Everyone looked at the box in the puppet's hand in confusion. They thought it was some kind of weapon before, but it turned out to be a ticket box?
Why did the originally dark and dangerous painting style suddenly start to become absurd?
"How are you sure this is the conductor?" Doakes hesitated for a moment and then asked.
"Simple reasoning." After Angel finished speaking, he pointed to the stairs behind the alchemy puppet: "You may think there are stairs over there, but in fact those stairs are all projections. If you don't believe it, you can feel it yourself."
"...It is indeed a projection." Doakes said after sensing it.
"We've already come here, but suddenly a projected staircase appears. Don't you think it's weird? Besides, there's a puppet holding a box, like a conductor. Isn't the answer immediately deduced?"
Doakes looked at Angel's natural look, and his expression became even more confused: "Did you skip hundreds of millions of steps? Why do you think it looks like a conductor?"
Doakes's question was also everyone's doubt. They also didn't understand that holding a box was the conductor? There was obviously a flaw in this logic.
Angel saw that everyone couldn't understand the connection, and he himself felt confused. Isn't this a very clear logic?
After hesitating for a moment, Angel hesitated and said: "Haven't you ever been to Mangshi Magic Material Street?"
"Mangshi Magic Material Street? Does it sound familiar?" Vai touched his chin, looking thoughtful.
Kael also felt like he had heard it somewhere, but he just couldn't remember it.
At this time, the Black Earl spoke up to help everyone clear up their confusion: "Mangshi Magic Material Street is located in Sky Mechanical City. In the alchemy world, it is also called the Alchemy Road, because it not only sells magic materials, but also sells Axi.
Most of the alchemical works produced by Lie."
"It's normal that you feel unfamiliar. Because that street has its own rules. If you are not qualified to enter, you can't even see the street."
"As for the so-called qualifications, one is strength and the other is alchemy ability."
"In addition, after entering this street, it is not so casual if you want to go to the store to buy alchemy works. Each store has its own rules, and you must comply with their rules before you can enter it."
"As for the specific rules, basically every store is different and there is no unified standard. However, if you are an alchemist, you can basically enter every store."
After listening to the Black Earl's explanation, everyone thought of the name of Mangshi Magic Material Street, but they still didn't understand what Angel meant.
Doakes: "Does Mons Magic Street have anything to do with what you're talking about?"
At this time, the voice of the Black Earl sounded again: "Probably because most of the shops on Mangshi Magic Material Street have alchemy puppets at the door. These alchemy puppets are usually waiters, and they are also the ticket sellers who will determine whether you are qualified to enter?"
Angel nodded and agreed: "Sure enough, Lord Black Earl has experience. Yes, that's what I mean."
The Black Earl sighed: "Not everyone has been to Mangshi Magic Material Street."
Angel said in a hesitant tone: "Even if you have never been to Mangshi Magic Material Street, you should be able to relate it. The alchemy streets in other extraordinary cities should be similar, right?"
The Black Earl looked at Angel with a profound look and did not answer.
On the contrary, Doakes said in a strange tone: "The only extraordinary city you have been to is...Sky Mechanical City, right?"
Angel was stunned for a moment.
Doakes's strange tone and the Black Earl's eyes full of meaning both secretly told Angel the fact: other extraordinary cities are completely different from Mons Magic Street in Sky Mechanical City.
Angel's throat moved, he turned his head and coughed twice: "How could it be? I've been to quite a few extraordinary cities, but I don't go to the Alchemy Street very often."
Doakes squinted: "For example?"
The corners of Angel's eyes moved and he said softly: "It's like, the city that never sleeps."
"Before it was covered by a dome, the Sleepless City of the Kingdom of Eternal Night was not only a huge wizard organization, but also an extraordinary city." Doakes: "You have been to the Sleepless City, why don't you go to the Alchemy Street?
?”
Angel: "When I went there... there was already a dome."
Everyone: "..."
Doakes: "How did you get in with the dome?"
Angel: "I walked in."
"...Then how did you get out? According to rumors, in the Sleepless City now, there is no return. In the past few years that I have been running the Cross Tavern, I have never heard of anyone being able to get out of it." Doc.
Si looked at Angel in surprise.
Angel: "How did you get out? You got out."
Doakes: "..."
Angel: "However, I was not the only one at that time, my mentor Sanders was also there."
When Angel said this, Doakes automatically entered a mental state. It was probably Sanders who brought Angel out.
Doakes: "Okay, I've told you about the City that never sleeps. What about the City that never sleeps?"
Angel lowered his eyebrows, and his thoughts were flowing rapidly... He really hadn't been to many extraordinary cities, but he had been to a lot of wizard fairs.
