Chapter 3661 Text Altar
After hearing Laplace's sigh, Angel looked towards the Uriel copy.
Through God’s perspective.
After Angel discovered that Luigi was online, he immediately began to use words to test the identities of Mr. Sun and Ms. Moon.
However, the two top bosses of the Sun and Moon Intelligence Agency did not seem to want to reveal their identities and chose to conceal them.
When Luigi asked them why they knew so much information, they replied: "Different positions mean different information."
Just like a child from a royal family and a child from a commoner, even if they are the same age, the former will definitely have more advantages in national intelligence.
"We have the Source World behind us. And the wizards of the Source World are spread all over the place, so in terms of intelligence alone, they are definitely stronger than you."
"As for why we know the information about the existence of miracles?"
"Because of curiosity."
Information about the strong, even if it is just about daily life, is something that the strong admirers are curious about. Once they have curiosity, they will definitely hope to be satisfied.
So through various collections and inquiries, I naturally pieced together some information.
Although there are some loopholes in what Ms. Moon said, Luigi put himself in her shoes and felt that... it made sense.
Just like when he learned that Uriel was from the Dasman Empire, the first thing he did was to ask him for information about artists from the Dasman Empire.
Why would you ask about a stranger who is completely unrelated to you? Because you are curious.
So, after listening to Ms. Moon's "sophistry", Luigi believed it superficially.
In addition, since they chose to conceal their identities, Luigi's doubts were at least 80% relieved.
Seeing this, Angel also withdrew his gaze.
"Don't worry, there's always someone secretly carrying his suspicion."
Laplace: “???”
Angel had no intention of playing the role of Riddler, so he told what he had just seen in the Uriel copy.
After hearing this, Laplace also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the doubts were dispelled, it would be good.
It's not that he didn't tell Luigi, it's just that he is now the only channel of communication with the Sun and Moon Intelligence Agency, and they are getting along very well.
If Luigi knew their identities, it would be difficult to maintain the current harmonious communication.
Because Luigi's conversations would be distorted, the Sun and Moon Intelligence Agency might not be willing to reveal secret information so easily.
Therefore, it is better to continue to hide it for a while.
"By the way, did Luigi ask you what happened outside?"
Laplace nodded. "I did ask him. I also shared the information about the Star Train with him."
Because of this, Luigi's attention was diverted for a while and he did not question the identities of the two wizards, Sun and Moon, in reality.
Laplace asked in confusion: "You ask this, was this information originally intended to be hidden from him?"
Angel shook his head: "No, it's just that Luigi asked me just now, and in order to save time, I asked him to go offline and share his mind with you."
"Also, Ms. Moon just asked Luigi why she suddenly asked about the news of the Star Train."
"Luigi said 'simple curiosity'."
Angel shrugged: "But I feel like Lady Moon doesn't have any letter."
Laplace: "Luigi told me this just now when he went offline. Black Cat Juanjuan also seems to be suspicious of him, because ordinary people would not specifically ask about the platform when asking about the Star Train."
"Maybe they are now wondering if Luigi has encountered the platform of the Star Train?"
Angel sighed softly: "Forget it, if Luigi insists on not letting go, they won't continue to ask questions in order to increase their recognition."
Laplace was silent for a moment, and did not exchange glances on this topic again. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "Have you finished collecting the materials?"
Angel nodded: "Well, we have collected all the materials that can be collected outside."
He took out a big bag and gestured to put everything in it.
Laplace: "Shall we go in?"
Angel nodded, and under the halo of text, their figures slowly disappeared from outside the Uriel copy.
When their weightless bodies regained their balance, they had already arrived at the text space of "The Glutton's Feast". They were in the first floor lobby where they had left before.
"Can text space also record entry and exit locations?"
"You can choose to enter from the manor gate, or you can choose to enter the place where you left last time." Laplace said.
If it is your first time entering the text space, you can only enter through the manor gate.
"This is quite convenient, but why do I feel that the text space has replicated the power of the Gate to Wonderland..." Angel muttered in a low voice, and without saying anything else, he and Laplace walked towards the rooftop.
