As the light of life disappeared in the eyes of the "little" giant Sirio transformed from the lava, bursts of high temperature erupted from his Distortion body. Flames under the metal skin surged out from everywhere, licking his whole body, including the Bone Sword in his hand, the weapon on his chest and the "betrayers" behind him.

Bone Sword deformed in the high temperature, but the armored soldiers and their weapons were not affected in any way, which demonstrated the defensive capabilities of this Mystical Item. These soldiers pulled out their weapons one after another, without any pause, and stabbed Sirio's body from behind again.

Swish, swish.

Fortunately, those five were commanded for half an hour, sharing the damage and providing strength. Tinplate Soldiers, who acted like a fool, did not hate his former boss too much. After confirming that Sirio Sauron was completely dead, he immediately stopped and did not show a great show of corpse dismemberment in front of Angel.

But Angel soon discovered that it wasn't that they didn't want to, but that they couldn't.

As Sirio covered with metal skin and rolling lava inside, Incomplete Mythical Creature Form collapsed, and the corpse turned into a lump of shapeless iron in the high temperature, exuding a strange smell.

The five armored soldiers who killed him also raised their weapons, posing in different styles, but all of them were postures to welcome victory. They shrank to the size that can be held in one palm, and connected end to end one by one, restoring the iron-black Tin Man pendant shape of Oldest One.

Has the Spirituality lost its master's support and returned to its original state, or has the duration expired?

Angel quickly landed on the ground, approached the group of soldiers, carefully picked them up while they were still a little hot, and then looked at Sirio who had been "stabbed in the back" and died under the incomplete Mythical Creature Form.

This was the result of being in poor condition and forcing himself to move closer to Mythical Creature. Of course, if it weren't for the betrayal of those soldiers, he might still be able to fight... She thought about it, and became more and more convinced that even if she was at a disadvantage in the battle, letting herself go crazy and becoming Mythical Creature was the worst choice.

Moreover, I, or Mythical Creature Form of Demoness Pathway, is most likely Gorgon. If I die in this situation, will I decompose into a pile of Little Snake, or will I Petrification myself?

Shaking his head and no longer thinking about such horrible things, Angel came to Sirio and used the power of "Frost" to quickly lower the temperature around the corpse. At the same time, he glanced into the distance with the corner of his eye and looked at the out-of-control "Conqueror".

What surprised her was that "Calamity Giant" was still a thousand meters away. The dark clouds, steam and flames floating around him had gradually enveloped his figure, allowing Angel, Demigod, to barely look straight in that direction without being suppressed by his personality and polluted by Spirituality.

It was because He slowed down that the aroused "Calamity" enveloped the huge body again... Because Beyonder, who is the same as Pathway, and of the same family, Sirio Sauron has died and is no longer attractive to Him?

Angel estimates that there are still about five minutes until the giant comes and causes serious pollution and the invasion of Calamity, which is much easier than before.

Therefore, without any delay, she began to search for the shapeless body of Sirio.

After being burned at high temperature, Bone Sword thrown by Angel has been completely deformed and completely damaged, and is gathering a little bit of light. This is not beyond her expectation. A piece of Bone Sword thrown by Sequence 6 "Dawn Paladin" Mystical Item made by Beyonder Characteristic, even if it has excellent defense power, it is difficult to withstand the flames of Demigod level.

In addition, only the simple silver mirror on Sirio and the eye-shaped mirror that brought the two people into Fourth Epoch Trier withstood the ravages of high temperature. Some other ritual items and gold and silver coins have turned into metal blocks whose original appearance cannot be seen, and more items such as banknotes have long been turned into ashes.

He is really poor enough... No, owning a Demigod-level Mystical Item is already stronger than most people... Angel chuckled and muttered:

"Poor guy."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she realized something was wrong. Even if she thought this way in the past, she would always slander her and rarely speak sarcastically.

Is it a side effect of Mystical Item? It inherits some characteristics of "Hunter" Pathway?

After looking at the lifelike appearance of the hands, Tinplate Puppet seemed to have Sirio's blood on the sword tip, Angel made some guesses.

Of course, the characteristics of Mystical Item can be studied slowly after going out. While "Calamity Giant" has not come close to here for a few minutes, Angel has to do one more important thing.

She placed the body of Sirio, which was still hot, on its back, took out the Magic Mirror that was close to her body, and prepared to perform a Magic Mirror Divination.

When he first came to the area of "Fourth Epoch's Trier", Angel discovered that the connection with Spirit World here was extremely weak. This would not only affect Beyonder's own Spirituality's vigilance, leading to Sirio being eventually killed by armored soldiers in a sneak attack, but would also cause instability in any Spirit Channeling, divination and other methods based on communication Spirit World.

If I am not Demigod, let alone Spirit Channeling, even simple divination will fail... Angel muttered, set up Magic Mirror, recited the prayer of Spirit Channeling, and changed the part that originally prayed for the safe Goddess to point to himself.

