After leaving the stone house, Angor looked around at all the mirrors and suddenly didn't know where to go.
Where was the Tooth Immortal's Ruin branch?
He asked Laplace. Laplace considered for a moment and said, "Every branch in Tooth Immortal's Ruin is decorated with a blue book. Let's see which mirror has the mark of the book. "
Despite that, Angor still felt that his head was full of reflections from all the mirrors in the trading area. It wasn't easy to find a special mark.
The one-eyed monster stuttered, "I-I-I'll lead the way. Sirs, I'll lead the way."
"Alright then. Lead the way."
The one-eyed monster trembled and nodded. It then followed Angor's lead.
Angor looked at the trembling monster and wanted to comfort it by saying, "Don't worry, we're not going to eat you." But when he thought about it, he felt that they were acting like bullies by blocking the way. Comforting the monster now felt like a wrong idea.
Angor decided not to do so. He would talk to the monster later. If the monster was hostile, he would punish it. If not, he would just pretend nothing happened.
Laplace and the bunny girl didn't object to Angor's decision. The monster was acting strangely at first, as if it thought they were humans and wanted to do something. Angor was a human, so it was normal for him to have such thoughts.
While the one-eyed monster was fantasizing about running away, being attacked from behind while leading the way, and having its corpse destroyed, they finally arrived at the Tooth Immortal's Ruin branch.
When he saw the mirror that represented the Tooth Immortal Ancient Ruins branch, the red-skinned One-Eyed Monster relaxed a little. Fighting was forbidden inside the Tooth Immortal Ancient Ruins. The aura of those who violated the rule would be forever rejected by the Tooth Immortal Ancient Ruins' memory and listed as unwelcome. Also, anyone who caused too much damage would be hunted down by Tooth Immortal's Ruin powerhouses.
This was why the one-eyed monster suggested coming to Tooth Immortal's Ruin. At least it would be safe inside.
But it was a different story outside of Tooth Immortal's Ruin.
The one-eyed monster gritted its teeth and decided to stay in Tooth Immortal's Ruin forever if those people really wanted to kill it.
While the monster's expression kept changing, Angor was observing the mirror of the Tooth Immortal's Ruin branch.
It was a standing mirror.
It was only two meters wide, much smaller than the other mirrors around it. However, it had a delicate appearance. Not only did it have a frame, but it also had a logo of a blue book on top.
"Yes. This is Tooth Immortal's Ruin branch. Ancient Tooth Immortal does have such a feature."
"Feature?" Angor was confused..
"The entrance is small and delicate. It allows Ancient Tooth Immortal to go in.
However, for most of the mirror creatures, this door was too small. If they wanted to enter, they would have to shrink themselves. In the Ancient Tooth Fairy's opinion, letting them shrink themselves was a sign of respect.
Just entering the door gave Ancient Tooth Fairy a sense of superiority.
"But the inside of Tooth Immortal's Ruin must be big. It's not to satisfy the size of other creatures, but because Ancient Tooth Immortal thinks that the bigger it is, the more knowledgeable it is."
The bigger it was, the more knowledgeable it was because the Tooth Immortal's Ruin headquarters was already very big. It was filled with all kinds of books, scrolls, and knowledge carriers. The Tooth Immortal's Ruin branch did not have such facilities, but it still retained its grandeur.
Laplace continued, "Of course. I personally think Ancient Tooth Immortal built it so big because it's too small. It worships whatever it lacks. "
Laplace did not try to hide his words. Both Angor and the one-eyed monster heard it.
Angor's feelings aside, the one-eyed monster was already trembling in fear. As he listened, he looked around. Fortunately, the Ancient Tooth Fairy was not around. Otherwise, just this "violent discussion" would make the Ancient Tooth Fairy view them as enemies.
The one-eyed monster hoped that Ancient Tooth Immortal would reject them. But it was right beside them. If Ancient Tooth Immortal really treated them as enemies, the one-eyed monster would surely be dragged into the mess.
As for explaining to Ancient Tooth Immortal … just look at the shop owner with the antler bag. Explaining was useless in front of a powerful being.
"So Ancient Tooth Immortals are a bunch of prideful little creatures?" Angor asked.
Laplace nodded. "You can say that."
"What about the Tooth Immortals from Tooth Fairy Paradise? Are they as prideful as Ancient Tooth Immortal? "
The one-eyed monster almost jumped up. It looked at Angor anxiously, as if it wanted to say something.
Angor was puzzled. Laplace kindly explained what the one-eyed monster wanted to say. "You can mention the Tooth Immortals from Tooth Fairy Paradise in front of Ancient Tooth Immortals, but you can't compare them to Ancient Tooth Immortals. That's a big taboo for Ancient Tooth Immortals. "
Angor remembered that Laplace mentioned that Ancient Tooth Immortals now called themselves Scholars of Mirror Ocean, which meant that they were completely different from the Tooth Immortals from Tooth Fairy Paradise. Of course, they all looked the same to the outside world. However, Ancient Tooth Immortals were in charge of the trade, so the mirror creatures would still respect them.
