Looking at Dorcas' excited expression, Angor could tell that the man was addicted to watching drama.
"Mister Aesos wouldn't send me here if he really wanted to test Kael. Besides, you know Kael better than I do. Do you really think he needs to be tested? "
Dorcas thought about it seriously, then said, "Aside from his passion for research, Cael doesn't have any other bad habits, so there's no need … No, he often owes me money for drinks at my bar, so that should be a good test, right?"
Angor didn't bother replying. He just stared at Dorcas, who chuckled awkwardly. "Haha, I'm just trying to lighten the mood."
"Mister Aesos sent me here to see Kael for another reason. The letter said that if you really want to know, you can ask Kael yourself when we get back. See if he's willing to tell you. "
Angor didn't say anything else after that.
Gondola traveled very quickly, and it didn't take long for it to pass through the lush forest. When it reappeared, it was already a vast expanse of yellow sand.
Although Dorcas was a little annoying, it had to be said that if Dorcas wasn't around, it would take him at least twice as long to find the correct path in this vast expanse of yellow sand.
When they arrived at the black market outside the Sandworm Market, the sun had just risen above their heads.
When he saw the colorful cactus, he subconsciously took a step back. Dorcas also took a step back, just a little bit more than Angor did.
Before Angor could say anything, Dorcas spoke first. "Don't say that you paid the entrance fee last time. I should be the one paying this time. I'm here to accompany you. You're the one who wants to see Kael, so I won't pay. "
Angor didn't know what to say. He did want to say that they would each pay the entrance fee.
Since Dorcas didn't want to pay, Angor had no other choice. He put on a smile and took out Dankros from his bracelet.
As soon as Dangros appeared, he asked, "Is it safe now? I told you, I'm not afraid of danger. Don't put me in your bracelet next time. It's all dark there, and Hydland won't talk to me. "
Before going to the dungeon of the Queen's Castle, Angor put Dankros inside his bracelet to avoid the curious Dankros' endless questions by telling him that the trip was too dangerous.
"It's safe now. Look, we've returned to Rasukam." Angor smiled. "Dankros, I have something to discuss with you. Do you still have the little sandworm I gave you last time?"
After a while, the cactus that had absorbed 10 drops of sandworm blood opened the door of the black market in satisfaction.
Angor walked in first, followed by Dorcas.
Dorcas was speechless when he saw Dankros comforting the little worm on Angor's shoulder with a pained look.
Through the Spirit Bond, Dorcas said, "You even recycle the things you gave your elemental companions. I didn't know that the famous extra-dimensional sorcerer was such a stingy person. "
"That little worm won't die anyway," said Angor.
Dorcas continued to speak through the Spirit Bond. "Indeed, it won't die, but it has already bled twice, and its foundation has been shaken. Even if it grows into an adult in the future, its appearance will be affected. Also, aren't you afraid that your elemental partner will leave you? "
Angor wanted to explain that Dankros was not his elemental partner yet. But on second thought, if he told Dankros that a fire elemental spirit wandered around without a master, it would probably attract a bunch of hunters. So, he decided to just admit it.
"Leave me? No way. Dankros' idol is another one of my elemental companions. But he's not with me right now. I can introduce him to you next time. "
Dorcas asked, "Are you talking about the little bird that's been following you?"
It was no secret in the wizarding world that there was always a gray bird following Angor around. Some gossip magazines even did in-depth analysis on the bird.
Of course, they could not find anything. In the end, they only concluded that the bird was Angor's secret weapon. After all, Angor would not carry a common bird around with him.
From a certain point of view, this conclusion of a secret weapon was actually not wrong.
Now, with the help of the Pool of Life, Toby was able to use his serpentine form. Angor was already having trouble fighting Toby in his griffin form. He had yet to fight Toby in his serpentine form, but he knew that his chances of winning were slim.
"Next time, if you see each other, don't call each other birds. It's called Toby. "
Dorcas asked, "So, Dan Gross' object of worship is Toby?"
"Hmph. Can't I?"
Dorcas shook his head and did not say anything else.
A strange severed hand worshiped a gray and dirty little bird. Dorcas felt that this world was too strange.
After passing through the bustling black market, they soon arrived at the former Demonic Blood Mine, the place where Kael currently lived.
Once again, Angor contacted the space node and waited for Kael to open the portal.
They thought that they would have to wait for a long time, but Kal-El appeared in front of them after only two minutes.
Right now, Kael looked even more haggard than when they first met. The dark circles under his eyes were almost smoky, his hair was a mess, and his clothes were wrinkled.
Seeing this, Dorcas sighed and cast a strengthened Cleanse spell on Kael.
Kael gladly accepted it, and even used his hand to brush his hair back. It was a simple hairstyle that didn't require a comb.
"This guy doesn't even need to use Cleanse when he's doing his research. Every time, someone would give him a Cleanse spell because they can't stand it. But when he's not doing his research, he's much more normal, "Dorcas explained in a low voice.
Dorcas looked at Kael, who had already dressed himself up nicely. "So, you've solved the question on the envelope?"
Kael opened the Dimensional Door and gestured for everyone to enter as he proudly said, "Of course. You don't know this, but the topic this time was a trap within a trap. It even tested my psychological blind spot. As expected of an instructor."
Seeing that Kael was about to go on, Dorcas spoke in a casual tone, "The final answer is inside the trap, right?"
Kael paused and looked at Dorcas in surprise. "Mister Dorcas, how … how did you know?"
"I'm a wizard, after all."
