Chapter 4243 Fire Emblem
Angell made such a confident judgment that collecting the "Triangle Magic Array" would yield the "Star." Reasoning accounted for half of it, but more importantly... it was his God's-eye view that allowed him to see it.
For the rabbit girl, all she could see was the study in front of her.
But Ingres, with his God's-eye view, saw the hidden space in the study.
Something is hidden in the hidden space.
Among them is a star core with "Disintegration" magic patterns engraved on its corners.
But upon seeing the "star" in the hidden space, and recalling the prefix in the title of the Triangle Magic Array series, Angel deduced the general situation.
However, at this moment, "stars" are not important.
“The significance of embedding holes lies in giving the triangular magic array different effects.” Angell: “Embedding a ‘star’ represents breaking the magic array; but if other corners are embedded, the effect of the magic array may be changed accordingly.”
The rabbit girl pondered for a moment, then said softly, "You mean, there's more than just 'stars' here; there are other things that can affect the external triangular magic circle?"
Angell affirmed, "That's right."
The rabbit girl turned to look at the bookshelf, a hint of inquiry flashing in her eyes: "If I choose three books related to 'Triangle Magic Circle,' I'll unlock a 'star.' So, if I choose other series of books, will I unlock the corresponding items?"
Angell's voice carried a hint of amusement: "It seems you understand."
Rabbit Girl: "Which books should I choose?"
Angell: "I can't make an accurate judgment either, but I have an idea."
"Before I share my thoughts, I'd like to ask you: what do you think is the purpose of that troll's appearance in this trial?"
"Or rather, do you think the ultimate purpose of the test is related to this troll? If so, what do you think it would be?"
The rabbit girl frowned slightly and said slowly, "This test might be to make me defeat that troll? No, not maybe, I think the answer is that I have to fight that troll."
The reason is that the Wonderland hint explicitly stated: "You can choose to directly awaken the troll, or enter the painting to find more clues."
This sentence alone was enough to awaken the troll.
According to Angor, the troll is in a state of extreme emotion, and once awakened, the only option is to fight it.
Furthermore, since this dark space has no exit, there is only one possibility for her battle with the troll: a fight to the death.
Therefore, we can tell from the first sentence of the question that the fairy realm is hinting that she will awaken the trolls no matter what, and the result of awakening them will be a battle!
“I share your thoughts,” Angor replied affirmatively. “I also believe that a battle between you and the trolls is inevitable.”
“However,” Angor changed the subject, “the test in the white circle is a test of knowledge; it’s impossible for you to actually fight a wizard-level troll.”
Keep in mind that even the Dow Jones Magician that Gabriel was facing at this time was not yet at the wizard level.
If the opponents in the combat-type tests didn't exceed the limits, how could the knowledge-type tests possibly exceed them?
"So, I guess..."
Before Angor could speak, the rabbit girl blurted out the answer: "There's something here that can counter or weaken trolls!"
Angel smiled and said, "That's right. I guess the meaning of the three paintings is to let you find a way to weaken or counter the trolls. When you find this method, the difficulty of the battle against the trolls will probably drop sharply, and you might even win without a fight!"
“It’s an inlay!” the rabbit girl suddenly said. “I guess this thing that can weaken or counter trolls is an inlay.”
The presence of inlaid holes must have its significance!
Just as Angor said, as long as the right inlay is chosen, the effect of the magic array can be changed!
Rabbit Girl: "There's a misleading choice like 'Star' here, but there must be other inlays that can completely counter trolls!"
Having arrived at this conclusion, the rabbit girl, drawing inferences from it, continued:
"The Triangle Magic Array requires three inlays, and the three paintings might correspond to those three inlays! As long as we find the inlay, we'll have passed this test!"
The rabbit girl was a little excited.
However, after the initial excitement, she was stunned. Although she had guessed that there were inlays here that could restrain trolls, she still didn't know which books to choose.
There aren't any books like "The Troll Killer" here.
While the rabbit girl was struggling with her dilemma, Angell was also using a god-like perspective to compare the "things" in the hidden space and observe the books on the bookshelf, searching for connections between them.
Even with the ability to see through walls, Angel still didn't find the answer.
