"what have you done?!"
The clown exclaimed, and stared at Gleipnir with a stunned expression.
Gleipnir did not reply, but just looked at the clown with calm eyes.
After the deathly silence.
The Joker's arrogant smile turned into a dark silence.
"Why can your body still move on its own?" The clown narrowed his eyes: "Could it be that you let the special form of the monster's consciousness control your body?"
"wrong……"
"The underground ritual can detect all the rituals in your body and pull you into the 'dream'. Even if you have two consciousnesses in one body, the other consciousness will be pulled into the dream."
"But now, why..."
"Why……"
The clown kept asking himself questions while staring at Gleipnir and questioning him.
Gleipnir still didn't answer, but she now understood that Angel should have already controlled his body.
Fortunately, there were two people this time, and Ingres was among them.
If she came alone, she would definitely be tricked by the Carnival Night Clown!
"Tell me, why is your body..." The clown rushed to Gleipnir with his mouth as if torn apart, and stretched out his hands as if trying to strangle her neck.
Gleipnir didn't dodge or evade, but just looked at the clown quietly.
The next second, the clown's hand did not touch Gleipnir, but passed through her neck.
He stumbled, lost his balance, and pounced on Gleipnir. But Gleipnir still did not dodge and let the clown pounce on him.
Like an illusory shadow, it intersects with Gleipnir.
The Joker cannot touch Gleipnir. It's like they are in different dimensions. They can only see each other but cannot touch each other.
"As expected." Gleipnir's eyes flashed with realization.
She had felt vaguely strange before. If the Joker could really control himself perfectly, why would he trick her into doing the destruction herself?
Couldn't it destroy the ritual in its "dream" itself?
Then, Gleipnir noticed that there was no shadow under the clown's feet.
At first I thought it was because he was facing the HMI lamp and his shadow was obscured. Later, when he moved, there was still no shadow.
At this time, Gleipnir had already suspected that the clown might not have a real body in this "dream game". It was not until it pounced on him and crossed his body that Gleipnir finally confirmed that the clown had not entered the "dream game".
To put it bluntly, this "dream game" is Gleipnir dreaming, it is Gleipnir's dream.
Although the clown has a certain degree of interference in Carnival Night, it is impossible for it to become the master.
It projected its own projection into Gleipnir's dream, but this projection was false.
As long as you realize this.
In this dream game, the Carnival Night Clown will no longer have any power to interfere with Gleipnir.
However, the lack of interference does not mean that Gleipnir can completely control the dream, and she still cannot wake up on her own. But it doesn't matter, Gleipnir is not alone this time.
……
Time goes back a few seconds.
When Gleipnir asked Angel to take over her body, Angel subconsciously prepared to activate the Nightmare Node.
However, looking at "Gleipnir" controlled by the clown, he stood up on his own and wandered in the dark, as if looking for something.
Angel's heart moved and he did not take over the body immediately.
Previously, Gleipnir said in the private chat channel that the one controlling her body now was the Carnival Night Clown, and it was planning to use Gleipnir to modify the ritual.
Although Gleipnir didn't know what the so-called ritual was, Angel guessed that this so-called ritual was most likely the ritual to seal the Carnival Night Clown.
According to the original information from Wonderland, the Carnival Night Clown was sealed in the darkness.
Wonderland Information used the word "seal", which means that the Carnival Night Clown cannot move easily.
And for the Carnival Night Clown, the biggest wish is definitely to break the seal.
Then its intention to control Gleipnir's body is very clear. It cannot influence the material world by itself, and can only use Gleipnir's body to break the seal.
Since it has this intention, after it controls Gleipnir's body, it will definitely look for the location of the "ritual".
Angel did not take over Gleipnir's body immediately because he thought of this.
He just checked every corner of the Dark Room from a God's perspective. The Dark Room had completely turned into the "cellar" of the outside world, and there was no abnormality at all.
