Chapter 3735 The Unknown Savior
Angel put away the magic book with satisfaction.
He turned around and looked at Com in the "日" position. He was still chanting the prayer spell with his head down and eyes closed. He had no idea that Angel had taken advantage of his luck and drawn a good card.
Because he got the ability he wanted, Angel became more and more satisfied with Com.
His previous guess was indeed correct.
Comey is a lucky and affectionate person, and Angel is very happy to invest in such a person.
"I remember that you majored in creative fashion magic?"
Kang Mu nodded. "Creative light magic. The neon projection I created ten years ago is still used on the buildings of Wanzhao Group."
Whenever the sky is overcast or night falls, the purple-red light projection outside the Wanzhao Group's building flows like water. This neon projection was created by Com.
Angel nodded in understanding: "If I come across a creative light book page in the future, I can keep it for you. Or, do you have any fashion monster abilities you want?"
Kang Mu shook his head. "I have no plans to add more pages at the moment. Besides... I have already received the Prologue: Spectrum from the gentleman. It will take me a lot of time just to integrate the current pages into the prologue."
Kang's emotions had been suppressed by the nightmare, so what he said was not polite but came from the heart.
The additional pages are definitely good for wizards who are new to the world of fashion magic.
But for magicians who already have a mature combination, adding pages is likely to disrupt the original plan. In addition, the appearance of "Prologue: Spectrum" requires him to spend time to integrate it. Com currently has no plans to add pages.
Angel didn't force it, but just nodded casually: "If you need to add pages, or want to remove pages, you can contact me through the logo in your hand."
Angel has decided to let Com be his card drawing tool in this copy.
Although he is a tool, Angel will not get everything for free.
As long as the request is reasonable, he doesn't mind helping.
Just think of it as a transaction and an investment.
Angel asked Com to leave the 14th Town first. After giving the instructions, Angel turned around and returned to the Beverly Nursing Center.
……
Before Comb left, Angel talked to him about Beverly Nursing Center.
Of course, it is not a complete disclosure, but just a brief account of the situation where "the virus may break out."
He wanted to know what choice Com, as a local resident, would make.
Kang Mu thought for a moment and said, "If I were in this situation and could save the mutant who was the source of the virus, I would definitely find a way to save her. If I can't save her, then I would find a way to seal her in a closed environment."
"At least, the out-of-control virus cannot leak out."
Com's answer was not unexpected to Ingres.
This is indeed the most appropriate approach at the moment.
However, Ingle did not adopt Comb's method, or rather, he only adopted half of it.
In order to prevent the possible occurrence of "dead town" and "no one survives", the key person here must be "Henrietta".
The best case scenario would definitely be to save Henrietta.
But...Angel had sensed Henrietta's physical condition before.
It's difficult to save.
Even if Angel used some tricks and pulled some medical supplies from the Daytime Mirror Realm through the Dream Conch, he might not be able to save Henrietta.
Because the virus in her body is carried in her genes, it is impossible to eliminate it by external means alone.
At best, it can only help her prolong her life for a period of time.
But if she lives, she will only continue to be persecuted by her father and undergo more harsh experiments. Even if Angel can help her escape, she will never be able to escape from the Modern City.
As long as she was within the confines of Modern City, she could not hide.
There was no way that Angel would go and kill the Fashion Guild just for someone he had never communicated with.
And once he did that, he wouldn't have to do the main quest at all. The causal entanglement between him and Modern City would be in a strong binding state, and he wouldn't be able to get out of it in a short period of time.
Of course, the most important reason is... this is a simulated world, not real reality.
If this were real, Angel wouldn't mind helping Henrietta extend her life. As long as she could get out of Modern City and go to other cities, she would be safe.
But in the dungeon world, Henrietta is trapped in the city of Modern.
So, after considering various factors, Ingres finally decided to give up trying to save Henrietta.
Instead, they tried to lock Henrietta in a closed environment to prevent the virus from leaking out.
