Chapter 2974 Honorary Elder

 The periphery of the Deep Cave.

 In a corner of the dark void, a fist-sized fluorite was suspended, emitting a cold light source.

However, the range that the light source can cover is only about two or three meters. Beyond that, all the light is swallowed up by the unknown darkness.

"The light was not suppressed by the darkness, but disappeared directly, as if the space was distorted." Angel looked into the deep darkness: "But I didn't feel the energy fluctuations in the space... It's really strange."

Laplace: "This is the nature of the Deep Cave. It will swallow up all light. As for the spatial fluctuations you mentioned, there are actually some, but they are in the Deep Cave, not outside the Deep Cave. .”

Angor: "What is it like inside the deep cave?"

Angel still remembered that Laplace said that she had entered the deep cave. But Laplace didn't say much about the specific situation inside.

Laplace shook his head: "It's hard for me to describe it. It's actually dark inside, but the darkness there is different from the darkness outside. It gives me the feeling that it's not like being in the current space, but in a more distant place." .”

"Anyway, it's not a ghost. At least, I didn't encounter any danger inside."

Angor murmured in a low voice: "A deep cave without danger?"

 Is it really not dangerous?

Perhaps it’s just that Laplace feels that there is no danger...

Angor doesn’t quite believe that a “phenomenon” with such a wide range of influence is not dangerous at all and is just for absorbing light sources. Moreover, the deep cave is outside the psychological boundary of the creature in the mirror. It is usually dark here and there is no light source to absorb.

 Laplace: "Are you interested in the deep cave?"

Angor shook his head. He was not very interested, but just a little curious about the unknown.

“I was just wondering if you didn’t feel dangerous when you were in the Deep Cave, maybe because you didn’t see the danger.”

 Laplace recalled Angel's words in a low voice: "Didn't you 'see' the danger?"

Angor nodded: "After all, you can't see anything in the dark. You feel there is no danger, it's just that the darkness blinds you."

Laplace pondered for a moment: "What you said is quite special. Speaking of which, in the deep cave, there is indeed no way to create a light source in any way. It is like there is a force that prevents the 'light' from being here. Birth.”

　　After a pause: "If you go by your guess, the darkness may not only blind my eyes, it may also protect me from being 'seen' by danger."

"But no one can tell what the truth is. Maybe someone will be willing to solve this mystery in the future, but it probably won't be me... Just like you, I'm not very interested in the deep cave. . As long as it stays here quietly and does not move, just treat it as a rare phenomenon."

Angor nodded and did not continue to talk about the deep cave.

If this deep cave were in the wizarding world, there would definitely be wizards studying it, but if it were in the Mirror Realm, it is estimated that no one would solve the mystery in a short time. After all, the deep cave is outside the psychological boundary, and few creatures in the mirror are willing to come here.

"Speaking of which, Gleipnir and the Ancient Tooth Fairy should be arriving soon, right?" Angel looked at Laplace.

It has been several minutes since they came out of the heart space. According to Gleipnir's speed, they should be almost there.

Laplace nodded: "It's very close, we should be there soon... By the way, it's okay for us to call him the Ancient Tooth Fairy in private, but it's better to change the name in front of us."

Angor made a clear gesture: "Mirror Sea Scholar."

Laplace didn’t say much. She believed that Angel had his own sense of proportion.

 Half a minute later, Angel vaguely felt faint spatial fluctuations around him. As the spatial fluctuations slowly deepened, a floating light flickered.

 A door similar to a mirror, opened from the void.

This was the corridor in the mirror, and in the corridor, Angel saw a rickety Gleipnir on crutches, and an ancient tooth fairy about the size of a newborn baby.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little late." Gleipnir spoke slowly, and finally looked at Angel and said again: "I'm really sorry."

Angor glanced at Gleipnir and understood exactly why she said sorry twice. However, Angel did not answer. He just nodded lightly and turned to look at the Ancient Tooth Fairy beside him.

 This is an old, wrinkled ancient... Jinghai scholar.

It is different from those seen before at the Tooth Fairy Ancient Ruins Branch. It has no wings and is very heavily dressed. The robe is a scholar's uniform that looks "dazzling". It has an equally gorgeous handle in its hand. Scepter.

It has a sharp fang on its head. At this time, the fang is decorated with various gorgeous ornaments. It no longer looks like a tooth cap, but a pointed magic hat.

