Bai Xi never expected that the 'treasure' she received would be a mirror.
And this mirror.......
I don't know why, but it looks so familiar.
It seems I saw the exact same thing in Priest Shia's room in the border city.
Last time, because of Priestess Shia, she didn't pay much attention to this mirror, and she didn't expect it to appear here.
Immediately, Bai Xi became extremely vigilant.
Now it seems that if the Bone Lord is talking to something, it can only be the mirror in front of her, which means that its power must be so great that she can no longer control it.
It might even have an impact on her.
Because it was a mirror, it inevitably reflected her image. For some reason, the outer ring of the mirror was now completely lit up, illuminating her entire body.
If it weren't for the slightly strange appearance of this thing, Baixi would definitely have mistaken it for an LED full-length mirror.
Unfortunately, this is a magical world, which means this mirror must be a treasure.
And... she's a ghost now, so if this mirror were an ordinary mirror, theoretically it shouldn't reflect her image.
For some reason, after the mirror appeared, all the sounds outside the door disappeared.
There was absolutely no sound around me.
"this....."
Bai Xi frowned as she looked at herself in the mirror. She then noticed that her clothes were different, her expression was cold and indifferent, and even the color of her eyes was different.
"Golden eyes..."
She looked into those eyes, and for some reason, her feelings were complicated.
Maggie's eyes were pale gold, and she thought that after that body died, she would no longer see pale gold eyes on her own body.
And the clothes she was wearing weren't a saint's robe, nor were they the t-shirt she was originally wearing, but... a pure white dress.
It is called formal wear, but it is more solemn and sacred than formal wear.
If I had to put it in words... it's a bit like the Seven Gods' divine armor in the comics, carrying a sense of awe and reverence that is sacred and inviolable.
Moreover, for some reason, she felt that the dress looked strangely familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.
But upon closer reflection, Bai Xi realized she had indeed forgotten where she had seen it before.
For some reason, Bai Xi inexplicably remembered what Priest Shia had said: the self in the mirror was the real self.
so.....
Will she become like this in the future?
As such thoughts arose in Bai Xi's mind, she unconsciously, as if bewitched, reached out her hand and tried to touch the mirror in front of her.
The woman in the mirror naturally reached out her hand and made the same gesture as her.
Just before their fingertips touched, Bai Xi jerked her hand back as if waking from a dream, taking two steps back in fear.
The ripples deep within her soul seemed to be reminding her, or warning her, that she shouldn't touch it.
I didn't run into them, thankfully I didn't.
Bai Xi touched her chest, silently rejoicing in her heart.
With such powerful seductive abilities, it's no wonder the Bone Lord went so mad; even someone like her, who thought she had pretty good willpower, was almost seduced.
What exactly is the origin of this mirror?
Bai Xi felt the same unease and subconsciously wanted to turn around to look for Luo Yi and the others who had been with her, but found that the place where the little ghost had been was empty.
Roy, Little Jellyfish, and Leia have all disappeared.
"!"
This time, Bai Xi truly felt what terror was.
Can this mirror block elemental spirits?
This was the first time she had encountered such a situation since she transmigrated. She thought that everyone could be isolated by magic, but elemental spirits were special and should be unaffected.
Just as Bai Xi's unease was building up, surging like ocean waves, about to crash onto the shore.
But she heard her own voice in her ear.
Are you scared?
In an instant, Bai Xi felt as if her soul was frozen. Even though she was already dead and a ghost, she still clearly felt what horror was.
She stiffly turned her head and, unsurprisingly, saw her reflection in the mirror, staring intently at her, the words coming from her own mouth.
Seemingly sensing that Bai Xi didn't want to talk and wanted to run away, she spoke again in the mirror.
"I am you, don't be afraid."
That's what she said, her face still bearing that divine, indifferent expression, as if she saw no one else.
If I had to put it in a way, it's somewhat like the state of Archangel El, similar to human-machine AI, but with an added touch of holiness.
To Bai Xi, her words sounded as absurd as a thief saying he wouldn't steal your money or a robber saying he wouldn't snatch your bag.
What are you?
When Bai Xi asked this question, she was already on high alert, and she was secretly mobilizing the magic power in her body, trying to manipulate the magic book.
She wanted to smash the eerie mirror.
If she could, she would rather not interact with any suspicious or eerie objects that might lead her astray.
After all, this mirror doesn't look like a good thing.
Bai Xi firmly believed this.
She's read countless works of art, even fairy tales say that mirrors are magic mirrors. Even if she's stupid, she can't talk to such a thing.
However, Bai Xi found that she seemed to have lost all her magic.
The flow of magic within her seemed to have disappeared, and she returned to the state of an ordinary person, or rather... an ordinary undead.
In short, she has no way to save herself now.
"...."
Bai Xi quietly broke down, but on the surface, nothing was visible.
"I've said it before, I am you."
"That's what I saw in the mirror," I replied.
It seemed like an answer, but to Bai Xi, it was nothing but nonsense.
"We have nothing to say. I just wandered in here by mistake, and I'll leave now."
Bai Xi felt like she was choking on blood, but she remained calm and spoke cautiously.
Sometimes you can't say she's a coward; you can only say she's a wise person who knows when to yield. She knew she couldn't beat this guy, so running away was the best of the thirty-six stratagems.
Begging for mercy might work, but Bai Xi didn't want to pay any price.
Dignity is worthless.
"Aren't you in such a hurry to leave? Don't you want to know the truth about why you came here? Don't you want to know why I look like this to you?"
The woman in the mirror was still talking, each question a constant source of trouble for Bai Xi, yet she could never find a solution.
Bai Xi pursed her lips. Reason told her that she couldn't listen, and shouldn't listen.
These are all tricks the mirror uses to deceive her. The mirror may not actually know anything; it might have obtained her memories.
But one voice kept echoing in my mind.
What if... what if... the mirror really knows?
