He felt a little helpless, but he quickly calmed himself down.
He couldn't change it anyway, so he had to accept it. He could just treat the cat's meowing as a pet name. There were plenty of wizards with pet names anyway.
Besides, he didn't need to use his mouth to express his thoughts. Spirit Bond, mental communication, and even verbal communication could all help him avoid the "pet name" problem.
Angor felt much better now.
Of course, he didn't completely ignore the pet name. He just didn't have enough time to study it. He could always do that after he left the Mirror Domain.
With that in mind, Angor looked at Pew and Pika.
They had recovered from the shock. Their faces were still pale, but at least they were calm now.
"Sorry, I just ran into a little problem. I'll have to wait for the food I promised." Angor gave him an apologetic look.
Pika quickly waved a hand to indicate that it was fine. After experiencing the horrible stench, he no longer had the desire to eat. Even if Angor did bring out some delicious food, he wouldn't be able to swallow it.
Piw and Pika had the same thought. However, there was a hint of doubt between his brows. After hesitating for a long time, he still asked the question in his heart, "Is … Is there a problem with my blessing? "No."
Angor shook his head. "No, there's nothing wrong with the blessing. It's the box." "Alright."
He saw that Pew was still frowning, so he added, "The blessing this time won't do anything to me, but it can help me gain something in other ways. It's already good enough for me, so don't worry about it. " "Alright."
Angor was telling the truth. Ever since Laplace told him about it, he had a strong feeling that the pair of red ears on top of his head would be of great help to his Mystery manifestation.
The effect of the blessing was useless to him, but the side effects of the blessing were very useful to him!
Besides, he could use it to study the Mystery aura around him.
All in all, it was worth it to receive the blessing this time.
Pew sighed in relief. "I'm glad I can help you, mister." "Alright."
Maybe it was because Pew had been tense all the time, but when he finally relaxed, he collapsed on the sofa as if all his energy had been sucked out. His eyes also lost their luster.
Pika explained, "Using two blessings in a row took a lot of energy out of Pew's brain. "
Angor remembered that Pew was still resting upstairs when they arrived. "Should we send him to his room? "
Sage Pika: "It's fine, I'll do it. "
As Sage Pika spoke, he gently touched a dark pattern on the table.
As the dark lines were activated, the sound of flowing water could be heard from the ground.
He looked down and saw a pool of crystal-clear liquid flowing out from a crack on the floor. The liquid expanded like a balloon as soon as it came into contact with the air.
In the blink of an eye, he turned into a crystal robot.
Its entire body was made of crystals, but through its translucent skin, one could see the gears running inside, as well as a miniature steam furnace. Various mechanical organs formed a crystal robot that looked similar to Pelouxiu but was two meters tall.
"This is …" As soon as Angor saw the crystal, the "server" in his mind space quickly activated and showed him a series of data. Most of the data was unknown, but it was more than 90% similar to what Angor saw earlier.
[Crystal Shell? Yes.]
It was the Crystal Shell invented by the Crystaleye race.
According to the data provided by the "server", the crystal had the same composition as the Crystal Shell.
The only difference was that the crystal shell summoned by Sage Pika was obviously mechanically modified from the inside.
"Yes, a type of Crystal Shell. To be more precise, this is a joint effort between the Pelouxiu race and the Crystaleye race.
The crystal-shell mechanical soldier type he had developed — Transport Soldier. Sage Pika seemed to be satisfied with the Transporters. He looked at the gigantic object with a smile.
"Crystal Soldiers?" Luigi moved closer. "Are these the Mechanical Soldiers I overheard you talking about at Barregon's place?" "Yes."
Sage Pika nodded. "Something like that. You heard that they're Assault Soldiers, but they haven't taken shape yet. The only ones we have are Transporters and Scouts. "
"Transport soldiers have great strength and can do rough work. Scouts have godly speed and are number one in terms of mobility. "
"How come I've never heard of them before? This is confidential information, right? " "Yes.
Sage Pika nodded. "Sort of. But it doesn't matter if I tell you. I'm sure the leaders of the Crystaleye race won't come after you. "Yes.
Pelouxiu and the Crystaleye race worked closely together before, so he knew some secrets about the race. It was said that the greatest prophet of the Crystaleye race once entered the Empty Mirror Sea and saw a certain great being. He never forgot about it until his death.