 At least, from the appearance point of view, this Jinghai scholar is very stylish.

On the other side, the Mirror Sea scholar seemed to know Laplace and bowed respectfully to her. He did not dare to look at her more and turned his attention to Angel.

“It’s actually a human being?” An old voice came from the Mirror Sea scholar’s ​​mouth: “How long ago was the last time you saw a human being in the Mirror Realm?”

 The eyes of the Mirror Sea scholar, which were originally full of wisdom, turned into two question marks in a short period of time.

 After a full ten seconds, it said hesitantly: "It should have been three days ago."

 Angel: “…”

From the tone of the Jinghai scholar, it seems that you have not seen humans for decades or centuries. But you saw humans three days ago and now you have forgotten them?

Angor couldn't help but look at Laplace and asked with his eyes: Can this guy do it?

 Laplace directly transmitted the message in front of the Mirror Sea scholars: "It should be considered reliable. Probably because he has lived for too long, his memory is a bit confused."

Angor also sent a message: "Live too long?"

Laplace nodded: "It's called Langya Flute Bone. It was the former great elder of the Tooth Fairy Ancient Ruins. After retiring thousands of years ago, he became an honorary elder. I don't know how big it is, but I know it." He is one of the first scholars of the Tooth Fairy Ancient Ruins and a survivor of the Hollow Tooth Fairy’s spread.”

The spread of the Hollow Tooth Fairy was originally caused by a major mistake made by the Tooth Fairy when studying the Sea of ​​Empty Mirrors, which caused some of the Tooth Fairies to fall into the Sea of ​​Empty Mirrors and become Hollow Tooth Fairies.

The reason why it became a "spread" event is because many tooth fairies, in order to save the tooth fairies who fell into the sea of ​​empty mirrors, overestimated their ability and fell into the sea of ​​empty mirrors.

 To put it bluntly, the Calabash Boys save Grandpa and give them away one by one.

This incident is also one of the sources of division among the Tooth Fairy.

At that time, most of the Tooth Fairies believed that the ancient ruins were too dangerous and that studying the Sea of ​​Empty Mirrors would outweigh the gains and losses. So, under the leadership of some elders, they founded what became the Tooth Fairy Castle, which is now the Tooth Fairy Paradise.

However, there are still a few scholars who stayed in the Tooth Fairy Ancient Ruins and continued to study the Sea of ​​Empty Mirrors. At that time, the Tooth Fairy Ancient Market and the Tooth Fairy Paradise could still maintain harmony, but the Tooth Fairy Ancient Market had been using the resources of the Tooth Fairy Paradise with little return. This made the Tooth Fairy in the Tooth Fairy Castle feel that they were being taken advantage of, and they all Very unhappy.

This also laid the fuse for the real division of the Tooth Fairy later.

 The Queen’s accession to the throne ignited this fuse.

After the Tooth Fairy Queen came to the throne, she cut off the resources of the Tooth Fairy Ancient Ruins, which also completely divided the Tooth Fairy and the Mirror Sea Scholars.

The Tooth Fairy in Tooth Fairy Paradise thought that the Mirror Sea Scholars who had no resources would give in, but they didn’t. After a long period of being isolated and helpless, the Mirror Sea Scholars turned over because of the method of finding objects.

 Today, they only call themselves Mirror Sea Scholars, completely different from the Tooth Fairy. Even though, they are actually a race of tooth fairies.

And this wolf tooth and flute bone has experienced the spread of the Hollow Tooth Fairy, which means that it is an ancient tooth fairy that has survived since the split of the ancient tooth fairy ruins.

  means that the other person has lived for at least three thousand years.

 No wonder Laplace said that it lived for a long time.

For the Tooth Fairy, a non-long-lived race, Wolf Fang and Flute Bone are probably the oldest generation of Tooth Fairy.

Logically speaking, such an ancient Mirror Sea scholar would never leave the Tooth Fairy Ancient Ruins... The method of finding objects does not require such a highly respected elder.

 There must be another reason why the wolf teeth and flute bones came.

Angor sent a message: "Did Gleipnir invite it here?"

 Laplace pondered for a moment and said, "Yes, she didn't tell me before that it was Wolf Fang and Flute Bone."

Hearing this, Angel finally understood. Graipnir obviously knew that it was not a friendly thing for her to let Laplace test Angel. In order to bridge the possible cracks, wolf fangs and flute bones were brought.

