After the divine blood clone left, only the shadow clone remained on the tea table.
At this time, Angel and Laplace both focused on the shadow clone.
"Is there any new progress on the Blood Disaster side?"
The phantom clone nodded: "Yes, according to the original body of Blood Calamity, its eyeliner has found Grandma Longcrow..."
Now, Morrigan has passed the ritual arranged by Blood Scourge and communicated with Granny Dragon Crow.
Granny Longcrow has already learned about the Disaster Puppet, and has agreed to join forces with the Blood Scourge to cooperate with them remotely to locate the approximate location of the Disaster Puppet.
"This information...actually, I don't need to tell you, you can probably guess it."
After all, Granny Dragon Crow must be more aware of the overall situation than Blood Scourge, and with Morrigan's negotiation, she must understand the dangers of the Doom Puppet.
Although Granny Longcrow has been stationed at the Ghost in the Mirror all year round, her roots are in the Sun Mirror Realm. She cannot just watch the Sun Mirror Realm dissipate and remain indifferent.
Therefore, as soon as Morrigan finished speaking, Granny Longcrow agreed to cooperate fully.
"Compared with the information about these known developments, I think you will be more interested in another news brought by Granny Longcrow." When the phantom clone said this, he paused deliberately.
Angel: "What news?"
Phantom clone: "News from Siluda."
When they heard Hilda's name, both Angel and Laplace were a little surprised.
Hilda is the elder of the Crystal Eyes clan, Gleipnir's best friend, Rita's grandmother, and the only one willing to save Rita.
In order to save Lita, Siluda went to the Ghost in the Mirror alone, trying to find the mirror space where Tunita got the drawings of the spectacle ceremony.
As long as the spectacle ritual is overturned, the Power Tower can be saved, the tens of thousands of young people affected by the spectacle ritual can be saved, and the Jinmu clan's crumbling building can also be saved.
It can be said that Hilda was the only rebel in the Jingmu tribe.
After knowing that Siluda had gone to the Ghost in the Mirror, Gleipnir specifically asked Bloodbane to help search for her. However, Gleipnir didn't actually have much hope. After all, the Dark Mirror Territory was so vast.
Locating Hilda is not that easy.
But who would have known that in less than a day, news of Hilda would come from the Blood Calamity Body.
This naturally surprised Angel.
Angel: "Did you find Hilda?"
The phantom clone nodded: "To be precise, I haven't looked for Hilda yet; however, by some mistake, Hilda is actually at Grandma Longcrow's place."
Angel nodded in understanding. Blood Scourge found Granny Longcrow, which was actually equivalent to finding Hilda.
"This is indeed a good thing." Angel: "Gleipnir should be very happy."
The phantom clone shook his head: "Although I have not shared minds with Graipnir, I believe that she will not be happy now."
Angel: “Huh??”
Why are you unhappy?
The phantom clone did not speak, but stared at Laplace.
Angel turned to look at Laplace, but Laplace lowered his eyebrows and seemed to be communicating with someone.
Thinking about it, the phantom clone was afraid of disturbing Laplace, so that's why he didn't speak.
Two seconds later, Laplace opened her eyes, with a trace of consideration in her eyes: "I didn't expect such a development..."
Angel: "What's wrong?"
Laplace did not explain, but gestured to the phantom clone and said: "Let her continue talking, and you will know."
Angel glanced at Laplace and probably understood. He guessed that Laplace couldn't wait for the shadow clone to tell the story, so he asked Gleipnir in advance.
Judging from Laplace's emotion, something unexpected happened to Hilda.
You know, Laplace is well-informed, and even she lamented about it, which is enough to see that there must be something unexpected.
As expected, with the narration of the phantom clone, Angel finally understood why the phantom clone said, "Syluda's story is probably more interesting."
The story starts with Hilda going to the ghost in the mirror——
Siluda learned from her friend Narudo that the ghost in the mirror appeared in a mirror space that reflected unknown time and space. There was a lot of content about rituals in that mirror space.
Siluda immediately realized that this was the mirror space where Tunita received the miracle ceremony.
