"If you want to go to the cryptic world through the mirror tunnel created by Adanis, don't forget about it. Without it, you'll be lost forever. "
It was a voice Angor had never heard before. It was similar to "Mediocre" Muse's, which was a lazy male voice. However, compared to Muse, the other party's tone was clearer and more … serious?
Serious? Maybe it was because of the current situation. Still, he was sure that it was a strange voice he had never heard before.
Angor didn't know who it was. But judging from the source of the voice, it should be the owner of the strange emotion he sensed from the whale-shaped monster.
It was a male voice. So it shouldn't be the "she" mentioned by the Wise Overseer.
Who was the Adanis he was talking about?
Angor tried to reply, but he couldn't find the speaker's "voice". He couldn't use his spirit power to connect.
"I didn't think you'd notice me either," the old man spoke again, "but you didn't notice me either. But now is not the time for us to meet. Wait. Wait. "
"Remember what I said. You can take the broken mirror, but do not go to any of the mirror tunnels created by Adanis, and do not get caught by the Phantom Slave."
"These outsiders aren't your biggest threat. Adanis has released a powerful Infant Spirit from another world. It will try to kill you in the Remnant. "
"Don't fight it. Find a way to enter the secret chamber, which is the Remnant you mentioned. I'll be waiting for you there. "
"Don't ask the Wise Overseer to help you fight the Infant Spirit. He's not a bad person, but no one can afford to pay him. "
"Finally, please come to the Remnant. I've been waiting for too long."
The voice grew weaker and weaker until it finally disappeared.
Following his words, Angor sensed that the whale-shaped monster was no longer showing any kindness toward him.
Previously, he had only been guessing, but now, he was almost certain that it was the goodwill that had spoken.
But he didn't know who this man was. What did he want? Should he believe his warning?
From what he said, he was also in the Remnant. However, the Wise Ruler had never mentioned that there was a 'he' in the ruins other than 'she'.
The Wise Ruler didn't mention it, but Angor and the others had their own guesses. After all, half of the symbols were male and the other half were female.
Since "she" had already appeared, then the man in the logo might also exist.
Could the person who was talking to him just now be the man wearing a hat in the logo?
He could not confirm it without proof.
However, the 'Adanis' that the Lord of Wisdom had been referring to was probably the 'her' that the Lord of Wisdom was referring to.
Moreover, from the other party's tone, it was clear that Adanis harbored ill intentions towards them. In order to stop them, she had even created a … baby spirit?
Of course, he knew what an Infant Spirit was. As far as he knew, Infant Spirits were nothing more than low-level undead creatures. But this Infant Spirit seemed to be very powerful.
Putting aside these difficulties for the time being, Adanis's malice towards them coincided with the grey merchant's abnormal emotions.
In conclusion, the Mirror Demon was divided into male and female. The female ones were malicious, while the male ones were kind. The female ones wanted to stop them from going to the Remnant, while the male ones wanted them to go.
Angor wasn't sure if his guess was correct, but he was sure that there were at least two beings with different ideologies in the Remnant.
So — divided and contradictory.
…
Angor's thoughts were suddenly awakened by a large number of feedback from Elmi.
When he regained his consciousness, he realized that Elmi had sent him several messages in a row. At first, it was just a simple statement, but later on, it became a warning.
And it all started when the grey merchant found the "severed arm" on his body.
The grey merchant was only affected by the spatial imbalance, but he was still aware of it. When the severed arm searched his body without restraint, the grey merchant still felt it.
However, the severed arm was too small for the grey merchant who had turned into an earth dragon. It was as small as an ant.
At first, the grey merchant was distracted by the "Elmi" outside and didn't notice the abnormality on his body. However, after several failed attempts, the grey merchant began to doubt himself and finally looked at himself.
Then, the severed arm was found and destroyed by the grey merchant.
By now, there were only two severed arms left.
One of them touched the "mirror", while the other kept attracting the grey merchant's attention. Seeing that the severed arm was about to be found, Elmi kept sending feedback.
