He didn't need to improve his strength for now, but he still needed to learn more about the world.
This was something that even Olao himself admitted.
After being separated for ten thousand years, he knew nothing about the outside world. He needed to broaden his horizons.
However, when he asked Olao how to improve his knowledge, Olao's answer surprised him a little.
"I can use mirrors to observe other people's lives," Olao said. When he saw Angor's strange look, he quickly added, "I'm not peeping. I'm just learning."
"… That's the same as peeping."
Olao opened his mouth but didn't say anything in the end. "I'm just saying. I haven't done it yet."
The reason Olao mentioned using a mirror to observe other people's lives was because he often saw Adanis doing it in the Clear Sky Poetry Room.
When he thought about how to broaden his horizons, the first thing he thought of was to use mirrors to observe people's lives.
But just as he said, although he wanted to do it, he hadn't done it yet.
Ever since he woke up, he spent the past few days taking care of his "child" and watching DVD boxes. He didn't have time to do anything else.
"I don't mind you using your ability to 'learn', but it's risky."
Angor pointed at a mirror in the corner of the soundproof room. "Why don't you try using that mirror?"
In fact, Olao had seen this mysterious half-body mirror the moment he entered the quiet room.
As one of Augustine's creations, Olao had seen many Mystery items, so he quickly recognized it as a Mystic-level mirror. In modern terms, it was half-Mystic-level.
Olao wasn't too surprised by the mirror. However, he was a little worried about possessing this mirror.
"Are you trying to tell me that mirrors have different types? If you possess this kind of mirror with mysterious power, you might encounter a mishap. "
Angor shook his head. "I'm not an idiot. You know what you're talking about. Normally, you wouldn't possess a mirror with Mystery aura. That's not what I meant."
"It's fine if you don't want to use it. I'll take you inside."
Angor walked to the Unbreakable Heart Mirror and put half of his body inside, leaving only his head outside. He then signaled Olao to follow him.
Olao hesitated for a moment, but still followed him.
Not long after, Oleo entered the buffer space of the Unbreakable Heart Mirror.
After arriving at the buffer space, the first thing Oleo did was sigh at the stability of this space. Such a sturdy space was not much worse than the mirror space of his main body.
Following Angor's instruction, Olao saw a silver-haired girl resting on an illusion sofa with her eyes closed.
When he saw the silver-haired girl, Olao's entire body trembled, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"La — Laplace?!" Olao couldn't believe his eyes... Why was Laplace?
Did Angor imprison Laplace here?
"Don't think too much. She's just a guest." Angor was a bit annoyed. Olao's eyes were so clear that he could read Angor's mind.
Angor paused for a moment before he continued, "Now you know why I said the possession is dangerous, right? Who knows if there's a powerful creature inside the mirror you're using? "
Olao swallowed his saliva and nodded in understanding.
Olao believed this was a rare case, but he didn't have time to prepare for it. However, he didn't have time to prepare, nor did he tell Laplace about it. He simply took Laplace to watch the whole thing, which still left Olao in awe.
"There's a risk in using a mirror. It's the same outside the mirror. Think about it. If you're using the mirror of a powerful being like the Dark Earl, do you really think you can survive?
Besides, you won't even have a chance to defend yourself. You're the one who stole the mirror first. You're in the wrong. "
Olao nodded obediently. "I understand."
Angor didn't forbid Olao from using another mirror. It all depended on Olao's purpose.
If Olao only wanted to broaden his knowledge, he could just take a walk outside. There was clearly a better and safer way, so why would he do something that was strenuous and unrewarding?
Angor walked to a sofa nearby and asked Olao to sit down.
Olao glanced at Laplace, who was not far away, but didn't move. However, he still looked at Angor with admiration. How dare he sit beside Laplace so boldly?
Speaking of which, why was Laplace sleeping all this time? Was he really just a guest? Was he really not a prisoner?
Olao didn't believe in "guest" at first. But seeing Laplace sleeping like this, he began to doubt it. They were inside the mirror. Did Angor use the mirror's Mystery property to keep Laplace here?
If that was the case, the mirror was a bit scary.
Olao kept glancing at Laplace, then back at him, and Angor quickly realized that Olao was imagining things again. "She looks like she's sleeping, but she's actually doing something else."
As for what? Fishing, for example.
"You can ask her when she wakes up," Olao said.
Olao quickly waved a hand. He hadn't fully recovered yet, and he didn't dare to face Laplace directly. Besides, even if he did, he wouldn't dare to provoke the legendary Fate of the White Sun Mirror Region.
Angor didn't continue talking about Laplace. Laplace couldn't hear them right now, but it wouldn't be hard for her to see what happened in the buffer space after she went offline.
Angor looked at Olao again. "There are many ways to broaden your knowledge. If you're still trapped in the room, I won't say anything if you use the mirror to observe other people. But now that you're free, you have many ways to broaden your knowledge. Under such circumstances, it's not wise to choose a risky method. "
After pondering for a brief moment, Olao cautiously asked, "Then, it should be fine for me to use it to broaden my horizons, right?"
"Huh?" Angor didn't understand what Olao meant.
"The Apothecary of Strange Flame is good. I think it's interesting. You can learn about the stories of people in the current era, and see the different cultures of different places …"
"… The story is made up."
"I know. Stories like this are usually made up. But there must be a prototype, right? Besides, the culture part isn't made up, right? "
Angor really wanted to say that there was no prototype, but he decided against it.