Because there are actually quite a few "things" hidden in the space.
It includes a "star," an unidentified ice crystal, a gem that releases golden flames, a handful of constantly flowing sand and gold, and an abyss gem that exudes a dark aura...
What are these things? Which one is the correct answer? And what are the three books corresponding to the correct answer?
Angell was also completely confused.
After thinking for a moment, Angell simply told the rabbit girl about the existence of these things, and they thought about it together.
After listening to Angel's story, the rabbit girl suddenly said, "I think I know the answer."
Angell: "???"
Rabbit Girl: "We just overlooked a piece of information."
The Wonderland hint once mentioned: "This troll from Nir'din is merely one of the insignificant research subjects of the great beings."
The rabbit girl saw one of the messages, but she didn't know the answer at the time and didn't pay attention to it.
And that information is... Nirteen!
"Do you know what kind of troll this is?" the rabbit girl whispered.
After a moment of silence, Angor said frankly, "I don't know much about the abyss trolls."
The rabbit girl wasn't surprised by the answer, because if Angor recognized the troll's identity, he would definitely be able to guess the truth.
"I don't know what kind of troll this is."
“However, I know that Nirting is a region on the third level of the Barren Abyss, and it was once ruled by an ancient ice demon.” The rabbit girl continued, “Therefore, the entire Nirting region is covered in snow.”
"The creatures that live here for a long time must be of the frost attribute."
"Trolls are not very intelligent, but their biological instincts will keep them away from uncomfortable places and choose the place that best suits them to settle down. For example, fire-type trolls cannot live in cold regions; they are either in volcanic areas or scorched earth regions."
"And this troll explicitly stated that it came from Nir'tien, so..."
Hearing this, how could Angel not understand what the rabbit girl meant?
"This is a troll with frost attributes?!"
The rabbit girl nodded: "That's right, but there are various categories of frost trolls, and I don't know which one it is; but that doesn't matter, as long as we know it's a frost troll, the answer is obvious."
"The inlay slot must be... a flame-related inlay!"
Because fire overcomes ice!
By amplifying the fire effect, the frost trolls located within the magic array can be weakened!
Of course, the rabbit girl didn't know whether the triangular magic circle amplified the flames. But among the various items in the hidden space described by Angor, only the fire-related gem was the only one that clearly countered the frost trolls.
Therefore, there was no other choice but "fire".
After listening to her story, Angell was inclined to agree with her. He carefully observed the only "flame" gem in the hidden space.
This is a very peculiar fire gem, with faint golden flames burning inside.
Because he was observing from a distance, Angell was also unable to determine what kind of product it was.
But it's clear that this gem is quite different.
There were no magic runes engraved on it, but it gave Angor a very strange feeling... a feeling that was vaguely related to the ritual.
"Are you sure you want to choose it?" Angell asked.
The rabbit girl nodded: "My intuition tells me I'm right."
Angell: "I just glanced at it, and the books related to fire are on the third shelf on the left."
Without hesitation, the rabbit girl followed Angel's directions and found the three books on the left bookshelf.
"The Beginning of the Fire Chaser - The Birth of the Young Fire Demon", "The Path of the Fire Servant - The Guardian of the Fire Demon", "The End of the Condensed Flame - The Growth of the Fire Emblem Demon"
Upon seeing the three books, the rabbit girl suddenly paused and quickly asked, "Does that golden flame gem have any patterns? Like carving flames to create some kind of strange tempered patterns?"
Angell: "Yes."
The rabbit girl had a "I knew it" look on her face.
"Then there's no doubt about it; that gem does indeed correspond to these three books."
Angell: "Is there any explanation?"
Rabbit Girl: "The adult form of the young fire demon is the Fire Emblem Demon..."
Angor: "I know that. I once met a young fire demon in Rasudran. It was said to be a noble among demons."
Rabbit Girl: "???"
You know the Young Fire Demon?
The rabbit girl really wanted to ask about the inside story, but considering that the countdown was underway, she decided to give up.
"Fire-Patterned Demons are great demons, and they do indeed belong to the noble class among demons." The rabbit girl said, "Fire-Patterned Demons have an ability to condense flames into Fire-Patterned Stones. Fire-Patterned Stones are golden flames with patterns within them."
