Chapter 3639: Ghostly Stone
Chapter 3638: Ghostly Stone
The mirror-holding banshee has no vocal organs, or rather, most mirror ghosts have no vocal organs.
Because they are born crazy, there is no need to communicate, so naturally there is no need for vocal organs.
And the mirror-holding banshee in front of him obviously has no vocal organs either. However, she took a different approach and slightly changed the "banshee's howl" to become "mirror language".
"Ghostly Stone? Do you mean the forbidden stone?" Napoli subconsciously said, and after he finished speaking, he found that the mirror-holding banshee's eyes were full of confusion. Then he suddenly realized that "forbidden stone" was the name he gave himself, and it was normal for the mirror-holding banshee to be confused.
He quickly changed his words and said, "Are you talking about the black stone that has been releasing the breath of ghosts?"
"Yes." The mirror-holding banshee nodded, and the red lips in the mirror opened slightly: "I remember that before I lost my mind, she was hung on my chest by me. Why is it gone now? Did you take it away?"
The mirror-holding banshee said to the end, and a cold knife had floated in her eyes.
In her eyes, everyone looked like thieves.
Hearing the words of the Mirror Banshee, Napoli and Elder Konta looked at each other and immediately understood that the Mirror Banshee had no memory of her madness.
She was completely unaware of the harm she almost caused.
She now saw the suspicion in everyone's eyes, not only treating them as thieves, but also being on guard... After all, there was no one around her after she went crazy before, and no one would lock her in an ice coffin.
After a while of looking at each other, Napoli sighed and broke the silence: "Let me explain."
The Mirror Banshee nodded silently.
Among the people present, the only one she trusted a little was Napoli. Because he invited her, and he was the one who believed most that he could complete the refining of the embryo.
Napoli: "This is what happened... Not long ago, a disaster almost occurred in this area, and the source of the disaster was the piece of ghost stone you mentioned..."
Napoli did not hide the situation and told the Mirror Banshee exactly what happened.
A few minutes later.
"... This is why you didn't see the ghost stone when you woke up, because it has been sent away from the embryo factory by us. If it continues to stay here, it will become a huge hidden danger."
After listening to Napoli's story, the doubt in the mirror-holding banshee's eyes slowly faded, and she finally understood why she woke up in the ice coffin that separated the space.
Because the workshop was filled with the breath of ghosts, in order to prevent her from continuing to go crazy, Elder Kongta could only isolate her in this sealed space.
After learning the truth, the mirror-holding banshee was silent for a long time.
After a long time, she controlled the red lips in the mirror and slowly said: "... Let me out, I will go to clean up the ghost breath outside."
Looking at the mirror-holding banshee whose eyes have regained clarity, Napoli thought about it and nodded to Elder Kongta.
Elder Kongta did not tear down Napoli's stage at this time, but just snorted coldly, then quickly closed his eyes and made several complicated handprints to this pure white space.
At the moment the handprint ended, the pure white space slowly dissipated like a faded soap bubble.
With the disappearance of the pure white space, everyone fell into the cooling pool outside.
Fortunately, Angel's illusion nodes were still laid on the surface of the cooling pool, without causing any ripples, and everyone successfully stepped on the platform formed by the true illusion technique.
After returning to the shore, the mirror-holding banshee looked into the cooling pool and confirmed that the embryo inside was not affected, and then walked towards the corridor outside.
Everyone followed.
In the magma lake area, there is very little ghost breath here, almost all of which are evaporated by the high temperature.
The mirror-holding banshee did not stop all the way, crossed the magma lake, and went straight to the platform on the surface of the workshop.
When climbing the stairs and coming to the outermost space of the entire workshop, the mirror-holding banshee looked at the thick white fog outside, and her expression was obviously a little stiff.
She was a little skeptical about Napoli's story before.
Because the ghost stone had not been rampant in her hands before.
But now, seeing the scene in front of her, she had to believe it.
The breath of the ghost cave was so thick that it condensed into fog. The visibility was less than a hand's length. It was enough to know how huge and heavy the breath released from the ghost cave stone was not long ago.
If it continues to be released, it may really form a ghost cave disaster as Napoli said.
"...I'm sorry."
The mirror-holding banshee walked in front and stood at the stairs. A low and slow voice came from the front.
"Ah?" Napoli was stunned for a moment: "You were just saying..."
Did he hear it wrong? Why did he seem to hear the apology of the mirror-holding banshee? The mirror-holding banshee would also apologize? !
