Chapter 3414 Whirlpool

 In the next hour, the outside world changed drastically.

 According to Laplace, the mysterious dragon has sent his mirror dragon to take over the ceremony.

 The person taking over from Ning Tai's clone class is none other than Ms. Morian.

Morrigan and Granny Dragoncrow are of the same race, and they are also very close relatives. It is definitely best for her to negotiate with Granny Dragoncrow.

Furthermore, as the leader of the Dragon and Crow Clan, Morrigan has an extremely high level of bloodline and will never be restricted by the rules and abilities of Blood Disaster.

 Hence, it was the most appropriate choice for Ea to hand over the person who took over the blood disaster ritual to her.

After Morrigan arrived at the Blood Scourge Ritual, she easily suppressed the Blood Scourge. After understanding the situation, she began to clear the area around the Blood Scourge Ritual... and even the entire stall area.

 With the cooperation of the Jingmu clan guards, a defensive area was soon established centered on the current stall area.

There is a defensive area to block it, which can prevent outsiders from accidentally entering it and being absorbed by the blood disaster.

Morrigan has entered the state, and Laplace's energy clones naturally retreated and returned to the Yinsen space.

However, the other clones came back, but the Ningtai clone was left near the Blood Disaster Ritual by Laplace.

The role left by Ningtai's clone is to keep abreast of the latest intelligence developments.

 After all, the Blood Disaster Ceremony has now become the second focus in Crystal City besides the main gathering place.

After knowing the information about the Doom Puppet, all the tribes knew that the cross-border message of the Blood Disaster Ritual was of infinite value, and it was also the only channel for them to obtain information about the Doom Puppet in the future.

 Because of this, Laplace knew very well that, if not for herself, she had to control this only channel for the sake of the entire Sun Mirror Realm.

 So, it is an inevitable choice to stay in Ningtai's clone.

 …

 After Laplace's energy clones returned to the Yinsen space, the blood disaster ceremony was barely over.

 After that, it’s time to wait for the information from the Dark Mirror Realm.

It was also at this time that the divine blood clone sitting opposite raised his head and looked at Angel: "Since your intuition is right, I am willing to admit defeat. I will give you my blessing next, but please wait a moment, I A ceremony needs to be arranged.”

 After a pause, the divine blood clone continued: "Before arranging the ceremony, I need to find a quiet place to prepare the blood ink used in the ceremony."

After speaking, the divine blood clone stood up, nodded slightly to Angel, turned around and walked into the black forest.

Looking at the disappearing figure of the divine blood clone, Angel whispered: "This blessing sounds very complicated."

As soon as Angel finished speaking, he heard a cold voice: "It's not that it seems like it, but it's actually very complicated."

 The voice came from Angel’s right.

 Ingres’s left hand side is Laplace, and on his right hand side, there was no one before, but now—

Angor looked sideways and found a translucent figure sitting on the other side of him.

This person is the phantom clone that appeared before.

 And it’s not just the shadow clones. Angel noticed that almost all of Laplace’s energy clones came nearby.

A graceful figure, one black and one green, walked out of the black forest, a misty silhouette floated down from the clouds in the sky, a clone with petals floating all over the flower sea came over, and even a few people walked out of the peaceful lake. A clone wrapped in blisters.

 A dozen clones all gathered near the tea table and sat down one by one.

After they sat down, some drank tea, some whispered, and some communicated with Zeus in the sky... They seemed to be busy with their own things, but Angel could always find that they occasionally turned to his side. cast a glance.

Even though no one was talking to him directly, Angel still felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

 It’s not that I’m afraid of society, it’s just... awkward.

  There was a whole table of girls, and he was the only man. Angel felt a little out of place.

 Although he also knows that these so-called "girly" looks, in fact, there is no difference between men and women at their core...

 “How long will this blessing take?” Angel couldn’t help but ask.

　　Shadow clone: ​​"Are you asking me?"

Angor nodded. After all, it was the shadow clone that answered his words.

The phantom clone thought for a while: "Just saying 'blessings' won't take too long, maybe just one or two sentences."

