Chapter 1433 (2/2)
Three people continue to move forward, on the road there are several similar sentry stone statues, which may be set up by the owner of the secret road to monitor the position of people passing through the secret road. As they did, they easily shielded the stone statues and soon came to the depth of the secret road. Calculate the distance, they should have gone deep into the mountain, although the deep distance does not touch the core.
In front of the secret Road, there is a circular hall. On one side of the hall is the secret Road, and on the other three sides are three large objects with two people high and covered with cloth curtains. But familiar with furniture, especially the noble family furniture, people can easily identify things under the cloth curtain, it is a mirror, a very large mirror.
Mirrors are rare and precious in this era. Most people can only see their own image in the water all their lives. Only businessmen and nobles can touch mirrors, let alone big mirrors that can reflect the whole body.
For mages, the mirror has other meanings. Its reflection can help mages to see many things that can't be seen by naked eyes or even the magic vision, and can also distinguish the real appearance of many things under camouflage.
For example, the figure of blood clan and vampire will not appear in the mirror, that is because they have no object to be mapped, just a black fog to leave the world, disguised as their own appearance.
Not only that, the mirror will frequently participate in the ritual of casting spells and magic. The reality and illusion of the objects in the mirror enable it to reverse influence the noumenon by distorting the image, and even open the channel to another mirror and other objects with similar properties.
This is why mages always have a certain degree of enthusiasm for mirrors. For them, these objects are not only used to appreciate their own props, they have more mysterious significance.
”These three mirrors are enough for a year. No, I'm afraid they're years' salary. I don't know who the owner is, but he must be very rich. ” Russell said angrily.
Generally speaking, mages are rich in resources. They have magic power that ordinary people don't have. They can catch whatever they want. But at least, in Wanfa City, where the proportion of mages is seriously high, resources are not so easy to get. There is a strict management system for the application of research projects, the report of funds, and the misappropriation of various materials, which is also the cornerstone of the construction of Wanfa city research mechanism.
As for Russell, he is just a young spy. For him, although he has a lot of knowledge in the city, it takes a lot of money to turn it into practice.
This can also explain why he was dissatisfied when he saw the other party putting three valuable mirrors here. However, this is also the normal situation of young mages in this city. They will not have enough resources to carry out independent research. On the other hand, their research is often lack of experience. Even if they really invest human and material resources, the final result may not reach the expectation, or even have a disastrous impact.
Although he didn't know the inside story, it's not hard to guess that where there is a long-term organizational structure, the situation is always the same. Therefore, he didn't care about Russell's anger, but turned to the grey robe and said, ”what should I do? Will it be a problem to open it directly? ”
A covered mirror, of course, can be a trap. But they have come here, there is no possibility of giving up because of the three cloth curtains. Cheese is silent for a moment, and then goes forward, ”you two step back, I'll unseal.”