"But it won't do anything to them," Laplace said in a plain tone.
The reason was simple. With Laplace here, Ancient Tooth Immortals would not dare to cause trouble.
"But if you want them to open an online shop, they probably won't do it."
Angor nodded. "Got it."
While they were talking, the red-skinned one-eyed monster asked meekly, "Are … are we going in?"
It did not want to speak, but these people were getting more and more ridiculous. It was really scared that Ancient Tooth Immortals would suddenly show up. If that happened, it would also get dragged into the mess, and it would not be able to explain. In order to stop them from talking, the one-eyed monster gathered its courage and asked while they were still talking.
Angor did not know that the one-eyed monster was so scared that it almost peed its pants. He thought that the monster had calmed down a little, which was a good thing. After all, Angor did not plan to do anything to the monster. He only asked it to come because he was curious.
"Sure, let's go."
With Angor's permission, the one-eyed monster quickly stepped into the mirror, fearing that something bad might happen if it stayed any longer. Angor and the others did not fall behind and followed him inside.
When Angor entered the inner area of the Tooth Immortal's Ancient Ruin branch, he was surprised for a moment.
How big was the inner area? It was only a little smaller than the trading hall in Tree Spirit Garden. It was about two or three hundred meters in length and width, while the height was only a few dozen meters.
However, the furnishings, tools, cabinets, and bookshelves were all ridiculously huge. It was as if they were made for giants. Correspondingly, a group of infant-sized humanoid creatures flew in front of the enormous artifacts.
These tiny humanoid creatures wore all kinds of clothes, most of which were heavy and scholarly. They all had a pair of transparent cicada-like wings on their backs, which allowed them to fly freely. The most distinguishing part about them was the top of their heads.
This group of little people all wore a hat on their heads, and the style of the hat was extremely similar to teeth.
There were human baby teeth that looked like crowns, wolf teeth that looked like magic hats, and elephant teeth that looked like demon horns. Angor was quite surprised to see all of them.
"Those little creatures with teeth on their heads are … Tooth Immortals?"
Laplace nodded. "Yes. But you should call them Mirrorsea Scholars. Oh, right. The Tooth Immortals in Tooth Fairy Paradise also wear such hats, but they look more elegant and graceful. You can tell whether they are Ancient Tooth Immortals or Ordinary Tooth Immortals by their clothes. "
Angor wanted to ask why the Tooth Immortals had teeth on their heads and their talents, but he decided to put it aside for now since he would have a chance to ask them in the future.
Ancient Tooth Immortal didn't react much to Angor's arrival. In fact, it didn't even look at them.
There were simply too many mirror creatures in the Tooth Immortal Ruin.
Angor's previous surprise had something to do with these strange-looking mirror creatures. Before this, he could only see a few of them outside. But inside the ruin, there were so many of them.
Ancient Tooth Immortal already had a hard time dealing with the mirror creatures in front of it, let alone paying attention to the newcomers.
Of course, it wasn't that no one noticed them.
A few crystals floating in the air glanced at them.
According to Laplace's voice transmission, these crystals also belonged to the "Crystaleye Race". They were hired by Ancient Tooth Immortal to guard and supervise the branch in order to prevent theft of resources. They also had to keep an eye on the guests who were trying to steal their goods.
In other words, they were another type of surveillance.
"These are just the juniors of the Crystaleye Race. Usually, there will be a Crystaleye Race powerhouse in the branch. They are the true guards. Their strength is about the same as the truth-finder Adepts of your Adepts," Laplace transmitted.
About as strong as truth-finder wizards? This wasn't an accurate measurement. Level-1 truth-finder wizards would have different levels of strength depending on the path they chose.
However, judging by the median number of truth-finder wizards, the Crystaleye Race fighters were already quite strong.
Angor's group didn't move toward the display cabinets or bookshelves. Instead, they went to the communication area — or rather, the resting area. The Crystaleye Race fighters only glanced at them and didn't pay them any attention.
The communication area was a place for people to exchange information, abilities, and memories.
However, most of the mirror creatures who came to Gold Rush City were here for training, so the communication area here was very quiet.
However, it was only a branch in Gold Rush City, and the communication area was very cold. For example, the exchange area in the headquarters was very lively.
Well, at least Angor and Goth wouldn't be disturbed.
Goth was the red-skinned monster's name.
…
"So, tell me. Why did you target us?" Angor looked at Goth.
Goth gave him a bitter look. "No, I didn't. I didn't do anything."
Although they had already arrived at the Tooth Immortal Ancient Ruins branch, Gou Si still felt a little uneasy. He felt that the three "people" in front of him were a little too unscrupulous … He could feel it from the way they had talked about the Ancient Tooth Immortal at the entrance of the Tooth Immortal Ancient Ruins.
