Chapter 3495 Divination Results

Angel still remembered that when the shadow clone was telling about Hilda's experience, he mentioned that when Hilda first entered the Knight's Castle, she ignored the choice given by the tuxedo butler, but bypassed him and searched in the hall.

After the search, Hilda obtained a rope, a flower, and a water cup. These three are special offerings used in the ceremony.

At that time, after getting these things, Hilda did not trigger the "Spiritual Transformation Ceremony".

Are these three things ownerless?

Obviously not.

These items are placed in the hall, and they must have an owner, and the owner is probably the evil knight in the castle.

Then why didn't Hilda trigger the Spiritual Transformation Ceremony when she obtained these three items?

Could it be that this is actually a trick to lure someone into a trap?

Deliberately let Hilda get some benefits first to lower her vigilance?

"You look distressed? Are you worried about Gleipnir's divination?"

Just as Angel was thinking, Laplace's voice came to his ears.

Angel: "It has nothing to do with divination. I just found a very strange place."

Angel's words made everyone at the tea table look over curiously: "Strange? What's strange?"

Angel did not hide what he was thinking, and directly told what he found.

After listening, everyone fell into a period of thinking: What Angel said seems to be a bit problematic... Why did the spirit transfer ceremony not activate when taking items in the hall?

Laplace pondered for a moment and said: "Is it what you said to deliberately lower Hilda's vigilance? I don't know."

"But, in my opinion, there are two possibilities."

Everyone looked up.

Laplace: "Either, the Knight Castle actually has no owner. Or, the owner of the castle does not care about these things."

The so-called "Knight Castle has no owner" means that the butler lied, and the Ghost Rider is not the owner of the castle; precisely because the castle has no owner, the public items in the castle taken by Hilda are considered ownerless and will not activate the spirit transfer ceremony.

However, in this case...Angel personally thinks the possibility is relatively low.

As for the reason, Angel himself couldn't explain it clearly, but he felt that the definition of "master" was a bit too broad.

According to the butler, the current owner of the castle is Ghost Rider.

Even if Ghost Rider occupied the castle by force or trickery, he can be called the owner of the castle from the perspective of ownership.

Unless, the "master" here refers specifically to the creator of the castle.

As for the second situation mentioned by Laplace, "the owner of the castle doesn't care about what Hilda took away", if you look deeper, it actually means that the owner of the castle and the "NPCs" in the castle are not in the same group.

Is this possible?

Angel thinks, yes.

Because Hilda had heard a conversation between two servants in the mirror game before. The content of their conversation was vague, but the butler was mentioned in it.

"Butler... rebellious..."

"Killing him... will violate the rules..."

From this brief conversation, it is faintly revealed that the servants and the butler do not seem to get along. Even, they may want to kill the butler.

The butler is obviously in the same group as the Ghost Rider.

Otherwise, why would the butler convey the Ghost Rider's greetings as soon as someone enters the castle?

Since the butler is in the same group as the owner of the castle, and the other NPCs want to kill the butler, doesn't that prove that the NPCs are in the same camp, and the butler and the Ghost Rider are in the same camp.

Now it is known that the NPCs will induce intruders to use things that belong to someone else in order to meet the conditions of the soul transfer ceremony.

Then the butler knight camp, which is opposite to the NPC camp, may do the exact opposite of what the NPC does.

In other words, the butler and the Ghost Rider camp are likely to be kind to the intruder?

After hearing Angel's analysis, everyone pondered for a moment, and the phantom clone said: "So, in the beginning, the butler asked the intruder to see the Ghost Rider with good intentions?"

Angel: "Possibly."

It is precisely because the butler knight had good intentions that the intruder collected the offerings in the hall, and they did not stop it, nor did they trigger the soul transfer ceremony.

This makes sense.

"Of course, it's not all good intentions, there may be deeper malice."

The NPC camp and the Butler Knight camp are not integrated. It may be that the Butler Knight camp is against them, or it may be more evil than them.

