Chapter 3853 Overlapping Point
Chapter 3852 Overlapping Points
Of course, all this is just Gleipnir's guess.
However, she is still certain. When she had a "paid chat" with Yusup before, she had asked about Paipai's information indirectly.
Yusup had many sighs about Paipai, which can be summed up in one sentence: her talent is no less than that of the old president.
When facing Gleipnir's question: "Is Paipai's disappearance because she doesn't want to come back?"
Yusup gave a very firm negative answer.
In Yusup's description, Paipai is a very responsible person. She took on Prada Media at a young age and was very motivated and energetic.
Yusup is now supporting Prada Media even by "selling meat shows", which is actually influenced by Paipai.
From these intelligence, it can be seen that with Paipai's personality, she will never watch Prada Media go bankrupt.
And she must have thought that the probability of decline of Prada Media without her own is almost 100%.
Therefore, in Gleipnir's opinion, the bet she made with Abigail, the clown of the night carnival, was at least 80% likely to let Abigail temporarily become the face of Prada Media and save the company from collapse.
If combined with the advancement of the main task, this possibility can be reached 100%.
After all, the main task is to revive the Prada beauty show, and the key to the revival of the beauty show is the "Carnival Night Clown".
Combining the two, it is not difficult to guess the reason.
…
"Now it's your turn to answer me. Why do you want to arrange the ritual to summon me? How do you know that the lightless space is in the nearby void?" Abigail looked at Gleipnir impatiently.
These two questions involve the information of the fairyland... Gleipnir certainly cannot answer truthfully.
Even if she wants to learn from Angel, disguise the information of the fairyland as the so-called "great existence" and then fool Abigail. This is actually quite troublesome, and there will be more questions that need to be explained later.
If it is not necessary, she does not want to make it so complicated.
Moreover, the more complicated it is, the more likely it is that there will be problems that cannot be solved.
In addition, Abigail's emotions are not as stable as Zuniga's, so it is even more impossible for her to tell the truth.
Thinking of this, Gleipnir's mind changed, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "These are two questions. Which one do you want me to answer first?"
Abigail narrowed her eyes in dissatisfaction, "Why can't you show your generosity first?"
Gleipnir said calmly, "The same thing, I also want to say to you... Why can't you show your generosity first?"
Abigail was choked by the rebuke, her lips trembled for a moment, and then she said bitterly, "Then come one by one."
"Okay."
Gleipnir paused and said softly, "Why do we need to arrange a ceremony to summon you? Because we need you."
Abigail: "???"
"That's it? Why do you need me? You didn't say it?"
Gleipnir: "Why do you need you? This is another question. Just like before, I asked you what you would do after finding someone, and you didn't answer me."
Abigail: "..."
Its eyes have now completely turned into dead fish eyes, dull and drooping.
It regretted communicating with Gleipnir, and felt that she was even more vulnerable than itself.
"If you continue to communicate like this, splitting a question that can be answered in one sentence into countless small questions. Then I think there is no need for us to continue communicating." Abigail stared at Gleipnir.
"You split it first." Gleipnir counterattacked.
Abigail shook her head: "It's different. What I want to do after finding someone is the purpose of my coming to the world, and I can't reveal it to you completely."
"After all, you may become an obstacle to my goal. So, I can only express it as obscurely and as little as possible."
"If you want me to answer completely, what is the purpose of my coming to the world."
"Then you have to tell me first, what is the purpose of your setting up this ritual and summoning me? If our goals don't conflict, I don't mind answering you."
"But if they conflict, then if I answer you in advance, won't it become a weapon to stop me in the future?"
Gleipnir's eyes did not change, but his heart was actually shaken.
It must be said that Abigail's words did convince her. In particular, she had some guesses about Abigail's "purpose"...
If Paipai really asked Abigail to help Prada Media, she must have told Abigail in advance about the threats Prada Media is currently facing.
Whether it is the Fashion Guild in public or the Dark Round Table in secret, they are actually threats.
It can even be said that they are hostile forces to Prada Media.
