Section 1546 The Truth About Gusttown
Although there is no conclusive evidence to suggest that the "Reincarnation Box" refined by Ivo is the same mysterious object as the "Reincarnation Crate of the Undead" as Frost said, there are some similarities between the two.
The most obvious is the name. It should be rare for the same mysterious thing to have a similar name.
However, the name is similar, and it is very likely to be a coincidence, after all, Ivo's "Samsara Box" is marked with a tentative name.
In addition to the name, there is a second similarity, there may be a lot of mysterious things, but there are very few mysterious things with similar names and all out of control.
Originally, Frost mentioned the "box of reincarnation of the undead" because he was using this mysterious object to explain to Ingres what it means to be "out of control". And the signs of the collapse of the rules of the "box of reincarnation" mentioned by Granny Nails in the present world can basically be locked, and it is also out of control.
Out of control is extremely rare among mysterious things. According to Granny Nails, the box of reincarnation was originally refined in a small world near the Southern Regions, and Frost also said that the box of reincarnation of the undead was also found in a world near the Southern Regions, and both of them were near the Southern Regions, which also explains some problems.
Perhaps, there is still a slight possibility that this evidence can be made into a coincidence. But if we work backwards in terms of consequentialism, it would be interesting because there would be more similarities.
Suppose that the two are the same mysterious object in their own right, and that Alex and Ivo are indeed related, and may even be the same person.
Well, a lot of things can make sense.
For example, Frost once said that the box of reincarnation is actually composed of an hour and space, each hour and space is a scene, and every scene is a reincarnation, and the foreign participants are the so-called reincarnators, who want to solve the puzzles of the current scene and finally kill the mastermind, so that they can get out of the current scene and enter the next reincarnation.
It's too similar to the situation in Gusttown, which is a set up scene that serves as a cage to trap an outsider, Alex. And if you want to get out of this cage, you must solve the secret in the cage: serial murder.
In terms of background and purpose, the two coincide almost exactly.
Moreover, Frost's "reincarnation box of the undead" has an important point, which is the prefix "undead". In the town of Gust, where Alex is staying, the undead also appear, and the purpose of the undead is to kill outsiders. However, Alex was lucky, and at first Father Bronlong blinded Mother Tessa from him.
Therefore, Angel has reason to suspect that Gusttown is actually a reincarnation scene in the box of reincarnation.
Father Bronlong once said: "Beyond the cage, there are larger cages, one after the other, and it is a progressive fear, from which no one can break free except the Father who is high up." ”
This is actually the same mechanism as the "Reincarnation Box of the Undead", Frost went through a series of reincarnations, struggling in different scenes, from the monastery of horrors, to the orphanage of the ghosts, the ghost town, the sunset demon temple, and finally went through twenty reincarnations before escaping.
It is also consistent with what Brown Lang said, "one after another, progressive fear cage".
And Bronlong was one of the guards arranged by the creator of Fan Cage in Gusttown, and his words are still credible.
From the consequentialist point of view, many places make sense, and there are so many similarities, that Ingres has reason to believe that the "box of reincarnation" and the "box of reincarnation of the undead" mentioned by Frost are the same mysterious thing.
As for the relationship between Alex and Ivo.
Angel himself can't judge, but he believes that Granny Nails's rhetoric, there are too many coincidences, maybe it's inevitable.
Moreover, during the time when Angel was in Gust Town, the main reason why he stayed near Alex was that Alex's whole person, from aura, personality to behavior, was too different from the people around him.
Although he was cold and indifferent, he was not ungrateful. He didn't seem interested in anything, but because everyone else was focused on sixpence on earth, he was looking up at the bright moon in the sky.
His thinking logic is like that of a wizard who has been immersed in the transcendent world for many years, which is very different from ordinary people, but he is just an ordinary person.
Angel was suspicious of Alex's identity until Granny Nails told her story.
Angel was convinced almost immediately.
Not to mention whether Alex is Ivo or not, but Ingres has always felt in his heart that Alex is definitely not an ordinary person. So, he trusts the judgment of the nail mother-in-law.
It is precisely because of the judgment of his mother-in-law that Angel connected all the stories and deduced a truth that he thought was relatively reliable-
Because Frost said that the "Reincarnation Box of the Undead" has its own unique rules, and if you enter it, you will lose all your strength except for retaining a part of your physical strength.
After Ivo fell into the box of reincarnation, he may have had some changes, lost some of his memories, and the power of the wizard was forced to obscure him, and he became Alex.
As Alex, he has been experiencing reincarnation in the box of reincarnation until now.
This is the truth that Ingres deduced.
There are also some inexplicable points in it, such as the reincarnation box that blocks power, but Ingres can use illusions in it, which is a bit strange. However, this can also push the energy level of the Empty Illusion Gate is very high, overriding the rules of the reincarnation box, or rather, he himself has not really entered the reincarnation box, but just an illusion body wanders outside the world, and the "physical" power of the illusion body is illusion, and it seems that it is also in line with the rules to be able to use his own power.
