"A natural disaster caused by supernatural power?" Falca was puzzled. "Maybe it's just the background of a story."
Loki shook his head. "It's not just the background. You entered the illusion too, right? You should know that apart from the characters in the story, we can actually see or even touch the scenes in the illusion. Those traces seem to contain some real information. "
Falca was startled by Loki's words. He also remembered the thunderstorm he saw when he entered the illusion. There seemed to be some strange information in the thunderstorm that was worth pondering.
Europa raised an eyebrow as she listened to Loki's and Falca's conversation.
From what they said, it seemed that this drama box did not only express art through illusions, but also had a deeper meaning.
Europa narrowed her eyes and looked at the box in her hand.
…
A moment later, inside the resting room.
From an outsider's point of view, Europa was shrouded in a faint red light, but from Europa's point of view, she was floating above a gloomy castle.
She looked around and saw that it was night time. However, there was no moon in sight. The castle was built on top of a silent mountain, surrounded by a dark forest.
There was light inside the castle, but it didn't make her feel alive. Instead, she felt like she was looking at the flames of hell.
Before Europa could check her surroundings, she fell from the sky as if she was falling into an abyss.
Europa subconsciously tried to mobilize her mana, but before she could sense the mana pool, she was transported to another scene.
Inside a small, dark room.
The only source of light in the room was a candlestick placed on an old table in the center of the room.
The dim light from the candlestick could only illuminate the area around the table. The room was still dark.
"What kind of play is this?" Europa didn't know how this place matched what she saw in the play. But she could tell that the atmosphere here was creepy.
This gloomy atmosphere could even affect her emotions.
"There aren't many people who can create such an exquisite illusion." Angor and Sunders' images flashed in Europa's mind. Sunders' illusions were strong, but they weren't as effective as this one. Therefore, the answer seemed to be very obvious.
Europa slowly walked forward. She wanted to take a look at the table. She saw a book on the table and wanted to learn something from it.
However, before she could get close, she saw a figure appearing not far away.
Europa did not sense the presence of anyone at all. She was so shocked that her pupils shrank slightly. However, upon closer inspection, she discovered that the so-called figure was actually a mirror. Of course, it was her own reflection in the mirror.
Just as Europa thought so, the reflection in the mirror suddenly moved, but … she herself did not move.
A strange laugh came from behind, and Europa abruptly turned her head to look.
A young girl wearing a long white dress opened the door and entered the room. Her movements were very slow, and there was a scratching sound on the floor … Europa took a closer look and found that the girl was dragging a bloody female corpse behind her. As for the girl herself, her skirt was also stained with a bit of dark red.
After the girl walked in, she placed the corpse on the table and walked to the mirror with a sickly expression. "Mirror, mirror, tell me, am I the most beautiful woman in the world?"
The mirror moved, and a dignified male voice came out from the mirror. "No."
The girl's happy expression suddenly changed. Her eyes widened. "You said the most beautiful woman is my brother's lover, Selena. Her body is on the table. She's dead! Why am I not the most beautiful woman in the world?! "
"Selena is dead, but you're still not the most beautiful woman in the world. Your stepmother is even more beautiful than you."
The girl's expression was already fierce, but now it was even more vicious. "She has black spots on her face. How can she be prettier than me?!"
"Your stepmother only put on makeup to accommodate you. She's so much prettier than you."
"Accommodate? That vicious woman stole my father. What accommodation! "The girl's face was full of anger." I'll kill her. I'll kill her! "
As she spoke, she picked up the knife in her hand and slashed at the corpse on the table. Only when the flesh was badly mutilated did she let out a long sigh.
"You're next!"
The girl walked out of the door with the knife with a sinister expression.
Europa saw this scene and her eyes flashed with interest. "Interesting."
This girl was interesting. What was more interesting was … the mirror.
Europa walked to the mirror. The mirror gave her a feeling. On the surface, it was majestic, but it secretly contained something discordant.
Europa carefully observed the mirror. The more she observed, the brighter her eyes became. "Evil? Endless evil? Evil can actually form such a physical object. How did he do it? What kind of rule is this? "
Europa's burning desire to experiment began to rise. She could feel that the rule behind the mirror was definitely not an illusion!
She now somewhat understood why Loki had said that he was very concerned about the traces of transcendence in the illusion.
This was because these transcendent traces all carried a strong sense of rules. To smart people, they could even use this to gain enlightenment.
"His illusions have reached such a level … How can he leave such strange supernatural traces in an illusion?" Europa praised in her mind. She could tell that Angor was the one who created the mirror.
If she could study the mirror thoroughly, she might even benefit from it. This was something she could never imagine.
Just as Europa was about to continue studying the mirror, the scene changed again. She saw the girl's attack on her stepmother. After the attack failed, the girl was driven out of the castle in the drizzle. She saw the girl's weak and pitiful fall into the hands of the seven perverted dwarves. She also saw how she deceived the dwarves …
During this time, Europa was not only attracted by the story. She also sensed many details similar to the magic mirror.
At first, Europa thought that Angor left some Easter eggs in the mirror when he created it.
But as the story progressed and the illusions unfolded, Europa slowly realized that Angor did not leave these Easter eggs on purpose. His understanding of illusions had reached a level where he could almost "define the rules" of illusions. The so-called Easter eggs were probably something Angor left behind on a whim.
If he did it intentionally, it could be considered a good gimmick. But if he did it unintentionally, he could see the details everywhere. That was terrifying.
It meant that Angor's vision had reached a whole new level!
