Doakes narrowed his eyes and said in a playful tone: "This is a bit interesting."
Kael looked at Doakes in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Doakes' mouth twitched, how did he know what it meant? The reason why he said that was because he felt that there seemed to be some clues hidden in the contradictions in the answers given by the Black Earl. At this time, he should say something to heighten the atmosphere.
So he spoke.
In the end, he met the more serious Kael.
Doakes gave Kael a meaningful smile and said nothing, looking like he could only understand.
At this time, Angel said: "My lord is just asking if this witch-eyed ghost comes from the underground labyrinth?"
Black Earl: "That's right."
Angel: "The Wu-eyed ghost cannot be born out of thin air. It must be related. So, could it be that this Wu-eyed ghost was born from the outside world, so the answer is no. But its relatives, such as its father, come from
Underground? So through it, you can look for other witch-eyed ghosts to find the entrance to the underground labyrinth."
Before the Black Earl could speak, Doakes touched his chin and nodded: "What you said makes sense."
Angel ignored Doakes and continued to look at the stone slab, waiting for the Black Earl's answer.
The Black Earl pondered for a few seconds before saying: "It is possible, but it is not only related to kinship, it may also be other things, or even other people."
The moment the Black Earl finished speaking, everyone seemed to have thought of something, and simultaneously turned their heads to look at a corner of the ruins.
A short-haired woman wearing a leather jacket was sitting on the ground, using her hands to try and get out of this place shrouded in terror.
Extraordinary beings are so terrifying, even scarier than that monster. With a wave of his hand, a large number of arrows pierce the monster's eyes. Has she ever seen such a terrifying sight? Thinking of it, she wanted to divert trouble to others before.
, she only felt that her arms were weak and trembling, and she could only support herself with her hands and move back.
But before she could retreat far, the team members with extraordinary people looked over.
The short-haired woman was immediately too frightened to move.
"Wai, please don't wear a black cloak all day long, like a ghost. Look, you'll make other people's lips turn white from fear." Doakes clicked his tongue.
Vai couldn't speak, but that didn't stop him from using his magic power to highlight a row of words on the ground: She was obviously frightened by you, who would carry a sword that long?
Doakes said lazily: "But, she is looking at you."
While the two of them were talking, Angel had already walked to the short-haired woman.
Although Angel's image at this time is not as sunny as his real body, in the eyes of short-haired women, he is at least better than Vai. After all, Angel has been standing at the back from beginning to end, and he should look the same as her.
Ordinary people.
Angel: "Are you okay? Can you stand up?"
Perhaps it was Angel's soft words or his peaceful temperament that eased the short-haired woman's nervousness. Her legs no longer trembled, and she was finally able to climb up the dilapidated wall and stand up unsteadily.
"Hello, can we communicate?"
As Angel spoke, he controlled the power of nightmare, constantly calming the other party's ups and downs of emotions, making her feel peaceful again.
After regaining her sense and calmness, the short-haired woman did not speak, but still looked at Angel and others warily.
"Can't I get you to speak even with the help of life-saving measures? I don't like to use force, but if you still don't agree, then I can only do this."
As Angel spoke, he gently raised his hand, and a blazing flame floated in his palm.
Looking at the flame, the short-haired woman immediately realized that this was also a transcendent person!
The flame kept leaping, and even in the flame, there was an illusion, which was a woman being burned by the fire... No, that woman was her!
Perhaps there was the power of the nightmare to soothe her emotions. Although the short-haired woman was surprised and threatened, she did not lose her head. She already understood what she should do.
To have a conflict with a team that has at least two extraordinary beings is undoubtedly asking for death.
"I, my name is Mia, from the White Crocodile Adventure Group... However, I am the only one now..."
The short-haired woman, Mia, started talking to herself.
Angel did not interrupt her, but listened quietly.
There are currently two speculations. One is that the kinship of Wumu ghosts is the breakthrough, and the second is the people and things related to Wumu ghosts. At least in their perception, the most relevant thing to Wumu ghosts at present is secrets.
Ya. Even if they belong to the relationship between hunter and prey, this is also within the scope of prophecy.
