Section 3506 Blurred Image

However, it is precisely because Ghost Rider is too friendly to Bubble.

Bubble's perspective on Ghost Rider is filtered and not objective.

In Bubble's eyes, Ghost Rider is a good and gentle person; but in the eyes of others, it may be another answer.

"What about you?" Gleipnir looked at Edward: "You have been talking about Bubble's perspective. I want to know your perspective. What kind of person is Ghost Rider?"

This time, Edward was silent for a long time before he said: "I have not seen Ghost Rider much, so it is difficult for me to evaluate him. If you force me to say it, I think Ghost Rider gives me a feeling of... blurry."

"Blurry?" Gleipnir did not expect Edward to give such a strange answer: "Why is it blurry? Where is it blurry?"

Edward shrugged: "I don't know. I just feel that Ghost Rider is not very real in my eyes, as if there is a layer of gauze between them, blurry and not very clear."

As for why he had this idea, Edward thought about it carefully and felt that the most likely reason was that he had seen Ghost Rider too few times.

Over the past hundreds of years, Edward had only seen it from a distance a few times.

The only close contact was the day when he was brought to the castle by Bubble. Ghost Rider registered his role and asked him a few questions at close range.

But even that close contact was very vague in Edward's eyes.

He had never seen the true face of Ghost Rider.

Ghost Rider had always been wearing the outer shell of the knight's armor and the helmet was tightly worn. His voice came out of the helmet, with a kind of muffled echo.

Not quite real.

It was like the sound quality of a phonograph, full of ancient and cold inorganic sounds.

Anyway, in Edward's own memories, he would always secretly guess: Is there really a soul under that seemingly exquisite knight's armor?

The so-called Ghost Rider, could it be just a phonograph?

Or, just a puppet being manipulated by strings.

In fact, Ghost Rider does not exist at all, and everything is just their fantasy? Or, Ghost Rider is actually the mastermind behind a secret place?

"However, this is probably just because I haven't had much contact with Ghost Rider, so I feel a sense of isolation." Edward: "And Bubble has been in contact with Ghost Rider for many years. I think even if Bubble has a filter for Ghost Rider, his answer may be more like the perspective of a normal person."

"That's why I chose to talk about Bubble's perspective first."

Gleipnir nodded gently, she probably... understood.

The reason why Edward felt that Ghost Rider was vague was because he had never seen "it" with his own eyes. The so-called knight armor seemed fake to him.

If he could see the essence of Ghost Rider, even if it was just a vain soul, he might not feel that Ghost Rider was vague.

To put it bluntly, this is probably Edward's...rigorousness as a wizard?

Gleipnir thought for a moment and continued, "What about the others? Besides you and Bubble, how do the others view Ghost Rider?"

"Others..." Edward muttered in a low voice, "I don't know much about that. After all, we are all in our own roles. Except for talking to ourselves, we can criticize the master. At other times, we must follow the logic of the role's behavior."

So, with Edward's identity and the identities of other characters, it is impossible for them to get together and talk about the Lord of the Secret Land in public. This is impolite and does not fit the character's personality.

"Although we haven't talked about Ghost Rider, I can probably guess from their eyes that they are very afraid of and hate Ghost Rider."

Edward can understand the hatred of Ghost Rider. Because Ghost Rider doesn't seem to like the "Soul Transformation Ceremony" and even destroys the "Soul Transformation Ceremony" that others have finally got, which also leads to their hatred of Ghost Rider.

But... Edward doesn't quite understand the emotion of fear.

"Anyway, I'm not too afraid of Ghost Rider." Edward said at this time, and made a small guess: "Maybe it's because I'm close to Bubble, Ghost Rider doesn't care about me? He hasn't done anything bad to me."

To sum it up, it's still the same sentence. It's hard to have other emotions because you don't see it often.

After listening to Edward's story, Gleipnir felt that he had just listened to a lot of nonsense. Originally, I thought that from Edward's story, I would establish an image of Ghost Rider to facilitate future contact.

But after listening, the image of Ghost Rider became more vague and mysterious.

Gleipnir couldn't complain in front of Edward, but just sighed a few words in the mind band.

Luigi expressed sympathy for her.

Laplace was as cold as before and didn't speak.

Butler Fan echoed a sentence, but didn't express too much.

Only Angel said after thinking for a moment: "I think Edward gave a very important clue."

Gleipnir said "Huh" and looked at Angel.

Angel: "Although Edward has always emphasized that he needs to play his role in the Knight's Castle and behave in accordance with his character. But after putting aside this vain appearance, looking deeper, Edward actually wants to live in the castle."

"The so-called life, then you can't escape from contact with all aspects."

Angel himself is a young nobleman, so if he were to take on the role, he would naturally take on the role of the owner of the castle.

As the owner of the castle, even if he is in a high position, he needs to contact people in all aspects of life.

Otherwise, why do you have so many servants?

Of course, it is because there are many things that the master is not convenient to do and needs servants to take over.

From Edward's perspective, he has been in the castle for hundreds of years, but he has only seen the master up close once, and the other times he has seen him from a distance, no more than ten fingers.

This is really too little.

The Ghost Rider in the castle does not seem to have a normal life.

Angel: "A character who does not have a normal life, he appears in the castle, obviously not right."

Gleipnir pondered for a moment: "The Ghost Rider does appear too little, which is not right. But this is not an important clue, right?"

Angel did not answer but asked: "What do you think is the reason for the Ghost Rider's rare appearance?"

Gleipnir thought about it and had some guesses in his mind.

