Chapter 2618 Main Axis

Dox didn't show any confusion on his face. Instead, he looked left and right, as if he was seriously comparing the two different forks in the road.

But in fact, both Angell and the Black Earl knew that Dox must be in a dilemma at this time.

However, to their surprise, Dox made his choice very quickly.

Angell could even feel Dox's ups and downs of emotions. Before his emotions calmed down, Dox made his choice.

"Take that alley." Dox said firmly.

Although Angell was confused, he did not ask any questions. Instead, he nodded and said to everyone, "Let's go and listen to him."

Dox came up to Angell and asked curiously, "Do you really believe in me wholeheartedly?"

Angel: "Anyway, if something really happens, you will take the blame."

Dox pouted: "Don't forget, you are the leader."

Angel: "Since you said so, why don't you listen to me? Let's turn back immediately and take the road to the Twin Towers. It's not far anyway."

Dox rubbed his nose: "That's unnecessary, we've come this far."

Angel: "If you don't turn back, you will take the blame if something goes wrong."

Dox opened his mouth and said a few unclear words, but finally nodded: "Okay, then listen to me!"

Angel knew very well that Dox was playing a game with inspiration at this time. Any retreat would be a concession, which he absolutely could not accept now.

However, Angell was still a little curious. Did Dox go against inspiration this time or follow inspiration?

Angel and the Black Earl were communicating privately, and the Black Earl was also a little unsure.

However, when they were unsure, Kael, the "Wolong", suddenly came online.

Although Kael followed the crowd, his face was full of reluctance: "Why do we have to go to the dark alley? There is enough light over the small garden, and there are not many witch ghosts at all."

Kael's complaints were difficult for Angel and the Black Earl to respond, but there was another "Phoenix Child" who could respond.

Wai: "I think so too, the small garden is definitely the best choice. Who knows why Dox is crazy and has to choose the dark alley."

Kael and Wai sang the same tune, which made Dox a little embarrassed.

Dox came over and said to Kael, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You see, there are several stone tablets in that small garden. You're thinking of recording the inscriptions there, right?"

Kael: "Even if I have this idea, I'm just using the photo stone, not stopping."

Dox: "I don't care about that. You're just selfish."

After talking about Kael, Dox turned to Wai: "As for you..."

Wai raised his head and straightened his chest: "I'm not selfish. I just think the small garden is better than this dark alley."

Dox looked at Wai who was critical of him. His anger suddenly dissipated slowly. He changed back to a lazy tone: "You kid, are you afraid of the dark?"

Wai rolled his eyes. In order to create the atmosphere of the brink of life and death, the Noah divination shop he opened in Mesomia was completely dark. Would he be afraid of the dark? Dox knew it and still said it. It was completely a rumor.

Wai: "If you don't give me a reason, I will..."

Dox: "What?"

Wai: "I will... I will go to the small garden with Kael."

Wai had also thought it over carefully. The end of the small garden can be seen at a glance, so there shouldn't be much danger. Even if he really encounters a witch ghost, he and Kael will cooperate and not be afraid. Even if there are many witch ghosts, they should be able to fight their way out and then meet up with the adults at the end. At that time, the adults will naturally deal with the follow-up.

Kael was a little hesitant at first, but after thinking about it, he felt that it seemed nothing to go to the small garden with Wai. He has explored many ruins himself and is really not afraid of walking alone.

"Okay." Kael gave Wai support without hesitation.

Wai immediately raised his head and looked at Dox.

Because of this verbal argument, everyone stopped.

Dox glanced at Angel: "You don't want to say anything?"

Angel: "What can I say? It's normal for them to have different opinions. If I have to choose, I will also give priority to the small garden. But it doesn't matter if I go to the dark alley. Anyway, for me, both roads are OK."

Angel said it, but it was almost the same as not saying anything, not touching either side.

Dox sighed helplessly and said to Wai: "I don't have any reason, I just feel that there is something wrong with the small garden."

