Chapter 2606 Gift of Sweet Dreams

Does the existence of Wumugui have special meaning?

After hearing what Angel said, Doakes was filled with doubts. Could it be that the Wumugui had some unknown secrets? Is it because he is ignorant and ignorant?

Doakes turned to look at the others and confirmed that Vai and Kalel were also in a state of confusion, but the Black Earl only had one nose and could not see his emotions.

Just when Doakes was hesitant to ask Angel about being "ignorant", Angel took the initiative to answer the question.

"It is said that the community of Wu-eyed ghosts gather in the center of the underground maze. As long as you see Wu-eyed ghosts, it means that you are not far from the center of the maze. And the prison ladder we are looking for is in the central area. "

Doakes: "So the special meaning refers to this... Is this your exclusive information?"

Angel paused for a moment: "I can't tell you the source of this information."

Doakes shrugged and stopped asking questions. They had already seen what kind of temper Angel had. He made it clear in advance what he would tell you and what he wouldn't tell you. Although it was quite irritating at times, was this a different kind of sincerity?

At this time, the Black Earl had sorted out his previous surprised emotions and said calmly: "I can ignore the source of your information, but is this information credible?"

Angel pondered for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know how reliable it is, but since we have discovered the traces of the Wu-eyed Ghost, and it is indeed not far from the prison ladder, I think this information is still It can be believed.”

The source of this information was Sanders, and what Sanders was talking about was the situation in the underground labyrinth in the nightmare world. Angel was not completely sure whether it corresponded to reality.

But there are already traces of witch-eyed ghosts here, so it’s not a bad idea to put the experience of the nightmare world into reality.

Anyway, these are just details.

The Wumugui itself is not important, what is important is the meaning and symbol it represents. Moreover, even if they don't encounter Wumugui on the next journey, it will not prevent them from finding the ladder to the prison.

Black Earl: "Since you said that, let's just take it as good news."

After a pause, the Black Earl said: "You told me a piece of news, so let me tell you the same. It's not good news, it's not bad news either."

"Not too long ago, I left an olfactory anchor near that flue and smelled people."

Doakes raised his eyebrows: "Sir, you mean that the Traveling Merchant Organization is after you?"

Black Earl: "Only one person."

When Doakes heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes: "It's not interesting if you are alone. I guess even the group of scavenging squirrels may not be able to get through, and now I may not be able to protect myself."

Black Earl: "There is more than one way to escape from the siege of mutated scavenging squirrels. The man's aura has disappeared, which means he has successfully broken through the siege."

Now, Doakes became interested. With so many mutated scavenging squirrels, it was not easy to stand out from the encirclement. Even he would probably be covered in blood, and he might not be able to get rid of the mutated scavenging squirrel.

How did that person stand out?

Faced with Doakes' question, the Black Earl was silent for a moment, and then replied: "Angel used the moving illusion to take you away, which is a relatively decent way to leave. But that person's method was not so decent. But the effect is still very good.”

"In an undignified way?" Doakes: "What way?"

Black Earl: "What I left there was just an olfactory anchor point, I don't know how. However, there are only two ways, either I turned into a mutated scavenger squirrel and blended in, and then sneaked away. Or, Climb into a mutated scavenger squirrel and steer it away."

Anyway, no matter which way, in the eyes of the Black Earl, it is disgraceful.

The only criterion for Earl Black to judge decency is: does it smell bad?

After all, this Black Earl is the nose, and the smell is something he cannot bear.

"It turns out to be a transformation..." Doakes suddenly realized, but thinking about that scene, mixed with the mutated scavenging squirrels that could pile up into mountains, he still had to walk a long way, and he kept facing mental challenges. Doakes shudders just thinking about the pollution.

He would rather fight out than suffer this kind of torture. This is not a matter of shame, but a matter of whether he can endure the humiliation and bear the burden. He can "bear the burden", but he cannot bear this kind of humiliation!

The two apprentices were also trembling at this time, thinking about the mutated scavenging squirrels that were so ugly that they had a psychological shadow. I have to say that the one chasing behind was so scary...

However, this news only gave people a chill. If they really wanted to be afraid of the other party, they definitely weren't.

