Chapter 3792: How to Pass the Level
"Smoke Scholar: One of the fashion monsters in the style series, a scholar who is proficient in smoke style, good at making stage smoke and creating a foggy atmosphere, and can also add smoke effects to various works of art."
After reading the Smokescreen Scholar's introduction, Angel's expression became a little subtle.
Judging from the introduction, this Smokescreen Scholar seems a bit off...
The so-called creation of stage smoke and foggy atmosphere, doesn’t this overlap with the ability of the “fog ball”?
The Mist Ball is an entry-level fashion monster in the manufacturing series.
What is entry-level? It is the classic and basic style of each series.
For example, the "plagiarism monster" in the fusion series, the "gossip monster" in the popularity series, the "outdated monster" in the style series... and so on, are all the most basic entry-level fashion monsters.
But also because it is a classic, this entry-level fashion monster level is very common.
Basically, a puzzle piece that any fashion wizard must have in this series.
Judging from the literal description, there is basically no difference between the abilities of Smokescreen Scholar and Mist Ball; and Mist Ball is very rampant in Modern City...
"If these are the only abilities of the Smokescreen Scholar, then even if it is dismantled later, it probably won't fetch a good price..." Angel muttered silently in his heart.
Of course, Angel believed that the abilities of fashion monsters might overlap, but they would never be exactly the same.
Moreover, Smoke Scholar belongs to the style series of fashion monsters, and Mist Ball is a fashion monster from the manufacturing series. Their tracks are different, so the nature of their abilities should also be different.
Smokescreen scholars must have their own unique abilities.
But if the Smoke Scholar's unique ability cannot create a gap with the Fog Ball, it probably won't be a good sell.
"It would be great if Turing was here. I could ask him if he knows anything about the Smokescreen Scholar..." Angel sighed in his heart, "Forget it, I'll go ask someone at Tina Entertainment later."
……
When Angel reached the end of the alley, he quickly locked onto the manhole cover.
However, when Angel came to the manhole cover, he heard bursts of conversation coming from below.
Angel's hand, which was about to open the manhole cover, stopped.
He looked through the manhole cover and looked down.
However, under the manhole cover was a space of about five or six meters square, with three people inside. There was a slide on one side of the space, through which one could slide down to the underground block below.
However, the slide entrance in this space was locked.
In front of the slide, there was a staff member wearing a homeless house uniform sitting there, chatting with the other two mutants in the space.
Ingres listened for a while, paused, turned around and left silently.
The reason for leaving is that the slide below is not only connected to the narrow space, but also to the sewage channel.
The slide is now locked because the drain below is in operation. In other words, the slide has become a drainage channel.
The discharged water is undoubtedly the "acid rain" that is falling down.
According to the staff, the entrance will not be reopened until the acid rain is drained away. After all, acid rain is harmful, and if you enter the slide now, it will penetrate your skin even through your clothes, which will be bad if you develop illness.
The two people waiting were waiting for the water to drain.
But God knows when the water will drain. We probably have to wait until the rain outside stops.
Although Angel could control them through illusion and then force his way into the underground sewer, he thought about it... and finally gave up the decision.
The reason for giving up is that there is actually an entrance to the underground block nearby.
Moreover, the entrance is located in a shopping mall next to the Tina Entertainment Building.
Angel looked at it from a God's perspective and found that there was nothing wrong with the entrance over there. There was not even anyone guarding it.
It’s just right, I can also go there and complete the “Hide and Seek in the Building” mission.
Originally, Angel was thinking about going to the black market first, and then playing "hide and seek in the building" after coming back; but after thinking about it carefully, it seems more cost-effective to complete the side quest first, get the Smokescreen Scholar's puzzle, and then go to the black market.
Then you can go to the black market and sell two pages of the book.
It was because of this thought, and the fact that he encountered the sewer drainage problem, that Angel changed his mind.
Walking out of the alley, Angel headed towards Tina Entertainment while looking towards Gleipnir.
Gleipnir was still completing his mission in the challenge space.
"No progress yet?" Angel asked as he looked at Gleipnir who was coming downstairs with the design drawings.
Gleipnir: "...If I had made any progress, I wouldn't be here."
"When I first saw this mission, I thought I had found a bargain. I could get out quickly, but now it seems that satisfying Anna's taste is not that easy."
Then, Gleipnir started to complain.
Gleipnir drew again while Ingres was on his way to Zuniga, and again she drew five drafts.
From the Daytime Mirror Realm to the Wild Sacrifice Plane, from the Pointed Man civilization of Druna to the Barbarian civilization of the Wild Realm, the styles are all-encompassing.
There are even elemental armor designs from Chen Chi's world.
I guess every one of these design drafts would attract a lot of designers.
But when Gleipnir threw the designs into the lake, he got a series of black "X". At that time, even though Gleipnir was very good at keeping his energy, he wanted to jump into the river to pull out Anna's undead and beat him up.
However, Gleipnir finally restrained himself.
"It just so happens that I have drawn another one. If this one doesn't pass, I will really have no other choice."
Although Gleipnir knew many different styles of clothing, since the previous ones failed, she really couldn't think of anything else that could pass.
Gleipnir said as he took out the manuscript in his hand and motioned for Angel to take a look.
Ingres had actually seen it before. It was a design draft of a "dress", with a nebula as the skirt, the starry sky as the veil, a meteor as the train, and the bouquet in her hand was still a lonely star...
Although this design draft was just a rough outline, it still made Ingres feel extremely amazed.
"Very beautiful." Ingres exclaimed sincerely.
Gleipnir: "This dress is called 'Sea of Stars'. I once saw it in an astrology magazine. It was worn by a legendary celestial wizard."
"If this one doesn't pass, then I can only say that Anna is blind."
