After listening to the parrot's story, Angel looked a little speechless.
He originally thought that the mirror ghost who imitated Luigi had some kind of all-powerful ability, that he could read people's thoughts and control everything in his hands.
Unexpectedly, the mirror ghost deceived the parrot and cheated out the contents of the contract just by relying on some verbal tricks.
Angel's self-conceit of being "high-ranking" is really just self-conception.
However, the main reason for the wrong guess was that the parrot was too calm before. In addition, the parrot was able to play tricks on Daoshen and others, which made Angel think the parrot was too smart.
I never expected that parrots would have blind spots in their thinking when they were excited, ignoring many details and mistaking others.
Of course, this is also because the parrot and Luigi are not familiar with each other.
After the parrot finished speaking, his face was also full of embarrassment. He scratched his scalp and said with a smile: "I was so thinking about leaving at that time that I didn't consider many things."
Angel sighed lightly and said nothing.
Laplace, on the other hand, said nonchalantly: "Fan confusion is actually an instinct engraved in the mirror ghost's body. They are not inferior to the Changhuo tribe in terms of verbal temptation. In fact, in a short period of fanning, they are even more powerful. Fierce."
In other words, the parrot was fascinated by the Tao at that time, perhaps not only because he was too excited, but also because the mirror ghost himself had mastered the skill of fanning.
Under the influence of many factors, parrots will become careless and ignore many details.
After listening to Laplace's words, a trace of gratitude flashed in the parrot's eyes. Regardless of whether what Laplace said was true or not, what she said helped him out and made him not look so stupid.
However, the expression Angel looked at Laplace was quite intriguing.
Based on Angel's understanding of Laplace, she probably wouldn't go out of her way to help the parrot out of trouble, because this matter didn't seem to her to be a serious matter that required a rescue.
So what she said just now was not to relieve the siege, it must have other intentions.
As expected, Laplace paused and continued: "Generally speaking, the fanning of the mirror ghost does not last long."
"Because fanning is just their instinct, not their verbal skills like the Changhuo tribe."
"Moreover, Fan Huo is only useful when the mirror ghost is awake."
But the vast majority of mirror ghosts have limited waking hours.
Even for the intelligent mirror ghost group, they may only be awake for a few hours a day, and their thinking is down at other times.
"But the light and shadow demon just now seems to be a little different." Laplace raised his eyes and looked at the parrot: "According to your description, he has been staring at you for a long time. In other words, he has been awake all the time and has not been awake since. Constantly plotting against you, confusing you, and using tricks to deceive you..."
"If it was a normal mirror ghost, he would have recovered his chaotic thoughts long ago, but he still maintains his complete self."
"This is incredible."
A trace of interest flashed in Laplace's eyes. It was not like she had never seen a mirror ghost before, but it was rare for a mirror ghost to remain rational for such a long time.
The one similar to the previous one is none other than the Scarlet Lantern Demon Queen from Resentful Girl Town.
The Scarlet Lantern Demon Queen is a special talent that can be born among millions of Scarlet Lantern Banshees.
Could this light and shadow demon be just like the Scarlet Lantern Demon Queen, a special talent born by chance?
Angel also understood at this time that Laplace's so-called rescue was actually just because he discovered the special features of the light and shadow demon and became interested in it.
Thinking of this, Angel said: "Indeed, according to my understanding of the mirror ghost, the light and shadow demon is incredible. It seems to be in a sane state all the time."
Angel looked at the parrot: "You just said that you and the light and shadow demon are enemies. I guess you are familiar with it, right?"
The parrot was not stupid, and immediately understood what Angel meant, and quickly explained: "The light and shadow demon was originally just an ordinary mirror ghost. It even had no self-awareness at the beginning. It was similar to the undead in the outside world. It was in a state of confusion all day long.
state."
"But later, due to some changes, it became the pawn of some kind of disaster creature."
"With the help of the disaster creatures, he slowly began to gain self-awareness."
"Now, it seems that the original consciousness has awakened."
When the parrot said this, he recalled what the Mirror Ghost said before when he was in front of him: "In his own words, it is... under the gift of the great disaster life, his original consciousness has been completely transformed."