"Speaking of which, I didn't expect that your lord left a back-up, olfactory positioning point. It sounds very strong. It can be sensed from such a distance." Doakes asked curiously: "Sir, how many olfactory points were left along the way? Olfactory anchor point?”

The Black Earl snorted coldly and ignored Doakes at all.

Angel, on the other hand, said with a smile: "The answer to this question is obvious, isn't it? Are there other things besides mutated scavenging squirrels along the way? Do you think Lord Black Earl will leave an olfactory anchor point on this road? So... , leave at least one in the living area, and one near the intersection of the road we are taking. "

Angel looked at the Black Earl: "Sir, am I right?"

Black Earl: "One less person to say."

The Black Earl didn't say which one he had omitted. He said directly to Wai: "There is nothing to explore here. Let's move on."

After the Black Earl finished speaking, he glanced at Angel. The others also looked at Angel. Seeing Angel nodded, they took steps to leave the narrow opening.

The road ahead was slowly narrowing, but so far, there were still no accidents.

At this time, Dox came to Angel: "Have you thought about it? Where is the olfactory positioning point that the adults omitted?"

Angel shrugged: "I didn't expect it. What, do you have any ideas?"

Dox: "I guess it must be near the entrance connecting the underground church and the underground maze, so that we can monitor how many people are chasing us."

Dox said it was a guess, but his tone was firm.

Angel looked at Dox and whispered: "Sometimes I think your thoughts and behaviors are very abnormal, but sometimes your thoughts are too normal. You are really a mysterious man."

Angel shook his head, said nothing, and continued to move forward.

Dox scratched his head, looking suspicious. What did Angel mean by that? Did he agree with him or disagree with him?

The answer... of course he disagreed.

If the olfactory positioning point was really near the entrance, then the Black Earl would not have sensed someone coming just now. He must have said it early in the morning, not when the man had already reached the flue.

From the words of the Black Earl, we can know that the first olfactory positioning point is near the flue.

Going further, there is a magic array blocking the road. The magic array here is difficult for Angel to sneak through. Angel does not believe that the Black Earl's sense of smell can pass through the magic array.

So, if the Black Earl really has another positioning point, it must be on the road after the flue.

Where exactly is it? Angel probably has a few locations in his mind, but there is no need to delve into it, because if there is a new situation at that positioning point, the Black Earl will naturally tell it.

...

The road continues, and it is getting narrower and more inclined.

They did not gain nothing along the way. In addition to the traces of the Wumu ghost they found before, they later found several corpses.

They were all human, with some traces of the extraordinary. After identification, they should have been dead for a long time, at least more than 500 years, and their strength was probably at the peak of the apprentice.

There are roughly two ways these corpses died, one is killed by other humans, and the other is killed by monsters.

The pheromone amplifier detected that the monster was still a Wumu ghost, and its breath was more complicated than the one found at the centaur statue before.

This means that the apprentice who was killed was beaten to death by a group. In other words, there is more than one Wumu ghost.

This seems to prove once again that Angel's information is not groundless.

As for the "relics" of these corpses.

There are indeed some undestroyed space capsules with some sundries in them, which are difficult to distinguish between good and bad. And Angel distributed all these things to Kael.

After all, Kael is the real owner of the key and the initiator of the adventure.

As the leader, Angell deprived Kael of his interest in studying history and could only provide him with other things. Therefore, as long as it was not particularly dangerous or unknown, Angell's first consideration would be Kael.

After walking for a few more minutes, they saw the second narrow opening from afar.

The second narrow opening was more exaggerated than the first one, directly intercepting the road to only half the width, and looking from this side, it was still continuously narrowing.

"Will it not be the size of the alley in the end?" Dox muttered.

"Not possible, but certain." Angell: "The short distance we walked before was abnormal."

That was a kind of psychological oppression deliberately given by the authorities, which could be said to be a show of strength, but now it is gradually becoming normal.

After all, alleys are the norm in underground mazes. You know, when Angell was in the underground maze of Nightmare Realm, he basically walked on narrow roads, including the location of the wall, which was also a narrow alley.

"Pay attention to the statue in front, it seems to have traces of life." At this time, the voice of the Black Earl came.

