At this point, the Black Earl's voice suddenly sounded strange: "By the way, you haven't seen the old guy's daughter in Rhine, right?"
Angel knew something about His Excellency Rhine's daughter. It can be said that this is an indelible scar deep in His Excellency Rhine's heart.
After all, this is a matter inside the Savage Cave, and Angel doesn't want to talk about it in front of outsiders: "I've met her a few times, but she is not the focus of today."
Angel's attitude of not wanting to talk about this matter has been made clear, but the Black Earl seems to have ignored it and continued: "Have you met Samantha? Could it be that Samantha still loves her mentor and went to find him?
And then you bumped into me?"
"Tsk, what a pity. If Samantha hadn't betrayed the Savage Cave, she might have become your master wife now."
Although the Black Earl only said two short sentences, the content in it pointed out that "Samantha is suspected of having an affair with Sanders", "Samantha betrayed the Savage Cave", and most importantly, Samantha is suspected of having an affair with Sanders.
Mansha is also the daughter of Lord Rhine, the current ruler of the Savage Cave.
This is not a secret among the top leaders of major organizations, but to the two apprentices present and Doakes, it is definitely a secret.
Angel could guess it without looking back. It was estimated that the ears of the people behind him were perked up, wanting to continue listening to the gossip.
"Your Excellency Samantha's matter is a matter for the elders. I am not qualified to comment. If Lord Black Earl has any high opinions, you can speak up and I will convey the exact words to Lord Rhine. Maybe your thoughts will coincide with each other."
Since the Black Earl wanted to make fun of her, Angel didn't care. He didn't know Samantha anyway, but he was happy to be the messenger.
When the time comes, Rhine and Black Earl will face each other.
The Black Earl looked deeply at Angel and said softly: "Why don't we just have a casual chat? Why do you look like you want to overturn the table?"
"However, I mention Samantha for no reason. Her most famous technique is called 'Glass Heaven'. Although the concept was proposed in the Savage Cave, it was really perfected when she went to the Frost Moon Alliance.
It was perfected later. Although the Frost Moon Alliance is now a super organization, it has only been established for more than 1,600 years. Its foundation is actually not too deep. As far as I know, the Frost Moon Alliance does not have such a side as the mirror system.
Magical."
"Without the help of Mirror Princess, it will not be easy for Samantha to perfect Liuli Paradise."
When Angel heard this, he still didn't understand what Earl Black was going to say: "Is this related to the Mirror Demon?"
"Don't worry, listen to me. A few years ago, there was a rumor going around that the Frost Moon Alliance discovered the ruins of an unknown legendary wizard in the permanently frozen ice field. Not long after this rumor, Samantha called Glazed Paradise
Use magic techniques to advance into true knowledge."
Angel: "Are the two related?"
The Black Earl wrinkled his nose: "I don't know, but there is something I can tell you. The permanently frozen ice field you know is now an affiliated world occupied by the Frost Moon Alliance, but according to what I found in some ancient books
Fortunately, the eternal frozen ice field was named after that world began to show signs of degeneration and merged with the wizarding world and became an affiliated world. It was originally a large plane called...the Ice Mirror World."
"Do you know what Samantha's code name is now?"
Angel said silently: "...Ice mirror."
Black Earl: "See, isn't this connected? The Ice Mirror World has existed for a long time, but a group of wizards settled in long ago. It is said that the name of that world was also given by that group of wizards. And this
This thing also happened ten thousand years ago."
Angel: "Your Majesty, what you are saying is that the Mirror Demon may be related to the Ice Mirror World?"
Black Earl: "It's just a guess. However, there are ways to verify it."
The Black Earl paused and looked at Angel: "I heard that Mr. Mengqi gave you a promise, allowing you to enter the Flower of Frost and the Chapter of the Moon. This is an incredible reward. If they stay forever
A relic has really been discovered in the Frozen Ice Field that allows Samantha to perfect the Glazed World. Then you can take this opportunity and ask to see the relic. Can't you confirm whether it was left behind by the 'Mirror Demon'?
"
Angel: "..." It's easy to say, but does he dare to go?