When Dox said this, Angel and the Black Earl looked at each other and had the answer in their hearts.

This time, Dox should not go against inspiration.

But, is there any reason for him not to go against inspiration?

While Angel was curious, Fengchu Wai came online again: "Something's wrong? What's wrong?"

Dox: "It's true that there are no witch ghosts in the small garden, but it's the absence of witch ghosts that makes people feel strange. If you think about it carefully, the witch ghosts themselves don't like light, but they are not too afraid of light. They can completely destroy the fluorite in the small garden, but they didn't do it at all. Isn't this a strange behavior?"

Wai: "If you don't like light, just stay away from it. Why do you have to destroy it? This place is so big, it can fully meet the living space of the witch ghosts."

Vai's words really make sense. Doakes scratched his head: "You are right to say that, but I feel something is wrong, so choose the other side. As Angel just said, for us anyway , both paths can actually be taken.”

Doakes laid out everything Angel said, and Vai felt a little embarrassed to continue arguing.

Indeed, you can go both ways, and Vai also gave a "similar" reason, so... let's take the dark alley.

The two young apprentices stopped messing around, and everyone finally stepped into the dark alley.

"Do you think the reason Doakes gave is because he followed his inspiration?" The Black Earl's whisper came as expected.

"I don't know, but Dox made a decision very quickly this time. Maybe it's because of that reason, or maybe there are other reasons. After all, human nature is very complicated. At the moment of making a choice, there are sometimes many things to consider. , sometimes it’s so simple that it’s just an inexplicable driving force.”

Black Earl: "The driving force you mentioned is intuition?"

“Intuition, instinct, or simply an inexplicable feeling mixed with inspiration.”

Angel said this because he confirmed that when Doakes made his decision, his emotions were still in turmoil, and it did not look like he had carefully considered it.

Since it was not a deliberate decision, it was possible that other driving forces made him make the choice.

They used to personify inspiration too much. In fact, inspiration itself has no thoughts. The only person who can really think is Doakes. Doakes is the subject of it all.

Black Earl: "What you understand is interesting. Maybe you are right."

Angel: "Then how do you understand, sir?"

Black Earl: "Same as you."

The Black Earl's tone was a little smiling, and he obviously had other ideas, but he didn't intend to say it. Angel didn't ask, because he was afraid that Earl Black's level of understanding was too high, leading him to fall into a high-level trap.

Although the Black Count now only has a nose and is not very powerful, his knowledge base has not changed. Sometimes, low-level wizards forcefully spy on or understand the words of high-level wizards, and they may fall into the trap of high-level wizards. This is not the fault of the high-ranking wizards, it is the low-level wizards who overestimate their capabilities.

Therefore, Angel's discussion with Black Earl rarely touched on the intellectual level. And the Black Earl did not raise the level of understanding too much, which made their communication actually quite harmonious.

Before walking a few steps on the dark alley, I encountered a strange scene.

Five witch-eyed ghosts circled around and kept turning.

Wumugui itself has the ability to transform into shadows. At first glance, it looks like a bunch of shadows spinning in circles.

"Is this a habit of the Wu-eyed ghost?" Vai looked at Kael. Although Kael did not recognize the Wu-eyed ghost immediately when he was outside, he knew that the monster he encountered was a Wu-eyed ghost. Finally, Kael said a lot about the habits of Wumugui.

This is typical academic style.

Kael thought for a moment and said in an uncertain tone: "Is this training?"

"Cultivation?" Vai looked at the group of shadows that made him feel dizzy. What kind of ghost cultivation method is this?

Kael: "As far as we know, among shadow-related monsters, Wumugui is one of the rare group-type monsters. According to records, the cultivation method of Wumugui is the blending of shadows."

Vai: "So the big fish swallows the small fish? These ghosts are not playing, but fighting? When they catch up, they swallow the shadow in front of them?"

Kael shook his head: "Wood-eyed ghosts rarely kill each other. The blending of their shadows is similar to our exchange meeting or tea party, where they exchange some special energy in their respective shadows... or information to improve themselves."

