The wise master also heard the deliberate ambiguity in Angel's words, but he did not pay attention to it, and instead talked about an unrelated matter: "I am very interested in the source of your intelligence, would you like to communicate with me?
"
Angel: "After communicating with you, can you let us go? Well, I mean, you won't hurt us, let us go in and out smoothly, and then leave."
Wise man: "Everything is negotiable, as long as you can meet the corresponding conditions."
"If you say it, you haven't said it yet." Angel deliberately complained softly, and then said loudly: "Then what conditions do we have to meet?"
Wise Man: "Answer my question."
Angel and the wise man looked at each other for a few seconds, then said directly: "Okay."
Wise man: "Why don't you discuss it with your companions? Maybe, I also have questions to ask them?"
Angelhun said nonchalantly: "When you want to ask them, just ask them directly."
Angel knew very well that the wise man would never give up observing other people's reactions, nor would he completely believe Angel's words. The wise man even had doubts about whether Angel was of the Noah family.
Therefore, as long as Angel discusses with other people, wise men can interpret more information through observation.
But Angel didn't discuss it at all. It seemed that the team was completely dictated by him, which made the wise man wonder: Is Angel really their decision-maker? Or have they already discussed countermeasures before, how to deal with themselves?
But if they really want to discuss countermeasures in advance, they must know their own personalities extremely well, and not everyone knows this information.
Even Sisia couldn't have predicted his behavior so accurately.
So, is this illusion wizard really a decision-maker?
The wise man had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but he didn't show it at all. He didn't even pause at all. He turned to look at the others: "Are you sure you all want to listen to him?"
The wise man looked at each one, not to mention the two apprentices, who definitely had no right to speak. What he mainly looked at was Doakes and the strange nose.
The nose on the stone board did not respond, but this attitude was considered by the wise as acquiescence that Angel was the master.
But Doakes had some reactions that made the wise man find it interesting.
"His opinions do not represent my opinions." Doakes raised his eyebrows.
The wise man looked back at Angel: "It seems that your teammates are not completely convinced by you. Are you sure you don't want to discuss it with them?"
Before Angel could answer, Doakes took the lead and said: "What do I mean by being dissatisfied with him? I can't have my own opinions? Moreover, what he just said is that if you want to ask us questions, you can ask him directly."
I’ve said so, you can ask me if you want, if you have any questions for me, you can just say it, don’t go around.”
Angel originally wanted to express a similar meaning, but Doakes said it for him, so he was happy and relaxed.
However, Angel could also guess that the wise man must also understand the truth of what Doakes said. He deliberately distorted the meaning of his words simply to see if they were really on the same page.
This was a very obvious provocation, and Doakes jumped out on his own initiative.
Angel couldn't predict whether Doakes's jumping out would be a good thing or a bad thing. However, Doakes understood that he was currently in a stalemate and passive position, so he took the initiative to jump out. He should have his own ideas.
Maybe his inspiration made him do this?
Even if the talent of inspiration has not been restored, inspiration is inherently mysterious, and it is possible for the soul to be blessed.
Just like Dotolo, he couldn't see the end of Angel's trip, but even if the prophecy failed, Dotolo simply relied on the echo from his heart and gave the answer "A wise man is not stupid".
This is also a kind of "mystery". It's hard to explain, and it can't be said to be an ability, but it pops up occasionally and guides you in the right direction.
Because of this, Angel didn't care that Doakes jumped out and became a new object of observation by the wise man.
Although Doakes was not very reliable at certain times, but now under the pressure of the wise master, when his life may be threatened, Doakes still dares to jump out, then Angel is willing to trust him.
The wise man looked at Doakes: "Okay, let me ask you a question first. Can you tell me whether what he said is true?"
The wise man pointed to Angel.
Doakes: "What did he say? Those words before?"
Wise man: "I won't mention the previous one. What I want you to answer is every word I say to him next."
What Angel said before was ambiguous and could be true or false. Therefore, there is no need to mention the before. If you want to mention it, just mention the after.
Doakes was stunned for a moment: "You mean, every time you say something, I have to judge it?"
