Miss Merlo looked around. The glass room wasn't too big. It was about the same size as the wooden house in the illusion. The room was surrounded by transparent glass, and outside the glass was a floating rainbow mist.
"Are we the only ones here?" Miss Merlo asked, "Where are the others?"
Angor pointed outside. "They're still outside. Let them stay in the illusion for a while."
Ms. Merlot asked, "Sir, are you planning to use this to train their temperament?"
"Do you think that if I wanted to use illusions to train them, I would use such illusions?" Angor didn't comment on the rainbow illusion, but Miss Merlo still noticed the disdain in Angor's voice.
Madam Merlot thought about it and felt that it was right. This kind of illusion could only be used to scare people apart from stirring up some bubbles in the depths of one's heart. Anyone with a normal mind could see that the illusion wasn't real.
"You want them to find their own way out, sir?"
Being able to see through an illusion and walking out of it were two different things. Even Miss Merlo didn't know how to get out of the illusion yet. Angor was the one who forced her to leave.
"No. I just want them to stay in there for a while."
Lady Merlo looked at Angor's calm face and recalled the trick she played on the stairs not long ago, which gave her an idea.
She wanted to watch a show again?
Angor felt a little helpless when he saw Miss Merlo's "I know" look. He explained, "I want them to stay in the illusion because the next scene isn't suitable for them."
Ms. Merlot was stunned. "What do you mean?"
With a snap of his fingers, a crystal staircase suddenly appeared in the center of the room and led upward.
Looking up, they could vaguely see the door of a room.
"That's the princess' room?" Miss Merlo was confused.
"I don't know if it's the princess' room, but the two talents you're looking for are inside." Angor considered. "Don't worry, they're still alive. It's just that the scene inside isn't very pleasant. Don't let other talents go inside.
Of course, I can let others in if you want. However, at that time, even if the two people inside are still alive, they might want to die. "
His words reminded Lady Merlo of what happened to Amesa.
The two missing talents were Gloucester and Blaze. Disregarding everything else, at least they each had their own unique looks. They were much more pleasing to the eye than the three men outside.
And the Empress was a pervert. What would she do with two good-looking men?
Ms. Merlot seemed to understand.
"Then let them stay outside for a while. Although the illusion is not high-end, it can still be used to hone their skills." Madam Merlot paused. "Shall we go up now? Or do you want to go up alone? "
Lady Merlot's etiquette taught her not to look at indecent things. It was fine that Amesa was a woman, but she might hurt the two men's self-esteem if she went.
Angor raised an eyebrow. "So I'm their guide? I didn't pull you out of the illusion to swap identities. "
Ms. Merlot hurriedly said, "I'm just, just …"
"No need to explain. Let's go together. Although the picture is unsightly, Dorcas is right. It does have a bit of artistic flavor. "
While speaking, Angor stepped onto the spiral staircase.
Ms. Merlot immediately followed. Etiquette was important, but her duty as a guide was obviously more important than etiquette.
Soon, they reached the end of the staircase.
There was a dreamy door inlaid with colorful gems. There was no lock on the door, but there was a hole where the lock should be.
There was a rustling sound in the cave, as if something was about to come out. Ms. Mello immediately became alert.
A moment later, something came out of the hole — a snake head.
This was the head of a python covered in pink scales. This python was wearing a fairy tale princess's dreamy crown on its head. The pink scales on its body were sparkling with starlight powder. Its two big eyes did not have the cold vertical pupils that snakes had. Instead, they were pink and heart-shaped.
It really did look like something out of a fairy tale.
However, Angor could see through the inferior illusion to see the snake's true appearance. It was ugly and filthy.
