Maybe it was because he had been experiencing too many ups and downs, but he was now numb to it. Even when Angor told him that there was a way to retrieve his sealed memories, Gray Merchant didn't show much excitement. He thought it was just another empty promise.
Even Dorcas didn't believe Angor's words. "Didn't you say it's empty? What, now you're saying you have a solution? "
"I do have a way. But whether it works or not is another matter."
Dorcas didn't know what to say.
He did have some "ideas", but as he said, they were still in his mind and had not been put into practice yet. He could not tell whether the result would be good or bad.
Angor continued, "There are two methods I'm talking about. The first is to wait."
Waiting was actually asking for help.
Angor wanted the lens for research purposes. He had Mirror's Wrath, which allowed him to know a thing or two about the mirror dimension. He might be able to crack Adanis's sealed memories after studying it.
But asking for help had a downside — it required time to do research. Therefore, if they wanted to use this method, the grey merchant would have to wait.
As for how long? Angor wasn't sure.
"Waiting for a while is waiting. Waiting until death is also waiting. What's the difference between this method and bullshit? Besides, if you wait until the end, it'll be a waste of time, "Dorcas complained.
Because of Dorcas' complaint, Gray Merchant's group began to have a better impression of Dorcas. They used to look down on egoists like Dorcas. But now, they were in a different time and space, so their opinions had changed.
Besides, Dorcas' complaint also helped Gray Merchant answer his question. If Gray Merchant was the one to answer, he would probably be too tactful to be understood. Dorcas' complaint was sharp and direct. It went straight to the heart of the matter, which was much better than Gray Merchant's answer.
Angor wasn't annoyed by Dorcas' complaint. Instead, he nodded and admitted, "You're right. Waiting does have a lot of drawbacks."
Dorcas felt strange after hearing Angor's words. He began to wonder if he was being too harsh.
"Actually, this method isn't impossible. After all, if we really use research methods to find a way to crack it, then we'll be able to do it. Right now, you're probably the only one who can see hope. "Dorcas added after a moment of thought.
So far, Angor was the only one who could look into the mirror, which meant he had the highest chance of success.
"Regardless of success or failure, waiting is the last resort. Let's put that aside for now and talk about the most immediate solution. "
"The second method is to ask for help."
Since he couldn't ask for help from himself, he naturally had to ask for help from others.
In his mind, there were two ways to ask for help. One was to go to the big bosses in the dream wasteland, while the other was to ask the friendly man in the void.
If Angor was not mistaken, the man hiding in the void was the male half of the Mirror Demon's emblem.
Since the woman on the demonic god's emblem, Adanis, had the ability to seal people's memories, then the other "him" on the emblem might have a similar ability. Even if he didn't, he should know how to remove the seal.
Angor already had an idea, but he didn't say it out loud. Going to the dream wasteland or looking for the man in the void was a secret, so he couldn't say it out loud right now.
Therefore, his words stopped at the word "begging". Then he began to think about how to express his request.
However, his silence was taken as a hint by the others, who began to fill in the gaps in their minds.
Ask for help? Who?
The only one who could solve this problem was Hidden Mirror Man. Of course, it wasn't Hidden Mirror Man. If Hidden Mirror Man asked for help, Angor could just give the mirror to Grey Merchant.
Who else could it be other than Hidden Mirror Man?
Rein? Angor's backer? Although the analogy was a little wrong, the Black Earl and Rhine were existences of the same level after all. Their knowledge and experience shouldn't be too far apart. Even the Black Earl didn't have a solution, so how could Rhine have one?
What about Lady Mirror or the Elder of Books? According to rumors, Lady Mirror hadn't shown up for a while. She didn't even attend the tea party, so Angor might not be able to meet her.
As for the Elder of Books, even Brute Cavern couldn't meet him. How could Angor meet him?
Besides, even if Angor did meet the Elder of Books, it wouldn't be the "best solution" he could think of.