However, the Flower of Frost and the Chapter of the Moon are indeed excellent rewards. He does not dare to go now. When he achieves true knowledge, he will have a way to not be afraid of Lord Mengqi - the so-called not afraid does not mean the line, but
With the ability to escape from Lord Monkey safely and without worries, or the ability of a clone like the Black Earl, it is really possible for him to go to the eternally frozen ice field.
The Black Earl seemed to understand Angel's thoughts and continued: "Besides going to the permanently frozen ice field, there is a second way. When you return to the Savage Cave, you can ask Mirror Princess, she should know some inside information.
"
Angel sighed: "I understand."
He also wanted to ask Jing Ji, but Jing Ji was sleeping now, and no one knew when she would wake up.
…
The Black Earl gave a general summary of what he knew and the information that might be related to this "Mirror Demon". However, for them now, it was completely out of reach and could not be confirmed at all.
In other words, although they have discovered this mural, they have made no progress in their exploration of the ruins.
"I can't analyze anything about the murals. Let's put it down for now. We have been in this building for a long time. I guess the people from the Travel Merchant Organization are chasing us. Let's get out of here first." Angel
Although they are quite interested in this group of Mirror Demons because they seem to have some connection with Augustine, they still have to complete their mission.
Since you can't find anything out now, let's put it down and see if you can find anything later.
Everyone naturally nodded in agreement.
"We're leaving, what should we do with this mural?" Kael suddenly asked.
Angel was silent for a moment: "You want it?"
Kael nodded quickly. He was too interested in these things.
Angel thought for a moment and then looked at the others. None of them were interested in the mural, so he said, "Take it with you if you want. However, try not to have too much contact with it after you go back. If this is really related to a demon god, you can take it with you."
It may be dangerous."
Kael nodded without hesitation and quickly put the mural into his own space.
After putting away the murals, there was no need to explore the building. They walked directly along the spiral staircase to the door on the top floor.
The damp wind, carrying a fishy smell that came from nowhere, drifted in from the outside and lingered on the tips of their noses.
Stepping outside, at first glance, it looks like a normal roof. However, there happens to be a stone bridge connecting the roof directly in front of another alleyway, so it is correct to say that this is the exit.
Without looking at the alleyway ahead, if you walk to the edge of the roof alone, you can see the high wall in the distance and the desolate ruins nearby.
Judging from the relatively well-preserved buildings, it is not so much an underground maze as an underground city with staggered high and low levels.
If it were not destroyed, the lights would be bright and the buildings would be staggered, it would definitely be a prosperous scene. Unfortunately, this kind of beauty can only appear in fantasy.
"Where should we go next?" The speaker was a somewhat excited Kael. He looked at the ruins, his whole eyes shining.
Angel first glanced at Doakes. Doakes didn't notice his gaze at all, but stretched his body and looked down the alley downstairs.
Doakes was unreliable, and Angel looked at the Black Earl again.
The Black Earl was silent for a moment: "Although my bloodline does have a resonance with a certain place, I can't be sure whether it is a figment of my imagination or real. Moreover, that place seems very far away from here, and I can't
Determine the direction.”
Now, the problem returned to Angel.
After all, Angel promised to lead them to their destination.
Angel carefully observed the surroundings and found no familiar landforms. He thought for a moment and pointed to the alleyway connected by the stone bridge in front of the roof: "Let's go that way."
There are two reasons why Angel chose the alleyway in front of him. First, when he was in the underground maze of the nightmare world, he always walked in relatively narrow places, and it was difficult to see a broad view. It was more like a maze.
, and here it looks like a city.
Therefore, he gave priority to the alleyway ahead that looked most like a maze.
Second, based on the Uisu language that Earl Black had translated before, he actually had a guess that the "holy object" that the followers of the Mirror Demon wanted to retrieve might be on the Ladder of the Prison. And what they were looking for was
The master mentioned was Franklin, the supervisor of the Prison Staircase. The reason why they also mentioned the Noah family may be because they found out that Franklin's daughter Margaret had some ambiguity with Augustine.
Based on this guess, Angel's intuition told him that if the attack target of the group of believers was really the prison ladder, it should not be far from here.
Angel is still very familiar with the Prison Staircase. The surrounding area has a wide view and is obviously not where the Prison Stairway is.