"Is our adorable little princess back? What kind of delicious dessert will the princess bring to your most loyal servant, Shrek today? Let me guess. Is it the hand of the maid who came to clean the glass room, or the head of your favorite waiter? I hope it's the hand of the maid. If I'm right, I'll report something important to Her Highness after the snack. Of course, even if it's the head of the servant, I'll still report it to Her Highness. After all, Shrek is Her Highness' most loyal servant. He won't hide anything from Her Highness. "
The pink snake head shook its head and spoke flattering words, but it did not notice that the person standing in front of it was not the Empress who had returned in the past.
After it was done with all the flattery, the pink snake head blinked its pretty eyelashes that had been forcefully plastered on and looked forward.
When it saw that it wasn't Miss Merlot, but a man and a woman it didn't recognize, the snake head's flattering expression immediately changed into a vicious one. "Intruders! How dare you come here? You must have a death wish! "
As soon as the snakehead finished speaking, it launched an attack without any hesitation.
It raised its head high and spat out a puff of pink, poisonous mist from its mouth. At the same time, it bared its sharp fangs and aimed at Angor's neck like an arrow.
However, Angor didn't appreciate the snake's attack at all.
Angor lazily waved a hand and used the Speed Spirit to blow away the poisonous mist. Then, he stuffed a Mana Bread into the snake head's mouth.
Yeah, he just made it. Not only was it hot, but it also tasted great. The only regret was that he failed a little this time. The Mana Bread was overcooked and a little too hard. It was probably as hard as a diamond.
The pink snake head was a little confused by the series of actions. It never tasted so disgusting before. However, the food was stuck in its throat. It couldn't swallow it, but it also couldn't spit it out.
It stuttered for a while but still couldn't move.
Angor released a bit of wizard-level aura. The pink snake head's heart-shaped pupils shrank into a thin line.
"What … ugh, blergh … another Magus …"
Angor smiled. "Dorcas told me about you. He didn't want to touch you because you're filthy, so he only told you not to talk for a while. Now, it seems that the silencing enchantment has passed. "
The pink snake head was terrified when it heard that Angor knew the intruder. Gray Raven might be able to handle the red-haired Dorcas. But now, it seemed that there was more than one wizard in the castle.
Two Magi would be difficult to deal with.
Moreover, this Magus seemed to be even more ferocious and terrifying than Dorcas. He had actually used a hardened piece of dung to block his throat. More importantly, Dorcas only told the snake to be quiet, but this wizard showed a murderous look in his eyes.
Was he going to kill the cute Shrek? God, I haven't lived long enough. I haven't become the legendary World Serpent yet. How can I die like this?
With that in mind, the pink snake head quickly changed its attitude and expressed "I surrender" with its eyes. It didn't look like a snake's eyes. Instead, it looked like some kind of sled dog.
His mouth was still stuttering, "I, I can, uh, tell milord, ugh, all the secrets here. Mister, I'll join your side anytime! "
Angor said, "Since you know what's good for you, I'll let you go. I'll ask you about the secrets later. Open the door for me first. "
The pink snake wasn't a pet. It was a spirit, similar to Tree Spirits and Lady Mirror. Of course, it was only similar to "spirits". In terms of strength, this snake couldn't even defeat a hair of Lady Mirror.
The spirit of the python had fused with the door and became the spirit of the door.
If he wanted to enter the inner room, he would either have to kill the spirit python or force it to open the door by itself.
Speaking of which, many spirits in the Sorcerer World were gatekeepers. For example, Talos the Two-Faced Spirit of Silent Hill, Zibo the Totem of Moxa Westland, and even Lady Mirror were all considered as door spirits.
It wasn't that spirits liked to choose doors. It was that wizards wanted them to become doors.
Since spirits were subordinates of wizards, most of them were born according to wizards' wishes. Of course, spirits like the Elder of Books were an exception.
The Elder of Books' status in the wizarding world was probably higher than Rein's.
Since the snake spirit had already admitted defeat, it wouldn't go against Angor's will. The door slowly opened.
As the door opened, even though Ms. Merlot hadn't looked inside yet, she had already heard familiar shouts.
