"Last one." Angor rubbed his swollen temples and looked at the corpse crystal in his hand.
Pulling someone was easy, but locating the slumbering soul inside the corpse crystal was very taxing.
The soul ripples were so weak that Angor could hardly locate them with his spirit power alone.
In other words, the soul ripples were at the level of cells.
Angor's spirit power, on the other hand, was at the level of the naked eye.
It was very difficult for Angor to locate the tiny cells with his eyes alone. He had to use a "microscope", which Laplace was now doing. She would circle the area while Angor worked on it carefully.
Even with Laplace's help, Angor still had to find the soul ripples himself. Each time, he had to refine his spirit power even more before he could find the soul ripples.
The process was extremely taxing.
Angor had to do it three hundred times in a row. Even if he was made of iron, he could barely stand it anymore.
Luckily, there was only one left.
Angor handed the corpse crystal to Laplace and forced himself to look at the screen.
"The last one is called Dida. She's a woman … a famous musician who hibernated in Year 545 of the crystal calendar …" Angor felt even more dizzy. "The first batch is focused on construction. What's the use of musicians?"
Laplace was trying to locate Dida's soul, but her spirit power was much greater than Angor's. She could even respond to Angor while doing so.
"Year 525 of the crystal calendar? Isn't that the same era as Yudoda?"
Angor thought carefully and realized that they were indeed from the same era.
Yudoda, who was known as the most beautiful Crystaleye in history, hibernated in Year 553, which was very close to Dida's time. They should be from the same era.
Angor considered. "Well, they're not that useless. They can work together as a cheerleading team."
"One uses her beauty to motivate people, while the other uses her inspiring music to encourage people."
With that in mind, Angor began to believe that the first batch of people could be useful.
Ten seconds later, Laplace found the location of Dida's soul and gave it to Angor.
Another 20 seconds later, he sensed Dida's soul and used Nightmare Dream to send her into the dream bridge.
Once he was done, he let out a long sigh of relief. "Finally, it's done."
He stretched himself and threw himself on the sofa without caring about his image. While meditating, he opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling, trying to get rid of his tired spirit.
After lying on the bed for five minutes, he finally felt less tired. "When I get back today, I'll figure out how to locate and recruit people in batches."
He wouldn't be able to take it if he continued to dawdle like today.
It wasn't that he didn't have the patience. In fact, if he was asked to recruit hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of people, he could still patiently recruit them.
However, the number of "zombie crystals" in Crystal City was more than just tens of thousands. They were counted in "hundreds of millions". He had no idea how to locate "hundreds of millions" of souls.
No matter what, he had to figure out a way to recruit people in batches.
Laplace understood Angor's feelings, but she was still curious about one thing. "Where are you going to start?"
"Let's start with the microscope," he blurted out without thinking.
A microscope? Laplace was stunned as he didn't understand the meaning of this word.
Angor also realized that he misspoke. He sat up and cleared his throat. "I mean, I'm going to create a device that can detect soul ripples in detail."
Laplace nodded. As an alchemist, Angor had to start from an alchemy point of view.
She didn't know much about alchemy, but as far as she knew, every time an alchemist developed a new instrument or refined a new product, there would be a few months, a few years, or even a few decades in advance …
Could the current research and development really catch up?
Although Laplace had doubts in her heart, she did not ask directly. Instead, she asked tactfully, "The research of this new instrument should be very difficult, right?"
"Not really. I don't know much about souls, but there are Soul Manipulators in Brute Cavern. I'll go back to the dream wasteland later and ask them."
Laplace asked, "You can refine it just by asking?"
Angor nodded subconsciously. "Something like that."
As long as he knew the reason, he could craft a supernatural artifact right away?! He didn't even need to shake it before casting a spell? He didn't need to figure out the reason or draw a sketch before finding the material?
Laplace didn't think this was the same as the alchemists she knew.
But when she thought about how Angor managed to craft the Unbreakable Tea-Tea Mirror in just a few hours, she didn't think too much about it.
Laplace let out a deep sigh inwardly.
She looked at Angor's calm face and decided not to ask further. Since Angor was so confident, she would wait and see.
Laplace asked, "How's your recovery going? Do you want to check the Dream Crystal? "
"It's about time. Let's go."
It was impossible to get rid of his mental exhaustion in a short time. However, he was mostly fine now.
At least he didn't feel tired anymore.
Besides, entering the Dream Crystal was like sleeping, which could help him recover from his exhaustion.
Before entering the Dream Crystal, Angor glanced at Boneda who was standing on the other side of the Crystal Cluster Space.
Angor considered for a moment before speaking.
"Do you want to check the Dream Crystal?"
…
Two minutes later, Angor, Laplace, and Boneda logged into the Dream Crystal at the same time.
Location: Outside Bunny Town, beside Jota.
Jota wasn't surprised by their sudden appearance. Now that everyone was here, it wasn't surprising that Laplace and Angor would enter the Dream Crystal.
However, he was a little surprised to see his secretary, Boneda, entering the Dream Crystal as well.
Boneda chuckled awkwardly. "I didn't want to go at first."
Bonida snuck a glance at Angor as she spoke.
Jota thought for a moment and realized what was going on.
Just like when he went online with Giant City Spirit, he also ran to a safe place before going online. Now that both Laplace and Angor had entered the Dream Crystal, leaving Bonida alone in the outside world would be a great risk.
