Chapter 2648 A Wonderful Encounter

Angel said nothing, just stared at Xixia quietly.

Xixia felt a little uneasy, as if Angel had guessed her thoughts.

After all, it was she who suddenly changed her mind, Xixia was too embarrassed to say anything, so she could only turn her head away and not look at Angel: "If you don't want to know anything, then I'll take a break..." Or in other words, calm down the sudden fear.

As Xixia's voice fell, the dark fog that spread throughout the palace slowly gathered, as if to completely surround Xixia on the throne.

Just as Xixia was about to disappear into the darkness, Angel said, "Let's talk about the treasures?"

"Treasures?" Xixia stopped controlling the black mist, hesitated for a moment before looking at Angel:

"You mean these treasures?"

Xixia waved her hand lightly, and four items appeared in front of her -

a dark crystal ball, a wrinkled kraft paper with sewn edges, a faintly glowing rattan stick, and a gray slate without any decoration.

These four treasures were the tolls his companions paid to Xixia.

"Yes, let's talk about these few." Angle paused: "Of course, if you want to talk about the more meaningful and special treasures in your collection, that's fine."

Cesia said vigilantly: "If you want to talk about the treasures in my collection, you can. You have to trade with me with other treasures first. Once they belong to you, I will talk."

"Then if we talk about these four treasures, you won't ask me to trade with you first, right?"

"That's not necessary, but..." Cecia looked at Angle suspiciously: "You don't seem to know your teammates that well?"

"What you call treasures lies in the meanings, which are hidden in the most secret corners of everyone's heart. No matter how familiar they are, even if they are relatives, they may not understand the meaning of treasures."

After saying the above, Angle said In a matter-of-fact tone, he said: "But you are right, I don't know my teammates very well. We are a temporary team here, and the people I am most familiar with have only been together for no more than half a month."

Cisia: "... Then you said a lot of nonsense with righteous words."

Angel: "I am just correcting the logic."

Cisia narrowed her eyes: "Are you sure you want to correct the logic with the former prophecy wizard? Because of the box, I lost my prophecy ability, but some of the touches of the soul have not disappeared."

Angel: "... If you had said you were a prophecy wizard earlier, I would not have said nonsense."

The words of the prophecy wizard are completely illogical, they are weird and jumpy, and what they say now may happen a few days or months later. What kind of logic is this?

"You don't respect your elders, like to talk back, and you blame me?" Xixia was speechless.

Angel remained silent, but his eyes were shining. Xixia looked at this familiar look, and almost made up the sentence in his mind-"After all, I am not yet twenty years old."

Xixia waved her hand quickly: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to bother with you. However, you dare to explore the ruins with someone you don't know, you are very brave."

"Everyone wants something different, but the goal is roughly the same, all deep in the underground waterway." Angel: "As long as there is an oath to constrain, there won't be any big problems."

The most important thing is that Angel himself has a trump card.

"What's more, the underground waterway is not a major relic in the wizarding world at present. At least people outside think it is not very dangerous."

Xixia: "That's right. With your team, as long as you don't go to your own death, wake up those sleeping old guys, or take the initiative to go to places you shouldn't go, then the danger here is indeed not great."

After a pause, Xixia asked: "By the way, do you want me to evaluate your teammates or these treasures?"

Angel: "It doesn't matter, just say which one you think doesn't need to worry about... After all, you are already very tired. If you worry about it again, Bopota will probably have to wait longer."

Angel's tone was serious, but Xixia felt ridiculed.

This guy has such a temper... He is only 20 years old, young and full of vigor... Hold it in... I was once a big shot anyway, I can't care, I can't care...

Sixia kept lingering in her heart with similar voices. Although her chest was stuffy, her expression was to pretend to be indifferent.

"Although you don't spend much time with your teammates, I believe you know your teammates better than I do. So, let's talk about these treasures." Xixia: "Which one do you want to talk about first?"

Angel: "It's all right, whatever."

Angel's indifferent attitude, in Xixia's view, was still implying that she was wasting time and didn't dare to face her people... It was really a bit annoying.

However, Xixia misunderstood. Angel actually knew about these treasures. What he really wanted to know was the situation of the Black Earl. But he didn't want Xixia to see the clues, so he simply said "whatever", one by one, and it would always be the Black Earl's turn.

Sixia, who didn't know what was going on, gritted her teeth secretly and forced a smile: "Then let's talk about it in order. I'll start with the crystal ball."

Sixia suspended the dark crystal ball in her palm, and her eyes showed a rare appreciation.

"In my opinion, this crystal ball is much more interesting than your two gold coins."

"It seems to be contaminated with a lot of the breath of death, but this breath of death is not the real breath of death. It is dying but not dying, living towards death." Sisia: "Do you know what this means?"

"Change your fate." Angel said tentatively.

Sisia chuckled: "This word is too big. It can't change this day, nor can it change my life. It just gently plucked the string of fate and made the worst result collapse."

Sisia pointed out Vai's ability in one sentence: "the smell of death."