Who was that great being? Sage Pika wasn't sure, but he was sure that it was the one behind Luigi's back.
Therefore, telling Luigi about the Crystaleye Soldiers wouldn't make any difference.
Sage Pika controlled the transport soldier to carry the limp Pi Wu and said to Luigi, "Actually, two years ago, the Crystal Eye Race came to us. They wanted to use special crystal shells to develop a combat troop class that could exert defensive power and mobility. They hoped to cooperate with us in the research and development. "
Luigi: "Everyone knows what the Crystaleye race wants. They already have an invincible defense, but they still want powerful attacks. How greedy. "
Sage Pika smiled and didn't comment. Instead, he continued, "Because of this cooperation, they didn't refuse when we asked to hold a party in their territory. Also, Pelouxiu can get a lot of information about the Crystaleye Soldiers and keep 30% of the Crystaleye Soldiers. It's a win-win situation for us. "
With that, Sage Pika controlled the Transporter to carry Pew to the second floor.
Sage Pika also stood up. "I'll go take a look as well. Pew needs to soak in a special nutrient solution to recover quickly. The Transporter can do a good job, but it doesn't have AI. I'll have to do most of the work myself. "Alright.
Please give me a moment. "Alright.
Luigi nodded.
While Pika went upstairs, he could use this chance to clean up the mess caused by the box's mutation.
When Sage Pika went upstairs, only Angor, Luigi and Luigi were left downstairs.
Luigi immediately looked at Angor. He had a lot of questions that he needed answers from Angor.
But before he could say anything, Laplace suddenly spoke up with a strange expression, "Something's wrong with the box. "Huh?
Box? "
Everyone looked at the box out of reflex.
At this time, the secret instrument box was still covered by Laplace's barrier. Inside the sharp-edged mirror barrier, a pitch-black fog was surging, completely covering the secret instrument box. There was not a trace of it at all.
Under such circumstances, they couldn't see what was happening to the box with their naked eyes. They looked at Laplace and waited for her explanation.
Laplace considered for a moment. "It's hard to describe with words. I'll take it out for you. "Alright.
In the next second, Laplace's eyes glowed, and a horizontal crack appeared in the void behind her. A glass hand made of geometrical mirrors reached out from the crack.
Apart from its clear appearance, the glass hand also gave Angor a strange sense of "divinity", as if it was the hand of a deity.
Such a miraculous hand reached into the mirror screen that was filled with black mist without any hindrance. Furthermore, not a single trace of black mist leaked out.
The glass hand rummaged through the barrier, trying to take out the secret instrument box.
"Wait." The glass hand was holding it.
Luigi suddenly stopped it. "Are you sure there's no more black smoke coming out of the box?" "Yes."
If the secret instrument box continued to release the black and gray stench after he took it out, wouldn't he have to suffer again?
Laplace glanced at Luigi. "The ritual is over. The box has cooled down." "Yes."
As he spoke, the glass hand that was clenched into a fist had already retracted from the mirror barrier.
When the glass hand returned, Laplace slowly opened his fist.
The box was right in the center of the glass hand.
Angor did not find anything different about the box. There was no strange smell. The four elemental symbols on the box, which represented the ritual of "Sweet Wind, Honey Fire, and Sugar Spread", were all normal. The gothic rose background was the same as before.
At first glance, he didn't see anything different about the box.
Only when he used his spirit power to check the box did he realize something was wrong.
Other than the patterns on the box, the rest of the box was pure white, without any other color. Using his spirit power, Angor could see that the box was now covered with a layer of dusk.
The color of dusk was similar to gray, with a hint of silver in it.
It was completely different from the pure white porcelain.
Angor tried to touch the box with his hand. It was still as cold as before. Using his hand as a medium, he did not find anything wrong with the box.
It was as if he could only see it with his spirit power — or rather, energy vision.
"Can you see what's going on?" Angor asked Laplace.
If the dusk was some kind of energy, why couldn't Angor see it? He could not touch it either.
If it was just an illusion, why did it change again when he used his spirit power?
Angor could not figure out what was going on. He could only ask Laplace, who was more knowledgeable, for an answer.
But Laplace did not understand it either. She thought for a moment and said, "If there are traces, it means it exists. But why can't I see it? That's strange. "
"I don't know the details. I can only make some guesses. Maybe it's because of ritual? "
After all, Laplace did not know much about ritualism.
