"Messenger of the Black Sun, you...... Why did it come about? ”

The gentle words are like a stone thrown into stagnant water, and when it falls into the spiritual world of the messenger in the mirror, it causes waves and ripples.

The dazed misty figure shook slightly, and it "looked" at the human woman in front of it in a daze, and the mist that made up the face shook slightly, as if thinking and understanding the meaning of the other party's words.

The woman was very patient, and she stood quietly in front of the cage, waiting for the other party's response.

It was during this process that the consciousness of the man named Hug Ernst began to gradually awaken, and then Siug realized that he was clearly asleep or unconscious, and it was in this situation that he once again touched the dream of the Mirror Messenger.

As the substitute of the "protagonist" of the dream, Xiuge couldn't really do anything, but he could clearly feel the state of the messenger in the mirror.

Its spiritual world is empty, with neither memory nor knowledge, and these important "fillers" seem to have been completely destroyed and erased for some reason, and although it can understand the message transmitted by the human woman in front of it through magic, it has no way to answer accordingly.

Now it's like a pure white paper.

Or rather, a child who is learning and understanding everything around him.

As Hug was trying to make sense of what was happening, the human woman in front of her seemed to be aware of it through her own powers, and she looked a little surprised, as if she didn't quite understand why such a strange case had occurred.

After a moment of thought, she raised her hand again, and as the complex magic patterns began to appear, a pale blue, flowing water light and shadow wrapped around the messenger in the mirror.

Faced with this strange power in front of him, the messenger in the mirror only felt extremely curious, and it even raised its unstable palm and gently touched the soft color.

However, with this movement of the messenger in the mirror, the stream of water formed by the converging magic power naturally wrapped around its arms and fingers, and began to seep rapidly into its body, but in just a few seconds, this color had completely disappeared into the body of the messenger in the mirror.

At this moment, the empty spiritual world of the messenger in the mirror also had a different color.

It's like a blue starlight that emerges in the thick of the night.

It's faint, but it's dazzling.

The Mirror Messenger stood still, all its attention drawn to the light given by the other party, and as it tried to explore this special gift in its own spiritual world, the blue starlight suddenly burst out, spilling more light into the dark, dark corners.

In this moment, countless fragments of sounds, patterns, and lines spread out in this empty and void world.

These are things that the Mirror Messenger has never touched before.

It was obsessed with it, and its body made of pitch-black mist even began to change violently as its mind surged.

The surface of its body began to show more color, and its face changed with the scattered memories and knowledge......

Seeing that the messenger in the mirror accepted her "gift", the mysterious woman let out a pleasant chuckle, and then she shook her fingers slightly, and the heavy stone slabs that made up the enclosed basement immediately appeared a faint sheen, and then she stopped looking, turned and walked out, and closed the door of the basement with her hand.

At this time, Shuge is also able to "see" or "read" these wonderful memories that have been instilled.

The first thing he heard was a lot of voices.

At first, it was the abundant sounds of nature, and then the sounds created by the activities of various ethnic groups.

Raising bonfires, hunting wild beasts, cutting and building, slaying and fighting......

Then there's language.

These languages were completely different from the lingua franca and the dialects of some regions, and they were distinctly of different ethnicity, from which Hug could easily identify the Ogre's somewhat bulky tongue syllables, as well as the elves' habit of flicking their tongues.

After the sound, the words and images begin to appear.

Hug first saw the cold sun hanging over the earth, he saw the sea and land changing due to all kinds of strange forces, he saw the boundless behemoth forest slowly moving forward under a special will, and he saw countless races born or destroyed in the dispute, including the hideous and twisted sea beasts, but also the rats that Hug had seen.

Finally, there are many familiar figures in the picture.

Humans, elves, goblins, and other races labeled as "inferior" or "inferior" began to appear frequently, and at first, they fought and clashed over food, territory, or other resources, just like any other race.

They are also attached to the powerful beings in order to survive, and they will serve them as servants, and they will sacrifice their people for their power......

These images from ancient times fascinated Xiuge, but just as he was about to read further with the messenger in the mirror, a sudden noise interrupted his thoughts.

The sound was crisp, rapid, and noisy.

When it reached Shug's ears, the stable dream was severely disturbed, and the original clear ancient images began to blur, and the connection between Shug and the messenger in the mirror was forcibly severed.

Eventually, the dream faded, and Xiuge opened his eyes in exasperation.

He was very, very familiar with the sounds that disturbed his dreams, the high-frequency tapping of the keyboard, and even the blue switch keyboard.

It's just mad.

He turned his head to look around and realized that he was indeed in the dream shelter, so he immediately got up from his collapsed office chair and looked at the source of the keyboard tapping not far away.

Then he saw a figure sitting behind the familiar computer.

He has a slender body and long hair.

"You're finally awake, I thought you were going to go back to sleep."

Drilling into the ears is the characteristic voice of Theseus, which, although it sounds feminine, is still a combination of countless different voices.

Shug frowned and came to Theseus's side, he pulled a chair away, and before he could sit down, the corner of his eye suddenly caught a hint of strangeness.

He turned his head to look towards the end of the area, only to find that the deep fog that had been separated at the end like a wall was now much lighter, and he could still see through the fog even from a distance.

Upon discovering this, Shug immediately went to the window, but the world outside the window was still pitch black, and nothing could be seen.

