Chapter 3191 Siege Main Station
To get the recognition of the crystal embryo under the crystal pool, the probability is about one in a thousand. It seems that the probability is very small, but if the base number is enlarged, the number of crystal embryos sent out in the end will still be large.
And the people coming to this regular multi-ethnic gathering can definitely amplify this base to the extreme.
What's more, the crystal pool can also operate in secret to recruit some strong people in the crystal embryo.
As a result, more crystal embryos are sent out.
Moreover, each crystal embryo will be customized...
Just thinking about it, Angel felt that this was a bit too generous. Are the Jingmu clan really so generous? Are they really just little angels who deliver benefits without asking for anything in return?
Angel didn't believe it, and neither did Laplace.
That's why they speculated that the Jingmu Clan was doing this to secretly observe the powerful?
It's just... just observing in secret, it doesn't seem to be a big deal? For the strong, being noticed is what they deserve.
But if it wasn't for this reason, Angel really couldn't think of any other reason.
No way, the Jingmu clan really has nothing to ask for and is full of gratitude?
"This Cassata may be the key." Angel murmured softly.
"What's the key?" Luigi was still immersed in what happened before and didn't understand what Angel was talking about at all.
Angel: "The summoning ceremony of the Ring Castle and the internal decision of the Crystal Pool are two completely different things. The only thing that connects these two things together is the Cassata."
“Both of these incidents seem to us to have some strange intrigues, and Cassata played an important role in both incidents at the same time. Does that mean that behind these intrigues are actually the same thing? And the leader is Cassata?”
Angel shrugged: "Of course, it's possible that we are paranoid. But the appearance of Cassata is indeed strange."
Before Luigi could react, he subconsciously asked: "Why is it strange?"
Laplace said calmly: "The news about Cassata was from you, why have you forgotten it now?"
Luigi's eyes paused for a moment before he realized: he had previously sent a message on behalf of Gleipnir, which included news about Cassata.
According to the information from Fada, Cassata was promoted to elder six hundred years ago. Although he is a member of the Presbyterian Church, Cassata is the most reclusive elder. He always stays in the forbidden area and rarely appears in front of the public.
The Cassata can only be seen during the most important sacrifices, when all the elders are gathered together. Otherwise, not even Fada would be able to recognize Cassata's appearance.
It can be seen from this that Cassata is an extremely low-key person, and he will not show up easily.
But this time, he appeared continuously, which is worth mentioning.
Are regular multi-ethnic gatherings important? Important, but not as important as imagined.
As long as there are no major accidents, most of the ethnic groups in the Mirror Region will send people to the regular multi-ethnic gatherings, so it must be important.
But there is a proviso here. Since it is called a "regular" gathering, it means that it is not just held once or twice and then gone, but a long-term event that will continue in the future.
This kind of routine gathering has been going on for thousands of years. If it is long, it will be held once every few decades; if it is short, it will be held once every few years.
So, to say it's important is okay. The longer you live, the more parties you attend.
And will Cassata come out specifically for a regular multi-ethnic gathering?
In Luigi's opinion, no.
The reason is simple. The Jingmu tribe hosted a regular multi-ethnic gathering more than ten years ago, and at that gathering, according to the information provided by Fada, Kasata did not appear.
Although this gathering was held in Crystal City, the real supporters were Pilusiu and the Jinghai Scholars. The Jingmu Clan was just a venue. For the Jingmu Clan, there was obviously no such gathering as that one more than ten years ago. important.
But this time, Cassata appeared.
Thinking about it this way, the appearance of Cassata is indeed full of doubts. He doesn't seem like someone who values parties, but he is actively doing some things, and some of these things are obviously problematic, such as the ring fort ceremony; and some of them seem reasonable, but there seems to be some tricks behind them. For example, the crystal embryo of the crystal pool is predetermined.
"So, it's possible that Cassata is a key figure." Luigi raised his eyes: "How about I go and find out? I'm not familiar with the Mist Dragon that has a crystal embryo embedded in it, but I have seen it. It, it should know me too."