In order to destroy the "body seizing" ceremony, in order that the young people of the Crystal Eyes tribe would no longer be shrouded in shadow in the future, and also for the sake of the Tower of Power... Hiluda went to the dark mirror realm that was full of dangers without hesitation.
She's very lucky.
The Dark Mirror Realm was full of dangers, but she was lucky enough to overcome it. Even if she encountered a fatal disaster, she still managed to escape.
Even in a rule disaster where she was destined to die, she was lucky enough to meet Granny Longcrow, who was studying the power of rules.
He was rescued by Granny Longcrow.
After recuperating at Grandma Longcrow's house for a period of time, she decided to hit the road again.
Although Granny Longcrow dissuaded her many times, for the sake of the future of Crystal City, in order to get rid of the false bubble and let the Crystal Eyes return to normal life, Siluda still insisted on going on the road.
Granny Dragoncrow had no choice but to give Siluda a dragon scale so that she could contact him when she was in danger.
Luck may really be on Hilda's side.
She really reached her goal, which was the mirror space that contained a lot of ritual content.
Based on the investigation, Hilda determined that Narudo's information was correct, and there were indeed many ritual books in it.
However, every book and treasure in this mirror space cannot be taken for free.
You have to go through some rules to get it.
During the period when Siluda lived with Grandma Longcrow, she also had a certain understanding of the power of ghost rules and the disasters of rules. Under the blessing of the goddess of luck, she actually broke through a rules mechanism and obtained a book.
Ritual books, and a special mirror-shaped sacrifice.
After getting the treasure, Hilda couldn't help but start researching it.
Because of this research, Siluda finally encountered the biggest disaster after entering the ghost in the mirror.
Hilda first studied the mirror-shaped sacrifice, because the ritual books were too thick and difficult to understand in a short time. Simply check what kind of ceremony this sacrifice was used in?
If it can be used in spectacle rituals, then it may become the core thing that subverts the spectacle of Crystal City.
While Hilda was studying the sacrifice, the mirror-shaped sacrifice suddenly lit up.
Immediately afterwards, the mirror showed a flat image.
What is shown in the image is a classical spire castle located in a dark forest.
The castle looked a bit dilapidated, with a black wind lingering around it, dark clouds hovering overhead, and even groups of bats flying.
It's like a vampire castle in a fairy tale, both evil and terrifying.
But because it is a flat image and has a cartoon style, the castle does not look too unacceptable.
When Hilda was wondering what this image was, a small figure suddenly appeared in the center of the screen.
This is a crystal stick figure, very cartoony.
At first, Siluda didn't understand what the crystal man was about, until she discovered that the stick man was holding a thick-shell book, and the name on the thick-shell book was "Secret Book of Divine Hair Gift Ceremony".
Only then did Hilda realize that this crystal stick figure seemed to be herself?
Because, she was holding the "Secret Book of Divine Hair Gift Ceremony" in her hand at this time, which was exactly the ritual book she had obtained.
After confirming that the villain in the flat image was herself, Hiluda discovered something wonderful.
She can control the movement of the stick figure by sliding her fingers across the surface.
For example, if she wants to move forward, she only needs to stroke up, and the stickman will move forward. If she strokes downward, the stickman will turn around and move back.
When Hilda became familiar with the operation of the crystal stick figure, something even stranger happened.
When she controlled the stick figure and walked to the roadside, a cursor appeared. Following the cursor, Hiluda saw a dim herb.
Hiluda didn't know why this herb attracted the cursor, so she controlled the crystal stickman to come to the herb, and then she saw the herb glowing.
Tap the screen lightly with your finger.
The medicinal herbs in the picture disappeared, but there was an identical medicinal herb in her hand.
From a two-dimensional plane to a three-dimensional world.
Because the herbs in the picture are in a cartoon style, it is difficult to distinguish the specific types, but the herbs in her hands are real. Based on Siluda's identification, it is confirmed that this is a special herb that can be used in potions and rituals.
Later, Hiluda discovered stone sacrifices, rope totems, and colorful paints in the forest.
Moreover, these are all ritual-related materials.
Hilda was shocked at that time.
Could it be that this mirror actually contains a large number of ritual sacrifices and ritual materials?
The way to obtain it is to control the villain in the mirror to collect or mine from the screen.