Angor couldn't go to the Elder of Books through a plane passageway, and then come back. Angor might not care about such a luxurious method, but Grey Merchant might not. After all, Grey Merchant needed Angor's help, and he couldn't possibly ask Angor to pay for the materials.
Grey Merchant, on the other hand, wouldn't be in a hurry. If Grey Merchant knew that Angor was going to find the Elder of Books, he would wait for Angor to come out instead of using a plane passageway.
Of course, it would be a different story if they knew that Angor had a teleportation array disc that could teleport him back to Brute Cavern.
Since Angor didn't ask for help, and he clearly said that it was the "best solution" they could think of …
"Best solution …"
Everyone pondered over Angor's words and found an answer.
They slowly looked up and saw the Wise Ruler floating in the air, who hadn't said anything for a long time.
Did Angor mean to ask the Wise Ruler for help?
Now that they thought about it, they had forgotten about the Wise Ruler. Now that they thought about it carefully, they realized that the Wise Ruler was related to the Hidden Mirror Monster. Besides, the Wise Ruler had lived in the underground waterway for ten thousand years, and he must have seen what the Hidden Mirror Monster could do.
Besides, Phantom Slave and the Cyclops all had an unbreakable connection with the Wise Ruler, and they could freely enter and exit the mirror. They were all subordinates of the Wise Ruler. They might be rebellious, but the Wise Ruler must know more about the mirror world than anyone else.
Perhaps the Wise Ruler was the only solution they could think of right now.
…
Even the Wise Overseer took Angor's words as a request for help.
When everyone looked at him, the Wise Ruler sighed in his mind. "There is a way to remove the seal, but you need to fulfill two conditions."
Everyone's eyes lit up. Angor was right! The Wise Ruler did have a solution!
Angor, on the other hand, was surprised. The Wise Ruler had a solution? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Why did I have to think so much about it?
But when he saw Wai's admiring look, as well as everyone else's "I knew it" look, Angor realized something.
When he said he needed help, he was asking the Wise Ruler for help!
Angor accepted the explanation and looked at the Wise Ruler with a "wise" look.
The Wise Ruler didn't think too much about Angor's strange look. With a wave of his hand, Angor felt something pulling the fragment away.
He hesitated for a moment and let the gravity pull the fragment away.
The fragment slowly floated into the air, landing in the Sovereign of Wisdom's palm.
The Wise Ruler looked at the broken mirror and saw that the redness on it had faded away, leaving only a blurry mirror surface and a vague figure.
The Wise Ruler sighed again. He told Angor not to take the fragment, but the boy still did it.
The Wise Ruler didn't mind if Angor wanted to meddle with Gray Merchant's memories because Angor was the only one who could do it. However, the Wise Ruler didn't want Angor to enter the mirror world because of this.
Besides, the Wise Ruler had an agreement with the Goddess that he wouldn't stop anyone from entering the mirror world. The Wise Ruler agreed to it to make things easier for Netherworld Slave. But now, he couldn't tell Sunders what he wanted.
Fortunately, Dorcas' talent of Intuition was triggered, which alerted Angor about the danger inside the mirror world. Otherwise, Angor wouldn't have known what would happen to him.
The Wise Ruler reached out a finger and ran it across the mirror.
It was as if he was wiping the dust off the surface of the mirror.
After a long while, the Wise Sovereign shifted his gaze away from the lens and lowered his head to look at the crowd.
"May I know which two conditions I have to fulfill, Lord Judge?" Gray Merchant bowed to the Wise Ruler and asked.
"Delivery from the inside and receiving from the outside," the Wise Ruler replied.
There were indeed two conditions, and they were very straightforward to understand. However, when Hui Shang heard these two conditions, he frowned.
"You mean someone has to enter the mirror, Lord Judge?" Gray Merchant asked.
The Wise Ruler shook his head. "Not necessarily. The hardest condition isn't 'delivery from the inside'. It's' receiving from the outside '. "
Gray Merchant and the others were puzzled. As far as they knew, 'delivery from the inside' meant 'delivery from the inside', while 'receiving from the outside' meant 'receiving from the outside'.
