Angor didn't try to hide his work. Strictly speaking, this wasn't alchemy at all. It was molded by heat. Moreover, it was molded into a lecture table that was not difficult at all. Any Magus could do it.
As for drawing runes, he didn't need to hide it either. After all, it was a technique that came with encryption.
While Angor was busy with his work, everyone else was occupied with their own thoughts.
The only person he didn't read was probably Khael. He was wandering around the underground church on his own. Khael's reputation as a traveler of ruins wouldn't disappear just because of the smoke here. Apart from the possible existence of a magic array, the underground church itself had many ancient traces that were worth studying.
Dorcas, on the other hand, was lazily leaning against the railing on the second floor with one leg dangling in the air. He held a bottle of blackberry wine in his hand and drank while looking at Angor on the podium. It looked like he was doing nothing, but the constant changes in his expression told Angor that his "inner monkey" had already run off somewhere.
Vaey was sitting on a bench under the podium, seemingly praying. But in fact, he was communicating with Count Black through his bloodline connection.
"My Lord …" After calling him by his honorific, Wa Yi paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about the wording: "Is the place we are exploring really related to our Noah Clan?"
Count Black humphed in Vaey's mind. "Trying to hide your thoughts in front of me? What you want to know the most is what I saw on the desk, right? "
Vaey hesitated a little. "I'm just worried that it's a secret. I don't want to ask."
After a moment of silence, the Black Earl sent a voice transmission, "I'll answer your initial question first. I'm not sure if this exploration has anything to do with our Noah Clan, but the probability is very high. If I can connect to my real body, or at least three of my organs, I should be able to get a definite answer. But … "
Vaey understood what Count Black was trying to say. The verbal confrontation between the Super Dimensional Sorcerer and his master was still vivid in his mind.
"I don't know the answer, but that boy must know something," Count Black said.
Otherwise, Angor wouldn't have asked Count Black to not connect to his organs or his real body.
"The hyperdimensional wizard probably foresaw something, didn't he?"
Black Earl said, "That's not important. Although he didn't say anything, his request has already been tacitly agreed. This exploration of the ruins will definitely involve the Noah Clan."
Of course, this still did not make Black Earl certain that the ruins were related to the Noah Clan. Perhaps the ancestors of the Noah Clan had something to do with this ruin, but it wasn't necessarily the Noah Clan's ruin.
After all, the Noah Family back then was not a big family, and they should not have reached the core level of Nether City.
People of different social classes would come into contact with different things. The ancestors of the Noah Family did not necessarily have access to the underground maze, let alone the official organization inside.
It was because of these different considerations that the Black Earl did not dare to jump to a conclusion.
At the same time, Count Dark couldn't help but curse Angor in his mind again. If Angor didn't make that stupid request, he wouldn't be in such a passive position.
The Black Earl did not say anything, but as a Mind Communicator who shared the same bloodline, Vay heard everything clearly.
Vay was partial to the Noah Clan, but as Angor's new fan, he still couldn't help but interrupt the Black Earl's cursing.
Of course, he used a legitimate reason.
"Sir, does the rune on the table really have something to do with the Noah Clan?"
Black Earl: "Of course. But it's nothing special. It mentioned someone, and that person is an ancestor of the Noah Clan. Also, he's the most mysterious ancestor with the least recorded history in our family tree. "
"You're right, sir …" Vay was a member of the Noah Clan, so he had memorized the family tree before. Now that Black Earl mentioned it, a name popped up in his mind.
"Yes, it's him," Black Earl said.
After receiving Black Earl's confirmation, Wa Yi remained silent for a while before his mood lifted. It must be known that he was not willing to explore any ruins. Compared to this kind of excursion, he preferred to stay at home.
But now that he was sure that the ruins might have something to do with that mysterious ancestor, things were different.
Vay had always been curious about that mysterious ancestor since he was a child. This was his childhood dream of becoming a legend, and also the envy of the unknown when he was a teenager.
This feeling had not disappeared until now. Now, the "idol" that he had chased after when he was young had suddenly barged into his thoughts in such a way. How could he not be excited?
"Sir, what did the Demon Cult disciples say about him?"
Black Earl: "They didn't say anything else. They only recorded his name on the table, and used some special runes to show how important he was. Perhaps this ancestor of ours had an indispensable role in the events that happened back then. "
However, tens of thousands of years had passed, and the truth had long been buried in history.
Even the Noah Clan did not know what happened in Nether City. Perhaps the only one who knew the truth was the mysterious Elder of Books in Brute Cavern.
Unfortunately, the Elder of Books was rarely seen even by members of Brute Cavern, let alone outsiders.
Time passed as they sighed in silence.
When they recovered from their shock, Angor had already stood up from the ground.
Soon, a Spirit Bond was released from Angor's body and connected to everyone.
"Done?" Dorcas asked before Angor could say anything.
Angor: "Almost. Now let's see the final result."
While speaking, Angor picked up the "lecture table" beside him, which attracted everyone's attention.
Angor didn't mind the curious stares. He simply signaled them to do as they pleased. In the next second, his spiritual power wandered back and forth unscrupulously on the podium.
Apart from Black Earl, the only one who could recognize the materials used to replicate the lecture table was Angor.
Although the Dark Earl could recognize quite a number of mageweaths, including three-dimensional mageweaths, the combination and arrangement of mageweaths was a code that required both brain power and arithmetic power. He could barely tell which parts were activated and which parts were supplied with energy. As for the rest, he was still clueless.
