Chapter 2664 The Coming One
On the other side, in front of the entrance to the prison ladder. Everyone is watching the statue in the fountain.
"This pissing child looks much more sinister than the one you simulated with illusion before." Doakes said.
The statue that Angel had simulated using illusion before was a cute, bare-butt child, with a hint of naughtiness, holding his little brother with his hands like a mischievous person. Water jets spurted out from the little brother, turning into arcs. Fall into the crystal clear fountain.
Although the shape looks a bit strange, he is a little kid after all, and he will not have distracting thoughts even if he is naked.
The master-level carving skills clearly show the child's naughty, innocent and innocence, which can make people smile knowingly.
But the statue of a peeing child in front of him was different. The skin on his face was originally a warm and smooth colored glaze, but now almost half of the outer shell of the glaze has peeled off, leaving only white and black markings.
It looks like bruises from a beating.
The child's naughty smile also became a little sinister because of these bruises. It used to be a mischievous and innocent feeling, but now it has become a malicious smile.
Coupled with the filthy black water gushing out of the penis, it can be said that it has nothing to do with the statue that Angel transformed.
"Time has changed and circumstances have changed, and it is normal for some changes to occur." Vai said, "Also, didn't you guess that the woman statue was some kind of prison goddess before? It represents judgment; and the child statue represents killing."
"Isn't this sinister look more like a killer?"
Doakes hugged Vai and bared his teeth in his ear: "It makes some sense to say that time has changed and circumstances have changed. What the hell are you talking about next? You can tie these together. Are you being manipulated by Ange? Are you under the spell?"
Doakes's last words were in a low voice, almost like a whisper.
But everyone was not ordinary people, and they all heard it.
Angel, who was suddenly called out, was confused: What did I do to bewitch Vai again? Why do I say "again"?
What does Doakes mean? Could it be that he found out that I asked Vai to fool the Black Earl's crystal ball?
But that’s not right. This matter has nothing to do with Doakes.
Vai: "I said 'more like the Punisher', not that that's what it was supposed to be!"
Doakes: "You're just helping me anyway."
When Vai wanted to say something else, the Black Earl interrupted impatiently: "There is no need to argue about a nutritious topic."
Doakes patted Vai on the shoulder: "Look, all the adults in your family are criticizing you. What you say is completely meaningless."
The Black Earl turned the stone slab and pointed his nostrils at Doakes: "Your question is useless. How the statue changes is not the point at all. The point is the door under the statue."
The base of the statue of the Manneken Child is very high, and on one side of the base, there is an obvious door handle.
There is a slight crack in the door handle at this time, which was opened when the Black Earl sent his clone to check.
"There is nothing to explore outside. I have searched it before. Just go inside and take a look..." The Black Earl paused and turned to look at Angel: "I have already told you the general situation inside. , are you ready?"
The others didn't understand what the Black Earl meant, and looked back and forth between Angel and the Black Earl with puzzled faces. But Angel, as the person involved, naturally understood what the Black Earl meant.
The Black Earl was asking Angel if he had filed a record. What if the wood spirit was not inside?
Angel: "I almost have some ideas. However, there is no need to express these ideas for the time being. If the wood spirit cannot be found, it will not be too late to express it."
"Okay." The Black Earl ended the topic without any delay.
Doakes: "Hey, hey, I'm also the backbone of the team. You can discuss secrets and hide them from these two silly boys. Don't hide them from me. Tell me, what kind of riddles are you playing? "
Doakes let go of Vai, took three steps at a time and came to Angel's side, trying to wrap his arms around Angel like he had done with Vai before.
But Angel was one step faster than him, and in a flash, he came to the side of the Black Earl.
"Hey, how about you talk to me privately?" Doakes didn't want to get close to the Black Earl, so he could only shout from a few meters away.
Angel thought for a while and felt that it would be okay to talk to everyone, and said casually: "It's nothing, it's just that we overlooked an issue when we communicated with Xixia and Zhou."
At this time, Kael suddenly said: "The overlooked problem is time?"
Angel looked deeply at Kael and nodded slightly: "Yes, it is indeed time."
