After the Nether Slave left, Adanis was still a little restless.
Her brows were tightly knitted, and her eyes unconsciously turned into a silver-white mirror. Images that looked like marquee lanterns appeared in the mirror. These images were not the images that the magic array was monitoring, but rather … memories that belonged solely to her.
It was so long ago that she had to rely on her talent to recall her memories.
Ten thousand years ago, Nether City's glory dissipated overnight, and it fell to the mortal world.
During that time, it was a huge blow to those who were sheltered under Nether City's tree. Rulers left one after another, and those who did not leave fell into eternal slumber in despair.
But for the newly born Adanis, Nether City's meaning to her was close to nothing.
Moreover, Adanis and Oleo had always been hidden in the Clear Sky Poetry Room. There was a powerful magic array set up by Margaret, and no one could discover it, let alone set foot in it. Even the Wise Sovereign, aside from being invited by Master during the construction of the Clear Sky Poetry Room, had been unable to enter ever since Master had left.
Therefore, the Clear Sky Poetry Room was one of the few pure lands in the underground sewers.
However, it was very difficult for a pure land to be untainted forever.
In the thousand years after his master left, Olao still had hopes for Noah's descendants. At that time, Adanis also listened to Olao, so she did not reject Noah's descendants. Just like Olao, she also hoped that Noah's descendants would come here and take them away.
In the end, Noah's descendants were worse than the last. Not to mention entering the Clear Sky Poetry Room, many Noah's descendants had already retreated on the way to the room.
It had to be known that Adanis did not set up any sentries at that time, nor did she let the Wise Ruler stop them. But even so, those Noah's descendants were speechless.
Even if they reached the Clear Sky Poetry Room, there were only greedy people among them.
During that time, Oleo became more and more depressed, and the Clear Sky Poetry Room was also affected. It changed from an aria in the clear sky to a song in the dark night.
Day after day, year after year. The 'clear sky' turned into 'darkness', and this place was no longer the same as before. Only endless silence was left. The poetry room finally became … a remnant.
It was also at this time that Adanis began to test the descendants of Noah.
She believed that only the descendants of Noah who had passed the test were qualified to enter the ruins. At that time, although Olao didn't approve of it, he didn't stop it.
As more and more Noah's descendants came to take the test, Adanis saw through the greed of these people.
Therefore, what was originally just a test of Noah's descendants became resistance and even expulsion.
For this, Adanis even had a set of familiar procedures. They were blocked outside, banished to the Empty Mirror Ocean, wiped out all their memories, and released back to the human world.
Because the Empty Mirror Sea had obliterated the memories of many of the descendants of Hell, it had also caused fewer and fewer descendants of Noah to know about the ruins.
This was a good thing for Adanis. She did not like Noah's descendants, and at this moment, she had also discovered some of her own … secrets.
She already knew that the arrival of Noah's descendants would not benefit her at all. It would only change the current situation.
Therefore, Adanis' attitude towards Noah's descendants became more and more repulsive. She didn't even put them through the 'test' anymore. As long as she found an opportunity, she would directly banish them to the Empty Mirror Sea.
Adanis knew that Olao was not very satisfied with her actions. However, Adanis also knew that Olao would not stop her.
Olao ignored Adanis's actions and rarely even mentioned Noah's matters.
Adanis knew that she had won.
As long as she persevered, even the influence of her master would gradually be obliterated by time. At that time, Olao would truly be reborn and would no longer be shackled.
As for the words that Adanis often said, "Compared to Noah's descendants, she looked forward to the descent of Hell more." In the beginning, it might have been somewhat true, but now, it was purely a meaningless sentence. Or rather, it was perfunctory to Olao and the catchphrase of the Wise Ruler.
Adanis thought that as long as another few hundred years, a thousand years, or even ten thousand years. As long as Olao's shackles were obliterated, they would be truly free.
However, this time, Olao's abnormality made Adanis feel uneasy.
