Although the Black Earl said so, everyone was actually very curious about this ancestor of the Noah family.
What on earth did you do that you can’t talk about at all?
Everyone looked at Zhou, trying to understand Zhou's eyes. But... Zhou's eyes showed nothing but coldness.
In fact, they didn't know that besides Tian, there was one person present who knew the reason.
That is Angel.
Angel knew very well why Zhou didn't dare to mention that person's name. After all, that Noah ancestor was the guy who dared to fall in love with Franklin's daughter.
This is a gossip about the boss's daughter. As a guard on the prison ladder, how dare Hiru to leak it?
"Since it's inconvenient to disclose information about this Noah tribesman, let me change the question..." Angel thought for a while: "There is a ladder to the prison ahead, right?"
Zhou glanced coldly: "You still need to ask me this question? The answer is already obvious."
Zhou didn't answer directly, probably because of the contract. However, it was basically certain from his tone that the ladder to the prison was ahead.
"If you have any questions, please ask quickly. I'm a little tired and want to go back to the candlestick to rest."
Everyone looked at Xiao silently. He didn't do anything, so he was tired?
"Isn't this guy's perfunctory behavior too obvious?" Doakes said in the psychic belt: "I really want to give him a sword."
Angel: "If you want to resist the backlash of the magic energy array alone, just do it."
Doakes immediately stopped talking.
Angel: "You don't have to worry about his current attitude. He won't leave until we finish asking questions. He is just mentally unbalanced now and is deliberately trying to take advantage of Joe."
To put it bluntly, I just feel that I behaved too badly in front of the gate of dreams, and now I have to put on a high profile and save some face. It is commonly known as tsundere.
Doakes said with deep meaning: "It seems that your secret conversation just now gave you a deeper understanding of him?"
Angel looked at Doakes speechlessly. He said something here and there, didn't he just want to satisfy his curiosity and know the content of the conversation? Faced with this situation, the best way to deal with it is,
Just ignore it.
Angel bypassed Doakes directly and continued to face the day.
This time, Angel did not ask questions directly, but presented the fountain statue of a urinating child in front of Hiru in the form of an illusion.
As Zhou looked at the illusion in front of him, a trace of complicated emotions flashed through his eyes. He seemed to be nostalgic, but also emotional.
"Do you know this statue?" Angel said directly in a determined tone without asking any questions.
Day: "I know it, but most of it was destroyed thousands of years ago, and now it's impossible to put the original shape back together. I didn't expect that I would see its complete picture again in this way. To be honest, you know the hanging prison
I'm not surprised that you know the name of that person, but I'm surprised that you were able to reproduce the entire statue of the Angel of Punishment."
"So, you want to ask me now, how do I know the origin of the statue of the 'Angel of Punishment'?" Angel didn't know that it was the Angel of Punishment before, but Zhou's words revealed some interesting information.
"I won't ask, there's no need." After Zhou finished speaking, he said in a pointed tone: "There are many people who have secrets, but there are very few who can keep them."
Angel: "Although I don't think it's a secret, if you say it is, then so be it. Back to the topic, is this statue in the front?"
Day: "I can't answer directly. But you should know the answer."
"Then let me ask in a different way. Is this question a repeat of the previous question?" Angel's previous question asked whether the prison ladder was in front. If the statue is also in front now, then
They didn't go the wrong way.
Day: "Yes."
Angel: "There should be another way to get to that statue, right? I mean, it's not the way we are taking now."
Day: "Although this question is already a bit peripheral, since you already know the location of the prison ladder, I think I should be able to tell you."
"Yes, there is indeed another way."
Angel quickly asked: "Is that road collapsed?"
Zhou narrowed his eyes and asked instead, "Are you planning to go that way?"
Angel was about to answer, but Zhou took the lead and said: "Forget it, don't ask, it has nothing to do with me where you are going. However, I can remind you that you may have to face a person if you take that road.
A very, very strong presence.”
Angel: “Can you elaborate?”
Zhou: "Do you think the road leading to the prison ladder is safe? Although that road is remote, many people know about it, but even ten thousand years ago, few people dared to walk that road.
"
"Is it because of the powerful existence you mentioned?"
Day nodded.
"In terms of wizard level, how strong is he? Also, tens of thousands of years have passed, are you sure he is still there and has not been eliminated by the Forerunners?" Angel asked.
"Its strength does not lie in its own strength, but in this place." Zhou pointed at the brain.
"Also, I can reveal that it is actually a master, an existence that has reached the top with wisdom." Zhou paused: "As for you asking if he is still there, I can tell you clearly that he is definitely still there.
"
Angel noticed that when Hiru spoke of this being, he did not use a human pronoun, but a general name. This meant that the other person was most likely not a human being.
"Why are you so sure? Is it bound by the magic energy array just like you?"