It's not too surprising that Kael can detect this. Although his inspiration is not as strong as Dox's, his observation of details and acuity of thinking are both quite high. This in itself is also a necessary condition for an academic wizard.
Along the way, Kael was basically silent, but that didn't mean he didn't feel involved. As long as he found a gap, he would take out the photo stone and look back at it from time to time, which showed that Kael actually paid great attention to every detail.
Angel: "When Zhou and Xixia received the information from the Wood Spirit, it was actually delayed. No one knows whether the Wood Spirit had any thoughts of leaving suddenly during this period."
"So, this is what the Black Earl and I discussed before. If the wood spirit is not inside, we need to prepare a record in advance."
Everyone thought that Angel's reply to Earl Black did indeed mean this.
That is to say, Angel and the Black Count had already made further preparations.
They now understood why the Black Count had only contacted Angel alone before, because even if they told them these things, it would only add to their troubles, so it was better not to tell them.
Now that they were at the door of the Hanging Prison Ladder, it didn't matter.
"So that's the case." Dox smiled: "Don't worry, the wood spirit definitely didn't run away!"
Angel looked suspiciously: "How are you sure that your inspiration has recovered?"
Dox waved his hand: "No. I just think, where can the wood spirit run to? It can't go back to the previous alien space. Even if it's not in the Hanging Prison Ladder, it can only be around here at most, and it can't run far."
Angel said lightly: "The underground waterways are connected in all directions."
Dox: "But there are monsters, isn't it very cowardly?"
Angel: "But its talent for hiding itself is also very strong."
At this point, Angel didn't intend to continue arguing with Dox, because the situations he and Dox cited could actually happen.
Whether the wood spirit is still there, and if it is not in the ladder of the prison, how far it escaped after escaping, is still an unknown.
To know whether a cat that has been in a box without food and water for many days is dead or not, you still have to open the box to see.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go, go in and see."
After the Black Earl finished speaking, he was ready to manipulate the energy to push open the door on the base of the peeing child.
However, the accident happened at this time!
The energy of the Black Earl just touched the base, and it was suddenly retracted. It was not bounced back, but the Black Earl took it back on his own initiative.
Everyone looked at the Black Earl in confusion.
But the Black Earl said nothing, and quickly floated in the sky, using the vigorous and heavy power to instantly create a dome that covered everyone without dead angles.
Faced with the series of manipulations of the Black Earl, everyone was a little strange.
Before they asked, the Black Earl quickly said: "Someone is coming. The energy on him is very strange. It seems weak, but it is as deep as the sea. My premonition directly activated my talent."
What the Black Earl's premonition was, he did not say. However, the biggest talent of the Black Earl's nose is the smell of death. His premonition activated his talent, which means that the person coming is a being that can make the Black Earl shrouded in the shadow of death.
Of course, here refers to the Black Earl's nose, not the body.
"Angel prepared the consumables for the plane channel. If the person coming is not good, there is a dome to resist, and we can buy time to open the plane channel." The Black Earl paused: "If there is still danger, I will cover the rear."
The words of the Black Earl made everyone stunned. They were still surprised that an unknown strong man suddenly came, and they were shocked by the Black Earl's determination in the next second.
Especially Dox and Wai were the most surprised, because they knew very well that the Black Earl's "covering the rear" was actually to delay time by death.
Wai often thinks the worst about why the Black Count sent his avatar to follow everyone, whether he has other intentions. Dox also believes Wai's statement because he is a fan of conspiracy theories.
But now, the Black Count expressed that he would die to protect everyone, which is completely different from what they originally thought.
Could it be that Wai had misunderstood the Black Count before?
The answer to this question is difficult for Wai and Dox to understand. But Angel is very clear, he has received too much information about the Black Count from Rhine and Iron Armor Granny.
The Black Count's avatar followed the descendants for a purpose, which can be good or bad, but it certainly does not mean to directly kill the descendants.
At this time, the Black Count expressed his willingness to die to protect everyone, and Angel also understood what the Black Count was thinking.
From the previous conversation, Angel discovered that the Black Count actually thought that the Wood Spirit might not be in the Suspended Prison Ladder because the Suspended Prison Ladder was too broken.