Therefore, Angor decided to let Boneda go with them.
Jota thought he already knew the answer. However, that wasn't the case.
He only brought Boneda into the Dream Crystal because she was Jota's secretary.
As the secretary of the highest leader of the Crystal Eye Race, her overall planning ability was definitely online. She was able to connect the dots and make the best arrangements for the three hundred Crystal Eye Race clansmen.
After all, Jota was a Prophet and the spirit of the giant city. Angor couldn't just let them do all the work.
That was why he wanted Bonida to serve as a bridge between the two.
As for his and Laplace's safety … well, he wasn't too worried. Jota wouldn't do anything to them. Besides, Laplace had a lot of avatars. He could just send one of them to deal with the problem.
Jota didn't know what was going on, but having Bonida online did relieve some of Jota's pressure.
Jota planned to check on the dead Crystaleye clansmen himself. But when he thought about how those strange geniuses would keep asking him questions, Jota felt a headache coming.
There were many questions he didn't know how to answer.
Luckily, Boneda was online now, so he could leave it to her.
Jota gave a simple order and immediately became a hands-off boss. Bonida was still shocked by her surroundings and the historical figures who had been "revived."
However, before she could finish her surprise, Jota gave her another task.
Boneda didn't want to, but this was her job after all. She pulled herself together and nodded. She put the unnecessary thoughts aside and began her work.
First, she had to take notes.
While Bonida was busy working, Jota came to Angor and thanked him for his help.
Most of the Crystaleye clansmen were rebellious, which gave Jota a headache. But he had to admit that it was great to see these historical figures standing in front of him.
Jota couldn't hold back his excitement.
They didn't use the Ceremony of Wonder to take over a young man's body. Instead, they were reborn in this new world with their original faces.
This made Jota feel both excited and relieved.
He supported the Ceremony of Wonder in the past, but he still felt a little guilty when he saw the young man's death. Now, when he thought about how the young man wouldn't be trapped in winter, and how his dead soul could live forever in the Dream Crystal, how could he not feel relieved? How could he not feel?
And all these feelings were combined into one word: "Thank you."
Thank you to Angor and Laplace.
Angor simply waved a hand to show that he didn't mind. It was a win-win situation anyway.
While chatting with Jota, Angor also observed the three hundred glittering warriors not far away.
They were clearly in different camps.
The Crystaleye soldiers were in a square formation, while the strange geniuses were in another camp.
Angor could tell at a glance because the Crystaleye soldiers were disciplined, law-abiding, and quiet. In contrast, the strange geniuses were more chaotic.
They each went their own way and did their own things.
Fortunately, they were disciplined by Evodda, so they didn't wander off.
Angor took a quick look and withdrew his gaze. Although these people all looked different and dressed differently, they were all crystal people in his eyes. There was no way to differentiate them.
He had originally wanted to see how beautiful the so-called most beautiful member of the Crystal Eye Race in history was. However, after searching and comparing them one by one, he realized that they were not as beautiful.
He couldn't find them at all.
He couldn't even tell their gender.
In this case, it seemed that there was no point in looking at "Yu Duoda".
He withdrew his gaze and looked around.
The appearance of the three hundred Crystaleye Race people attracted the attention of the people of Rabbit Town. Some bold people had already approached them and tried to talk to them.
Jota and the city spirit didn't stop them. Communication was inevitable. Besides, with the help of these natives, the Crystaleye Race people could quickly integrate into the local life.
They even hoped that more natives would come so that they could help answer the questions of the strange geniuses.
However, only a few dared to do so. Most of Rabbit Town's residents only peeked at them from the Rabbit Building. They didn't dare to approach them.
While the residents of Rabbit Town were talking to the new visitors, Boneda was almost done with the count.
The first step was to count the number of people and register their names.
Therefore, Boneda was very fast.
There would often be some "troubles" when counting geniuses, such as all sorts of questions. Not only would they be asked about the Dream Crystal, but they would also be asked about what happened to them after they died. They would even ask about their loved ones, relatives, and enemies.
Faced with a series of questions, Bonida showed her high standards. Her way of dealing with it was … to ignore it.
These people were all famous historical figures anyway. She could recognize them at a glance. There was no need to ask them personally.
She just recorded their names in her book.
Soon, she finished recording the number of people in the geniuses' camp. Then, it was the crystal eye race's guards.
Facing the guards, Bonida recorded even faster. Their discipline was strict, and there were even general-level officials leading them. Even though they were from different eras, they still showed great military discipline.
Boneda's recording was done without any hindrance.
However, after recording, Boneda felt that something was wrong.
Weren't there two hundred Crystaleye soldiers? Why was there one missing? Was the number "two hundred" not a real number but a general one? One hundred ninety-nine was equivalent to two hundred?
Boneda wanted to ask the Prophet, but after thinking about it, she decided to ask the soldiers first.
They didn't revive individually. Instead, they entered the Dream Crystal as a whole. If there was a shortage of soldiers, they would know best.
Boneda reported the situation to the leading general. With the general's help, each team started to report their members.
After a short while, Bonida got a result.
"There's really one person missing."
The leader of one of the explorers was missing. His team members, on the other hand, were all alive.
Bonida asked carefully and confirmed that the name of the pioneer team's leader was … Red Gemata.
