Chapter 3903 Channel and Watching
Hearing Angel's question, Dolos subconsciously prepared to avoid answering by saying "core instructions".
But just as he was about to speak, he suddenly remembered that he had already separated from his original "human-machine" body.
It's like being reborn!
And no longer restricted by core instructions!
Dolores was stunned for several seconds before coming to his senses: "Of course."
Next, Doros told the information he knew.
After a while, the fog in Angel's mind about the "Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array" gradually dissipated...
The Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array, in fact, as long as you analyze the title "Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering" word by word, you can understand it.
What is "Holy Eye"? It actually refers to His Excellency Moon Eye. "Holy Eye" is a respectful title given to the deity by believers.
What is "prayer gathering"? It is the gathering of prayers.
"Magic array" refers to a collection of rules.
So the meaning of "Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array" is: to gather the believers' prayers to the Moon Eye in a magic array.
To put it bluntly, "the prayers of believers" are actually the power of faith.
This is why it is clearly mentioned in the introduction of the Beacon of Faith that placing it in the "Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array" can generate faith crystals.
When Doros spoke up to this point, he had basically finished introducing the situation of the "Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array", but there was still no information about the "dark corner entrance", which made Angel feel a little strange.
Just ask directly.
Dolos did not explain immediately. Instead, after a moment of silence, he asked, "Dark Corner is a very special and closed world. Are you sure you want to go to Dark Corner?"
Angel nodded: "Of course."
Dolores: "Even if it's basically difficult to return after you go there, are you willing to go to the dark corner?"
Doros's eyes were very serious, and even Luliana spoke at this time: "It is easy to enter the dark corner but difficult to leave. Sir, you must be serious when making a decision."
Angel didn't take it too seriously at first, but Luliana tried to dissuade him, which made Angel curious: "Why is it so difficult to return?"
Dolos: "The exit of the Dark Corner is very rare. For the wanderers living in the Dark Corner or the members of the major organizations, it is basically just a legend. 99.9% of the people who fall into the Dark Corner can say goodbye to leaving."
Angel: "Then how did you get out of the dark corner?"
Dolos and Luliana looked at each other before he slowly said, "Luliana and I were sent out by the Lord of the Levels, His Excellency Moon Eye."
“But the most important reason why we were able to leave the dark corner is not because of the ability of the level master, but because we have no physical body.”
Angel: "Without a physical body?"
Doros nodded. "The Dark Corner is a very strange world. You can even imagine it as a man-eating monster. It likes to eat all living creatures with flesh, especially humans. To it, humans are like the best and most delicious food."
"Once the food enters my stomach, it's impossible for me to let you out."
"What comes out is either waste or does not qualify as food..."
This is the case with Dolos and Luliana.
They were once human beings, but after being transformed by Lord Yueyan, they became "mechanical creations".
"Mechanical creations" are non-food to An Jiao, so when they encounter an exit, An Jiao will not deliberately block them.
Similarly, why are there so many fashion monsters in the world, but almost all of them have no "flesh body" but exist in some kind of energy form? It is because the fashion monster's flesh body is not allowed by the dark corner.
In other words, after Angel entered the dark corner, he wanted to leave unless he abandoned his physical body.
But even if you abandon your physical body, it's not easy to leave, because... there are very few exits in the dark corners.
The exit of the dark corner is not fixed in a certain place, but refreshed randomly and for a very short time. The master of the level has a strong control over the level and can find the refreshed exit in time, but non-level masters do not have this ability.
This is also the reason why Moon Eye was able to find the exit and send Dolos and Luliana out in time.
"In short, if you can avoid entering a dark corner, then don't go there. Although there are treasures that many people desire, it is also a cage that traps everyone..."
"Even though Luliana and I have come out of the Dark Corner, we are still trapped in our mechanical bodies, and our souls are still locked in the cage of the Dark Corner."
Dolos's sentiments also resonated with Luliana.
There was also a hint of sadness in Luliana's eyes.
The world is a cage, and the human body is also a cage.
There are cages everywhere, the body is trapped, and the mind is trapped too.