"I heard you say 'human'. You're looking for a human, aren't you? Or are you looking for food? "
Goth quickly waved his hands. "No. I only eat crystals, nothing else. Especially humans. I don't dare to eat them. "
Goth's nervous look wasn't fake. Angor used his Beyonder Perception to sense the monster's uneasiness. Especially the second half of the sentence, when Goth mentioned "humans", it sounded more like fear.
Angor didn't know why Goth suddenly came here, but he was sure the monster wasn't looking for "humans".
Since that was the case, Angor didn't try to force Goth to answer. "Why are you so nervous when talking about humans?"
Goss swallowed his saliva in fear and said in a low voice, "Because my master is a human."
He was planning to let Goth go if he didn't get an answer, but Goth didn't.
However, Goth's answer piqued Angor's interest.
"Your master is a human?" Is he in Gold City? "
Goth looked at Angor cautiously. "What do you want?"
Angor knew what Goth was thinking. "Do you think I'll use this body if I don't like humans? I'm just curious about what you did before. "
"You can leave if you don't want to talk." Angor pointed at the exit nearby.
Angor was curious why Goth's master was a human, but he wouldn't force it if Goth didn't want to talk.
Goth looked at the exit and then back at Angor. "Can I really leave?"
Angor shrugged. "Sure."
Goth looked hesitant as if he was trying to figure out Angor's plan. After hesitating for a long time, it finally stood up and resolutely walked towards the exit.
Before Goth left, Angor spoke in a low voice, "You can go to your master and seek revenge from us if you want. We'll be here for half an hour. If you want to do that, you better do it within that time. "
Gou Si staggered, but he did not dare to turn his head back. He braced himself and rushed out.
"You're going to let her go just like that?" Laplace watched Goth's figure disappear.
Angor shrugged. "I'm not going to do anything to her anyway."
Laplace remained silent for a moment. "So what are you going to do now?"
"Since we're already here, let's see if there's anything worth buying in Tooth Immortal's Ruins."
"You don't have crystals."
"You don't accept bartering here?"
Laplace shook his head. "The headquarters does, but not this place. But there's a special channel for selling items. You can sell something valuable for crystals."
Angor nodded. "I see …"
He wasn't planning to trade crystals for now. Crystals were both a training resource and a currency for the mirror creatures. But for Angor, they were only currency, and he had nowhere to use them outside of the mirror domain. Still, if he found something he liked, he wouldn't mind trading it for crystals.
…
This was only a branch of Tooth Immortal's Ruins, but there were still a lot of goods for sale.
Angor took a quick look and found that there were three main types of goods. Most of them were resources related to cultivation. Since most people came to Gold Rush City for the concentrated energy, the headquarters of Tooth Immortal's Ruins did the right thing by focusing all their resources here.
The second type was defensive resources. Most of them were used to buff the dome, while some of them were used for personal protection. These resources were considered strategic resources in Gold Rush City, and each of them was sold at a very high price.
Speaking of which, it was worth mentioning that Tooth Immortal's Ruins had two ways of purchasing items: "open bidding" and "direct purchase". Among them, the best-selling goods, such as cultivation resources and defensive resources, were all displayed on display cabinets. Above the display cabinets was a square mirror. This mirror was the mother mirror of the mother-mirror system. It was connected to the countless sub-mirrors in the hall. If one wanted to bid, one only needed to enter their own price into the sub-mirror and the mother mirror would display it, similar to a semi-public bidding.
The direct purchase items were considered "unsaleable items". These "unsaleable items" were not bad. In fact, some of them were even more valuable than the items listed in the auction. However, few people were willing to buy them. Moreover, the prices of these products were not cheap.
Back to the main topic. The third type of goods could be classified as "miscellaneous items". These included skills, memories, real objects, and so on.
Generally speaking, unsaleable items were all in this category.
But this was only the situation in the City of Hot Gold. According to Laplace, in the headquarters of the Tooth Immortal Ancient Ruins, the best sellers were memories and physical objects.
It could only be said that different environments created different purchasing intentions.
Angor glanced through the items. He was most interested in some special defensive resources, which could be used by wizards as well. However, when he saw the increasing prices, he decided to give up.
Apart from defensive resources, Angor was also interested in "memories" and "real objects".
Laplace saw Angor looking at "memories" and went straight to the point. Her Forest of Memories was full of memories. If Angor was interested in them, he could go there first.
Angor hesitated for a moment before he realized that he still had the Forest of Memories.
The Forest of Memories was already placed in the Dream Crystal, and he could go there whenever he wanted. There was no need to pay attention to the memories here.
As for "real objects", they could be brought back to reality, so Angor was quite interested in them. However, Angor did not find many valuable items in this place. Most of them only had the slightest supernatural aura.
Still, there were some items among them that attracted Angor's attention.
For example, there was a half-length mirror on top of a display rack in front of him.
Yes, it was a mirror again.
This half-length mirror was placed at the top of the display rack, which meant it was not popular. Angor was not interested in the mirror itself. It was because he saw familiar patterns on the surface of the mirror.
When he was about to take a closer look, he heard a strange voice in his ears.
"You're interested in this mirror?"
