"This instance is rated E, which isn't high, but we still need to be careful."
Angel gave one last piece of advice before preparing to say goodbye to Kemai.
"My lord, Darkman..." Just a second before the telepathic communication was about to end, Kemai hesitated for a long time before finally asking.
Angel: "He has already gone to find his teammates, and you should meet him soon if nothing unexpected happens."
Although Kermaine had anticipated this, a complex emotion still flashed in her eyes when she confirmed that Darkman would indeed enter the instance.
"I understand, thank you, sir."
After saying goodbye to Kemai, Angell pulled his thoughts away from the miniature garden.
Next, he used his God-like perspective to investigate and found that Darkman had returned to Rabbit Town and was inviting his teammates to explore the dungeon together. The exploration team had a harmonious relationship, and Darkman's call was almost always answered.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it won't be long before Dakman leads his team into the Misty Forest.
Then, Angell glanced at the gray porcelain again.
Gray porcelain walked alone in the mist, its steps heavy and slow, as if carrying a heavy burden.
Judging from Gray Porcelain's occasional sighs, he was clearly filled with "anticipation" for the upcoming journey to the Echo Library.
As for the rest of the Dream Mirror team, they were already waiting at the players' camp.
There are ten minutes left until midnight.
Angor withdrew from his God's-eye view, then his consciousness faded, and his figure slowly disappeared from the Dream Crystal Plain.
Log off, open your eyes.
Angel originally planned to log off and then immediately log back on, set his location to the side of the gray porcelain, and travel with him back to the player camp.
However, as soon as he logged off, he heard Luigi chatting with his water clone.
Luigi has been taken offline?
Angor calculated the time and concluded that Luigi should have already completed his daily challenge and should indeed log off.
Now that he's offline, it's a good time to chat with Luigi about the Misty Forest.
After all, the Uriel instance is set in Dawn City, although it is far from the Misty Forest and may not have any connection; however, being in the same place, it might be possible to obtain some information.
If all else fails... there's always the "Sun and Moon Intelligence Agency."
Thinking of this, Angel decided to postpone going online and opened his eyes.
The moment Angel opened his eyes, Luigi and his water clone noticed him.
"Downing so early?" The water clone looked over curiously. "Shouldn't you guys be tackling the new levels by now, as usual?"
Luigi turned his head, his eyes questioning, "Does this mean the conquest of Golden City has failed?"
Angel shook his head: "We've already cleared Golden City. We'll start working on the new levels later."
"So, what's the point of you logging off now...?"
Angell: "Reset login coordinates."
Luigi and his water clones suddenly realized that logging off and back on would reset them to any coordinates, a permission operation that Angel often used.
"So, will you log on now?" Luigi: "Would you like me to play a tune and give you a blessing? With my blessing, go conquer the new level~"
Angel raised an eyebrow: "What, your blessing also has a beneficial effect?"
Luigi shrugged: "No buffs, but by taking my blessing song to the new level, I've made a small contribution to the rabbit hole in a way."
Angell: "If whispers in the ear count as a contribution, then many people have made contributions."
Luigi's expression fell: "Hey, how can my playing be ignored! Besides, my technique has improved a lot recently. Although it can't bring you any practical benefits, it can cultivate your character and fill your heart with sunshine."
"Bringing this good mood when you challenge the new level will definitely be a bonus, right?"
Seeing that Luigi was about to launch into another long-winded explanation, the water clone quickly interrupted, "Wait, it's almost midnight. Get Angel online first. We can talk about the performance later."
Luigi pursed his lips and muttered, "The celebratory performance afterward was just icing on the cake..."
Angell added quietly, "Actually, the performance before it started wasn't exactly a timely help."
Luigi: "..."
Just as Luigi was about to explode, Angel changed the subject: "I was just joking. I have something to tell you before I log off."
"Me?" Luigi pointed to himself.
Angel nodded: "Simply put, the Misty Swamp Forest dungeon has arrived."
"Misty Forest?" Luigi was completely bewildered. What did this instance have to do with him?
Angel: "Your main body should know the background information about the Misty Swamp Forest. I'll have it shared with you later, so I won't waste my breath."