"I don't know what this means specifically, but if you interpret it according to his words, it may mean that he has been able to stay awake for a long time."
Angel probably understood that what the parrot said could be summed up in one sentence: the originally ignorant light and shadow demon gained independent consciousness with the help of the disaster creatures.
But what is the "disaster creature" that the parrot talks about?
Faced with Angel's question, the parrot thought for a while and said: "The disaster creature is the blood disaster. It is also what the light and shadow demon calls... the master of blood."
At this point, the parrot's expression was slightly hesitant, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know whether he should say it or not.
After a while, the parrot seemed to have made a decision. He took a deep breath and said calmly: "Actually, I have no grudge against the light and shadow demon itself. I have a grudge against... the blood disaster."
Angel was still confused after hearing this.
Does Parrot have any explanation? That's totally fine.
The disaster creature is equal to the blood disaster, and it is also equal to the master of blood. But Angel doesn't know what these three names represent...
Instead, Laplace said softly: "I probably know what he is talking about, but... I can't be sure yet."
On the other side, after the parrot mentioned "taking revenge on the blood disaster", he seemed to be stuck in some kind of memory and remained silent for a long time.
After a while, he came back to his senses.
The parrot raised his head and looked at Angel and Laplace, with an apologetic look in his eyes: "I'm really grateful to you two for coming, but the disaster creature is a real disaster, and I don't want you to
Implicated by me."
"If possible, I hope you can tell the rice god what happened here..."
The parrot wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by Angel: "Since we are already here, it is meaningless to talk about this."
"As for the matter between the Rice God and you, you can resolve it yourself."
"Now, what we are more curious about is the blood disaster and the disasterous creatures."
The parrot was silent for a moment and said softly: "If you want to explore the hatred between me and the blood disaster, we have to start from many years ago..."
Angel originally just wanted to ask about Bloodscourge, but Parrot seemed to have misunderstood something and started directly talking about the process of enmity with Bloodscourge.
Angel thought about it but didn't stop it. Anyway, he finally achieved his goal.
There is only a process, and the other only has results.
As the parrot talked, Angel gradually understood the reason behind it.
In wizard years, about thirty years ago, Parrot was still working in a Void Caravan Group, and he also got his code name "Parrot" from the Void Caravan Group.
The people of the Void Caravan Group not only roam the void with goods for business, they also have other jobs. These jobs include: inspectors, adventurers, escorts, pioneers... and so on.
For example, they will accept other people's travel entrustments and take them across time and space to the corresponding destination.
Also, accept commissions from extraordinary beings, guilds, and organizations from different worlds, to send messages to people on the other side of the void, or to explore and survey certain unknown places.
When the Void Merchant Group becomes more and more famous, even those supernova organizations will entrust them.
Thirty years ago, Parrot and the others received a commission from the Supernova Organization - the Lawful Guild.
The content of the commission is probably: An inspector who is stationed in the Druna plane all year round discovered that there was a suspected "mysterious phenomenon" and needed assistance from the Lawful Guild.
The job of the inspector is to avoid disasters caused by mysterious disorders.
But the strength of the inspectors in each world is different. In a world where mysteries occur frequently, the inspectors dispatched will be stronger; in a world where mysteries occur less frequently, the corresponding inspectors will be weaker.
.
The probability of mysterious events in the Druna plane occurring is relatively low, which also results in the low strength of the observers in the Druna plane.
He discovered a mysterious phenomenon and couldn't deal with it himself.
More importantly, the location of that mysterious phenomenon was somewhat special. It was located in the divine domain of a certain god, and he couldn't even enter it. The news of the "mysterious phenomenon" was only obtained by him from "top people" related to this god.
I heard about it in "Tribe".
The Lawful Guild was also very embarrassed after learning the news.
After all, the inspectors did not witness the "mysterious phenomenon" with their own eyes, so it may not necessarily be a problem caused by the "mysterious" disorder. It would be a bit too hasty to send people there like this.
There are only a few mystery hunters themselves, and all of them are very busy.
If there is nothing, then it is a wasted trip.
But if you don’t send someone there, it seems a bit lazy.
Finally, the Lawful Guild contacted a void caravan group that happened to be in the Druna plane and entrusted them to help investigate the situation.
