They made it back to the main chamber without any problems.
Every labyrinth guard was waiting for them. Angor did a quick count and found no one missing.
Moreover, there was a crystal ball-like shell floating beside every labyrinth guard, and it was filled with supplies.
Obviously, these were Ljuno's "relics" they found in the ruin.
"Thank goodness you're back, Misters!" The captain of the labyrinth guards stepped forward and let out a long sigh of relief.
They agreed to explore the ruin separately and meet up at the main chamber. However, Angor and Laplace still took too long.
It had been almost four hours.
Four hours was not a long time to explore an unknown ruin without a map. However, there were signs, lights, and even small maps everywhere.
Besides, they were all supernaturals. They couldn't use space manipulation, but they could still fly from the leftmost end of the ruin to the rightmost end in a short time.
It only took the labyrinth guards half an hour to search for the "relics" left behind by Lv Nuo.
They spent the rest of the time waiting in the main chamber.
Angor and Laplace didn't show up for several hours, which worried them a lot.
After all, Angor and Laplace were important guests. If something happened to them, they wouldn't be able to explain it to the outside world.
They waited anxiously for three and a half hours before Angor and Laplace finally came back.
This allowed the Labyrinth Guardians to finally let go of their worries.
"Sorry to keep you waiting," Angor said, feeling a little embarrassed.
They could have come back an hour earlier, but they didn't expect that they had to follow the rules of the puppets when returning from the mosaic space.
Furthermore, the "path" that appeared when they returned was different from when they came.
They went through the Wind Path, the Musical Path, the Clock Path, and the Blood Path, which could be ignored.
Among the first three paths, the Wind Path was the easiest. You had to use the wind to fly forward without landing on the ground. Otherwise, you would lose the game.
The Musical Path was also easy. You had to follow the steps of the puppets, jump on the path made of piano keys, and play a piece of music without stopping.
Only the Clock Path was more difficult. Angor and Laplace made a mistake here. They didn't know the rules at first, and they only realized that they had to calculate the time difference on the clock before them.
Because of this, they had to move forward again and were delayed for a while.
The Blood Path also seemed to have complicated rules. Unfortunately, Angor and Laplace didn't pay attention to the puppets' paths at all. Instead, they just flew up.
They could see the light spot on the cliff in the distance.
Since they could see the cliff, they didn't need to walk. They just flew there.
The puppet was obviously angry. It chased after them while complaining. Angor didn't know Ordovician language, but he could guess that it was cheating.
So? Angor.
They didn't want to come back here anyway.
Also, he felt great when he saw the puppets getting angry but not being able to do anything to stop them.
The "taunts" he received along the way made him want to stay on the cliff a little longer so that he could see the puppet's expression again.
However, Angor's clone kept urging them, and the labyrinth guards were probably worried about them. Angor decided to let go of the puppet and left the mosaic space with Laplace feeling refreshed.
"It's fine no matter how long we wait. We're just worried that something might have happened to the two of you." The maze guard captain smiled. "Fortunately, everything is fine."
The guards knew that Angor and Laplace must have gone to a hidden space in the ruin.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken them so long.
However, they didn't ask about the hidden space at all. Instead, they hoped that they could get out of the mirror vault as soon as possible. This was what they kept worrying about for three and a half hours.
Angor felt a little embarrassed. He quickly nodded when the guard suggested to leave.
They didn't talk for the rest of the journey.
They left the mirror vault without any problems.
The mirror maze outside had returned to normal. Looking around, they saw a maze of mirrors everywhere.
However, as soon as the crystal ball appeared, the spirit of the giant city seemed to have sensed their presence. In the blink of an eye, the mirror maze disappeared, and a path leading to the outside world appeared in front of them.
Without any hindrance, they returned to the outer hall of the mirror warehouse a few seconds later.
They opened the door and saw the scenery of the 50th floor.
The labyrinth guards sent them here and then hurriedly returned to the labyrinth. Their job was done, and they should return to their posts now.
However, the leader of the Labyrinth Guards stayed behind.
In fact, the guard captain had originally planned to leave, but just as he turned around, the crystal in between his eyebrows suddenly flickered.
Prophet Jota sent them a message.
"Sir, Prophet Jota knows that you left the mirror vault. He hopes that you can wait for him for a moment." The guard captain listened to Prophet Jota's message and explained, "Prophet Jota said that he's almost done with the crystal of a corpse. He'll send it here soon."
The guard captain's lips twitched when he heard the word "crystal". However, he quickly suppressed his curiosity and returned to his normal expression.
"If you're not in a hurry, you can take a rest in the room next door. Prophet Jota will be here soon."
After a pause, the guard captain took out a crystal from his pocket. "If you really have something to do, you can take this crystal with you. Later, Prophet Jota will follow the crystal's location and find you two."
Angor exchanged a look with Laplace. "We're fine. We can wait here for Jota."
The guard captain sighed in relief and put away the crystal. "Then, please follow me."
Under the lead of the guard captain, they arrived at a room next to the mirror vault.
The room looked empty. Apart from a sofa and several crystal tables and chairs, there was nothing else.
According to the guard captain, this was where the maze guards held their meetings. Behind this room was their dormitory.
Now that all the guards were on duty in the mirror vault, this room was empty.
