Chapter 68: The Secret Room

"No, you should have gone to Mother Susan first," said Tia, "Mother Susan cares about you, she must be looking for you." ”

"Mother Susan......" Rein felt a trace of warmth in his heart when he saw Susan's mother's huge body and hearty smiling face. However, he then reversed the proposal, saying, "I can't continue to trouble Mother Susan, the people of the Dark See will be against her." ”

Tia looked at Rein and understood his intentions, she felt his kindness, but his strength did not allow him to face a powerful enemy alone at this time.

"But...... You can't face the two major forces of the Temple of Light and the Dark Holy See alone, even if you are a Grand Magister. ”

"yes, you're just a rookie who just learned two magics." Bai Zhe echoed.

Rein lowered his head, thinking about what to do next. In this world where strength is king, it is difficult for him to move an inch now that he is weak. To find his way back, he had to become stronger.

At this moment, as if in response to his thoughts, a slight light emanated from a corner of Mirror City, and his heart suddenly lit up, it was a secret room in a castle, and the light of the magic crystal shone inside.

Rein looked up and said, "Did you sense it?" ”

"What?" Bai Zhe was puzzled.

"A secret room with a lot of magic crystals in it." Rein said with some excitement.

Bai Zhe shook his head in confusion.

Rein said, "If you take a closer look, it seems that Mirror City wants to convey some news to us." ”

So Bai Zhe and Tia both gathered their minds to feel and listen.

After a while, Bai Zhe's eyes lit up.

Seeing that he was reacting, Rein hurriedly asked, "What, do you feel it?" ”

Bai Zhe said happily: "I didn't sense your secret room, but Mirror City wants me to go to a place over there, and it seems that there is something to give me!" ”

Tia also said: "I sensed it...... It's a lot of magic, and that magic seems to be trying to tell me something, but it's not the same place as what you're talking about. ”

Rein looked at Mirror City and said, "It seems that Mirror City has a different message to convey to us. So, let's go our separate ways, each to the place where we call for ourselves, and then we'll meet back here. ”

Bai Zhe jumped up and said, "Then it's decided!" With that, he couldn't wait to run in one direction.

Rein turned to Tia and said, "Where are you going?" ”

Tia pointed to the outside of Mirror City and said, "Outside Mirror City." ”

Rein nodded and said, "I'm going to Mirror City, then let's separate here first, you be careful." ”

"Okay, so are you."

"Hmm."

Rein's Tia said goodbye and turned and ran towards the castle of Mirror City, the place that called him must have some special secret.

Bai Zhe kept running to the place where the signal was given, and when he got there, he found a patch of armor, among which the stern and majestic helmet had two dragon horns. He recognized the armor, it was the knightly armor of a general of the Guardian Knight, and he saw him commanding the Guardian Knights in battle as he ran through the walls of Mirror City, and he vaguely heard that his name was Lance.

Bai Zhe walked over to the armor that was no longer formed, and looked at the knight's sword stuck in the ground. This knight's sword, decorated with the handle of the golden dragon, still exudes the glory of General Reims in the past, and the sword body that has experienced vicissitudes reflects the pride of the knight. Bai Zhe remembered the appearance of General Lance commanding Ruoding at the head of Mirror City, and suddenly felt what this sword wanted to convey to himself: he wanted to inherit this knight's great sword himself, rather than let it be dusted here.

Bai Zhe stretched out his hand and pulled out the one-meter-six knight sword, and saw the inscription "Firmament" on the sword.

The sword was very heavy and weighty to hold in your hand. Bai Zhe used his strength to lift the sword, as if he had obtained a priceless treasure, the texture of the handle of the Firmament Sword matched the palm of his hand, and there was no strangeness of first contact.

Getting a weapon in his hand, Bai Zhe was overjoyed and said to the Sky Sword: "I will definitely train hard and become a knight worthy of you!" ”

As if sensing the mind of his new master, this Firmament Great Sword emitted a faint golden light, shining in the dim space of the Mirror City, as if responding to Bai Zhe.

Tia followed the faint call and walked out of the Mirror City, and after a while, she finally came to a barren land outside the city. If it weren't for the slight magic emanating from inside, Tia would never have noticed this inconspicuous land.

She looked for tools to dig from, found a rock, and dug it up. Finally, she dug up an ancient magic book from the dark earth.

Tia pulled out the magic book and cleaned it up, and found that the ancient magic book made of unknown materials was not damaged in the slightest, and it was probably its own magic that protected it.

