Chapter 3663 Hidden Carriage
After answering the three questions he had prepared, the owl paused for a moment and continued, "I don't know if you have understood what the Star Lord meant... I hope you can understand."
"Because time is tight, no matter what you think now, I have to move on to the next topic."
After coughing twice, Owl finally talked about the most crucial topic: the invitation letter.
"Please note that what I am about to say is highly confidential and must not be leaked."
"Establishing the platform is a gesture of goodwill from the Star Lord. The invitation letter, or the Hidden World Card, is the certificate for going to the Hidden World. You can think of it as the Star Lord's investment in the seeds of potential."
"I guess you must be confused at this moment. It's okay. Please listen to me and I will explain it slowly."
"Let's talk about the 'Hidden World' first. I don't know if the Starworm has mentioned the Hidden World to you, but even if it has, it doesn't know much about it."
"So, let me start from the beginning and talk to you about 'Hidden World'."
What does it mean to live in seclusion?
The Hidden World is a world opened up by the Star Lord, which can be understood as a special world similar to the Dream World, the Star Spirit World, and the Quest World.
However, it was only "similar" and was far from reaching the level of a special world in terms of classification. But the hidden world did have some characteristics that only special worlds had.
For example... teleportation beyond space and time.
Point A and Point B are ten thousand dimensions apart. It takes a month for an ordinary wizard to drift in the void by one percent of a dimension. Even if he exerts all his strength, he can only travel by one tenth of a dimension in a month at most.
By this calculation, it would take at least ten thousand years to get from point A to point B.
But if you go to the special world, it will be much simpler.
Assume that this special world is the Quest world, that is, the soul plane.
Enter the soul plane from point A. Because the soul plane is spread across the infinite plane, as long as you find the coordinates corresponding to point B in the soul plane, you can directly land at point B.
As long as you move fast enough and are familiar with the soul plane, you can even cross the universe and reach point B from point A in half a day.
One side takes ten thousand years, while the other side only takes half a day. This is the uniqueness of this special world.
And seclusion also has similar characteristics.
From point A to the hidden world, and then from the hidden world to point B, the hidden world can also do it.
That's why the owl said that the hidden world is similar to a special world.
When saying this, the owl also revealed a secret piece of information.
When the Starry Sea Train crosses ultra-long space and time distances, it will also transfer through the hidden world.
The starry sea trains that can travel on the "Hidden World Rails" all have hidden world carriages, that is, the first 100 train numbers.
There are no hidden carriages in trains numbered 100 and later.
Therefore, the Xinghai trains after No. 100 are more like "regional" trains. They usually do not travel across long distances in space and time, but only operate within a certain area.
For example, the No. 199 sub-train where the owl and the starworm are located belongs to this category. It only has ordinary carriages but no hidden carriages.
……
Speaking of the "Hidden World Carriage", we have to talk about the relationship between it and the "hidden world".
"But before that, we need to clarify a concept. What exactly is the situation in the hidden world?"
The owl paused for a few seconds before slowly answering: "...nothing."
“I just said before that the hidden world is like a special world, but it is not a special world because there is nothing in the hidden world.”
The hidden world is not like other special worlds, with natural life, complete laws, and operating logic. There is nothing in the hidden world, just nothingness and chaos. In terms of emptiness, it is even worse than the void.
The only man-made structure is...the railroad tracks.
The desolate hidden world is covered with railway tracks, which were built by the Star Lord with supreme power and are specifically used for the passage of the Star Sea Train.
It can be said that seclusion from the world is totally unsuitable for long-term life.
Because there are no basic conditions for life to survive there, but the "Hidden Carriage" is different.
The hidden carriage is a completely vivid world, where you can see all kinds of creatures and landforms, and extraordinary cities are as densely populated as stars.
"You can completely regard the hidden world carriages as extraordinary worlds."
Now let’s turn around and answer the question raised earlier: What is the relationship between “hidden carriage” and “hidden world”?
The answer is: two sides of the same coin.
"Your Excellency can understand the 'Hidden World Carriage' as an... otherworld specially created by the Star Lord."
"However, this other world cannot exist alone in the hidden world, and needs to be attached to the Star Sea Train. Therefore, it is called a 'carriage' and is part of the Star Sea Train."
However, although the Hidden World Carriage is attached to the Star Sea Train, its actual location is actually still in the Hidden World.
When the Star Sea Train is in the normal world, the hidden world carriage cannot be opened or entered, but it still exists in this Star Sea Train.
It can be understood that the hidden world carriage is attached to the Star Sea Train, but it itself is in a higher dimension.