From Abigail's perspective, she knows nothing about Gleipnir. If Gleipnir happens to be a member of the Fashion Guild or the Dark Round Table, then wouldn't it be a kind of aid to the enemy if she speaks out her purpose?
Therefore, Gleipnir actually understood and slightly agreed with Abigail's words and previous answers.
Gleipnir hesitated a little, how about she "suffer a little loss" first?
Just when she hesitated, Abigail suddenly said: "Well, I will answer your two questions that have nothing to do with my goal first. Then you tell me your purpose."
"If I judge that it does not conflict with my purpose, then I will tell you my purpose."
In Abigail's opinion, this is actually a concession.
Gleipnir thought about it and finally nodded: "Okay."
Abigail: "Then ask two questions that have nothing to do with my goal."
Gleipnir thought about it and said: "The first question is the question you just mentioned, why did the lightless space become a cellar?"
Abigail: "Because this is the anchor point."
Anchor point? Gleipnir was a little puzzled.
Perhaps to show her "sincerity", Abigail's explanation this time was relatively comprehensive, and even revealed some additional secrets.
According to him, the lightless space originally belonged to the dark corner. If the dark corner wants to connect with the real world, it must have an "overlap point".
And this "overlap point" is the so-called "anchor point".
The dark corner needs to use this "anchor point" to deceive the original world, so generally speaking, the anchor point will simulate the environment of the real world, or even directly overlap with the real world environment.
Therefore, after the lightless space is connected with the real world, it will automatically form an anchor point to simulate the external environment.
Only in this way can the lightless space stay stably in the real world.
In other words, the lightless space turned into a cellar not because of Abigail's trick behind the scenes, but because of the inevitable rule of the intersection and overlap of the dark corners and the real world.
After listening to Abigail's answer, Gleipnir felt like a sudden harvest.
Its previous answers were always squeezing toothpaste; but this time, it was like moving boxes and pouring out, with a large amount of information, and a lot of information was unique.
Like the "anchor point", "overlap point" and "rule" it mentioned, this is important information that even Angel has not found yet.
In a trance, Gleipnir really had the illusion of a long drought and a good rain.
"The lightless space turned into a cellar, it was not you who did it. Then, my "dream" turned into a cellar, it was your handiwork, right?" Gleipnir asked curiously.
Abigail: "Is this your second question?"
Gleipnir thought for a moment: "Forget it, but you still need to tell me how I can leave this dream."
At present, Gleipnir clearly knows that this is a "dream", but she has not found a way to leave.
Even when Abigail and Angel controlled her body before and after, her consciousness was still immersed in this "dream game", and she knew nothing about the outside world.
So, how to leave this dream is indeed what she urgently wants to know.
Abigail: "It is indeed me who made your dream become a cellar, but I am not the one who arranged the dreaming technique. It is just to make you relax your vigilance and let down your guard, so that I can control your body to modify the ritual more smoothly."
"Is there someone else who arranged the dreaming technique?" Gleipnir asked in surprise.
Abigail nodded: "I will give you this question. The one who arranged the "dream game" in the dark is the one who made a bet with me at the beginning."
The person who made the bet? That is Paipai? ! Gleipnir immediately understood in his heart.
Abigail continued, "She asked me to come to the world, and she must have arranged some follow-up measures for me. Anyone who steps into the lightless space will fall into the trap she set and fall into the dream game."
"I had nothing to do during the days in the lightless space, so I studied the dream game she set up. Although I didn't understand the principle, I could affect the dream of the dream game to a certain extent."
This is why Gleipnir's dream game showed a cellar, because Abigail affected the expression of the dream.
Gleipnir heard this and roughly understood Paipai's intention.
Paipai was also worried that Abigail might encounter some troubles when she came to the world, such as the crusade of "magicians" and the invasion of "hostile organizations"... So, she arranged this dream game in advance to buy time for Abigail.
From this, it can also be seen that Paipai attaches great importance to Abigail.
Then Paipai's intention can be basically determined.