She only knew that ritual could be big or small. A small ritual could change the weather of a place, while a big one could destroy an entire world. Besides, ritual was all-encompassing. Blessing, luck, prediction, summoning, disaster avoidance … It covered almost everything imaginable and unimaginable.
More importantly, rituals could be easily hidden before the results were out.
For example, Laplace once saw a remote world where countless residents began to pray for rain because of a drought. At this time, some evil shamans deliberately added some redundant details in the process of praying for rain.
The East Village had an extra rain dance, the West Village offered sacrifices to cows and horses, the South Village came out of their homes to pray for rain, and the North Village held a bonfire to pray for rain at night …
These seemingly insignificant actions eventually formed a special summoning ritual.
A Water Succubus from the Abyss was summoned — Panasi Succubus.
Panasi Succubus did bring "rain", but it was a rain of extinction that lasted for an entire month. This remote continent was drowned in a pool of water.
It was these extra details that completed the summoning ritual.
Those who did not know about rituals would not be able to see the purpose of these details. Even those who studied ritual would not be able to tell.
Ritual studies were too complicated. Besides, high-level creatures often modified rituals, which made it difficult to study them thoroughly.
Therefore, rituals were very secretive. Before the results were out, it was hard to tell whether it was a ritual or not.
"Maybe the change in the color of the porcelain is part of a ritual? Only when the ritual is completed can we know what it is. "
"Use it." Laplace said.
"You mean there's more than one ritual inside the box?" Angor asked, "Sweet Wind, Honey Fire, Sugar Spreading Life?" "Okay.
"Maybe it's a variation of Sweet Wind, Honey Fire, Sugar Spreading Life. Who knows? It's just a guess. I don't know much about ritual studies." "Okay."
Angor nodded and made a mental note of this possibility.
Laplace continued, "Apart from the matter of etiquette, I have another guess. "Okay."
"Please, go ahead." "Okay."
Laplace looked at Angor. "Do you remember what Parrot said? The creator of the box probably wanted to mutate the food. Mutation is a positive guidance. " "Okay.
"And without a doubt, the situation just now was a mutation. "Okay.
"If the mutation of the Mystic Instrument Box is really a positive guidance, then what exactly is this positive guidance? It was hard for other people to verify this because the chance of the box mutating was very low. "Okay.
But you … "Laplace looked at Angor." You're not like them. Alright. "
Angor wanted to tell Laplace that he was just unlucky. But in the end, he held his tongue. He was sure Laplace wouldn't believe him. Angor used the box twice in a row, and both times, the box mutated. If that could be attributed to luck, then Angor had to be unbelievably lucky.
"You caused a mutation in the box, and the positive direction of the mutation might be … the change in the porcelain surface. Alright.
Laplace: "Of course, this kind of change can't happen overnight. If you use the secret instrument box more often in the future and let it mutate more, you should know the truth of the positive direction. Alright. "
Angor was speechless. "So the box mutated when I used it?"
Angor sighed. "But it didn't change like that last time. Alright. "
Laplace pondered for a moment and said, "That's a question that needs to be considered. My personal guess is that the reason for the porcelain's change might have something to do with your blessing. Alright.
"The only difference between the two mutations is that you received the Blessing of Delicious. Alright.
"I'm not sure, but I can't think of anything else. "
Angor considered for a moment and agreed with Laplace. "Maybe the Blessing is what caused the change. "Okay.
Laplace: "Don't say 'maybe'. What you need to consider now is …"
"If you want to find out whether the change is caused by the positive guidance, you'll have to control the variables and keep using the box." Laplace: "Do you know what I mean? "Okay.
"In other words, you only have one month to study the changes in the porcelain surface." "Okay.
After a month, the effect of the blessing would disappear.
At that time, if the Secret Instrument Box mutated again, it might not necessarily change.
Angor nodded. "I understand. I'll try my best." "Okay.
Laplace: "Don't worry, I'll help you. You need four elements to use the box, and I can use my Elemental Clone to help you. "Okay."
"Why?" "Okay."
Laplace said indifferently, "There's no reason. I just have a premonition that when the truth behind the changes on the porcelain surface is revealed, it might be very interesting. "Okay."
Angor considered and didn't refuse.
While they were discussing, Luigi's voice suddenly interrupted. "What do you mean by what you said just now? Also, isn't this the only mutation? Why do you have 'last time'? When was the last mutation? Why don't I know about it? "