Only when the Star Sea Train enters the hidden world can you enter the hidden world carriage freely.
At the same time, passengers in the hidden carriage can also be teleported to hidden carriages of other numbers.
for example.
Both Train No. 10 and Train No. 11 have hidden carriages. When the Star Sea Trains No. 10 and No. 11 are in the normal world, the two hidden carriages are relatively independent and closed, and cannot convey messages or transmit messages to each other.
But when Train 10 and Train 11 entered the hidden world.
The teleportation function of the hidden carriages in the two trains was activated, and people in hidden carriage No. 10 could go to hidden carriage No. 11 at will.
Each carriage has a different appearance. The hidden carriage No. 10 is an ice field and snow mountain, while the hidden carriage No. 11 is an endless water area. Through teleportation, you can see the appearances of different carriages and communicate with different ethnic groups and passengers.
In other words, every time a star train enters the hidden world, it is equivalent to opening up a boundless world.
The owl continued, "If I just tell you about it, you may be confused. But if you can come to the Hidden Carriage and experience it yourself, you will naturally understand the various mysteries in the Hidden Carriage."
The owl in the illusion said this and took out a black card from his pocket.
Upon closer inspection, the card it took out was the Hidden World Card.
"And the Hidden World Card is an invitation to you to enter the Hidden World Carriage."
"I said before that the Hidden World Card is the Star Lord's investment in the Seed of Potential. This is not a lie."
"There are tribes from different worlds in the Hidden World Carriage, there are extraordinary cities, and there are mysterious passengers. You can obtain various supplies that you can't get normally in the Hidden World Carriage, including some extraordinary treasures that are extinct in your world."
"Of course, the premise is that you can afford the price of the transaction."
"The invitation letter is a ticket given by the Star Lord to enter the Hidden World Carriage. However, whether you can gain benefits in the Hidden World Carriage depends on your luck and strength."
At this point, the owl paused deliberately to give them some time to think.
Ingres roughly understood what the owl meant.
Simply put, the invitation letter is the Hidden World Card itself, and the Hidden World Card allows you to enter the Hidden World Carriage.
As for the background of the hidden carriage that Owl just mentioned, it is actually not important. All you need to know is that the hidden carriage is in the hidden world.
After entering the hidden carriage, Angel can come into contact with different ethnic groups and exchange supplies from other worlds with them.
This is undoubtedly a good thing.
but……
Angel always felt that something was not right.
At present, it sounds like the hidden carriage described by the owl is the place where he goes to exchange supplies, search for treasures and communicate. But is such a place really safe?
Just when Angel was doubting, the phantom owl spoke again:
"I guess you must be thinking about how to use the Hidden World Card to enter the Hidden World Carriage?"
Angel: “…” No, I’m worried about safety.
Unfortunately, the owl's image was a "video", and the owl didn't know what Angel was thinking, and continued to talk to himself according to his own thoughts:
"How do I enter the Hidden World Carriage? It's actually very simple. As long as you have a Hidden World Card, you will be able to sense when the Starry Sea Train No. 100 comes into the surrounding one dimension. Then you can directly activate the Hidden World Card and use the Starry Sea Train as a springboard to enter the Hidden World Carriage."
"It's very simple, right? We don't even need to enter the Star Ocean Train. We can teleport across a one-dimensional space and time distance."
One-dimensional, it sounds like it's very close.
Quite far actually.
The distance from the Southern Region to the Ancient Asia Realm is roughly the same as the one-dimensional space-time distance. If one were to travel through the void, with Angel's speed, it would probably take about one to two years to arrive.
Being able to directly activate the Hidden World Card and enter the Hidden World Carriage across a one-dimensional distance is undoubtedly a miracle.
Owl: "I just said that under normal circumstances, when the Star Sea Train is running in the Ordinary World, the Hidden World Carriage cannot enter or exit. But as long as you have a Hidden World Card, as long as there is a Star Sea Train with the first 100 numbers nearby, you can directly enter the Hidden World Carriage without any restrictions."
"The Star Lord didn't create many of these hidden cards that can break through restrictions, and even fewer have been issued."
"All those who possess the Hidden World Card are either core members of the major miracle forces, or potential seeds like you."
“So, I hope you will cherish this opportunity.”
Owl said this and suddenly changed the subject.
"Oh, by the way, I have to remind you too."
"The Hidden World Card is anonymous, so even if you give it to someone else, it can still be used. In other words, if other people know you have a Hidden World Card, they will most likely snatch it away."
"That's why I told you from the beginning that this is highly confidential and must not be leaked."
