Angel: "Can the Sea Eye wash away Magic Patterns or energy like inscriptions?"
Laplace nodded: "Yes, the Sage once asked me this question. The Sea Eye can not only wash away Magic Patterns on items, but even the energy contained within your human so-called blended alchemy works will be flushed back to its original state."
"Unless the energy reaches a higher tier, it can only maintain stability for a short time inside the Sea Eye."
Upon hearing Laplace’s description of the Sea Eye, Angel immediately thought that if a failed work made from rare Demonic Materials was tossed into the Sea Eye, or if he wanted to find a rare Demonic Material but only had the finished product, wouldn’t it be possible to reuse these rare materials?
At this thought, Angel felt his heart ablaze.
However, Laplace quickly dampened his enthusiasm: "Your idea is similar to that of the Sage; he had thought of this too. But it’s impossible to realize, as not everyone can enter the Sea Eye. Even creatures within the mirror view the Sea Eye as a forbidden place."
"I’ve heard that Legendary powers can resist the erosion of the Sea Eye for a short time. However, if one delves deeper into the Sea Eye, they will still be washed into hollow creatures devoid of energy."
"And if you want the Sea Eye to wash away the so-called failed works, it requires time measured in months, which even a Legendary Wizard cannot withstand."
Angel knew that such an enigmatic place as the Sea Eye must be extremely dangerous, but he hadn’t expected that even a Legendary Wizard couldn’t withstand it.
However, there’s one situation Laplace didn’t mention: for instance, if a Legendary Wizard places an item into the Sea Eye and then leaves, returning after several months to retrieve it.
This might have a certain success rate... But the premise is that you need to become a Legendary Wizard.
Angel shook his head, not dwelling on such an almost unattainable dream.
Bringing it back around, considering that the Sea of Void Mirror contains a place like the Sea Eye, he now understands why the Pastor God’s double-sided mask, purely crafted by old stone, showed no traces of other magic power blending. Alchemy, Magic Patterns, inscriptions, etc., were absent, only the basic longevity and memory absorption abilities of old stone remained.
It’s estimated that this is due to the Sea Eye.
"If the Pastor God’s double-sided mask hadn’t been swept into the so-called Sea Eye, I suppose we could determine whether it’s the divine equipment of the Pastor God... Alas," Dox sighed.
After sighing, Dox proposed a theory: "If the Pastor God’s double-sided mask truly belongs to the Pastor God’s family, did the Pastor God enter the Sea of Void Mirror? Could he have encountered misfortune?"
Otherwise, why would the mask be left in the Sea of Void Mirror?
No one answered Dox, though Angel and the Black Earl had also considered this possibility, they tacitly chose not to voice it.
The Pastor God is such a figure that he dared to scheme against the Demon God and even profited from the calamity caused by the Demon God. His shadow still protects the Pastor God’s family today, proof of his impressive strength.
Whether the Pastor God encountered misfortune isn’t the topic for discussion now. Moreover, many powerful beings are sensitive to mentions of their name, and if their name is cited with malice, they might perceive it. So, avoiding discussion is better; impudent judgement is even less advised.
"We’ll set aside other matters for now. Anyway, the only value left in the Pastor God’s double-sided mask is in its materials. We can discuss how to allocate them later," Angel said in the Mind Ribbon, concluding the topic about the mask for the time being.
Having finished with the mask, Angel questioned Laplace with new inquiries.
"Do you know any weaknesses of You Nu?"
They’re about to face You Nu, and since You Nu is a mirror creature, even though the Wise Sovereign had given relevant clues about You Nu before, Angel chose to inquire further for safety’s sake.
Regrettably, Laplace shook her head: "As for weaknesses, I don’t know. I’m not interested in battles."
Angel, unwilling to give up, asked: "Then do you understand You Nu?"
Laplace pondered: "I don’t pay much attention to what happens outside the Sea of Void Mirror, You Nu won’t step into the Sea of Void Mirror. However, I remember the Sage mentioning that You Nu has also condensed a Temporal Body, but it’s entirely composed of her own personality without integrating external memories."
"You Nu has a Temporal Body too?" Angel was startled.
Laplace nodded: "I remember You Nu’s Temporal Body, aligned with her personality traits at different periods, namely, Childlike Mind, Maiden Mind, and Maternal Compassion."
"If you plan to fight You Nu, Childlike Mind is the easiest to deal with, followed by Maternal Compassion. As long as you capture her child, Maternal Compassion will surely concede. As for Maiden Mind, in my opinion, it’s the hardest to tackle."
Upon hearing Laplace’s words, the group felt bewildered.
There are actually three personalities of You Nu?!
Furthermore, the idea of capturing her child to threaten Maternal Compassion You Nu... They dare not entertain such thoughts, given the Wise Sovereign’s indication that You Nu’s three children are no ordinary beings, potentially even more daunting than You Nu herself.
"This... is a bit headache-inducing," Dox shook his head: "The Wise Sovereign should’ve elaborated more..."
"We aren’t planning to attack You Nu, if we’re merely rerouting, detailed explanations make no difference," Angel remarked: "At least now we have a bit more intelligence."
Angel reassured the group’s morale, then continued to delve into You Nu’s Temporal Body.
Especially on how to determine You Nu’s temporal forms, allowing them to be more targeted when encountering You Nu.
Yet, Laplace didn’t possess extensive knowledge, only conveying that Childlike Mind You Nu is more reckless, Maiden Mind You Nu is somewhat normal but occasionally impulsive, while Maternal Compassion You Nu is both mature and biased.
Apart from that, Laplace was unfamiliar with other aspects.
Angel could only proceed with new questions.
Angel pondered for a moment, hesitating before asking: "Do you know anything about the entity behind You Nu?"
Upon speaking, for the first time, Laplace didn’t answer immediately but instead eyed Angel curiously.
Feeling uneasy being stared at by Laplace, Angel muttered: "Is there something wrong with this question?"
Instead of answering, Laplace asked: "Why did you suddenly inquire about her?"
Angel said: "Because we’ll soon face her."
Laplace fell silent for a moment: "The Sage asked me to offer you words of wisdom, does that mean he’s siding with you?"
Angel replied: "The Wise Sovereign’s stance is something only he knows for sure. Are you particularly concerned about this point?"
Laplace shook her head: "I’m not interested in external affairs, but, the Sage has waited for a long time, and I expected him to continue waiting. It’s surprising that he changed his decision because of you."
After a pause, Laplace continued: "Regarding the entity behind You Nu, her status in this Mirror Domain is somewhat unique."