Thinking of this, Hiluda couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Because if you want to completely overturn the spectacle ritual of Crystal City, you need not only ritual knowledge, but also a lot of ritual materials, including those that are extremely rare.
And if these materials can be obtained from this mirror, she will be able to save the power tower more quickly and save thousands of young people from the Jingmu tribe!
Siluda continued to search with a feeling of apprehension.
She unearthed more ritualistic materials one by one, and she even discovered a rare ritualistic sacrifice - a copper tree corpse coffin in a forest cemetery.
A ritual sacrifice that is neither gold nor wood, but possesses the properties of both metal and wood.
This is a very, very rare sacrifice. Even in the wizarding world where ritual science is prevalent, it is rare to encounter such an excellent sacrifice.
Hilda has now confirmed that this is a magical mirror that can continuously obtain ritual materials.
In the next period of time, Siluda was completely obsessed with the "liver" material.
But within a few days, she picked up all the luminous materials on the map in the forest, on the roadside, in the wooden houses in the forest, etc.
If you want to open a new map, you can only go to the classical spire castle along the forest path.
When she first came into contact with the mirror, Hiluda was still a little worried and did not go towards the castle; but now, after confirming that there were a large number of unclaimed sacrifices here, she finally set off towards the castle.
Sure enough, as soon as we arrived at the castle, a new map opened.
You can see from the floor plan of the castle that there are dozens of rooms here, such as maid's room, kitchen, hall, main hall, guest bedroom, dressing room, bathroom...etc.
Most of the rooms have luminous objects.
However, what is different from before is that there are many villains in the castle.
These villains, like Hilda, are cartoon characters and wear cartoon clothes.
For example, there was a cartoon butler in a tuxedo nearby. He was walking towards Siluda, and the words "Welcome to the Knight's Castle" floated above his head.
The words that floated out were common human scripts, which were learned by most creatures in the Mirror Realm, and Siluda naturally recognized them.
"What is the Knight's Castle?" Siluda murmured in reality.
Miraculously, the crystal stick figure in the mirror also floated out a row of identical words: "What is the Knight's Castle?"
The little butler in a tuxedo floated out new text: "The Knight's Castle is the territory of the great Ghost Rider."
Siluda was stunned, could it be possible to communicate like this?
When Siluda was surprised, the tuxedo butler said again: "Foreign guest, the great Ghost Rider has sensed your arrival and hopes to meet you."
After the words fell, in a study room in the castle plan, a man wearing black knight armor radiated light.
As if to remind Hilda, this is the owner of the Knight's Castle, the Ghost Rider.
Tuxedo Butler: "Outside guests, do you want to meet the Ghost Rider first, or take a stroll in the castle first?"
Siluda ignored the tuxedo butler's inquiry, but wanted to know more information.
For example, who are you? Who created this place? Why can we communicate? Do you really exist?
However, no matter how Siluda asked, the tuxedo butler did not answer, but kept saying the same sentence: "Foreign guest, do you want to see the Ghost Rider first, or take a stroll in the castle first?
?」
Hilda: "Is it some kind of mechanical setting? Do I have to make a choice?"
Siluda thought for a while and decided not to reply, but to do some tests first.
She first turned around and left the castle to see if she could return to the forest.
Can.
Then she entered the castle again, and the butler came forward again and said almost exactly the same words as before.
Even if Hilda didn't ask "What is the Knight's Castle?" this time.
The butler still introduced the situation of the Knight's Castle.
Then, Hilda was asked to choose whether to see Lord Ghost Rider or not.
This time, Siluda still didn't reply, but walked directly around the housekeeper and walked inside.
The housekeeper did not stop him, but went back to the side. From the look of him, he seemed to be wiping the furniture in the hall.
Siluda walked around the hall and got a rope contaminated with the evil spirit's breath, a flower transformed by the evil spirit's breath, and a water glass contaminated with the strong evil spirit's breath.
These can be used as ritual sacrifices.
Moreover, this series of "evil spirit breath" seems to indicate the traces of the Ghost Rider's life here.
After searching the hall, Siluda now faced a choice.
Should we go to Ghost Rider's study, or should we search other rooms first?