Angel: "...That's not the case. Maybe I didn't find the right mechanism?"
Gleipnir shook his head and did not answer. Instead, he asked, "How is the situation on your side? Didn't you say before that you met someone who was suspected to be targeted by the fashion monster?"
Angel: "I have already contacted that person and received the mission..."
Angel briefly talked about the "Hide and Seek in the Building" mission and the fashion monster involved in this mission.
"Smokescreen Scholar? Never heard of it." Gleipnir: "Mansion hide-and-seek, this task would be difficult if I were to do it. But if you do it, it should be easy to complete, right?"
Angel did not deny: "I have locked up all the corpses."
"Sure enough." Gleipnir pondered for two seconds: "If I fail this time, how about you come over and touch me to see if the random task you receive will be easier?"
Angel: "If it doesn't work, then I'll come over."
Gleipnir nodded silently and came to the lake.
The moment she stood on the lakeshore, Anna's ghostly face was already floating on the surface of the lake, her dark eyes fixed on Gleipnir.
Gleipnir took out the manuscript and silently threw it into the lake.
The pale ghost hand dragged the design into the water.
Before, after Anna received the design draft, she made an evaluation almost instantly and returned the design draft, even before the ripples on the water surface disappeared.
But this time, the ghost hand did not come out again for a long time.
Just when Gleipnir's eyes were getting brighter and brighter and he felt that he had a chance this time, the design draft floated out silently.
When he saw the black "X" on the design, Gleipnir's expression instantly fell.
"What kind of design do you want?" No matter how calm he was, Gleipnir couldn't help but question the ghost face under the lake.
But Anna had no reaction at all, as if she was just a ruthless punching machine.
Gleipnir and Anna stared at each other across the lake for a full minute before Gleipnir turned and left, muttering to himself as he walked.
"Don't let the glory overwhelm you. I hope the glory can wash your eyes."
Angel: "..."
Gleipnir went upstairs silently without saying a word.
Only when they returned to the fourth floor and sat in the corridor at the door did Gleipnir ask, "Come on, please?"
Angel: "I'll come over when I'm done here."
Gleipnir nodded and remained silent.
The atmosphere was a bit dull, and Angel didn't know what to say. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Perhaps you can change your thinking and try again."
Grapniel paused for two seconds before asking, "What's the idea?"
Angel: "Lower the level a little more."
Gleipnir: “???”
Angel: "I have seen Anna's design drafts before. With her design level, it is impossible for her to design a costume that reaches the level of 'Sea of Stars'."
"Anna is a fashion designer. Although her design skills are poor, her appreciation skills are definitely not bad. She can definitely see that Xing Zhihai is excellent."
"But even so, she still gave it an unsatisfactory evaluation. Isn't that strange?"
Gleipnir thought for a moment, frowned and said, "This is indeed a problem."
Angel: "Moreover, the mission objective clearly states that only if we can appease Anna's ghost can we be considered successful. But giving Anna a design that she absolutely cannot design, can this really appease her soul?"
Gleipnir seemed to understand what Angel meant when he heard this: "You mean, you want me to design a design that's on Anna's level?"
Angel nodded: "That's about what I mean."
Gleipnir looked thoughtful. "You have a point. But in my opinion, although a fashion designer requires a lot of technical skills, even a designer with average skills can still create stunning works as long as he has inspiration."
In other words, even if Gleipnir came up with some designs on Anna's level, it wouldn't necessarily help him clear the game.
"However, what you said is indeed a method. Since you have something else to do, I will try it first."
After saying this, Gleipnir prepared to pick up the draft paper and start drawing.
At this time, Angel suddenly interrupted and said, "Wait."
Gleipnir raised his head from his desk and asked with a puzzled expression, "What's wrong?"
Angel: "Don't stay in the hallway, go to the room."
"But I will be affected by Anna in this room..." Gleipnir subconsciously wanted to refuse, but halfway through, he suddenly realized something.
"Yes, I want to draw a design that Anna is satisfied with, so I must design it under her influence!"
She used to paint in her room, but due to some unknown influence, she would feel dissatisfied with the painting halfway through and then crumple it into a ball.
All these actions show that the so-called "unknown influence" is actually Anna's influence.
Therefore, as long as you can draw a complete design under Anna's influence, without giving up or getting frustrated, that may be the key to passing the level!
"This kind of low-level fashion monster mission can't be that difficult. There must be a hint. And the 'influence' in the room is the hint!" Gleipnir muttered in a low voice and walked into the room: "Strange, why didn't I think of it before?"
In fact, this is not difficult to understand.
The main reason was that Gleipnir had seen too many excellent styles of design in the civilizations he had seen, so when she was completing this task, the first thing she thought of was to take out something from her own knowledge, rather than thinking about the secrets to completing the task.
As long as you calm down and think about the abnormality of the copy, it is not difficult to find the key to the problem.
Angel didn't care too much about it before, so he didn't think about how to pass the level; until Gleipnir wanted her to come and help complete the task, he started to think about how to pass the level.
Then, as a bystander, he quickly found something unusual.
This reminded Gleipnir.
Seeing that Gleipnir had entered the room and started drawing a new design, Angel did not continue watching.
Because this time her painting could not be completed as quickly as before.
Under Anna's influence, even if Gleipnir had thousands of beautiful designs in his mind, they might not meet the requirements; all she had to do was to keep trying and making mistakes until she found the right answer.
If it is short, it may take a few minutes; if it is long, it may take several hours.
Of course, if it really takes several hours, even if Gleipnir has now found the "way to pass the level", after Angel finishes his work, he will go over to intercept the task and complete it as soon as possible.
After all, the countdown for the main quest is about to end, so completing the quest is still the top priority.