If even the people in the caravan group thought there was a "mysterious" disorder problem, they would immediately send a mysterious hunter.
At that time, the business travel group that accepted this commission was the same business travel group that Parrot belonged to.
It just so happened that Parrot was very familiar with the Druna plane and often disguised his identity to go to the Jianren tribe to collect magic materials, so he was arranged by the business group to investigate the situation.
Of course, Parrot is not alone, he is just one of a hundred-person team.
After a lot of hard work, they finally succeeded in entering the divine realm.
Then they discovered that this divine realm originated from a "lost" alien god, or beast god.
"Lost" means missing for a long time, or has fallen away.
In short, there are no gods in the divine realm, only the power of the gods remains.
In this lost divine realm, they found a lot of good things, and even found an extremely rare apex tree cultivated with the direct blood of the beast god.
These sharp fruits possess the purest blood of the beast god. Once eaten, they can even gain the ability of the beast god. They are the most top-notch existence among all sharp fruits.
However, it was precisely because of this blood-tipped fruit tree, the direct descendant of the beast god, that their group encountered the most dangerous thing after entering the divine realm.
They were locked by some unknown phenomenon.
This phenomenon is the "mysterious phenomenon" reported by the inspector. The specific situation is: as long as it does not comply with some mysterious rules, the blood in the body will dry up instantly and the person will turn into a mummy and die.
From the observer's perspective, this was most likely caused by a mysterious disorder.
However, after Parrot experienced it, he can say with certainty that the phenomenon here has nothing to do with mystery. Because there is no mysterious atmosphere here.
But even if it is judged that it has nothing to do with the mystery, it cannot save themselves.
After all, they didn't know the specific reason that caused their companions to become mummified and die one after another.
A team of a hundred people fell down in an instant, more than a dozen of them.
Moreover, in their opinion, the mummification of these people was completely unpredictable and there seemed to be no warning signs, which caused a panic.
The leader of the team is an extremely shrewd person. When others were in chaos, he calmly analyzed and reviewed, and finally determined one thing.
All mummified people are within the reflection, refraction and diffraction range of the "mirror".
Or to put it more simply, there must be a mirror around the dead person. This kind of mirror is not just a mirror, even smooth glass, small puddles, and even marble slabs that can reflect people's shadows are also classified as
inside the mirror.
According to the captain, it is very likely that there is a being hiding in the mirror, using the mirror as a springboard to harvest their lives.
If you want to leave safely, you can only move without being reflected by the mirror.
But this is difficult, because in the current divine realm, although the gods have been "lost", there are magnificent decorations everywhere, and everything is as smooth as a mirror.
The most important thing is that they cannot use space abilities in the divine realm, nor can they fly.
In other words, they had to leave on foot. But there was no way to avoid being shot by the mirror on foot.
When everyone was hiding in a corner and unable to do anything, a light drizzle suddenly started falling from the sky.
And then... someone else died.
Raindrops can also be used as a tiny mirror.
Obviously, the unknown existence hidden in the mirror is no longer satisfied with just relying on the existing mirror to kill people. "It" also plans to take the initiative to keep all of them in the divine realm.
Seeing the situation getting worse and worse, the captain made a decision: to enter the mirror.
The other party seems to be restricted by some kind of rules and can only kill one person at a time. In other words, when he kills others, others are safe.
As long as "it" kills people, others can sneak into the mirror.
The people in the business group can do business in the void, so they naturally understand the Mirror Realm. Although they do not have the ability to directly enter the Mirror Realm, if there are mirror realm creatures that interfere with the outside world, they can counter-invade the Mirror Realm through the mirror where the opponent is located.
.
The captain has always believed that the murderer was some kind of mirror realm creature hidden in the mirror realm. When "it" kills people, the mirror surface will definitely fluctuate. As long as the opposite mirror surface is found, it can invade the mirror realm.
When the time comes to kill each other, their crisis will be completely eliminated.
In the end, the captain really succeeded in finding the mirror entrance.
A group of people, including Parrot, entered the mirror. They thought that as long as they found the murderer, they would survive.
However, what they didn't expect was that behind the mirror was... the dark mirror realm.