They have no way to tell which one it is now.

Unless, try it again.

Shadow clone: ​​"Let me pass the message now and let Grandma Long Ya try to choose to meet the Ghost Rider to see what changes will happen."

Angel subconsciously wanted to say, would it be too much trouble for you.

But on second thought, the shadow clone walked directly in the shadows, and it would only take a few seconds to go from here to the place of blood disaster.

For her, it was just a blink of an eye; thinking of this, Angel no longer dissuaded.

The shadow clone turned around and disappeared without any hesitation.

About two minutes later, the shadow clone returned to the tea table again: "I have told Grandma Long Ya that according to Grandma Long Ya, she has actually started to let that human try to contact the Ghost Rider recently."

The lucky and unfortunate human in the southern region has been wandering in the castle these days. He didn't go to get anything, but was... eavesdropping.

For example, the NPC dialogue of "Butler...rebellion..." that Hilda heard before.

These conversations were previously considered by Siluda as "clues to solve the case."

It wasn't until she entered the mirror game that she discovered that these conversations were actually NPC conversations or murmurs.

Although NPCs must play their roles well and cannot do behaviors that are inconsistent with the character's personality; but mumbling to themselves or communicating with companions are in line with the character's personality, so they are reasonable.

Some of these NPC conversations or murmurs may be unimportant, but some may very well tell some secrets about the castle.

Piecing together these secret clues may reveal the true nature of the castle.

This is also the reason why Granny Longcrow asked the human to listen to the corner.

Phantom clone: ​​"According to the statistics collected by that human, he found that almost most of the people in the castle wanted to assassinate the butler."

"The reason seems to be that the butler is preventing them from doing something."

"Now it seems that Angel's guess is correct. The housekeeper is probably trying to stop them from inducing the intruder to use the owned object in order to activate the spiritual transformation ritual."

The phantom clone paused and continued: "Grandma Longcrow also vaguely feels this way. When I mentioned it just now, she immediately decided to try to contact the housekeeper and the Ghost Rider."

"However, I guess we won't be able to get the results immediately."

After all, Granny Longcrow is at Blood Disaster at this time. Siluda and the human from the Southern Region stayed at the research base.

It's not that Granny Longcrow didn't take them with her, but if they came together, they would probably be suppressed by the blood disaster's talent immediately...

Grandma Longcrow's bloodline level is very high, so she doesn't have to worry about the talent of blood disaster. Siluda and the human from the Southern Territory are different.

Phantom clone: ​​"Also, aren't you interested in the creator of the Mirror Game? I told Granny Longcrow about the situation, and she said she would help find it. When she has information, she will notify me through the Blood Disaster Ritual."

As long as the "player" enters the mirror game and does not touch the owner's objects or take those ritual sacrifices, there will be no problem for the time being.

On the premise of not triggering the spiritual transformation ritual, Granny Longcrow will try her best to let the human being find information about the creator in the mirror game.

Angel nodded. It would be better if Grandma Longcrow could find out the information.

…

While waiting for the divination results, Angel also made a solo trip to Yinsen Space.

Because Laplace told him that the prophet Jota had arrived.

Angel couldn't let Jota wait for him, so he took a step back and left the Yinsen space to meet with the prophet Jota.

After meeting Jotta, Jotta handed a translucent oval crystal to Angel.

Angel scanned it with his mental power and found that it was a crystal shell of space storage type.

The space is not too big, about the same size as the space of his bracelet. It is filled with all kinds of holy corpse crystals, about 10,000 pieces.

According to Jota, the crystallization of the holy corpse this time came from the "Military Cemetery" and the "Civil Cemetery".

Eighty percent of them are soldiers of the Jingmu tribe, and the other 20% are from civilians with mixed identities.

However, what is certain is that most of these holy corpse crystals from private cemeteries are people with status and status.

After all, the crystals of the holy corpses of the vast majority of lower-class civilians will not enter the cemetery. Instead, they will be deposited on the walls of the Crystal City and become building materials.

