Chapter 2777 Answer
Seeing that Angel didn't respond for a long time, the silver-haired girl thought for a while and said, "My inquiry may be a bit presumptuous. How about this, I can give you a free gift."
Before Angel could answer, Dox next to him muttered, "Just now you said that you couldn't see the bond, so there was no gift. Why are you saying you can give a free gift now?"
The silver-haired girl didn't want to pay attention to Dox's voice, but Dox's words did arouse the curiosity of others, and they all looked at the silver-haired girl. She was silent for a moment, and still said to Angel, "Although I can't establish a bond with you, there are many things about you that are reflected in my eyes..."
"Huh? Huh!"
It was still Dox who made the sound, and his tone of voice turned down from a high point, and his eyes slowly changed from shock to obscene.
Although he didn't say a word, Dox's tone seemed to contain a full article
The silver-haired girl glared at Dox coldly, suppressed her anger, and explained in a low voice: "The reflection of the heart only corresponds to intelligent creatures."
In other words, the silver-haired girl's so-called gift was not referring to Angel, but the intelligent creature in him.
For example, Dangros, and the wood spirit.
Angel also heard the words of the silver-haired girl, but he had no interest in her so-called gift. Her so-called reflection of the heart, that is, the gift, how can it compare to Dodolo's prophecy in Angel's opinion?
You know, when Angel wanted to find Dodolo several times, Dodolo came to the place where Angel would go and waited. Before Angel opened his mouth, he gave important prophetic instructions.
Just like this time, when Angel went to find Dodolo, before he told his situation, Dodolo said: "The wise are not stupid."
At that time, Angel had not met the wise man yet, which shows how amazing Dodolo's prophetic ability is.
With such a backing, what gift do you care about?
However, although Angel thought so in his heart, he still showed an "interesting" expression on his face.
After all, outsiders did not know the relationship between Duoduoluo and Fantasy Island. Moreover, although Duoduoluo's reputation has spread in the outside world, his performance on the Stargazing Day is more widely spread. The Stargazing Day has the bonus of mysterious objects, which cannot be completely attributed to Duoduoluo, so outsiders still have a little doubt about Duoduoluo's own predictive ability.
Before Duoduoluo is fully grown, Angel did not want to expose the true situation of his predictive ability.
"I'm sorry I can't answer this question."
In the disappointed eyes of the silver-haired girl, Angel continued: "It's not that I don't want to answer, but I don't know. Before this, your so-called bond, time body, and reflection of the heart... I have never heard of it."
"I haven't heard of it, how can I guard against your so-called bond?"
Angel shrugged: "So, don't say you are curious, I am also curious about the reason."
Angel's words were very frank, and others nodded in agreement. They have been communicating with each other through the mind ties. It is easy to tell whether Angel really doesn't know or is just pretending.
Moreover, Dox kept shouting that it was unfair. Why did the bunny girl directly hand the mask to Angel?
During this process, Angel's behavior and psychology were defenseless. Whether he knew or not, everyone present could see it clearly.
Therefore, they all agreed with what Angel said.
As for whether they were curious or not? Of course, they were curious, but since Angel said that he didn't know, did they want Angel to show his things and abilities one by one to prove which one was the "truth"?
Angel was not someone who could be manipulated by others at will. At that time, Angel did not show any fear when facing the wise master. There was no doubt that he had a trump card. How could they do something to tease the tiger's whiskers?
The silver-haired girl stared at Angel quietly for a long time before she whispered, "That's right, I thought too simply. I have been floating in that distant sea for too long, and I have too many complicated memories, which made me forget that everything in reality must follow logic. There will be no results if you ask without logic."
The silver-haired girl's words were very obscure, but the meaning was nothing more than: I know you must have a conclusion in your heart, but I can't prove these things because I don't have enough evidence and logic can't let me infer this conclusion. So, you win.
Angel understood her words, and he didn't feel anything about the "self-deprecating accusation" in her words.
On the contrary, he was a little curious about her judgment.
"Why do you think I must have an answer?"
Silver-haired girl: "I can't answer, because I can't sort out the logic that can convince you."
This is really a cheating answer...Angel sighed silently in his heart, but said indifferently: "Okay, I don't need you to have a logic that convinces me. From the perspective of pure consequence, you think I must have an answer, right?"
"Yeah." Almost no hesitation in the answer.
Angel smiled: "Before this, I was very sure that I didn't have an answer. Whether I lied or not, you can go out of the mirror and use the truth to see for yourself."
"However, after your confident answer, I began to have some ideas."
If the judgment of the silver-haired girl is "absolutely correct" as she said, then Angel can be sure that one of his previous guesses should be the correct answer.
There must be one correct answer among Green Patterns, Origin Fire, Bloody Night Shelter, Wilderness of Dreams, and Eyes Beyond the Sky.
But which one it is, Angel can't be sure.
"I do have several alternative answers in my mind. If your judgment is correct, then I guess the answer you want should be among these alternative answers I thought of." Angel did not hide it. Speak your thoughts directly.
The silver-haired girl's eyes suddenly lit up and she looked at Angel.
Angel shrugged: "However, these alternative answers I think of are basically... secrets."
When Angel said "secret", he narrowed his eyes: "So, what qualifications do you think you have to ask me to tell my secret?"
Although Angel's words were said without any emotion, the content of his words was full of gunpowder.
However, the silver-haired girl was not irritated by Angel. Instead, she thought about this question very carefully. After a while, she hesitated and asked: "Isn't the gift I just said okay?"
"Do you think these intelligent beings in me will understand your words of advice?"
Angel paused, then pointed to the other people around him: "Do you think they will be grateful for your gift?"