 Because she knew very well that Angel deliberately wanted to establish a good relationship with the Tooth Fairy, and Langya Flute Bone was the most important honorary elder in the Tooth Fairy Ancient Ruins. His words could definitely influence the Tooth Fairy Ancient Ruins.

Gleipnir is a good calculationr and uses both strategies at the same time.

However, can Gleipnir’s approach bridge the cracks?

Angor never felt that there was any rift between himself and Laplace. As for Gleipnir... that was another story.

 …

"Have you seen humans three days ago?" Angel touched his chin: "It seems that there are quite a lot of humans in the Sun Mirror Region."

Lang Ya. Flute Bone smiled: "That's not true. One of my descendants has counted the number of human beings known so far. I remember that it was probably..."

 The wise eyes once again raised question marks.

 A few seconds later, Lang Ya and Flute Bone coughed twice: "Probably a group of people."

 Angel: “…”

 So, is this a joke, or is it serious?

Angor looked at the wolf fang and flute bone carefully, and finally confirmed that it was serious.

 Seriously...forget.

Perhaps seeing Angel's speechless expression, Lang Ya and Flute Bone seemed to have guessed something, and laughed: "My memory used to be very good, but then I accidentally fell into the Sea of ​​Empty Mirrors, and my memory deteriorated."

Grapnir said calmly: "The Sea of ​​Empty Mirrors will only erase memories. Even if you become the Hollow Tooth Fairy, at most the past memories will be gone, and it will not make the memory worse."

 Lang Ya. Flute Bone: "Is that so? Why don't I remember?"

 wolf fangs. Flute Bone scratched the fangs on his head with an innocent expression.

"Let's get back to the topic." Angel pinched his eyebrows, his expression a little speechless.

Wolf Fang. Flute Bone: "Yes, yes, let's get down to business first. After all, you can't delay searching for something. I remember Gleipnir told me that what we are looking for is another red tumbler, right? I brought the same style. The blue tumbler is perfect for finding objects..."

Gleipnir coughed and interrupted the words of Wolf Fang and Flute Bone: "It's not a tumbler, I'm talking about the lid inlaid with sapphires and rubies."

 Langya.Flute Bone looked at Gleipnir in shock: "I, did I remember it wrong?"

Angor looked at Laplace. This time he used voice transmission directly and asked again: "Is he really reliable?"

Looking at his forgetful look, Angel really doubted whether the wolf teeth and flute bones could be used to find objects. Even if you can find something, will you forget what you want to do halfway through?

Laplace had answered with "It should be reliable" before. This time she didn't say that, but said hesitantly: "How about, let's try it first."

Angor sighed, took out the gem cover and handed it to Langya and the flute bone.

After Langya. Flute Bone took the cover, he looked at it for a moment, and then stretched out. Just when Angel thought that Langya Flute Bone was about to leave, it turned to look at Angel: "By the way, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is Longya Qin."

Angor also introduced himself with a confused expression, but his heart was full of suspicion... Isn't his name Langya Flute Bone?

Grapnir said softly at this time: "Longya Qin is your daughter, your name is Langya Flute Bone."

Lang Ya. Flute Bone was stunned for a moment, as if he thought of something: "Yes, yes, my name is Lang Ya. Flute Bone, and my daughter's name is Long Ya. Qin. Speaking of my daughter, she is a good child. I remember..."

Before Lang Ya and Flute Bone could sink into memories, Angel interrupted: "Let's look for things first. We'll talk about other things later."

 Lang Ya. Flute Bone: "Alright. By the way, what are we looking for?"

 Angel: “…”

 …

Gleipnir took the wolf fangs and flute bones to look for things, while Angel and Laplace stayed where they were.

 After the air was silent for a moment, Laplace whispered: "If you don't find it..."

Angor waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, I can already foresee such a result."

Laplace said apologetically: "I didn't expect Gleipnir to bring wolf fangs and flute bones."

Angor had already figured this out, but he didn’t pay too much attention to it. He was even in the mood to joke: “So, Ms. Laplace still thinks that Graipnir and you are the same person?”

This time, Laplace did not give a decisive answer like before. Instead, he hesitated for a moment and then said: "She is me, but she is not me."

Angor showed an expression like "You finally admitted it."

 Laplace: "Temporal body represents oneself at different times."

Angel knows this. This is the creature in the mirror's understanding of the time body.

 Laplace: "However, I made some changes. She is both my current body and...my other possibility."
