When everyone gathered again in the Hall of the Wise, it was already an hour later.
Doakes's expression was filled with secret joy, and the corners of his mouth would curl up from time to time, but every time he raised it, he was afraid of being discovered, so he immediately put on a stern attitude.
From this point of view, the "treasure" Doakes received from the wise master should be very satisfying to him.
Vai and Kael were unabashedly happy. They read a lot of books in the study, many of which were not available in the outside world, or were inaccessible at their level. These were extremely precious.
Even though they only had one hour of reading time, the wise master did not prohibit them from using cheating methods such as image stones or reading techniques.
Therefore, their gains are real. Even if they don't gain anything from the next trip to Qingkong Poetry Room, their trip will definitely be worth it.
The Black Earl and Angel were as calm as ever and did not show any emotion. But in the eyes of others, they would definitely get better results if they talked to the wise master alone.
"That's all I can do and say. If you have nothing to ask, just move on. Of course, if you want to rest, you can rest here for a while. However, the longer you stay, the more time you have to prepare for the goddess.
It will also take longer. Therefore, it is up to you to decide how to weigh it."
As the wise master spoke, he waved his hand, and the door to the passage on the other side was instantly opened.
Looking deep into the hall, it was pitch black and nothing could be seen, only gusts of cold wind blowing.
Everyone discussed it in the psychic belt and finally decided: move on now.
However, before leaving the Hall of Wise Men, Angel took the trouble to ask Kael and Vai again for their opinions and whether they still planned to continue.
In Angel's view, both Kael and Vai can actually stay in the Hall of the Wise. At least here, they are safe.
And the way forward... is always unpredictable.
No one can guarantee their safety.
Even though Angel may have a trump card, Kael and Vai are only apprentices after all. If they are really in danger, Angel cannot guarantee whether they can save their lives before the trump card is used up.
Facing Angel's inquiry, Kael said without hesitation: "I will not give up."
Even though Laplace told Kal-El that this was not his destination, Kal-El still wanted to continue. What he wanted to prove was that his enthusiasm for historical relics was not only due to the influence of the remnant soul, but actually also
He has love from the bottom of his heart.
In the eyes of others, Kael's choice was a sign of stubbornness.
But as outsiders, they couldn't say much. What's more, Kael continued to move forward on the grounds of proving his inner truth, so they couldn't stop him.
Maybe this is a hurdle in Kael's heart, or a demonic obstacle. If he doesn't overcome it personally, Kael is likely to be lost, so no matter how dangerous the road ahead is, Kael will not give up.
Vai's answer was the same as Kael's, and he also planned to continue.
Vai is a descendant of the Noah clan. If he doesn't even dare to go to the place of his ancestors, then he probably won't have the courage to go his own way in the future.
It is even more impossible to catch up with Doakes.
However, Vai was very decisive when he made the decision, but after making the decision, he started to worry.
Vai's actions in the next second opened everyone's eyes.
Vai walked up to Doakes, pulled his sleeve, and asked seriously: "Do you feel sad and painful in your heart now? Do you feel as if the sky is falling?"
Doakes was a little confused and didn't know what Vai meant, but he still said truthfully: "No."
When Vai heard what Doakes said, he breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, I should be safe."
After hearing what Vai said, everyone realized that Vai was using Doakes as a "danger detector". Doakes' inspiration was very strong. Since Doakes didn't feel sad, then Vai felt that he
It will definitely be fine next time.
Dox was stunned for a moment, and realized what Vai meant. He couldn't help but said: "Why do you think I will be sad? Let me tell you, even if you die here, I won't feel uncomfortable at all."
.It won’t work if you use me as your tester!”
Doakes expressed righteously that he didn't care at all about Vai's safety.
However, Vai pretended not to hear it.
Vai knows Doakes very well. This guy is a man of integrity.
When they went on an adventure together, Doakes once thought that Vai was dead and was depressed for more than half a year. This can be seen from this.
What's more, Vai has saved Doakes many times and had a real feeling of saving his life. With Doakes's character, Vai died before he could even fall in love with Vai, and he would definitely become Doc
A knot of Si’s heart.