As for the various cultures in the movie box … that part was not made up.
If Olaf wanted to understand this era through the background details, it was possible … but it would be quite troublesome. Wouldn't it be faster to go shopping and read some books?
Angor complained in his mind, but he had to admit that using a movie box to learn about the current era was a completely safe method. If Olao insisted, Angor wouldn't say anything.
Next, Angor discussed with Olao about this issue and was convinced by the old man's decision.
Compared to observing the world in a rigid way, Olao seemed to prefer using a movie box to see the world.
Maybe it was because he spent too much time in the Poetry Room and couldn't help himself from watching a TV series like The Apothecary of Strange Flame.
Angor thought that it wasn't a bad idea to combine education with entertainment. Besides, making a movie box wasn't too troublesome. He could also make some for Olao so that the old man could learn something specific.
With that in mind, Angor began to think about which healing stories he should use as teaching materials.
…
Angor chose to talk to Olao not only because he wanted to hear Olao's opinion, but also because he wanted Olao to know more about him.
As partners in the future, it was important for them to learn more about each other.
Still, it would take time for them to get to know each other. Angor did not plan to tell them everything at once.
He only planned to let Olao know one thing today.
The Unbreakable Heart Mirror.
First of all, he created the Unbreakable Heart Mirror recently. It couldn't prove his alchemy skills, but it could at least boost Olao's confidence.
After all, they both shared the same goal, which was to create a Mystery item.
With this Half-step Mythic item as a foundation, Olao felt a little more at ease.
Besides, the Unbreakable Heart Mirror was connected to the White Sun Mirror Domain, which meant he needed someone to help him with some of his burdens.
Angor was a human after all, and it wouldn't be as convenient for him to move around in the mirror domain. Olao wasn't a mirror creature, but he had the characteristics of a mirror creature, such as the ability to gather energy. Therefore, Olao could help Angor a lot inside the mirror domain.
Besides, Olao could also learn a lot by interacting with other mirror creatures.
Third, Olao could temporarily take over Angor's position in the heart space.
Angor's heart space was floating above the Mirror Sea, and he could collect a lot of benefits from the sea by using the item collector.
This was a very stable source of benefits.
Unfortunately, no one was at the helm, which meant this source of benefits was left empty.
Angor's original plan was to let the young Astral Guardian take over the helm. Unfortunately, the Astral Guardian was still in a daze and couldn't do it. Therefore, he planned to train Olao to be the temporary helmsman until the Astral Attendant was ready for something big.
Besides, he didn't need Olao to stay at the helm all the time. He only needed to check on things from time to time.
All in all, introducing the Unbreakable Heart Mirror to Olao was beneficial for both of them. It was also the first step for them to get to know each other better.
It didn't take long for Angor to explain the general situation of the Unbreakable Heart Mirror.
For example, the crafting location happened to be the Chamber of Poetry. And the refining time was when Olao was in deep slumber.
Another thing was that the Unbreakable Heart Mirror's ability was Absolute Sturdiness, which also came with an extremely sturdy mirror space.
After hearing Angor's explanation, Olao gained a basic understanding of the Unbreakable Heart Mirror.
In Olao's opinion, the Unbreakable Heart Mirror's ability wasn't very useful even if it came with a spacious mirror space. Olao, who had been living in the real world for a long time, couldn't understand the uniqueness of the Unbreakable Heart Mirror just by listening to Angor's description.
Still, even if the Unbreakable Heart Mirror's effect wasn't "strong", Olao was still shocked.
He thought Angor got the Unbreakable Heart Mirror from somewhere else, so he wasn't too surprised. But now, Angor told him that he crafted it himself, and not too long ago.
This caused Olao to be very shocked.
Back when Nether City fell and Olao went into hibernation, Augustine didn't craft anything with Mystery properties.
Back then, Augustine was already as strong as a legendary wizard.
He even stole Mary Gold from the Path of Infinity under the watchful eyes of many legendary wizards. Later, Augustine used the Mary Gold to craft the true forms of Olao and Adegu.
According to Augustine, it took him a long time to make Adegu shine with a mysterious aura after he brought him to the Origin World.
Now, Angor was only a level-1 wizard, and he was already able to touch Mystery properties with ordinary materials.
How could Olao not be shocked? Not surprised?
Olao now understood why Augustine chose to entrust him to Angor and told him that Angor was the only one who could help him catch up to Adegu and even surpass him.
Angor's talent couldn't be called human! He was a monster!
He was more like the main character of Apothecary of Strange Flame!
…
What Olao didn't know was that Angor's creation of the Unbreakable Heart Mirror was mostly due to the crazy hat's coronation.
However, Angor didn't mention the crazy hat's coronation.
He didn't mean to hide it. It was just that they didn't trust each other enough.
Sunders was the only one who knew that Angor was "crowned by the mad hat". No one else knew about it.
Even Sunders didn't know about the crazy hat's coronation. Many "black hat" coronations appeared in Angor's hands.
Just like Feng, Sunders thought it was just a "white hat" coronation.
As for items that were crowned with white hats, although they were also very effective, they were of a completely different quality compared to those that were crowned with black hats.
One was in the sky, while the other was on the ground.
Angor didn't tell Sunders everything about the "black hat" because it was too strange. Of course, he didn't know Olao for long.
Of course, Angor wouldn't mind telling Olao about the crazy hat when they trusted each other more in the future.
But now wasn't the time.
