Chapter 2716 The first test(1/2)
Seeing Angel's "pretending to be confused" look, the wise master didn't bother to say anything, and waved his hand directly: "Forget it, forget it, what secrets do you want to hide, I don't care about you, anyway, the contract was signed successfully
, as long as you abide by the contract, everything else doesn't matter."
The wise man's "generous" attitude made Angel even more confused.
Not to mention Angel, no one else understands what the wise master is talking about.
——Angel’s true appearance is hidden from view? Is it covered up tightly?
Is what the wise master is talking about here the true appearance in a literal sense, or is it a metaphor, and the true appearance actually refers to the true appearance of the personality? If the latter is the case, maybe they can still understand it. But the former is true.
It was confusion that spoke.
They have all seen Angel's true appearance. To say that it is shameful is definitely wrong. As for whether Angel has hidden his true appearance? They are not blind. The apprentices cannot see the transformation technique, but
A formal wizard can still tell, not to mention that the Black Earl is still here. Whether Angel is showing his true appearance or a fake one can be distinguished at a glance.
Everyone had doubts in their hearts, but they couldn't speak up on Angel's behalf, so they all remained silent.
As for Angel, the little bubbles of doubt in his heart were popping up one after another. He wanted to ask for the specific reason, but he was worried that the scene seen by the wise master might be related to that person.
While Angel was wondering whether to ask, the wise master had already come to the next question: "The contract has been completed, you can choose to let me fulfill the contract now, or at any other time."
What is related to the Wise Lord in the contract is naturally the reward after the contract is established. The so-called performance of the contract by the Wise Lord is to tell some things about the experiment back then and the truth about the snake entwining the cone.
Angel thought for a while and then said: "Let's wait until we get to the residence of the wise master before we talk."
The wise master was about to reply, but suddenly paused for a second or two, and then a smile appeared on his lips: "Even if you ask me to say it now, it may be too late."
Angel: "Huh?"
The wise master turned his head and looked accurately through the extremely luxurious nightmare realm in the direction of the ladder to the prison.
"Because your first test is here."
The first test? As soon as everyone heard this, their expressions immediately became solemn. Because this test was completely different from the previous extra-point test given by the wise master.
Although the test given by the wise master at that time was forced, it did not ask them to "die".
It was purely in the name of a test to find out their information.
And the test that the wise master mentioned this time was undoubtedly the interception initiated by "she" against them. If they failed to intercept, they would be intercepted and killed.
Therefore, they must take it seriously.
"I wonder what this so-called test is?" asked the Black Earl.
Because they had already speculated before that Younu's test must not be here, but at the fork in the road before arriving at the Wise Man's Hall. Therefore, this test must have nothing to do with Younu.
What they most hope for is that Younu's three children will test them. Because the wise master can control their behavior and even let them help Angel to test the limitations of Younu's movement in the magic energy array.
But if it weren't for Dabao and the others, then this test would have to be handled with caution.
The wise master did not answer immediately, but closed his eyes, seeming to be sensing something.
After waiting for about a minute, the Wise Lord opened his eyes and regained consciousness. However, before the Wise Lord could speak, everyone heard a cold snort coming from their ears.
"Descendants of Noah, if you leave now, you can still get everything done. But if you insist on rushing in, you will see what... despair is."
It was a female voice, with an indifferent tone, saying threatening words.
Everyone looked at each other, and finally looked at Angel. Because they were in Angel's extremely luxurious nightmare, it was difficult to detect the source of the female voice, so they could only place their hope in Angel.
Angel, however, put his right index finger to his lips, making a "shh" gesture.
Soon, the female voice echoed again, but this time it was not directed at "outsiders".
"Master of wisdom, you should know that arrogance is the original sin."
The wise master smiled lightly and said: "I am neither arrogant nor betrayal. You should see it more clearly than me."
"Hmph, give up your unwarranted desire to spy. There is nothing you want in the Qingkong Poetry Room."
The wise ruler remained silent this time.
And the female voice didn't speak anymore, the lingering sound gradually became quieter, and finally turned into waves of... ripples.
Literal ripples.
"Her voice came from the water surface of the fountain outside." Angel paused: "Now that the ripples in the water have disappeared, she should have left as well."
"Water surface?" Doakes frowned as he recalled the dark, smelly water in the fountain outside. "I really don't dislike the location at all."
"Even if it is sewage, the water surface can be called a mirror... Is it her?" As the Black Earl spoke, he turned to look at the wise master.