Even though some wizard markets are comparable in size to extraordinary cities, they are not extraordinary cities after all.
After a few seconds, Angel said: "There are many more, such as Ash Earth Rock, Sky Island, Watch Fortress, Rasudlan, Ancient Acropolis... and so on."
Of the names Angel mentioned, they had heard of the first three, and they were all frontline stations in the abyss. It wasn't right to say it was a wizard's market, but it seemed a bit wrong to say it was a supernatural city.
"The first few are considered extraordinary cities, but isn't Rasudran the city of demons? Also, what the hell is the Ancient Acropolis?"
Angel: "It's an extraordinary city anyway, why do you care so much. The most important thing now is the matter in front of you, not my experience. What's more, I don't need to give you popular science."
After Angel finished speaking, he quickly changed the subject and said: "Back to the topic, in addition to my previous inference, there is another very important point that supports my inference."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Angel pointed to the floor at the feet of the alchemy puppet and the hands of the alchemy puppet: "These two places have magic patterns and are linked. As long as you understand
With some knowledge of magic patterns and interpretation, you can understand the function of the alchemy puppet."
Doakes: "...You can actually say this reason from the beginning."
This evidence is obviously more weighty, and the inference is just like a joke.
Everyone's thoughts were similar to Doakes's. However, Angel still felt that his inference was more important. It was precisely because of the relevant guesses that he could understand it faster when observing the magic patterns later.
However, Angel did not argue with Doakes about this issue. As he said, instead of focusing on how to get the answer, what is more important now is how can they leave this platform after having the answer?
"Actually, we don't have to follow the rules, right? Even if the stairs are phantoms, we can still follow the phantoms and fly to the end." Doakes put forward his own idea.
However, as soon as Doakes finished speaking, the Black Earl said: "There is a dangerous smell in the void."
Angel also said at this time: "Even if you put aside the danger lurking in the void, are you really sure that you can fly to the end by following the shadows? Maybe these shadows themselves are misleading."
"So, we have no other choice now but to leave this platform through this alchemy puppet."
Kael: "Then what we should consider now is how to buy a ticket to pass the customs?"
"If there is a ticket box, do we need to use magic crystals to buy tickets to pass the customs?" Vai asked.
When Doakes heard that he wanted to spend magic crystals, he subconsciously took a step back.
Angel glanced at him, and Doakes immediately said: "I didn't bring too many magic crystals when I came out this time, so..."
Doakes hesitated to speak, his eyes kept glancing at Angel's bracelet, and occasionally he would wink at her.
Angel said speechlessly: "Are you so sure it's a magic crystal?"
"If it's not a magic crystal, what could it be?" Dox asked blankly.
Angel: "You can find out if you go and ask."
"Ask?" Everyone was stunned. Before they understood the meaning of this sentence, Angel quickly walked out of the mobile illusion and came to the alchemy puppet.
The moment Angel came out of the illusion, the dull and lifeless eyes of the alchemy puppet began to glow with a faint dark red light.
"Induction start is a very primitive mechanical start method. However, the induction speed is quite fast. Even in today's Ashley's assessment, this induction speed can still get high scores." Angel said.
Looking at the alchemy puppet, he explained to everyone in the spiritual belt.
Click, click—
After the red light flashed in the eyes, a clicking sound was heard from the inside of the alchemy puppet. It was obvious that it had entered the "activation" stage.
One second, two seconds...it wasn't until five seconds later that the clicking sound ended.
"Although the startup time is very slow, considering the erosion of time, this startup speed has exceeded my imagination. The refiner is not very good in mechanical attainments, but the attainments in magic patterns are quite good."
When Angel made comments in his mind, the alchemy puppet also raised its head and stared at Angel with red light.
About two seconds later, the red light began to flash, followed by a series of mechanical sounds that reached everyone's ears.
"The face is not recorded, he is not a researcher, he is not a prison officer, and he has no criminal record."
"Tentative identity: civilian."
"Manipulation authority, none."
After saying these words, the alchemy puppet stopped talking and stood blankly in front of the stairs.
"Didn't you say he was a conductor?" Doakes wondered in the psychic belt: "You must have made a mistake in your judgment, right?"
Angel ignored Doakes and said directly to the alchemy puppet: "If I want to go there, what conditions need to be met?"
The alchemy puppet's eyes glowed dark red again, and after two seconds of flashing, a familiar mechanical voice came.
"Please show your pass or pay the toll."
When the alchemy puppet said these words, everyone's expressions became strange.
When Angel said it was the conductor, they were actually suspicious, but Angel was a professional in alchemy and magic patterns after all, so it was hard for them to refute him face to face.
Anyway, you will know if this alchemy puppet is a conductor or not if you try it.