This is relatively simple for Ingres.
……
Ingres walked to the basement as if no one was around.
The closer it got to the end, the fewer people there were in the basement.
Perhaps the dean decided to give Henrietta a quiet and dignified departure? Or perhaps he was worried that the virus would rebound after Henrietta's death.
So they decided to evacuate the people in the basement first, wait for Henrietta to die naturally, and for the virus to settle naturally.
No matter what the situation was, this gave Angel a convenience, and the journey was much easier than before.
Soon, Angel arrived outside the laboratory where Henrietta was.
Angel still did not choose to enter the laboratory, but began to release a large number of nightmare nodes inside through the small window on the door.
The nightmare nodes began to form a network, with Henrietta at the center, covering her tightly.
This is Ingres's method.
The way to completely block the virus's counterattack after Henrietta's death is naturally to lock Henrietta in a closed space.
Angel doesn't believe in the confined space of Modern City. Just look at this laboratory and you will know. It is said to be the highest level confined laboratory, but the virus still spread out.
The air viral load continued to increase throughout the care center.
Therefore, relying on the enclosed room built by Modern City will never be safe.
As for the enclosed space constructed with Nightmare, Ingres can be sure that nothing will leak out, whether from a microscopic, macroscopic or energy perspective.
After all, the power of the Nightmare Realm is the basic force in the Dream Crystal Origin and is supreme.
Angel used the Nightmare Node to construct an empty room.
And Henrietta was in the center of the room.
It was also after Henrietta was placed in the enclosed space that Angel vaguely felt a text message appear in the text column.
But he didn't look at the text column immediately.
Because he discovered...
Henrietta woke up.
Perhaps it was a last burst of energy, or perhaps it was due to other factors, but Henrietta woke up before her organs were about to collapse.
She opened her eyes and looked up.
Gray ceiling? Isn't the ceiling in the laboratory white? Is she dazzled? Why is there mist seeping out of the ceiling?
Is it a fog experiment?
If it were before, Henrietta would feel angry, hateful, and resentful when thinking about the experiment, but now she is only numb...
"It must be my eyes playing tricks on me." She murmured softly.
Compared to her bloated body, her voice has not changed much and still has the crispness of a girl.
What she meant by dizziness was not that she saw things wrongly, but that spots appeared on her eyes and her ability to distinguish colors was reduced.
This was not new to her.
In this laboratory, she experienced the decay of many organs: taste degeneration, loss of smell, facial numbness, heart pain, stomach atrophy, limb weakness, loss of muscle sensation...
Therefore, the visual dizziness alone is already very mild compared to the deterioration of other organs.
"My vision is starting to deteriorate, and if my hearing starts to fail, I might die," Henrietta thought to herself, even feeling a little secretly delighted.
To her, death is not scary. What really scares her is continuing to live in this malicious world.
Just as Henrietta was thinking, she suddenly heard the sound of bagpipes.
The sound of the flute was faint, as if it was coming from the wind in the distant mountains.
But, she was in the laboratory, how could there be distant mountains?
Henrietta wanted to turn her head to look at the source of the sound, but unfortunately, her neck had no strength left and she couldn't even twist it.
She could only stare at the ceiling like a wax figure.
She sighed helplessly in her heart. Since she couldn't see the source of the flute sound, she would just close her eyes and listen quietly.
The gentle sound of the flute reminded her of her mother's arms.
Unfortunately, after her mother left Modern City, she never felt warmth again.
Could it be that... the one playing the flute is my mother? My mother is back?
However, the momentary excitement was pulled back by reason.
Even if her mother came back, she wouldn't recognize her. So, it was most likely a researcher in the laboratory... Although she hated every researcher equally, in her opinion, they were all bad people; but she had to say that some of them were quite gentle to her, for example, there was a doctor named Connors, who was gentler than others every time he drew blood from her...
The bagpipe sound lasted only half a minute before it stopped.