Soon, they arrived at the rooftop of the villa.
It is called the rooftop, but it is actually just the rooftop of the front building. This villa is formed by five buildings gathered together. The rooftop of the tallest building is comparable to a tower, and the remaining buildings are three stories high at the lowest and five stories high at the highest.
The rooftop where they are now is actually the rooftop of the lowest building, which is exactly the third floor.
There are four-story buildings on each side and a five-story building behind.
They were right in the open space in the middle of the "冂".
Originally this was a sun terrace with a clothesline, but now all the clothes drying space has been cleared, revealing the open space in the center.
In the open space, Gleipnir and Starworm had been waiting for a long time.
When they saw Angel and others coming, they immediately went to greet them.
The star worm asked if the materials were ready. Angel didn't say anything and directly handed him the bag full of materials. Then he walked past the star worm and came to the center of the open space.
Ingres had discovered before that there was a circular altar here.
From the words floating above the circular altar, we can know that this altar is a textual creation.
"Altar: A double-layered altar with an owl pattern carved on it..."
Look carefully.
This is a double-layered altar. The bottom layer has a diameter of two meters, while the top layer has a diameter of about forty-seven centimeters.
There are some bird-shaped carvings on the outer ring of the bottom layer. If you look closely, you can see that they are almost all different types of owls.
There is a grass owl with white spots on its back and a monkey-like face.
There are also fish owls with eyes wide open, flapping wings in the river, and holding a swimming fish in its mouth.
There is also a giant eagle owl flying through the sky with its wings spread to cover the sky.
Each type of owl is portrayed vividly, as if it really exists. Ingres roughly counted and found that there are about seven types of owls.
If you know something about owls, you will find that the staple food of these owls is exactly the materials that Ingres collected before.
The top floor of the altar, which is the inner circle, is empty and has no carvings. The only thing worth mentioning is that there is a round hole in the center of the inner circle, which seems to be used to insert something.
Overall, this double-tiered altar looks very exquisite.
Especially the carvings on the outer ring...
"I remember you said before that the altar required for the ceremony only required a double-layer altar, without any other requirements for decoration..." Angel looked at the star worm: "Why are all the altars carved with owl patterns now?"
Starworm paused for a moment and explained softly, "Because the ritual altar given before was simplified."
As for why it is simplified?
There are two reasons. First, they are worried that Ingres and his colleagues are not good at drawing. Instead of drawing randomly, it is better not to draw at all. Second, even if Ingres and his colleagues are able to draw carvings, Starworm is worried that the owl patterns they draw will not be standardized and formal.
For these two reasons, the Starbugs simplified the ritual.
The simplified ceremony itself would not have much impact. At most, there might be some damage when receiving the image of the Owl Train Conductor afterwards.
But the image itself is not particularly important, it is just a picture, as long as it does not affect the sound...
Starworm had considered everything very carefully, but who would have expected that this world was actually a world of words, where things could be created directly with just a description in words and a little imagination.
The altar did not need to be prepared by Angel and others. Gleipnir directly handed the special paper to the Starworm and asked him to build the altar.
Although it was the first time for Starworm to use text creation, with Gleipnir's demonstration and the "text descriptions" of other text creations around him, the process of building the altar was not difficult.
It only took one try to successfully build the simplified altar.
Because there were extra special paper pages, Starworm thought about trying the original altar.
He had seen the original altar... Although with his craftsmanship, he certainly couldn't replicate the original altar, but writing creations didn't require craftsmanship, only written descriptions and imagination were needed.
In this situation, Starworm pushed down the simplified altar and began to vigorously build the original altar.
After about two or three attempts, he successfully created the original altar.
Not only are the patterns lifelike, but even the structure of the carvings and the proportions of the inner and outer circles of the altar are perfect.
"That's it..." Starworm explained a little embarrassedly: "I don't doubt your ability, I just think that the simplified version of the altar is faster to prepare."
"But who knew that writing could be so convenient."
Angel could see the evasiveness in the Starworm's eyes... Although he said he had no doubts, the Starworm still doubted their drawing ability.
