Chapter 3803 Communication Ring
"What is it doing..." Angel asked Xiaolu while looking at Bambu.
Xiaolu smiled meaningfully: "This is Xiaolu registering you, sir, and recording the information on your communicator."
"Communicator?" Angel murmured to himself, "Using these horns to make a communicator?"
"Sir, you also know the angle code?" Xiaolu looked at Angel in surprise. Although the angle code can be seen everywhere in the Modern City, most people only think that it is a kind of foreign rune. It is rare to find someone who can accurately tell the angle code.
Angel: “I’ve heard of it.”
Xiaolu looked at Angel thoughtfully, and then continued: "These corner codes are not used to make communicators, but to record and transmit data."
"As for the communicator itself, it will be handed over to you, sir, after the data is transferred."
Angel did not continue to ask questions, but watched Bambu's operation silently.
He originally wanted to try to see if he could use a bird's eye view to get some clues about the angle code arrangement, but unfortunately, he had no understanding of angle codes at all, so naturally he couldn't understand them.
However, Angel still carefully wrote down the changing angle codes around Bambu, preparing to hand them over to Turing for analysis later.
"Due to limited conditions, the transmission of information is a bit slow. Please wait a moment, sir." Xiaolu said apologetically.
Angel shook his head nonchalantly and continued to record Bambu's movements. He curiously asked, "The Hermits were able to break through the technological barriers of Modern City and possess their own communication technology. It seems that the Hermits have a strong accumulation of technology behind them."
Judging from the various details so far, although the Hermit Society is only a "start-up" organization, there must be a powerful force behind it.
The background of this force cannot be underestimated.
Angel wanted to find out where the roots of the Hermit Society came from. Was it the organizer behind the three major events? Or was it a subordinate organization founded by a certain "king"? Or was it from a distant foreign country?
Xiaolu could naturally hear the inquiry in Angell's words. She chuckled and said, "Communication technology itself is not difficult. With the existing equipment in Modern City, it is very easy to implement. However, communication technology requires the use of media. Whether it is a physical medium, such as underground cables, or a virtual medium, such as ripples, it has been occupied by several major guilds and consortiums in Modern City."
“That’s why those studios or small organizations can’t use communication technology.”
"However, our Hermit Order's communication technology is different from theirs. It does not occupy all the current media, but opens up new tracks."
"That's why we can make communicators."
Angel was a little surprised. Xiaolu seemed a little too frank: "You even told me such a secret. Aren't you afraid that I will tell others?"
Xiaolu said bluntly without any concern: "It doesn't matter if you tell others. I can even tell you directly that our communication medium is... Fashion Monster."
"Using fashion monsters as relay stations, connecting all communicators. This is a special technology, very special, but not unique. Every organization has records of it."
Even if they are recorded, they cannot be used because they require a specific fashion monster, and this fashion monster also needs to be matched with a specific magic combination.
Generally speaking, these magic combinations cannot be achieved overnight and require a lot of skill practice.
This combination would cost millions of Modern Coins. If you are unlucky, it would cost tens of millions of Modern Coins...
The organizations behind the three major competitions already have cheap and stable communication technology, so they naturally would not covet this expensive and unstable biological medium-based relay station.
That's why Xiaolu said it so generously, not afraid that Angel would leak it at all.
Even Xiaolu was hoping that Angel would leak the information, perhaps it could attract more magicians to join the Hermit Society. After all, there were not many companies in Modern City that could break the telecommunications monopoly.
"Using fashion monsters as a medium of communication..." Angel didn't expect that fashion monsters could also be used as relay stations.
Fashion magic involves all aspects and goes deep into the underlying logic of the world.
Angel became more and more curious about where this world was.
"Yes, sir. Now you should be curious about what kind of fashionable monster can be used as a communication medium?" Xiaolu joked with a smile.
Angel nodded subconsciously.
After nodding, he pretended to come back to his senses: "Are you complaining that I ask too many questions?"