Day: "I can't tell you the answer, but it is not bound. Occasionally it will leave the place where it lives. If you are lucky, you might not have to face it."
Hiroshi's words revealed an important piece of information. This is a being that can move around. The most important thing is that it is very powerful and has not died yet.
"Do you think our team can handle it?" Angel discussed with everyone in the psychic belt and asked.
"Probably not."
Tian didn't give an absolute answer, maybe this is a hint?
"Then is there any way we can communicate with it and get its consent to make way for it?" Angel proposed another possibility.
"It depends on whether there is anyone among you who can make it willing to communicate. Friendly reminder, other idiots behind you, except for that stone slab, will never get the chance to communicate with it."
Angel had always thought that Zhou hadn't noticed the Black Earl, but now it seemed that he had actually known about it for a long time.
"If we want to fight, how should we deal with it? If we want to communicate with it, what should we talk about?" Angel and the Black Earl discussed it and asked.
"When it comes to fighting, I don't know, and I definitely can't tell you if I know it. When it comes to communication, I don't know either, but do we have to deliberately find topics for communication between wise men? Any topic can be discussed naturally."
"Remember, don't be fooled by its appearance. It is far smarter than you think."
Judging from Zhou's tone, this "wise man" might be an ugly guy?
"I heard that the 'Basket Witch' Xia Lu and the 'Grafting Crazy' Donla both issued a reward to find a lost ancient ethnic group. It is said that this ethnic group is very ugly in appearance, but it is very, very special.
Smart. Could the guy Zhou was talking about be this ancient ethnic group?" Vai suddenly said.
"I've never heard of it... How could you, a person who doesn't leave the house every day, know about such a thing?" Doakes asked doubtfully.
Vai: "Don't underestimate me, I also have my own intelligence sources."
When Doakes was confused, the Black Earl said: "The tea party is a good place for information exchange."
Although the Black Earl just said such a sentence lightly and did not refer to anything in particular, the eyes of everyone looking at Vai changed instantly.
There is no doubt that Vai is a man. The tea party is a gathering place for witches, and men are absolutely prohibited from entering.
The only way to enter the tea party is to become a woman. Of course, the wizard does not need to be permanently cured, but can use transfiguration, because transfiguration is the least likely to be seen through.
Seeing the strange looks in everyone's eyes, Vai quickly said: "It's not me, I've never been to a tea party. It's my maid!"
"Maid?" Everyone still expressed doubts.
When Vai saw this, he simply broke the pot and said, "What if I really went to the tea party? I don't care about other people, but I don't believe you, Doakes, will not go to the Savage Cave to attend the tea party!"
A large group of people who turn into women to attend tea parties are wandering wizards.
Forget about an ordinary tea party. At a large tea party, there will inevitably be a lot of witches with strange faces.
Of course, some wizards are very well prepared and often transform into witches and walk as women. After they have gained a certain reputation, the possibility of being exposed is much less.
The above words were all heard by Vai from the Black Earl. Therefore, Vai has always deeply doubted whether his master once had a witch vest, but now that he was standing at the top, the witch accidentally "disappeared"
"Jade is dead".
Doakes: "Don't accuse me falsely, I won't go."
Vai: "I don't believe it."
After finishing speaking, Vai turned to look at Angel: "Master Chao Dimension, this tea party will be held in the Savage Cave. Please check it carefully and don't let anyone sneak in."
Someone, Doakes, was already sweating on his back, and he glanced at Angel secretly.
Angel looked at Doakes with a smile: "If it is Your Excellency Hongjian, I believe I will not admit my mistake."
Doakes: "We are friends, there is no need to be so harsh... Ahem, I am not talking about tea parties, I am saying that there is no need to be so harsh in normal times."
Angel smiled and said nothing.
At this time, the Black Earl who started this topic redirected the topic on the right track: "What Vai said is indeed possible. Donla and Shalu are both Karabit people. The Karabit people lived thousands of years ago.
In nursery rhymes, it is said that they have the blood of wise men in their bodies, and this wise man refers to that ancient ethnic group."
"There are many relics that prove that this ancient ethnic group existed. However, because this ethnic group was so ugly, the Karabit people revised the nursery rhyme and deleted the part about the blood of the wise men in their bodies."
When Angel heard this, he silently said in his heart: This is so realistic...
"The specific name of this ancient ethnic group has not been translated into the common language of the mainland and needs to be read in Karabit. Moreover, their name has been iterated several times. At first, it roughly meant 'shrewd wise men', but now it has become 'short and concise'.
's wise man'."
"Because their appearance is very short, only their heads are bigger."
"This ethnic group has not been found alive in the Southern Territory so far. But listening to Zhou's words just now, it may be possible that they are this ethnic group."
After the Black Earl finished explaining, Angel did not hesitate and turned directly to Zhou and asked: "About how tall is it?"
