Angel had met Ms. Mello when he was in the Savage Cave. At that time, Ms. Mello was just as described by Salum, with every move she made carrying an elegance and classic flavor. In line with her neat style of acting,
Just like the etiquette teacher in a traditional aristocratic family.
At this time, although Ms. Melo's face was full of sadness, the sense of elegance emanating from deep within her heart had not diminished at all.
"Sibyl... Colossus..." Ms. Merlot was wearing a long black dress, sitting on the edge of a damp stone bed, muttering something softly, with a worried expression on her face.
He stood up suddenly and looked around suspiciously.
There was nothing around, and the cramped space had an air of oppression as always.
However, she clearly heard some rustling sounds in the room just now. A large magic energy array was laid outside the prison here, so there was no possibility of bugs and rats moving around. What could that sound be?
Or is it her imagination?
Just when Mello was suspicious, she didn't notice that before she knew it, it was quiet outside the cell, unlike before, with the chattering of other inmates.
It wasn't until Mero inadvertently turned her peripheral vision to the prison door that she was surprised to find that at some point, the outside of the grid window was filled with a faint mist.
Was there fog in the corridor, or was it just her cell that was abnormal?
Mero subconsciously wanted to walk to the door and look out.
However, before taking two steps, Mero stopped. Because she heard movement in the room again, and this time it was very clear, it was the sound of footsteps!
Right behind her!
Melo turned his head slowly and stiffly. As expected, there was an extra person in the cell, leaning against the wall not far away.
That was a man with red hair and golden eyes, could Mero be sure? She had never seen him before.
Mero didn't know who the visitor was or what his purpose was, but could he break through the outside magic energy array? Appear in her cell? He was either a high-level official of the princess's castle with authority, or an official wizard.
No matter which one it is? From Melo's current perspective, it won't be a good thing.
But? No matter what he thinks in his heart? But on the surface, Mello did not show any timidity at this time. Instead, he stretched out his hand generously, indicating that the other party could sit down.
The only place to sit in the cell? Of course it was the stone bed.
"Lady's bed? I don't dare to sit down casually. This is a disrespectful offense." Angele paused: "Even if it is a bed in a cell."
Melo said calmly: "Is it also rude to refuse the lady's invitation?"
Angel smiled and did not talk about this topic any further. He used the so-called etiquette as his opening remarks, but he thought that the sudden appearance might make Ms. Mero feel nervous or uncomfortable. But now it seems that Ms. Mero deserves to be able to do so.
Gained the praise of Sarum? Even in the face of emergencies, he still behaved very calmly.
If that's the case? Then there's no harm in just saying it.
Angel: "Is it rude or not? If we really want to discuss it? I think it would be better to change the venue. For example, Old Potter's Tavern?"
Mello's pupils shrank slightly when he heard Old Potter's name. Old Potter had been lurking in Princess Town, and almost no one knew that he was related to the Savage Cave, but the other party suddenly mentioned this, obviously implying something... or
What's the threat?
"Old Potter's tavern is indeed a good place for conversation. But the place is very remote. How did you think of it?" After speaking, Mello stared at Angel with burning eyes, as if he wanted to learn from the other party's words.
What can be seen in the expression.
"Because, I just came out of there not long ago... Well, I also met a friend there who claimed to be your friend. He rushed into the castle recklessly to save you, but was chased for hundreds of kilometers.
Poor. Do you know who I’m talking about?”
Ms. Merlot was silent.
"Abu Lei." Angel said the answer softly.
When Ms. Melo heard Aboulay's name, the calm expression she had maintained finally changed: "...Abulay, are you okay?"
Angel: "It should be pretty good, and I've met a pretty good partner."
After a pause, Angel added, "I almost forgot to introduce myself."
After speaking, Angel's figure elongated slightly, and the expression on his face changed rapidly, and finally returned to his true appearance.
"Ms. Mello, we have met before, if you haven't forgotten."
