Section 2666 Necessary Conditions

The wise master also heard the deliberate vagueness in Angel's words, but he did not pay attention to it, and instead talked about an unrelated matter: "I am very interested in the source of your intelligence, would you like to communicate with me? "

Angel: "After communicating with you, can you let us go? Well, I mean, you won't hurt us, let us go in and out smoothly, and then leave."

Wise man: "Everything is negotiable, as long as you can meet the corresponding conditions."

"If you say it, you haven't said it yet." Angel deliberately complained softly, and then said loudly: "Then what conditions do we have to meet?"

Wise Man: "Answer my question."

Angel and the wise man looked at each other for a few seconds, then said directly: "Okay."

Wise Man: "Why don't you discuss it with your companions? Maybe I also have questions to ask them?"

Angelhun said nonchalantly: "When you want to ask them, just ask them directly."

Angel knew very well that the wise man would definitely not give up observing other people's reactions, and he would not completely believe Angel's words. The wise man even had doubts about whether Angel was a member of the Noah family.

Therefore, as long as Angel discusses with other people, wise men can interpret more information through observation.

But Angel didn't negotiate at all. It seemed that the team was completely dictated by him. This made the wise man wonder: Is Angel really their decision-maker? Or is it that they have already discussed countermeasures before, how to deal with themselves? But if they really want to discuss countermeasures in advance, they must understand their own personalities extremely well, and not everyone knows this information.

Even Sisia couldn't have predicted his behavior so accurately.

So, is this illusion wizard really a decision-maker?

The wise man had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but he didn't show it at all. He didn't even pause at all. He turned to look at the others: "Are you sure you all want to listen to him?"

The wise man looked at each one, not to mention the two apprentices, who definitely had no right to speak. What he mainly looked at was Doakes and the strange nose.

The nose on the stone board did not respond, but this attitude was considered by the wise as acquiescence to Angel's dominance.

But Doakes had some reactions that made the wise man find it interesting.

"His opinions do not represent my opinions." Doakes raised his eyebrows.

The wise man looked back at Angel: "It seems that your teammates are not completely convinced by you. Are you sure you don't want to discuss it with them?"

Before Angel could answer, Doakes took the lead and said: "What do I mean by disobeying him? Can't I have my own opinions? Moreover, what he just said is that if you want to ask us questions, you can ask directly. He I have said so, you can ask me if you want, if you have any questions for me, you can just say it, don’t go around.”

Angel originally wanted to express a similar meaning, but Doakes said it for him, so he was happy and relaxed.

However, Angel could also guess that the wise man must also understand the truth of what Doakes said. He deliberately distorted the meaning of his words simply to see if they were really united.

This was a very obvious provocation, and Doakes jumped out on his own initiative.

Angel couldn't predict whether Doakes's jumping out would be a good thing or a bad thing. However, Doakes understands that he is currently in a stalemate and passive position, and he still takes the initiative to jump out. He should have his own ideas.

Maybe his inspiration made him do this?

Even if the inspiration talent has not been restored, inspiration is a mysterious thing, and it is possible to bring blessings to the soul.

Just like Dotolo, he couldn't see through the end of Angel's trip, but even if the prophecy failed, Dotolo simply relied on the echo from his heart and gave the answer "A wise man is not stupid".

This is also a kind of "mystery". It's hard to explain, and it's not an ability, but it pops up occasionally and guides you in the right direction.

Because of this, Angel didn't care that Doakes jumped out and became a new object of observation by the wise man.

Although Doakes was not very reliable at certain times, but now under the pressure of the wise master, when his life may be threatened, Doakes dared to jump out, so Angel was willing to trust him.

The wise man looked at Doakes: "Okay, let me ask you a question first. Can you tell me, is what he said true?"

The wise man pointed to Angel.

Doakes: "What did he say? Those words before?"

Wise man: "I won't mention the previous one. What I want you to answer is every word I say to him next."

