Section 3461: Secret Operation
As Laplace explained, Angel gradually understood the inside story.
When Hong Gemata led the team to explore the mirror space, they encountered a mirror space with cemetery ruins. Then he unfortunately met the original owner of the cemetery and the current undead, and finally died tragically in the ruins.
As for why Laplace was sure that the tattooed man was the undead from the ruins.
It was because Hong Gemata and the two vice-captains encountered the undead together, and the two vice-captains were killed by the undead first.
After Laplace entered the Dream Crystal Plains, he briefly described the appearance of the tattooed man. The two vice-captains immediately confirmed that the tattooed man was the undead who killed them.
"However, there are also some strange things here."
Angel: "Something strange?"
Laplace explained: "According to Hong Gemata's teammates, when they searched the cemetery owner's room, they only saw the dead Hong Gemata and the bodies of the two deputy captains."
"I didn't see the undead."
"If it hadn't been for today, after the two vice-captains entered the Dream Crystal Plains, they jointly stated that they were killed by the undead. Others would have thought that the three of them were killed by the ruins mechanism."
Angel roughly understood: "In other words, the two vice-captains were killed by the undead of the ruins first. After they died, Honggemata also died, but Honggemata may have done something, The undead also disappeared, so the people who helped them collect the corpses didn’t even know about the existence of the undead.”
Laplace nodded and said, "That's right. The strange question now is, what did Hong Gemata do after the death of the two vice-captains?"
Angel: "If there is no other evidence and we just go by the words of his teammates and speculate, it may be that the Red Gemata died together with the undead, which has relieved a major exploration difficulty for those who come after us."
"But now, we know that the Red Gemma Pagoda and the undead ruins are on the same dream bridge... so the theory of dying together may be inaccurate."
When Angel said this, he pondered for a moment: "I have a guess. Maybe when Hong Gemata faced the undead from the ruins alone, he did something to merge the undead from the ruins with himself... Or he sealed the undead ruins with his own body."
Laplace immediately understood what Angel meant: "So, after the death of Hong Gemata, the undead soul also followed his consciousness and slept in the holy corpse crystal."
"Until today, the Holy Corpse Crystal of the Red Gemata was unsealed. Under the influence of the Dreaming Technique, he and the ruined undead were both activated and stepped into the Dream Bridge..."
Angel nodded: "Yes, only this situation can explain why two souls will emerge from a holy corpse crystal."
Laplace also agreed with Angel's guess, because this situation also explained why the latecomers only found the bodies of Red Gemata and the deputy captain, but did not encounter the undead.
After a pause, Angel continued: "However, even if one holy corpse crystal contains two souls, I still don't understand how they can enter a dream bridge."
Two souls should be two bridges of dreams.
What went wrong?
Laplace pondered: "Perhaps there is some kind of fusion between the souls of the undead ruins and the souls of the Red Gemata. In fact, they are not two souls, but one soul, carrying two consciousnesses?"
At first glance, Laplace's guess seemed reasonable.
But the premise is that there really is such a thing as "soul fusion".
At least, with Angel's understanding and knowledge, he had never heard of soul fusion.
Moreover, one is an undead and the other is an ordinary soul. How to fuse them? Even if they are truly integrated, the negative energy contained in the undead's body can easily erode the Red Gemata. When the undead are assimilated, it will be difficult to remain conscious...
Eh, that's not right.
Angel suddenly thought of something. The Red Gemata and the man with the tattooed face on the Dream Bridge would scold each other during the fight.
Although they couldn't understand what they were yelling at, they were clearly conscious.
Angel frowned: "Are you sure it's the undead, not the undead?"
The so-called undead are actually fallen souls. Almost all undead are full of weirdness, negative energy, killing, blood and darkness.
The undead have no sense and only know how to kill.
Only living souls or dead souls have reason. Living soul means that the body is still alive, but the soul is out of the body. The undead means that the body is dead and the soul no longer has any support.
Among them, the rationality of the living soul is the most complete.
