Chapter 3869 Moon Eye
When Angel walked out of the Ruiyi Theater, there was a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Just now, he went to the Ruiyi Theater, met Alfred's "secret lover" Ms. Zoe, and had a "friendly" conversation.
Ms. Zoe confessed...or rather, she "enthusiastically" told Angel all the information she knew.
After listening to it, Ingres suddenly realized that there was a reason why Ms. Zoe was listed as a purple light group together with Sisley, Vera, and the half-human, half-duplicate.
If Sisley was the beginning of everything, Vera was the instigator of the intelligence, and the half-human, half-dummy was the key person in taking that step, then Ms. Zoe was the driving force behind the scenes.
Why do you say that?
Just imagine, Zuniga is a powerful high-level magician. He has traveled around the continent for more than ten years, and even with the bonus status of "Call of the Dark Corner", he still hasn't found a way to enter the Dark Corner.
According to the "Alfred Intelligence Collection", Alfred was just an intermediate magician and did not serve as a "wise general" in the Dark Round Table. He disappeared in the same year he met Sisley, which means that he had entered the dark corner in just one year.
He didn't even have the "Call of the Dark Corner", but he still found the dark corner before Zuniga. How did he do that?
Angel didn't understand it before, but now he understands that Alfred relies on... Ms. Zoe, the driving force behind the scenes!
……
The rain is still falling like cotton wool.
Ingres found a pavilion near the Ruiyi Theater to rest for a while.
Through the hollow door railing, Ingres stared at the neon lights becoming clearer and clearer in the rain outside, and a glass-like glow was reflected in his pupils.
If you ignore the fact that this is polluted acid rain, this scene is actually quite beautiful.
"What are your plans next?" While taking a rest and enjoying the rain, Angel contacted Gleipnir through the God's perspective.
At this time, Gleipnir was still in Prada Media, seemingly processing some documents.
Hearing Angel's voice, Gleipnir finally raised his head from his desk.
After stretching, he replied, "In addition to talent reserves and start-up funds, the third round of main tasks also includes many other projects. Although these projects are not difficult, they are tedious and time-consuming, and they must be dealt with."
"So, I'll deal with these first..." Gleipnir: "I'll check the accounts with Yusup and see what else can be used in the warehouse."
After all, Yusup had previously sold everything to maintain the company's operations, and many of the things he sold happened to be needed for this main mission.
Therefore, Gleipnir had to check the accounts quickly and, if possible, try to buy back those that had been sold.
"I definitely can't finish it today, so I'll just deal with some of it first and deal with the rest later." Gleipnir rubbed his swollen temples and said with a tired face, "I think it will only take me another half an hour before I'm ready to log off."
When online, he handles affairs, and when offline, he still has to deal with official business. Gleipnir gets a headache just thinking about it.
"What about you? What are you going to do later?" Gleipnir asked.
Angel: "I plan to open the Dark Corner dungeon."
"The Dark Corner dungeon?" Gleipnir said, "Have you made any progress? Do you know how to open the Dark Corner?"
Angel: "I guess so. I just finished the 'Disappearing Knight' mission, and then I received a new mission. I should be able to go to the dark corner according to the clues."
When Gleipnir heard that Angel had solved the "Knight's Missing Case", curiosity immediately flashed in her eyes. Although she was not involved in this case, she had been paying attention to it.
She still remembered what Angel had said before, that he was going to meet Ms. Zoe, and as a result, the mission was accomplished by just meeting her?
What is going on here?
Angel found the clues that the Knights couldn't find so easily?
Facing Gleipnir's curiosity, Angel said silently: "I used a little trick."
Gleipnir immediately realized that Ms. Zoe must have been controlled by Nightmare: "So what is the clue?"
Angel sighed: "It's not a special clue. It can only be said that Zoe's identity is somewhat special."
"What identity?"
"An artist during the day, and a Archbishop of the Dark Corner Cult at night."
Gleipnir: “???”
When Angel heard the news from Zoe, he was stunned for a few seconds. But after coming to his senses and thinking about it carefully, he felt that it made sense.
Ingres had heard of this sect when he was in the Hermitage, but he didn't pay much attention to it at the time.
Now that I have come into personal contact with it, I have discovered that this sect is very powerful and influential, with branches in almost every city.