“However, it will take some time to prepare the blood ink required for the blessing of the divine blood.”

"The specific preparation time depends on what kind of blood ink she plans to use. The more complex the blood ink, the longer it will take. It will probably take a few hours to a few days."

Angor: "???" Has it been so long?

 After a few hours, he managed to sit down and still manage.

 But a few days would be too long, and he felt like he couldn't sit still.

 The shadow clone nodded matter-of-factly: "After all, the blessing of divine blood is extraordinary. If she is not prepared in advance, the backlash will be huge for her."

 The blessing of the divine blood clone will have backlash?

Even if we don’t prepare in advance, the backlash will be huge?

In other words, even if you are prepared in advance, there will be some backlash?

Thinking of this, Angel quickly asked about the doubts in his heart.

 The shadow clone nodded: "That's right."

Angor frowned: "If it backfires on me, then forget this blessing."

Angor said, looking at Laplace, trying to get Laplace to send a message to the divine blood clone. But Angel had forgotten that it was Laplace who made him agree to bet against Laplace...

 Laplace: "Don't worry, this backlash is nothing to her. Besides, if Luigi knew about this, he would probably thank you with tears in his eyes."

Angor: "???" What? Why involve Luigi again?

 Laplace did not say a word, and Angel could only look at the phantom clone. But the shadow clone no longer explained at this time, but said calmly: "You will know after you get the blessing."

“Don’t worry, this backlash is just a simple restriction and will not cause any harm to her.”

 But what the specific restrictions are, the phantom clone did not say any more.

Angor also tried to ask other clones on the table, but everyone seemed to have the same message and remained silent. Only the clone of the wind element, surrounded by the breeze, said to him meaningfully: "You will know after you receive the blessing."

Angor had no choice but to give up when he saw this.

About ten minutes later, Laplace whispered: "There was a message from the divine blood clone. It took her about eight hours to prepare the blood ink this time, and it took about ten minutes to draw the ritual."

 Eight hours. Angel muttered in his heart, eight hours would not be a long time in other places.

 But here, he spent a few minutes, and it felt like hours had passed.

 It’s still quite long…

Furthermore, this looks like a tea party, and in a sense it is indeed a tea party, but from Angel’s observation, none of the things that should be done at a tea party are done...

Witches will exchange information at tea parties, exchange their favorite items, and even exchange their experimental experiences. Of course, there will also be gossip and comparison sessions.

Now in this tea party, the atmosphere, environment and personnel are in place, but the process is completely missing.

 No one spoke, no one communicated, and no one traded.

Angor even thought that it would be good for you to chat about gossip. He can stay up for a while just listening to gossip.

 But there was no gossip, only the occasional glances that came to look at him.

Perhaps seeing Angel's discomfort, Laplace explained softly: "We are also communicating, but they are used to spiritual communication..."

 Psychic communication is much faster than talking.

Furthermore, these are energy clones, not Laplace's temporal body, and have not lived in the outside world for a long time. It is actually very laborious for them to suddenly interrupt the sharing of minds and communicate with each other through slow conversations.

Angor nodded understandingly: "What is the topic you are talking about?"

Laplace paused for a moment, glanced at the clone opposite, then looked away and said calmly: "In all aspects."

Angor: "..." I saw your eyes paused. Is this a lie? Are you talking about me?

Angor cursed in his heart, but he said calmly on the surface: "Since it will take some time for the divine blood clone to prepare the blood ink, do we want to go out and have a look now? How is the meeting hosted by Eya?"

 Laplace: "You mean the meeting of the leaders of the various tribes?"

Angor nodded. When they entered the text space, there were only three parties: Mirror Dragon, Pilusiu and Jingmu clan. But later, according to Laplace, Ea had notified the leaders of each clan to come to the Cloud Cave.

And revealed the matter of the disaster puppet to a limited extent to the leaders of each tribe.

 In terms of time, this meeting should be almost over now, right?

