"Since it is based on the time when the contract is formed, I am relieved." Angel said with a look of relief.
Anyway, he has revealed almost everything he should have disclosed before, and Granny Iron Armor has already known his purpose. Even if Angel doesn't say anything later, Granny Iron Armor will understand.
What's more, even if a contract is signed, there are others who can reveal it.
For example, Xicia didn't sign any contract.
There is also Dodoro, who knows about Angel's trip and can use it to make prophecies. Moreover, Sisia can also become the medium for Dodoro's prophecy.
Therefore, to Angel, the third item seems to be the most harsh, but in fact it is the least important.
When Angel breathed a sigh of relief, the wise master was a little confused. He didn't understand why Angel cared about this, it was completely different from what he imagined.
Isn’t it time to ask about the restrictions in Article 3? Isn’t it time to ask why the reward column is blank? Why did you ask an incomprehensible question?
Has he already revealed the information? As soon as this suspicion was born, it was denied by the wise master. Because even he did not know what Angel and the others would face next, and what was the situation in the legacy land? What about the truth about the goddess?
What is it? What could be the secret they hide? All the confidentiality matters that need to be restricted by contracts have not happened yet. How could Angel leak it in advance?
But if that wasn't the case, why would Angel care more about the effective time?
The wise master felt very confused... At this time, his peripheral vision glanced at Doakes on the side. He touched his chin and looked at Angel with a puzzled expression. But soon, he seemed to have thought of something, and there was something in his eyes.
Revealed clearly.
The smile hidden in Doakes' eyes made the wise master "suddenly realize".
Before, Doakes had been saying that Angel had a bad character and was very naughty. At that time, the wise master didn't care after hearing this, because he didn't care much about Angel's character and behavior at that time; now,
Angel must temporarily become the guardian of the wood spirit, and then the wise master will consider Angel's personality.
Doakes is Angel's companion. He must know Angel very well, and when he said Angel's naughty character, he was very sure, as if he had experienced it himself. So what he said should be correct.
Moreover, after knowing Angel's age, the wise master also felt that "naughty" should be placed on Angel's head. After all, young people are often naughty.
So in this case, would it be just a naughty performance by Angel?
Deliberately not asking the right question to express inner dissatisfaction.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is really possible. He has seen Angel's wisdom and agility before; Angel must also be able to see that his expression in the contract is to let him take the initiative to protect the wood spirit through emotional bonds.
.
At the same time, the contract also deliberately left clauses that needed to be supplemented, and Angel must have discovered it.
He was stating his request euphemistically, which gave Angel the capital to "confront", so he used the topic to express his dissatisfaction?
The wise master felt that this possibility was very high, because he could not think of any other reason why Angel's focus was so inconspicuous.
If this guess is correct, the wise master thought about how he should respond...Forget it, he still didn't respond.
Angel expressed his "dissatisfaction" in a measured manner and did not deliberately choose confrontational questions.
Just as the wise master made euphemistic demands in the contract, Angel also used euphemism to protest.
And any protest has a request. Angel's request for protest seems not to be mentioned, but the wise man guessed that he hopes to take a step back? Or increase the reward?
These "requests" are not too much. The wise master thought for a moment. As long as Angel is willing to sign the contract in the end, there is no harm in cooperating. After all, the wood spirit still needs to get close to this golden thigh, so it is considered to be help in advance.
Mu Ling invested.
Thinking of this, the wise master did not show any impatience, but asked gently: "Apart from this, do you have no other doubts? For example, the third one, and for example, why is the punishment so severe?
The reward is blank?"
The wise master chose to take the initiative to ask questions, which can be regarded as accepting Angel's request. He was "aware" and took the initiative to step down.
On the other side, Angel didn't expect that the wise master made up a scene on his own. He also spontaneously entered the acting role, thinking that taking the initiative to step down was a reflection of taking a step back.
From Angel's point of view, even if the wise master did not take the initiative to ask, he would continue to ask. Since the wise master took the initiative to ask, it would at most save his tongue.
Apart from that, Angel didn't feel anything else.
The wise master was completely moved by himself.
Fortunately, no one at the scene could see the inner drama of the wise master, and the wise master himself did not realize what he had done wrong, so everything was still in a very peaceful state.
Angel also followed the wise man's words and replied: "Indeed, these two doubts are also what I want to ask about later."
Hearing Angel's answer, the wise master nodded silently in his heart, and Angel accepted it as he saw fit, which was considered to be "the right way".
Wise Lord: "The third question you have is probably about confidentiality, right?"
Angel nodded, pretending not to hear that the wise master was making his own answer.
"About the scope of confidentiality..." The wise master was halfway through his words when he suddenly paused.
After a few seconds, Angel saw that the wise master remained silent, and then he raised his head and looked. At some point, the wise master took out a pair of strange three-frame glasses, and the lenses on his forehead kept flashing.
The eyes below are unclear. The left and right eyes have a dull and dull look.
Just when Angel was feeling strange, the voice of the Black Earl came from the psychic belt.
"Hey, the entrance of the cave...has disappeared."
Angel was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what Earl Black meant at first, but it took him a while to understand that the entrance of the cave mentioned by Earl Black was referring to the dog hole they encountered on the way here.
Those "dog holes" that are suspected to contain life.
The Black Earl left an olfactory positioning point near these dog holes. It was originally used to observe the situation of the dog holes, but was later used to determine the whereabouts of the traveling merchant organization.
"Which cave entrance has disappeared?" Angel asked, while secretly thinking in his heart, could the disappearance of this dog cave be related to the sudden daze of the wise master?
"All the cave entrances that I have marked before have disappeared," said the Black Earl.
"What does it mean when the entrance to the cave disappears?" Doakes asked doubtfully.
