Angor left the Chest of Sisia and appeared in front of everyone with an apologetic look. "Sorry to keep you waiting."
Wail moved closer to him and said, "It's fine. We didn't wait long."
"Almost half an hour. That's not a long time outside, but in the Chest of Sisia, it's probably more than half a day." The lazy voice was undoubtedly Dorcas.
Dorcas was sitting on the ground. He slowly stood up when he saw Angor. "Did your deal take that long?"
"Actually, I didn't stay in the chest for long. Sisia removed the time difference for a long time."
Angor was being honest. At least, Dorcas didn't think Angor was lying.
"Did she remove the time difference because of your deal?" Dorcas asked curiously.
"Sort of." Angor didn't try to hide it.
Dorcas narrowed his eyes. "Don't tell me you made something in Sisia's chest that can't be seen?"
"???"
Dorcas spoke in a matter-of-fact manner, "A woman who's been alone for ten thousand years needs some entertainment and relaxation. Hey, hey, hey, what's with that look? Did I say something wrong?"
No one answered Dorcas' question. Instead, they all turned their heads away, as if trying to avoid suspicion. Even Black Earl "stared" at Dorcas with a strange "look" — his nostrils flaring up and down — for three seconds.
It didn't matter if he occasionally made dirty jokes. The Chest of Sisia was right next to him, and Dorcas dared to say such things. He was also a warrior. After all, Sisia was an old monster who had lived for ten thousand years. They didn't know how strong she was. They could only hope that Sisia didn't check the situation outside when Dorcas spoke.
Black Earl finally broke the silence. "By the way, the Traveling Merchants already passed through the area of the Witch's Eyes and entered the Stinking Sewer."
Wail was surprised. "That's fast. Didn't they get caught by the Witch's Eyes? "
The Black Earl replied, "Yes. They even alerted the two Wizard level Witch Eye Ghouls."
"However, the people who caught up this time are all gray merchants wearing gray masks. They know the underground maze very well. Moreover, when they encountered obstacles, they didn't attack together. Instead, they split up."
"For example, there's a gray merchant who uses illusions and a gray merchant who can disturb the mind of the Witch's Eyes. They stay outside to attract hatred while avoiding the pursuit of the Witch's Eyes."
"Everyone else, continue forward."
One of them has a clear goal. They're probably chasing after us. They've already entered the smelly ditch. As long as they don't take the wrong path, they shouldn't be far from the alternate dimension. "
Angor rubbed his chin. "Then we should get out of here as soon as possible."
"Let's go. Since we already have the tickets, we can talk as we walk."
Angor opened his hand, and the glowing red rune slowly rose into the air.
Without another word, he walked to the end of the platform.
This time, the alchemy puppet didn't stop him. The red rune floated from Angor's palm to his front and illuminated the stairs below.
Under the illumination of the red light, the illusory stairs slowly became solid.
However, if Angor stepped on a new step, the stairs would slowly become illusory again.
Seeing that Angor had successfully reached the top, the others quickly followed him.
As long as there was a red symbol, it would smoothly pass the puppet's inspection. Dorcas was the only exception. When he walked past the alchemy puppet, a beam of red light suddenly appeared under his feet.
Dorcas reacted quickly, but the red light was faster than him. It turned into a hand and grabbed Dorcas's ankle. With a gentle pull, Dorcas lost his balance and fell toward the edge of the platform.
However, since everyone was watching, they couldn't just watch Dorcas fall down. A pale blue hand of magic grabbed Dorcas's other ankle and pulled him up again.
Dorcas successfully returned to the platform, and the hand formed by the red light slowly disappeared. As soon as the red light disappeared, everyone heard a familiar sneer.
"I think it's the one from Sisia's Chest —"
"Don't 'think' it's Sisia."
As she spoke, Dorcas got up from the ground with an indignant look on his face. He even cursed and accused Cecia of kicking him to the curb after he'd outlived his usefulness.
However, Sisia didn't answer him.
Everyone looked at each other with tacit understanding in their eyes. They could only say that Dorcas sometimes acted too carelessly and didn't care about his bottom line. It was only a matter of time before Dorcas would retaliate. This was probably the "freedom" Dorcas was looking for. However, when he was free, other people would be affected by his freedom and even get hurt. Was this really freedom?
After cursing for a while, Dorcas finally stopped and prepared to step onto the stairs again.
However, the alchemy puppet stopped him this time.
Before Dorcas could figure out what was going on, Vael spoke in a small voice, "When you fell down, your 'ticket' also fell down."