The wise master smiled and narrowed his eyes: "Congratulations, you got the answer right. However, there is no reward."
"Is her sudden appearance this time a declaration of war?" Doakes asked.
Wise Lord: "You can take it as a declaration of war, or a prelude to the upcoming trial. However, her appearance this time is more of a warning to me."
"As you heard before, she has discovered that I have a connection with you. Fortunately, she still doesn't know how far our connection has reached."
After saying this, the wise master moved his eyes away from Angel, who was directly opposite him, and turned to the Black Earl and others.
"Speaking of collusion, I have signed a contract with Angel, who likes to hide his head and show his tail. We are barely on the same side." The wise master said: "What about you? Should you also make an agreement with me, witnessed by the book of truths?
?”
An ordinary agreement must be a gentleman's agreement, and compliance depends on self-awareness. But since the wise master mentioned the power of mantra, this agreement is actually almost the same as a contract.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "We can talk about the agreement later, shouldn't we talk about the test now?" Doakes asked.
The wise master stretched out his index finger and shook it gently: "Your test is not that fast yet. Even if the first test is in front of you, it will not start immediately. Therefore, there is still time. We can talk about the agreement first, and then talk about the test.
"
The wise ruler has made it clear that if he does not talk about the agreement, he will not talk about anything else.
The Black Earl said in a deep voice: "What agreement?"
The wise master said: "Unlike Angel, you only need to write one sentence in the mantra book: I will not spread the word about what happened in Narok City in any way, including express or implied."
This sentence sounds very similar to the third clause in Angel's previous contract. However, it is much looser than Angel's. The wise master asked Angel to "not mention anything about what happened in Naraku City."
.The requirement for Black Earl and others is "not to spread the word about what happened in Naraku City".
One is a mention, and the other is a side story. Mention means you can't even talk about it, but side stories, at least in a certain circle, can still be discussed freely.
Moreover, there is more room for ambiguity in the definition of side stories. The Black Earl told other people in the clan about what happened here, and asked the clan members to sign a contract to prohibit the spread. This can actually be regarded as internal digestion rather than external rumors.
It can be seen from this wording that the wise masters are more afraid of barbaric caves, but there are not many restrictions on the descendants of Noah and wandering wizards.
It's normal if you think about it carefully. Savage Cave was a giant ten thousand years ago. Although it has declined now, this is not the fault of Savage Cave. It is because the entire wizarding world in the Southern Region is in a period of decline.
No matter how it declines, the energy of Savage Cave is still enough to crush Naraku City.
The wise ruler was worried that the Savage Cave would set its sights on Naraku City, which would be a disaster that could destroy Naraku City. Therefore, when facing Angel, the conditions he gave were obviously harsh, because the Savage Cave was an "alien"
people".
The descendants of Noah are still huge even now, the top existence in the wizard family. However, after all, the Noah family also comes from Naraku City. The legacy they are going to is also established by Naraku's ancestors. They follow strict rules.
In a sense, he is not considered an "outsider". Of course, he is not one of our own either.
The wise masters do not demand that the descendants of Noah can stand on the side of Narok City and aim to revive Narok. But as non-outsiders, they at least cannot stand on the opposite side of Narok City.
This is also the reason why he proposed an agreement, and although the conditions were relaxed, they were not as loose as imagined.
As for Doakes, Kalel... wandering wizards, there is no need to care.
After the wise master finished speaking, he continued: "You only need to write this agreement in the mantra book. When I tell you about the situation in the legacy land, I can use the mantra book as a guide throughout the process."
Although the wise master did not give a direct reward like Angel, the feedback he proposed was also quite useful.
Taking the mantra book as a guide means that the wise ruler will not be able to lie when talking about the situation in the land left behind.
Although you can also use ambiguous words to make it impossible to tell whether the truth book is true or false, but if you can clearly express it clearly, but use ambiguous expressions, everyone will immediately notice that something is wrong.
And if there is no truth book as a guide, it would be a bit difficult to know whether what the wise master said is true or false. Unless someone dares to use the truth spell against the wise master throughout the whole process... at least, no one among them dares, not even the Black Earl.
dare.
Therefore, the wise master himself proposed this method of return. For them, or in other words, for descendants of Noah like the Black Earl, the benefits definitely outweigh the disadvantages.
Only after they know the true situation in the legacy area can they make better responses. If they tell false information, they will only be harmed by themselves.
Thinking of this, the Black Earl did not hesitate and was the first to express it in the mantra book.
