Her voice was very clear and melodious. However, when the two voices were put together, there was a kind of inanimate and mechanical feeling. It was very cold.
Her voice wasn't the biggest problem. What puzzled them the most was her name.
The poet and the Astrologer only revealed their names when the "test" was over. But this person directly said his name in the opening remarks.
It didn't matter if she said her name first or later. However, her name included the poet and the Astrologer's names, which meant she was trying to emphasize the uniqueness of her name.
Could it be a coincidence that someone's name included the names of two other people?
Was it really a coincidence that something like this happened in the same place less than ten minutes apart? At least, he didn't believe it.
Also, the name "Laplace" … Could it be the name of the rabbit girl he met earlier?
This woman's name probably included all the names of the three people who showed up earlier.
"Dear guests from afar, please forgive me for not being able to meet you in person. My true body is still sleeping at the sea far away. I can only use three of my body parts to talk to you in my place. "
"Body parts?" Dorcas noticed something he didn't know.
"The versions of myself that are condensed at different times are the time bodies," the silver-haired girl said calmly.
"Bodies created at different times?" Dorcas asked in their Spirit Bond, "Have you ever heard of such an ability, Lord Dark Earl?"
The Dark Earl was best at creating clones. He could transfer his organs to his descendants, which was also a kind of cloning ability. Dorcas' first thought was to ask the Dark Earl about it.
However, the Dark Earl twitched his nose and said, "I've never heard of 'body parts' before."
In terms of clones, the Dark Earl's clones could be considered as clones that were created in 'different periods of time'. However, they were still clones. If the Dark Earl was talking about clones, she would just use the term "clones" to describe them. But she just used a new term that Dorcas had never heard of before. Therefore, the Dark Earl couldn't tell the difference between body parts and body parts.
"Body parts are different from body parts. Body parts focus on creating different memories, while body parts have the same memories," the silver-haired girl spoke.
Dorcas frowned. "You're spying on our Spirit Bond?"
If she wasn't spying on them, how could she have accurately guessed what they were talking about and answered them?
The girl shook her head. "I'm not spying. I just heard it."
Heard it? Angor narrowed his eyes. That sounded strange. Dorcas and the Black Earl were communicating through the Spirit Bond, and this Spirit Bond was of an extremely high level. It was personally released by the Black Earl, so if it was invaded, the Black Earl would immediately sense it.
The Dark Earl already pointed out the Wise Lord's eavesdropping.
This time, even the Dark Earl revealed a trace of astonishment when he heard the silver-haired young lady's reply. It went to show that he didn't sense her prying through the Spirit Bond.
This was very telling.
One had to know that the silver-haired girl had yet to leave the mirror world. She was still inside the prism, and the inside and outside of the prism were two different worlds!
It was hard enough to eavesdrop on the Dark Earl's Spirit Bond in the same world, let alone across worlds.
He believed that the girl couldn't be stronger than the Wise Overseer, but she might have some special abilities. That ability allowed her to "hear" the conversation in the Spirit Bond.
Dorcas wanted to continue exploring this topic, but the silver-haired girl didn't seem interested in talking about it. Her way of protesting was also very special. She didn't make a sound, and only used her heterochromatic eyes to quietly stare at Dorcas. Her gaze … was as if she was looking at a pile of dust.
She didn't do anything, but Dorcas felt like he was being humiliated again. Why did she say "again"? Dorcas felt it was a familiar feeling.
Since the other party was unwilling to talk about this topic, Dorcas thought for a moment and said, "You said before that you used three so-called 'time bodies' to contact us. Are they the three from before?"
"Yes."
Dorcas: "If you take your name apart, it'll be the names of those three?"
The girl glanced at Dorcas. She still looked at him as if he was a pile of dust, but this time, there was a hint of disgust in her eyes, as if she was saying, "You're so annoying."
Even though the silver-haired girl expressed her disgust, after a moment of silence, she still nodded in response.
This confirmed Angor's guess. The third rabbit girl was the silver-haired girl's first name, Laplace.
Maybe it was because the girl's attitude was too obvious, Dorcas looked at Angor and signaled with his eyes, "You can ask the next questions."
Angor didn't refuse. He had a lot of questions for the girl anyway.
The one he was most curious about was the so-called "body parts". But that should be the girl's ability. Asking about other people's abilities wasn't taboo in the wizarding world, but it was an unspoken rule.
Angor considered and asked, "Since you said your real body is sleeping and you let your 'body parts' contact us, who is this girl standing in front of us? Not your real body? "
After hearing Angor's question, Dorcas began to observe the silver-haired girl's attitude with a gloating look.
He was "insulted" several times in a row, so he wanted to see Angor's expression after being "insulted".
But to Dorcas' disappointment, the silver-haired girl didn't look at Angor as if he was a pile of dust. Instead, she returned to her cold and indifferent look.
Maybe … it was Angor's first time asking a question?
Dorcas thought about it and agreed. The girl didn't show any disgust when he asked her the first time. With that in mind, Dorcas relaxed a little and began to pay more attention to the silver-haired girl's answer.
The silver-haired girl didn't answer right away. She only stared at Angor in silence.
There was no sign of emotion. It was just a simple stare.
Angor didn't know why she kept staring at him. His Super Perception couldn't transcend worlds, so he couldn't read the silver-haired girl's current emotions. He could only look at each other.
After a long time, long enough for Dorcas to think that the silver-haired girl had fallen asleep with her eyes open, he finally saw her pink lips tremble slightly.
Dorcas thought she was going to speak, but she just pursed her lips and remained silent.