Melo stared blankly at the person in front of him, and after a long while he stuttered and said, "Pa... Sir Pat?"
Angel smiled slightly: "It seems that Ms. Melo has a very good memory as Salum said."
Angel seemed to be remembering Ms. Kwamelo, but in fact he specifically mentioned Salum to prove his identity. After all, it is impossible to know that an inconspicuous apprentice like Salum is He Sailum.
Someone related to Lum.
And Angel is Salum's best friend. As Salum's classmate, how could Melo not know about this relationship.
"Mr. Pat, I'm rude." After confirming the identity of the other party, Mello immediately showed an almost self-restraint of etiquette.
"Don't worry, you performed very well." Angel said before that he almost forgot to introduce himself. Of course, it was not true. He was also a little curious about this person who was praised and praised by Salum, so he deliberately introduced himself.
I put the introduction later and did a small test that was not a test. And Ms. Mello did behave as calmly as expected.
"I came here to take you away as entrusted by Abre and Old Potter."
Mero was overjoyed when he heard this, but soon his expression dimmed again: "Sir, please forgive me for overstepping my bounds. I left the barbaric cave this time to accept the task of being a guide. I don't know if you can guide me.
Are you taking the talented person you found with you?"
Angel: "This is not to push the envelope. This is also the purpose of my coming."
Talented people are talents for any wizard organization. They are likely to become the pillars of the organization in the future, so how could Angel give up.
After receiving the confirmation, Melo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I still don't know which talents you have recruited, and I still need you to identify them." After a pause, Angel slowly walked towards the door: "Please follow me."
Mero had no doubt that he was there and followed him without hesitation.
The iron door covered with magic energy array seemed to be transparent at this time, completely unable to block their actions. They passed directly through the closed door and appeared in the corridor.
Only then did Mello realize that the fog she had just seen did not fill the corridor, but simply surrounded Angel...and now included her.
This should be some kind of concealment illusion, right? Mello thought to himself.
Angel continued to move forward, and Mello followed immediately.
After arriving in the corridor, the chatter of the inmates finally reached her ears.
Most of these inmates were caught here by the princess using all kinds of dirty tricks just like her. Although Melo didn't talk to them much in the past few days, he felt that they actually didn't have much to do with them.
To her great sin, some people were also very friendly to her.
Merlo sighed slightly in his heart when he heard the familiar chatter of his inmates.
She actually wanted Angel to save them too, but she also knew that excessive demands were rude.
Melo could only say secretly in his heart: I hope you can hold on for a few more days. When I get out, I will notify people from your organization to rescue you.
As for those wandering wizards, Mero will also go to the Cross Alliance to inform them, but no one will come to save them. After all, most of the wandering wizards have too much time to take care of themselves, so they have no time to care about others.
"How are you these days?" Angel asked casually.
"Aside from the high psychological pressure and worries about the few talented people I have recruited, there is nothing else." Mero paused and said, "The guards on this floor are two gargoyles. They usually don't come in at all.
So, I won’t be punished for staying here, but no one will come to deliver food.”
Mero is already a peak apprentice, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't eat for a few months.
"It seems like the fourth floor of the prison is not bad." Angel compared the previous floors of prisons and said.
Mello: "Your Majesty, what you are saying is that the people in the prisons on the first three floors are not living a good life?"
Angel: "To be precise, there are only two floors of prison. You can see for yourself whether you are living well or not."
He had heard from the fat guard on the second floor that most of the talented people brought by Ms. Mello were on the second floor. Compared to the third and fourth floors, the situation on the second floor was indeed not optimistic.
Mello heard the implication of Angel's words, and his expression became a little gloomy.
All the way to the agency corridor, the poker card was still inserted into the energy pipe, allowing them to move forward unimpeded.
Outside the corridor are the two gargoyles.
Angel's response method was still the same as before. Once Earl was covered, he still easily evaded detection.