Xiaolu shook his head: "Of course I don't dislike it. I am happy to answer any questions from members."
Angell: “Including this question?”
Xiaolu: "I think it's better to let you find out this question yourself. The answer to this question is not a secret in the club. As long as you come to the Hermit Club regularly, you will naturally know it."
Xiaolu did not give a direct answer, but her words clearly showed her intention to win over Ingres by asking him to "come more often".
Angel naturally knew what Xiaolu meant, he just smiled and didn't make any promises.
About two minutes later, Bambu finally completed the data transfer, and a large amount of corner codes poured back into Bambu's butterfly wings like a torrent of light.
Among its butterfly wings filled with starlight, there is a new glowing star.
This star point continued to attract other star patterns around it. In just a few seconds, it became a "star-like" existence with dozens of companion stars rotating around it.
The whole process was very short, but Bambu looked very tired. Originally, he was standing on Xiaolu's shoulders, but now he sat down weakly, and even pulled Xiaolu's hair for support.
Xiaolu touched Bambu lovingly, then turned to look at Angel: "The information has been transferred, sir, you have now officially become a member of our Hermit Order."
Xiaolu stood up and bowed deeply to Angel: "The Hermit Society welcomes you to join."
The moment Xiaolu finished speaking, the curtains around the pavilion suddenly disappeared, and in the sky outside, star-like spots of light exploded one by one.
In an instant, colorful fireworks, accompanied by various ribbons, appeared in Ingres' eyes.
The loud music also breaks the quiet atmosphere at the right time.
Along with the exciting music, even the flowers in the sky garden began to bloom one after another, emitting rich fragrance.
Ingres looked around the pavilion, and the neon words "Welcome aboard" were holographically projected. Although it looked a bit tacky, it had to be said that the sense of ceremony was full.
Also in this ritual atmosphere, a figure walked out of the darkness.
He tapped the glowing pages of the book in the air lightly, and they landed in the pavilion like a breeze.
Angel looked up and saw the man in a suit who had talked to Xiaolu in the attic before.
Xiaolu had previously told the people of the Hermit Society that she would take care of everything, and if someone really needed to step forward, then let the man in the suit do it.
Now, when he really appeared on the stage, Angle kind of understood why Little Green said that.
His suit was very well-fitting, and the style matched his temperament. His every move was elegant. This reminded Angel of the butlers in some old noble families.
As soon as she appears on the stage, one can feel that she is elegant and well-educated, but there is something behind her.
"Welcome sir to join the Hermit Order. I am the chief steward of the Hermit Order. You can call me Karen."
An elegant spinning and chest-touching gesture.
Angel also nodded and greeted.
Karen smiled softly, and his other hand reached out from behind. Previously, it was an empty hand, but now there was a tray with a silver ring on it.
Xiaolu came up, gently held Bambu, and let Bambu come to the ring.
Bambu held the ring on the tray, and the butterfly wings kept flickering. After a while, the glowing "star" on the butterfly wings slowly broke free from the constraints of the wings and sank into the ring.
A colorful spot of light appeared on the originally featureless circular ring.
After doing all this, Bambu collapsed on the tray, seemingly exhausted.
Xiaolu took the ring from the tray, while Kalyan took back the tray and took out a mini candy from his pocket and handed it to Bambu to give it some strength.
The whole process was extremely smooth. Before Angel could even react, Xiaolu handed him the ring.
"This is the communicator." Xiaolu: "Sir, your information has been entered into it. This is also the sign that you have become a member of the Hermit Society."
Angel took the ring and sensed it subconsciously.
There was nothing special about the material of the ring, nor were there any signs of "refining". The only abnormalities that could be sensed were two points. First, there was a dense patch of corners on the inner ring. Second, there was a bright spot of light on the outer ring.
In the former, there was a faint flow of energy, but Angel could not analyze it; in the latter, the flow of energy was very obvious, and this energy was vaguely connected to somewhere in the Hermit Order.