The quiet atmosphere lasted for several minutes, and finally Angel broke the silence: "I met someone who left the dark corner in the flesh in Modern City."
Although Angel could hear the sincerity in Dolos's story, he didn't care too much.
The main thing is that Angel has met people who left the Dark Corner in the flesh. For example, Zuniga and the man from the mountains left the Dark Corner in the flesh.
And Abigail, who also left the dark corner in the flesh.
So, maybe what Dolos said is true, but it is just his personal opinion after all. The world is big and the possibilities are endless.
Most importantly, the dark corners in reality may be like cages that are difficult to escape from, but the dark corners in the Dream Crystal Origin, no matter how difficult it is, are just a copy of a fairyland.
Doros: "Although it is rare for the physical body to leave the dark corner, it is not completely impossible. Some people are lucky enough to find the exit and the dark corner is not difficult, so it is possible to leave the dark corner by luck."
"But the probability of this happening is very small."
Dolores had heard of such cases when he was in the dark corner, but he had never seen one.
When Dolores answered, he was also paying attention to the changes in Angel's expression. Seeing that he didn't care at all, he stopped trying to persuade him. He just made one last confirmation: "So, sir, have you really decided to go to the dark corner?"
"Yes." Angel nodded.
Doros also knew that it was useless to dissuade him further, so he slowly explained the other hidden meaning of the "Holy Eye Prayer Gathering Array".
It's hard to get out of the dark corner.
But when entering dark corners, there are not so many restrictions.
When passing through the dark corner, some people just turn around, some people just open the door, and they may fall from the real world into the dark corner.
The Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array is also a way to enter dark corners.
"The Holy Eye Prayer Gathering Array is used to gather faith. So, sir, do you know what to do after gathering faith?" Although Dolos was asking, he gave the answer himself before Angel could reply.
"After gathering the faith, it is natural to pass this power of faith to the gods, so that the gods can listen to the wishes and requests of the believers."
Who is the god? Moon Eyes.
Where is the eye of the moon? Dark corner.
So how to transmit the power of faith to the Moon Eye? That is naturally to open a faith channel that goes straight to the dark corner.
Although this passage is used to transmit faith, it is connected to the Dark Corner after all. The Dark Corner's will will then look towards the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array. If there happens to be "food" here, it doesn't mind swallowing the "food" together.
This is another hidden meaning of the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array.
It does not send people directly into the dark corner, but it can attract the attention of the dark corner through the channel of faith, increasing the possibility of entering the dark corner.
"After activating the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array, it's not 100% certain that you can enter the Dark Corner. But the probability is higher than in other places. At least here, you have an 80 to 90 percent chance of being noticed by the Dark Corner and then stuck in the Dark Corner."
After listening to Doros's story, a hint of surprise flashed in Angel's eyes.
He had previously guessed that the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array might have a teleportation function, and only in this way could it transmit to dark corners.
But unexpectedly, this is a magic circle that uses mechanisms to create miracles.
The Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array is just an introduction. The real purpose is "the gaze from the dark corner". It attracts the gaze from the dark corner so as to be "swallowed" by the dark corner.
Luliana then added, "After activating the Holy Eyes Prayer Array, the others may only have an 80 to 90 percent chance of being stuck in a dark corner. But for you, sir, it should be 100 percent that you will be stuck in a dark corner."
"Me?" Angel pointed at himself: "Why?"
Luliana tilted her head, with a crack between her brows, as if there was a hidden eye staring at Angel.
After a moment, she said, "I feel the presence of Dark Corner on you. As long as you are contaminated with Dark Corner's aura, if you are noticed by Dark Corner again, the probability of being captured will be 100%."
After hearing what Luliana said, Angel immediately understood what she meant.
"Call of the Dark Corner"
This is a special state that was previously encountered in Abigail's sealing ritual, which means being marked by the Dark Corner. Once entering the capture range of the Dark Corner, there will be a greater chance of being captured by the Dark Corner.
For other people, it is definitely a negative effect, but for Angel, it can ensure that once he is targeted by the dark corner, he will enter the dark corner 100%.
This is why Luliana believed that Angel would definitely enter the dark corner after the magic circle was opened.
