Super Dimensional Wizard

Chapter 3898 First Edition Instructions

When the ether core was stripped, the source died.

Yes, it was dead.

The consciousness of Luliana and Doros is stored in the puppet body, so as long as the puppet body is not destroyed, their consciousness will slowly recover.

But the source is different, its operation is based on the ether core.

When the ether core is stripped, it will naturally die.

Of course, saying "death" may be a bit inaccurate, after all, it has no subjective consciousness. Considering its way of existence, it may be more accurate to use "broken".

The source is like a toy with running code written on it, and now it has been broken by Angel.

Is it possible for it to be "resurrected"?

Yes.

As long as someone is proficient in the running code of the source and repairs it from software to hardware, it is possible for it to stand up again.

But the source without independent consciousness, even if it is resurrected, is just equivalent to re-"activating" the toy, with more symbolism than meaning.

...

Angel only glanced at the source lying on the ground, and after confirming that it was "broken", he looked up into the air.

The ether core wrapped by the "hand bush flower".

The hand bush flower was naturally made by Angel.

Before that, when Dolos told Angel that the source was about to revive and the only way to deal with it was to peel off the "ether core", Angel had a vague plan in his mind.

He concealed the nightmare nodes and attached them to various parts of the puppet.

As long as the source wakes up and the ether core reveals its true appearance, the nightmare nodes left on the puppet will be activated and the ether core will be forcibly peeled off.

Of course, it was just a vague plan at the beginning, and the process was completely improvisation.

There is only one point that remains unchanged from beginning to end, that is: the nightmare nodes attached to the puppet must be well hidden and cannot be activated no matter what happens. It can only be activated after the source truly reveals the ether core.

That is why, even when Angell’s Nightmare Node was running low, he never thought of using the Nightmare Node on the puppet. If he activated it at that time, it would only alert the enemy.

Moreover, with Yuanchu’s powerful error correction ability, as long as he knew that there was a Nightmare Node on his body, it would not give Angell the opportunity to strip the Ether Core.

When facing Yuanchu, you must remember one thing.

Any attack, even an attack with a very big flaw, is most effective the first time.

Because all of Yuanchu’s combat capabilities are based on data analysis. In order to record data, it sometimes even actively lets the enemy release all its abilities.

Therefore, even an offensive method with a huge flaw may have an effect on Yuanchu when used for the first time.

It is precisely because of Yuanchu’s flaw of recording data for analysis that Angell kept the Nightmare Node hidden until it turned into the “Handbush Flower” in the end and succeeded in one fell swoop.

In fact, Yuanchu has a chance to turn the tables.

When it saw that the target of the “Handbush Flower” was the Ether Core, it immediately hid the “Ether Core” back in its body, and then it could turn the tables.

But it found that the ether core could corrode the "phantom hand", and in order to record the data of the phantom hand, it did not take back the ether core in the first place, which led to the current situation.

If the source had self-awareness, its behavior could be classified as arrogance and stupidity.

Unfortunately, the source did not have self-awareness, so its behavior could only be described as rigid and mechanical.

It was completely trapped in its own "rigidity".

Angell waved his hand lightly, and the ether core held by the hand flower slowly approached Angell.

Because it was peeled off from the source, the ether core at this time had fallen into a "dead silence" state again, and did not release ether energy to the outside.

It is now completely like a dark glass bead, but there are faint colorful spots in it.

Although it is silent now, Angell has no intention of touching it. It has not forgotten the scene where the phantom hand he created before was instantly corroded by ether energy and turned into ashes.

Of course, the eroded phantom hand was deliberately used by Angel to fish, using ordinary illusion nodes, just to make Yuanchu take it lightly, so it was so easily eroded.

The "Hand Bush Flower" that appeared later was composed of nightmare illusion nodes.

As the three basic abilities of the Dream Crystal Origin, the level of the Nightmare Realm Power is definitely not comparable to the ether energy. Under the suppression of the energy level, the Hand Bush Flower can successfully cover the ether core.

