Kael was still thinking, when a palm touched his shoulder.
"Wake up, there are so many secret organizations gathering here." It was Doakes who spoke.
Kael: "How is it impossible? Residential houses, cellars, secret passages, and underground buildings. Every combination of these keywords reveals an evil and mysterious atmosphere."
Doakes stretched out his right hand and rubbed his chin: "So, your residence in the black market fits your description very well. By the way, there seems to be a cellar and a hidden space in your cabin?"
"My place is a meditation room and a storage room!"
Doakes ignored Kael's retort and continued: "Also, you have also been to my bar. It is in a hidden location and can be considered a residential building. There are also multi-layered hidden buildings underground. When these key words are put together, how can my bar be?
Doesn’t it also reveal an evil aura?”
Kael was stunned for a moment. What Doakes said seemed to be right.
After all, the predecessor of the Garden Mystery Palace was also a supernatural city. It seems normal for a transcendent to create a secret passage in his own territory.
Thinking of this, Kael's excited expression suddenly collapsed.
For those who love ruin archeology, this feeling is like when you thought you caught a big fish, but when you pulled the hook, it turned out to be an empty wine bottle.
"Before we see the specific conditions of the underground buildings, everything is possible. Let's go and take a look. As long as the underground buildings are not too damaged, we can always deduce the past functions from clues."
When Al was in a downturn, Angel spoke at the right time.
However, Angel just said this, and in his heart he still leaned towards Doakes's judgment.
This is not due to spiritual perception, but to secret underground buildings, which are very common in the wizarding world. Even the ruins where he lives has a hidden room.
While thinking this, Angel had already taken the lead and got through the small door in the wall.
After everyone came in, Kael pointed to the two mother and son outside the door and said, "What should we do with them? Just stay outside?"
Kael's voice was also heard by Ke Luo, and he looked over with some fear.
"Don't worry about them. I have set up a magic energy array at the entrance of the cellar. The maximum maintenance time is one week." Angel naturally did not forget the mother and son outside.
There is food and water stored in the cellar, which is enough for them to survive for a week. Even if things don't work out, they can enter the underground building, which is their supply point, and they will never starve to death.
After finishing speaking, Angel walked directly into the depths of the tunnel.
Kael looked at Angel's figure disappearing into the darkness and fell into deep contemplation.
Although Kael is an apprentice, he has met a lot of formal wizards with his mentor. If it were another wizard and he met someone while exploring the ruins, even if the other person was not a threat, he would immediately think of how to "deal with" him. But.
Angel, however, chose to spend energy to build a magic energy array, a trap without any threat.
This was something Kael had never thought of.
Ma Qiusha said before that everyone in the hero team has a bottom line. To be honest, Kael just listened. Ordinary people should keep a certain moral bottom line. This is the key to long-term peace and stability.
But extraordinary people are different. Although they are both human beings and ordinary people, the difference in power is as different as clouds and mud. There is a metaphor that is very appropriate. It is like do humans care about the ants they accidentally step on? For extraordinary people
, ordinary people are just like ants.
Even if the white wizard accidentally stepped on an "ant" to death, he wouldn't think it was a big deal.
Angel is different from other wizards Kael has met. He seems a little indifferent, but he is a wizard with a real bottom line. This is not only shown in dealing with the issue of Ma Qiusha's mother and son, but also in the past.
Let Mia go, and you can see the clues.
Although Lord Black Earl said that Angel was harming Mia by giving her defensive skills and then letting her go. But this is just a guess. At least from the perspective of behavior, everything Angel did was within the bottom line.
Ordinary people are even given a chance to live. But whether they can seize this opportunity depends on that person's choice.
"He's special, right?" At this time, Doakes's voice appeared in Kael's heart.
At some point, the psychic tether constructed by Doakes had been forcibly connected to Kal-El.
"Sir, are you talking about a super-dimensional wizard?"
Doakes: "Sure, weren't you just thinking about him."
Kael was silent for a moment: "Master Chao Dimension is indeed the most special wizard I have ever seen. If it were Master Red Sword, the two people outside would probably have their heads dropped."
Doakes spat: "Don't think that I am so murderous. If there is no interest, I will not waste my energy on killing people. Forget it, what are you talking about? Let's get back to the topic. What do you think is special about him?"
Kael glanced at Doakes who was walking in front in confusion: "Sir, why do you ask that?"
In other words, Kael didn't understand why Doakes suddenly cared about his opinion of Angel?