 After all, the strength of the various races in the Mirror Territory is uneven, but the Hundred Dragon Divine Kingdom is the only one. It was said that the leaders of the various tribes were meeting, but in fact it was Ea who informed the various tribes with the authority of the mirror dragon.

 There are very few people who can really say a few words in meetings.

 Therefore, meetings here are not like human meetings, where it takes days and nights to pull off a tiger's skin and wave a big flag. As long as Eya sets a strategy, the meeting will not last long.

As expected, Laplace said directly: "The meeting is over, but I think it's better not to go out yet."

Angor was stunned for a moment: "Why?"

 Laplace: "The whirlpool is thick outside right now."

The whirlpool is getting thicker? Meaning, there were quarrels or even fights outside? Angel looked at Laplace in confusion.

 Laplace nodded: "Yes."

 Other people's whirlpool is equivalent to gossip after dinner. If it were elsewhere, Angel wouldn't be too interested in this kind of gossip, but at this moment he wanted to know, what kind of vortex is it?

Especially, how dare it happen at the end of a meeting of all ethnic groups?

Angor squinted his eyes and guessed: "Is it related to the issue of login allocation?"

 In Angel's opinion, the thing that is most likely to cause whirlpools and disputes among various ethnic groups is the distribution of login devices.

　　The allocation of loggers will cause the problem of "not a shortage but an imbalance". To a larger extent, this is actually also a problem of volume.

Especially for two ethnic groups that are almost the same in all aspects, if one party gets more login quota, the other party will inevitably be dissatisfied.

Also, if there is a gap in the quotas between two ethnic groups who already have enmity, a whirlpool will also arise. Just like the Changhuo tribe and many ethnic groups...

 So, in Angel’s view, the distribution of login devices must be the center of the swirling dispute.

 However, Laplace shook his head: "There is indeed a certain contradiction among the various races in the distribution of login devices, but this contradiction has been suppressed by Ea."

“Furthermore, the loggers are not allocated now, so even if there is a conflict, it has not yet erupted.”

Anger: “It’s not the distribution of loggers. Does it have to do with the formation of troops?”

According to the original plan, before the Doom Puppet enters the Sun Mirror Realm, each tribe will send troops to form multiple formations in the void. In this way, once there is a problem at any sentry station, they can know the situation as soon as possible.

Furthermore, such an arrangement can also lock the trajectory of the Doom Puppet to a certain extent.

 But there is a problem here, because according to current theory, the closer a sentry station is to a weak point in space, the more likely it is to encounter a puppet of disaster.

 Hence, if possible, each ethnic group must want their people to stay away from weak points in space.

　　When all races think this way, whirlpools will grow.

But... Laplace once again denied Angel's guess: "The formation of troops will be controlled by the mirror dragon. Even if the tribes have selfish motives, they will not dare to resist."

“So, it has nothing to do with the formation of troops.”

Angor scratched his head. He listed all the things that were most likely to create a vortex. But if none of them were possible, what would be the "whirlpool"?

Facing Angel's confused look, Laplace said calmly: "It's Gleipnir's whirlpool."

Angor: "Ah...what?"

He thought about many whirlpools and whether the various tribes were quarreling because of discord. But what I didn't expect was that the center of the whirlpool was not someone else, but Gleipnir!

You must know that Gleipnir is not only Laplace's current person, she is attending the meeting outside and represents the facade of the "Dream Mirror".

 The "dream mirror" is not just Laplace, but also...himself.

 So, is this something that happened to yourself? The stage fell to my feet by itself?

Angor looked puzzled: "Why is there a whirlpool in Gleipnir? Is there any dispute between her and other ethnic groups?"

 Laplace said lightly: "You should know about her whirlpool."

Angor: "I know?"

 Laplace nodded and whispered a name: "Lita."

As Laplace finished speaking, Angel was stunned for two seconds, and then he showed a look of sudden realization.

 Li Ta, actually Li Ta? !

Angor: "Did Gleipnir have a dispute with the Jingmu clan?"

 Laplace nodded: "Yes."

Angor asked again: "Did she...show her cards?"