Where was the Carnival Night Clown sealed? Angel didn't find it either.
And now, the Carnival Night Clown controls Gleipnir's body and wants to modify the sealing ceremony. This also gives Angel a reminder: I can't find it, but the Carnival Night Clown himself will definitely find it.
With this thought in mind, Angel silently observed the controlled "Gleipnir" from a God's perspective.
As expected, Gleipnir began to wander in the dark, as if looking for something. After about two or three seconds, she seemed to have found something.
Step by step, he walked into the shadow of the southeast corner.
She stared at the shadow underground, as if she could see the sealed blind spot hidden underneath through the shadow... As long as she destroyed this blind spot, the ritual would go out of control and it would escape.
She excitedly reached out her hand, ready to dig up the soil underground...
But after she dug a little, her body suddenly became unable to move.
In the face of Gleipnir's astonishment, Angel activated the nightmare illusion left in her mind space and took over her body.
No surprises.
The absolute power of Nightmare suppressed the meager consciousness of the "Carnival Night Clown" and successfully regained control of the body.
The Carnival Night Clown is very powerful, but it is sealed, and the consciousness that can be revealed is very weak.
This weak consciousness had to maintain Gleipnir's "dream game" while controlling her body. This also made the consciousness in the body even weaker, almost to the point of being called "weak consciousness".
Therefore, facing Angel's "strong consciousness" control, the Carnival Night Clown had no ability to resist and was completely suppressed.
Not even a single splash of water could be created.
Angel originally wanted to use Nightmare to read the clown's remaining consciousness after taking over Gleipnir's body to see if he could find any clues. But the consciousness it left in Gleipnir's body was extremely weak, and there was no way to read it, and even communication was impossible.
Although there is no way to read its consciousness, it doesn’t matter, he already knows where the "seal" is.
Yes, right in the shadow of this corner.
When Angel scanned the area from a God's perspective, he actually scanned this place, but didn't find anything.
However, when the Carnival Night Clown controlled Gleipnir's body to come here and dug the soil on the ground with his hands, Angel sensed a familiar fluctuation here.
——The fluctuation of power.
Beneath the covered soil lies the fluctuation of the power of the fairyland!
As long as there is a fluctuation of power, it means that there is "fairyland information" below!
Angel had sensed the power fluctuations before, and immediately activated the Nightmare Node and took over Gleipnir's body. Therefore, he had no time to intercept the fairyland information.
Now, confirming that there is no way to "communicate" with the Joker, nor to analyze the Joker's residual consciousness, Angel turned his attention to the fluctuations of power.
Information, intercepted!
With the activation of the wonderland power, Angel successfully intercepted information from the ground.
"Sealing Ritual Between Lightlessness"
"Abigail Barbosa, the carnival night clown that wreaked havoc in the dark corner, lost to a girl from the human world in a gamble. Under the threat of the honey trap, it was forced to choose to be sealed and isolated, drifting away from the dark corner. It only hopes to successfully reach the human world and fulfill the bet with the girl."
"After the sealing ritual descends upon the world, it will automatically be unsealed in twenty-four hours."
"Unblocking countdown: 23:56:31"
"Unblocking countdown: 23:56:30"
"..."
When Angel finished reading the information about Wonderland, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
From the overview information, we can know that this Carnival Night Clown actually chose to seal himself and took the initiative to peel off from the dark corner...and the reason for all this was to fulfill a girl's bet?
Moreover, according to the explanation of the text information, if no one takes the initiative to continue the sealing ritual, the ritual will be unsealed automatically after 24 hours.
In other words, as long as the Carnival Night Clown reaches the "human world" and no one stops it, it will eventually be unsealed.
It controls Gleipnir to help unlock the seal, but it is just an accelerated process.
After reading the summary information, Angel had more questions in his mind, especially the so-called "human girl", which seemed to imply that there were humans in the dark corners.
And this human being comes from the human world.