Although the undead has reason, it has begun to be affected by negative energy, and will become more indifferent and cruel over time, until it eventually degenerates into the undead.
If the man with the tattooed face is an undead, he is unconscious, his consciousness is chaotic, and he cannot have reason.
But the tattooed man on the Dream Bridge has clear eyes, and he definitely doesn’t look like he’s lost his mind.
Therefore, Angel suspected that he might not be an undead.
Facing Angel's inquiry, Laplace hesitated: "The two vice-captains of the Red Gemata team were talking about the undead of the ruins. Maybe they made a mistake?"
After all, undead are relatively rare in the Sun Mirror Realm, and it is normal for them to be mistaken.
Angel pondered for a moment and waved his hand: "Forget it, whether it is an admission of mistake or not, and whether the soul of Hong Gemata is integrated with the other party, it is difficult to get clear answers to these questions based on our imagination alone."
"After Hong Ge Ma Ta and the 'relic spirit' enter the Dream Crystal Plain, we will know directly by asking them."
Laplace also nodded. It would be clearer to ask the parties involved than to ask anyone else.
However...
"Didn't you say that the two of them were fighting on the Dream Bridge?" Laplace was a little skeptical. Could they stop in a short time and enter the Dream Crystal Plain?
Angel didn't know when they would stop fighting.
If they couldn't stop in a short time, if it really didn't work, I would go to the mountain if the mountain didn't come to me.
If they didn't enter the Dream Gate, he would move the Dream Gate to their side.
However, Angel didn't say these words, but said to Laplace: "It should be soon, let's go online first and wait."
Laplace didn't ask any more questions and went online at the same time as Angel.
Although there was a little episode on Hong Ge Ma Ta's side, the other crystal eye people were not surprised. Moreover, during the period when Angel and Laplace were offline, they had already completed the final statistics.
After Angel came online, he asked the manager of Rabbit Building to complete the connection with them.
Not long after, this batch of new residents of the Crystal Eye Tribe, led by Ivda and Bonida, began to move towards Rabbit Town and move towards their own... new life.
Yota and the Giant City Spirit stayed where they were. After Angel and Laplace came online, they could feel that the other party seemed to have something to say... probably about Hong Gemata.
However, they were busy handing over the number of people before, so they didn't ask at the first time.
Now that the people of the Crystal Eye Tribe have all gone to Rabbit Town, it's quiet here, just in time to ask what's going on.
Angel: "There is indeed a little surprise on Hong Gemata's side. We found that there may be two consciousness fluctuations in his holy corpse crystal..."
After all, it involves the power control of the "Dream Gate", Angel did not say the specific situation, but changed his words.
Yota was a little puzzled: "Two waves of consciousness, what does this mean?"
Angel shook his head: "I don't know, this is the first time I've seen this situation."
Yota: "Then can he enter the Dream Crystal Origin now?"
Angel did not hide it and said bluntly: "He has been online, but he is still stuck in the Dream Bridge stage. We don't know what happened. Maybe his consciousness is still rigid? Or maybe he was affected by the two waves of consciousness and something unexpected happened?"
When Yota counted the number of people before, he had learned about their experiences from the new residents of the Crystal Eye Tribe.
After entering the Dream Bridge, they all had a period of consciousness recovery without exception.
After all, it is normal for thinking to be rigid and consciousness to solidify after sleeping for so long.
So, when Angel said that Hong Gemata might have a rigid consciousness and had not recovered yet, he could understand...As for whether it might be related to the two waves of consciousness? Even Angel couldn't explain it clearly, so he could only listen to it for the time being.
At this time, the palace gate above the giant city spirit opened, and a harsh voice came out: "What should we do now? Stay here and wait for him to come online? I don't have so much time to waste with him."
Yota coughed and said hurriedly: "I'll stay here and wait. You should go back to Rabbit Town. I believe you are needed more there... and Ivda must be waiting for you too."
The giant city spirit raised his head, and the window representing his nose opened a little. He sneered inside: "Your eyesight is quite good. When Ivda left before, she looked back at me frequently. I think you saw it... OK, I'll leave this to you. I'll go find sister Ivda first."