"Ahhhhhh! Damn it! "
"That damned human ant! How dare he treat the Demon King like this! This is unforgivable blasphemy! He will be punished by the Demon Realm! "
Angor, who was standing at the door, stopped moving.
On the other hand, Madam Merlot looked a little embarrassed. "Brazier is a very energetic child. His imagination is very rich."
After Lady Merlot finished speaking, a slightly calm but still audible voice of a youth came out, "Are you really the agent of the Dark Demon King in the human world?"
"No! Wrong! Wrong! How many times do I have to tell you, Glaus? Are you a fish without memories? I'm not an agent! I'm the Demon King! The Demon King himself! "
"Then why were you also captured by that lunatic?" Glaus asked suspiciously.
"I'm the young Demon King. Do you know what that means? It means I haven't fully grown yet. The Demon King's power is sleeping inside me. It will slowly grow as time goes by, and eventually, I'll be able to sit on the Throne of Darkness again! "
Glaus seemed to believe it. "Is that so? Can't you do anything about that young Demon King? You've been with Lady Merlo longer than I have. Didn't she teach you how to use the Demon King's power? "
The arrogant voice suddenly weakened. "Of course I have a way. Didn't you see my right hand?"
"I saw it before. Your right hand is wrapped in bandages."
"Foolish mortal, this isn't an ordinary bandage. It's a special form of energy. Its function is to seal the enormous power of darkness in my body. Just a little bit of it will be enough to solve our current problem. "
Blaze's words were very impassioned, but halfway through, he changed his tone. "But, as you can see, I'm tied up like this, and I can't remove the seal that binds the power of darkness. So … "
"So, you can't do anything, right? The young Demon King. "
Brazier was speechless.
"Right, didn't you say that the power sleeping in your body is the Demon King's power? Why is the bandage sealing the power of darkness? Is there a difference between these two powers? "
Brazier was stunned. He had forgotten to perfect this detail. Damn it, why did Glaus remember it so clearly!
However, Glaus had not finished his question. "Before we were tied up, your hands were completely free. Why didn't you remove the bandage?"
Brazier's voice became low. "… That's because I forgot. You might not know, but as the young Demon King, my memory is very chaotic. Sometimes, it's even worse than an ordinary person's."
Glaus continued to play the role of a curious child. "I can understand the memory lapse, but we were locked up for so long. Didn't you think of removing the seal to save yourself?"
Brazier wanted to curse in his heart.
Glaus clearly believed that he was the young Demon King. Why was he so picky about the details? Or could it be that this Gloucester appeared to be fair and clean on the surface, but when his stomach was cut open, it was filled with black pus?
Angor spoke to Lady Merlot at the door, "Look, they're still alive. At least they won't die for now."
Lady Merlot's lips twitched. "Yeah."
"Let's go inside and see what Dorcas meant by 'real art'."
Angor stepped through the door. As he walked, he saw a serpent with an elongated neck. It was Shrek. The serpent's character was now "traitor" and "henchman", so it had to follow Angor closely.
Angor and Lady Merlot's sudden appearance helped Brazier out of his predicament. After all, he couldn't think of a good answer to Glaus' question.
However, even though they had managed to get out of the predicament, their current state had been seen through.
The air around them became heavy and silent.
Lady Merlo finally understood why Angor asked the other talents to stay in the illusion. What she was seeing now was too much for her to bear.
When they left the prison, they saw two naked men hanging upside down from a crooked tree at the entrance.
At that time, the scene was already a direct hit.
And the current scene was probably countless times more unbearable than the one back then.
Glaus and Brazier were not only tied up in the air, but also tied up in an extremely unsightly and shameful way that humans couldn't easily do.
It was hard to describe with words. They were shocked by how flexible a human body could be.
Due to the strange way they were tied up, they even neglected to notice a certain part of their body that was swollen.
Of course, what Dorcas called "real art" was still the best part.
This kind of rope technique that was not messy, had rhythm, and was extremely pleasing to the eye. Coupled with this posture, it was the best.