Wise man: "It can be understood this way, are you willing?"
Doakes: "Yes, yes, but if I don't know how to answer."
The wise man smiled and said, "You can answer whatever you want."
Angel's emotions leaked very little, but Doakes' emotions were very obvious. No matter how Doakes answered, a wise man could find some clues.
Doakes scratched his head and muttered: "Why do you feel so slighted?"
The wise man smiled and did not talk to Doakes anymore. Instead, he looked at Angel: "Now, are you ready to communicate with me?"
"Yes, but communication and questioning are different." Angel looked at the wise man.
Wise man: "I understand that since it is communication, there must be back and forth. I can also tell you what you want to know."
The wise man's behavior seems grand, but in fact, in Angel's opinion, it is just the same thing.
A wise man is not stupid, and he cannot do anything that is completely useless. For Angel, he can also analyze many clues from his questions.
Angel: "Let's get started. Or do you want me to answer the question you asked before, my source of intelligence?"
The wise man nodded.
Angel: "I don't know what intelligence source you are asking about. Is it about the ancestors of Noah, or something else?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wise man: "Since you know Augustine, it makes sense for you to come here, so this is not what I am concerned about. What I want to know is, where did you start from?
Where do you know my information?"
The words of the wise man actually gave a very key message. Augustine, the ancestor of Noah, must be related to the destination. Everyone present can hear this.
However, there is actually no need for the wise man to tell this information. He must have other purposes for taking the initiative to tell it.
His purpose can actually be guessed, which is to test everyone in the team's understanding of the goal of the trip.
Angel didn't look at other people's reactions, but he could guess that Vai and Kael would be slightly surprised. The Black Earl wouldn't show his emotions. Well, Doakes... Angel couldn't predict it.
Angel: "I learned the information about you from Zhou's mouth."
The wise man did not respond immediately, but turned to look at Doakes.
Doakes nodded at the right time: "Yes, it was the first day to tell us that you are the wise master."
The wise man could easily judge that Doakes... was not lying.
But who is Zhou?
The wise man raised this question, but he did not ask Angel, but Doakes directly.
Doakes looked suspicious: "You don't know the day? Isn't it one of your people?"
Our man? When the wise man was confused, Doakes directly pointed out that Hiroshi was the curled-horned half-blood demon in the third slit.
The wise man immediately understood: "So it is it? Is it the one who told you that it is called day?"
Doakes nodded: "Yes, listen to the wise man, could it have deceived us and used a false name?"
The wise man did not answer Doakes' words, but frowned and thought for a while, then turned to look at Angel: "It's your turn to ask."
Angel: "I thought you would continue to ask what Zhou told us."
Wise man: "What it knows, I know. What it doesn't know, I also know."
Angel: "Since the wise man said so, does the wise man know why its name is day?"
The wise man choked suddenly...he really didn't know this.
After Angel asked this question with a smile, he did not give the wise man time to respond, so he changed the topic: "I asked this question for fun, it is a personal question, and the wise man does not know the circumstances are excusable. Can I change the question?"
"
"Okay." The wise man saw that Angel wanted to control the rhythm of his speech, but that didn't matter to him. Rather than this, he actually wanted to ask if Angel knew about the half-blood demon with curly horns, so why did he say this?
Are you a day person?
Because Angel's question just now had a very strong questioning tone, and he was obviously telling the wise man that he knew why day was called day.
The wise man felt a little itchy in his heart and wanted to ask, but he didn't want to follow Angel's rhythm. He could control the rhythm, but he didn't want to deviate from it.
Angel: "How many questions do I need to answer to meet the conditions you set?"
Wise man: "Answering my question is only one of the conditions. Moreover, it is not a necessary condition."
"Then why do I continue to answer your questions? Why don't you just tell me the necessary conditions?"
Wise Man: "Although it is not a necessary condition, it is a bonus."
"What's the meaning?"
"After completing the necessary conditions, I can let you pass through my hall and let you search for Augustine's legacy."
"But if you go there, the result may not be good."