Everything Angel said before was ambiguous and could be true or false. Therefore, there is no need to mention before, if you want to mention it, just mention it after.

Doakes was stunned for a moment: "You mean, every time you say something, I will be the one to judge?"

Wise man: "It can be understood this way, are you willing?"

Doakes: "Yes, that's fine, but if I don't know how to answer."

The wise man smiled and said, "You can answer whatever you want."

Angel's emotions leaked very little, but Doakes' emotions were very obvious. No matter how Doakes answered, a wise man could find some clues.

Doakes scratched his head and muttered: "Why do you feel so slighted?"

The wise man smiled and did not talk to Doakes anymore, but looked at Angel: "Now, are you ready to communicate with me?"

"Yes, but communication and questioning are different." Angel looked at the wise man.

The wise man: "I understand. Since it is an exchange, there must be give and take. If you want to know something, I can tell you."

The wise man's behavior seems to be grand, but in fact, in Angel's view, it is just that.

The wise man is not stupid. He will not do something that has no benefit at all. Angel's question can also analyze many clues for him.

Angel: "Let's start. Or do you want me to answer the question you asked before, my source of information?"

The wise man nodded.

Angel: "I don't know what source of information you want to ask, about Noah's ancestors, or other things?"

The wise man: "Since you know Augustine, then it is understandable that you come here, so this is not what I am concerned about. What I want to know is, where do you know my information from?"

The words of the wise man actually gave a very key information. Augustine, that is, Noah's ancestors, must be related to the destination. This is something that everyone present can hear.

However, the wise man actually did not need to say this information at all. He took the initiative to say it, and he must have other purposes.

His purpose can actually be guessed, that is, he wants to test the depth of everyone's understanding of the goal of this trip.

Angel did not look at the reactions of others, but he could guess that Wai and Kael would probably be slightly surprised, the Black Earl would not show emotions, and Dox... Angel could not predict.

Angel: "I got the information about you from Zhou."

The wise man did not respond immediately, but turned to look at Dox.

Dox nodded at the right time: "Yes, Zhou was the first to tell us that you are the master of the wise."

The wise man easily judged that Dox... did not lie.

But who is Zhou?

The wise man raised this question, but he did not ask Angel, but directly asked Dox.

Dox looked suspicious: "You don't know Zhou? Isn't it one of yours?"

Our people? When the wise man was wondering, Dox directly pointed out that Zhou was the curled-horned half-blood demon in the third narrow mouth.

The wise man immediately understood: "So it was it? Did it tell you that it was called Day?"

Dokes nodded: "Yes, from what the wise man said, could it have deceived us and used a false name?"

The wise man did not answer Dox's words, but frowned and pondered for a while, then turned to look at Angel: "It's your turn to ask."

Angel: "I thought you would continue to ask what Day told us."

The wise man: "I know everything it knows. I also know what it doesn't know."

Angel: "Since the wise man said so, do you know why its name is Day?"

The wise man choked... He really didn't know this.

After Angel asked this question with a smile, he didn't give the wise man time to respond, and changed the subject: "I asked this question for fun, it's a personal question, it's understandable that the wise man doesn't know. Can I change the question?"

"Okay." The wise man saw that Angel wanted to control the rhythm of his speech, but he didn't care about it. Compared to this, he actually wanted to ask, does Angel know the curled-horned half-blood demon, why does he say he is Day?

Because Angel's question just now was quite rhetorical, obviously telling the wise man that he knew Day, why was it called Day.

The wise man was a little itchy and wanted to ask, but he didn't want to follow Angel's rhythm. He could control the rhythm, but he didn't want to deviate the rhythm.

Angel: "How many questions do I have to answer to meet the conditions you set?"

Wise man: "Answering my questions is just one of the conditions. Moreover, it is not a necessary condition."

"Then why should I continue to answer your questions? Why don't you just tell me the necessary conditions?"

Wise man: "Although it is not a necessary condition, it is a bonus condition."

"What do you mean?"

"After completing the necessary conditions, I can let you pass through my hall and let you look for Augustine's remains."