The scene in the mirror gradually shattered, and Adanis woke up from her reverie.
Although her eyes had regained their usual coldness, one could still see the lingering fear left behind by her wavering heart.
'If it were in the past, Hidden Slave would have a 90% chance of defeating a few ordinary Magi.' Adanis thought to herself, 'But it's different this time. The Wise Ruler is also brazenly making a move. If he were to help, there might be some variables. '
Adanis' mood worsened at the thought of the Wise Ruler. Olao's strange behavior this time was already a variable, but the Wise Sovereign was still causing trouble at this time, causing unforeseen events to occur.
However, the Wise Ruler's timing was so coincidental. Was it unintentional, or was it intentional?
With so many variables, what would the final outcome be? She could not answer this question now, but Adanis knew that as long as they were not chased away, it would definitely be disadvantageous for her.
Just relying on Hidden Slave alone was not enough. She had to have a few backup plans.
Adanis narrowed her eyes at the thought of this, and her figure gradually melted into the darkness.
When her body appeared from the prism of light, she was already in a room filled with red light.
This room was not big, and it would be cramped if five or six adults were in it. Moreover, the floor of the room was filled with solidified red wax, which made the small room seem even more cramped.
Adanis was not even standing on the ground, but was instead floating in the air.
The ceiling of the room was very high, and there was a chandelier that looked like a spider web hanging from it. The so-called 'chandelier' was actually a red candle.
This was also why the room was dark and filled with red light.
Adanis looked around the small room, but did not see her target. She couldn't help but look at the wave-like wave-like substance on the ground. She secretly wondered … Could it be hiding down there?
While Adanis was staring at the red wax on the floor, she did not notice that a blood-red hand had stealthily clung onto her shoulder.
This hand was not big, about the size of a baby's hand. However, the red liquid that kept dripping out, and the greenish-black fingernails made this hand look abnormally terrifying.
As the hand kept reaching out, a blood-red baby's head without any skin stretched out from Adanis' back.
Its expression was strange, and the smile at the corner of its mouth stretched to its ears, revealing a toothless mouth.
As it laughed creepily, it tentatively stretched its hand towards Adanis' neck, getting closer and closer …
When its hand touched Adanis' neck, it could no longer hide its sinister smile. Its fingernails suddenly grew long and sharp, and pierced straight into her neck. It grabbed the spine and twisted it violently. Adanis' head fell off, falling into the red wax …
Slurp, slurp. Seeing the headless body fall with it, the weird, creepy laughter became even more proud.
However, its proud laughter did not last long, and suddenly, it stopped abruptly.
This was because Adanis, who was unharmed, was standing right in front of it again. As for the corpse that had its head broken off, it had already become a shattered mirror on the ground.
"This is the 994th mirror you have broken. As I said before, when you break the 1000th mirror, I will banish you to the Empty Mirror Sea. If you can't be used by me, then become a speck of dust in the Empty Mirror Sea, "Adanis said lightly.
The skinless, red baby fell from the sky.
It fiddled with the shattered mirror on the floor, as if it was trying to find the connection between the mirror and Adanis. As for Adanis's words, it did not seem to take them to heart.
Adanis looked at the "strange baby spirit" that ignored her, and was slightly displeased.
However, she quickly suppressed her feelings. This baby spirit had a strange origin, and its ability was even stranger. If her body was not hidden in the mirror, and this was a reflection cage in the mirror world, this baby spirit might have succeeded.
This baby spirit suddenly descended on the Strolling Promenade one day a few years ago. The Strolling Promenade was the corridor outside the Clear Sky Poetry Room.
When it descended, its head was wrapped with a silk ribbon, and it held a swaying red flower in its hand. Its appearance was very strange.
However, there were many undead that dressed strangely, and it was possible for a baby spirit to have a strange appearance.
Therefore, at first, Adanis only thought of it as a normal baby spirit, and thought that it fell from the Cazider World. However, after several mirror images were shattered by it, Adanis could immediately tell that this Baby Spirit was not as ordinary as it appeared to be.
