Hearing the silver-haired girl's words, everyone understood that she was not going to attack them. She was going to … clear up the misunderstanding?
This action was even more confusing than attacking them directly.
Angor's words were already so harsh, yet she did not get angry. Instead, she took a step back. This was very different from what they expected.
Before this, the silver-haired girl showed indifference, impatience, and disregard for everything.
Because of this, they did not think such a cold-tempered girl would compromise with them. But contrary to their expectations, the silver-haired girl was not angered by Angor's words.
Her current performance had changed everyone's evaluation of her character.
Whether she was being nice or not, at least she did not show any malicious intent. Then … maybe they could talk to her further.
Everyone lowered their guard and looked at each other. They didn't say anything, but the meaning in their eyes was clear to each other.
First, they should talk, especially to get more information. As for who should represent them, Dorcas wanted Angor to go.
Dorcas's idea was simple. How did the silver-haired girl treat him before? Everyone could see it. The silver-haired girl was not happy to see him. She looked at him as if he was a piece of trash.
Therefore, Dorcas definitely couldn't go.
As for the others, the two apprentices were not considered yet. They might not be able to think of everything. The best option was for Black Earl to talk to Angor. If Black Earl wanted to go, he would have already spoken. Since he did not say anything, it meant he supported Angor as the link.
Angor actually wanted to refuse. His previous words were too harsh. He believed he had no way out.
But when he looked up, he saw the silver-haired girl still staring at him.
It was as if the others did not exist in her eyes.
Seeing this, Angor knew he could not avoid it. He sighed in his mind and said, "Well … Since the link is broken, let's call it even. What do you think?"
To call it even, both parties must have harmed or benefited each other. Angor's words were not appropriate here.
However, the silver-haired girl in the mirror was not someone who would dig into words. She nodded slightly. "Alright."
Angor was a little embarrassed when he spoke. He did not know what to say, but he quickly found his rhythm. "So, you still want to get the so-called answer from me? Hmm? Miss … Laplace Gleipnir Luigi? "
The silver-haired girl said, "You can call me Laplace."
"Oh?" Angor narrowed his eyes. Why did she only tell them to call him Laplacus? There were still two hours left, right?
"Laplace's body is created from my memories, while the other two bodies are part of my floating memories from the Sea of Eternity." Angor frowned. "That's right.
"They are me, and also not me."
The silver-haired girl … or Laplace, her words sounded confusing, but they revealed some interesting information.
According to her, this time body was condensed from memories from different periods of time.
However, according to this explanation, there was a problem. The problem lay with the bard, Luigi. Without a doubt, Luigi was a male. If Luigi was condensed at a certain stage of her life, did that mean that she had different genders at different times?
It was not a big question, but it was still something they were curious about. Now, they had a part of the answer. This time body did not only contain her own memories, but also "memories from the distant sea". Perhaps Luigi's appearance was caused by memories that did not belong to her.
Speaking of which, the silver-haired girl's real memories were condensed from Laplace, the rabbit girl. Did this mean that she was more like a child?
"I think I heard about the distant sea more than once. Is your real body also at the Distant Sea?" Angor did not ask further, but he already knew what he wanted to ask. "What is the Distant Sea?"
Angor did not want Laplace to think that they were going to the Distant Sea to find her real body, so he used a roundabout way.
"It's an invisible sea that connects countless mirror worlds. You call it the Empty Mirror Sea," Laplace explained. As Laplace explained, he noticed that everyone was looking at him curiously. He hesitated for a moment and added, "The Empty Mirror Ocean is not a paradise. It will wash away all the emotions and memories of the living until even their consciousness is gone. This is the law of the Empty Mirror Sea. "
Laplace did not go too far, but everyone knew that she was warning them not to enter the Empty Mirror Sea.
Laplace did not care whether her words would work or not. Originally, she didn't need to remind him of these things, but because she was a little concerned about the strange young man outside the mirror, this long-lost emotion made her willing to say a few more words.
After explaining the dangers of the Empty Mirror Sea, Laplace returned to the main topic. "My answer to your question remains the same. I want to know the answer. "
Angor looked at Laplace's serious expression and considered. "So, you can only give me a message?"
Laplace looked down. "My real body is still asleep. The only thing I can do is to analyze the mental reflections projected into my mind."
It was a roundabout way of saying that Laplace had nothing but a message. Angor pondered for a moment.
"If that's all you want, I don't want to do it."
Laplace's eyes dimmed a little. However, Angor's next words made her eyes brighten up again.
"If you can answer a few of my questions, I'll choose an 'answer' to tell you. But I don't know if it's the real answer. You'll have to decide for yourself. I can only say that I'm already considering it. "
Angor emphasized the word "answer". Among the many possibilities he had just thought of, there was indeed one that could be said.
Angor believed he would not lose anything if he used it to trade for information.
Laplace wanted to know all the answers, but she also knew that it was unrealistic to ask Angor to reveal all his cards to her.
Laplace considered and nodded. "Okay."
"You don't care about the scope of my questions?"
Laplace said indifferently, "What you wish to know will not exceed your understanding."
What she meant was that Angor's knowledge was different from hers. It was like a child asking a question to an adult. The child's question could not escape from the framework of what he had seen and heard, which could not exceed the scope of an adult's knowledge.
Even if Laplace did not mean anything else, she was still mocking Angor on the basis of knowledge.
