The mirror in the metal box is about the size of a palm and is oval in shape. The outer ring is wrapped with a layer of silver metal and has a line of delicate text engraved on it.
"Chip, scan!"
"Target: Unknown item introduction: Mirror containing energy fluctuations, the shell is forged from mithril, suspected to be a demonized item..."
After scanning the chip, some information appeared in front of Enzo's eyes. The specific purpose of the mirror was not analyzed, but because it had energy fluctuations, it was suspected to be a magical item.
Moreover, the silver metal on the outer ring of the mirror can be confirmed to be made of mithril.
"Ding! The text information was found and after data analysis, it was ancient [Language of the Spring]. Do you want to translate it?"
"The language of the spring?" Enzo raised his eyebrows and noticed a line of small and delicate words engraved on the mithril inlaid on the edge of the mirror.
"yes!"
After giving the command, the chip translated the text engraved on the edge of the mirror based on the information stored in the database.
"To my best friend Lucy Rice, I wish you the best in the endless years to come..."
"—Sigur!"
There are three paragraphs of text engraved on the edge of the mirror, but because the chip database is not complete enough, only two-thirds of it has been translated.
This mirror seems to be a gift from a man named Siegel to Lucy Rice.
"Lucy Rice?"
Enzo frowned slightly, feeling that the name was somewhat familiar. Suddenly, his eyes widened and he exclaimed: "Goddess of the Night!"
According to ancient documents, the name of the goddess of the night is Lucilece.
"It's actually a gift to the goddess of the night!"
Enzo's heart was a little palpitating, and he murmured: "But who is Sigel? The existence that can call the goddess of the night a friend should be equal to her status."
"Chip, search for Siegel."
"Ding! Searching... According to the book "The Origin and End of the Age of Gods", Sigel is the name of the spring goddess."
"The goddess of springs! She is indeed a deity."
Enzo's eyes flashed, and his heart felt hot. What he got from the Water Demon Gate turned out to be a gift from the goddess of the spring to the goddess of the night.
According to rumors, the goddess of spring water is a deity with weak divine power. She holds the priesthood of [spring water] and does not have her own kingdom. Most of her believers come from mountain villages and countryside, and most of them are unmarried girls.
It is said that the spring goddess is good at divination.
When her followers are confused, they will pray by the well and ask the spring water goddess to guide them in the future. They don't need to pay anything, but they will occasionally get a response.
In the second era, the abyss invaded the world.
In the early days of the war, the goddess of spring water appeared several times, but later she disappeared and there was no news at all. Even some believers gradually forgot about her.
"The goddess of spring water is not good at fighting, but she is famous for divination."
"Could the mirror she gave to the goddess of the night have something to do with divination?"
Looking at the delicate mirror in his palm, thoughts flashed through Enzo's mind. He tried to inject magic power into it, but received no response.
"Forget it, let's study it later." Enzo shook his head and put away the Spring Mirror.
Afterwards, he left the lake area and headed in one direction. Since he already knew the secret of the door, he should naturally continue to search for it.
...
After a while, not long after Enzo left.
The lake has returned to calm, but the surrounding forest is in a mess. It was the destruction caused by Enzo's battle with the water monster.
rustle!
The sound of friction on the ground was heard. A black-spotted python twisted its body and moved forward on the ground. After a while, it came to the lakeside. With a stabbing sound, it transformed into an old man in black robes.
"The fight was so fierce. It seems that the outsider is quite strong."
Old Snake looked around, looking at the broken trees and the deep pits formed by the impact of the water flow, with a strange smile on his face.
Ahead, the lake was calm.
Old Snake stepped forward, his eyes swept across the water, and suddenly stopped at a place, where a white pearl was floating quietly, exuding a white luster.
Without hesitation, he raised his hand to take in the pearl.
"The symbol of the water monster in the lake belongs to me now!" The old snake's vertical pupils flashed with faint light, he looked at the white pearl in his palm and swallowed it in one gulp.
Feeling the authority represented by the symbol and integrating it with himself, Old Snake had a trace of satisfaction on his face.
"Yes! That's it, kill the gatekeepers as much as possible. As long as I fuse enough symbols and control enough territories, I will eventually have a chance to escape Lucilece's control!"
...
After leaving the water monster lake, Enzo walked all the way.
"A thousand gates represent a thousand guardians!"
"I am not the only one who enters this world when the black moon comes. As time goes by, more and more people will know the secret of the door."
"If you want to grab more doors, you have to hurry up."
The trees on both sides continued to recede, and the surrounding environment began to change. Huge rocks appeared in front, and there was a faint sound of fighting.
"Is there anyone?"
Enzo's heart moved and he hid his body behind a boulder.
Projecting vision forward through the chip, on an empty ground, three figures in gray robes flashed past. Not far from them, there was a giant brown monster.
"That's...the tooth of the boulder?" Enzo's pupils shrank.
The brown rock-like body stood five meters tall, like a little giant. Its huge feet stepped on the ground, making the ground tremble slightly.
The Tooth of the Stone, an ancient creature.
It is said that they are the ancestors of stone monsters, and even have the blood of giants. They are famous for their strength and defense, and have extremely long lifespans, but they spend most of their time sleeping.
"Looking at their attire, they are three wandering apprentices."
Enzo looked at the three humans again. They were all wearing gray robes, but there was no logo embroidered on their collars. They seemed to be wandering apprentices.
Judging from the fluctuations in magic power, these three people are all third-level apprentices.
"I'll contain it from behind, and you attack from the front." At this time, the only female among the three wandering apprentices shouted, and then moved quickly, ducking behind the Stone Fang, "The weakness of the Stone Fang is its eyes, you guys
Move quickly!"
After saying that, the female apprentice shook her head.
The long green hair grew like weeds, covering the ground in a moment, and then like vines, it attacked the tooth of the boulder, wrapped around its heavy legs, and tightened crazily.
"Do it!"
The other two wandering apprentices also started to move. One of them, a tall and thin wandering man, held a fiery red spear in his hand and rushed towards the Tooth of the Stone with a low roar.
Another short wanderer also whispered a spell and summoned a ferocious vicious dog.