Therefore, without a doubt, the gem in the hidden space is the Fire Emblem Stone.
"What are the effects of the Firestone?" Angel asked curiously.
The rabbit girl thought for a moment and said, "The flames of the Firestone originate from the primal power of the Firestone Demon, and naturally also carry the demon's aura. Therefore, taking out the Firestone has a deterrent effect on some lower-level demons..."
At this point, the rabbit girl suddenly changed the subject: "Frost trolls are abyssal monsters, so they'll be just as intimidated. In fact, fire demons, which are powerful fire-based demons, are their natural counter!"
As she finished speaking, the rabbit girl's speech quickened: "Before, I was only 70% confident, but now I'm absolutely certain that choosing the Fire Emblem Gem was the right choice!"
Angell: "Since you've made your choice, I'll step back from the God's-eye view for now. After all, I'm also undergoing a test of my knowledge."
The rabbit girl was taken aback: "You got in too?"
Angel: "Yes, when we were chatting just now, I chose the white circle in the middle area and came in."
"Was your test difficult?" the rabbit girl asked curiously. "Do you need my help?"
Angel: "I don't know the difficulty level yet. I'll contact you again if I need any help. Of course, if you need my help on your end, you can contact me anytime through the rabbit doll. Even if I don't know, I can ask for help from outside."
The rabbit girl nodded and didn't delay Angel any longer; the communication was temporarily cut off.
She carried three books about the growth of young fire demons to the desk and placed them in front of the young man.
The young man looked up and asked, "Are you sure you want the passwords to these three books?"
As he asked, the options reappeared in the rabbit girl's text box: shake your head or nod.
She nodded without hesitation.
The young man glanced at the three books on the table, but instead of immediately revealing the password to the rabbit girl, he pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I suggest you take a look at the 'Sun, Moon, and No Stars' series..."
Rabbit Girl: "...?"
I just asked you if you had any suggestions, and you said you didn't know.
Why are you suddenly offering suggestions now?
The bunny girl looked at the options in the text box, and there were still only nods or shakes of the head.
Without hesitation, she shook her head to indicate her refusal.
This guy even went so far as to mislead her...
The young man shrugged: "Since you've confirmed it, I'll give you the password."
He opened the drawer and handed the rabbit girl a piece of paper with a password written on it.
The moment the rabbit girl took the password and her fingertips touched the edge of the paper, the entire study suddenly fell into an eerie stillness, as if time had been paused.
The next second, a rustling sound came, like the tearing sound of paper being ripped apart.
Immediately afterwards, the bookshelves, desk, and walls crumbled into ink dust one after another, the space collapsed rapidly, and a tremendous force suddenly pulled her backward.
In a flash of light, the rabbit girl was kicked out of the picture and staggered into the pure black space.
"I haven't taken my book out yet!" After regaining her balance, the rabbit girl immediately looked up, preparing to walk back towards the painting that represented the study.
But now, the painting is still there, only it no longer depicts a study, but has transformed into a blazing golden gem born from flames.
This gemstone is a fire-patterned gem!
At the same time, new information popped up in the text box.
"Shall we exchange the 'password' for the Fire Emblem Gem?"
"whether"
The rabbit girl paused for a second, then looked down at her hands.
Although she didn't have time to bring the three books out, she still kept the "password" tightly in her hand.
Therefore, the book itself isn't important. What's important is choosing the right book and obtaining the corresponding password?
The rabbit girl hesitated for a moment, then chose "yes".
The next second, the coded paper she was clutching in her palm instantly transformed into tiny specks of light, merging into the painting. At the same time, the blazing golden fire-patterned gem in the painting suddenly lit up, breaking free from the frame and flying towards her like a streak of fire, landing steadily in her outstretched hand.
The gemstone felt warm to the touch, and the flickering flame patterns on its surface seemed to come alive as it gently caressed her palm.
She looked up at the painting again.
The image that once held the Fire Emblem Gem has faded into a blank space, as if the study had never existed, nor had the Fire Emblem Gem ever been there, leaving only a piece of white paper with a faint glow...