There was silence in the psychic belt. No one could answer this question. They didn't even know the truth about those caves.
As they looked at each other, two sounds of "cough" came from their ears. They followed the sound and saw that the wise master had returned to normal at some point.
"I suddenly thought of something just now, so I was delayed for a while. Let's continue the previous topic."
The wise master did not give any explanation, and the contract in the mantra book was still flashing, so they could not ask questions now, so they could only hold back for the time being.
However, the wise master had already agreed to continue the previous topic. When he spoke, he suddenly hesitated for two seconds and said instead: "You may have to go through some tests later..."
"Another test?" Angel frowned: "Or is it a bonus condition?"
The wise master shook his head: "No, this is something you will inevitably face when you go to the land of legacy. She has already taken action."
Angel reacted and immediately asked: "She? Is she the Demon God of Mirrors?"
The wise master still did not give a direct answer this time: "I will tell you later. Now is not the time."
This time, before Angel could speak, Doakes spoke first: "The master has already made it clear that she has already taken action against us, why are you still unwilling to tell us her identity?"
The wise master glanced at Doakes and said calmly: "You can't face her directly unless you go to the legacy. What you are doing now are just some of the methods she used to stay outside, just like what you saw before.
Just like a painting."
After a pause, the wise man said: "If she takes action directly, I can help you intercept her. However, I can't take action on the means she uses to stay outside, or... the chess pieces. You can only rely on you to solve it."
Doakes: "Why? Is it because this is a so-called test?"
Wise Lord: "Test is just my way of saying it. You are willing to accept obstacles, tribulations, or hurdles. If you don't give up and go to the place left behind, these are all necessary processes."
"As for why I can't take action... I have my reasons." When the wise master said this, he looked at everyone with profound eyes: "Besides, you can leave directly after you are done, but I will stay and continue to face each other.
To her. Unless you have a way to make her disappear."
"Make her disappear? Does the wise master want us to kill her? Kill a demon?" Doakes said with an exaggerated look: "How is that possible? Do you think it was still ten thousand years ago? In the Southern Territory now, no one can
Kill the devil."
When Doakes said these words, he didn't notice that Angel's expression was subtle for a moment...
Wise Lord: "You should have already guessed whether she is a demon god, so there is no need to test me. If she is a demon god in name, is she really a demon god?"
"Also, I didn't tell you to kill her. You can't kill her." The wise master said: "Besides, I don't want her to die either."
The words of the wise master made everyone even more confused.
His statement was full of contradictions. He seemed to be opposed to "her", but he didn't want her to die. But the implication was that he wanted them to make her "disappear".
What position does the wise ruler hold and what does he want to do?
Doakes directly asked the questions in his heart. The wise master's answer was still cryptic: "Everyone who is still here has their own obsessions, and so does she."
The wise master mentioned the obsession without hesitation. He had it, and so did she. However, he did not say what her obsession was. But judging from his contradictory attitude, the obsession between them should not be the same.
the same.
Xisiya said before that the obsession of the wise ruler is to witness the restoration of the glory of Naraku City with his own eyes.
This is also the thought of most of those sleeping in the underground waterways.
If "her" obsession is different from that of the wise master, if it is not to restore the glory of Naraku City, then what will it be?
While everyone was meditating, the wise master spoke again: "When we sign the contract and go to my residence, I will tell you everything you want to know."
"However, before that, you may need to face the test she has set for you first."
When the wise master said this, he glanced at the Black Earl and... Vai: "Speaking of which, I can basically confirm one thing now. It seems that you, the Noah family, have completely forgotten the land left behind."
The Black Earl did not make a sound and remained silent.
The wise master was right. He did not know the situation in the Land of Remnants. They came this time just because of the inspiration given to him by the smell of death.
But, having said that, before, the wise master could not be sure because the descendants of Noah did come to the underground waterway, and the target was indeed the remaining place.
But now, why is he determined?
The answer is because of... "her"?
The wise master continued: "If it were before, I would be very concerned about how you came here and why you knew the legacy. But now, these are no longer important. Because, whether you do it intentionally or unintentionally, your promise
The identity of the Asian descendants has been known to her, and if you don't intend to retreat, then you have only one way to face her."
Black Earl: "Confront her, and then what?"
The wise master smiled: "This is the secret of your Noah family, how could I know it?"
The Black Count didn't believe that the Wise Lord didn't know, because the Wise Lord had mentioned something before: "Make her disappear?"
The wise master said: "Don't test me, I really don't know. That boy Augustine is so mysterious that except for you, the descendants of Noah, he has not left a single word to anyone else."
The wise master still said he didn't know, but the Black Earl still didn't believe it.
According to the Black Earl's guess, the wise master may not really know the situation of any remaining land at the beginning, but no other descendants of Noah have come to the door for so many years?
Even if the wise master didn't know it before, after thousands of years, wouldn't there be some guesses?
And the most important point is that he just avoided the question of "making her disappear".
Maybe this is the key?
While the Black Earl was still guessing, the wise master turned back to look at Angel: "Continue talking about the contract, or do you also have questions?"
The wise master didn't care much about the purpose of Noah's descendants. But he really wanted to know the purpose of Angel's coming. Is it really just as he said, just to record?
Therefore, the wise master really wanted to hear Angel's question.
Angel did ask the question as the wise master thought, but his question had nothing to do with the place left behind.
"What exactly is the test?"
The wise ruler: "It depends on which chess pieces she can move."
Angel thought for a while and asked directly: "Do her chess pieces include those strange little holes in the passage outside?"
After hearing Angel's question, the wise ruler was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:
"Xiaobao said before that it found your traces. Unexpectedly, you are also very concerned about it?"