However, this is only limited to the Dream Crystal Origin. If it is in reality, it is difficult to say which level is higher between the Nightmare Realm Power and the ether energy.

Looking at the ether core in the Hand Bush Flower, if Angel had not just seen the surging ether energy, it would be hard to believe that such a small bead actually has such a huge energy reserve.

"Ether Core (bound)"

"Condensed from high-concentration ether energy. Because of the special encryption used during the condensation, this ether core can only be used to power the "human machine" and cannot charge other dark corner items."

When Angel saw the words "bound" appear on the text bar, he initially thought that the ether core was bound to the pickup, but after reading the introduction, he found that this ether core was not bound to him at all, but to the "human machine".

"Human Machine" can be checked by clicking in.

After further investigation, Angel confirmed that the original permission to use the ether core was Yuanchu.

But now, after the origin was broken, the authority was automatically revoked.

"Currently bindable objects: Luliana/Doros"

Angel can set it to bind to any of them, but only the two of them can bind, and no one else can use the ether core.

The reason is the "special encryption compilation".

If nothing unexpected happens, this encryption compilation was made by the Lord Moon Eye they mentioned.

Angel originally wanted to use his mental power to find out what the so-called "encryption compilation" is, but when he probed his mental power into the ether core, the mental power that was originally full of activity was instantly invaded by a heretical energy full of destructive feeling.

Moreover, this energy seemed to realize that mental power is an extension of consciousness, and began to reversely erode Angel's mental power, trying to find and destroy the source consciousness of mental power.

When Angel realized that something was wrong, he immediately withdrew his mental power from the ether core.

But one end of the mental power tentacles was obviously contaminated with ether energy, and there were holes eroded by "colorful black" everywhere.

Enduring the stinging pain in his brain, Angel had no choice but to cut off the corroded mental tentacles.

At the moment when the mental tentacles were cut off, Angel's face turned pale, his body began to shake, and he almost stumbled and fell.

He did not suffer any injuries when fighting with Yuanchu, but he wanted to explore the ether core, but suffered a serious injury...

Angel was also a little speechless about this. Perhaps this is the price of recklessness?

However, this serious injury was not completely without gain.

He saw the violence and corrosion of the ether core with his own eyes. Angel can be sure that this level of corrosion, judging from the current level of challengers in the Dream Crystal Origin, should not be resisted by anyone.

Even Angel could not analyze it in depth.

No wonder the investigators listed the ether leakage as a serious disaster.

Since the ether energy cannot be analyzed for the time being, Angel can only put the ether core aside for the time being. With a gentle wave of his hand, the flowers in the hand cluster, which were originally blooming, slowly closed again, wrapping the ether core inside.

Da Da Da --

Angel walked towards the center of the stage, and every step he took caused the thin layer of water on the floor to stir up slight ripples.

A moment later, he came to the side of the puppet.

The puppet at this time had long lost the elegance and stretch when he first saw it, and even the pure white wedding dress was tattered, revealing the porcelain crack wound inside.

However, Angel's attention was not on the puppet, but on the doll's eyebrows.

The ether core was in the hole at its eyebrows before, but now that the ether core is gone, the hole has not closed.

To the naked eye, there is nothing in the hole, but in Angel's power vision, it can be clearly seen that the information of the remaining power of the fairyland is lingering in the hole.

If nothing unexpected happens, just touching this hole should be able to activate the fairyland information.

Angel thought about it and reached out to touch its eyebrows.

"Hidden command detection——"

"Detecting the main consciousness... Main consciousness Luliana, in coma (awakening countdown 00:17:55)"

"Detecting the secondary consciousness... Secondary consciousness Doros, in coma (awakening countdown 00:26:13)"

"Detecting the original code... cannot run!"

"The conditions for opening the hidden command are met."

"Do you want to enter the core command editing interface of "human-machine"? Yes/No"

Angel could feel that as "Hidden command detection" appeared in the text column, an unknown energy appeared in the body of the puppet that fainted on the ground.

It should be this energy that is doing self-checking.

Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to detect and perceive this kind of detection. At least you have to understand the internal instructions of the puppet.