It was because of this idea that the Black Count contacted Angel and asked him to come up with a backup plan as soon as possible.
There are actually not many backup plans. Either go directly to see the wise master or change the route.
The Black Earl is also very clear about this. If there is no accident, he will most likely continue to follow Angel's choice.
But now that there is an accident, the Black Earl has a new choice.
Rhine has repeatedly emphasized that the Black Earl's clone is not afraid of death.
Moreover, sometimes the clone will choose to die on its own initiative, because after death, the Black Earl's real body will immediately receive the clone's memory.
Although it is not known how the Black Earl did this, it is precisely because of the Black Earl's memory recovery ability that his source of information is very wide. He can bring back a lot of information about desperate death places by relying on the death of the clone.
So, according to this logic, the Black Earl's nose is actually not afraid of death.
And if it dies here, it will be extremely beneficial to him.
First, it earns Angel's favor; second, when the memory returns, the real body will inevitably know what happened here and come on its own initiative. This bypasses the previous agreement between him and Angel.
Therefore, sometimes the things that Wai and Dox can't figure out are actually that simple.
When death is profitable, choosing death may not be a bad thing.
Although Angel knew the Black Count's intentions, if the most critical situation really occurred, he would have to accept the Black Count's favor.
Angel's thoughts turned upside down, but his hands did not stagnate at all. He quickly took out the consumables of the plane channel and quickly constructed a mental model of the plane channel in the thinking space.
As long as he thought about it, he could open the plane channel immediately.
After getting ready, Angel looked at the Black Earl: "My lord, are you sure the person coming is a human? Not a monster?"
The other party must be extremely powerful to make the Black Earl's sense of death appear actively. In Angel's view, only the wise master has such strength nearby.
So, he asked the Black Earl this question.
The Black Earl: "It smells like a human, but it's not pure. It's a bit like the feeling of Dongla."
Dongla, one of Angel's potential enemies, nicknamed "Grafting Maniac", loves to splice various limbs and organs. Create some strange and terrifying life.
Could it be a cyborg?
While Angel was thinking, the Black Earl's voice suddenly rose: "Here they come, be prepared."
Everyone looked serious and began to move closer to Angel. If they were really invincible, they would have to run away.
Angel's expression was not as solemn as others, because he was sure that he would be able to escape no matter what.
What he cared more about was who the person was?
...
When the answer was revealed, Angel's expression was extremely strange.
The expressions of others were similar to Angel's, basically all of them were shocked and surprised.
Because the person who came was not the image of a strong man they imagined, but a teenager who looked full of academic atmosphere.
From the body shape, he was about thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a newsboy cap with an ochre background and black stripes, and a robe of the same color.
He looked harmless.
But when he raised his head and revealed his face covered by the brim of the hat, everyone's expressions changed immediately.
Blue skin, and three eyes.
Although the other party was in human form, just these two features, as well as the Black Count's previous look of being in a state of panic, everyone had obviously guessed the identity of the visitor.
"He is, the wise... master!"
Everyone knew that they would definitely meet the wise master, but they did not expect that it would be so soon, and so sudden.
It seemed that he was heading straight for them.
"Good night, everyone!" The wise master raised his face and smiled in front of everyone.
He seemed not to see the light shield, but his eyes wandered over everyone. Among them, he paused slightly on the Black Count's nose, while the others just glanced over.
"Are you the wise master?" Black Count asked.
"Hey, how do you know who I am?" The wise man was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hand: "Forget it, it's not important."
"Don't be so vigilant, I don't eat people... Although I have eaten them before, I don't eat them much now." After the wise man said this, Wai immediately covered his mouth with a look of horror.
The wise man looked at Wai and said with a smile: "I'm lying to you. I've never eaten anyone."
After the wise man finished speaking, he stretched and leaned against the wall beside him: "Relax, I'm not here to kill people, I'm here to find someone."
Angel: "Looking for someone?"
The wise man nodded: "Among you, there should be someone from Noah's clan, how about coming out to chat?"
Hearing the wise man's words, everyone immediately understood that the wise man was not "as if" coming for them. Instead, he really came for them!