Therefore, it may be the best solution to go straight towards the alleyway sandwiched between two high walls of unknown height.
Angel did not explain the analysis, but just indicated which direction to go.
No one doubted his presence, anyway, they just had to follow him without any thought.
When they stepped onto the stone bridge, they looked down. Below was the alleyway that they could see through the window before. At the end of the alleyway, there was a black figure lying on the ground.
"That was a dead monster. It had been chewed up to the point where I couldn't tell what kind of monster it was. I just looked down at it," Doakes said.
"That is the corpse of a greedy demon, and it is also a fishing bait. The greedy demon has the habit of eating its own kind, and after eating it, it will be used as bait to catch other monsters, so there should be other greedy demons lying in ambush nearby.
"The Black Earl took one look and directly said the name of the monster.
Even the Black Earl could recognize them after chewing them to the point where there were only a few bones left. This also shows that their experience has been surpassed by the Black Earl.
When Doakes heard that there might be monsters hiding around him, he immediately started gearing up: "Are you going to kill them?"
Angel: "You may have forgotten what I said before. Let me say it again, avoid monsters if you can. If you can use image stones to study ruins, use image stones. Don't waste your time now."
After speaking, Angel said no more, stepped directly across the stone bridge and walked into the alleyway ahead.
Doakes curled his lips and murmured some unknown words, but in the end he followed him.
As soon as they stepped into the alleyway, everyone felt an obvious difference.
There were some fluorite still functioning outside, so it wasn't too dark yet. But when we arrived in the alleyway, it was pitch black, with no light at all.
The two sides of the alley are also quite high, and even though they are connected to the magic energy array on the top level, they cannot jump over, so they can only walk along the alley.
This claustrophobic feeling and the feeling of being unable to reach out made Angel feel as if he had returned to the underground labyrinth in the nightmare world. He was full of confusion about the way forward, and his whole mood was only random thoughts about the unknown.
and fear.
Of course, at that time, Angel was still a rookie who could not even be considered a junior apprentice. But now, Angel is an official wizard, and this darkness is nothing.
Moreover, he has broken through all the underground mazes in the nightmare world, so he is still afraid of the underground mazes in reality? You must know that in terms of danger, the underground mazes in the nightmare world are a hundred times, a thousand times or even more than this one.
Not long after walking, a faint light rose from the side.
It is the light source spell released by Vai. It is an advanced trick of the radiance spell, which can illuminate the nearby area like daylight.
Seeing everyone looking over, Vai wondered: "Did I do something wrong? Can't I use the light source technique?"
Angel: "No, it can be used."
Vai: "......???" Then why didn't any of you use it just now?
Perhaps seeing Vai's doubts, Doakes said: "I originally wanted to use it, but seeing that Angel didn't work, I didn't use it. So, you are planning to compete with me in night vision, right?"
Angel: Who has the leisure to compare night vision with you?
Kael: "Me too, you don't use it, and I don't dare to use it either."
The Black Earl said nothing.
Angel, who was being watched by everyone, said: "..." He was just reminiscing about the feeling in the nightmare world. In his thinking, he didn't think about the lighting issue at all. Why did he seem to be the one taking the blame now?
Angel pondered for a moment and put on a solemn expression: "Even if you don't use the light source technique, do you still need me to command you?"
"As I said before, within the agreement, as long as you don't do anything that wastes everyone's time, you can do whatever you want."
After speaking, Angel walked forward directly.
He was really too lazy to argue over such a small issue.
However, Angel stopped walking for a few minutes because he vaguely heard someone breathing.
After everyone followed, they also noticed the low breathing sound.
They looked at each other, neither of them spoke, but communicated in the spiritual tether.
Kael: "It seems to be coming from the wall next to this building, right? There is someone behind here who seems to be injured? Is it someone from the Traveling Merchant Organization?"
Doakes: "Psychic power cannot penetrate, so can it smash through walls?"
Angel: "...can't."
After a pause, Angel said: "It's not that simple to pass through the wall with the magic energy array. It's still unknown whether there are people or monsters behind. Don't worry about him, let's continue moving forward."
This place is obviously in a maze. If it is really an injured person, they can save it if they can still encounter it. But Angel feels that it is unlikely that it is a human being. The monsters in the underground maze are no better than