Precisely because Mia might be the breakthrough point, Angel did not use his extraordinary power to overly influence Mia. After all, prophecy is the thread of fate, which may change anytime and anywhere, especially when it comes to extraordinary power.
Under intervention, the possibility of change is greatest.
As for Mia's mumbling, there might be key clues in it, so Angel also listened very carefully.
But so far, Angel hasn't heard any useful information.
Angel had the patience to listen, but Doakes didn't have the patience to listen to these irrelevant trivial matters. He walked forward directly and said to Mia: "Don't talk about anything and everything that will make you meet that witch-eyed ghost."
Tell me all the causes and consequences, including where you encountered it.”
Angel himself would not interrupt, but he would not stop Doakes from interrupting either. Maybe it was Doakes' spiritual perception that came into play.
Angel was obviously prepared to interpret all of Doakes' actions as spiritual perception.
Mia was a little scared when facing Doakes, but the power of nightmare controlled by Angel kept her emotions from fluctuating too much and she was still able to maintain a certain level of calmness.
"The demon we met in the third area on the lower left side of the ruins... the witch-eyed ghost."
"At that time, the Wumu ghost had its back to us, and the captain's eyes were not good. He thought it was a person wearing purple clothes, so he said hello from a distance. As a result, the Wumu ghost discovered it."
Doakes muttered: "...That look is too bad. It's not so late at night, so you can't see the reflection of the scales, right?"
Mia continued to talk about the subsequent development. Basically, each one was given for free. There were originally three people in their team, two of them were killed, and only Mia escaped.
As for why Mia was able to escape as a woman, Mia did not dare to lie. She simply said that she betrayed her teammates.
"I just want to... live."
Doakes raised his eyebrows: "Wanting to live is not an unspeakable thing... go on."
Mia was silent for a moment: "There was no follow-up, and then I met the adults."
Mia's silence obviously meant that she had something to say. But no one asked, so they could guess that she was silent because she didn't dare to say that she came here because she wanted to divert trouble.
Just like she sold her teammates, it's best to "sell" them to the Wumugui to buy herself time to escape.
Everyone knows the unfinished words, but they don't bother to ask.
Doakes: "That's all gone. Are there any other details? Especially when encountering a Wumugui or being chased by it, is there anything unusual about it? Or are there other companions of it around?"
Mia thought for a moment, but still couldn't think of anything unusual, and was about to shake her head.
At this time, Doakes muttered again: "Is your adventure group stupid? Are you still the captain? You don't have any sense of crisis, and you still take the initiative to say hello to unknown beings?"
Listening to Doakes' words, Mia's mind moved and she said: "I remembered something, I don't know if it has something to do with Wumugui."
"Then let's talk." It was Angel who spoke.
After finishing speaking, Angel looked at Doakes with a meaningful look. He had read a lot of detective mystery novels. In these novels, the person who provided the key clues said a lot of useless things.
After that, I was suddenly awakened and added some additional explanations that I thought were unimportant. But generally speaking, these additional explanations are actually important clues.
Now, the person who awakened Mia is undoubtedly Doakes.
Sure enough, inspired people are different.
Angel was envious for a while and continued to listen to Mia's words.
"This matter may start from the beginning of the establishment of the White Crocodile Adventure Group. Originally, our earliest group members had six people. Later, it gradually developed to even twelve people. However, our adventure group has developed the best
When I was there, I encountered a group of hateful guys."
"They call themselves a heroic team, but nothing they do is heroic. The third area on the lower left side of the ruins was originally reserved by our adventure group, but under the banner of justice, they forced their way in and stole a lot of treasures.
"
"We even brought people from other adventure groups to our third area to hunt for treasures."
"How could the leader endure such an insult, so we started a war with the hero team... They were stronger than we imagined, and even the leader died in that battle. With the death of the leader, the members also
They left one after another, and finally only the three of us were left."
At this point, Mia's face was filled with sadness.
But Angel was speechless when he heard that. This kind of "booking out" was wrong from the beginning. Moreover, the so-called hero team at first only came here to hunt for treasures and did not conflict with you. On the contrary, your leader couldn't stand it.
To be continued...
