Chapter 167: The Gathering
The database of the Black Devourer is not a written record, but a repository of information composed of some kind of ritual, which can be accessed through the permission of the crystal card.
After Meng Xuan clicked on the "Encyclopedia of the Void World", a more complex catalog suddenly appeared in his mind.
There is a difference between the knowledge and wisdom that imparts to the ritual, which is not directly instilled into his mind, but more like browsing a "virtual web page", which needs to be understood and memorized by himself.
"Imaginary Geography Common ......"
"Illustrated ...... of Imaginary Creatures"
"The distribution of forces in the Void ......"
"Illusory Magical Items ......"
"The ...... of the Void History"
Meng Xuan saw some of the options in the catalog, and felt a headache about these hundreds of pages of knowledge.
These encyclopedic compilations were originally the introductory knowledge that the junior apprentices of the Black Devourer should learn, and they usually had two years or more to learn about this huge world, but when it came to Meng Xuan, he had to concentrate on learning this knowledge in a short period of time.
The first thing he chose was historical common sense, and now what he wanted to know most was what really happened to the Void and the former Nelson Empire, and what was going on with the warping power.
He clicked on the Void History Knowledge option and began to read a long paragraph.
As a result, the knowledge gained was not very satisfying to him.
Perhaps because this is only a basic textbook, the recorded knowledge is not important enough.
For example, the origin of the Void that he longed to know.
For example, what exactly is the power of distortion, and why does the pollution of distortion come?
Another example is whether the Void Humans are Nelson's remnants.
All of this important information has been brushed aside.
It is written at the beginning of the book
The former void is beautiful and magical, she is the higher world, she is the convergence of all miracles, she is the source of all myths, she is the embodiment of all dreams, she hides endless mysteries, contains infinite power, through her, you can get in touch with the higher truth, she is the paradise that all intelligent beings yearn for.
But one day, the distortion appeared in this land, fear and chaos overwhelmed everything, and the people of this land, for their mother, began a long war against the distortion, and countless ancestors came forward one after another, swaying their blood, in order to protect this pure land......
Mother? These people call the Void "Mother"? So, they should be the natives of the Void? Not a remnant of Nelson's relocation from the real world?
Meng Xuan was puzzled by the few words mentioned.
"The convergence of all miracles? The source of all myths? What are all your dreams coming true? ”
There were also some words in the description of the Void Realm that made Meng Xuan more interested.
This description reminded him of something.
The shadow town that is inextricably linked to the real-world shadow people.
Is it the embodiment of some kind of dream or vision?
In addition to these two points that made him more interested, the rest of the content, he felt that it was written a bunch of nonsense, and there was no useful information, and at a glance he knew that it was used to deceive elementary school students.
He continued to look down and found some useful information.
The virtual world and the real world.
Legend has it that many years ago, the Void was able to communicate with another huge world, and in order to distinguish it from its own world, that world was called the Real World.
There is some close connection between the virtual world and the real world, and they have very different characteristics, but in terms of connection, they are like two sides of the same coin.
Through a special ceremony, it is possible to achieve a shuttle between the two worlds.
Unfortunately, not long after the distortion came, for unknown reasons, the passage between the two worlds was completely closed, and the connection between the two worlds was completely severed, and no one could shuttle between the two worlds and connect to another world.
Reality? Does it represent the real world?
Sure enough, as I expected, people in the void world can't enter the real world, that is, they can't come to the real world?
And people in the real world can't enter the virtual world?
Seems to be an exception yourself?
Also, what do you mean by the two sides of the same body?
The connection between the virtual world and the real world does not seem to be so simple.
This information made Meng Xuan frown.
He remembered the incomparably powerful purifying power he had encountered in the dark passage when he had enveloped the Shadow Man in the sea of minds and traveled between the two realms.
Perhaps, the passage between the two realms is not completely closed, but there is an extremely terrifying barrier, which is difficult for even the strongest to overcome, and he seems to be able to bypass this barrier to a certain extent......
Meng Xuan guessed and continued to look down, but the encyclopedia compilation didn't seem to be very interested in introducing these secret knowledge, so he simply brought it over.
Most of the content in the rest is from the perspective of the Twisted Conqueror, introducing the rise of the Twisted Path, praising the courage of the ancestors to explore and the heavy price paid to fight against the Twist, and by the way, the Serio Federation and the Seventy-Two Palaces that drove the conqueror into the shadows......
Even Meng Xuan, who had been educated in ideology and morality in his previous life, had to admit that this textbook would have a very good effect on the brainwashing of the new generation, and in the book, the Twisted Conqueror's camp was completely the image of a lonely and loyal hero who was finally abandoned by an ignorant master.
He just paid attention to the details of the Fallen's rebellion at the time, and didn't look any further.
