take it seriously. As Angel himself said, as long as you pay attention and don't commit suicide, you won't die.

…

Angel's walking speed was not fast, it could even be said to be very slow.

Just like a mortal, stepping on the stairs step by step. It was said that he was cautious, but he couldn't tell how carefully Angel looked around. Instead, he seemed to be casually strolling in the garden.

Everyone thought it was strange at first, but then they understood that Angel wanted not only to explore, but also to simultaneously update the illusion around them.

Presumably, this is also a way to reduce computing power consumption?

However, they all guessed wrong. The reason why Angel walked slowly was purely because he was imitating... imitating himself in the nightmare world.

At this moment, Angel's mind seemed to be divided into two pictures. One picture is of Angel when he was still a mortal, walking alone on the ladder of the prison in the nightmare world; the other picture is a real scene in reality.

The ego is high above, overlooking these two pictures.

While walking, compare the differences in the pictures.

By comparing the differences, Angel can understand what has been damaged here, or what is extra. Through this, we might be able to find traces of the wood spirit.

The length from level 0 to level 1 is much shorter than Angel's impression.

He remembered that he was in the Nightmare World and walked for about ten minutes before reaching the first floor. But now, at the same speed, he only walked half the time before he saw the door on the first floor.