"As for the way of blending, there is no specific record in the book, because how to blend depends entirely on Wu Mugui's mood. I guess this may be a way of blending for Wu Mugui, used for practice?"

Kael was also unsure and could only look at Doakes.

Doakes's eyes were rolling around and he was playing a tune. Apparently Doakes didn't know what was going on either.

It was the Black Earl who finally made the final decision: "What Kael said is basically right. Although the Wumugui is a low-level monster, through the blending of shadows, and their final and continuous improvement, a perfect high-intelligence life may emerge."

Kael: "The wizard-level witch-eyed ghosts in the Twin Towers, aren't they..."

Black Earl: "Wizard-level ghosts are rare, but that doesn't mean they have never appeared. Wizard-level ghosts are far from perfect, but their wisdom has improved a lot. There are no truly perfect ghosts in academia. The imperfect one perfectly exchanges the information of all other witch-eyed ghosts, eliminating the dross and taking the essence to achieve a state of omniscience in the shadow world."

"Of course, this is a speculation in the academic world. No one has seen a perfect Wumugui yet."

"And the way of blending between Wumugui is similar to what Kael said, it depends on the mood. But the more times it blends, the higher its wisdom may be, and the number of blending tricks will also increase."

As soon as the Black Earl finished speaking, Doakes immediately responded: "I understand, I understand, the more experience you have, the more tricks you have."

After Doakes finished speaking, he looked at Angel with a lewd smile. Angel just raised his eyebrows, and Doakes turned his head silently and looked at the other person - Kael.

"It's like comparing me and Kael. I have a lot of tricks and I can do all kinds of poses. As for Kalel, do you have any tricks?"

Kael remained silent.

When Doakes saw this, he immediately laughed loudly, as if he had won a fierce competition.

It was just that Dox had only laughed for a short while when he suddenly found that he could not open his mouth.

When he touched his mouth, he found that there seemed to be a tape with an "X" on it.

There was no doubt that this was the work of the Black Count.

If you think about it, you can guess the reason. The Black Count was seriously popularizing science, but Dox was talking dirty. If this happened in other places, such as a formal exchange meeting, Dox would be enough to be killed into pieces.

However, Dox's inability to speak was only temporary. After all, the Black Count's nose alone was not enough to completely seal Dox.

But being able to be quiet for a while was also a good thing for everyone.

"How are we going to get through now?" When the world was finally quiet, Wai asked the most realistic question.

Five witch ghosts were not many, but the alley was narrow, and they circled and just blocked the road.

Wai: "How about... killing them all?"

"No need." After Angel finished speaking, he continued to spread the mobile illusion, and finally quietly surrounded the five witch ghosts.

Then, Angel simulated the surrounding environment, making the group of circling witch ghosts completely unaware that they had entered the environment.

In the last step, Su Ling silently controlled the witch ghosts to float into the air.

In this process, it is not a simple matter to make the witch ghosts not feel the change in their situation. But Angel's nightmare illusion can affect the judgment of the creatures in the illusion to some extent.

They are still circling, and they don't feel that they have been lifted into the air by the wind.

Now, there is no obstacle on the road ahead, and it is just right to walk over.

When everyone passed under the witch ghosts, Wai always felt a little awkward: "My lord, since we can lift them up, why don't we fly over directly?"

"Choice problem, what I can do alone, there is no need for you to do it all over again."

Angel's answer was righteous, which not only eliminated Wai's doubts, but also made Wai feel that Angel was very considerate of everyone's situation, and felt that his idol was even better.

However, Wai didn't know at this time that the Black Earl was complaining in Angel's ears.

"In terms of hypocrisy, you and your mentor are very similar."

The Black Earl knew very well why Angel chose to let Wumu Gui fly instead of them. The answer is simple, the mobile illusion cannot fly.

Or rather, the mobile illusion cannot fly here.

Because the main axis of the mobile illusion is Ermi.
