Chapter 3789 Glory Overwhelms Me
The platform of the Silver Wing Express.
Compared to the previous time I came here, the platform is now crowded with people.
More than half of them did not really want to take the train, but simply came to avoid the rain.
Angel stood behind the crowd, but no one noticed him. Even if someone passed by him, no one noticed anything unusual.
There is no doubt that Angel's body is full of nightmares.
Even the mechanical patrol dog couldn't sense Angel hiding in the nightmare.
Angel stood silently behind the crowd waiting for the Silver Wing Express to arrive.
While waiting, Angel was also investigating the situation on Gleipnir's side.
As expected, Gleipnir entered the mission challenge space the moment the female ghost in the white dress disappeared.
Guided by the fluctuations of power, Angel has seen Gleipnir's current situation from a God's perspective: she is in a cramped room, observing the situation around her.
Ingres took a quick look around the room, which was littered with messy papers. Each sheet of paper had a fashion design on it, but most of the designs were crumpled into balls and thrown on the floor.
Obviously, the original owner of this room had an unusual pursuit for design, but no matter how he designed it, it seemed that it could not meet his expectations.
The messy strokes on the design drawings on the table reveal some of the personality traits of the owner of the room: madness, twistedness, and paranoia.
In particular, Angel also saw a lot of design drawings with blood stains.
It is even more certain that the original owner of the room had an extreme personality.
If you pull the view further out, you can see that this room is on the fourth floor of a building.
Below the building is the lakeside corridor in the Sona neighborhood... From a distance, you can see the rippling water below.
As for places further away, you can't see them.
This mission challenges the space, which is just the building and the lake. Even in the building, there is only one room with lights on, and the rest are all empty and dark.
This is the mission challenge space, and it won't give you any extra information.
After looking at the situation inside and outside the room, Angel finally fixed his eyes on the fairyland information surrounding Gleipnir.
After Angel's skillful operations of intercepting and analyzing, the complete information of the wonderland appeared before his eyes.
"Random mission "Please let the glory overwhelm me""
"Task Overview: Anna is a fashion designer. She is vain and paranoid. She wants to be famous so much that she wants to go crazy. In her opinion, the "Style Contest" that is now popular in the entire Modern City is her chance to realize her dream. But opportunities are always given to those who are well prepared, not to those who are talentless and noisy. Seeing that her dream is about to fade away, she is desperate and is attracted by the "faceless monster" under the water. Holding the returned design drawing, she walks into the lake step by step..."
"Mission objective: Draw a unique fashion design within the time limit, regardless of any conditions. After the design is completed, sink the design into the lake. If it can comfort Anna's ghost, it will be considered a success."
"Countdown: 11:59:12"
"Countdown: 11:59:11"
"..."
After reading the overview of this random task, Angel finally understood why this challenge space only had one room and one lake.
The room is the "examination room", the lake is the "examiner", and Gleipnir is the only "examinee".
From the overview, Ingres can basically imagine the story of a paranoid lady who wants to be famous, but is finally attracted by the fashion monster "Faceless Monster" and jumps into the river.
It is even possible that the female ghost in the white dress that Gleipnir saw before was Anna in the story.
This also explains why she appeared by the lake.
Because Anna herself died by jumping into the lake.
However, the story background is not important. What is important is the fashion monster attracted by this mission and the difficulty of this mission.
"Faceless monster." Angel murmured in a low voice. He had heard of the name of this fashion monster. It was a low-level fashion monster in the style series.
But Angel had no idea about any other information beyond that, or what abilities it might possess.
However, as a low-level fashion monster, the intensity of its mission should not be too difficult.
Moreover, from the information in Wonderland, we can know that the goal of this mission is to test...clothing creativity.
The so-called "unique" design is actually a competition of creativity.
"This test shouldn't be too difficult for Gleipnir...right?" Angel thought to himself.
After all, Gleipnir was knowledgeable, and she and Laplace shared memories, so she could also see the scenes that Laplace saw in the Sea of Mirrors.
The Sea of Empty Mirror is connected to the projection of the pan-dimensional plane. The intelligent life in each world is dressed differently and has its own style.
As long as Gleipnir plagiarizes a little, he should be able to complete the task.
Angel thought about this and asked Gleipnir for his opinion.
At this time, Gleipnir, who was in the mission challenge space, nodded gently: "If I just draw the clothes I have seen before, it shouldn't be difficult."
"But the only thing to note is that the completion mechanism of this task is relatively subjective."
Like other tasks, as long as the task standards are met, it is considered completed.
However, this mission would only be completed if "Anna" approved it. Gleipnir was not quite sure what Anna's approval criteria were and what the standards were.
If her standards are too high, or she already has a favorite style and must design in this favorite style to meet the standards, then this task will be relatively difficult.
Angel stroked his chin and thought, "It's just a challenge from a low-level fashion monster. It shouldn't be so complicated, right?"
Gleipnir: "Whether it's complicated or not, you'll know once you try it."
Having said that, Gleipnir sat down at the table, picked up a pen and paper, and began to copy... no, design.
Although it was her first time to draw a fashion design, she was not unfamiliar with painting, her brushstrokes were smooth and beautiful, and her sketching skills were very good. This was also due to Gleipnir's profession. When she used to tell fortunes for people, she didn't want to reveal their fate, so she would use painting as a hint.
With just a few strokes, Gleipnir sketched out the general outline of the costume.
Angel took one look and guessed the prototype of Gleipnir's design.
——The style of the Southern Territory wizards.
However, it was a popular style ten thousand years ago, and was similar to the robes worn by the Wise Lord. It was just a little more gorgeous than the robes of the Wise Lord, with some church stained glass elements.