"As for how you want to leave this dream, there are two ways: first, when the time comes, you will naturally wake up; second, when your body returns from the lightless space to the outer cellar, you will also wake up."
According to Abigail, this "dream game" will make people sleep for a day and a night.
In other words, at least 24 hours.
And after 24 hours, it happens to be the time when the sealing ritual of the lightless space is automatically released, which is obviously also specially considered by Paipai.
As for the second method, let the body return to the outer cellar from the lightless space, Abigail has her own explanation for this: "I originally thought that I would control your body to modify the ritual, and then I would take you out of the lightless space, and then you would wake up."
"But who knew... there was actually another consciousness in your body that took away my control."
Gleipnir automatically ignored the second half of the sentence.
In the first half of the sentence, Abigail said that it would control Gleipnir to leave the lightless space. Gleipnir had no way of judging whether this was true or false.
However, now that Angel can control his body, he can confirm whether he can wake up by leaving the dark room.
From this point of view, what Abigail said should be true.
Abigail: "Okay, I have answered the two questions you asked, and I have one more question in return. To show my sincerity, I can tell you one more piece of news now."
"Do you think you are trapped in the 'Dream Bureau'?" Abigail shook her head: "No, this is actually a kind of protection for you."
Gleipnir: "Protection?"
Abigail nodded: "Yes, I said before that the lightless space will become like a cellar because it becomes an anchor point."
"And the anchor point is not formed immediately, it has a stable process."
"This process lasts about a day and a night."
"During this day and night, if someone breaks into the lightless space, the consciousness will be marked by the unstable dark corner. Pulling your consciousness into the dream bureau is actually protecting your consciousness from being marked."
Gleipnir: "What will happen after being marked?"
Abigail: "People who are marked will be more likely to be locked by the dark corner. In other words, you may be wandering around in the real world a second ago, and when you turn around, you will be swallowed by the dark corner and fall from the real world into the dark corner..."
"For me, this will not be a big deal. But for you humans, going to the dark corner is basically a dead end."
I have to say, this news... is very heavy.
Gleipnir had heard from Angel before that he had been looking for the entrance to the Dark Corner dungeon, but there was no clue.
And now, the clue is here!
Although it is not explicitly stated that people with the Dark Corner mark will inevitably fall into the Dark Corner, at least the probability is many times higher than that of ordinary people.
For people like Angel and Zuniga who are chasing the Dark Corner, this is definitely not a negative effect, but a great benefit.
Thinking of this, Gleipnir looked at Abigail a lot more friendly.
Judging from the various information it revealed, Abigail was indeed "generous" this time.
"According to the agreement, it's your turn now." Abigail: "If you want to know the purpose of my coming to the world, at least tell me your purpose first, otherwise, I won't reveal it."
Gleipnir: "Since I agreed, I will naturally abide by the agreement."
After a pause, she slowly said: "I have already said the purpose of our coming here. Because we need you."
"As for why we need you? I will slowly explain this to you."
Gleipnir: "Do you know where you are in the world now?"
Abigail shook her head.
"We are now in... Modern City."
When Gleipnir said "Modern City", Abigail's pupils shrank obviously.
Gleipnir also caught this, but she didn't point it out, but continued to talk on her own: "I don't know if you know about Modern City... In short, there are three very important competitions in Modern City, they are the "Dark Competition" held by the Dark Round Table, the "Modern Fashion Show" hosted by the Fashion Guild, and the "Prada Beauty Show" held by Prada Media. "
"These three competitions represent the highest level of Modern City and are the halls pursued by countless magicians."
"And now, the Prada Beauty Show is slowly being removed from the three major competitions. The main reason is that the former chief planner of the "Carnival Night Clown" disappeared mysteriously."
"And the "Carnival Night Clown" is the entry threshold for the three major competitions. Without the "Carnival Night Clown", the Prada Beauty Show will inevitably slowly slide out of the three major competitions."
"And my companions and I summoned you to save the Prada Beauty Show..."