Currently, only two types of people can obtain the Hidden World Card issued by the Star Lord: the core members of the Miracle Force, and potential seeds like Angel.
As a member of the Miracle Force, no one dared to snatch the former's card even if he paraded around the city with it.
But Ingres was different.
He has no background and no strength. Once he is found to have the Hidden World Card, he will definitely become the target of public criticism.
Hearing this, Ingres finally understood.
So, it turns out that the "danger" he was imagining was actually the Hidden World Card itself?
When Angel was thinking this, the owl suddenly said:
"I almost forgot. Each carriage has its own rules. If you violate the rules, you will be at risk of death. The rules change every once in a while. The reason is... because the rules come from the conductor. When the conductor changes, the rules also change."
"If you go to the Hidden Carriage, please inquire about the rules as soon as possible and do not violate them."
"Besides that, the interior of the hidden carriage itself is also dangerous, so please be careful if you go there."
Angel: "..."
It must be said that the more the owl listened to the words that followed, the less Angel wanted to go.
The owl thought for a moment and continued, "If you want to enter the hidden carriage regularly, then building a platform is definitely better than waiting in vain."
Under normal circumstances, even if you have a Hidden World Card and want to enter the Hidden World Carriage, you can only rely on luck and wait for the Star Sea Train to pass by nearby.
But if a platform is built, the Star Sea Train will naturally approach on its own initiative.
At that time, it will be more convenient to enter the hidden carriage.
"Of course, this is just my suggestion. You are free to decide whether to adopt it or not." Owl: "And..."
"Wang Wang Wang-"
The owl seemed about to say something else, but was interrupted by a series of calls.
"My old friend is urging me..." The owl was startled: "It's almost time. The Xinghai Train can't stay in one place for too long. I must get the train running and leave the gap area, otherwise..."
What will happen?
Everyone was stunned, but the owl did not finish his words. Instead, he quickly said, "This is the only image I can leave behind."
At this point, the vision of the owl had begun to become blurry.
Only a little sound remained in the air.
"Finally, regarding the star worm... that was a fragment of its wandering consciousness..."
"Although it is just a free consciousness, it is very important... I hope you will not destroy it..."
"When the next deputy train No. 199 arrives, if it can be restored to the main body's consciousness... then the Starworm will compensate you..."
Intermittent voices were heard, gradually becoming fainter and more stuck, and finally disappearing along with the picture.
Wait until the moment the illusion disappears completely.
All the rituals on the altar gradually became dim, as if all the activity had dissipated.
Even the sheen of the Hidden World Card had faded a little.
"It should be over."
Angel raised his hand slightly, and the Hidden World Card floated into his hand.
Then he turned to look at Laplace and Gleipnir.
"What do you think?"
Gleipnir thought for a moment and spoke first, "I can't tell if there is something fishy about the Hidden World Card. However, the things the owl just said are quite intriguing to me."
"Since there are countless extraordinary cities there, accommodating countless ethnic groups, perhaps I can find more Star Books there."
“But that’s just for me.”
"If it's you..." Gleipnir looked at Angel: "My advice is, don't take risks unless necessary."
Don't listen to Owl's description of the secluded carriage, because convenience is inevitably accompanied by danger. What's more, Angel is carrying a "treasure", and once it is exposed, the consequences will be embarrassing.
"So my suggestion is that you don't go. But if there really is a Star Sea Train with the first 100 numbers coming nearby, you can give me the Hidden World Card and I'll go."
Gleipnir expressed his interest in the Hidden World Card very directly.
Angel didn't say anything, but turned his head to look at Laplace: "What about you, do you have any ideas?"
Laplace did not answer Angel immediately, but glanced at Gleipnir and said calmly: "Do you think you can keep the 'Hidden World Card' if you go?"
Gleipnir: "You know, I have... the Star Hiding Technique."
Laplace shook his head: "No matter how powerful your concealment technique is, it is meaningless."
Gleipnir's eyes flashed with confusion.
Laplace whispered, "Have you forgotten where we are now?"
Gleipnir was stunned for a moment, then he whispered, "Is there something wrong with where we are? We are in the Crystal Plains of Dreams... Eh? Crystal Plains of Dreams!"
Gleipnir suddenly realized: "We are conscious beings now!"
Laplace nodded: "Yes, the Hidden World Card is also in the Dream Crystal. So if you want to borrow the Hidden World Card to go to the Hidden World Carriage, you can only use your current consciousness body."
"Let's not talk about whether the consciousness can survive after leaving the Dream Crystal. Even if it can exist stably, you, as a consciousness, won't be in danger if you go to the Hidden World Carriage. I guess any gust of wind in there can blow you away."