Therefore, Vai didn't care at all about Doakes' solemn statement now, and just ignored it.
…
After choosing to move on, everyone did not delay. They said goodbye to the wise master and walked towards the next passage.
The wise master did not say anything sensational or expected, but quietly watched everyone disappear into the depths of the passage.
He has said what needs to be said, and will do what needs to be done in the future. Now it’s up to them to see if they can succeed.
There is no doubt that the Black Earl can come out. Even if the clone dies, the real body will come. But cooperating with the Black Earl is just a back-up move played by the wise man. What he really values ​​​​is Angel, a chess piece full of variables.
Perhaps only Angel can make this stagnant chess game stir up new waves.
"Lord Lord, I just received news from my mother that Her Majesty the Goddess may have laid a trap on the road ahead." Suddenly, a voice came into the ears of the Black Earl.
Following the sound, I saw a dark hole in the wall.
"It's Erbao."
Dumu Erbao: "Lord Master, do you want to inform them?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The wise master shook his head: "No, the goddess will do everything possible to stop them from moving forward. They themselves know this, so they must be aware of the dangers ahead.
Prepare. It doesn’t matter if you notify me or not.”
"Moreover, I have an agreement with the goddess. I will not control the magic energy array near the Qingkong Poetry Chamber unless I have to. And if you go, it will make the goddess suspect that I have broken the agreement."
"Now, it's not time yet."
As for when the time will come? Naturally, it will be when Angel and others successfully leave the Clear Sky Poetry Room, and that is when the wise master will take the initiative to intervene.
Although the wise master did not intend to intervene now, he still walked silently to the depths of the hall - the place he said was the bedroom.
In terms of purpose, this place is indeed the bedroom where the wise master took his original form.
However, this is not just a bedroom, there is a secret room hidden here, which is a core node of the underground sewer magic energy array.
Originally, there was no core node here. But after the Naraku incident, the remaining masters worked together to transfer the core node of the magic energy array to the hall of the wise master.
Because the wise master has the longest lifespan, he will also be the only master who remains awake in the future.
After doing all this, the other masters fell into deep sleep, waiting for Naraku's glory to return.
The wise ruler will guard this core node for thousands of years in the blink of an eye.
The Wise Lord is currently unable to control the core nodes of the magic energy array to help Angel. However, their breaths are recorded in the Mantra Book, and the Wise Lord can sense their status and approximate location through their breath, combined with the magic energy array.
If Angel and others really suffered a fatal blow before arriving at the Clear Sky Poetry Chamber, the wise master would still come to help.
Whether it is Angel or the Black Earl, the benefits of showing kindness to them are definitely higher than refusing to save them.
…
At this time, everyone who walked out of the Wise Man's Hall returned to the dark passage.
One second they were in the warm and comfortable Hall of the Wise Man, and the next second they were in a cold and long passage with no end in sight. For a moment, everyone had the illusion that time and space had changed.
"Fortunately, although the passage here is a little dark, at least there is no smell." Doakes muttered.
Everyone was convinced that during their journey to the Wise Man's Hall, they could smell a faint stench along the way, especially when they reached the fork in the road. The stench at one of the intersections was so strong that it reached the extreme.
If they hadn't been running fast at that time, they would have fainted from the smell.
Now the passage here is also dark, but there is no smell, which also means that the passage here does not lead to the smelly ditch.
This is a very good experience for them, especially Black Earl.
Doakes's opening can be regarded as breaking the silence, so that everyone's atmosphere did not continue to cool down because of the unknown road ahead, but became warm again.
Doakes looked around and finally fixed his eyes on Angel: "What did you and the wise master talk about alone? Did he give you anything good?"
Angel glanced at Doakes and said nothing.
As early as when he was in the hall, he noticed that Doakes was full of curiosity about him and the Black Count. He seemed to believe that they must have gotten something good. He always wanted to ask, but never had the chance to ask.
Now that he had just left the Hall of Wise Men, Doakes couldn't help it anymore. He didn't dare to ask the Black Earl, but Angel, he still dared to provoke him.
To be continued...