The mirror-holding banshee did not continue to say anything, but controlled the red lips in the mirror and said lightly: "It's nothing, I will deal with the fog of the ghost cave here. You... wait here for a while, I'll be back soon."
After speaking, the mirror-holding banshee stepped directly into the thick fog.
And as she entered, the surrounding thick fog began to boil like boiling water.
The thick fog turned into long and thin tornadoes, like tentacles, and was absorbed into the mirror by the mirror-holding banshee.
Wherever she walked, the mirror swallowed her.
The thick fog was like a moth flying into a flame, all drilling into the mirror she held.
She only walked forward 300 meters and came to the center of the surface. The thick fog from all directions attacked her. She was like the center of a vortex, absorbing the surrounding thick fog without limit and in large quantities.
The movement was so loud that even Napoli was a little frightened: "If she absorbs it like this, she won't be affected again and lose her mind, right?"
Napoli was just talking to himself, not thinking that anyone would know the answer.
However... someone actually answered.
It was Laplace who spoke. She was also looking at the mirror-wielding witch, but compared to the worries of Napoli and Elder Konta, her eyes were very calm.
"She won't lose her mind just yet."
Napoli looked at Laplace suspiciously.
Laplace said lightly: "It is not her body that absorbs the ghostly aura, but the phantom body of the succubus in the mirror."
In other words, as long as she does not inhale the ghostly aura into her body from the female demon body, she will not be affected by the ghostly aura.
To put it bluntly, even if she does absorb those ghostly auras, as long as she does not exceed the limit, she does not have to worry about going crazy.
After all, she is a mirror ghost, and the ghostly aura itself is the food she relies on to survive.
Although Naples didn't know how Laplace made his judgment, he... he believed in Laplace. The mood that was a bit hanging at first slowly subsided at this time.
In about three minutes, the dense fog on the entire surface disappeared.
The return to clear vision allowed Napoli to clearly see the red lips in the mirror in the hand of the mirror-wielding banshee. After swallowing the last wisp of white mist, she stretched out her tongue and licked the area around her lips.
This once again proves that Laplace's judgment is correct.
After swallowing the thick fog, the mirror-wielding banshee stood still and did not move for a long time.
Everyone looked at each other and walked towards the mirror-holding banshee in tacit agreement. Soon, they came to the vicinity of the mirror-holding banshee.
At this time, they can see clearly.
A deep silk thread floated out from the rhombus mirror held by the mirror-holding banshee with both hands, and connected to the center of the mirror-holding banshee's eyebrows.
There is dark energy in the silk thread that is being transported into the body of the mirror-holding banshee.
This dark energy is the power of ghosts.
The mirror-wielding banshee is obviously replenishing the energy in her body through this method.
Not long after, the mirror-wielding banshee seemed to be "recharged", and then she slowly opened her eyes: "I'm... fine."
"Are you here to take me away?"
Although he was asking, his tone was very firm.
Napoli: "Huh? What?"
The mirror-wielding banshee controlled the red lips in the mirror: "I will leave, but please wait until I finish condensing the remaining embryos in the cooling pool."
Looking at the calm expression of the mirror-wielding banshee, Napoli seemed to understand something.
"We didn't rush to leave."
The mirror-wielding banshee raised her eyes and stared at Napoli with her deep pupils: "I made a mistake, aren't you going to punish me?"
"Not all mistakes require punishment."
Napoli: "Besides, judging from your appearance, this was not your intention, right?"
The mirror-wielding banshee pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly: "I didn't know that something could happen to the ghost stone. It has never been like this before in my hand."
Naples: "As expected."
Although the mirror-wielding banshee has always been expressionless, her emotions are not hidden and can be seen through her eyes.
Naples had discovered before that the mirror-wielding banshee showed an expression of disbelief when she heard that the ghost stone was the source of the disaster.
Therefore, he concluded that the mirror-wielding succubus was unaware of this.
And this is indeed the case.
"Nowadays, all the creatures in the White Mirror Realm are dancing on the steel rope, and they will fall into the abyss if they are not careful. The login device transformed from the embryonic device is our only hope now. I don't want to lose anything at this point in time. A general." Napoli paused and looked at the mirror-wielding succubus solemnly: "If you insist on asking for punishment, then my punishment is to use all my strength to refine the weapon embryo before we fall into the abyss. , try your best to seize the only way to survive."
