The gray mist surges crazily like boiling water, and its originally erratic shape like smoke gradually "thickens". From time to time, outlines that seem to have some meaning or are completely chaotic stand out in it, and are densely packed the next moment.
When struck by the terrifying golden lightning, it slowly dissipated as if upside down.
But in the game between "Uncertain Fog" and "Golden Lightning", the red and blurry giant that would occasionally appear but failed to enter the thick fog was completely missing.
That certainly doesn't mean giving up. Some of the red facial features, limbs or simple color blocks that occasionally appear in the mist clearly indicate that "it" seems to have achieved its original purpose.
And in this strange chaos, the dark mud that suddenly appeared in the corner of the thick fog and quickly spread out, as quiet as the floor, was actually the most normal one among those "abnormal things".
The seven "mirrors" suspended in this quiet "mud swamp" are relatively inconspicuous.
Creak, click.
It was barely put together, and the mirror that reflected a city upside down in the sky broke again, breaking from two pieces into four pieces. Judging from the increasing spider web-like cracks on its surface, it seems that it will continue to break into eight pieces.
Pieces, tendency of sixteen pieces.
"[Uh-huh, it seems you are determined to do this,]" suspended next to the broken mirror, the overall shape is consistent with it, but the mirror only shows a pitch black and a blood-red arc like a smile. The mirror emits as if
A clown-like voice with a strange tone: "[Let me remind you one last thing, when this 'ancient city projection' actually appears in the 'real dimension', you yourself will 'disappear'.]"
The broken mirror remained silent and did not respond.
"[Hehehe, this is not the 'multiverse' we are in, but the 'omniverse' that is one dimension above us. There is no way to restore your 'origin', even if the next 'Unmerciful Iron Fist'
If you can be resurrected, you will also lose the position of 'God of War' that you gave up at this moment. But is an ordinary Bruce without the power of God of War really qualified to join the 'Dark Knights'? Or should we ask this, losing the 'God of War Helmet',
Why does ‘Iron Fist Without Mercy’ exist?]”
Click, one of the mirror pieces cracked again, now it has five pieces.
"[Okay,]" the smiling mirror swayed from side to side, as if shaking its head, and then floated to other mirrors that, although the pictures reflected in the mirrors were different, were not "cracked" for the time being: "[Look at what others have done.
"
There was silence above the mud, and no one responded to it.
"[Then people are - we are not strong enough,]" the smiling mirror said as if giving a speech: "[At least we are not strong enough to escape from the 'hunting ground of God' as a 'prey', but we are
It is because our strength is limited that we are used by those arrogant 'Universe Demon Gods' as a tool to train their offspring, so that we have the opportunity to obtain the power belonging to the 'Almighty Universe' and fight back against them.】"
The pictures and light and shadow reflected by the mirrors kept flickering, but still no one made a sound.
"[Hehe, because one of the 'organizers' of this 'game' engaged in malpractice and sent the players he was optimistic about into the competition, I was able to trace back the original body along the 'power channel' that she did not deliberately cover up.
"
The Smiling Mirror shuttles between different still mirrors, observing the pictures on them one by one - as if it has eyes.
"[Breaking Dawn, your lights-out program can restrain all light rings, so a supernumerary Green Lantern appears without a ring but can still use green light energy.]"
"[Red Death, except for your high speed and the ability to quickly drain the target's time, you have almost no hard power in combat, so a 'Hulk' with extremely strong defense will pop up, and will become stronger as time goes by.
]"
"[Killing machine, hey, you claim to have a very deep understanding of machinery and the virtual world, so your enemy is naturally a genius in machinery and virtual technology.]"
"[The drowned soul... tsk tsk tsk, how pitiful, I don’t know whose reverse scale you touched, but it turned out to be the death of the 'goddess of death' herself, and there is also a subspace evil god hiding behind the scenes, wishing you good luck."
"
"[Destroyer... You are obviously the stupidest one in the Dark Knights, but you think more than anyone else. How does it feel to be manipulated by a group of smart people?]"
"[As for myself, since I am good at inducing malice and evil thoughts and materializing them, it is natural that I can do nothing to them when I meet two guys who have no malice and have evil thoughts themselves.]"
"[The reason why I forced you to use 'mirror doubles' to participate in that ridiculous competition is because the gods who appear in the hunting ground will definitely send out 'players' targeting your respective abilities to launch an offensive. You will most likely be in the early stages of the battle."
They were beaten until they were unable to fight back.]" After turning around in a circle, it concluded: "[But now, the 'ancient malice' has been inspired, and it is no longer the 'Dark Knights' who are fighting them.
Rather, they saw through the 'mirror' that the elements they feared would 'defeat them', and in the millions of years of memory of the 'World Tree', it couldn't be easier to find things that meet the conditions.】"
"[The black hole that can extinguish stars, the King of Fire with the power to seduce people's hearts, the technology to transform flesh and blood into mechanical souls and convert them into nutrients, the magic to rebel against the enemy's undead, the characteristic of not being killed twice by the same kind of damage, and...
…Ah.】"
The mirrors still made no sound, but the clips that kept flashing across the screen, showing those who were originally at a huge disadvantage but easily turned defeat into victory after the tide of darkness swept through, have proven that what the smiling mirror said was true.
"[The only pity is that the 'Unmerciful Iron Fist' did unnecessary things in the early stage of 'showing weakness to the enemy', causing the damage to exceed expectations. As a result, even if it was swept by the tide of darkness, it could no longer be defeated by its own strength.
What the 'former Frost Giant Queen' feared—the entire country she abandoned—reappeared in the real dimension.]"
"[In short, although some of you can no longer hear or are unwilling to listen to me, I still want to say, 'This is all within my plan', hehe~]"
