Immediately, the light and shadows within the ancient mirror shifted dramatically once more, and bizarre scenes flashed by like a revolving lantern. The terrifying sound reached a crescendo, as if countless wronged souls were crying out simultaneously, making the very soul tremble. Then, all was suddenly still, like the calm after a storm. The ancient mirror regained its composure, the dazzling light gradually dissipated, and the woman's figure vanished without a trace, as if she had never appeared. However, a faint black mist lingered on the mirror, slowly rising, leaving a lingering sense of fear.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their tense nerves finally relaxed, and they collapsed on the ground. Their bodies became weak due to the tension and fatigue just now, and their clothes were soaked with sweat. However, before they had time to rejoice, the ancient mirror shone again, but this time the light was no longer strange, but a soft white. In the light, a blurry picture appeared. The picture seemed to be an ancient scene with a magnificent palace where a mysterious ceremony was being held. The walls of the palace were engraved with strange runes, flickering with faint light, as if telling an ancient story. In the center of the palace stood a huge stone platform, on which burned green flames, emitting a strange aura. A group of people in strange costumes surrounded the stone platform, chanting something. Their faces were blurry, but a mysterious and solemn atmosphere could be felt.
Lin Yu stood up and looked at the picture in the ancient mirror, his heart full of doubts and curiosity: "It seems that there is a bigger secret hidden behind this ancient mirror, and this picture may be the key clue. But what kind of ritual is this? What does it have to do with the woman just now?" Lin Yu frowned, his eyes full of thought, trying to find some clues from the picture.
Professor Li also stood up, walked to Lin Yu, stared at the screen and observed carefully: "Yes, this may very well be the key to unlocking the whole mystery. Judging from the form of these runes and rituals, this seems to be an ancient summoning or sealing ritual. But the specific meaning and purpose still need further study." Professor Li pushed his glasses, his eyes flashing with wisdom, his brain had begun to work rapidly, thinking about various possibilities.
Old Chen and Xiao Zhao also stood up and gathered around. Old Chen looked at the ancient mirror and said with lingering fear: "This ancient mirror is really weird, but this time I finally solved the crisis temporarily. But I don't know what I will encounter next. I feel scared just thinking about it." Old Chen patted his chest, a trace of fear still lingering on his face.
Xiao Zhao stared at the screen curiously: "Where is the scene in this picture? What kind of ceremony are they holding? It feels so mysterious. Could it be related to those missing people?" Xiao Zhao's eyes were full of curiosity and worry. He thought of the rumors about missing persons he had heard during the investigation, and felt that all of this was inextricably linked.
Filled with questions, the four continue to stare at the image in the ancient mirror. They know this is only the first step toward uncovering the truth; more mysteries await. This mysterious mirror may lead them into an even more bizarre and dangerous supernatural world. Fearing the unknown yet driven by a relentless pursuit of truth, they are determined to forge ahead, no matter what lies ahead, to uncover the secrets hidden within.
Lin Yu took a deep breath, looked at his teammates and said firmly: "No matter what is hidden behind this, since we have come this far, we must get to the bottom of it. Everyone, take a break and adjust your state. The road ahead may be more difficult." Lin Yu's eyes revealed perseverance and determination. He knew that as the captain, he must give his teammates confidence and strength.
The teammates nodded in agreement. In this brief moment of peace, they diligently recovered their physical and mental strength. However, everyone knew in their hearts that this battle against the supernatural had only just begun, and the challenges they faced might be far beyond their imagination. But as members of Bureau 749, they shouldered the mission of uncovering the mysteries and safeguarding world peace. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles lay ahead, they would not retreat.
After a short rest, Professor Li once again took out various instruments and thoroughly scanned the ancient mirror, attempting to extract more information from the image. Old Chen carefully checked his talismans and equipment to ensure he had enough for the upcoming operation. Although Xiao Zhao was still a little scared, seeing his teammates' dedication and determination, he also gathered his courage and helped to organize the items. Lin Yu searched the room, trying to find other clues related to the ancient mirror and the image.
Suddenly, Lin Yu discovered a tattered ancient book in the corner of the room. The pages were yellowed, the edges frayed, as if it had endured countless years. Lin Yu carefully picked up the book and gently flipped it open, discovering some strange text and images. He excitedly called out, "Everyone, come over here and take a look. Maybe we can find more clues." His teammates immediately gathered around him.
Professor Li took the ancient book and carefully examined the words and patterns on it, frowning: "These words and patterns are very old, and seem to have some connection with the symbols on the ancient mirror. I need some time to decipher them." As Professor Li spoke, he took out a magnifying glass and carefully studied the details on the ancient book.
At this moment, the room was filled with a tense and expectant atmosphere. Everyone was waiting for Professor Li's interpretation, hoping to find the key clues to solve the mystery and uncover the shocking secrets hidden behind the ancient mirror. However, what they didn't know was that as they gradually approached the truth, a greater danger might be quietly approaching in the darkness...