"As for the information on the Misty Swamp Forest instance, I will use an illusion to show you the process later."
As Angel spoke, he raised his hand to manipulate the illusion node, organizing the general information about the Misty Swamp Forest, as well as its internal scenes and details.
Although Angor really wanted to explain to Luigi in person, considering that the game would be launched at midnight, he decided to present it as an illusion so that Luigi could see it himself later.
After creating the illusion, Angor added simply, "The location of the Misty Swamp instance is on the road between Dawn City and Evening Light Harbor. And the Wonderland instance itself is a reflection of reality..."
At this point, Luigi understood.
To clear the Misty Swamp Forest dungeon, you can not only search for the truth within the dungeon, but also seek the truth in reality with the help of external forces.
Coincidentally, the Uriel instance where Luigi is located contains several people who can be connected to the reality of Dawn City.
Uriel, Mr. Sun, Ms. Moon, Blanche, Camillo... all of these can influence the reality of Dawn City.
Even the challengers who fight Luigi every night are themselves dreamers, and might be able to obtain some information.
Therefore, Angel brought this up in the hope that Luigi would help him find information about the Misty Forest.
Luigi naturally had no objection to this.
Because he had been trapped in the Uriel instance for too long, he always felt guilty towards others... Laplace had not been able to assign powers because of him; when the population of Dream Crystals exploded, he was unable to help and had to rely on the Mist Spirits to regulate it; he was also unable to participate in the battles in the Sandbox Wonderland.
Therefore, when Angor asked him for help, Luigi was actually looking forward to it.
“Alright, leave this to me, I guarantee I’ll get it done!” Luigi raised his head. “I’ll find out the truth about the Misty Swamp Forest right outside, and get a perfect 100% completion without any pain!”
“Then I’ll leave it to you… I won’t stay any longer. If you want to know the details of the dungeon, use this.” Angell pointed to the crystal ball on the table.
This crystal ball is an illusion box he just created, containing information about the Misty Swamp Forest.
Luigi nodded and was about to say goodbye to Angel when suddenly, he remembered something and quickly called out to Angel, who was about to close his eyes: "By the way, I also have something I want to tell you!"
Angel raised an eyebrow: "What, are you going to play a blessing song again?"
Luigi snorted irritably, then said, "If you don't want to listen, I don't want to play either."
That's what they said, but Angel could tell that Luigi was a little down.
Angell thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth: "It's not that I don't want to listen, it's just that I'm worried about getting so engrossed in the music that I'll forget the time. After all, it's only a few minutes until midnight..."
Angel's sincere tone made Luigi feel a little embarrassed.
He turned his head away and said in a muffled nasal voice, "How could I be the kind of person who can't keep track of time... Never mind, let's get down to business so as not to delay you."
He turned his face to the side: "After tonight's duel, something happened..."
As usual, Luigi logs in early every night to enter the Uriel dungeon, waiting for challengers who want to obtain the title of "Star of the Green Fields".
After this period of intensive training, he has become adept at dealing with these challengers. Although there are occasionally a few strong individuals, none of them have been able to break through the Green Field City Wall that he has been holding firm.
Tonight will be the same.
Facing an academic musician wielding a harp, he used overwhelming power to shatter his opponent's Dao heart, causing him to disappear in tears.
Just as Luigi finished recording today's challenges with a smug look and was about to log off, the fog around the Uriel dungeon suddenly began to churn.
Similar signs of "swelling fog" appeared in the Uriel instance before. When the fog subsided, the streets of Merren outside Uriel's courtyard were also reflected in the fog.
In other words, the area of the Uriel instance has increased.
The fog was just as thick as before tonight, and Luigi wondered to himself: Could it be that the quantitative change he had accumulated from his recent battles had led to a qualitative change, causing the Uriel instance to expand again?
Soon, the churning of fog subsided.
Just as Luigi was preparing to receive the "new map," he discovered... there was nothing there.
There were no new neighborhoods, and nothing else changed.
Luigi searched Uriel's courtyard thoroughly, and even went to Mellen Street to find Blanche to search for the variable, but still found nothing.
In the end, we had to let it go.
"...That's just the way it is."
"My thought is that this surge of fog must have caused some kind of change, but I just haven't noticed it yet."