In other words, Angor had to make a decision now. Should he give up on the lens, or let the severed arm take the lens and leave immediately?
Before this, Angor decided to give up on the lens because of the Ruler of Wisdom's hint.
But now, after hearing the explanation, Angor could roughly guess what the Ruler of Wisdom was thinking. Perhaps the Ruler of Wisdom was worried that he would get lost in the mirror world?
If that was the only reason, Angor believed that the Ruler of Wisdom was overthinking things.
Angor seemed to be a reckless person, but he was actually a very cautious person. All of his actions were based on the fact that he had a trump card, a backup, and an escape route. When he knew that there was no way out, he would become very cautious. Even if he really wanted to enter the mirror world, he would do it carefully first. He would only do so after making sure there was no danger.
Perhaps the Ruler of Wisdom saw that Angor was going to "risk his life" even though he knew he wouldn't get anything out of it, so he thought that Angor was a reckless adventurer. That was why the Ruler of Wisdom hinted that Angor wouldn't "risk his life" again after getting the lens.
After thinking it through, Angor made a new decision.
He still wanted to get the lens.
Since the one in the Void had said that he could take the broken mirror, but not the mirror tunnel that Adanis had built … then why didn't he take it?
As long as he didn't enter the mirror world, he could use it as a research subject. Why not?
Besides, Angor had been studying the mirror dimension recently. Purely relying on Mirror's Grudge to research it was still a bit slow. Perhaps this broken lens could bring him a surprise?
With that in mind, Angor ordered Elmi to take out the broken lens.
After receiving the order, Elmi's severed arm, which was still attracting the grey merchant's attention, no longer hid. Instead, it became aggressive and directly provoked the grey merchant.
It attracted most of the grey merchant's attention.
The severed arm, which was still holding the broken lens, jumped down from the grey merchant's body without hesitation.
Hui Shang also noticed the severed hand and realized that the severed hand was holding an important lens that contained his memories. He panicked and immediately prepared to ignore the other severed hand's provocation and deal with the severed hand that was holding the lens first.
The severed arm, which was ignored by the severed arm, quickly disintegrated.
Its energy structure was exactly the same as the gem energy on the grey merchant's body. The severed arm didn't trigger any resistance from the gem energy around it. Instead, the grey merchant assumed that another gem energy had merged with the severed arm.
However, the gem energy wasn't "Rivers Return to Their Course". It was only meant to confuse the grey merchant's judgment.
The method was simple. Simply activate the gem energy and create a rainbow-like mist that blocked the grey merchant's vision.
The grey merchant quickly activated his Energy Vision.
However, when he used his spirit power to do so, he noticed that the severed arm with the important lens had already disappeared!
It was only for a split second. How did it disappear?!
The grey merchant kept searching, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find anything.
For the first time, the grey merchant's emotions began to fluctuate violently. In his anger, he began to bombard the gem energy that blocked his vision.
However, the gem energy was no longer under Elmi's control and had truly merged with the grey merchant's body. In other words, the grey merchant was bombarding his own energy indiscriminately.
This was just an ineffective form of anger.
The grey merchant couldn't find the severed arm because of the spatial imbalance. When the severed arm was still on the grey merchant's body, the spatial imbalance wouldn't work. However, once the severed arm was far away from the merchant, the spatial imbalance would naturally block the grey merchant's vision again.
At this time, if there was a large-scale attack, it would be able to shake the severed hand out.
However, the grey merchant didn't do that.
Angor wondered why the grey merchant didn't just launch a large-scale attack. Angor was already close to the grey merchant, ready to grab the severed arm at any time to avoid being swept away by a large-scale attack. However, the grey merchant didn't do that at all.
Angor managed to retrieve the severed arm without much trouble.
The grey merchant couldn't see Angor's movement, but everyone outside, including the Wise Overseer, did.
Dorcas and the others had no idea what Angor was doing, nor did they know what was inside the leather bag in Angor's hand.