Noah's divination shop opened by Vai is nicknamed the "Death Divination Shop", but the people who come to his divination shop are all people who don't want to die. They knew that the choice ahead might involve the risk of death, so they came to Vai to avoid the risk.

Therefore, Sisia is right. This is actually Vai using his own ability to pluck the "string of fate" and turn the outcome of death around.

"What's the point of this?" Angel asked.

Sisia: "It means that the bad results are only on the surface, but what is hidden inside is actually full of vitality."

After Xicia finished speaking, she gently weighed the crystal ball. Under the dim luster, Angel vaguely seemed to see a ray of purple light.

"Death and life are reversed, and the life string is overturned. Even if you don't look at the meaning of this crystal ball, it can be regarded as a very good extraordinary object. If the dying person wears it beside him, through the death energy disguised on the surface, maybe This can help you avoid death."

Xicia's last emotion made Angel's heart beat faster.

Angel thought of Jon.

If Jon had such a crystal ball that seemed to have a strong aura of death but was actually full of life around him, would he be able to avoid certain death?

Thinking of this, Angel couldn't help but ask: "Miss Sicia, are you sure this crystal ball can help the dying person avoid death?"

Sisia glanced at Angel: "It's possible, but its upper limit is not high. It can be used by ordinary people or middle- and low-level apprentices. If the strength is higher, it will be of little value... What? Do you want to protect it?" person?"

Angel: "Yes, an ordinary person who wandered from another world."

Angel didn't care about exposing Jon's "alien" origin, because when a wizard heard this sentence, he would never think that Jon might be from another universe; calling him an ordinary person was just a general term, like Like the people of the abyss, they would not really regard Jon as a "human being", so Angel did not do anything to cover it up.

Xisiya's knowledge base is obviously very rich. Hearing Angel's words, he immediately understood: "The erosion of the world's will?"

Angel nodded.

Sisia: "How far has the erosion reached? If it has just begun, find a way to give him extraordinary properties and embark on the path of extraordinaryness, so that the erosion can be avoided to a certain extent."

Angel: "... He is about to die. Currently he can only be frozen in a coffin."

Sisia frowned: "Has it come to this? Since you wanted to protect him, why didn't you do anything before?"

Angel: "He was my enlightenment mentor, and I grew up with him. When he was already emaciated, I met a passing guide. At that time, my age..."

As soon as Angel was talking about age, Sisia quickly stopped: "I understand, you don't need to continue talking. It's just that you met him very early, when you were still an ordinary person, so you didn't know what happened. What’s going on, I don’t know how to save it, right?”

Angel nodded: "Now, is this crystal ball still useful to him?"

Sisia thought for a moment: "It should be of no use. When he didn't have the death energy in his body at the beginning, it might be useful to have this. But now his death energy has penetrated deep into his bones, and he is fighting against the will of the world. With this The upper limit of the crystal ball is no longer useful to him."

Although he had expected it, Angel's eyes were still a little disappointed when he heard Sicia's answer.

"Do you still want to hear about this crystal ball? Or do you want to hear about crystal ball users?"

Angel suppressed the sadness in his heart and returned to calm: "Miss Sicia, please feel free to say whatever you want."

Xicia: "There is nothing to say about the meaning of the crystal ball. But the user of this crystal ball is a bit interesting. I can feel that he is reluctant to give up the crystal ball, but he is happy to give up the crystal ball; he is also afraid I am proud of my abilities.”

Angel: "I know this well. His ability is inherited from the blood of the Black Earl. The Black Earl is the real body of the nose embedded in the stone slab."

"Is he also from the Noah clan?"

Angel nodded: "Yes, almost all the abilities in the blood of the Black Earl have been passed on to different descendants, and the Black Earl has made countless clones around these descendants. It is said to be for protection, but it will inevitably make the descendants Random thoughts.”

Sisia: "Based on my experience, in the wizarding world, this kind of thing that sounds abnormal on the surface is generally not abnormal at all. If it is not abnormal, there may be an abnormality."

"On the contrary, for an ordinary family, with this level of anomaly, it is reasonable to think about conspiracy theories."

Angel: "Miss Sicia thinks that the Black Earl has no ill intentions towards his descendants?"

Sisia: "The Black Earl must have a plan to pass on his bloodline abilities to his descendants. But it's not malicious. It's hard to say."

When talking about this, Sisia suddenly thought of something and took out the crystal ball again: "Did his ability come from the Black Earl?"

Angel nodded: "This ability is called the smell of death, and it is inherited from the Black Earl. Because it is related to the sense of smell, the nose that follows Vai is the Black Earl."

Sisia: "That's it..."

Xicia held her chin, thought for a moment, and said to Angel: "This crystal ball is of little use to the alien life you want to save. But if the Black Earl also has the ability to smell death, and he also has the ability to cast this A medium of ability, such as a similar crystal ball. Then maybe his 'crystal ball' can be useful to the alien being in your mouth."

"However, this is just my guess. Your enlightenment mentor was already in a frozen state before his death. Even with the Black Earl's 'crystal ball', he may not be able to truly come back to life."