After arriving on the third floor.
Their walking speed began to slow down, and Mero needed to go from cell to cell to confirm whether there were any talented people she had recruited.
Fortunately, there are no forks in the prison here, so they can move forward while searching.
Those detained on the third floor are basically extraordinary people, but most of them are first- and second-level apprentices. Although they all look capable, they don't have many characteristics of being tortured.
This made Mero silently look forward to it in her heart, hoping that the talented person she brought could do the same.
However, after visiting all three floors, I didn't see a single gifted person.
This shows that all the talented people recruited by Melo are on the second floor.
It's right when you think about it. After all, the people detained on the second floor are basically ordinary people. Although the talented people have talents, they have not yet used them, so they can be regarded as ordinary people.
Bypassing the guards on the third floor, they finally reached the second floor.
After arriving on the second floor, before they started looking for anyone, they heard a burst of noise.
From the conversations in the surrounding prisons, they learned the news that the fat guard on the second floor suddenly collapsed while on patrol. They didn't know if he died suddenly.
After learning the news, Angel immediately contacted Doakes through the psychic tether.
Although the fat guard was caught in his nightmare, Angel never made a move. It was impossible for the fat guard to fall to the ground because of it. Perhaps the only one who could do this was Doakes.
Sure enough, a conclusive reply came from Doakes. He had already come out of the castle and was now in the second-floor prison: "I did it. I gave that dead fat pig a sap."
As for the reason, Doakes also said that he came to the prison to rescue a homeless apprentice. When he came here, he happened to see the fat man blackmailing a homeless apprentice.
And this wandering apprentice who was blackmailed had once been to Doakes's Cross Bar, and Doakes was somewhat familiar with him.
Even if they were not friends, they were still customers of his bar. How could Doakes allow the fat man to wield a mace against his customers?
Therefore, there is the matter of saping people from behind.
"Don't worry about that fat pig. Anyway, since there is no guard, I can release him later."
After exchanging location information with Doakes again, they stopped talking. Because Doakes was also on the second floor at this time, so if you keep walking, you will eventually meet him.
"Let's continue..." Angel turned his head and was about to tell Ms. Mello to continue, but found that Ms. Mello was no longer around.
After taking a closer look, I discovered that Ms. Mello was outside a prison, talking to someone inside.
"It seems that we have found our first gifted person." Angel muttered and walked over.
When he saw this so-called first gifted person, Angel's eyes flashed with surprise.
The person in the prison was the black-haired girl with a cold expression that Angel noticed before.
At that time, when Angel passed by her cell, he had a vague inspiration. Unexpectedly, the other party was actually the talented person recruited by Ms. Mello.
Moreover, from Ms. Mello's greetings, Angel could see that the relationship between them should be more than just a leader and a gifted person.
Maybe it's more close, a familiar person, or a relative?
After all, this was not the time to talk. Ms. Melo simply asked a few questions and then walked towards Angel: "Sir, her name is Sybil, and she is a talented person I recruited."
Perhaps seeing the confusion in Angel's eyes, Ms. Melo explained: "I also served as her etiquette teacher for a period of time."
Angel nodded clearly. It seemed that he was indeed a familiar person.
Angel didn't think much, and with a wave of his hand, the door to Sybil's cell opened.
Sybil heard Ms. Mello's voice before, but did not see her whereabouts. It was not until the cell door was opened and a mist enveloped her that Sibyl saw Ms. Mello.
When Sybil saw Ms. Merlot, her expression changed significantly, her indifference faded, and she smiled brightly.
However, when she saw a strange man beside Ms. Merlot, Sybil immediately withdrew her bright smile.
"My indifferent lady, your face-changing skills have improved again." Ms. Mello joked and introduced Angel's identity.
After learning that Angel was an official wizard, Sybil also bowed deeply like Ms. Mello before.
From an etiquette perspective, they are indeed of the same origin.
