Chapter 4420 The Main Storyline's Opportunity
There were only two places in the entire Dream Crystal Plain where natural changes occurred, one of which was right above his head.
Looking at the dark, heavy clouds, Angel's expression slowly turned to one of confusion.
At first, he thought it was aimed at him, but upon closer inspection, he realized that the huge vortex formed by the black clouds, although it was indeed above his head, was pointing at... the Uriel instance.
At the same time, Angell could also sense from the surrounding power that none of these powers resonated with him, meaning that they were not actually targeting him.
But if it's targeting the Uriel instance... then why is that?
"Could something have happened to Blanche and the others while they were trying to smuggle themselves across the border?"
Angor immediately made the connection, after all, the only thing worth paying attention to in the Uriel instance right now, and the one most likely to cause an anomaly in the Fairy Realm's powers, is "smuggling Rigota".
But if the changes were caused by the smuggling of Rigota, why are there also dark cloud vortexes over Rabbit Town?
Just as Angor was wondering, he received Luigi's "call"—the Nightmare Node left for Luigi had been activated by him.
He had previously told Luigi to remember to contact him when Blanche arrived at the instance.
And just then, Luigi called out to himself.
So, this vortex of dark clouds really is related to Rigota's smuggling?
Angor had initially considered collecting the diffused power around him to analyze the information contained within, but the power was too immense, making it difficult to find the source of the information. However, there was now a simpler method: by directly observing the internal changes of the Uriel instance from the perspective of the miniature garden, he could understand why such an anomaly had occurred.
With this in mind, Angor entered the miniature world view without hesitation, his goal being the Uriel instance!
Soon, Angor saw the interior of the Uriel instance.
But what he saw surprised him greatly.
First, extreme natural phenomena appeared inside the instance. The entire miniature garden was shrouded in rumbling thunderclouds, with raging winds and flashing lightning.
Angor vividly remembered that when he left the Uriel instance, the place was peaceful, but now it was experiencing the same celestial phenomenon as the outside world.
This once again proves that external celestial phenomena are closely related to the changes in the Uriel copy.
However, when Angell went to investigate the interior of the sandbox, he discovered something strange.
He had initially thought that Blanche had smuggled Rigota across the border, causing the current situation, but upon closer inspection, he discovered that neither Rigota nor Blanche were in the instance.
Luigi is the only character in the entire Uriel instance.
This made Angor subconsciously wonder if he had guessed wrong, and if Luigi was the source of all the anomalies?
However, this guess was quickly dismissed, because he saw Luigi staring in astonishment at the withered tree in the center of the yard.
Previously, a door had appeared on the trunk of this withered tree; this door was the entrance to the Misty Swamp instance. Now, that door has changed again, with a vortex constantly spinning at its center.
Most importantly, the area around the vortex was filled with the power of authority.
This also means that this vortex may be the source of all the variables!
……
"What's going on with this vortex?" Angel's voice reached Luigi's ears.
Luigi was still in a daze. The sudden turn of events had left him reeling for a long time, and he only subconsciously contacted Angor through Nightmare Illusion.
Now that Angell has finally arrived, Luigi's chaotic heart is slowly calming down.
“I don’t know either. Just now, I was playing the piano, and Uriel and Guleimo congratulated me on finally breaking through my limitations and being able to use the power of nature to play the Doomsday Suite…”
"But before I could get excited for long, the vortex appeared."
"Could it be that Heaven is jealous of my talent? Just because I broke through to become a great artist, it no longer wants to see me?"
Angell: "I don't know if the heavens are jealous of your talent, but I'm curious, you mentioned Uriel and Guleimo, where are they now?"
In Angor's view, the only living being in the Uriel instance is Luigi.
Are Uriel and Guleimo offline?
Or……
“They got sucked into the vortex! I saw them get sucked in, that’s why I contacted you immediately,” Luigi said, pointing to the vortex.
His answer confirmed Angell's guess.
This vortex was not only the source of all the anomalies, but it also devoured Uriel and Guleimo.
"Have you explored this vortex?" Angell asked.
