The Dean Has Arrived

The not too big house was filled with the stench of rotting corpses.

Although Xi Wei tried his best to keep his footsteps light, but because the wooden escalator was in disrepair for a long time, it creaked every time he took a step.

I knew I should use the levitation technique to slowly float up...

Xi Wei regretted it in his heart for two seconds, then he simply walked up the stairs with the mentality of breaking the jar.

The stairway leads directly to a straight corridor. There are no doors and windows on both sides of the corridor, only a few bloody handprints. At the end of the corridor is a brown wooden door.

Xi Wei came to the door and found that the mage's alarm did not call the police, so he gently opened the door.

The room was very spacious, occupying about half of the second floor, and it was pitch black inside, and nothing could be seen.

Xi Wei subconsciously released the holy light ball to illuminate it, only to find that the light from this ring of holy magic could only illuminate a radius of about one meter, and the light outside disappeared as if it had been swallowed by darkness.

Xi Wei sensed it carefully and found that there was no magic power fluctuation around.

In other words, it was not the effect of magic that caused this darkness.

As soon as his hand left the wooden door, the door clicked shut like an automatic door.

At the same time, the whole room lights up.

The room is a square hexahedron, including the ceiling and floor, it is all white, without any flaws.

Xi Wei noticed that even the original door behind him disappeared the moment the room lit up, and it became a pure secret room.

Not only that. Even the flow of magic power in the body seems to be disturbed.

But he didn't panic too much. As a great magician and a traverser covered in cheats, even if he couldn't use magic, he still had many emergency measures.

Not to mention other things, the fact that the miracle of the dual existence was not affected, and that it can still be used normally gave him enough confidence.

The room was not empty.

In addition to him, there was a large table and two soft chairs in this room, one side was covered with heavy linen, and it might be something like a screen from the outside. and one sitting behind a wide wooden table. A girl in a black robe.

The moment he saw the other party, Xi Wei felt a stabbing pain in his head, but it subsided in an instant.

"The halo of terror known as the nemesis of mages..."

He gently rubbed his temples, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Like talking to that girl. He whispered again as if talking to himself: "So you should be a witch? Thriller, prominence bird, confinement... What is your body? It's really curious."

Xi Wei's move had only one meaning. It is to tell the other party: Your ability is useless to me, and I have seen through your hole cards, it is better not to play tricks.

"Hello. Xi Wei Edric, I have heard a lot of rumors about you."

The other party didn't seem to care about Xi Wei's demonstration, but instead smiled, and his royal blue pupils also stared at him without blinking.

"This space of yours is very strange...and it doesn't seem to be normal magic."

Xi Wei frowned unobtrusively, and continued to say calmly: "And it shouldn't be the effect of the magic device, let me guess its true face."

He stared at the girl's equally expressionless face, and said word by word, "I'm afraid, this is a trick of witches, right?"

The other party applauded, and continued to say in that flat tone without any ups and downs: "As expected of the youngest great magician in modern times, just as you guessed, this is indeed a kind of black witchcraft."

Immediately afterwards, she lowered her slap and continued: "However, it is different from ordinary black witchcraft, because the spell-casting materials are mixed with some other things, even you should not be so easy to leave here."

"Then what are you going to do? Lock me up and have a pleasant chat together?"

Xi Wei pulled away the empty soft chair, sat down, spread his hands at the same time, and asked with a helpless expression.

"Please play a game with me."

The girl pushed aside the thing covered by the linen behind her, and what appeared in front of Xi Wei was a large floor-to-ceiling mirror.

For some reason, Xi Wei always felt as if he had seen this mirror somewhere.

"This is the Magic Mirror of Van Eris." As if seeing Xi Wei's doubts, the girl slowly explained: "However, its frame was destroyed when the monster you defeated was released, and this one is remade of."

No wonder it feels familiar but doesn't recognize it.

Xi Wei was stunned, but then a bigger question came again.

Shouldn't this thing be in the hands of the vampire princess? Why is it here?

The girl didn't give Xi Wei time to ask questions. She patted the mirror lightly, only to see ripples on the mirror like the surface of water.

"This is an ancient magic mirror that has been handed down from an era longer than the previous era. It can only be said that its original owner is too stupid to use it as a seal carrier. Now it is its real appearance."

Following her words and the slowly spreading ripples, many moving images like videos began to appear in the mirror.

Xi Wei recognized the figures in those images.

Tio and Alisa playing in the ancient forest; Sophia earnestly absorbing knowledge in Edric's library; Alice humming and cleaning the kitchen; Saranlia running in the wild wearing a black hood ... Many people Xi Wei knew jumped on it, and the last thing that emerged was himself lying on the desk in the dean's room.

In other words, another him with a double existence.

"Van Eris is a cursed magic mirror. Its greatest effect is to absorb people's souls. That's why it had another famous name a long time ago—the soul-imprinting mercury mirror."

The girl explained slowly: "It can reflect the extremely important person in a person's heart, and once the mercury mirror is broken, all the people inside will be absorbed by the Van Eris magic mirror."

"lie."

Xi Wei's face remained unchanged, but he just repeated: "You're lying."

"Indeed, I exaggerated a bit. At least its ability is useless to a powerhouse of your level."

The girl nodded: "But at least for those who don't have the strength of a high-level magician, there is no doubt that Van Eris is powerful... If you don't believe me, we can try it now."

"What exactly is your purpose?"

Xi Wei's face darkened. Although he doesn't really believe in the ability of this mirror, he doesn't intend to risk the lives of his students or friends.

"Although under normal circumstances the magic mirror of Van Eris is ineffective against you, but if it is under the condition that you have signed a voluntary contract, even a great magician cannot resist its effect." The girl showed a smile on her calm face. : "Please play a game with me. If you lose, I will receive your soul."