But this is normal. After all, we are all strangers and don’t know each other. Simplifying things as much as possible is a kind gesture.
"Since everything is ready, let's hold the ceremony before daybreak."
This ceremony needs to be held on a cloudy day or at night, which is just right now.
After Laplace finished speaking, he looked towards Starworm.
Starworm pointed at himself: "Me?"
Laplace nodded.
Starworm thought for a moment and said, "I can help prepare the ritual, but I need to temporarily step aside before the last step of activating the Hidden World Card."
The information hidden in the Hidden World Card involves extremely secret matters.
The fact that the Owl Train Captain did not tell the Starworm at the beginning, but kept it in the Hidden World Card, means that the Starworm is not qualified to know this matter at present.
Therefore, after the Hidden World Card is activated, the Starworms must be avoided.
Not only did the starworms need to avoid it, but his eyes also turned to Angel and Gleipnir, as if asking them to avoid it as well.
However, Laplace said calmly: "No need to avoid me, I don't mind."
"You too, if you want to listen, you don't have to avoid it." Laplace looked at the starworm.
Starworm shook his head violently. He could be curious about other things, but he had to be cautious about things related to the Star Sea Train.
The conductor must have had his reasons for not telling him.
Therefore, even if Laplace invited him, he would refuse.
Seeing the Starworm's resistance, Laplace didn't say anything, but said calmly: "You can avoid it, but avoid it here."
The starworm was stunned for a moment and hadn't come to its senses yet.
Then he saw Gleipnir not far away, picked up the special paper and wrote a few words quickly.
The specially made paper pages immediately turned into constantly inspiring words, and with a flash of light, a transparent glass room appeared on the roof.
"Soundproof room: A partition made of transparent glass, which has a soundproof effect but does not block the view..."
"Just in case, you should stay here." Gleipnir said softly.
After all, this ritual is said to activate the Hidden World Card, but who knows if it is true?
If there is anything abnormal in this ritual, we must not let the starworms go. If we have to go into the water, then let's go together.
Starworm also understood their concerns at this time. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded: "Then I will stay in here later..."
At worst, I can just close my eyes and turn around, so I won’t hear it.
After the decision was made, the next step was to arrange the ceremony.
Starworm placed the ritual items prepared by Angel on the altar one by one.
The first thing put on was the "non-inactivated branch" that Angel had found, and the starworm inserted it into the hole in the inner ring.
Next, the star worm hung seven different objects on the branches in order.
In the blink of an eye, the branch inserted in the inner ring turned into a strange little tree covered with different props.
Bird blood, insects, live fish, mushrooms, bird eggs, snakes, leaves... just correspond to the seven different owls in the outer ring, namely the bird-eating barn owl, the insect-eating osprey owl, the fish-eating fish owl, the fungus-eating grass owl, the egg-eating night owl, the snake-eating giant eagle owl, and the leaf-eating leaf owl.
Starworm took every step very carefully and devoutly.
After doing all this, there is only one last step left.
Place the Hidden World Card on the top of the strange tree and use any energy to stimulate the roots of the strange tree to activate the hidden information in the Hidden World Card.
At this point, the Starworm stopped moving and looked towards Laplace.
Laplace didn't hesitate, picked up the Hidden World Card and inserted it into the top of the branch.
Then, he used the illusion node borrowed from Angel to stimulate the roots of the strange little tree.
When she finished this series of actions, the small tree in the altar seemed to come alive and slowly began to glow from the bottom.
This light represents the remaining activity in the branches.
The active light continued to rise and soon reached the sacrifice. Every time it passed a sacrifice, the phantom of an owl would appear out of thin air.
The barn owl soars into the sky, the stork owl forages for food, the fish owl dives...
The phantom only existed for a second before slowly dissipating.
After all seven different kinds of owls were presented, the active light seemed to have a more mysterious charm.
When this mysterious light reached the top of the tree branch and entered the hidden world of Kali.
The Hidden World Card, which had been silent all this time, began to emit faint fluctuations. Then, the phantom of an owl with a long beard appeared above the Hidden World Card.