This will greatly shorten the Spirit Channeling time and consume a lot more Spirituality, but it can avoid the disturbance caused by the weak connection with Spirit World and improve the Spirit Channeling success rate.

Sure enough, while Angel felt that Spirituality was constantly draining away, a burst of mist appeared on the surface of Magic Mirror, and then Sirio Sauron's orange-red hair and face full of anger appeared.

Different from the usually confused Spirit Channeling, he seemed to still retain the emotions he had during his lifetime. This may be related to the fact that he was on the verge of losing control and transformed into Incomplete Mythical Creature Form before dying... Angel estimated that his Spirituality could last for two minutes at most. Without thinking about it, he quickly asked:

"Sirio, do you remember how to leave 'Trier of Fourth Epoch'?"

She didn't even bother to guide the conversation with a few simple questions like she usually did. Instead, she directly pointed out the identity of the other party and got to the point.

"... It's very simple. Use that silver mirror to enter the corresponding, special 'Mirror World', and then leave, and you can return to reality. Touch the mirror three times to activate it," the dead Sirio finally lost his sarcastic expression and replied calmly, "But two identical silver mirrors will interfere with each other and point their destination at each other."

No wonder he activated the silver mirror before and left, and then returned to the same place instantly. This is equivalent to an endless loop. Only by destroying one side can the other side function...

Comparing with the previous actions of Sirio, Angel confirmed the authenticity of the answer and quickly asked the second question:

"What is the real purpose of your action?"

She had some guesses about this, but she still had to speak with the person involved in order to confirm it.

"First of all, of course, we have to deal with you, the culprit who reported us and led to the arrest of an entire team and a senior 'Mirror Person'," Sirio's blank eyes flashed with resentment, and then was suppressed by the Spirit Channeling technique. Made, "Secondly, attract this month's Guardian Angel Bornova Gustav through battle, and bring him into the special Mirror World through the mirror made by our leader. What needs to be done after that is not something I can know."

Bornova Gustav... The one who came to "stop the fighting" was the second son of Emperor Roselle, a Angel who is nearly two hundred years old? The real goal of "Mirror Person" is so big. Want to trick a Angel into Mirror World, copy and replace him?

Hearing this name, Angel feels like a historical figure has come into reality.

"Even if His 'Mirror Person' appears, you can't leave Mirror World, right?"

she asked.

"It seems that you know us well, but through some large-scale disturbances and weakening the seal, there is a chance that Demigod or even Angel can come to Physical World. Before that, we could only find and replace those Sequence 5 with potential, and then promote them to Demigod at Physical World."

"Such as you."

"Yes."

Sirio was so honest that Angel was a little uncomfortable, but then she felt that Spirituality was quickly disappearing, and the image in the mirror became illusory. Knowing that Magic Mirror Divination, who provided Spirituality by herself in this special space, was unsustainable, she thought about it and asked the last question:

"Who is the 'leader' you are talking about?"

Under her expectant gaze, Sirio opened her mouth and spit out a name.

This "information" had not yet left the Magic Mirror, and had not yet entered Angel's eyes and ears, it exploded in the mirror. Angel was stunned, and together with the Sirio Spirit Body inside, they exploded into colorful but completely unrecognizable light.

There seemed to be countless useful or useless knowledge hidden in this burst of light, but before it was completely assembled, it dissipated above the gradually cooling body of Sirio.

Is this, somehow, "Secret Keeping"?

She had seen similar power in Spirit Channeling, so Angel was not surprised. She knew that this secretive organization probably had the means to prevent members from leaking key information, and deliberately left this question at the end to avoid directly losing Sirio's Spirit Body and not being able to obtain any useful information.

I guessed it right. I don't know if it was Luck or luck... She smiled to herself, grabbing the "Iron-Blooded Knight" Beyonder Characteristic that was quickly separated out due to the complete destruction of Spirit Body, and the "Dawn Paladin" properties that were also lying quietly on the ground. While using the simple Wall of Spirituality seal, she looked at "Calamity Giant" in the distance.

The latter's footsteps were aimless, but he was still gradually approaching here. Angel could already feel the slight burning heat, as well as the shudder of looking directly at the smoke and the stalwart figure in Storm.

It's time to go... She didn't dare to use "Mirror World" here, lest the items fall on Fourth Epoch's Trier after leaving. She had to stuff various trophies into her pockets like a thief in a hurry, and stood up amidst the clanging sound.

Then, looking at the two silver mirrors with almost the same appearance, I felt troubled.

"According to what Sirio said, one of the mirrors must be destroyed before the other mirror can take effect.

"So, should I use the side that can take him back to that Special Mirror World, but may face other Mirror Person, or should I use the side that I brought from Backlund, and is said to be able to enter a certain Special Mirror World?"
