Chapter 3391 Pretender

   Angel felt the spirituality, walking in the void of consciousness for several minutes. But when they descended from the void of consciousness, it was actually only two seconds from the outside world.

  The sense of time in reality and the sense of time in the void of consciousness are completely different things.

   This strange feeling that the time does not match the account made Angel a little dazed.

  However, when he first went to see Laplace's body, Angel had already experienced a sense of time change. With experience, the trance this time was only for a moment, and soon returned to normal.

  When Angel opened his eyes again, he found that he had left the void of consciousness.

   They are floating in mid-air.

   Surrounded by criss-crossing streets in the sky, various forms of extraordinary life shuttle back and forth among them.

   About two meters below their feet, there was a stone man setting up a stall with a flying carpet.

  Five or six meters above them, there was a crowd gathered, watching a teacup introduce the special products of Teluga City.

  The location where Angel and Laplace appeared happened to be the center of such a three-dimensional street in the sky.

  Busy tourists are constantly shuttling around them, but the magic is that no one pays attention to them.

   As if, they do not exist.

   And no one saw the big silver mirror behind Angel and Laplace.

  The two of them are like ghosts not in this time and space, ignored by everyone.

   "They can't see us. We seem to have left the void of consciousness, but in fact we are still one level away from the real outside world." Perhaps seeing the doubt in Angel's eyes, Laplace explained.

   To use a metaphor, if people outside are in the "1" dimension, then they are in the "1.1" dimension.

   It looks very close, even able to witness everything in the outside world, but in fact it is still 0.1 away.

  As high digits, they can observe everything in low digits. But the low digits can't exceed 0.1, and they can see the high digits interface.

   This 0.1 is an insurmountable moat for other people around.

   Of course, this is not absolute. If there are people around who can travel consciously and observe from the perspective of consciousness without the body, they will still be discovered.

   But this kind of existence is either a special talent, or it is above the legend.

   This is just one of the many stalls in Crystal City. Most of the stalls here are marginal figures of various ethnic groups, and it is basically impossible for anyone to observe them.

   Because of this, the two of them and the shining mirror behind them were ignored by the people around them.

   "If people around us can't see us, how can we communicate with the parrot?" Angel asked.

   "Don't worry, I'll let the parrot see us." Laplace didn't say anything, but just motioned for Angel to follow her.

  Angel didn't bother to ask why.

Angel knows Laplace very well. If she doesn't explain, there are basically two reasons: either some kind of secret is involved, and it is not a good thing to know; or the level of knowledge exceeds the scope that Angel can understand. It is tantamount to explaining in vain. Just like you can’t tell Xia Chong about ice in winter, Xia Chong can’t understand what winter is, nor can he understand what ice is. Without this concept, it’s impossible to imagine things beyond cognition.

  No matter what the reason is, it doesn't make sense to Angel.

  Since it has no meaning, there is no need to explain it.

  Guided by Laplace, they started to head for the parrot.

  When they didn't move before, Angel didn't notice the difference, but when they moved, the change happened.

  The surrounding world seems to be frozen... No, it's not frozen, the people around still move, but the movements are slowed down countless times.

  In Angel's field of vision, only his and Laplace's movements are normal, and everything else is slowed down.

  It seems that he and Laplace are the vivid and colorful people, and everything around them is all old black and white movies frozen in a certain frame.

  However, this situation only occurs when they are moving. Once they stop, the surroundings resume the normal flow of time again.

  Is this the truth of the difference between consciousness aura and real time sense?

  Angel didn't know the specific reason, but just silently recorded his feelings at this time. If he has the opportunity to study similar subjects in the future, this trip can be used as a reference.

   After a while, they came to the small mirror where the parrot was.

  In the mirror is Piluxiu's shop, and the parrot's shop is included in it.

  However, after they went in, they found that Piluxiu was in the shop, but the parrot was missing.

  If they were in the outside world, they might be able to lock the position of the parrot through certain spells, but now they are in "1.1", and there is no way to cast spells across the interface.

   Laplace pondered for a moment, and said, "Let me ask this Piluxiu."

  Ask? Angor's eyes lit up, and he nodded slightly. He just wanted to see how Laplace intervened in the outside world.

  However, Laplace's operation seemed completely ignorant to Angel.

  I saw Laplace walking directly in front of the drowsy store manager Piluxiu, her eyes were faintly flickering with strange energy.

  As for the store manager Piluxiu, he was still moaning listlessly one second ago, but the next second, with a blink of his eyelids, he saw Laplace who suddenly appeared in front of him.

   "Ah... eh?! You, when did you enter the store." Store manager Piluxiu widened his eyes in surprise, looking at Laplace and Angel behind her.

   "Just when you were dozing off." Laplace said lightly.

Store manager Piluxiu was stunned for a moment, and thinking carefully, he was indeed dozing off before... It was really because there were no customers, and the invention mouse he used for "training" and "refreshing" was bought again, making him even more bored up.

   It seemed that you really squinted for a while just now?

  In this way, these two people should have come in when he was dozing off... No wonder.

   Piluxiu didn't doubt this statement, and he didn't pay much attention to Laplace and Angel, after all, they had been here before.

   "Come here..." Piluxiu narrowed his eyes, "Isn't he also here to find the parrot?"

   "Yes, we have something to do with looking for a parrot." Angle paused, then asked softly, "You said 'yes' just now. Could it be that someone came to him before?"

  Pi Luxiu propped his face with one hand, and said lazily: "Yes, a man came and called him out just now."

  Someone called out the parrot? Angel frowned: "Then do you know where the parrot was called?"

   Piluxiu glanced at Angel angrily: "Why do you ask me this question? You ask yourself."

   Angel: "???" Ask us? What's the meaning?

