Chapter 353: Mirror of Fantasy
"Thank you very much for your willingness to help me, lovely Miss Vivian."
Looking at the reluctant player girl, Avis smiled and gazed into her eyes which were now a mixture of gold and purple, and gave her a very formal noble salute to express his gratitude.
Staring at the boy's eyes as deep as the night sky, the fireflies in the summer night suddenly brightened up. Even though I have seen it many times, I can never get enough of the boy's charming smile.
In fact, since the release of "Mystery Era", there have been private customization of in-game character posters, figures and other peripherals offline.
As long as you provide in-game screenshots and videos, you can create a finished product.
There are even some people who have compiled a list of the most popular game characters in the game forum, which is divided into three specific lists based on gender: male/female/unlimited.
Due to his background as the son of a duke and his high charm, Avis ranked 26th on the list based on his resume and a screenshot of his profile published by the White Light Club. This is based on the fact that he is currently too difficult to contact.
As a person who loves looks, Xia Ye Yinghuo also customized posters and figures of his own 'Novice Guide NPC'.
However, no matter how detailed the model is, it is not as exquisite as the "NPC" in the game.
Ah! I really want to feel the touch of a real person! It would be perfect if there was no anti-harmony system! In all kinds of random thoughts, the girl had unknowingly forgotten the slight unhappiness caused by Avis's forced mission.
"So, I wonder how Miss Rona is doing lately?"
Seeing that his tool had regained his spirits, Avis smiled and changed the subject.
"Rona, she said she's very grateful for your help, but there are too many strangers here, so she doesn't want to come out."
Hearing Avis's question, Xia Ye Yinghuo conveyed Rona's words.
"My mentor made me a talisman that will prevent those bad guys from finding Rona."
As she spoke, the player girl showed off a magic amulet pinned to her collar.
It was a mysterious artifact specially made for her by her mentor, the Mystic Scholar Sai Starseeker.
When worn, it can completely cover up the strange aura of Rona attached to her, preventing her from being used as a moving experimental material as before.
"By the way, Anvis, there is one more thing!"
As he spoke, Xia Ye Yinghuo suddenly remembered something.
"Rona just told me that there is something wrong with this black clock, and it is becoming more and more wrong! Maybe we should leave quickly..."
When she said the last sentence, the girl lowered her voice and glanced at Anvis secretly, fearing that he would be dissatisfied with her suggestion.
After playing the game for a long time, she would always unconsciously put herself into the identity of this world, so she felt a little restrained when facing Avis.
Something's wrong with the clock?
"Are you sure, Miss Vivian?"
After a quick glance at Claire, Avis's expression turned serious.
Both of them knew Rona's true identity as a person with strange activities.
Currently, the magic world doesn't know much about moving monsters, but one thing is certain: moving monsters can sense things that ordinary spellcasters cannot perceive.
It will make Rona feel something is wrong...
"Really, Avis... Oh, Rona said, it seems like something is about to come out!!"
The player girl nodded, paused, and then her tone suddenly became a little panicked.
Upon hearing this, their first instinctive reaction was to quickly jump away from the altar.
When Anvis left, he did not forget to take the girl, who was standing there motionless, with him to prevent her from dying suddenly from an accident.
As the two of them jumped, several others, including Ryan, seemed to have noticed something and jumped up at the same time as them.
Just as everyone left the altar, a turbid rainbow color suddenly overflowed from the bell.
The colors were like an oil film flashing with a strange colorful dirty light in the sun, or like paint buckets of various colors being overturned and splashed together in a mess.
The few other students who still stayed on the altar also realized something was wrong, but at this moment, it was too late -
A student wanted to escape with a look of horror on his face, but found that his body was suddenly out of control and he could only watch as the strange color gradually climbed up his body.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, his entire body melted into a ball of even richer color and merged into the river formed by the seven colors.
Anvis remembered that this student was one of Ryan's two male companions.
This gorgeous and terrifying scene was repeating itself on the altar. Many students who were unable to escape were transformed into rich colored fluids and merged into the altar.
When the color spread throughout the altar, it seemed to trigger some mechanism and stopped spreading further.
Then, all the colors began to slowly shrink towards the center and gradually gathered at the opening at the bottom of the clock, forming a circular colorful mirror.
The moment the mirror was formed, Ryan, who was originally under the altar, suddenly moved, rushed towards the mirror quickly, and then his whole body was immersed in it.
Seeing this scene, the others were surprised, but also hesitant as to whether to rush in as well.
Of course, Avis, who had been paying attention to him, did not hesitate. As the child of destiny related to this relic, Ryan must have felt something.
Avis could now vaguely sense a familiar breath coming from behind the mirror.
That is the breath of the dream world——
"Claire, Vivian, I'm going to explore what's inside that colorful mirror. If you don't want to go, you can wait outside."
"No, Anvis, I think there should be some interesting discoveries inside. For explorers, an opportunity to explore such ruins is definitely not to be missed."
Claire shook her head and didn't intend to stay outside for fear of danger.
"What about Vivian, would you like to go with me?"
Nodding, Avis glanced at a certain player girl out of the corner of his eye.
"I don't... no, of course... I'd love to go with you."
Being stared at by Avis, the extremely fearful girl spoke somewhat against her will, with a look of happiness written all over her face.
"In that case, Senior Claire, can you do me a favor?"
As he spoke, Avis took off a space ring from his hand and handed it to Claire.
“Since the one here is not my real body, I am not sure whether the clone can pass through the mirror normally.
If you can successfully enter the exploration, then give me this ring when you are inside. If you completely lose connection, then you can use the supplies inside by yourself. "
"Okay, Avis."
Claire nodded, took the ring and didn't refuse.
Boom boom boom——
At this moment, the entire cave hall suddenly shook without warning.
"It seems to be coming from the outside world... Let's go in together!"
Feeling the vibration of the hall with some doubt, the three of them no longer hesitated and rushed into the mirror together like Ryan before.
When the three figures disappeared, the color of the mirror faded visibly to the naked eye.
This situation startled the remaining students in the cave hall, and they immediately realized the key: the number of people who can pass through the mirror is limited!
Some students, including Roche and others, immediately made up their minds and rushed in.
As everyone entered, the color of the mirror quickly faded and eventually disappeared completely.