"But if you go there, the result may not be good."

"You mentioned before, 'I let you go, and you can also let you return safely and smoothly', which can only meet the first half. I can't guarantee the second half 'safe and smooth'."

Hearing this, Angel roughly understood what the wise man meant: "So, answering your questions is a bonus condition. Can you guarantee that we will come back safely and smoothly?"

Wise man: "I can't guarantee it, but I won't stop you from leaving my hall. If necessary, I can also take a nap and close the hall."

The words of the wise man are full of meaning.

Basically, he directly threw a truth in everyone's face: the destination you are looking for is very dangerous. Moreover, there is an existence that you cannot deal with. As long as the extra points are met, he can help them escape danger at his discretion.

Angel: "It's your turn to ask... By the way, is this a question?"

The wise man nodded indifferently: "Okay."

Angel: "That's good. If you insist on answering every question like Miss Xixia, I will feel uncomfortable."

Wise man: "My second question, what did Xixia say to you?"

The wise man is not stupid either. He knows that Angel deliberately revealed Xixia.

However, even if Angel didn't say Xixia, he would ask about Xixia, because the location where they appeared was destined for them to meet Xixia.

So, the wise man followed Angel's words and continued asking.

Angel: "I've said a lot, and I don't know where to start. Alas, there's no way. I asked too many questions. It will probably take a long time to finish. After all, I stayed in her box for nearly an hour."

The wise man knew that there was an acceleration of thoughts in the box of Xixia. If it was really an hour, it meant that Angel and Xixia talked for nearly a day.

So much to talk about? Xixia is still willing to talk to him?

The wise man turned his head and looked at Dox with doubts.

Dox nodded: "Yes, about an hour."

Really stayed for an hour? ! The wise man always felt strange, but he could sense that Dox was not lying.

While the wise man was struggling, Angel secretly gave Dox a thumbs up in his heart. Dox just took the initiative to jump out and really muddied the water.

And the muddier the water, the more questions the wise man will think about. Worrying too much will make the wise man closer to the truth, but it will also make the wise man ignore the details.

In fact, what Angel cares least about is the truth, and what he least wants the wise man to know is some minor details, such as the nightmare world, the dream wilderness, etc.

So, the muddier the water, the more he can conceal these details.

Is it really a blessing that Dox jumped out this time?

Angel: "Are you sure you want to listen from the beginning, Master Wise? Or, I will only talk about the things that are related to the Master Wise?"

The Master Wise can vaguely sense that Angel should have talked about some very secret things with Xixia, and Angel's current performance seems to want to conceal these things...

The wise man was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, just talk about things related to me."

The wise man did not acquiesce to Angel's concealment, but he thought about it. What Angel wanted to conceal should be some secrets that Xixia told him, or Xixia's true identity.

The wise man actually knew something about Xixia's secrets. He could be sure that it had nothing to do with Naraku City or Augustine... because Augustine's matter happened after Xixia turned into a box.

Since it had nothing to do with this, he might as well not ask.

Moreover, he didn't want to waste time. If he was really curious, he could just ask Xixia directly after this.

The wise man considered the problem very comprehensively, but he missed a detail: Angel had a one-on-one communication with Xixia.

The process of information exchange is called communication. Therefore, it is not necessarily Xixia who exported the secret to Angel, but it is also possible that Angel exported the secret he wanted to hide to Xixia.

If the wise man knew that the person in front of him was Angel, one of the most dazzling supernovas in the southern region, he would most likely consider it in both directions. But he didn't know that the red-haired man covered by layers of illusions was Angel, so based on universal logic, he ignored this point.

The wise man was using information asymmetry to deal with them. In fact, there is also information asymmetry between Angel, the wise man, and Noah's clan. So this can be used to deceive the wise man.

However, what can be deceived are only irrelevant details, and the main axis is difficult to conceal.

If everything can be completely deceived by Angel, then the wise man should not be called a wise man, but simply changed to a fool.