  Piluxiu: "Isn't the one who called him out the one who came with you earlier?"

  Angel was taken aback: "You mean..."

  Pirouchi waved his hand: "It's the one who asked me if there was any sheet music for sale!"

  Angel and Laplace looked at each other, and they both saw incredulity in each other's eyes.

   There is no doubt that the person Piluxiu mentioned is exactly Luigi!

   But Angor knew very well that Luigi never called Luigi out from the beginning to the end.

  Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Angel continued to ask: "Then did you hear where they went?"

   Piluxiu shook his head directly: "I don't know, they said it in the cubicle, how do I know?"

   Angel: "Then when did they leave?"

   Piluxiu thought for a while, and said, "About an hour, or an hour and a half ago, anyway, it's been a long time since I left."

  While talking, Piluxiu was still muttering: "I don't know what the parrot is thinking, but it has packed all the goods, and it seems that it is going to go out with your companion."

  Laplace gave Angor a look, signaling to speak outside.

  Angel realized immediately, followed Laplace and left the shop.

When Piluxiu looked up again, he found that Laplace and Angel had disappeared, and he didn't care, he just murmured bitterly: "It's boring, I hate prostitutes the most, if I don't buy something next time, I will Say nothing."

  …

   On the other side, Angel and Laplace came to the side of the stall area.

   Laplace whispered: "Someone pretended to be Luigi and took the parrot away."

   This is not an inquiry or a discussion, but an affirmative sentence.

  As for why the parrot would listen, it is estimated that the fake Luigi used the excuse of "taking the parrot away" to make the parrot trust him. After all, they had signed a contract with the parrot, and they would take the parrot away as soon as possible.

   When the parrot sees "Luigi" coming to fulfill the contract, he naturally does not suspect him. This also explains why parrots pack up their salutes, as if they are about to travel far away.

  Because he is indeed going on a long trip, and in Parrot's mind, this is most likely a one-way ticket that will never return.

   Angel: "Then what should we do now?"

  Laplace was silent for a moment: "Find the parrot."

  Originally, Laplace also agreed with Angel's opinion on this matter, and tried not to get involved, but someone pretended to be Luigi and lied to the parrot, and this matter was related to them.

  No matter who the other party is, Laplace can't bear to see this behavior of pretending to be "Luigi" to deceive.

  Angel also saw the dissatisfaction in Laplace's eyes, and he also supported Laplace's idea. After all, if he can pretend to be Luigi this time, he may pretend to be himself next time.

   It's just that now there is a real question in front of us: "How do we find the parrot? And the pretender?"

  Laplace: "This is not difficult."

  While speaking, Laplace stretched out his fingertips to make a little space, and a blue-ray sand table with the Crystal City Ring Fort as the main body appeared in front of their eyes.

   On this sand table, there are six coordinate areas emitting bright lights.

  Seeing this, Angel also understood what Laplace meant.

  These six coordinates are exactly the places where the blood of the gods is the strongest that Xiaohong has detected before.

   Among them, there are three bright spots, which are in the free trade market, which is the stall area where they are now; the other three light spots are in other places outside the stall area.

  Before, Angel thought that the bright spots outside the stall area were that the parrot had stayed in those places for a short time before coming to the stall area, so that it could stay there.

   But now it seems that this should not be the case, but after the parrot was taken away by the fake "Luigi", these coordinates were contaminated with relevant atmosphere.

  If so deduced, the parrot should be in these coordinates at this time, or near these coordinates.

   "I understand." Angel: "Then let's check one by one according to this coordinate."

   Laplace nodded.

  Because Angel needs Laplace's help to travel in the void of consciousness, they can't split up and can only check the coordinates together.

  The coordinates of three of them in the stall area took them less than two minutes in the void of consciousness—maybe not even half a second outside—to complete the query.

No.

  The parrot is not in the stall area at this time. Presumably, he should be in the remaining three coordinates.

   Angel and Laplace have re-entered the real void of consciousness. Here, even if they stand still, the time sense of the outside world is still slow.

  So, it is the most convenient to communicate here, don't worry about wasting time.

   Angel and Laplace summed it up and found that the remaining three coordinates can be connected, much like a path. Among them, the coordinate closest to the stall area is an unknown area; the other two coordinates, one is in the corridor connecting Crystal City, and the other is an unknown ring fort.

  If the stall area is used as the starting point, a line is drawn to connect the remaining three coordinates, then the final target location is... an unknown ring fort.

  If the parrot is really tricked away, then his destination will be on a certain floor of the Ring Fort.

   Angel: "Shall we go directly to the Ring Fort?"

  Laplace thought for a while: "Let's look at the coordinates one by one. Anyway, they are all on the same line, and it won't take much time."

   Angel also agreed with Laplace's decision. The so-called "drawing a line" is just what they think. Who knows if this is actually the case?

   If not, then don't miss it.

   Therefore, although it is troublesome to check the coordinates one by one, it will not be missed.

  Laplace took Angor back on the road. In the void of consciousness, endless light spots surrounded Angor like stars, and carried a thrust, slowly pushing him to a more distant void.

   After an unknown period of time, Angor returned to the "1.1" interface.

  When Angel opened his eyes again, he found that there was still a "stall area" around him, but it was no longer the one they were in before.

   If there is no accident, this is the "unknown area" of the coordinate point.

  The so-called "unknown" simply means that Angel and Laplace don't know much about the internal layout of Crystal City, and don't know the specific place name, so naming it "unknown area" does not mean that it is mysterious.

  At present, the "unknown area" where the first coordinate is located is the new stall area.

  The parrot is here, maybe to hang out? Of course, it is also possible that he was deceived by the fake Luigi and wanted to "leave the Mirror Realm" with him, and happened to stay here during the process.