Loose but not exaggerated, mysterious but solemn.
This is a retro-style wizard robe.
From Ingres's perspective, it is also a good design, but I wonder if Anna will like this design?
……
Angel boarded the Silver Wing Express to the central area.
Compared to the crowd hiding from the rain on the platform, there were much fewer people on the train. Angel found a seat and sat down. There was no one around him. Even without the Nightmare Illusion cover, no one would notice him in a short time.
On the other side, in the challenge space.
Gleipnir, who designed the costume draft in less than five minutes, also opened the door of the room for the first time.
Walk down the dark stairs.
While going downstairs, Gleipnir tried to explore other rooms in the building, but the other rooms could not be opened at all.
It was as if just the outline of a "door" was drawn on the wall.
After trying in vain, Gleipnir had no choice but to go downstairs along the same route.
After exiting the corridor, one should be able to see the street view outside, but at this moment, all Gleipnir could see was a small path with street lights on.
The path continues all the way to the lake.
As for other places, there was only a thick black mist rising. Gleipnir tried to find his way out of the path, but there was no way.
The dark places are like no map modeling.
Guided by the street lamps, Gleipnir walked through the corridor in the center of the lake and came to the shore of the pavilion in the center of the lake.
Standing on the shore and looking into the water.
A pale human face can be vaguely seen.
Although the face was slightly distorted, the basic outline remained unchanged. Gleipnir recognized it at a glance. This was the ghost girl in the white dress...
Sure enough, the female ghost in the white dress seen outside before was Anna.
Looking at Anna's pale face underwater and her dark eyes filled with resentment, Gleipnir loosened his hand and let the design slowly fall.
As the design floated on the water, Anna's pale ghost hand reached out from under the lake and pulled the design into the water.
Gleipnir thought about the title of this mission, hesitated for a moment, stroked his chest and whispered:
“May the glory overwhelm you…”
In less than five seconds, the design draft floated up from the water.
A large black X appeared on the design of the retro-style Southern Domain wizard robe.
Gleipnir stared at the "X" in silence. After a long while, he turned around and left. Only a faint whisper seemed to remain in the wind: "Why doesn't glory drown you?"
Angel: "..."
I don't know if Anna heard the whisper, but Angel did.
While going upstairs, Gleipnir said to the air, "What do you think of my design?"
Angel: "It looks great. If you don't mind, I will use Nightmare Illusion to simulate the same look on myself next time."
Although Ingres did not systematically study fashion design, he understood beauty and ugliness.
At least in his opinion, this wizard robe is not bad. Except for the slightly exaggerated color, the rest is quite in line with his aesthetic.
Gleipnir: "This is a copy. If you want to imitate it, just imitate it. But since you think it's good, why doesn't she approve of it?"
Gleipnir looked puzzled. "Could it be that she has already found a style she likes?"
With this question in mind, Gleipnir returned to the room, began to unravel the paper balls on the floor, and analyzed Anna's previous design draft.
This analysis is just that, an analysis.
Nothing was analyzed.
Because Anna's design drafts do not have a particularly fixed style, she seems to add whatever elements she thinks of to the clothes, which is quite a stream of consciousness.
It's just that she mixed a lot of different styles, which made her designs lose their distinctiveness and became imitators of other styles.
"I can't see any particular style. It's just a hodgepodge." Gleipnir looked at dozens of different paper balls, but in the end he found it to be completely useless.
Looking at the hundreds of paper balls on the ground, Gleipnir hesitated whether to open them again.
At this time, Angel's voice came in: "No need to open all of them. I've checked them for you. Your judgment is correct. There is no fixed style in Anna's design draft."
"However, you can open the design draft that is under the fallen pencil case on the left side of the trash can."
Although Gleipnir was confused, he still followed Angel's instructions and opened the design.
When she saw the design inside, she immediately understood what Ingres meant.
The main body of this design is the divine robe, which incorporates many elements. Gleipnir actually saw elements of the "Southern Realm Wizard Robe" in it.
Gleipnir: "Has anyone in Modern City designed a wizard's clothing style?"
Angel: "It's possible. After all, there are many wizards who like to explore new planes."
Wizards can be seen in many worlds...
Even in the world of panic, which is far beyond the boundless space and time, there are wizards building cities there, which shows how much wizards like to "wander".
Therefore, it is possible that a wizard may have been to the world where Modern City is located.
Since the wizarding style already exists, Gleipnir's design of this element does not meet the prerequisite of "unique style".
Being given an "X" by Anna seemed to be a matter of course.
Thinking of this, Gleipnir suddenly understood. Since the wizard element didn't work, then he could try other elements. Anyway, she had seen many civilized costumes, and it was impossible for the Modern City to have them all.
With this hope in mind, Gleipnir began designing again.
Angel had already gotten off the Silver Wing Express and quickly located several sewer openings leading to the underground block. There was even an entrance to the underground block inside the Silver Wing platform.
However, Angel did not choose to enter the underground block immediately, but instead walked out of the platform.
It was still drizzling outside.
The smell of acid rain is very strong, with a hint of heavy metals. This shows how serious the pollution in Modern City is.
There was no one on the street, only thin puddles of water, ripples from the rain, and the neon lights that never turned off 24 hours a day.
These neon colors are reflected on the water, giving it an industrial beauty.
Under the cover of nightmare, Angel walked into the rain. His target this time was Tina Entertainment. Because Zuniga was sleeping under a building near Tina Entertainment.
I don't know what kind of fashion monster is targeting Zuniga this time? Maybe it's a rare monster, or even a monster that doesn't exist in the modern city?
With curiosity and anticipation, Angel walked quickly to where Zuniga was without stopping.