Of course, this is not absolute.

There are also many ambitious members of the Crystal Eyes clan who will choose to become the foundation of Crystal City, and will continue to protect their beloved clan even if they die.

After putting away the 10,000 holy corpse crystals, Angel exchanged a few words with Jotta, then said goodbye and returned to the Yinsen space.

When he sat down at the tea table again, news came from Gleipnir.

"The divination has ended, and Gleipnir has obtained the information." It was Luigi who spoke. His expression was strange, and he seemed to be very surprised by the divination result.

Not only Luigi, Angel also noticed that the phantom clone was sipping tea, his hands also stopped in mid-air, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Laplace, on the other hand, still maintained his usual indifference.

"Is the result surprising?" Angel asked curiously.

Luigi nodded deeply: "It's not an accident, but... a very unexpected one. Because the makeup and hair artist Edward who occupies Siluda's body is..."

Luigi didn't say the place, he just stretched out his finger and pointed towards his feet.

Angel was stunned and exclaimed: "You mean, he is in...Crystal City?!"

Luigi nodded meaningfully: "Yes, he is in Crystal City at this time."

Perhaps because he didn't know how to use the power of the Crystal Eyes, he didn't have any cover along the way. Gleipnir even divined his recent movements.

As he spoke, Luigi waved his hand gently, and the illusion of the void appeared out of thin air.

His ability to create illusions is not strong, but the illusion in front of him does not require much detail. It is just a dark void and two glowing points.

One of the white spots emitting blazing light is like a crystal. There is no doubt that it refers to the Crystal City where the Jingmu Clan is located.

Another luminous spot, not far from Crystal City, is nearby.

This light spot did not have any markings, but Luigi, the shadow clone, and Laplace all focused on this light spot.

Luigi pointed at the light spot: "The first place Edward went to was not Crystal City, but here first."

When Luigi said this, he looked at Angel with a smile: "Do you know where this is?"

Angel looked at the position of the light spot in the void, and recalled the process of coming here. He quickly constructed a void coordinate system in his mind, and then he spoke without hesitation...

"I don't know."

After all, Angel had not been in the White Day Mirror Domain for a long time. He didn't know much about the situation here, and on the way to Crystal City, he walked through the corridor in the mirror.

In the corridor, he only saw part of the scene in the void, and the deeper places could not be observed.

So, even if he constructed a void coordinate system in the thinking space, it would be completely useless.

Luigi blinked: "You can guess."

Hearing Luigi's words, Angel frowned slightly. Since Luigi asked him to guess, it means that he must know this place.

Have you seen it? Or have you been there?

"Pippi Castle? Or...Hot Gold City?"

These are the only two places Angel has been to. However, these two mirror spaces are both on the Immortal Mirror Sea. Edward has just occupied Hilda's body and has no physical memory. He should not be able to avoid the erosion of the Immortal Mirror Sea.

Luigi shook his head and continued to keep the secret: "It's not these two places. However, I can reveal some information to you. You haven't been there. But you must know where it is."

Angel: "???" I haven't been there, so I know where it is?

When Angel was wondering, Laplace next to him said, "Don't guess, there is just an ordinary void, there is no mirror space... But the parrot left from there."

"Where the parrot left..." Angel whispered, "You mean, where is the passage opened by the parrot using the Condensation Mirror?"

Laplace nodded and said lightly, "If nothing unexpected happens, this Edward should have some ability to sense the weak points of space and find space passages."

The reason he was able to come to the Daytime Mirror Domain from the Dark Mirror Domain was because he found a space overlap point and found the passage to the Daytime Mirror Domain.

And now, he went to the place where the parrot left with a strong goal, and it was obvious that he sensed that there was a passage to the outside world there.

Otherwise, he could not have stayed in a void without anything for so long.

It's just a pity that the parrot left using the Condensation Mirror, and Laplace has absolute control over the mirror passage opened by the Condensation Mirror. Without her permission, outsiders can't enter at all.