Everyone's heart trembled, and they looked forward following the voice of the Black Earl.

Like the previous narrow mouth, there is a statue on both sides, but it is no longer a "positive image" of a centaur, but two very common gargoyles.

The centaur is a real stone statue, it is admonishing outsiders not to enter without permission.

The gargoyle is half stone statue and half monster, and the fate of not entering without permission is to face the attack of the gargoyle.

However, these two gargoyles look very patina.

The calculation of the Black Earl reminded that the gargoyle seemed to have traces of life, but no matter how Angel used his mental power to perceive, he did not find any abnormality in the gargoyle. There was no sign of shedding the stone shell and turning into a monster.

With curiosity, Angel walked in front of the gargoyle.

This time he observed the gargoyle more "deeply", because he directly broke a finger of the gargoyle.

Still no response.

At this time, the stone slab carrying the Black Earl flew over, and the stone slab floated directly to the center of the gargoyle's eyebrows.

After a while, the Black Count said, "These are two gargoyles that have already fallen asleep."

"Falling asleep?"

The Black Count: "Although gargoyles often sleep for decades, ten thousand years is still too long, so long that even monsters like gargoyles have already fallen asleep."

"Are they still alive?" Wai asked curiously.

The Black Count: "It's alive, but it's no different from being dead, because it can't wake up. Even if you chop off its head, it will just die, not be awakened by external forces. After all, it's just an ordinary little demon gargoyle... If it's a dark gold gargoyle, it has been sleeping for ten thousand years, maybe it can be burned continuously to wake it up."

What the Black Count said is another blind spot in everyone's knowledge. Although it is of no use to the real situation, it does not prevent everyone from silently memorizing it.

Gargoyles, a monster known for sleeping, may also be completely dead in sleep, as long as the scale of time is extended and extended...

"Since they are dead in sleep, should we chop them off?" Dox's hand was already on the sword at his waist.

Angel looked at the two gargoyles that looked ferocious but actually posed no threat at all and sighed: "Let them continue to sleep. In fact, sleeping to death is a good way to die."

As he spoke, Angel stretched out his finger and gently tapped the gargoyle's eyebrows.

Everyone vaguely felt a little magic fluctuation.

The Black Earl chuckled: "You are quite interesting. You are still using the dream spell on them. Are you afraid that they don't sleep well enough?"

Angel spread his hands and said: "Since they can't wake up, let's give them one last sweet dream."

After saying that, Angel turned around and walked deeper into the narrow passage.

Dox frowned: "Isn't his behavior a bit weird?"

Wai glared: "What do you know? This is the romance of Super Dimension. Giving beautiful dreams to the sleeping gargoyle sounds like a fairy tale."

Dox was interrupted by Wai and forgot why he felt weird before. He retorted: "If you change the gargoyle to the name of a beautiful woman, I will find it romantic. Giving beautiful dreams to the gargoyle? How is this romantic? There must be something wrong with your brain."

Wai: "Since the famous Red Sword Master thinks of Super Dimension Master in this way, why did you use the mind tie to tell me. Just say it out loud, or I will help you tell Super Dimension Master?"

Dox quickly grabbed Wai: "Only good friends will talk like this, what do you know. Don't try to destroy my relationship with Angel, give up, you can't interfere."

The two fools behind him came and went, and did not affect the progress of everyone's exploration.

After passing the second narrow mouth, not long after, they ushered in the fourth narrow mouth.

This might be the last narrow opening, because the road in the fourth narrow opening has been restored to an alleyway, which can accommodate three to four people at most.

Moreover, the fourth narrow opening is no longer tilted downward, but has been restored to a flat straight road.

A gargoyle has already appeared at the third narrow opening.

The fourth narrow opening naturally has corresponding guards, but this time the guards are completely different from the previous ones.

There is a wall candlestick at each end of this narrow opening, and a light blue flame is coming out of the wall candlestick.

Although it is called a flame, everyone can feel that this flame does not exist in the material world at all, because it is a mimic fire.

It is a flame mimicked by other non-material life. And, what kind of non-material life it is, the official wizards present have basically figured it out in their hearts.