"Use the so-called bond to forcibly connect cause and effect. Through the mask left behind, we are forced to enter the fetters and bridges of fate. Your so-called gift is just an arrangement given to you by the wise master. It is not our initiative, nor is it what we need now. ." Angel: "It can be said that you use your so-called gift as a 'reward'. Have you ever thought about how we view your gift?"
"These gifts are just rewards for living in your own world. For us, they are burdens placed on us for no reason."
"What's more, your current body also comes up with so-called questions for a test... It seems like a test, but it is actually an attempt to make us have a causal connection with your current body, right? These are not what we asked for, and even Being fooled into your relationship, why do you think that giving us words will make us shed tears of gratitude?”
What Angel said before was just a bit of gunpowder, but now he lit the fuse and fired.
However, what he said really made everyone else stunned for a moment. They had never thought about this angle before. They just wondered why it was a test, a time body, and a reflection of the heart. Now Angel directly clarified the logic behind it.
In fact, everything she does is to create cause and effect and create bonds.
The masks left to them are also the product of cause and effect. They got the "result" of the mask fragment, and the "cause" that planted the result was naturally connected.
Moreover, Angel also extremely doubted that without the causal connection established by the three time bodies, the silver-haired girl might not have been able to appear in front of them.
Because the silver-haired girl said from the beginning: My true body is still hidden in the distant sea, so I can only let my three incarnations come in contact with you on my behalf.
Angel also asked at that time, since the body is still in the distant sea, what is it that appears in front of us?
Her answer: mirror image. In other words, it is a shadow.
According to this situation, she could actually use her shadow to meet them from the beginning, but she did not do so, but let the time body contact them in advance, which means that the cause and effect was not established before the time body came into contact with them. Before the bond, she couldn't even make a mirror image appear in front of them.
It can be said that everything was arranged by her.
They were kept in the dark and were led by her on a string to do a series of things... forming a bond, taking over the mask, and turning it into cause and effect were all caused by her.
After doing this, she not only felt that she had done nothing wrong, but also thought that giving a "gift" was a kind of reward.
This is too disrespectful of them.
Even though they are looking forward to the so-called surprise from the wise master, it does not mean that they can accept such a complete surprise that has no right to know and is arranged. Just send it off with a compliment? What about the causal ties established?
If the causal link allows the silver-haired girl to see the so-called reflection of the heart, can't something else be done through this link?
Prophecy wizards can often predict or even curse other people through pheromones and so-called cause and effect.
The three major schools of prophecy have specially coined words for this purpose: pluck the strings of the world, divert the long river of destiny, and disrupt the wheel of time.
In the words of the silver-haired girl, these situations are called "bonds" and "fate bridges".
The prophecy wizard can use this to curse others. Doesn't the silver-haired girl's bond have the ability to attack?
Isn't this a kind of deception that created a bond between them unconsciously? Can it be dismissed with just a complimentary message?
It was precisely because Angel learned the truth about the so-called bond and fate bridge from her and clarified these things that he felt that the silver-haired girl was simply... brainless and ignorant.
If the other party doesn't make any demands, then it's not a bad idea for Angel to bury these words in his heart.
But after the silver-haired girl knew that the answer in Angel's heart was the "secret", she still wanted to continue exploring. She even thought that giving a gift could be exchanged for Angel's secret. This was the main reason why Angel lit the powder keg.
Of course, Angel was not as angry as he appeared on the outside. The reason for doing this is to observe the silver-haired girl and test her character, ability, origin and bottom line.
Angel's thoughts were probably only seen by the Black Earl. However, Dox and the two apprentices were completely in the "victim" background created by Angel.
The more they thought about what Angel said, the more they felt the same way.
The angry eyes stared at the silver-haired girl.
The silver-haired girl probably didn't expect that Angel would suddenly open fire. Moreover, what he said really stirred up the emotions of everyone.
The silver-haired girl was not a self-centered person. She was also trying to understand Angel's anger.
In her opinion, everything was to repay the kindness of the wise man, and there was no other idea at all. However, this was only from her own standpoint. If she stood in the other party's standpoint, it might indeed produce the various negative emotions mentioned by Angel.
Because of this difference in understanding, she had seen countless incidents of being betrayed by her friends and relatives in that distant sea full of various broken memories.
Through the manifestation of these memories, she seemed to understand why the other party was so angry.
After hesitating for a while, she slowly stretched out her hand.
The slender white finger pointed at everyone through the prism.
As she moved, Dox instantly pulled Wai and Kael behind him. At the same time, Ermi crawled out of the shadows, and Su Ling also stood beside Ermi, blocking the front.
While they were alert, the silver-haired girl gently tapped the prism.
The mirror surface was like a lake, and ripples were raised.
The moment the ripples appeared, figures walked out of the prism.
It was not the silver-haired girl, but her three time bodies, namely the bard, the astrologer, and the bunny girl.
After they appeared, the bard and the astrologer spread out their palms respectively.
A halo of light rippled out from the palm, and there was no offensive energy in these halos, but instead revealed various scenes when the Black Earl, Dox and others answered questions before.
These scenes turned into a stream of light, and finally merged into the old stone mask held by the magic hand.
After the halo disappeared, the bunny girl stepped forward, took out a mask from her carrot bag, and placed it in front of everyone.
This mask was the old stone mask with a female appearance that the silver-haired girl had held in her hand before.
After doing all this, the three time bodies disappeared at the same time.
At the same time, the voice of the silver-haired girl echoed in their ears: "Although the bond and the bridge of fate are not of much use to me who is just a mirror image, and will eventually sink into the mirror abyss... but since you care about its existence, I will return them to you."
"The bond is back in place, and the bridge of fate has been cut off."
"And the two faces of the shepherd god are my compensation for my impoliteness."