After reading the history column, Meng Xuan didn't have much hope of getting the secret knowledge from these ordinary knowledge, and it seemed that he had to find an opportunity to go to the Dorogu set of information.
"Meng Xuan! Meng Xuan! Not in the house! ”
Just as he was about to continue browsing for other knowledge, a familiar voice sounded outside the courtyard.
Eichoch?
Meng Xuan frowned, his mental power withdrew from the database, put away the crystal card, pushed open the door of the house, and sure enough, he saw the handsome face of Eshiocchi with dirty braids appearing behind the courtyard gate.
"You really are, it's been a few days, you're stuffy in the house every day, and you don't come out to recognize the students, it's easy for you to have no friends! And being alone for a long time will also increase the risk of alienation, so you have to come out and communicate more!! ”
Eshiocchi waved loudly to Meng Xuan.
"Forehead······ I've been so busy learning new things lately that I haven't paid much attention to that. ”
Meng Xuan was stunned for a moment and said, opening the courtyard door to let Eshiocchi in.
"Learning new knowledge also requires communication! It just so happens that I have a good relationship with a few friends today to have an exchange party, everyone also wants to know you, you can also ask us if you don't understand, how about communicating with each other, are you interested? ”
Eshioch said to Meng Xuan.
"Exchange Gathering ······"
Meng Xuan's expression moved, he had studied hard in the past few days, he did have a lot of things that he didn't understand, and now that Tutor Dorogu went out to prepare materials, he didn't have anyone to ask, maybe he could get some answers by participating in the exchange meeting, after all, Eshioche and the others were all veterans of the transcendental.
Moreover, knowing more friends will have a lot of benefits for him to obtain other materials for future missions.
You know, he took a cursory look at the mission options in the crystal card, and many tasks are not something that can be completed alone.
"I'm interested, is the meeting starting now?"
Meng Xuan asked.
"I'll start soon, I'll wait for you, but why don't you add my 'Hessian name'? Otherwise, I'll notify you directly with the Hessian Crystal Card. ”
Eshioch said dissatisfied.
"Hesse?"
Meng Xuan's mind was full of question marks.
"Oh, you still don't know how to use it? Everyone who has a Hessian Crystal Card has a 'Hessian name' in the communication room, and you will know when you enter the communication room. ”
Eshiocchi was stunned for a moment and said to Meng Xuan.
With that, Eshiocchi led Meng Xuan out of the courtyard and walked along the street towards the other side of the Agunoli Giant Tree.
On the way, Meng Xuan took the time to connect his spiritual power to the crystal card and took a look at the communication room options.
As a result, he found that this thing composed of rituals is similar to a large communication forum, which can not only chat remotely, but also post discussion entries similar to "posts", and even have a voice function between friends and friends, but the scope of communication seems to be limited to the Black Forest, according to the function of the communication room, out of the Black Forest, it will be "disconnected".
It looks like a black technology, but what can be done in the real world, even if the environment is a little worse, there is no reason why the virtual world can't do it······
Meng Xuan sighed, it seemed that he still knew too little about the functions of the crystal card.
Then, he noticed that the options in his friends bar seemed to be jumping, and after clicking on it, a box popped up, and a portrait of Eshiocchi grinning like a silly fork appeared in his mind.
There's also an avatar feature······
Meng Xuan was expressionless and clicked on the confirmation option with his mental power.
After walking for about ten minutes, Eshiocchi led him to another large-looking wooden house, pushed open the courtyard door and walked in.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Meng Xuan felt a strong "artistic" atmosphere from the carefully decorated courtyard.
Because there are too many decorations, Meng Xuan can't see the reason at a glance, it is probably a feeling of "although I don't understand it, I just think it's awesome".
Squeak~~
There was a strange noise, and two chubby evil puppets with white wings on their backs flew in front of Eshiocchi and Meng Xuan.
"Welcome to ······"
The two little ones said in soft voices at the same time, and then with a wave of their hands, an illusion appeared in the void, and golden light fell with patches of white light feathers.
“~~”
Walking along the path full of various ornaments and flowers, all the decorations along the way came to life, and they saluted politely to the two.
It's so compelling······
This scene reminded Meng Xuan of the manor full of animated sculptures he encountered when he first entered the ruins of the evil puppet.
"This is Sirnoah's residence, he's the strongest of us, and he should be about to break through, huh······· This guy is one of Master Panall's favorite students over the years, so, you know. ”
Eshiocchi seemed to see Meng Xuan's speechlessness, and shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said.
Sure enough, it's playing with art······
Walking through the path, Ashiocchi and Meng Xuan entered a warmly decorated garden, where three black-robed men sat at a round table, quietly looking at the puppet drama staged by several miniature evil puppets in a small cabinet not far away.
Seeing Eshiocchi and Meng Xuan coming, the three of them turned around one after another.