Dorcas was dumbfounded. "Aren't these tickets always with us? Aren't your tickets always floating in front of you? Why did mine fall down?"
Wa Yi hesitated for a moment before replying, "It's probably because you were given special treatment."
When Dorcas heard this, his hair stood on end again, and he shouted, "Why?"
Count Black, who had been ignoring Dorcas all this time, snorted. "Don't you know why you're being treated differently? That's what you get for speaking without thinking. The rules of this dimension are not decided by you or me. Unless you have the ability to break the dimension, you can do whatever you want. If you can't, then follow the rules. "
Angor spoke up as well, "You have two choices now. Either buy a new ticket, or come to my exile space for now. I'll let you out after you leave."
Dorcas already knew why Sisia was treating him like this. However, he didn't want to embarrass himself in front of so many people, so he pretended to be angry. From the fact that he only dared to curse the alchemy puppets and never mentioned Sisya, it could be seen that he was actually scared.
Now that Angor had presented him with two choices, Dorcas didn't want to waste time. After a moment of silence, he took a deep breath and said, "I'll buy a new ticket!"
Angor raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything. He didn't understand why Dorcas insisted on changing his ticket, but he wouldn't stop him since it was Dorcas' decision.
After some hesitation, Dorcas took out a fine-looking knight's rapier from his space storage.
The rapier looked similar to Dorcas' red sword, but it didn't emit much energy ripples. As an alchemist, Angor could tell that the rapier was well-made and could be used by almost any apprentice. Besides, the rapier was well maintained over the years, which made it easier to use compared to a newly made rapier.
"Dorcas, you're going to use the rapier to buy a ticket? Have you thought it through? "Vale looked at Dorcas with a face full of shock.
Dorcas also looked hesitant, but he still put the rapier back into Sisia's Chest. "It's useless anyway. I'll just change it."
As the rapier fell into the Casket of Sisia, Sisia's voice floated out from the casket. This time, everyone heard it.
"You're brave enough to give up your own sword. But you better sew your mouth shut from now on. " Sisia's voice was cold. "For the sake of Noah's descendant and Angor, I'll let you go this time. But there won't be a next time."
As soon as he finished speaking, a red light mark floated out of the box and floated above Dorcas's palm.
Dorcas looked at the ticket and cursed in his mind. Next time? I promise we'll never see each other again.
This time, Dorcas had learned his lesson. He only cursed silently and didn't say it out loud.
With the ticket, Dorcas was no longer stopped by the alchemy puppets and stepped onto the stairs.
"Let's go," Dorcas said, "I don't want to stay here any longer."
Angor didn't say anything. He turned around and led the way.
Vael came to Dorcas and whispered, "I didn't think you'd give up the rapier."
Kael also heard Vael's words and asked curiously, "What does this sword mean to Mister Red Sword?"
Wa Yi glanced at Dorcas. Seeing that he didn't mind, he replied, "This is the sword he used before he became an official Magus. He spent all his savings to buy it at an auction in Mesopotamia, and he's been using it for decades. "
Vael paused. "I think Dorcas doesn't care as much about his red sword as he does about this rapier."
Vael didn't try to hide his words, so Angor also heard it. He said in surprise, "You're willing to part with a sword that means so much to you?"
Dorcas grumbled, "I don't want to give it up. But I have a feeling that if I take something that doesn't mean much to me again, that woman will give me a hard time. I had no choice but to take it out! "
"Is that your inspiration? How did your inspiration come back so quickly? "
Dorcas said, "No, it's just a feeling. I think it's that woman's doing. "
"So this is Sisia's test for you?" Angor asked.
No wonder Sisia said something like, "You're brave enough to give up your own sword." If Dorcas took out something else, Sisia would probably give him a hard time.
"That bitch … damn it!"
Vael complained in a low voice, "If you didn't say that in the Spirit Bond, you'd say it better."
Dorcas learned his lesson and didn't dare to speak carelessly. If that woman could monitor the entire dimension, he would be in big trouble again.
Still, Dorcas was a little annoyed by Vael's words. "Stop talking about me. That woman said she would let me go for the sake of Angor and Noah's descendants. I don't know what kind of deal Angor made with that woman, so it's normal for her to give him some face. But how did the Noah Clan get involved with that woman? "
Wa Yi also paused at this moment because he didn't know what was going on, so he could only look at the Black Earl.
Black Earl didn't say anything.
Angor spoke up, "Sisia is an old friend of an ancestor of the Noah Clan. She told me about it before."
Black Earl already guessed that Angor would ask about his conversation with Sisia. Now that Angor mentioned it, it meant that he did ask about it.