"The table is made of the same material as the original one, so the runes used to control it should be the same," Angor explained while the others looked at the table.
"As for the pillar, I checked Raven's sword carefully just now. I'm sure there are no runes on the part of the pillar made from Human-faced Falcon Blood Ore. It's used to block the rune's energy by using a completely negative energy to prevent the runes from drilling into the ground. This method is a bit extreme and wasteful. You can always use a derivative of the Spirit Drill. Maybe the Human-faced Falcon Blood Ore was cheap back then? Regardless of whether this is the reason or not, the pillar I used was a derivative of the Spirit Transmitting Diamond. "
There were different types of Spirit Drill, so there were different types of derivatives. Hence, there was no fixed name for them. However, no matter what kind of derivative it was, they all had the same effect, which was to block the energy from flowing out of the Spirit Drill.
This was why Angor chose this cheap material to replace the Human-faced Falcon Blood Ore.
Angor explained his choice of materials and the reason behind it, but the others simply ignored him. They simply ignored him.
Only Black Earl understood what Angor was trying to say. "The Human-faced Falcon Blood Ore only blocked the rune's energy flow. Then according to the node flow method, the rune's energy flow should go in the opposite direction. In other words … "
Black Earl moved the stone slab upward and "looked" at the top of the underground church.
"You're right, sir. If I'm not mistaken, the runes should be hidden near the top."
The answer made Black Earl feel a bit emotional. He was the one who went to check the top of the church, while the others only checked the other floors. Black Earl found the rune card at the top of the church.
He thought the card was the only supernatural trace at the top of the church. But now, Angor told him that all the answers and truths were at the top.
Why did he have to check the top of the church?
The others didn't think too much about it, but Black Earl felt a bit uncomfortable.
"I've explained everything. All that's left is to test its effect." Angor inserted the desk into the groove on the ground. He didn't activate the rune right away. Instead, he looked at Wail.
"I don't know what will happen after the rune is activated. If anything happens, use the power of earth and protect the mortals in the tunnel."
Wail didn't expect to be the first one to be "entrusted" with such an important task. As expected, a super dimensional wizard valued him!
Wail nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry, sir. I'll make sure they're safe."
Next, Angor looked at Kael … and Dorcas.
Before Angor could say anything, Dorcas spoke first, "Now you want us to protect their supplies, right? Don't even think about it! "
"As expected of Dorcas." Angor smiled. This meant Dorcas was right again. Angor did want Dorcas and Kael to protect the supplies.
"I see. You don't have to do so much for the mortals."
While Dorcas had his own ideas, Angor also had his own.
Supernaturals were supernaturals. Angor didn't want to ruin the lives of mortals unless they crossed his bottom line. What's more, they were the intruders, and the Hero Team had helped them a lot.
This was why Angor needed to deal with the aftermath.
"Don't even think about it. I'm not going to protect this trash!"
Angor glanced at the blackberry bottle in Dorcas' hand.
Dorcas wanted to throw the bottle away, but there was still more than half of it. As a wine lover, he didn't want to do that.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Everything else is trash."
Angor was speechless. Is this what you call being flexible?
"I'm not asking for your opinion. I'm giving you a task."
Angor paused and repeated, "As the leader, I'm giving you a task."
Dorcas took a deep breath. "Alright, I'll listen to you this time. But my instinct tells me that activating the magic array won't do much damage to the underground church. "
He didn't need a hunch. If activating the magic array would cause a huge disturbance, would the Demon Church still dare to build a church here?
However, the present was different from the past. As a cloner, Angor had to choose different materials and make different copies. This was a variable.
If there was a variable, he had to consider the consequences. Even if the probability of the variable appearing was only one in ten thousand.
Besides, the great power of time was also the biggest variable.
Even if Angor had a theory, he still had to make the necessary arrangements.
Since Dorcas agreed, Kael couldn't refuse. Next, he looked at Dark Earl.
"Mister, it's simple. Activate the main rune and keep injecting mana into it."
Black Earl: "Can't use magic crystals?"
Angor shook his head. "As I said, the rune is only hidden, but it's still there. However, whether it's complete or not is another matter. After all, it's been a long time. If one of the runes is incomplete, I'll fix it right away.
"Once that happens, mister, you'll have to control the flow of mana. Not only must the magic array not collapse, but you also have to control the flow of mana according to my progress and speed of fixing the runes.
"Only you can do this, mister."
After hearing Angor's explanation, Black Earl began to think more highly of Angor. The young man was really thinking of a foolproof plan. He even considered the possibility of losing the runes after activating the magic array and needing to be repaired.
Also, the task was reasonable.
Black Earl didn't like the idea of taking care of ordinary people, but at least he gave everyone something to do. He didn't need to come here just to go through the motions.
The truly difficult task was still his and Angor's.
Of course, Black Earl's task was nothing for someone as experienced as him. However, no one else, not even Dorcas, could do it.
As for Angor's task, if something went wrong, it would be even harder than Black Earl's.
"Sure. Leave it to me," Black Earl said.
After pausing for a moment, the Dark Earl said something that was rarely out of the topic. Furthermore, it was a compliment. "You've done a good job as a leader."
"I'll do better as long as my teammates cooperate," Angor said in a meaningful tone.
"Don't push it." Black Earl was threatening Angor, but his tone was relaxed, which meant he wasn't really angry.
This was another sign of Count Dark's respect for Angor.
"Please don't misunderstand, mister. I didn't say anything." "That's all for now." Angor's expression returned to normal. "That's all for now."
"Let's begin, mister."