When the alchemy puppet spoke at first, they thought it was a professional gatekeeper who even had a face record. Therefore, they did not believe it was the so-called conductor.
But when Angel said he wanted to go there, the alchemy puppet's tone changed.
The first sentence, "Please show your pass," is quite normal. It is understandable that such an important area requires a pass to enter.
But the second sentence, "or pay tolls", changes the meaning.
The first sentence sounds like a cold-blooded guard, while the latter sentence turns into a mole who accepts bribes.
These are two extreme contrasts. Even an experienced boss like the Black Earl was confused for a moment.
"I didn't expect that it was really... the conductor." Doakes said, "Why is that?"
Not to mention that Doakes couldn't figure it out, no one else could figure it out.
At this time, Angel asked again: "If you choose to pay tolls, what will be the criteria?"
This sentence once again triggered the feedback of the alchemy puppet. With the intelligence of this alchemy puppet, it is difficult to answer fluently with Angel. The current situation is obviously because the refiner has set the answer to this question in advance.
"Send your treasure to the Box of Sisia, and it will naturally judge whether your toll is up to standard."
"The Box of Sicia?" Angel cast his eyes on the box in the hand of the alchemy puppet with doubts.
He didn't pay much attention to this box before and just thought it was a ticket box. But now it seems that he made a mistake. This is not only a ticket box, it also has the effect of identifying treasures?
However, it is actually difficult to determine the value of things like treasures.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Just like Jon once said, "A is honey, B is arsenic." Many so-called treasures have other added values. This is judged as
It is difficult to achieve unified standards.
For example, even if a painting by a magic painting wizard is just a painting without any extraordinary power, its value will not be low. This is because the magic painting wizard himself gives the painting additional value.
Therefore, it was hard for Angel to imagine that this Sisian box could judge whether tolls met the standard?
"Or is it that this Scythian Box requires specific treasures to be screened?"
Angel informed everyone of his doubts.
The Black Earl pondered for a moment and said: "Appraisal-type alchemy tools? This is indeed rare. I haven't heard of it for many years, but I have a vague impression. Thousands of years ago, there was a prophetic wizard who seemed to combine prophecy and refining.
I bought an alchemy item with similar effects."
The Black Earl's words made Angel suddenly understand. Judging the value of treasures is indeed very idealistic, but with the help of prophecy, it is not impossible to do the appraisal.
In other words, appraisal-type alchemy tools basically contain prophecy properties. Otherwise, it would be difficult to judge the value of the treasure.
Earl Black: "However, as far as I know, that item is not called the Box of Sithia. Moreover, its identification effect is not very good."
After finishing speaking, everyone looked at the box in the hands of the alchemy puppet with some thoughts.
Although the Black Earl said that the alchemy item was not very effective, but even so, as long as the Box of Sithia is really an appraisal-type alchemy item, it should be valuable, right?
Angel could guess what everyone was thinking from their expressions even if they didn't express it verbally.
He thought for a while and said: "Although I can't be sure whether the Box of Sisia is connected to the magic energy array, what I can confirm is that the alchemy puppet itself is connected to the magic energy array in this alien space."
In other words, it is best not to mess with this alchemy puppet in this alien space.
"Of course, if any of you are determined to grab the Box of Scythia, I believe you should have thought of a countermeasure. Whether you can succeed or not, I don't care; however, it is best to wait until we leave here, you
Let’s do it again.” Although Angel’s words did not identify who it was, everyone turned their attention to Doakes.
Doakes: "You must be sure that I want to rob you?"
Seeing that the others didn't answer, Doakes snorted coldly, turned around and came to Vai's side, and then took the red sword and cut a cut on his index finger.
When the blood seeped out, Doakes said quickly: "Quick, help me smell it."
Before Vai could speak, he heard the Black Earl say calmly: "The shadow of death shrouds the choices in your heart."
Dox was stunned for a moment: "Sir, did you use the smell of death?"
"if not?"
"My lord, have you really smelled that I am enveloped by the shadow of death?"
The Black Earl said calmly: "Believe it or not, it's up to you."
The Black Earl finished speaking and ignored Doakes. Doakes stood there in a daze for a long time, his face turning blue and white. Finally, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, raised his head and said to everyone: "I'm not planning to rob him."
Don't slander me about the Box of Scythia. I, I am prepared to follow you to the end."
Everyone: "..."
Angel is also a little speechless towards Doakes, but these days, he has become accustomed to his shamelessness and is too lazy to complain about him.
"Put aside the irrelevant matters for the time being." Angel said, "Whether the Box of Sicia is exactly the kind of alchemy tool with prophetic properties that Lord Black Earl mentioned, you will know if you try it."
As for what to try with? There is no doubt that I will definitely try the magic crystal first.