However, judging from the expressions of the women, Dorcas and the others knew that Angor must have taken something very important.
Before this, no matter how Angor tried to "provoke" them, only the pink-haired girl kept stomping her feet while the rest of them remained calm.
But this time, almost everyone on the other side was furious. This was especially true for the evil woman. She even floated into the air, wanting to rush into the arena.
However, the Wise Overseer stopped her.
Still, this didn't mean the woman gave up. The bandages on her back began to expand, as if she was going to fight Angor to the death as soon as he came out of the arena.
Of course, Angor sensed the hostility in the woman's eyes.
Or rather, the traveler's group changed their attitude from neutral to hostile. Of course, Angor noticed it right away.
Angor was quite confused about this.
The broken lens was probably given to the grey merchant by "her", or Adanis, so that she could observe him during the battle? He didn't take anything from the grey merchant, so why did the woman and the others suddenly change their attitude?
Angor shook his head and decided not to think about it. He had to deal with this first before anything else.
However, before he attacked the merchant, he glanced at the Wise Overseer.
Angor tried to read the Wise Overseer's reaction, but the Wise Overseer's face was completely covered by his cloak, so he couldn't tell what the man was thinking.
He could only vaguely feel that the atmosphere around him seemed to have become more solemn than before.
Angor decided not to talk to the Wise Overseer and looked at the grey merchant again.
…
Now that "her" was gone, Angor didn't really need to use any of his trump cards.
However, he didn't really need to use them against the grey merchant. Besides, the grey merchant was still under the influence of Spatial Distortion.
The grey merchant already realized that something was wrong and tried to break free, but it was already too late.
Angor even used the "Sense of Surprise" that Gray Merchant learned from illusions to slightly undo the effect of Spatial Distortion and let the man think that he saw the truth behind the left-right switch.
In the end, the grey merchant walked out of the arena on his own.
When the Wise Overseer announced that the grey merchant lost the duel, the merchant thought that he had broken free from the illusion and was walking toward Angor. As it turned out, everything was part of Angor's plan, including his arrogance.
…
The announcement of the end of the competition came from the mouth of the Sovereign of Wisdom.
A figure quickly rushed into the arena.
It was coming at Angor at full speed, carrying a strong aura of blood and evil thoughts.
Without a doubt, only the woman would dare to attack Angor now.
However, before the woman could reach Angor, Dorcas also rushed into the arena and stopped her with his sword. After being blocked, the evil woman had yet to come back to her senses when thin stone pillars suddenly rose from the ground. These stone pillars were like coiling snakes that intertwined with each other, biting the evil woman within. In the end, these thin stone pillars turned into a twisted black birdcage that floated in the air.
The woman didn't resist at all. It wasn't that she didn't want to. She just couldn't move because of the overwhelming pressure.
The pressure didn't come from the black-robed judge. It came from … the floating stone slab on the other side.
The evil woman, who had been locked up in the birdcage, seemed to have withered and directly collapsed in the cage.
The only thing she could do now was to glare at Angor fiercely.
Her gloomy eyes peeked through the gaps in her hair, like a venomous snake hiding in the grass, staring at you, cold and ruthless. Anyone who saw it would feel a chill down their spine.
The woman didn't say anything, but her strong hostility was already expressed through her actions and eyes.
At this time, the apprentices led by the demonic elephant also came to the arena. They didn't dare to do anything. They only stayed by the woman's side and looked at the people on the other side cautiously.
In the crowd, Fen Mo glared at Angor. "Give it back! What you took! Give it back! "
Following Fen Mo's angry roar, on the other side, Hui Shang, who had just recovered from his defeat, also woke up.
Hui Shang turned around and saw that the evil woman and all of her apprentices had rushed onto the arena.
The apprentices were fine for now, but the woman was trapped in a giant, twisted birdcage.
Hearing Fen Mo's words and the person Fen Mo was targeting, Hui Shang immediately understood what was going on.
He sighed softly. With a flash of his figure, he appeared in the middle of the confrontation between the two parties.