Angor heard Dorcas chuckling behind Laplace's back.
"To think that you would have a day like this …" Dorcas not only snickered, but he also mocked him in the Spirit Bond.
Angor remained silent for a moment and replied, "I was going to see what you want me to ask. But I think I'll do it myself."
Ignoring Dorcas' whining, Angor continued, "I'll go first?"
"Sure," Laplace said.
"What are you?" Angor considered for a moment before asking his first question.
It sounded simple, but it actually covered a wide range of topics. There was also a lot of room to maneuver.
"If you want to know my race, I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you," Laplace said, "I don't belong to any race like you humans think. If you want to generalize, you can say that I'm a creature born in a mirror, just like the Wise Ones. "
This proved that Laplace was not a human. Her human form was probably just a projection she used to communicate with others.
"Creatures born in mirrors don't belong to any race? Even Phantom Slave? "
Laplace considered. "I'm an exception."
Seeing Angor raising an eyebrow, Laplace knew what Angor wanted to ask. "An exception doesn't mean you're special. The creatures inside the mirror live differently from the outside world. "
"The creatures inside the mirror?"
Laplace said, "It's not for me to answer that question. If you want to know, you'll have to see for yourself. But I don't recommend living people to enter the mirror. "
"Because of the Empty Mirror Sea?"
"The Empty Mirror Sea is only one of the reasons. Without a guide, you'll quickly lose your way inside the mirror world."
The Wise Ones also mentioned that it was easy to get lost inside the mirror world. But Angor had another question. "Can't we break the void?"
If he could use a plane passageway, getting lost wouldn't be a big deal.
Laplace said, "Only a small part of the mirror world is relatively stable. Most of the places are unstable and can break at any time. At least, I've never seen anyone who dares to use a spatial ability in a mirror world. That will only accelerate the process of getting lost. "
"If you can't use spatial abilities in a mirror world, how do you move quickly?"
"The mirror is the passageway." Laplace looked up and glanced at Angor.
She didn't say anything, but Angor already knew what she was trying to say.
"So, do you understand now? Your questions don't exceed your knowledge, and they can't touch my limit."
Angor pondered for a moment and changed his question. "Stone's masks … You said they're called 'Two Faces of Shepherd'? Can you tell me more about them? "
There were two things Angor was curious about. First, whose memories were stored in the masks? Second, why were they called 'Two Faces of Shepherd'?
The first question didn't need to be explained. The second question was about "Shepherd".
In the southern region, the first thing that came to mind when the Shepherd God was mentioned was the mysterious Shepherd God clan.
The Shepherd Clan was famous for their divine outfits.
Carveline, the "girl in divine outfits" Angor met in the purification garden, came from the Shepherd Clan, and her outfit was the famous "Shepherd Outfits".
Carveline could assume many different forms with the Shepherd Outfits, such as battle, defense, and attack. Each of them had a corresponding outfit, and there were more than one. For example, Angor saw several offensive outfits, such as the Reaper's Outfit, the Time Witch's Outfit, the Valkyrie's Armor, the Wasp Queen's Outfit, and so on.
Each of these outfits had a special ability. Judging from the current situation, these abilities were already incomparably powerful.
Once Carveline became an official wizard, the effect of these clothes would become even more powerful. In fact, once Carveline became a wizard, she would become the most versatile wizard under truth-finder. Some of her abilities were even better than truth-finders.
The Shepherd Outfits were only one of Shepherd God's divine outfits.
However, it was said that only the Shepherd Outfits remained in the southern wizardry region. The other parts were all taken to the origin world by the Shepherd God.
Regardless of whether the other parts were still in the southern wizardry region, Carveline's Outfits were already shocking enough.
This was why Angor paid attention to the Shepherd God's divine outfits. When Laplace mentioned that the masks were called "Two Faces of Shepherd God", Angor's first thought was whether they were part of Shepherd God's divine outfits.
Everyone here knew about Shepherd God's divine outfits, let alone Angor. Everyone pricked up their ears when they heard Angor's question.
Dorcas, in particular, was the one who paid the most attention. If these were really part of Shepherd God's divine outfits, they would be incredibly valuable.
However, as Laplace explained, Dorcas's eyes slowly dimmed down.
According to Laplace, she found the two masks in the Empty Mirror Sea. When she found the masks, most of the memories contained in them were washed away.
After reading the few remaining memories, she learned that they were called "Two Faces of Shepherd God".
The memories inside the masks were fragments that Laplace randomly poured into them from the Empty Mirror Sea.
As for why she poured memories into the mask, it was because she found a very stubborn "shadow" in the depths of the mask. These shadows seemed to be memories, but they were not affected by the Sea of Empty Mirrors. At the same time, Laplace could not read these shadows.
She wanted to uncover the secrets of the shadows, so she used various methods. Pouring memories into them was one of them.
She wanted to use this method to remove the shadow from the masks. As long as the shadows floated in the Empty Mirror Sea, she could find a way to read them.
However … nothing happened.
Apart from pouring memories into the masks, she also tried to break them. Laplace was the one who broke the male mask.
Still, nothing worked.
After that, as time passed, Laplace's curiosity about the shadow slowly waned. However, the mask was a rare entity in the mirror world, so she didn't throw it away. Instead, she used the mask as a medium to cast "Bridge of Fate."
And that was all.