Angel shook his head without even thinking about it: "If you go to it to inquire, don't you tell it clearly that you are peeping at it? Moreover, you also peeped into the mist. I guess it will look at you as soon as you say it. You took action."
According to the judgment given by Laplace before, Luigi definitely couldn't defeat the fog dragon, and Luigi couldn't explain why he knew the secret. Going to ask the fog dragon would only lead to a one-sided beating, which is unnecessary. .
"Let's wait for the news from Graipnir later." Angel had a hunch that the information Graipnir found from Hilda would probably be related to this.
If it doesn't matter, that's better.
The main reason why they pay attention to these matters is because of "Li Tower". If the Li Tower matter has nothing to do with Cassata, then the solution should be very simple, and Gleipnir can handle it alone.
But it’s really related to Cassata or the secrets of the Crystal Eyes. It’s a bit difficult to solve... Of course, you can also let Lita leave Crystal City like Fada said, but if the involvement is really serious... Shen, can just leaving solve the problem?
Angel did not continue to think about it. The specific situation would be known after the results from Gleipnir. Regarding this matter, he was just a distant spectator. If it wasn't for Gleipnir, he wouldn't bother to pay attention.
…
After passing through the last halo, guided by the "signs", Angel and others finally arrived at the main station of the siege party.
As soon as Fu came out, the first thing Angel saw was the familiar corridor and fence.
There is no doubt that there is almost no difference in shape between the construction of the main station and the previous ring fort. The only difference is... big, big, very big!
The previous ring fort could be seen on the opposite side at a glance.
At this time, he was leaning on the fence of the unknown floor of the ring fort, looking across the way to see the faint clouds and mist, as well as the faint outline at the end of the clouds and mist.
This feeling is like looking at the distant mountains.
But now, this vague outline represents the ring fortress opposite.
It can be seen from this that the size of the ring fort has exceeded imagination.
Looking from a distance, it is already full of clouds and fog, and looking down from the railing, it is even more difficult to see the bottom at a glance.
Angel has seen ring forts with dozens or hundreds of floors before, but the height of this ring fort...or depth, has far exceeded all the previous ring forts.
Melaleuca? Or even more?
The same goes for looking up, you can't see the top at all, just layers of corridors, circles of fences, and various styles of stairs.
Angel didn't know how big it was specifically, but he had to say that the current ring fort was enough to be called an architectural wonder!
The size of Crystal City is enough to be called a wonder, but this is from the outside; and inside Crystal City, with the blessing of various spatial expansions, the size has far exceeded the carrying capacity of Crystal City. This ring fort alone is as big as Than a super city.
Although Angel only had a glimpse, he had already imagined in his mind that the Ring Castle was as terrifying in size and capacity as a city.
Jon has always thought about recreating the New City into the punk capital described in various novels on Earth. The current New City is indeed developing in the direction of fantasy punk, but it still has not reached the point where Jon is satisfied.
If Jon could see this ringed fortress, he would probably be shocked by it; even if this place is not fantasy punk, it is not far from the punk city in his heart.
Such an architectural wonder is already impressive. What is even more impressive is the bustling signs and shops, as well as the densely packed people on each floor... or humanoids, or creatures with no discernible type at all.
Angel himself felt timid about entering the "super city".
It is enough to show how huge the main siege party station is. The densely packed floors and crowds create the most oppressive feeling of any building Angel has ever seen!
However, compared to Angel's "ignorance", Luigi and Laplace on the side looked much calmer.
"How do you feel?" Luigi stepped forward.
Angel breathed a sigh of relief: "Before, I thought that with hundreds of ring forts and various stall areas, the crowd participating in the party was too scattered. Now that I came here, I realized that it was I underestimated the number of people at the party.”
There must be more than just the Jingmu clan with such a dense population. Angel didn't know if there were "all races", but at least the momentum felt like all races were gathering together.
"Don't you have anything else to say besides lamenting the large number of people?" Luigi continued to ask.
Angel pondered for a moment and then said: "There seems to be a powerful force here. Although I can't feel the source or malice at the moment, I always feel that this force is about to spurt out at any time."