"So, I hope that when you have time, you can take a look at the Uriel instance from the perspective of the Little Garden. Perhaps you can find something there."
As soon as Luigi finished speaking, his water clone said, "He told me about this as soon as he logged off. I think it might just be a normal wind."
The wind rises and the fog rolls in, isn't that normal?
Luigi immediately shook his head: "Although I can't directly detect changes in the powers of the Celestial Realm like Angel, I still have a sense of the underworld."
"Ordinary celestial phenomena are different from today's fog surge!"
Angel nodded: "I understand, I'll go check it out later."
Luigi: "Thank you."
Angel waved his hand dismissively, then closed his eyes and drifted off into a deep sleep.
……
When Angell arrived at the athletes' camp, there were still two minutes until midnight.
He didn't conceal his figure, but his appearance didn't attract much attention because most people's eyes were fixed on the text column.
Everyone is waiting for the daily leaderboard update.
In addition, the fog had not yet dissipated, so few people paid attention to others.
Angell walked through the bustling crowd toward the area where the Dream Mirror was located.
Gray Porcelain had arrived, but he still looked somewhat listless, leaning lazily against the crystal pillar. Gabriel floated to the side and advised, "Since you can't resist, why not learn to accept it? Maybe you can even find something to enjoy in the process."
Gray Porcelain lowered his eyes and said in a muffled voice, "Eight out of ten people who enjoy danger already have graves erected."
"The remaining two are on their way to have their graves erected."
Angel had originally intended to come over and offer some words of comfort to Gray Porcelain, but seeing its anxious expression, he turned away and walked towards the rabbit girl.
He nodded to the rabbit girl, indicating that he had arrived.
Then Angell looked at Montedan beside him: "Where's Maggie?"
Montedan: "She said she wanted to learn about the local customs and culture of Dream Crystal Plains, and then she left... Judging from the direction she went, she probably went to Rabbit Town."
Angell nodded, not paying much attention.
Since Maggie couldn't go into the sandbox wonderland with them, she didn't care where she wanted to go.
No sooner had they finished speaking than a bright light suddenly flashed in the night sky, illuminating even the layers of mist.
Almost everyone in the athletes' camp looked up at the sky at the same time.
Although obscured by thick fog, one could still faintly see the myriad rays of light emanating from the floating island, like thousands of filamentary lamps lit in the sky.
Even in the hazy mist, this "sky lantern" presents an unusual and dreamlike beauty.
When everyone saw this "sky lantern," the text message bar started flooding with messages.
"A perfect clear record has been achieved for the six-tier puzzle level 'Golden Land'. The current level is now complete."
The Sandbox Wonderland ranking list has been updated.
Angel opened the leaderboard and took a look.
Unsurprisingly, Rabbit Hole remains firmly in first place with a score of 240.
The Singers team surpassed the previous day's second-place finisher, "Lord of Ten Thousand Games," and moved into second place with a score of 90.
The third place remains with the Lord of All Games, whose score has risen to 61 points. His score indicates that he also chose the Golden Land for his second challenge.
The final score is 20 points.
Not high, but at least there are points.
After that, Angel glanced at the list and stopped paying attention. As it stands, the two teams behind them are the only ones with a chance to dethrone them from first place.
However, once they clear the Library of Echoes, it will be virtually impossible for the Singer and the Lord of All Travels to catch up.
Right now, the contestant camp is still in the midst of the lively announcement of the results, but the bunny girl has already turned her attention to everyone:
"Now that we've looked at the leaderboard, it's time for us to go."
"Clear the level early, and lock in the battle early."
Angel nodded quietly, Gabriel roared excitedly, and only Gray Porcelain sighed helplessly, but also stood behind the rabbit girl.
"Don't worry, I won't put you in any danger." The rabbit girl walked over to Gray Porcelain and gently patted its shoulder.
Under the gentle reassurance of the team leader, Gray Porcelain's expression improved slightly, and she nodded gently: "Go in, go in. If we don't go in soon, I feel like I'll regret it."
Seeing that Gray Porcelain had cheered up, the Rabbit Girl smiled brightly: "Okay, let's go now!"