Angel guessed that this place where energy was connected was the so-called "Fashion Monster Relay Station".
Angel looked in the direction of energy flow from a God's perspective and found that the final destination of the energy was in the attic.
However, the invisible energy was not directly connected to the "fashion monster" in the attic, but flowed into the body of the sleeping little witch.
It is highly likely that the fashion monster that serves as a relay station belongs to this little witch.
When he learned this information, Angel couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
This little witch not only has a pet like "Bambu", but also owns the "Fashion Monster Relay Station" that is envied by all major organizations.
Could it be another existence similar to "Zuniga"?
If that's true, then this little witch must have NPC information... Maybe I can take a look at her information later.
Angel didn't think for too long. After collecting his thoughts, he looked at Xiaolu: "Is this ring a communicator? How do I operate it?"
Xiaolu stretched out her hand, and there was a ring on her hand. She summoned a magic book, drew a trace of energy from the magic book and injected it into the light spot on the ring.
The next second, a holographic projection appeared in front of Xiaolu.
Xiaolu explained: "You only need to inject 1 point of energy into it to activate it, whether it is a heat point or other types of energy."
Angel also tried it, and sure enough, when he injected 1 point of energy, a holographic projection appeared in front of him.
However, the holographic projection was almost blank, with only an icon in the middle that showed "a person wearing a wide-brimmed hat covering half of his face".
Angel subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch the icon, but his hand touched the air instead.
Angel: "..."
Xiaolu: "Sir, this logo is the contact information of the Hermit Society. You cannot touch it directly. You need to continue to inject energy and use energy to control and touch this logo."
Xiaolu gave a simple demonstration and Ingres followed suit.
After studying for a while, Angel discovered that injecting energy into the holographic projection can indeed sense the existence of the logo. However, if you want to control the energy to leave the body and go to the location of the logo, it also requires certain operations.
Moreover, during the out-of-body operation, energy points will continue to be consumed.
If you fail to touch the logo before the energy points are used up, you will have to try again.
With Angel's powerful control over energy, he could easily touch the logo even if he only injected 0.1 energy.
But after all, his character was a "newcomer", so he thought about it and injected 1 point of energy, until the very end, when he touched the logo.
When the energy point touched the logo and activated, the holographic projection suddenly went dark, and then a projection of a woman in uniform appeared:
"Hello, this is Hermitage receptionist No. 019. I need a transfer service. Please tell me the code name of the person you are transferring to. If you need consulting services or other services, you can ask me directly."
Listening to the sound coming from the holographic projection, Angel's expression was full of silence.
This kind of déjà vu...Angel has seen a lot of it on the holographic tablet.
Is this the convergence of the development of the times?
"Here is a reminder to member Mr. Angel that energy points will continue to be consumed during communication. It seems that Mr. Angel's energy points are running low and the signal is stuck. Please replenish them in time..."
Before he could finish his words, the holographic projection ended automatically.
Xiaolu, who witnessed all this, said at the right time: "I just sensed that the energy point you injected was about 1 point, and only 0.1 was left when you touched the logo. 0.1 energy point can only maintain the connection to the information desk for about seconds. If you want to maintain the connection, you need to continue to consume energy points."
Ingres actually guessed it.
But Angel didn't expect that this communicator would consume so many energy points.
Xiaolu's explanation is that another reason why using Fashion Monsters as repeaters to maintain communications is expensive is that once communication begins, Fashion Monsters will continue to consume energy points.
It is difficult for it to bear the consumption of the entire communication network by itself, so only the users can bear part of it.
This is also the reason why Angel needs to continuously consume energy when using the communicator.
What if you don’t have any energy points? Xiaolu also gave a solution, which is to use membership points.
During the communication process, membership points are basically equivalent to energy points.
In short, if the Hermit Society wants to use communication tools, it will inevitably cost a certain price, unless the communication is sent by the Hermit Society to the outside, then there is no charge.