Angel didn't wait for Gleipnir to answer, and answered himself: "From my perspective, Ghost Rider rarely appears, perhaps because... he is not actually in the castle."

Hearing this answer, the people in the mind band were slightly moved, and they all had their own thoughts.

Angel: "We can regard the Knight Castle as a fairyland copy, and the castle owner Ghost Rider is a character played by a player."

"The reason why he often doesn't show up is because the player who controls Ghost Rider is not online."

Angel's metaphor is very bold, and there is not much evidence to support it. But inexplicably, Gleipnir thinks it makes sense.

Using the metaphor of Dream Crystal Origin, Ghost Rider is often not online. Therefore, Edward rarely sees him for decades.

Gleipnir: "According to what you said, if he is really offline all year round, why does he respond every time Bubble goes to find him?"

Angel: "Being offline does not mean that he does not know someone is looking for him. Perhaps he has set up a background trigger device for his character. As long as someone enters his room, or someone enters the "reaction" range of the Ghost Rider character, he will be reminded."

Just like when a wizard is doing research, although he is focused on research, in order to avoid missing some important events, he will still make some early warning arrangements outside the laboratory. When there is an important event, outsiders can contact the wizard who is doing the experiment by triggering these advance arrangements.

Similarly, the Ghost Rider may have made an arrangement for his character. As long as someone triggers it, he will sense it and respond online in time.

Gleipnir: "That is to say, you think that the Ghost Rider is actually controlled by someone. And this person may not be in the Knight Castle."

Angel nodded: "Yes, the Ghost Rider's body may be roaming in the ritual world, or..."

"...Not in the ritual world at all, but using a mirror window to control the Ghost Rider outside the ritual world."

Angel's two guesses made Gleipnir feel the same as before: although a little outrageous, but inexplicably reasonable.

In this way, the clues given by Edward seem to be really important. After analyzing, the analysis went beyond the ritual world...

However, Gleipnir is not a person who dances with emotion, and soon regained his sanity.

Although Angel's guess makes some sense, it is not supported by evidence after all, and it is more of a speculation and imagination.

Even if it is true, it will not be of much help to Gleipnir's subsequent contact with the Ghost Rider.

"I'd better think about it myself." Gleipnir said in the mind band: "By the way, do you have anything to ask Edward? If not, we should discuss his subsequent placement."

Luigi said no.

Laplace and Butler Fan didn't say anything.

Angel thought for a while and said in the mind band: "I'm still a little curious about the Knight Castle. Let me ask him a few questions."

After a pause, Angel raised his head and looked at Edward across from him.

"What do you think of the Knight Castle?"

Edward was stunned: "Ah?"

Angel: "In your eyes, what is the Knight Castle like? Do you have any doubts and... guesses about your need to role-play in the Knight Castle?"

Angel was actually very curious about why the Knight Castle needed to role-play. Is there some unknown underlying logic in this, or is it simply a bad taste of the creator?

Because Angel is a spectator watching the fire from the other side of the river, his evaluation is objective, but not true enough. He really wanted to know how Edward, who was once a player in the game, viewed this drama that lasted for hundreds of years?

Facing Angel's question, Edward's reaction this time was much slower, perhaps he was thinking, or preparing his words.

After waiting for almost five minutes, Edward frowned and said slowly: "Let me first talk about my opinion on the Knight's Castle."

"The Knight's Castle seems strange to me. Although it looks like a normal space, there are always some things here that are inexplicably more."

Angel: "Something more?"

Edward nodded: "It's the sacrifices used in the ceremony. They just appeared out of thin air, without any signs, and appeared directly in the Knight Castle or the surrounding forest."

Sacrifices appeared out of thin air?

Everyone's expression showed confusion. Before, they were all concerned about the people in the Knight Castle and didn't think about the issue of sacrifices. But think about it carefully, isn't the reason why Hilda was trapped in the Knight Castle because of the sacrifices?

Sacrifices, perhaps, are a bright line of the Knight Castle.

"Did they really appear out of thin air?" It was Gleipnir who spoke. She was still thinking about the Ghost Rider, but Edward's answer made her too curious, and she couldn't help but interrupt.

Edward: "Yes, they appeared out of thin air. And these offerings seem to recognize people. In different people's hands, they will present different forms."

Gleipnir: "???"

Edward looked at Angel: "Mr. Angel asked me what I think about role-playing? My opinion is that role-playing may be related to these strange offerings."

"Because, the more our role-playing is in line with our character, the more offerings will appear around us. Moreover, the style of the offerings is closely related to our character."

"For example, because I often make up and dress up Bubble, I also study various wigs and dyes in private, which are in line with my role as a makeup artist. Therefore, in my room, at least ten offerings were born, including combs, mirrors, hair, scissors... and so on."

Not only Edward, but also Bubble.

Bubble's role as a young lady is also very successful. After all, as a young lady, doing anything is normal and can be considered as acting. Therefore, Bubble's sitting, lying, and walking are all considered acting.

Therefore, Bubble has more sacrifices. In its room, there are at least 30 sacrifices.

Edward even witnessed the birth of Bubble's sacrifices.

When he was styling Bubble, a bright red hairpin suddenly appeared on Bubble's wig...

This hairpin is a kind of sacrifice.

However, Bubble doesn't pay much attention to sacrifices, because the sacrifices are different in everyone's hands, and the style of the sacrifices is related to the character's personality.

Bubble's personality highlights a "young lady", and therefore many sacrifices appear in women's products.

This is a great shame for Bubble, who always talks about "maleness".

Therefore, Bubble simply locked all the sacrifices in the cabinet, out of sight, out of mind.