Kael nodded in realization. A wizard's knowledge was indeed different. He could even solve a difficult question about space.
However, Kael's admiration only lasted for a second. "So, if I don't know how to do it, I can always ask other wizards for help."
"Isn't that right, Wizard Leon?"
Angor was speechless.
Kael nodded, "So Wizard Lyon also knows about space. Is Wizard Lyon a space element as well?"
Suddenly, Kael's eyes lit up. "I see. Did Professor Aesos arrange for Wizard Lyon to guide me in my research? That must be it, right? "
Angor remained silent while Dorcas chuckled on the side.
A moment later, Dorcas moved closer to Kael. "Didn't you solve the puzzle? Why haven't you opened your professor's letter yet?"
"Since Wizard Leon sent it to me, I must open it in front of him. That's the rule," Kael said in a serious tone.
Dorcas rolled his eyes speechlessly. Talking about rules again? What kind of rules were these?
When they returned to the first hall, Kael finally took out Aesop's envelope.
When they thought Kael was going to open the letter, Kael approached Angor and asked him how he found the answer.
Of course, Angor couldn't tell Kael that he just learned a bunch of advanced knowledge about space from Spotted Puppy. Kael's answer to this kind of question was simply using a higher dimension to crush a lower one.
However, it was only theoretical knowledge that had reached the peak. If he really had to use it, he would be far inferior to Kael.
Since Kael's question was also theoretical, Angor decided to give Kael some advice.
Kael learned a lot from Angor's simple advice. Kael learned a lot from Angor.
When Kael looked at Angor again, he already considered Angor as "Aesop's space professor".
Angor didn't say anything. He only smiled and asked Kael to open the letter.
Without wasting any time, Kael removed the seal and took out a piece of parchment.
Dorcas tried to sneak a peek, but he quickly realized that it was an encrypted letter. He couldn't understand the words inside at all. It was written in the language of space manipulation.
Angor could understand it, but he didn't need to read it to know what it was. He was curious about what Aesop asked him to make for Kael.
Kael's expression was normal at first, but it soon became strange. When he put down the letter, he stared at Angor in shock.
"You … you're not a space professor?"
"I never said I'm a space professor," Angor said.
"You're not Wizard Leon either?"
"Yeah. It's normal to use a fake name when you're outside."
"You're … a super dimensional wizard? The new member of the research department? A master enchantment alchemist? "
"Yes. It's written in the letter. What else do you want to know? Why don't you ask all at once? It'll save time. "
Kael looked a little embarrassed. "I-I'm just … surprised. I didn't think a super dimensional wizard would know so much about space. "
"Well, you're a wizard. It's normal for you to know more about space." Angor glanced at Dorcas.
Dorcas looked away in annoyance.
"Alright. Let's put that aside for now. Mister Aesop already told you everything in the letter. Now, let's talk about the main topic. "
Kael nodded without thinking.
Angor considered for a moment. "Do we need an outsider to leave us alone?"
Dorcas was giving Kael a flirtatious look.
Kael considered and said, "It's fine if Mister Dorcas stays here. He won't understand it anyway."
Dorcas' expression darkened. "… You don't need to say the second part. You're underestimating me."
Kael quickly explained, "I'm not underestimating you, sir. It's just that the content of the letter is about —"
"Since Red Sword is so confident, why don't we take a gamble? Show him the item first. If he can solve it, we'll be lucky. Also, give him the reward Sir Aesos promised in the letter. If he can't solve it, he can give Kael something else. Of course, it has to be as valuable as Mister Aesop's reward. "
Karel's eyes lit up as he looked at Dorcas expectantly.
Dorcas looked at Angor. "You're quite good at fanning the flames."
Angor gave him an innocent look. "I'm helping you. Don't let Kael look down on you."
Kael didn't dare to nod, but his eyes said it all.
Dorcas understood that Kael was not lying when he said "he definitely wouldn't be able to understand" when he saw the two of them echoing each other. The content of the letter was probably beyond Kael's knowledge.
"You know how powerful Mister Aesop is," Dorcas said, "it's normal for outsiders not to understand the content. Let's forget about the bet. Let's talk about the main topic and broaden my horizons. "
Kael was a little disappointed. But since Angor didn't say anything, he had to accept the result. Originally, he had wanted to swindle some resources from Dorcas. If an official Magus were to give him a bit of wisdom, it would have allowed him to make great progress.
What Kael didn't know was that Dorcas wouldn't accept the bet even if Angor continued to taunt him. Dorcas was a flexible man. Besides, he also had a talent that Angor admired — Spirit Sense.
Apart from Prophet, Dorcas was the best wizard Angor had ever seen when it came to avoiding danger.
Since they were back on topic, Angor put away his carefree attitude. "Mister Aesop asked me to make something for you. The blueprint looks strange. Is it true?"
Kael nodded seriously. "Yes. I found this alchemy blueprint during my travels. My professor saw it and said that the runes on it are enchantment runes, which he couldn't decipher. Also, the blueprint has a self-destruct mechanism. If something goes wrong with the runes, the real blueprint hidden inside will be destroyed.
"That's why my professor didn't try to decipher the secret of the blueprint.
"Aside from the runes on the outside, do you know what the alchemy blueprint is?"
Since he needed to remove the enchanted runes to get the blueprint, why didn't Sir Aesos tell him to remove the runes? Instead, he asked him to craft the item on the blueprint.
Didn't this mean that Aesop and Kael knew what was inside?
"I do know what the blueprint is. But it's a long story. You'll understand when Mister Aesop sees it. "