"What you mentioned before, 'I will let you go and allow you to return safely and smoothly', can only satisfy the first half. I cannot guarantee the 'safe and smooth' second half."
When Angel heard this, he roughly understood what the wise man meant: "So, answering your question is a bonus. Can you guarantee our safe and smooth return?"
Wise Man: "I can't guarantee it, but I won't stop you from leaving my hall. If necessary, I can also take a nap and close the hall."
These words of a wise man are full of profound meaning.
Basically, he throws the truth directly in everyone's face: the destination you are looking for is very dangerous. Moreover, there are existences that you cannot deal with. As long as the bonus conditions are met, he can help them escape the danger as appropriate.
Angel: "It's your turn to ask... By the way, this is a question, right?"
The wise man nodded indifferently: "Okay."
Angel: "That's pretty good. If you're like Miss Sisia, who insists on answering every question one by one, then I'll feel uncomfortable."
Wise Man: “My second question, what did Sisia say to you?”
A wise man is not stupid either. He knew that Angel deliberately revealed Sicia.
However, even if Angel didn't tell anyone about Sisia, he would still ask about Sisia, because the location where they appeared meant that they would definitely meet Sisia.
Therefore, the wise man followed Angel's words and asked further.
Angel: "I've talked a lot, and I don't know where to start. Alas, I can't help it. I asked too many questions. It will probably take a long time to finish them all. After all, I have been in her box.
It’s close to an hour.”
The wise man knew that there was an acceleration of thoughts in Sicia's box. If it was really an hour, it meant that Angel and Sicia talked for nearly a day.
So good at chatting? Xixia is still willing to chat with him?
The wise man turned to look at Doakes with doubts.
Doakes nodded: "Yes, almost an hour."
Did you really stay for an hour?! The wise man always felt strange, but he could also sense that Doakes was not lying.
While the wise man was struggling, Angel secretly praised Doakes in his heart. Doakes just jumped out and really muddied the water.
The muddier the water, the more problems a wise man will think about. Worrying too much will bring the wise man closer to the truth, but it will also make the wise man ignore details more.
In fact, what Angel doesn't care about the most is the truth, and what he doesn't want the wise men to know the most are some details, such as the nightmare world, the wilderness of dreams, etc...
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Therefore, the murky the water, the more he can hide these details.
Doakes jumped out this time. Could it be that he was really blessed?
Angel: "Are you sure you want to start from the beginning, Master of Wisdom? Or should I just talk about those things that are related to Master of Wisdom?"
The wise master could vaguely sense that Angel should have talked about some very secret things with Sicia, and Angel's current behavior seemed to be that he wanted to hide these things...
The wise man was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, just talk about things related to me."
The wise man did not acquiesce to Angel's concealment, but he thought about it and concluded that what Angel wanted to conceal should be some secrets that Sicia told him, or in other words, Sicia's true identity.
Regarding the secrets of Xisiya, the wise man actually knows a little bit about it, and can be sure that it has nothing to do with Narok City or Augustine... because the incident with Augustin happened after Xisiya transformed into a casket.
Since it has nothing to do with it, it’s okay not to ask.
Moreover, he didn't want to waste time. If he was really curious, at worst, he would ask Xicia directly after this.
The wise man considered the issue very comprehensively, but he missed one detail: Angel was having one-on-one communication with Sicia.
The process of information exchange is called communication. Therefore, it is not necessarily Sicia who exported secrets to Angel. It is also possible that Angel exported secrets to Sicia that he wanted to conceal.
If the wise man knew that the person in front of him was Angel, one of the most dazzling supernovas in the Southern Territory, then he would most likely consider both directions. But he did not know that the red-haired man covered by layers of illusions was Angel.
,So, based on the logic of universality, he ignored this.
The wise men are using information asymmetry to deal with them. Angel, the wise men, and the Noah family actually also have information asymmetry. So they can also use this in turn to deceive the wise men.
However, only irrelevant details can be deceived, while the main axis is difficult to conceal.
If everything can be completely deceived by Angel, then the wise man should not be called a wise man, but simply a fool.