Luigi shook his head: "No, I contacted you immediately. I didn't dare to do anything rash."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "It's strange, but just before the vortex appeared, I was leaning against the door playing the Doomsday Suite."
"Even after the vortex appeared, I was still by the door, and I could even feel the suction force in the vortex."
"But this vortex doesn't suck me in at all; instead, it sucked in Guleimo and Uriel."
In Luigi's memory, there was indeed a suction force in the vortex, but it wasn't strong enough to pull people away. However, Gleim and Uriel were sucked in anyway.
Didn't you try to stop them?
Luigi shook his head: "We couldn't stop them. Because the situation was very strange. The moment the vortex appeared, they became distorted phantoms... just like the people in that abstract painting 'The Scream' that you put in the library, they were distorted and sucked into the vortex."
Moreover, Guleimo and Uriel were positioned on the left and right, like a ribbon, winding around Luigi and being pulled into the vortex.
At that time, Luigi also tried to pull it, but when his hands touched it, they passed right through the illusion. He couldn't even touch it, let alone pull it.
He guessed that Guleimo and Uriel were probably pulled directly into the vortex, and that the distorted phantom was just a... cutscene.
"Hasn't Blanche and the others arrived yet?" Angell thought for a moment and then asked.
Luigi shook his head: "He didn't come."
Angor's eyes flashed with doubt. Blanche and the others hadn't arrived yet, so how did this vortex appear? And why was it only sucking up Uriel and Guleimo after it appeared?
Angell felt that the mystery was getting more and more complicated, and it even made him a little tired.
He only went to check on Sean's situation, which was less than half an hour. It wasn't like he had been sleeping for ten or fifteen days like Sleeping Beauty. How could the Uriel instance have undergone such a dramatic change?
"Angol, are you alright?" Although Luigi couldn't see Angel's expression because they were separated by a small garden, Angel's sudden silence made Luigi realize that something was wrong, so he asked.
Angell remained silent for a long while before sighing softly, "Your instance is the most convoluted and bizarre instance I've ever encountered..."
According to Gray Porcelain's assessment, the Uriel dungeon was only an F-rank dungeon, so how come one variable after another has occurred?
He thought that after conquering the Misty Forest dungeon, the Uriel dungeon would finally be over, but now another big one has appeared.
Ingres even suspected that his observations might have led to the emergence of variables.
Before the observation, this instance was perfectly peaceful... no, even without the observation, this instance was still a mess, as evidenced by the daily refresh of Dreamers.
So it wasn't because of his observations...that's good.
Angell refocused his gaze on the vortex. It seemed that the vortex was the culprit behind everything. Once the situation of the vortex was confirmed, perhaps they could find out what had happened before.
"Let me take a look at this vortex."
"Do you need my help?" Luigi: "I mean, do you need me to touch it?"
Angel quickly stopped him: "We don't know the specifics of the vortex yet. Let's not make contact yet. Let me first decipher the power information near the vortex."
Luigi nodded, silently walked to the side, and waited for Angell's decision.
Angell had already begun to try to sense the power information near the vortex.
However, with the sheer volume of information available today, Angell has no way of knowing which powers are useful and which are not, so he can only randomly select and examine them.
Three minutes... five minutes...
Ten minutes passed.
The celestial phenomena in the Uriel instance showed no signs of abating; in fact, the thunderclouds were getting lower and thicker.
The instance originally had some visibility, but now the surrounding environment has almost turned into night.
If it weren't for the streetlights still on outside on Murren Street and the glow emanating from inside the travel cabin, this place would probably be pitch black.
After a while, Angel's voice finally rang out.
However, Angel's voice sounded noticeably tired at this moment: "I've roughly sensed it, but because the power information in the vicinity is too complex, I'm not sure about the specific situation inside the vortex yet. But I can be fairly certain of one thing: this vortex was most likely created by the power of the fairy realm."
"Fairyland powers? Is that a good thing?"
"I'm not sure if it's a good thing, but it's better than I expected."