Just when Henrietta was a little disappointed that it was "too short", suddenly a clear piano sound like flowing water came along with the previous bagpipe sound.
In the sound of the harmonious music, her depressed mood gradually calmed down.
At this time, a fruity fragrance came from the air.
She slowly opened her eyes and saw a pair of gentle eyes.
It was a middle-aged woman in a long skirt. She came to sit next to Henrietta with a plate of fruit in her hand. "Our little lazy bum, are you planning to take a nap until the moon is at its highest point in the sky today?"
Nap? Mid-moon?
No, none of this matters. The person in front of me... is my mother?
The eyebrows and eyes are very similar.
Is it really the mother?
She slowly propped herself up, wanting to take a closer look...and then, she actually stood up.
She still remembered that her muscles began to atrophy and she lost her strength half a year ago. How come she could suddenly stand up again?
She lowered her head in confusion and saw her hands, hands without any flaws.
She turned her head again. The muscle weakness she had felt before had disappeared, and she could easily turn her head and see the surrounding scene.
This is a girl's boudoir.
There are dolls and lace everywhere, pink, brown, coffee color... and all kinds of beautiful and cute teacups and teapots.
On the white window frame, there were chirping birds. Through the window, she could see the sky outside filled with red clouds... This was the sunset she had not seen for many years.
However, Henrietta did not focus on the sunset, but saw her own face through the reflection of the glass window.
That was... myself before I mutated.
She remembered that the middle-aged woman next to her was her mother who had not yet been heartbroken and had not yet left the Modern City.
So, I was dreaming? Dreaming about the past?
Although it was a dream, Henrietta still felt extremely excited. She slowly stood up and wanted to hug her mother. However, before she could do anything, her mother hugged her first.
"You have hypoglycemia. Don't move around when you wake up. Eat some fruit first."
As she spoke, the sound of music could be heard outside the window.
She turned her head and saw a musician playing the piano in the small garden outside the window. But it was no longer important. She just wanted to lean on her mother's arms and seek a little warmth in this dream...
……
Henrietta hugs her mother.
In the small garden outside the window, the musician playing the piano slowly stopped, raised his head and revealed his face.
It was...Angel.
And this world filled with red clouds is naturally an illusion created by Nightmare.
Just as the dean would give Henrietta a quiet and dignified departure, Ingres also decided to give Henrietta a farewell feast.
Use a musical illusion to start a spiritual journey, awaken the reflection in her heart, and weave an old dream for Henrietta.
This is all Ingres can do.
The music faded away, but the illusion did not disappear.
Henrietta was still hugging her mother, expressing her inner grievances...
Angel glanced at her from a distance and did not disturb her, but looked at the text column.
When he sent Henrietta into the sealed chamber, Angell sensed new information flowing in the text column. However, Henrietta suddenly woke up at that time, and Angell decided to create a sound illusion heart domain temporarily.
Therefore, I didn’t look at the information in the text column immediately.
Now, this spiritual fantasy realm opened up by music has been stabilized, and Ingres finally found some free time to check the new information in the text column.
"Congratulations, you have triggered the hidden mission "The Unknown Savior"."
"Mission Overview: Wise challenger, you have foreseen the crisis of the Fourteenth Town in advance and decided to prevent the coming of doomsday. Even if you will not receive applause from anyone and will not have the highlight moment of being a savior, you still decide to prevent such a future and become an unknown savior."
"Mission objective: Prevent the out-of-control mutant virus from leaking out before the countdown ends."
"Progress blocked: 50%. (When it reaches 100%, the task will be settled directly)"
"Countdown: 01:59:10"
"Countdown: 01:59:09"
When he saw the task clearly on the text column, Angel was stunned.
Hidden mission?!
A new type of mission appeared? And it was triggered automatically?
Oh, no.
This type of task is not new, and there are many of them in games on holographic tablets, so... has the power of Wonderland been copied again?