Most importantly, the "name" of the Carnival Night Clown was also marked in the Wonderland information.
This is unusual.
It was the first time that Angel knew the real name of the fashion monster.
Angel's eyes flickered, he had some guesses in his mind, opened the "private chat channel" and contacted Gleipnir.
After the contact was completed, Angel turned his attention back to the wonderland information.
At the bottom of this fairyland message, there is actually another message: "To be viewed: Sealing ritual formation diagram"
This should be the core of the sealing ritual.
Angel silently opened the formation diagram and began to study it.
……
On the other side, Gleipnir, who was in a dream, had received Angel's private message.
This private message contains all the information about the "Sealing Ritual in the Lightless Space" discovered by Angel.
After reading all the information, Gleipnir saw a question from Angel: "This is the first time that the fairyland information has marked the real name of the fashion monster. I feel it's a bit strange."
"The only information I can think of about this dungeon's name is the NPC information."
"Perhaps, the Carnival Night Clown in the Darkness is also an NPC? A special NPC with the identity of a fashion monster?"
After making this guess, Angel said to Gleipnir, "Is the Carnival Night Clown still in your 'dream'? Remember its name and see if there is any NPC information displayed."
To see NPC information, you need to complete three prerequisites:
First, this NPC is very special and has a mission background.
The second is to see this NPC in person.
Third, know the name of the NPC.
And now, Gleipnir met two of the conditions. The Carnival Night Clown was in front of her, and she knew his name.
If the Carnival Night Clown really has a "mission background" granted by the power of Wonderland, then she should be able to see the corresponding NPC information.
However, it is not necessarily.
Because Gleipnir was not in the real world at this time, she could not even see the "text column" in the woven "dream".
It is very likely that the fairyland information cannot reach her dream, resulting in the inability to see NPC information.
But Gleipnir still planned to give it a try according to Angel's suggestion.
If you really can't see any information, then the worst that can happen is... just ask directly.
Angel can't communicate with the Carnival Clown, but she can.
With this thought in mind, Gleipnir silently repeated its real name "Abigail Barbosa" in his heart, while turning his head to look at the Carnival Night Clown with a nearly crazy look in his eyes.
At the moment when Gleipnir matched the name with the Carnival Night Clown, she saw text messages floating above the Carnival Night Clown's head.
Although these text messages cannot reach the "text column", they are indeed displayed!
This sealed Carnival Night Clown is really an NPC!
"Abigail Barbosa"
"Abigail Barbosa is an idealistic and ambitious carnival clown. She believes that she is the most special monster of destiny because, apart from herself, she has not encountered any other intelligent fashion monsters in the dark corner. Just when Abigail thought that she could occupy an entire dark corner with her excellent wisdom, she met a girl named "Paipai" and fell into the girl's honey trap!"
"Contacting Abigail Barbosa may trigger the side quest "Unfulfilled Bet"."
After reading Abigail Barbosa's NPC information, Gleipnir looked a little strange.
This fashion monster is actually related to... Paipai.
Who is Paipai?
When Starworm completed the first rumor mission, he received a hint for a main mission. The hint said: "When did the Prada beauty pageant, a legendary media that once attracted thousands of people, begin to fall? Someone did some research and found that there were many factors that led to the fall of Prada Media, including the death of the old president, the disappearance of key members, and the targeting of Tina Entertainment... But which factor was the most important? That was naturally the disappearance of Paipai."
At that time, Starworm and Gleipnir were both confused. Who was the "Paipai" in this hint?
After a series of inquiries, they finally confirmed the identity of "Paipai".
She is the daughter of the former chairman of Prada Media.
She also owns the only Carnival Night Clown of Prada Media!
The reason why Prada Media fell so quickly was because Paipai and a group of key members disappeared while exploring a certain mission.
Originally, Prada Media had a chance to turn things around thanks to the "Carnival Night Clown".
But Paipai’s disappearance became the last straw that broke the camel’s back.