After the guard captain finished his introduction, he took out two cups of cold black tea from somewhere.
Looking at the cold tea on the table, the guard captain explained with some embarrassment, "We only have this here. This is the Frozen Tooth Black Tea that is popular in the Tooth Fairy Paradise … If you two don't like it, I can buy it again."
Angor shook his head. "No need for that. You can go now."
The guard captain nodded, bowed, and left.
After the guard captain left, Angor took a sip of the Frosttooth Black Tea.
As expected of the Frozen Teeth Black Tea, Laplace felt that his teeth were cold the moment it entered his mouth. Also, the coldness was like a virus that spread through his teeth and into the depths of his brain.
He felt as if his brain was being washed by an icy tornado.
It wasn't uncomfortable. In fact, he felt refreshed.
It was a strange experience though. His eyes, nostrils, ears, and every other part of his body seemed to be leaking cold air.
As expected of a beverage from another world.
Just like the 'Elemental Dragon's Specially Tuned Electric Water' he drank in the Silver Forest Space, every sip seemed to be a great adventure full of surprises.
Angor didn't like the taste, but he still finished the cup in one go so as not to waste it.
Drinking a cup at a time and drinking only one sip at a time were two completely different things.
He felt as if his mind was frozen. It took him a long time to regain his senses.
He turned his head and found that Laplace had also finished her Frostbite Black Tea, but her expression was very calm, and there was nothing unusual about it at all. She even commented, "It's not frostbite enough. It shouldn't have been made by the Tooth Fairy."
Angor didn't know what to say.
Angor touched his eyebrows which were already covered in white frost and remained silent.
"I don't think Prophet Jota will be here anytime soon. He needs to prepare tens of thousands of Saint Corpse Crystals. Should we go to the Silver Forest Dimension and see the clone first? "
Laplace nodded. She had the same idea too.
The God's Blood doppelganger could not speak for the time being, so he had been urging Laplace through telepathy for more than four hours.
Even Laplace felt that his "doppelganger" was too noisy.
In order to stop his doppelganger from nagging, Laplace summoned the silver mirror.
She dragged Angor into the Silver Forest Dimension.
…
Silver Forest Dimension. The Land of Sleep.
When Angor opened his eyes, he saw that he was already in the Land of Sleep.
At this time, the Land of Slumber was still as quiet as ever from the "sound", but from the "glasses", it was quite lively.
In the distance, there was a peaceful lake, a quiet gravestone, and a swaying flowerbed.
Nearby, there was the Black Forest, a dancing tea table, Zeus Thundercloud, and … a library beside the tea table.
Everything looked very lively.
In particular, the newly emerged library was obviously in the style of a fairy tale, as if it had a warm yellow filter. Not only was the lintel bright, but he could also see the bookshelves full of books inside. Additionally, the windows on each floor were very clean and transparent, and he could clearly see Laplace's avatar reading inside.
Without a doubt, the new library was the one he created earlier, which was filled with Ordovician books.
Through the window, he saw more than one avatar reading a book in the library.
"That's it?" Angor muttered.
"It's just my memory. I can't translate the whole thing yet. But someone already knows how to do some simple translations. "
"I think it's the water element clone. She's faster than everyone else."
"So you're going to let your avatar learn Ordovician?"
Laplace nodded. "If they do, so will I."
Angor didn't know what to say, but he also felt jealous. If he could have so many clones to help him learn, he wouldn't need to go back to Brute Cavern to settle down. He could just leave his body and soul on the road.
Angor suppressed his jealousy and followed Laplace to the tea table where people were dancing.
It was a familiar seat.
However, there was no familiar person at the tea table.
Angor sighed in relief. On his way here, the tea table was filled with his energy clones. They didn't do anything, but it still felt strange to be surrounded by so many people.
If he wasn't mistaken, they all went to the library to read.
Angor was glad that the library he created on a whim saved him from being stared at by others.
Could this be considered as … luck?
Only Angor, Laplace, and Luigi were at the tea table.
However, Luigi seemed to have fallen asleep again. Angor was sure that Luigi didn't enter the Dream Crystal. In other words, Luigi was just sleeping. Maybe he was studying "Vermilion Bird" and "Evil Abyss".
As soon as Angor sat down, the familiar book with a thick cover flew out and began to turn the pages while asking Angor what he wanted to drink.
Angor quickly stopped the book and told it that he already had a drink.
Laplace also chimed in, and only then did the thick-shelled book stop doubting him.
The book didn't ask for any drinks, but the teacup with a mouth still showed up on the table.
Along with the dancing table, the teacup began to sing a song.
It seemed to be the opening act for today's "tea party".
Angor watched the "performance" quietly and was about to ask about the god's blood clone when Zeus Thundercloud flew to his side again.
The thundercloud circled around Angor several times and kept muttering, "Zeus Zeus …"
At first, he thought Zeus was trying to express something else. "It's just expressing its gratitude to you," Laplace told him.
"It likes the name you gave it."
"… It's been almost a day already. Is it too slow to react?"
"No. It likes the name so much that it's out of time."
Angor hesitated. "Then when I come here next time …"
Laplace nodded. "If I'm not mistaken, it will continue to express its feelings. After all, its love for the name is beyond time, and love needs to be expressed. "