Tia opened the magic book and suddenly felt a strange and familiar power, and the body that Ambala occupied came to her mind.

"Char! This is...... Char's Magic Book! Tia came to this conclusion. As if answering her questions, the magic book emitted fluctuations of magical power. Tia made contact with it with her magic, and the two resonated. The words and symbols on the magic book glowed, and the magic that Char had written on the magic book was flowing into Tia's mind in a steady stream.

Rein walked through the old castle of Mirror City, stepped up the dusty and gravel staircase, walked through the corridors, and came to a quiet secret room.

He pushed open the dusty door and entered the secret room.

This secret room is not big, it is empty, there is nothing, it is surrounded by magic crystals, and the light blue light slightly illuminates this confined space.

He looked around carefully, only to notice that there was an ancient magic circle on the ground.

"It's this magic array...... Are you calling me? With this question in mind, Rein walked over. A gust of wind blew the dust off the magic array, revealing its entire shape. I don't know if it's the wind that I brought with me when I walked over...... Rein didn't think much of it, and walked to the magic array.

This ancient circular magic circle is made up of regular arcs and straight lines and peculiar symbols, exuding a mysterious aura in the glow of the magic crystal.

Rein looked around again, and after making sure there were no other anomalies, he chose to sit down in the magic array. His instincts told him that this would be the only way to know why the mysterious voice had called him here.

Rein sat cross-legged, adjusted his breathing, closed his eyes, and entered a meditative state.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a different place.

He seemed to be still in the original secret room, but there were many more things around, soft carpets, warm candles, ornate decorations, and there was an extra figure in front of him, an ethereal figure that did exist there.

Rein didn't feel fear in his heart, his instincts told him that this shadow was not an enemy.

He asked, "Who are you?" ”

The shadow responded directly in his mind, saying, "Who am I? It doesn't matter, what you should be asking is: Who are you? ”

"Who am I?" Rein frowned and said, "I just ...... I'm ...... Rayne. ”

"Why hesitate? Are you not sure who you are? ”

"I'm Rein!" Rein thought the question was a bit silly, but he replied firmly.

The shadow laughed β€” maybe not β€” and it was just a feeling, and it said, "You're Rein?" And who is Rein? Are you the only one in the world named Rein? ”

"......" Rein didn't think about the question, but the answer to the question was obvious, "Of course not, I'm just one of them." ”

"What's that that sets you apart from the rest of Rein?"

"Distinguish...... The way I look. ”

"And what if there's a man who looks exactly like you, also named Rein? How do others know which one is you? How can you be sure which one is you? ”

Isn't this a question of the real or fake Monkey King, although Lei Yin never thought that he would encounter such a problem, but since he asked, he had to think about it. "Of course I know which one is me," he said. My mind is in my body, and I'm pretty sure of who I am. If someone else confuses me with a pretender, then I explain it through words, telling them something that only I know. ”

"Your soul? What if your soul leaves your body? What if someone snooped into your memories and knew you knew everything about you? What about you...... What about finding yourself? ”

What the shadow said made Rein creep out, and if it got to the point where he couldn't do anything about it, it really couldn't be proven. Rein opened his mouth and closed it again, somehow to say yes. He asked, "But who will let my soul go away and pretend to be me?" ”

The shadow said, "You know the answer." ”

Rein thought for a moment, looked at the shadow in shock, and said, "You mean...... Son of Darkness? ”

The shadow made another sound that seemed to be smiling, and said, "Yes, he is in your body, feeling everything you feel, knowing everything you have, and I am talking to you now, and I am talking to him." ”

"What?" The thought of having another unknown soul in his body sharing a body with him made him feel sick, frightened, and restless, but he couldn't get rid of it, and he asked the shadow, "...... Is it really in my body? What the hell is he? ”

The shadow said, "He is you, the other you, yourβ€”the shadow." You come from another world and you come to Green Weilan, and he awakens. Just like Mirror City and its shadow, if your body enters your shadow, you can no longer tell who is the shadow and who is the essence. ”

Rein suddenly felt cold all over, he looked at his hand, and felt that another pair of eyes were looking at it from the same position, and a feeling of familiarity and strangeness came over him. He hurriedly asked the shadow for help: "Then what should I do?" ”

In the first tone, the shadow said, "You just have to answer meβ€”how do you find yourself if your soul is lost?" ”