The giant city spirit said hello to Angel and Laplace again, and then walked towards Rabbit Town with a graceful step.
After walking more than ten steps with a swaying figure, the giant city spirit suddenly thought of something, turned his head and said: "If you need me here, call me at any time."
Yota smiled and nodded.
The giant city spirit said no more and returned to Rabbit Town in high spirits.
When the giant city spirit left, Yota looked at Angel and Laplace apologetically: "I'm sorry, I delayed you because of Hong Gemata's matter. Otherwise, you go and do your work first, and leave this to me."
Angel: "It's okay, I'm actually very curious why Hong Gemata didn't come in for a long time. If he really has any accidents, it's our responsibility."
"So, let's stay here and wait together."
Having said this, Yota stopped persuading.
They chatted about the situation of the Dream Crystal Origin while waiting silently.
During this process, Angel also did two things at the same time, paying attention to the situation on the Dream Bridge while observing the changes around Rabbit Town.
After all, 300 crystal eye people came at one time, and there were many geniuses with personality among them.
Maybe it fits the prerequisite of a certain copy.
So, Angel was so cautious in his observation. If a fairyland really appeared suddenly, he would not be at a loss.
Ten minutes passed... everything was calm.
Apparently, he might have been overthinking, as the Crystal Eye Tribe did not trigger a new fairyland copy.
However, not triggering now does not mean that it will not trigger in the future. It is very likely that the preconditions have not been met.
On the other hand, the "fight" on the Dream Bridge has not ended yet.
Moreover, according to Angel's observation, the fight between Hong Gemata and the tattooed man has become more and more intense, and both sides have even begun to think of ways to push the other side out of the Dream Bridge.
However, they might not be able to jump over the Dream Bridge even if they tried their best, let alone push others.
Their intention of "killing the other party" indirectly confirmed the words of the two vice-captains. It is very likely that the tattooed man is really the "relic undead".
Hong Gemata watched his two vice-captains being killed by the relic undead. How could he calm down his anger if he didn't avenge this?
And now, the relic undead appeared in front of him, and he must use all his strength to kill the other party.
This is why the two of them are unwilling to stop fighting until now.
Seeing this, Angel couldn't help but sigh deeply. According to the current situation, it is estimated that they will not stop fighting for several more hours.
Even if they stop, they may not enter the dream gate immediately.
Maybe the stop is just a "half-time break".
So, Angel decided not to wait, he would start "under-the-table operation"
He began to control the Dream Gate to move towards the two people fighting, but he did not move in a big way at once, which would make it easy for them to find him.
Instead, he moved slowly.
Only when they were rolling on the ground pinching each other, he would let the Dream Gate move forward a few more steps.
Anyway, they couldn't find the direction when rolling. Even if they saw the Dream Gate approaching, they thought they were rolling in the direction of the Dream Gate, not the Dream Gate coming towards them.
After about three minutes of "micro-manipulation", the Dream Gate was already very close to them.
And they thought they were rolling in a fight and rolled to the edge of the Dream Gate.
Hong Gemata intended to move away, but the tattooed man thought he wanted to run and pressed him to the ground and didn't allow him to move. When they looked at each other, they saw the surging anger in each other's eyes.
In an instant, their rationality was thrown behind their heads again, and they fought each other madly.
In the fight, they rolled again.
At this time, Angel made the dream gate move forward a little bit.
It was like a net for catching insects, just catching two insects rolling down from the cliff... After a flash of light, in the eyes of the two people in disbelief, their bodies began to lose weight and fell directly to the earth.
Hong Gemata and the tattooed man felt like they were falling from a high altitude, very fast at first, and then slowly began to slow down, floating in the air like bubbles.
Finally, they landed steadily.
In the eyes of Angel and others, the two of them appeared directly on the crystal field, except for a space ripple, there was no abnormality.
With their eyes opened.
The dream crystal field also welcomed two new residents...