Doakes pondered for a moment and said: "It doesn't hurt to tell you. My spiritual perception is generally very accurate, but every time it concerns him, there is always a slight deviation. This is very strange. I have a feeling that he
It may be that I broke through spiritual perception and turned it into an innate skill."
Doakes's mind is very lively and delicate, or even a formal wizard's mind is not rough. But when it comes to looking at people and things, he cannot be omniscient and omnipotent. He can only see the side that he can understand.
Doakes asked Kael just to see what Angel looked like in Kael's eyes.
Kael thought for a moment and didn't know how to answer. In the end, he only said one sentence: "I think Master Chao Dimension is a wizard with a bottom line."
"That's it?" Doakes' disappointment was transmitted from the other end of the psychic belt: "I thought you could come up with a novel answer after pondering for so long just now, but it turned out to be really boring. However, I
Let me tell you, you are actually wrong. He is not the good person you imagined. He has a lot of bad tastes and bad thoughts. If the Black Earl and I were not here this time, he would have designated you two to go there.
A pit of death.”
After hearing this, Kael didn't have much reaction, but thought for a while and said: "When I say there is a bottom line, I don't just mean the moral bottom line. I just feel that Lord Chao Dimension is working towards his goal, even if he has already
His progress has reached an unattainable level, but the bottom line he set initially is still his code of conduct."
"Oh, what you said is 'never forget the original intention', but how do you know that he set a bottom line at the very beginning?" After saying this, Doakes shook his head and severed the spiritual tether.
However, after cutting off the spiritual tether, Doakes silently muttered in his heart: "Is this the original intention?"
Obviously, Doakes did not completely deny Kael's views, he was just... a bully.
On the other side, Angel and Black Count both knew that Doakes was communicating with Kael using a telepathic tether, but they didn't bother to inquire because it was unnecessary. Their information and intelligence were far less than what Angel had discussed.
There is a high probability that it is not a matter about the ruins. If it is just pure gossip, it would be very out of character for them to inquire about it.
Of course, it would be a different matter if they had unknown information.
…
The tunnel after the cellar is not too narrow and has obvious man-made traces. Moreover, Angel also sensed some extraordinary materials in the stone layer. It is thought that this is the main reason why the tunnel has been stable for many years without falling.
After walking slowly for about ten seconds, the passage began to have a significant downward slope.
"This is the ancient underground sewer? It was quite exquisitely built." Doakes's voice came from behind.
Angel did not answer, but said directly: "This is not a waterway yet. There are very obvious ditch signs in the underground waterway. This should be just a passage for an underground building built by the people who once lived in the residential building above."
"Doesn't it mean that the underground waterway cannot be reached from here?" Kael said.
Angel: "I don't know. If the person who built this underground building had ulterior motives, it's not impossible that he secretly connected the underground waterway."
The underground sewers of Naraku City sound like they are used for drainage, but in fact drainage is only the most superficial function. The extremely complicated spatial labyrinth was full of all kinds of adventures and legends even back then.
What's more, the government also has agencies in underground sewers.
Therefore, it is not impossible for someone to secretly connect to the underground sewer.
"Then just pray that he has ulterior motives." Doakes said.
Angel suddenly stopped and looked at Doakes: "Speaking of which, before it became a ruin, there were actually many entrances to the underground sewers, and most of the entrances were not restricted. Therefore, it was not possible to enter the underground sewers at first.
Difficult. In this situation, if someone has ulterior motives and secretly connects to the underground sewer, what do you think his purpose is?"
Doakes shrugged: "How do I know? If it is like what you said, what he did must not be a good thing. Maybe he is the villain of the garden maze like what Kael said before."
Kael: "Just now...you clearly refuted me."
Doakes: "What I refute is that underground buildings can be found everywhere. Which of your ears can hear my refutation of the identity of the owner here?"
Kael:...Isn’t what you meant to express an overall refutation?
Kael stopped talking, but he did see Doakes clearly. This guy seemed to have a natural temperament of "refuting for the sake of refuting". However, this situation only applies to apprentices like them, at least Angel and others.
Doakes seldom refutes what others say.
"The villain of the garden maze, that's too general. What do you think the villain will do?" Angel continued to look at Doakes.
Doakes: "The only things villains can do are to overthrow the ruler, rob, or simply be murderous. As long as the ruler is unhappy, they will be happy."
"By the way, you just said that there are official institutions in the underground waterways, including prisons. If there are really people with ulterior motives, they might go to these places. Either attack official institutions or rob prisons."
Angel thought for two seconds and nodded: "I understand."