Obviously, 'delivery from the inside' was harder. But why did the judge say that 'receiving from the outside' was harder?
The Wise Sovereign: "That's because there are actually quite a few creatures that can roam the mirror world. However, there are very few people who can directly touch the world inside the mirror from outside the mirror with their physical body as a medium. "
Among all of you, he's the only one who can do it. "
The Wise Overseer tossed the shard into Angor's hand, which drew a bright arc in the air and landed precisely on his palm.
The Wise Ruler was not only returning the fragment to Angor, but also telling Gray Merchant that Angor was the only one who could "receive from the outside".
Gray Merchant understood. The so-called 'receiving from the outside' didn't mean what he expected at all. He just had to wait outside for someone to deliver the fragment to him. Instead, someone had to use their body as a medium to reach into the mirror and receive the sealed memory from the creature inside.
On the other hand, the Magus who called himself Elmi had put his hand into the mirror in front of everyone. No wonder the judge said he was the only one who could do it.
When he thought about it this way, what the Lord Referee said about it being more difficult to receive outside help was not without reason.
However, the problem now was that Elmi seemed to have the intention to strike a deal with him. In other words, it seemed like there was a chance for them to accept the deal from the outside. On the other hand, they still didn't know how to satisfy the Lord Judge's request for them to accept the deal from the inside.
Before Gray Merchant could ask the judge, Elmi's voice came from the other side of the mirror.
"If these are the only two conditions, I think I know what to do."
Gray Merchant looked at Angor in surprise. He didn't know how to do it before.
"If you only need someone who can travel inside the mirror world, I can find one."
As a matter of fact, Angor already thought of the name "Mirror's Grudge" when he heard the Wise Ruler's explanation. If Mirror's Grudge could touch the fragment, it might actually be able to enter the mirror world without any problems.
However, Mirror's Grudge was not easy to control. Besides, Angor didn't want to keep it forever, considering what Mirror's Grudge had done. Once Angor finished studying the mirror space, he would send it to the afterlife.
For this reason, Angor didn't say anything even though he already had an idea.
He only spoke now because the Wise Ruler asked him to.
Angor didn't know why the Wise Ruler took the broken fragment away. When the Wise Ruler returned it to him, Angor was surprised to see that the Wise Ruler left some information on it.
Angor learned that the Wise Man used a special method to contact the Cyclops Family after obtaining the mirror.
The Wise Ruler meant that he could help Angor solve the "memory transfer" condition. He would ask any one of Slave You's children to hand over the sealed memories from within.
However, they had to wait until they got past Hidden Slave's blockade.
It wasn't the Wise Ruler's decision. It was One-Eye Dabao's idea.
Although One-Eye Dabao didn't explain it to the Wise Ruler, Angor could guess what the Wise Ruler was thinking.
The Wise Sovereign had said before that although the three treasures of the One-Eyed Clan were more biased towards him than Adanis, if one were to compare him with Underworld Slave, there was no doubt that he would be biased towards Underworld Slave. After all, Hidden Slave was their mother.
One-Eye Dabao would only help them after they got past Hidden Slave's blockade. This was also a warning. If they were to injure or even kill Hidden Slave while dealing with Hidden Slave, then there was no need for them to help.
The only way to get help from the Cyclops Family was to avoid harming Hidden Slave when they got past Hidden Slave's blockade.
This was the first piece of information the Wise Sovereign had left behind on the fragment.
The second message was what Angor told Gray Merchant earlier.
The Wise Ruler didn't want to expose himself, so even if Gray Merchant's memory was sent out, it would be done by Angor. At least on the surface, it had nothing to do with the Wise Ruler.
This was all of the information the Wise Sovereign had left behind on the fragment. The general contents were explained, but the Wise Sovereign didn't say why he was willing to help. Also, did he need anything in return for what he had done?
Angor didn't think too much about it. If the Wise Ruler really wanted something in return, Angor would simply pass it on to Gray Merchant.
Besides, this wasn't something he should consider right now.