Under Napoli's gaze, the mirror-wielding banshee slowly lowered her eyebrows, and after a few seconds, she nodded slightly.
"……good."
The mirror-wielding banshee's answer also made Napoli feel a little relieved. What he just said was true. Moreover, these words were not only addressed to the mirror-wielding banshee, but also to Elder Kongta.
Elder Kongta's previous performance clearly showed that he didn't like the mirror-wielding succubus.
But Naples still believes that on this disaster ferry that is about to sink, any power can be used. Even if this power comes from the ghost wind, as long as it is used well, it can make the ferry rise. Sail, sail towards the light.
Napoli used his peripheral vision to secretly glance at Elder Konta next to him.
Elder Kongta did not say a word and remained silent.
And this, in Naples' view, was enough.
There was no objection or sarcasm. The fact that Elder Konta, who was always outspoken and fond of scolding and scolding, could remain silent showed his attitude.
After Napoli put aside his worries, he became more eloquent in his speech: "Although the trouble caused by the Ghostly Stone is over for now, the questions that need to be clarified still need to be clarified."
"Let's sit down somewhere and talk."
The mirror-wielding banshee nodded, she also wanted to figure out what went wrong in this matter.
"There is no place to sit in my workshop. Let's go to the material warehouse. The boxes there can be used as seats."
When the mirror-wielding succubus said this, her voice was obviously much softer, and her eyes were filled with guilt.
Napoli was about to wave his hand, indicating that it didn't matter.
Angel was the first to say, "I'll do it."
After the words fell, Angel snapped his fingers, and the illusion nodes quickly floated out and condensed into an illusion hut.
The illusion hut looks like a mountain cabin with a courtyard of flowers and plants.
The reason why the "mountain" cabin was built on this flat square.
Because this style of cabin is more convenient for Angel to build, just like... the template in the game, just wave your hand.
Open the wooden door casually, and there is a spacious living room inside.
There are sofas, carpets, partitions, and fireplaces.
Angel has already built the cabin, so Naples naturally doesn't care, and everyone sits down.
After sitting down, the mirror-holding banshee looked at Angel and Laplace, and was very curious about their identities. ——Naples is already the person in charge of the embryo factory, why does it feel that the other party is the main one?
Naples also saw the doubts of the mirror-holding banshee. After asking Angel and Laplace for their consent with his eyes, he took the initiative to introduce their identities.
When she heard that Angel was the founder of the login device, the pupils of the mirror-holding banshee were obviously shaken.
She seemed to want to express something, but in the end she just whispered: "...Thank you."
If Angel hadn't shared the login device, perhaps the entire Bairi Mirror Domain wouldn't have seen even a glimmer of hope.
Even though she was a mirror ghost with a dull mood, she was afraid of eternal sleep.
Angel not only gave hope to the Bairi Mirror Domain, but also gave her hope.
The mirror-holding banshee was obviously thanking her for no reason, but everyone understood her hidden meaning. Elder Kongta looked at the expression of the mirror-holding banshee at this time, and he also appreciated it a little more.
Because he had the same thought the moment he learned of Angel's identity.
In addition to gratitude, it was still gratitude.
"You're welcome." Angel said readily, "Have you been to the Dream Crystal Plain?"
The Mirror Banshee shook her head: "Not yet... yet."
Angel: "You can go and have a look when you have time. Maybe you can prolong your sanity there."
The Mirror Banshee was stunned for a second, and nodded gently without thinking much: "Okay."
After a simple greeting, Angel looked at Napoli.
Napoli immediately understood and looked at the Mirror Banshee: "Can you tell me about the Ghost Cave Stone? Who gave it to you? Why did you bring it to the embryo factory?"
Napoli's question was obviously suspecting that the Ghost Cave Stone was deliberately brought into the embryo factory for sabotage.
The Mirror Banshee also understood what he meant. She shook her head: "The Ghost Cave Stone was not given to me by others. It has always been with me. I brought it from the Dark Mirror Domain."
The Mirror Banshee, or most of the mirror ghosts in the Daytime Mirror Domain, accidentally passed through the space node and drifted here from the Dark Mirror Domain.
The Mirror Banshee is the same.
And this piece of ghost stone was brought with her when she was in the Dark Mirror Realm.
She has been stranded in the White Mirror Realm for more than a hundred years, and this piece of ghost stone has been with her for a hundred years.
So, it was not given to her on purpose by someone, it was originally hers.