This sect worships everything in the Dark Corner, believing that the Dark Corner is the origin of everything, and even that they, humans, originated from the Dark Corner.
Although the Dark Corner Cult is basically composed of a group of crazy believers, thanks to their huge organizational structure, they have also collected a large amount of information related to the Dark Corner from various cities.
If you were to ask who is most likely to know how to enter the Dark Corner, then it would undoubtedly be the Dark Corner Cult.
Ms. Zoe had come into contact with the Dark Corner Cult when she was still in Red Alley. In fact, the boss who brought her out of Red Alley was a guide of the Dark Corner Cult.
It was also at that time that Zoe joined the Dark Corner Cult.
After more than twenty years of ups and downs, Zoe climbed from an ordinary believer to the highest position in the Dark Corner Church in the Modern City branch: Archbishop.
It can be said that Zoe now controls all the resources of the Dark Corner Cult in Modern City.
Previously, Print Girl had mentioned a piece of news, saying that Zoe's private life was chaotic. Occasionally, in the middle of the night, a large number of male and female models would come to the Ruiyi Theater, and wealthy businessmen and celebrities would also visit. They would stay for the whole night and were suspected of holding illegal parties in it.
The truth is that it is indeed "illegal", but it is not a silver party, but a routine mass of the Dark Corner Cult.
Through chanting, praying, singing, fundraising and offering gifts, we praise the great protector "Moon Eye".
"Is Mooneye the god worshipped by the Dark Horn Cult?" Gleipnir asked doubtfully.
Angel: "No, the Dark Corner Cult doesn't have a god to worship. If anything, they worship the concept of 'Dark Corner'."
"As for Moon Eye, I asked Zoe, and she said that he is an extremely powerful being in the Dark Corner and one of the dozens of protectors of the Dark Corner Cult."
Gleipnir: "Since it is named the Protector, can the Moon Eye really protect the Dark Corner Cult?"
"Who knows?" Angel shrugged. "However, according to Zoe, although the protector Moon Eye cannot directly affect the world, it also brings a lot of convenience to the Dark Corner Cult."
For example, the purple light group that Angel saw before - the half-human, half-puppet in the underwater church, was the messenger sent by Moon Eye.
Angel gave a brief summary, and when Gleipnir didn't respond, he continued, "In short, Zoe played an indispensable role in Alfred's ability to find the dark corner."
If you think of finding dark corners as a tree-like game, where every fork is a choice, then most of them are invalid choices or wrong choices. There is only one correct choice, which leads to the dark corner.
No matter how hard a normal person tries to find a dark corner, he will end up making the wrong choice and will never be able to find the right path again.
Just like Zuniga, after more than ten years, there has been almost no progress.
But Alfred was different. Although he also faced a choice, with the secret help of Archbishop Zoe, he had an almost unimpeded journey. He chose the correct option every time and found the only way out at an extremely fast and astonishing speed.
Gleipnir: "Why did Zoe help Alfred? Or did Alfred know that Zoe was a member of the Dark Corner Cult and took the initiative to seek cooperation?"
Angel: "Alfred doesn't know Zoe's identity. As for why Zoe secretly helped Alfred, it was actually a coincidence..."
They were indeed secret lovers.
To be precise, Zoe knew Alfred's identity and deliberately approached him.
A perfect and sexy lady took the initiative to show her affection, which is probably irresistible for any man, and Alfred fell in love with her.
At that time, Zoe was thinking of using Alfred's identity to slowly get access to more information about the Dark Round Table... In fact, Zoe did get a lot of information, but she had been entangled with Alfred for many years. In the end, she couldn't tell whether she really stayed with Alfred for the information or because she fell in love with him.
Later, Alfred began to investigate the dark corners, and Zoe was a witness to it.
However, Zoe was still hesitant at the time, wondering whether she should help secretly, but after thinking it over again and again, she decided not to reveal herself.
until--
One day, when Zoe returned home, she found Alfred entering her secret room.
And in her secret room, there is a list of the believers.
Although the list did not explicitly mention that they were followers of the Dark Corner Cult, if Alfred investigated them one by one, he would definitely find clues.
If it were anyone else, Zoe would have killed them instantly.