Because the whirlpool appeared so abruptly, and it just so happened to coincide with the time when Blanche and her group were smuggling themselves across the border.
Even though Blanche and the others had not yet entered the instance, Angor couldn't help but connect the two, suspecting that the source of the vortex came from outside the Dream Crystal Plains.
If this is true, it means that an unknown variable has emerged in the gap between the Dream Realm, the Mirror Realm, and the Nightmare Realm.
For example, a monster from the Dream Realm created this vortex by sneaking in through Blanche, attempting to invade the Dream Crystal Plains.
This is not an overreaction from Angor; abnormal situations have occurred several times in the outer realms of Dream Crystal.
For example, at the moment when the Dream Crystal was born, a large number of dream monsters invaded both inside and outside the world. At that time, even the rabbit girl was assigned to exterminate the monsters.
Later, the arrival of the Starry Sea Train was also an unexpected event outside of Dream Crystal Plain.
Therefore, although the Dream Crystal is located in the gap between multiple worlds, it is not to say that it is absolutely safe.
Especially when it comes to Blanche's smuggling, as she has to travel from the regular dream world to the Dream Crystal Plains beyond the boundless realm, no one knows what unexpected events might occur along the way.
If the vortex was indeed caused by the outer realms, then the consequences would be severe.
This is why Angor didn't let Luigi touch the vortex before, to prevent him from being sucked out of the world.
But now, Angell's worries have lessened considerably.
Because the vortex was constructed by the power of the fairy realm, although he has not yet found the main information inside the "vortex", he can determine from the scattered information that the inside of the vortex is likely to be another new dungeon connected to the Uriel dungeon, similar to the previous Misty Forest dungeon.
Once he confirmed that this was a new instance, Angor stopped interpreting the information.
If he continues to interpret, he can confirm the situation inside the vortex, but it will take a lot of time to organize and summarize the power information, and it will also be very mentally taxing.
Angel had already become mentally exhausted from searching the Sea of Power Information for so long, and continuing to explore would not be good for him.
Therefore, Ingres chose to stop interpreting the vortex and instead use another method to obtain information about it.
"If all goes well, there's a newly created instance behind the vortex," Angor said. "You can try touching it; the text bar should display information about the instance."
Yes, Angel chose to let Luigi obtain the information directly.
This is the most direct way to obtain information.
"The vortex is a new instance?" Luigi was taken aback at first, then his face lit up with realization: "I get it, no wonder I wasn't sucked in."
Luigi is currently in the Uriel raid and hasn't been sucked into other raids, which seems normal.
With mixed feelings, Luigi approached the whirlpool and, at Angor's prompting, reached out his hand.
When Luigi touched the vortex, he felt a strong suction force again, but like before, it was not strong enough to pull a person away.
Along with the suction force comes corresponding fairyland prompts.
At this moment, new messages began to appear in Luigi's text box.
However, when Luigi opened the text box to check the information, he found that the new information was somewhat related to the Vortex instance, but more importantly—
"The special dream 'Uriel's Choice' main quest 7 - ??? is about to begin."
Main plot summary: Having obtained the "Star Crown," you become a constant topic of discussion at Eden College in Birmingham. Countless people questioned Guleimo's decision, but you relied on your own strength to defeat a large number of doubters and finally quell the public's doubts. But what followed was a new shock: the imperial public opinion began to question your very existence.
"Mission Objective: To quell the doubts in the Imperial public sphere and embark on the journey to the ultimate stage."
Note: This quest is temporarily unavailable. You need to reach "Dawn's Dream" first to trigger the subsequent quests.
Yes, Luigi's first impressions weren't of the vortex dungeon, but rather of his upcoming main quest.
This surprised Luigi, but also brought him a touch of delight.
As Angor had previously mentioned, his main storyline was about to reach its final chapter. However, due to the numerous variables in the dungeon, no one knew when the final chapter would arrive.
According to Ingres, they need to wait for a "timing".
Unexpectedly, this "opportunity" came so quickly!
According to the information in the copy, the opportunity is related to "Dawn Dream".
But what exactly is this "dawn dream"?