Otherwise, Sisia wouldn't tell Angor about the Noah Clan for no reason.
Black Earl wasn't angry. It was normal for Angor to ask about the Noah Clan using his "connections". Angor's honesty dispelled some of Black Earl's suspicions.
However, Count Dark also wanted to know how far Angor's inquiry had progressed. This also showed how "close" Angor was to Sisia.
Since Angor didn't try to hide it, Black Earl asked directly, "Did Sisia tell you about the ancestor of the Noah Clan?"
Angor replied, "Sort of. I know some of the story, such as the name of that ancestor and the daughter of a ruler. Other than that, there's nothing else … However, the ancestor of the Noah Clan that Cece described made me think of something. "
"What is it?" Black Earl quickly asked.
Angor shrugged. "Let's keep it a secret for now. If necessary, I'll tell you when the time comes."
It was up to him whether he wanted to tell them or not. However, he did add that he would tell them if it was necessary, which made everyone think about something else.
"Is it related to the expedition?" Black Earl asked.
"I don't know yet. It's fine if it's not related. But if it's related to the expedition, then it's closely related. "
Angor chuckled. "Don't worry. I'll tell you as soon as I find any clues. If not, it won't do me any good. "
Dorcas grumbled, "Can't you just tell us so we can learn something?"
Angor chuckled. "If it's related to the expedition, I'll tell you for the sake of the team. But if it's not, you won't get it for free. "
Dorcas put a hand on his pouch. "What do you mean?"
"Nothing. Just an equivalent exchange."
He stopped here and repeated the number in his mind. One, two, three, three …
When he reached "10", a familiar energy wave connected to him.
It was the private line between Black Earl and Angor.
"Are you hinting at me?" Black Earl asked.
"Is that supposed to be a hint? Isn't it obvious? "
Angor asked Black Earl to look back.
Black Earl looked back and saw everyone was looking at him and Angor. Clearly, they all knew what was going on.
Black Earl also heard Wai's voice in his mind. "Is the wizard hinting at something, sir?"
Black Earl was speechless. "Hinting, my ass. Obvious."
Black Earl cursed and continued to talk to Angor, "So you're interested in something I have?"
"Does knowledge count?" Angor asked.
Black Earl chuckled. "Yes. But knowledge isn't cheap."
Angor changed the topic. "Mister Black Earl, didn't you say we can talk to each other?"
"Yes. But I'm talking about my real body. Do you dare to come to Noah Clan?"
"Why not?" Angor said.
The Black Earl said, "Come alone."
Angor refused without hesitation. "Then I'll pass. I'll bring Mister Rein, Iron Granny, and my professor, or I won't be able to go back. If you want me to come alone, I'll pass. It's fine if we don't trade. "
Black Earl was speechless.
"Do you know what I'm thinking right now?"
Angor shrugged.
"I'm thinking that you're related to that Wood Spirit by blood, right? I don't know who's more cowardly, you or it? "
Angor didn't mind Black Earl's sarcasm. Previously, he had been going around in circles because he wanted to exchange for something similar to Wa Yi's crystal ball. According to Sisya, the crystal ball could only delay Jon's condition. Still, it was enough. He didn't expect Jon to be cured right away, but he could at least delay his condition for a while.
Actually, Sunders already came up with several ways to delay Jon's condition. Still, it wouldn't hurt to have more options.
However, Angor didn't know how to trade for Black Earl's crystal ball yet.
The so-called deal was just a precautionary measure.
Maybe he could get Dark Count's crystal ball through Way. After all, Way used his crystal ball to buy a ticket and asked Angor to order one himself. Angor didn't even care about the price. At that time, he could borrow the Black Earl's crystal ball to take a look. Then, he might be able to succeed.
"Fine. I accept your trade for now. I just hope your information won't be useless." After mocking Angor for a while, Count Dark agreed to Angor's "equivalent exchange".
"Then I'll pray that the information I'm looking for doesn't overlap with the information I'm looking for." Angor pretended to pray.
Black Earl humphed. "I'm not that stingy. If it's useful information, I won't take advantage of it for free. "
Angor quickly expressed his gratitude and put on a flattering look as if he was saying, "As expected, sir, you're the best."
Black Earl was about to ask if Angor got any other information about the Noah Clan from Sisia, but Angor beat him to it.
"We're going to look for Wood Spirits after we leave the dimension. I received some interesting information about the Wood Spirits from Silesia. "
Angor didn't use Black Earl's private channel this time. Instead, he spoke to the others directly.
"Interesting? What do you mean? "
"You'll know when you see this."
While speaking, he spread out his hands.