After speculating on this so-called truth, Ingres was actually very surprised.
The reason why he has been tracking the trail of Gusttown is that in addition to wanting to know if Alex has eliminated the nun, he also wants to confirm the ability of the Void Gate.
He had always thought that Fan Cage was somewhere in the Southern Regions, because he hadn't traveled long in the passage of the Void Illusion Gate.
But according to the current inference, it is absolutely impossible for Fan Cage to be in the Southern Regions. If the "box of reincarnation" is the "box of reincarnation of the undead", in Frost's words, it may be somewhere near the Southern Regions.
He shuttled through the Empty Illusion Gate for such a short time, and he crossed countless worlds to reach the box of reincarnation?
So, if he hadn't gotten off halfway, where would the passage in the Void Gate end up? Could it be the end of everything, even beyond the dimension?
No matter where that passage leads, it is certain that the Void Gate's shuttle ability is estimated to be the strongest spatial shuttle known so far.
It's a pity that the waiting time for recovery is too long, and you can't use the main body to traverse, and you can only use the illusion body to shuttle.
And "jumped out of the car" halfway, and didn't know where I would fall.
Just like last time, the ignorant jumped out of the car, and it ended up in the town of Gust.
When Angel had already begun to summarize the harvest in his heart and conduct a new round of evaluation of the Void Illusion Gate, Granny Nails, who had been waiting for Angel to give a conclusion, finally couldn't help but be the first to speak.
"Can you say it now?"
How did you know the story in Shadow of the Cage, why did you confirm that the story was true, and ...... Alex: Where is he now?
Ingres probably didn't know how to answer before, because he really didn't.
Now he has deduced a rough idea himself, and although he can answer it, many things cannot be said clearly, because it involves the special ability of the Void Illusion Gate.
Angel thought for a moment, and finally muttered, "Actually, this matter starts with the incident of Castle Black. ”
As Granny Nails listens intently, Ingres talks about the Castle Black Castle in general terms, until he has a reincarnation overture to help the people of Castle Black eradicate the undead, and in the process, a special undead is discovered.
At this point, Granny Nails hadn't heard the main idea, and she didn't know why Angels was saying this, but she couldn't interrupt him, so she could only calm down and continue listening.
“...... A man wearing a bronze mask appeared in the sky above Castle Black. Angel finally spoke of Frost, and then he blurred some of the content and talked about the wizard who was suspected to be "above the legend".
"I'm very interested in the mysteries, and I've been in close proximity to the mystical realm, so Lord Frost finally told me something about the mysteries. ”
In terms of controllable, semi-out of control and out of control, Ingres explained one by one.
After hearing this, Granny Nails also nodded: "Indeed, I have heard that these three divisions of mysterious things in terms of stability are very likely to be the reincarnation box refined by Ivo at the beginning...... Get out of hand. ”
"When His Excellency Frost explained to me the loss of control, he gave an example of him. Ingres paused for emphasis, and then continued: "The example he gave was a mysterious object called the Reincarnation Box of the Undead. ”
As soon as the words fell, the nails' mother-in-law's pupils shrank, and her expression froze.
After a long time, the nail mother-in-law trembled and said, "This, this...... What is the relationship between this "box of reincarnation of the undead" and the "box of reincarnation"?"
Ingres shrugged, "I can't give a precise answer, but I personally think it's the same mysterious thing." I'll go on, and my mother-in-law might as well judge for herself. ”
Ingres tells all the contents and details of the "Reincarnation Box of the Undead".
The scenes of each reincarnation are explained, as well as the meaning of the existence of these hours and spaces, and how to escape the hours and spaces by deciphering them and enter the next reincarnation.
"Lord Frost has been through a lot of scenes, the Abbey of the Horrors, the Wraith Orphanage, the town of Gust, the ghost town, ......"
At this time, Angels finally mentioned the town of Gust, that is, the cage.
Whether Frost experienced Gusttown or not, Ingres doesn't know, but most likely not.
It was impossible for him to say that he had entered Gusttown through the Ethereal Gate, which would have exposed his secrets, even extending to the Outer Eye and Mentor Jon.
He didn't dare to lie directly, because with the ability of Granny Nail, it was very likely to detect it, so he used this method to inadvertently mention Gust Town and let Granny Nail associate it herself:
- The story of the shadow of the cage, that is, the scene that took place in the town of Gust, may have been told to Ingres by Lord Frost.
If Granny Nails must continue to ask, she can also laugh and not answer, after all, this is about a wizard who is "above the legend".
Sure enough, after Angel finished saying this, Granny Nails made up the follow-up plot by herself.
This explains why Ingres knew the story. Granny Nails thought to herself, but because the matter was related to Frost, she didn't ask any more questions, but she had already confirmed in her heart that Frost had told Angel about it.