After observing for a while, Shug returned to Theseus's side, and he asked, "What's going on?" ”

Theseus tapped lightly on the keyboard, and this time, he, or rather, was not playing games that seemed to have special meanings, but was editing a document, but when Theseus tried to read the contents of the document, he found that the words inside had become strange lines, and it was impossible to distinguish them.

Hearing Hugh's question, Theseus tapped the save button on the document, then she turned around and replied, "As I said before, this sanctuary is a special existence that I use to preserve the remnants of a long time...... Some of its power is already connected to the Abyss Court. ”

"The black sun has reappeared, and although it is still very weak and will take some time to fully stabilize, it is enough to have an impact here."

A somewhat eerie smile appeared on Theseus's face, and she pointed to the black mist at the end of the hallway, and said in a tone that was provocative and seductive, "Curious, isn't it?" Want to check it out? I've got your back. ”

Xiuge's eyebrows twitched, and he asked, "What's in there?" ”

"Although the power itself is basically intangible, it can also serve as a channel and a carrier."

Theseus said slowly, "In order to maintain the existence of the shelter, I ...... a little Well, borrowing a little bit of power from the Abyss Palace, it's really only a little bit, after all, this can make the shelter more stable, and it can also make it more comfortable, and it's not easy to feed such a large group of remnants, right? ”

“……”

Hearing this, Shuge fell silent for a moment, and then he said, "You mean, if I enter these once isolated areas, there is a good chance that I will step into the sphere of influence of the Abyss Court?" ”

"Not really."

Theseus hurriedly shook his head: "Don't think about it so seriously, after all, I said that the authority I borrowed is only a little ......"

Xiuge looked at the other party expressionlessly: "What you just said is obviously power, not authority. ”

"That's what I said wrong."

Theseus spread his hands very "frankly", and a "sweaty soybean" that made Xiuge's blood pressure rise jumped out of his face: "In short, if you want to smuggle into the Abyss Court through this kind of place, there is probably no chance...... But if you're wandering around, there's a chance you'll run into some of the Abyssal Court's, uh, natives? ”

"Aborigines?"

"Yes, Aborigines...... Cute, funny and friendly, you will have a chance in the future, don't you have a hound yourself now? The more you walk inside, it's easy to see more. ”

Hearing this, Shuge immediately dismissed the idea of exploring those areas.

He remembered very well that when he had just obtained the tooth of a hound, a strange proverb popped up in the depths of his mind.

"The hounds of the court roam the courtyards, tracking never cease, and the hunt never ends...... This is the boundless hunting ground for you, praise the great invisible wolf! ”

He didn't want to be the target of a pack of weird hounds, let alone the so-called "invisible wolf" behind them.

After talking about this, Shug dragged a chair and sat down, he looked at Theseus and said, "If you didn't wake me up just now, I should have gotten more useful information from that dream...... Did you do it on purpose? ”

"Don't think so."

Theseus's voice became languid, her body leaning completely back in her chair, her legs crossed, and a gesture that would be easy to evoke in her usual state: "You are awake only because the content of the dream ends here...... When the time comes, you'll be able to know what's going on. ”

Xiuge glanced at Theseus twice, and then said: "This mirror messenger who carries the dream seems to be a little special, it seems to have experienced some kind of accident, all traces related to the Abyss Court have been erased, can this also happen to the existence of the mirror messenger?" ”

"It's normal."

Theseus explains: "Although the clans have different forms and ways of being, they all have their own spirits and wills in order to be able to keep in touch with their gods...... And since you have the spirit and will, you may become an 'empty shell' when you encounter some more extreme situations. ”

"Extremes?"

"Well, for example, forcibly crossing the gap between the Abyss Court and the physical world, in this case, the non-physical clan can easily be severely damaged by the 'storm' that swept through the gap."

Speaking of this, Theseus suddenly paused, and then she suddenly let out a long sigh of extreme humanity, and her voice softened: "Probably because of this, she didn't dispose of me at that time...... After all, the 'Messenger of the Black Sun', in front of any race, will only represent a new round of disasters and sacrifices. ”

Hearing this, Xiuge's eyes couldn't help but widen.

Although Xiuge had already guessed countless times before, he was still shocked and surprised when Theseus admitted it himself.

"So, this is Mel...... No, this is the first time the leader met you? ”

Hug almost uttered the title "Goddess Mel", but he changed his words in time.

Theseus was quite satisfied with Shuge's reaction, and she nodded: "yes, that's what happened when we met, to be honest, I really don't want you to see these things, in terms of your concept, this kind of content should be my privacy." ”

Xiuge stared at the other party: "So...... Why? ”

"Because it's important, or rather, I think it's important."

Theseus straightened up, and although there was no clear change or expression on that face, Theseus clearly felt the other party's gaze, and the tremendous pressure that followed.

He felt as if he had returned to the moment when he first spoke to Theseus.

"Those efforts you made before the black sun rose...... It's not bad, although they didn't completely jump out of my expectations, but from now on, I won't look at you as an 'actor' anymore. ”

For some reason, it suddenly occurred to him that Theseus's voice seemed to be somewhat similar to that of Mel in his dreams.

He heard Theseus laugh and say, "There are many things that need you to participate in the future, so work hard." ”