But now everything is in text, even when the main and secondary consciousnesses wake up is displayed. Obviously, this is a kind of adaptive change made by the power of the fairyland in order to let the challenger know the progress more intuitively.

Angel did not hesitate and directly chose "Yes".

He had spent so much effort fighting with Yuanchu, wasn't it just to modify the body's instructions? Now the harvest time has finally come.

The next second, a large amount of fairyland information rushed into the text column.

"The first edition of the core instructions for "Human-machine""

"Instruction 1: Luliana is the main consciousness of the "Human-machine" and has the initiative of the body. Only when Luliana falls into a coma, the secondary consciousness Doros can temporarily take over the initiative of the body. (Editable)"

"Instruction 2: The main consciousness of the "Human-machine" will assume the responsibility of protection. Current protection responsibilities - 1. Stop and kill all those who attempt to break into the dream layer. 2. Protect the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array. 3. Respond to the requests of believers. (Partially editable)"

"Instruction 3: The main consciousness of the "Human-machine" will take the responsibility of protection as the most important, and is prohibited from communicating with outsiders. (Editable)"

"Instruction 4: The main consciousness and secondary consciousness of the "Human-machine" must not harm themselves in any way, and must not be timid or afraid of fighting in any way. (Uneditable)"

"Instruction 5..."

"Instruction 6..."

Angel roughly read it.

There are more than ten instructions in total, and these instructions cover all aspects, and most of them are restrictions on the "Human-machine".

Or to be more precise, it is a restriction on the "main consciousness". The constraints on the secondary consciousness are not that great.

This may also be the reason why, although it was Doros who asked Lord Moon Eye to change into the current half-human, half-dummy form, in the end, Luliana took the position of the main consciousness.

Although the main consciousness has the initiative of the body, it is less free than the secondary consciousness.

No wonder Luliana thinks about death all the time.

Putting aside the constraints on Luliana in the instructions, Angel also saw some tricks from this version of the core instructions.

——Not all instructions can be modified.

For example, the fact that the human-machine cannot harm itself cannot be modified. Also, the "Protect the Holy Eye Prayer Gathering Array" in the Guardian Responsibility cannot be modified.

Why does this happen?

Angel guessed that it was probably left by "Moon Eye".

When "Moon Eye" set up the first version of the core instructions, it probably considered the possibility that someone might open and modify the hidden instructions in the future.

In order to prevent the "latecomers" from destroying the human-machine and not blocking the original purpose of the human-machine, Moon Eye handed over some less core instructions to the "latecomers".

As long as the "core instructions" and the safety of the human-machine are preserved, it doesn't matter if others modify some corner instructions.

This may be the reason why some instructions can be modified and some cannot.

It can be said that this is the conspiracy of Yueyan.

Giving certain permissions to the latecomers not only satisfies the latecomers, but also leaves a glimmer of hope for the human-machine.

Angel had no intention of destroying the human-machine, so he didn't care too much about the instructions that could not be modified.

But then again, the "cage" side quest should have entered the final period.

Once he modified the instructions, the cage mission would be completed.

And the reward for the "cage" mission clearly stated that there was "activating the dark corner entrance".

Logically speaking, at this point, there should be information about the "dark corner entrance", but why is there still no information about the dark corner entrance?

Or is it that the information about the dark corner entrance has actually appeared, but he didn't notice it?

While Angel was thinking, his eyes swept over the core instructions of the first version again.

When Angel saw instruction two, his eyes suddenly paused: the main consciousness of the "human-machine" will assume the responsibility of protection.

Among them, the protection responsibility was also specially marked out, with a total of three items.

The first item is to stop people who try to enter the dream layer. Angel had known this from the NPC information before. The third item is to respond to the believers' requests... This is probably related to the Dark Corner Cult, but given Luliana's situation, it is definitely impossible to respond to the believers' requests. It is likely that Dolos will respond.

Only the second item is something Angel had not heard of before.

- Protect the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array.

Could the Dark Corner entrance be related to the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array?