Although Adanis could not catch it, Olao, who had a more mysterious origin, could.
With Olao's help, Adanis locked the baby spirit in the mirror world's cage.
Baby spirits were a common type of undead, but such a strange one with such terrifying strength was rare. And baby spirits, because of their innate desire for motherhood, once they were recognized, as long as they were handled properly and fed at the right time, they would become very loyal.
Therefore, compared to destroying the baby spirit, she wanted to gain its loyalty more.
Therefore, she came again and again, broke the mirror again and again, and finally returned in defeat.
At first, when she returned in defeat, Adanis not only did not feel unhappy, but her desire to conquer became stronger.
Because she found another unique thing about this baby spirit, it was a spirit with intelligence.
The undead's thoughts were chaotic, and even if a few memory fragments from when they were alive occasionally popped up in their minds, it was just a kind of inertia of the soul and consciousness, and could not be called intelligent.
But this baby spirit was different, it could do many things that only intelligent creatures could do.
For example, weaving.
Now, the white silk chandelier that looked like a spider's web on the ceiling was woven by it with the ribbon that was tied to its head.
Next, making candles.
Adanis was not in the mood to make red candles for a baby spirit, and these candles were all made by the baby spirit itself. As for how it was done, Adanis once peeped into the truth.
In fact, it was the red flower that the baby spirit held in its hand. The red flower would constantly drip fragrant sticky substances, and these sticky substances would be shaped by the baby spirit into the current candles.
These skills were definitely not something that a baby spirit could do, and even an undead would find it difficult to do this.
From all kinds of signs, it could be seen that this baby spirit was intelligent. Moreover, from the positive feedback of some details, it could even understand human language.
This made Adanis even more eager to see it.
This was a guy that was more suitable for fighting than Younu. Moreover, Younu had a doppelganger and a child to hold it back, but it was alone. For Adanis, it was simply the best chess piece and weapon.
But such a baby spirit did not take Adanis seriously at all when facing her. So far, it had not shown any emotion to her.
After a long time, no matter how high its enthusiasm was, it would be extinguished by cold water.
Adanis was not a patient person, and it was already an exception that she could be so tolerant of a baby spirit with a bad attitude. But there was also a moment when the baby spirit was worn down by the special case.
Adanis did not know how many methods and how many times she tried to persuade it, but in the end, she could not make the baby spirit have a sense of belonging. She was tired now, so she set up a promise of a thousand times.
At this time, the baby spirit was less than two digits away from breaking the mirror a thousand times.
As long as it reached a thousand times, Adanis would definitely do as she said and banish it to the Empty Mirror Sea.
"I know you can understand me." Adanis said to the baby spirit that was busy checking the mirror on the ground, "Whether you are willing to submit to me or not is yesterday's topic. I'm not here to talk about it today."
The baby spirit ignored Adanis, but Adanis continued.
"What you want most is freedom, right? I can give you a chance. As long as you do it, I will set you free. "
Adanis finished speaking and waited in silence.
One minute, two minutes … Until five minutes later, the baby spirit finally turned its head and looked at Adanis.
The baby spirit did not speak, but through its gloomy eyes, Adanis received the message it was trying to convey —
The baby spirit was asking with its eyes, "What do you want me to do?"
Adanis: "It's very simple. I will put you in the Walking Corridor. You just need to wait there. As long as any living creature comes near, kill them and grind their bones to ashes. That's your task. "
When the baby spirit heard that it was to kill people, the smile on its face widened, and its eyes were unconsciously dyed with a touch of scarlet.
Slurp, slurp … The strange disappearance, coupled with the baby spirit's wild and ferocious expression.
Adanis knew that this time, it should be done.
However, there were many variables in using the baby spirit's hand, and Adanis still did not trust this kind of undead of unknown origin. If she was not careful, she might be bitten back.
In order to be foolproof, she had to make more preparations.
