Chapter 2685 Twin Mirror

When Angell saw the abyss-like black hole in the mirror, he knew that he was being watched.

Before that, the Black Earl had seen this mirror when he entered the ladder of the hanging prison, and even left a mark, but nothing happened to the Black Earl. Why did something happen to him?

Comparing the difference before and after they entered, the answer is actually very obvious. There is only one reason, that is, the oil painting.

Angell destroyed the oil painting and took away the log inside. Obviously, it stimulated a certain existence hidden in the mirror. Once Angell touched the mirror again, he was immediately noticed by the other party.

The dark abyss presented in the dressing mirror must have been done by the other party.

The purpose is nothing more than to "force" or "entice" Angell to enter the mirror. As for the end after entering, it is definitely not a good thing.

Therefore, when Angell saw the abyss passage in the mirror, he chose to retreat at the first time and blocked the mirror at the same time.

As Jon often said: A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. How could Angel, who understood the principle of "not doing anything but dying", be so reckless as to wipe the mirror directly?

Before blowing off the dust, he made preparations and blocked the mirror.

Mirror blocking involves the knowledge of space and mirror image, which happens to be the topic Angel has been studying recently. In order to study this topic, he has repeatedly entered and exited the mirror space of Mirror Grudge, so it is not difficult for him to block the mirror.

The mirror is the interface connecting two different "spaces", which is the most fragile. Once blocked, it is difficult to break.

Angel responded quite promptly. Not long after he closed the mirror, a hand came out of the abyss black hole.

This hand is made of translucent gems, which flicker with a faint light inside and look translucent. However, the color of the gemstones that make up this hand is bright red, as if it has just been stained with fresh blood.

The target of the gem hand is very clear, that is Angel.

It is extremely fast, ready to directly pass through the mirror and pull Angel into the mirror. However, the moment its hand touched the mirror, it was bounced back by an invisible force field.

This force field was exactly the mirror blockade created by Angel.

The gem hand was unwilling to be blocked and tried to break the force field, but no matter how hard it tried, the mirror remained intact.

Seeing that Angel was so close but could not break through the mirror, the gem hand had no choice but to beat the mirror in anger.

In the end, when Angel was ready to leave, the gem hand did something that surprised him.

The gem hand stretched out its little finger and poked the mirror fiercely. The little finger broke directly in the middle, and liquid like blood flowed out of the broken gap.

The gem hand directly pinched the broken little finger, used the "blood" inside as ink, and wrote a row of bloody words on the mirror.

Angel understood what he read, but the font was like a child's... and it was written backwards.

Angel didn't expect a monster that used his finger as a pen to understand what text mirroring was. After reading the words, he walked out of the room.

...

"Blood words? What did it say?" Black Count asked in confusion.

Angel: "A threat without emotion."

When Black Count heard Angel read the blood words, he was stunned for most of the day. If he had a body, his brows would have been furrowed like a mountain.

"What does this mean? Permanent residence permit?"

Angel shrugged: "Wrong word."

The gem hand not only wrote in a childish way and didn't pay attention to the direction of the mirror, but also made a wrong word. The harsh words "stay forever" were written as "permanent residence permit".

In common text, these two characters are very similar, but one is a harsh word with "emotion", and the so-called "stay forever" means "you can't leave, die here"; the other is a neutral noun without any emotional stance: "permanent residence permit".

In other words, what the gem hand originally wrote should be: leave here, or stay forever.

It's a pity that the harsh words softened as soon as the wrong word appeared. That's why Angel said it was an emotionless threat.

After knowing the truth, the Black Count was also stunned. In his opinion, the existence in the mirror was either the so-called "Mirror Demon" or the "Mirror Hider" who led the Demon God believers to steal the holy objects.

And these two, whether it was the Mirror Demon or the "Mirror Hider" who was suspected to be a high-level official in Naraku City, were both smart people in the Black Count's opinion.

Otherwise, how to brainwash the Demon God believers?

But now the owner of the gem hand looks very unintelligent...even a little stupid.

This is a huge gap from what the Black Count imagined.

"Can you tell what kind of creature the other party is? Is it a human or a monster?" Black Count asked.

Angel was about to answer when Dox's voice came from outside: "Black, Jin? Are you still in the house?"

Angel glanced at the Black Count and whispered: "Go out first, talk while walking."

Black Count had no objection, and their conversation could not be hidden from the wise master. In other words, when Angel went to wipe the mirror, the wise master must have seen it through the God's perspective of the magic array, so there was no need to hide it.

After leaving the room, as expected, Angel immediately met the eyes of the wise master.

The wise master looked at Angel quietly, although he did not show too much expression, but the deep meaning revealed in his eyes was undoubtedly telling Angel: I saw everything you said and did.

Angel had no choice. This was the home ground of the Wise Lord, who had been planning for ten thousand years. He had too much advantage. It was difficult for them to take over here.

This was probably why Dodolo reminded him that "the wise are not stupid". If you want to make trouble in the underground sewer, you can't get around the Wise Lord unless you want to overturn the table.

How to deal with the relationship with the Wise Lord is actually the situation they will face next.

Angel sighed softly in his heart and looked away.

"Sir, are we going to the third floor now?" Seeing Angel coming out of the house, Kael immediately stepped forward and asked.

After a pause, Kael looked at the end: "Or, sir, do you want to go to the void here to take a look?"

Go to the void to take a look? Why?

Angel was stunned for a moment and didn't react. It wasn't until he saw Kael's solemn expression that he suddenly realized it.

Kael probably thought that Angel had looked at the void on the left road, and he might also look at the void on the right, so he asked this question.