But facing Alfred, who had slept with her for many years, Zoe hesitated.
After many days of frustration, Zoe finally made a decision: she would not kill Alfred, but she also could not allow Alfred to investigate the believers on the list; so, she decided to guide Alfred to the dark corner!
Anyway, Alfred himself was also looking for a dark corner that could satisfy his wishes without exposing the information of his followers.
At the same time, the Dark Corner itself is Zoe's ultimate pursuit. If Zoe had not been needed to preach in the present world, she would have already joined the Dark Corner.
In this case, by sending Alfred into a dark corner, she will also have a chance to reunite with Alfred in the future.
Therefore, Zoe, as the driving force behind the scenes, constantly guides Alfred's choices, allowing him to make the right decision every time.
When Alfred wanted to give up, Zoe kept encouraging and instigating him.
In the end, Alfred was sent into a dark corner step by step.
However, when Alfred was about to go to the dark corner, Zoe asked Alfred if he had seen the list.
Alfred's answer was: I entered the secret room, but I didn't touch anything inside, nor did I see the so-called list.
Zoe knew Alfred very well, and she knew from his subtle expression that he was telling the truth.
In other words, the issues she had been worried about being exposed on the list were actually her own inner drama.
Even though she knew the truth, the arrow had to be shot. Zoe moved her mouth, but she still did not stop Alfred from leaving...
"That's probably the situation. With Zoe's information, I roughly know how to activate the Dark Corner dungeon." Angel: "So, I plan to go to the Dark Corner to take a look later."
After a pause, Angel asked, "Do you want to go to the Dark Corner dungeon together?"
Gleipnir's eyes moved slightly, but after thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said, "Forget it. You go activate the copy first. I won't go."
Although she was also curious about what was happening in the dark corner, considering that there were many things to do online and offline, she decided to put it aside for the time being.
Anyway, you can go there anytime after the copy is activated, so it won’t take too long.
Angel: "Okay, I'll go take a look first."
After disconnecting from Gleipnir, Angel wanted to ask Zuniga.
But when he saw Zuniga already seriously painting graffiti in the underground tunnel, he gave up temporarily.
His idea was the same as Gleipnir's. After all, the instance was activated and could be opened anytime later. It wouldn't matter if Zuniga was called along later.
Moreover, the scope of the dark corner is extremely large. He wants to find the lost city of Omo and complete the side quest "Bloody Throne", which would be difficult without coordinate clues.
As for the clues to the coordinates of Omo City, the man from the mountains that Zuniga is about to meet most likely knows them.
Therefore, let Zuniga meet with the man of the mountains first. After obtaining the information, the next time Angel enters the dark corner, there will be a chance to complete the "Bloody Throne".
Therefore, there is no need to bring Zuniga into a dark corner so early. By then, they won’t even know where Omo City is. Wouldn’t it be like groping in the dark if they go to the dark corner?
Thinking of this, Angel stopped contacting Zuniga and looked at the road, heading towards the South Third District.
He was indeed planning to open the Dark Corner dungeon, and even wanted to take a walk inside the Dark Corner.
But before that, he has to go to Modern Middle School to complete the task of "Miss Halloween", and meet with Com on the way to borrow his luck to draw the card.
He is now in South District 13, which is adjacent to South District 3.
And the adjacent location is not far from Modern Middle School.
He took the circular train to the South Third District and then went to Modern Middle School, which might be slower than walking directly.
After covering his body with the nightmare illusion, Angel stepped into the rain curtain that was like smoke and fog.
After walking for about five minutes, passing a park covered with holographic flower and grass projections, Ingres arrived at the South Third District.
Just as he continued to move forward, suddenly, the Nightmare Node that remained on Gleipnir's side suddenly moved.
Angel did not stop, but continued to move forward, looking at Gleipnir from a God's perspective.
"what happened?"
Gleipnir didn't look up, but continued to compare documents at his desk, saying, "Nothing. I just talked to you and asked Abigail about it."
"I asked it if it knew about the 'Moon Eye', and it told me some information."
"According to it, if the 'Moon Eye' mentioned by Zoe is really a powerful existence in the dark corner, then in Abigail's impression, the one who best fits this name may be a level master - Phantom Moon Eye."
