Chapter 2595: Three-Way Intersection

After all, the group of demon believers did not fall to the point of trying to sneak out of the stinking ditch.

After everyone walked downhill for about two minutes, they saw a fork in the road.

And there are still three forks in the road.

One continues down, one goes parallel to the right, and the other goes uphill to the left.

The path that continues downward in the middle should be eliminated first, because the smell of the stinking ditch comes from below. However, this was only ruled out for the time being. After all, they had entered an underground maze. There were many paths in the maze, and it was not ruled out that there were roads below besides the smelly ditch.

As for whether to go uphill to the left or parallel to the right, you need to make a choice.

In fact, everyone had their own thoughts on which path to take, but now the choice was still in Angel's hands, so they remained silent and turned their attention to Angel.

Angel didn't think too much, but took out a short black staff from his bracelet, and then silently thought in his heart: Su Ling, help me.

The rustle of the breeze was Su Ling's response.

Angel closed his eyes and erected the short staff in his hand directly on the ground. With the injection of spiritual power, ripples invisible to the naked eye spread out from the bottom of the short staff.

No one was surprised by Angel's actions.

What Angel unleashed was a very common trick called "sound echolocation". He was similar to the auditory feedback of a blind woman's cane, sensing the surrounding situation through the propagation of sound.

This trick is quite versatile and is very useful when exploring ruins or conquering unknown lands. Therefore, almost every wizard will use it.

Of course, different wizards use it differently. Some can explore hundreds of meters, while others can only explore tens of meters. As for using sound echolocation to detect kilometers or even further, that is the domain of the sound wizard.

Everyone was also curious about how far Angel could detect using the sound echolocation technique, so they all used their mental power to detect the spread of ripples at the bottom of the short staff.

When the ripples expand to a radius of about ten meters, zigzag curves begin to appear.

"My lord's echolocation technique doesn't seem to be very good?" The two young apprentices were connected to the psychic tether at some point, and it was Kael who spoke: "My echolocation technique can spread dozens of meters away. "

"What's there to compare this with? Master Chao Dimension is a master of alchemy, and it is said that he is also a tutor at Ashley Academy. He spends his time studying this kind of magic, which is specially used for frontline investigation. Let me tell you, sir. In fact, there is no need to waste time learning." Vai, who was in the Noah family but cared about Angel, couldn't help but argue.

Kael actually belongs to the academic school, so after hearing Vai's argument, he felt that this was also the case. Although Kael himself likes to explore ruins, this is also because he likes to study history. If he didn't have this hobby, there is actually no need for him to learn the echolocation technique.

"What you say makes sense, but I still don't understand. Why did you choose to use the sound echolocation technique at this time?"

Kael's doubts were also Vai's doubts, but he automatically ignored them because of the idol filter.

Although the conversation between these two little guys was held in a private psychic tether, the other people present were all official wizards, so it was easy to break their conversation.

Doakes even joked: "Even Kael dislikes your sound echolocation technique, why don't you show them some color quickly."

Angel ignored Doakes's teasing, but when the ripples spread to the extreme, he picked up the short staff again and touched the ground heavily.

This not only continues to inject spiritual power, but also serves as a reminder to Su Ling.

Su Ling had a contract with Angel, and they were connected spiritually, and they quickly took action.

A gentle breeze slowly began to fill the sound echo positioning technique. A small ripple creates another ripple in the whirlpool of the wind.

In this way, with the addition of Su Ling, the sound echolocation technique was taken to a new level. Ripples appear one after another and spread into the distance. Even if the radius of each ripple is only about ten meters, when the base number of the ripples becomes larger, the exploration distance will naturally become further.

Seeing this, the doubts in the hearts of Kael and Vai were finally solved. They also didn't expect that Angel would actually use wind elemental creatures as assistance to achieve this step.

"If the sound echo ripples continue to grow, wouldn't they be able to spread for more than a thousand meters?" Kael said in surprise. This time he didn't use the psychic tether. Anyway, the psychic tether between him and Vai was just like a blank sheet of paper. What was written was clear to all the wizards present.

"Theoretically speaking, it's possible. It can even be farther than the sound wizard, and even infinite." Doakes rarely explained seriously: "But it's just a theory. Because every time a sound echo ripple is added, The interference will increase. The increase in this variable is not the length of one plus one, but the length of the doubling. It is okay at first, but later, when it is a hundred times a thousand times... even if the sound echo ripples spread to 10,000 meters away, Are you sure you can tell whether the information fed back to you is true or not?”

"To put it simply, this is a small technique of echolocation, but it cannot be used by ordinary people. Only people with extremely high computing power can use it." After saying this, Doakes looked at Kael and Vai : "Kael still has a chance to learn, but as for Vai, it's better to give up the idea of ​​learning as soon as possible."

Kael is an academic and loves to study, and what he studies is extremely high-level space magic that requires strong computing power, so he is qualified to learn.

As for Vai...the otaku is useless except for being a loser.

While Doakes was explaining to them, he was also observing Angel. He was actually curious about how strong Angel's computing power was.

As far as Doakes himself is concerned, when ten sound echo ripples are reached, the brain will shut down. And Angel was facing three exits at the same time, spreading countless sound echo ripples at the same time. Can he hold on?

Doakes observed very carefully, but in the end he still didn't get to the bottom of Angel.

Because when Angel finished the sound echo ripple technique, his mood was stable, and his expression did not have the wilting look that occurs when his mental calculations are excessive. He still looked relaxed.

In fact... Angel is indeed relaxed.

The super brain state is not even turned on, it is just to eliminate some interference and finally trace back the information. This didn't even overload the "server" in his brain.