Zhou glanced at Angel suspiciously: "Are you guessing its race? Stop guessing. You can't guess it. You will be surprised when you see it."
"So, is it taller or shorter than me?" Angel asked persistently.
"I can't say, but I can tell you that there is reproductive isolation between your species and its species. To put it simply, it's because the sizes don't match."
There is no need to explain what size it is.
But it's hard to say whether it's humans who are bigger or it's bigger.
Zhou looked at Angel with a troubled face and couldn't help but said: "Why do you have to go that way? If you want to explore the prison ladder, you can still take the current path when you come back. There is no need to gamble your luck on the other side.
.And there's nothing good over there...unless you go and rob that one."
"If you really want to rob that place, you will definitely have a good harvest, because the most abundant things there are books. And books mean knowledge... But, do you really have the guts to rob it?"
After Zhou said these words, everyone was silent. After all, they still didn't know who the other party was, but with Zhou's reminder like this, it was obvious that the other party was not easy to get along with.
It's scary to think that an old monster that has lived for thousands of years can still roam around in the magic energy array.
Everyone can only look at Angel. After all, Angel needs to make a decision on where to go next. Maybe Angel knows other ways and doesn't need to go through that existence?
While everyone was waiting, Angel was thinking about another question.
Hiroshi said that the thing that that being had most was books... If he remembered correctly, walking that road in the Nightmare Realm, the only place with bookshelves that he encountered was in a huge hall.
Angel thought for a while and said softly: "Three eyes."
Zhou's head immediately turned around and looked at Angel with suspicious eyes: "You..."
From Zhou's reaction, Angel knew that he had guessed correctly. The blue-skinned giant in the hall in the nightmare world, the three-eyed blue devil, really corresponded to that existence in reality.
However, the blue-skinned giant in the nightmare world is not very strong. In reality, according to Hiroshi, he should be so strong that he can explode.
To reach the position of dominance with such a race, this person is indeed extremely talented.
Angel: "Does it like alchemy?"
Zhou looked suspicious: "Since you know it, why did you ask me before?"
Angel: "I just suddenly remembered some... bad memories."
When Angel said these words, he also said to everyone in the spiritual belt: "I will explain to you later. I probably know what that existence is."
Zhou did not ask Angel what bad memories he recalled, but answered Angel's previous question: "I don't know if it likes alchemy, but it does know how to alchemy, and its level is very high. In addition to alchemy
, it is also good at many other skills, and it is not called wise for nothing."
"A wise man who has been around for thousands of years and knows alchemy and other skills, do you really want to face him?"
Angel really couldn't answer this question for the moment. If it was true as Zhou said, then they might be facing an all-powerful opponent.
The sub-projects of alchemy include magic potions, magic patterns, machinery, equipment, etc. Just a little arrangement is enough to give people a headache.
Just like the bottle of mushroom potion that Angel threw at the princess's castle, he only used a bottle of magic potion that made mushrooms grow continuously and drove the princess crazy. And what they have to face may be something bigger than mushrooms.
Potions A scarier and more elusive potion.
The magic potion is only one part of it, and the magic patterns have not been included yet... Speaking of the magic patterns, Angel suddenly had a guess in his mind. The other party can move around at will in the underground magic energy array. Could it be that this
The magic energy array also has its merits, right?
If this guess is true, it will be even more difficult to deal with.
Angel was already considering giving up this road if it really didn't work. See if he could go through other entrances. He would definitely meet the other party on this road, but not at other entrances.
"I'll stop asking about that person's existence. I'll tell you the details later. Do you have anything else you want to ask?" Angel asked with a spiritual connection.
Angel first looked at Earl Black, who said directly: "What I want to ask, I guess only you can answer me. So, I have no problem now."
Angel pursed his lips and looked at Doakes.
"I have a lot of questions..."
Angel: "It's concise and to the point. I don't have time to ask you questions one by one."
Doakes said quickly: "Help me ask, what is valuable ahead, where is it, and how to get it! If possible, it is best to ask where the remains of the forerunners are."
Angel: As expected of Doakes, it is no longer enough just to covet the treasures of the relics, the wealth of the dead must also be made.
Angel looked at Kael and Vai again.
The two young apprentices did not expect that they would also have the opportunity to ask questions. They were both surprised and moved. Especially Vai, who was already shouting "Long live the idol" in his heart.
There is no doubt that Kael's question is related to history. Angel estimates that Hiroshi will probably not answer it.
As for Vai's question, it's very Vai.
"Sir, can you help me ask, apart from that very powerful existence, are there any other dangers inside? For example, monsters, mechanisms, traps, etc."
This is a very typical Vai-type question. Although it sounds a bit timid, it is not a bad thing to be prepared.
Therefore, the first question Angel raised to Hiru was the question asked by Vai.