Luigi: "You should be talking about Crystal City's defense mechanism, which is aimed at those who do not obey the rules. However, this kind of power only restrains some weak people. It is nothing to the strong."
Angel looked up at Luigi: "Then with this defense mechanism, are you strong or weak?"
Luigi's expression paused, and he turned his head in embarrassment and coughed twice: "This is not important. Anyway, you only need to know that there is a defense mechanism. As long as you don't start a fight here, it will not cause a rebound of that force."
After finishing speaking, Luigi immediately changed the subject: "Besides, is there anything else you want to say?"
Angel: "???" Didn't I say enough?
Luigi sighed: "Don't you want to know, with so many floors, how do we get there if we want to find a place?"
Angell: “…when you’re in the middle of a macro narrative, details tend to get overlooked.”
"Huh?" Luigi didn't understand. The tone of this poem seemed familiar.
Angel: "What I mean is that changes in vision and mood need to be made step by step. I haven't reached your level yet."
Luigi nodded as if he understood: "Well, since I brought it up, you should have taken this step, right?"
Angel: "I understand. You want me to ask you for advice on how to get here? I'm asking now."
"Obviously I'm kindly giving you knowledge, why are you still reluctant..." Luigi murmured in a low voice before saying: "Although there are many floors here, there are actually many short-distance teleportation arrays on each floor. You can think of it as Special 'skipping' stairs, just take the skipping stairs to whichever floor you want to go. ”
When Luigi said this, he pointed to a place a hundred meters away where a crowd gathered: "Did you see that, that must be where the jumping stairs are."
As he said that, Luigi was already walking towards the jumping stairs.
Angel glanced at Laplace and followed him.
"Where are we going now?" Angel: "To Piruxiu's station?"
Luigi: "I don't know which floor Piruxiu's station is on, let's go to the hundredth floor first."
Hundredth floor?
Angel was just beginning to wonder when he heard Luigi explain: "The stations of each tribe are arranged on the hundredth floor, so if you want to find a station, the hundredth floor is the fastest."
Although Luigi didn't know which floor Piruxiu's station was on, he could just find a station and ask directly.
Luigi couldn't wait to punish Piruxiu who had blocked him.
The so-called skip-floor staircase, when viewed from a distance, had a lot of people gathered, but it operated very quickly. By the time Angel and others arrived, several groups of people had been teleported, leaving only a few scattered people around.
Moreover, from the looks of them, it didn't seem like they were going to skip floors, but rather like they were waiting for someone.
Just as Angel was observing these people, one of them, a woman with a mirror on her head... a suspected woman, walked towards them.
Her purpose is unknown, but the mirror on her face shows a very pleasing smile.
"Everyone, the shop No. 219 of the small mirror is having a 20% discount. Do you want to go and have a look? There are very good products~" A thin, soft, but synthetic voice came from the mirror.
Angel was originally wondering if the other party knew Luigi, but he didn't expect that he was a door-to-door salesman.
Luigi waved his hand and said no.
The mirror girl was also very tactful and smiled and stepped back.
Angel approached Luigi and asked, "Why don't you ask her if she has any sheet music for sale?"
Luigi shook his head: "The head mirror tribe can't appreciate our music. Their way of communication is different from ours."
The head mirror tribe is a humanoid race with a mirror head.
This is a "stream of consciousness" tribe.
Their consciousness can move in all the head mirrors in the tribe, so their core is consciousness, and the body... can be completely shared.
For example, the body of the woman in front of me can be Xiaohong's consciousness during the day, and Xiaohong's body can be replaced by Xiaolu after get off work. If Xiaolu wants to be lazy, Xiaolan can take over, and Xiaohuang can come when Xiaolan is gone.
In this way, the body can be shared.
This kind of pure stream of consciousness race communicates internally through consciousness, and the external communication is "synthetic dialogue", so it is unlikely to let them appreciate music.
If you can't even appreciate it, how can you have good music scores?
"What's more, didn't you hear the name of their store? It's already number 219. If you really want to visit the store of the head mirror family, just visit the first ten, no, the first three."