Sisia's words were like giving Angel a shot of chicken blood. Angel, who had no hope at all, now became enthusiastic again: "Even if it can't be completely cured, there shouldn't be any harm, right?"

Sisia nodded: "If it affects people who are in good health, even if it is a fake death aura, it will have an impact. But for people who are sluggish, there is no need to worry about any harm even if there is no benefit."

After confirming that there was no harm, Angel solemnly saluted Sicia: "Thank you for informing me."

Sisia: "Originally I thought you didn't understand what etiquette is, but it seems you still understand."

Sisia's tone was teasing, but Angel didn't reply at this time. Although he felt that what he said was sincere, Xixia always seemed to think that he was making excuses, so just stay silent.

"There's nothing more to say about this crystal ball. Let's talk about the next thing." Sisia tossed the crystal ball lightly into the dark mist. At the same time, a piece of crumpled leather paper floated down from the air. fell into Sisia's hands.

Sisia: "This paper...what should I say?"

"A small accident led to an ordinary person's extraordinary journey. But because of this small accident, he wasted decades."

"If I were to evaluate it, it would be just one word: stupid."

Angel said silently in his heart: It seems that you have already commented on Kael's words.

"This piece of paper carries Kael's obsession. Apart from his obsession, this piece of paper should have no value, right?"

Sisia: "That's right. However, I sensed something about the original owner, which is quite interesting. Do you want to hear it?"

"The original owner of the leather paper? Who is it?" Angel asked subconsciously, but he regretted it as soon as he asked.

Before he could reply, Sisia rolled her eyes at Angel: "How do I know who it is? I can only perceive the meaning on the paper, and a little bit of memories and emotions, but I can't see it directly. past situation."

"What's more, this piece of paper is only a few hundred years old. Do you think I can recognize people ten thousand years from now?"

Angel: It's because my IQ has dropped... No, it's because my mouth is faster than my thinking.

"Ahem, let's talk about the original owner, shall we?" Angel changed the topic stiffly.

"I think that 'stupid' one should also be given to you." Xixia snorted before starting to talk about the topic: "Before talking about the original owner, I want to ask first, is the formula on the paper the space system? The energy formula?”

Angel nodded: "It's a variation of Bazel's biphasic formula."

"Bazel's biphasic formula?" The ten thousand year old antique looked confused.

Angel simply used an illusion to simulate the original form of a row of Bazel's biphasic formulas: "This is the original form, a formula created by the twisted wizard Bazel thousands of years ago..."

Angel was spitting what he said, but Sicia was confused when she heard it. She used to be a wizard of the prophecy system and knew very little about the space system. What's more, after so many years of development of space knowledge, all the stereotypes are being overturned or new ones are being introduced. It's strange that Xicia can understand it.

After a while, Angel stopped, and Sicia asked weakly: "Do you also do research on the space system?"

Angel: "A little research."

"...Okay." Xicia suppressed the depression in her heart and praised: "I didn't expect that you know a lot at such a young age..."

Angel: "It's all the work of the forerunners, I'm just picking up others' wisdom."

Xicia was afraid that Angel would say "I'm not even twenty yet, I need to work harder..." and quickly changed the topic to the right track.

"The reason why I asked you if the formula on the paper is the energy formula of the space system is because the original owner of this paper was not from the space system." Sisia: "The original owner was a gastronomy wizard."

"Gourmet wizard?" Angel only heard Kael say that what he found was the remains of a white wizard, but he didn't expect that this white wizard was actually a gastronomic wizard?

By the way, are there any dark wizards among gastronomic wizards? If we were in the wizarding world of the Northern Territory where there is a tradition of "sacrifice to demons", it would be possible for a dark wizard from the gastronomy department to appear, but in the Southern Territory, almost all gastronomic wizards are white wizards.

"What is a gourmet wizard doing to study Bazel's biphasic formula? Curiosity?" Angel asked doubtfully.

"If it was curiosity, then this story wouldn't be interesting." Sisia: "The gourmet wizard ate some kind of hallucinogenic food, and then suddenly got inspiration, swelled up, and felt that he was helpless. I knew everything I could do, so I picked up a book at hand and started to deduce the formulas in it. "

Angel: "Then what?"

Cisia: "The next day, the hallucination disappeared, and he saw the transformation form he derived. Thinking of everything that happened last night, he felt embarrassed, so he stuffed it into a book casually, out of sight and out of mind."

"Later, the gourmet wizard left, and forgot about the book, and even more so the parchment. Later, it was the story of your teammate Kael."

After listening to the whole story, Angel was not surprised on the surface, but was full of surprise in his heart.

Unexpectedly, there was such an unexpected bloody story behind Kael's parchment.

If Kael knew that the transfiguration he had studied for decades was just a random doodle by a gourmet "addict" after getting high, he would probably be so depressed that he vomited blood on the spot...

However, although Kael did decades of useless work, at least he embarked on the path of a wizard because of it, and also learned all kinds of knowledge about the space system with the help of this transformation form.

From this point of view, the gourmet wizard also contributed.

The illusion of the addict hundreds of years ago created a successor of the space system hundreds of years later.

How to say it? This is also a wonderful encounter.