"No, just go back."

"Go back?" Kael asked in confusion: "Are you not going to the third floor?"

"I think so. No need to go."

"Ah?" Kael was just asking subconsciously. In his opinion, since he didn't find the wood spirit, he must go to the third floor. After all, the Black Earl also left many marks on the third floor. Maybe the wood spirit is among those marks.

But he didn't expect that he thought Angel had made a slip of the tongue, but now Angel directly stated... not going to the third floor? !

"Why?" It was Dox who asked this question.

But not only Dox, everyone else, even the wise master, was puzzled as to why Angel chose not to go to the third floor?

In the face of everyone's doubts, Angel gave a plausible explanation: "The wood spirit should be on the second floor, but the specific location needs to be confirmed."

"The wood spirit is on the second floor? How did you come to this conclusion?" Dox asked in confusion.

Angel was silent for a moment, then uttered a word that Dox was quite familiar with: "Inspiration."

Dox looked stunned: "Inspiration?! So careless?"

Angel: "If this is called carelessness, then you should have been living carelessly all along."

Dox scratched his nose, feeling guilty, but he really couldn't believe the inspiration that Angel mentioned.

Angel: "My judgment is that it should be on the second floor. If you can't find the wood spirit, it's a waste of time to go to the third floor. It's better to leave."

Angel said this and looked at Dox: "It's just right. If you can't find the wood spirit, you can also save more time to explore the third floor."

After speaking, Angel passed everyone and walked to the front.

Everyone looked at Angel's back, glanced at each other, and finally had to follow.

...

Angel didn't walk far when he heard a rustling sound in his ear. Looking back, he saw that the Black Earl had already flown to his side.

"Shall we continue the topic just now?" Angel asked.

Black Earl: "...Okay."

Black Earl actually wanted to ask Angel why he suddenly decided not to go to the second floor. Did he find something? Or did he not want to continue this absurd "add points" game?

But in the end, Black Earl held back. He believed in Angel's judgment. At least after entering the underground waterway, every choice Angel made was correct.

As for how Angel came to these judgments, Black Earl planned to put it aside for the time being. Anyway, Angel had done a lot of incredible things before, but later proved to be correct, and this one more thing was not much.

"Regarding that gem hand, I can't judge its existence form. However, I feel a bit like an earth element creature." Angel recalled that gem hand, and always felt that it was a bit similar to the wise man Portia in the Wild Stone Wasteland.

Portia the Wise is an earth creature, and his whole body is made of yellow crystal.

And that gem hand is made of something like ruby ​​or red crystal.

"There are indeed gems and crystals in the earth elemental creatures." Black Earl: "What you said is possible."

If the gem hand is an elemental creature, then the previous inconsistent handwriting and typos can be understood. Moreover, elemental creatures are not afraid of limb damage at all. The gem hand broke its little finger, which looks very scary, but if you think of it as an elemental creature, then it breaks its little finger just like cutting nails for humans, it doesn't hurt, and it can grow back.

"The Noah clan has always been proud of the earth. Could this earth creature be related to that Noah ancestor?" Angel threw out another idea.

The Black Earl pondered for a moment and said: "The Noah clan was not a complete earth family in the early days, and there were many other families mixed in. However, the earth lineage occupied the vast majority, which is true. As for that Noah ancestor, according to the records, he should be from the earth lineage. However, whether this earth creature is related to him, there is no record."

After listening to the Black Earl's story, Angel suddenly thought of a possibility.

If the earth creatures are really related to Augustine, then could they come from Augustine's legacy?

If this is the case, Augustine's legacy should be related to the 'mirror'.

And the believers of the underground church worship the 'mirror demon', could it also be related to Augustine's legacy? After all, the Black Earl learned about Augustine from the Uyisu language left by these believers.

The above is not what Angel cares about most. What he cares about most is that Augustine, Mirror Demon, Mirror... These names remind him of a mysterious object.

Mirror of Truth!

This mysterious object is quite famous, even as famous as the "Book of Kells"! Even in the Order Guild, it is the most confidential, top-notch, and most strictly protected mysterious object.

And it also has a name

Augustine's Twin Mirror!

...

From the name of this mysterious object, it is enough to make Angel have reverie.

Let's not look at the prefix for now, just talking about the "Twin Mirror" at the back, it is very consistent with the current situation.

As they traveled along the way, they always encountered information related to "mirrors" from time to time, so the image of the mirror itself is worth pondering.

Next, what is "twin"?

In Angel's understanding, twins are twins.

And the image of twins, they also encountered this time, from... the pattern of the Mirror Demon.

In the pattern of the Mirror Demon, it can be clearly seen that the circle is divided into two halves. The left half is a man wearing a hat, and the right half is a woman with long hair.

Although it is impossible to tell whether they are real twins from the pattern alone; however, the pattern of the Mirror Demon is half male and half female, which has gradually given the flavor of twins.

Even if it cannot be completely confirmed, so many clues revolve around the mirror, the Mirror Demon and Augustine.

This forced Angel to make more associations.

Angel believed that Augustine's twin mirror must not be in the Relics. Because according to Isabel, this mysterious object now remains in the Source World, and she once borrowed it.

But even without this mysterious object, the attraction of the Relics to Angel has greatly increased.

Before, he came to the underground sewer more for the wall, wanting to see what was going on in the Relics so that he could act in the Nightmare Realm.

But now, he has become interested in everything related to the "mirror" in the Relics.

If "Augustine's Twin Mirror" is really related to Augustine Noah, then the Legacy might be the birthplace of the Twin Mirror.

If this is true, Angel's previous indifferent attitude towards the Legacy might have to change.