"Three roads, continue going down. I explored about three hundred meters and ended. There is a hole there, and there should be a smelly ditch under the hole. I also felt it in the smelly ditch, and there were many forked roads. At the same time, The life reaction there was quite active, so in order not to disturb them, I did not go any further." Angel paused and said, "Although the smelly ditch is not a priority, it is still part of the underground maze, and may even be more convoluted than other places. ”

After speaking, Angel glanced at the Black Earl. The latter is right next to Angel, because this is where the purification force field has the greatest effect.

"If your purification force field can be improved by two levels, then I have no objection to going to the smelly ditch." said the Black Earl.

That being said, if Angel couldn't raise the level of the purification force field and they had to go to the smelly ditch, the Black Earl would probably hold his nose and keep up.

After all, the destination was related to the Noah clan. As the leader of the Noah clan, how could he retreat just because of this small obstacle?

Angel also saw a hint of arrogance in the Black Earl's nature. He didn't say much, but continued to talk about the other two paths.

These two roads must be the priority. Among them, Angel has also explored the uphill road to the left for nearly a kilometer, but has not reached the end. Moreover, this road also has forks, which may be a way to survive in the maze. Of course, it is also possible that this is a false way of survival. After exploring all the forked roads, you will find that they are all dead ends.

"As for the parallel road to the right, it should be a dead end."

Doakes: "Should you? Didn't you get to the bottom of it?"

Angel: "I found it. Go straight to the right for about 600 meters and there will be no way. There is no fork in the middle. There is a bit of extraordinary reaction, but the non-biological energy may be some props contaminated with extraordinary power."

"There is no way out, why do you still say it 'should' be a dead end?" Doakes asked doubtfully. He only cared about the weirdness in Angel's words. He had no interest in those extraordinary props.

"The reason why I use the uncertain word is because at the end of the passage on the right is a door, and behind the door is a double-story building." Angel: "There is a magic energy array on the door, but I found some loopholes. I let the sound echo ripples go in. Although the sound echo ripples didn't detect the existence of other doors, there weren't many sound echo ripples I could get in, so I couldn't determine whether there were other doors in this room. The exit can lead to other parts of the maze."

After Angel's explanation, Doakes finally understood that because the end was not a wall but a room, variables were possible.

"Now, we can talk about which way to go?" Angel said, looking at the Black Earl: "I haven't confiscated the short staff yet. I want you to have a good luck."

Black Earl: "I said, I can only make lucky choices, and the number of times has been exhausted. I don't know other prophecies."

Angel raised his eyebrows and said no more, but in his heart he didn't really believe what the Black Earl said. After all, the Black Earl was quite hasty when he used luck to make decisions. There was a situation where "the warrior had not arrived at the final Demon King's castle, but he used the disposable sword that could cut off the Demon King's head to kill the slime." visual sense.

"I have learned some good luck in choosing one or the other, but the probability of making a mistake is about half." Angel played with his short staff, looking eager to try.

After Doakes heard this, he laughed angrily: "Choose one of the two, and your probability of making a mistake is half. Isn't it the same as not learning?"

Although what Doakes said was right, Angel personally felt that there was still a slight difference. At least, he had learned well the ritual before releasing good luck. Whether it is right or wrong in the end depends on fate.

"How about I use my good luck to choose one of the two, or how about you tell me which way we should go?" Angel looked at Doakes.

There are a lot of twists and turns ahead, but the ultimate goal is actually to let Doakes show the way.

If Doakes doesn't show the way, then we have to choose one of the two. Anyway, there is a 50-50 chance of digging the path to deodorize the ditch.

Doakes didn't realize at all that Angel was tricking him... because the experiment of inspiration advancement had reduced Doakes' sensitivity in inspiration.

Therefore, Doakes really thought seriously about which way was better.

After thinking for a while, Doakes pointed to the right: "Let's go this way first. It's not far anyway. Even if it's a dead end, go explore it. After all, there is another building. Maybe there are any clues in it."

Kael: "Will there be murals?"

Dox said unhappily: "How should I know? Don't keep painting murals. You just got one. When exploring ruins, greed is a taboo."

Kael lowered his head in disappointment. In fact, he just wanted Dox to say: Maybe there are murals.

In this way, maybe there really are murals.

After all, it's not a lie to open your mouth.

"You're right. Since we have discovered a building, let's go and take a look..." After saying this, Angel took the lead and walked towards the parallel road on the right.

As he walked, Angel continued to talk about the results of the previous sound echo wave detection: "Come to think of it, I also found a few doors in the stinking ditch, not far from the cave. According to the rule of exploring buildings, how about going to the stinking ditch first?"

Dox: "... I believe that the demon cultists will not lose their style so much that they will go through the stinking ditch to regain the treasure. You know, the stinking ditch ten thousand years ago is completely different from now."

Angel: "You are right, but the demon cultists have built churches underground, so it seems that it is okay to endure humiliation a little more."

Dox: "... Anyway, I don't want to go to the stinking ditch unless it is absolutely necessary."

"Okay." Angel did not force himself to go to the stinking ditch, but just used this to test Dox's attitude towards the stinking ditch. If Dox's inspiration is still working in a low-key manner, then there is no need to go to the stinking ditch.

"By the way, if you go to the right, it is actually equivalent to going back. Will you meet the creature that made a wheezing sound before?" Kael suddenly spoke.

Kael's words reminded everyone. Indeed, according to their journey, this is indeed the way back.

However, they walked downhill for a while and now walked on a parallel road. Unless there is an uphill road behind, it is difficult to encounter the creature separated by the wall.

"Whether you can meet it depends on whether the building at the end has a second exit." Although Angel said so, he personally did not believe that he could meet it. The reason why a maze can be called a maze is because of its twists and turns and weirdness.

The wall in the maze may be the north and south of the world.