Next, Angel learned in detail about the operating mechanism of the "Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array".
From Dolos, Angel learned additional information.
In fact, even without the "Faith Crystal", the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array can still be activated. However, each activation requires the prayers of believers to be re-condensed, which takes time.
To put it simply... the Holy Eye Prayer Array has a skill CD, which is the spell casting cooldown time.
According to Doros, if the believers of Modern City pray a lot and are lucky enough to be captured by the Holy Eye Prayer Gathering Array, then the Holy Eye Prayer Gathering Array can be opened once every six months to a year.
Now, the cooling time of the Holy Eye Prayer Array has been completed, so it can be activated directly without the "Faith Crystal".
Of course, Angel can also choose to use the crystal of faith to activate it, so that the Holy Eye Prayer Array will not enter the cooling time.
"So the function of the faith crystal is to charge the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array..." Angel thought to himself, "But then again, the automatic charging time of this Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array is too long, isn't it? The effect of the Faith Beacon is also to gather the power of faith. It shouldn't take half a year to a year for it to produce faith crystals, right?"
If the Beacon of Faith really produces one Faith Crystal Block every half a year, then it would not be easy to continue exploring the dark corners.
Ingres decided to give it a try.
According to the instructions of the Beacon of Faith, it must be placed at the "faith receiving port" of the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array so that it can continue to steal faith.
The faith receiving port of the magic circle is actually the location of the three pressure plates mentioned above.
Two of the pressure plates have been destroyed, leaving only one functional.
Angel first said goodbye to Luliana and Doros, left the underwater church, and found the location of the only pressure plate.
This is the only seedling. In order to prevent it from being destroyed again, Angel directly left a part of the power of nightmare nearby to form a special protective shield.
After doing all this, Angel placed the beacon of faith inside the protective shield.
With the activation of the Beacon of Faith, its inherent "Faith Condensation" skill began to operate spontaneously.
Although Angel could not see the extent of the effect of "Faith Condensation", he could vaguely feel that there seemed to be an invisible net that was spreading out from the hidden waters.
This invisible net even passed through the hidden waters and entered the outer void...
Void?
It took Angel two seconds to react. The secret waters had been disconnected from the Companion Lake in East District 19.
That’s right. The connection period between the Secret Waters and the Companion Lake is twenty-four hours, and each connection lasts about half an hour to an hour.
The connection cycle has long passed, so the hidden waters have been disconnected from the Modern City and entered the void.
The next connection will be at six o'clock tomorrow morning.
However, even though the secret waters were suspended alone in the void at this time, the invisible net woven by the condensation of faith was not hindered by the void at all.
It continued to spread, even entering the companion star lake, and was still expanding...
Angel stared at it for about two minutes, and suddenly a drop of golden liquid fell from the glass ball.
At the moment when this drop of golden liquid took shape, Ingres seemed to hear countless voices. These voices included men and women, old and young. They were all praying silently, wishing for blessings from the dark corner and for the attention of the holy eyes.
Obviously, these are all believers of the Dark Corner Cult. Their prayers were gathered together and formed this drop of golden liquid.
Two minutes later, a new drop of golden liquid appeared in the glass ball and merged with the previous drop.
Ingres continued to observe for a while.
"A drop of golden liquid will form in about two to two and a half minutes." Angel made a rough calculation and took out the crystal block of faith for comparison.
I have basically come up with a number in my mind: five days.
In about five days, a faith crystal will form inside the Faith Beacon.
Although five days is still quite slow, compared to the Holy Eye Prayer Array which takes more than half a year to charge, the speed at which the Beacon of Faith generates crystal blocks is already very good.
But it’s right to think about it.
The Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array can only gather the prayers of some believers from 6:00 to 6:30 in the morning, and its capture range is limited to the hidden waters. If there is no faith power from the outside world that day, the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array will directly be zero.
The Beacon of Faith is different. With the basic bonus of the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array, it directly spreads itself into a giant net, extending to the Modern City, capturing people non-stop around the clock.
One is passive capture, the other is active attack. And there are differences in capture range and capture efficiency. The Faith Beacon is naturally better than the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array.