The silence lasted for a long, long time …
Of course, that was Dorcas's concept of time. In fact, it had only been a minute since Angor asked the question. But compared to when Dorcas asked the question, the silver-haired girl's reaction speed did change significantly.
Another ten seconds later, the silver-haired girl finally spoke, "It's just a mirror image."
Angor: "In other words, it's not your real body?"
The silver-haired girl nodded. "Yes."
Angor: "Then why didn't you use your mirror image before? Why did you use your real body? Just to test us? "
The silver-haired girl fell into silence again.
If she remained silent, it might mean she didn't want to answer. But she also acted as if she was thinking, as if she wanted to answer, but she just didn't know how to phrase it.
Angor could only stay silent like her.
On the other side, Dorcas sighed as he watched the atmosphere return to its previous deadlock. However, while he was carefully thinking about the silver-haired girl's answer, Dorcas felt a little confused.
The silver-haired girl's answer wasn't too complicated. It was such a simple conversation, why did she need to think for so long?
When she looked at Angor, was she thinking about Angor's question, or was she just looking at Angor?
A strange feeling arose in Dorcas' heart. Could it be that this girl was like Wa Yi, another fanboy? Wait, no, a fanboy?
He thought about it carefully and realized it wasn't impossible. For example, the others all had their own tests, but why didn't Angor get the rabbit girl's mask fragment? And the silver-haired girl clearly said that all three of them were her real bodies. In a way, all three of them were her.
So the rabbit girl's reaction to Angor was the silver-haired girl herself?
Besides, the silver-haired girl asked Angor so many times, but she didn't show any disgust. Did this mean something was wrong?
The more Dorcas thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. And the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't accept it.
What was the basis for this? If Angor showed up with his real face, or held a sign that said he was a master alchemist, then he could attract people's attention.
But now that Angor had used Shapeshifting, even his family couldn't recognize him. Anyone who saw him would only think he was a "passerby", right? So why did everyone like him?
Dorcas couldn't help but move closer to Kael and asked in a serious tone, "Seriously, who do you think is more handsome? Me or that red-haired girl?"
Kael didn't know why Dorcas suddenly asked such a question. He remained silent for a moment and spoke in a weak voice, "Actually, mister, you have red hair too, and … and …"
Dorcas saw Kael's evasive gaze and knew that he wouldn't get a clear answer even if he kept asking. He could only sigh and continue complaining about the injustice.
At this moment, the silver-haired girl, who had been deep in thought for a while, seemed to have thought of the right words and finally said, "Tie."
"Bond? What do you mean? "
"Time is the bond, and the mask is the bridge." The silver-haired girl reached out her hand from her long sleeve.
She was holding a mask in her hand.
Angor was a little surprised when he saw the mask. He summoned a Hand of Spell from the air and took over the mask he put together earlier.
After careful comparison, he realized that the two masks were made from the same material.
The mask in Angor's hand was a mask with a man's face, while the one in her hand was a mask with a woman's facial features. Judging from the color and luster, it should be an old stone mask as well.
Both Angor and the silver-haired girl held the masks in their hands and looked at each other through the prism.
This scene gave him an inexplicably strange feeling.
Even stranger, the silver-haired girl suddenly put down her hand. Angor also lowered his hand at the same time.
The silver-haired girl did the same thing again. She turned the mask around, and the gray eyes on the mask were looking at her.
It was neat and tidy, looking like a real mirror.
"Be careful!" Dark Earl warned Angor through their Spirit Bond. If the silver-haired girl put on the mask next, Angor would also put on the mask and receive those memories.
Still, Dark Earl's warning was unnecessary. That was because he had already become the silver-haired girl's puppet, and his body was under her control.
But in fact, that was not the case.
Everything Angor did just now was his own will. There was no external force to change his mind.
Angor knew that he was not being controlled, which was why he was surprised.
Was the girl imitating him?
Or could it be that the other party had guessed his subconscious?
While Angor was still in shock, the silver-haired girl suddenly put away the mask and sighed. "Still can't do it."
Angor handed the mask back to the Hand of Spell and looked at the girl in confusion. "What do you mean?"
"This is the bridge of fate," the girl said.
Angor felt like he could understand every word she said. But when put together, he did not understand at all.
What bridge of fate? What bond? And why was she imitating him?
The silver-haired girl did not answer Angor's question. Instead, she turned around and looked at … Wai.
Wa Yi, who was suddenly stared at, was at a loss.
Wasn't she talking to Mister Superdimensional? Why am I here?
Could it be, could it be … there really was an apprentice's test?
While Wa's mind was in a mess, the silver-haired girl said faintly, "A loner hiding in the crowd must shed the protection of the night and set foot on the long road again. Only then will he not be abandoned by his old friends and drowned by the stardust."
Wai was puzzled. What did that mean?
"A word of advice." The girl paused and added, which was rare of her, "The Wise One asked me to do it. To return the favor, I agreed. But now …"
The silver-haired girl didn't continue speaking, as if there was some secret hidden within. However, from the literal meaning alone, they roughly understood the current situation.
They thought the "surprise" the Wise One mentioned was the mask, but that was not the case. The mask was not a surprise. The so-called "surprise" should be a prophecy given by the Wise One to the silver-haired girl.
But what did the prophecy mean? Or was it a prophecy?
Wai carefully asked, "The prophecy means …"
The girl looked at Wai as if she was looking at a speck of dust.
"I'm only responsible for the prophecy."
With that, she turned around and looked at Dorcas, who was standing beside Wai.
