"Kael's gone!" Wai turned around and yelled in panic.
But Dorcas and Count Black remained silent. Wai's yelling didn't attract their attention.
Wai wanted to ask Angor for help, but when he looked closer, he realized that Kael wasn't the only one missing. Angor was gone as well.
"Mister Hyperdimension … Kael …" Wai took several steps back in shock.
"Don't look so surprised. I know they're gone." Dorcas finally recovered and spoke to Wai.
Wa Yi was still in a daze. "They, how did they suddenly disappear? What happened? "
"It's nothing. I think Kael accidentally stepped on a dog hole and fell in. Angor saw it and jumped in as well."
Wa Yi: "And then?"
Dorcas nodded. "Nothing. That's all."
Wa Yi's suppressed anger was ignited in an instant. "You call this fine?! Tell me, where's the dog hole around here?! "
Towards the end of his clamor, Wa Yi's voice suddenly lowered as he muttered to himself, "Dog hole? You mean dog hole? "
"You mean … Phantom Slave?"
"Don't be so loud." Dorcas scratched his ear. "No, not Phantom Slave. It must be one of the Three One-Eyed Treasures. I've thought about it. Since they're Phantom Slave's children, I don't think they'll kill Angor."
Wa Yi's expression was not relaxed, and he said solemnly, "In any case, I'm not sure. He didn't dare to be certain about the Sovereign Sage's words, nor did he dare to be certain given the One-Eyed Clan's temperament. What if they really did attack? "
"I don't think Angor will get hurt if we really do it," said Dorcas.
"What about Kael?"
"Kael … well, he's on his own now."
Wai's anger rose again after hearing Dorcas' irresponsible words. Just then, Dark Earl's voice rang out. "Don't worry. Unlike the previous dog hole, I don't sense any malicious intent or danger this time."
Count Black had been using his sense of smell to locate dog holes, so he was more sensitive to them than anyone else. Although he could not tell if the dog hole that appeared this time belonged to Da Bao or Er Bao, he could still tell if there was any malice or murderous intent.
Besides, Angor was able to follow Kael into the dog hole in time. How could the Dark Earl not notice it?
The reason why the Dark Earl did not follow them in was very simple. He knew very well that if he wanted to pass through Netherworld Slave's obstruction without harming him, he would have to rely on the Magic Array to solve the problem. Angor was the only one who could do it. Going into the dog hole would only create more pressure and burden. It was better for Angor to go alone.
Count Dark knew everything Angor did during this period, and he believed that Angor would be able to handle the situation perfectly.
Therefore, they didn't need to do anything now. They just needed to wait.
…
At the same time, Angor and Kael found themselves in a pitch-black space.
Kael looked around with a puzzled expression. He clearly remembered that he had fallen into a very small hole, and he didn't feel like he had landed. How did he end up here?
The space was quite big. There were walls everywhere, and there were no windows, windows, or light. It was like a dark prison.
More importantly, Kael realized that he could not use his spirit power to check the blind spots hidden in the darkness.
Kael did not know how to do that either, which made him a little nervous.
In other words, the only thing Kael could use right now was his eyes, and the eyes were the easiest to deceive.
If Kael was here alone, he would have been terrified and lost by now. Fortunately, Lord Chaowei was beside him, which calmed Kael down a little.
"Sir, this is —"
"Inside Da Bao or Er Bao's stomach." While answering Kael's question, he secretly ordered Elmi to spread his shadow around the area.
Angor's spirit power was suppressed as well, but there was a limit to the effect. He could still break it by force. However, Angor had to be extra careful in an unknown place.
His spirit power was not strong enough, and he would be in a passive position if he was targeted.
Therefore, Angor connected his vision with Elmi's. Elmi's vision was pure energy, which allowed him to see everything clearly.
In other words, Elmi could completely replace Angor's spirit power. In fact, Elmi was even stronger than Angor's spirit power.
If nothing happened to Elmi, Angor would be more relieved.
Angor shook his head and put aside the possibility of Elmi regaining consciousness for now. He carefully observed his surroundings.
Before, he could only see empty space with his naked eyes. But now, Elmi's vision allowed him to see a cluster of darkness not far away.
It was a pure darkness that was constantly expanding and contracting.
It looked like a fog sphere that was purposely keeping the fog from spreading out. However, the fog here had turned into a flickering darkness.
If it was just a ball of darkness, Angor would probably pay attention to it first before moving on to check if there were any other traps or exits.
However, this dark sphere was slightly different.
Angor could sense the emotions inside the dark sphere. They were complicated, but they were not pure malice.
If one were to use a human analogy, it would be like a gentleman who was usually calm and collected suddenly finding an unknown object in front of him that piqued his curiosity. He did not dare to touch it directly, but instead carefully observed it.
At first glance, there didn't seem to be anything wrong, but on second thought, who was the unknown object that this steady "gentleman" was observing? Angor and Cael.
In the eyes of the unknown object, Cael and Cael were nothing more than objects. And "unknown" only meant "valuable" or "worthless".
Even though the other party didn't show any malice, this kind of indifference to life as an object was actually more impactful than malice.
Leaving aside its worldview and values, the dark sphere should belong to one of the three "Younu" mentioned by the Wise Overseer.
"We're in its stomach? How … how do we get out? "Cael moved closer to Angor out of instinct.
"We'll have to ask the owner of this place why he invited us here."
"The owner of this place? You mean One-eyed Dabao and One-eyed Erbao? "Cael looked around, but didn't see any 'people'.
Angor nodded. "To be precise, we're inside One-Eye Dabao's body."
He looked at the black orb and asked, "Want to talk? Should I keep calling you One-Eye Dabao, or do you want me to call you something else? "
Cael followed Angor's gaze and did not see anything. But he trusted Angor's judgment, so he did the same.
After staring at it for half a minute, Kael finally saw a reflection of the dark sphere in his vision.
It was just a shadow that did not really appear in the physical world. It was still in the energy perspective.
Angor was a little surprised to see the reflection. The sphere clearly knew that Angor could see it, but it still chose to show itself. This meant that the sphere was cooperating with Cael. Cael spent so much effort to create a projection in the material world for an apprentice. Did this count as "sincerity"?
After the projection of the dark orb appeared, it also gave itself an eye and a mouth to speak in a very human-like manner.
The eye was oval, with 90% of the white part of the eye. The pupil was a small black dot, while the mouth took up half of the sphere. Angor could see two white fangs protruding from the mouth.
He knew that the eyes and mouth were only created by the sphere, but they still looked like a cartoon character he saw in his tablet.
"Or do you want me to call you 'Ghost'?" Angor tried to hold back his urge.
Angor's sudden words broke the gloomy atmosphere of the dark orb.
"Ghost Si? Is that what you humans call us? "
The voice came from the dark orb, which sounded much younger than Angor expected. He thought the voice would sound like an old man, but it sounded much younger and more mature.
"No, wait. Her Majesty said that us three brothers are unique. Humans can't have a common name for us. "
It sounded like a simple statement, but Angor could tell that the sphere was doubting him.
Angor explained with a serious look, "Ghost Si is a type of spirit creature that looks similar to the one you're showing right now. So I thought there's a spirit creature hiding inside the core of One-Eyed Dabao. "
The dark sphere narrowed its eyes as if trying to figure out if Angor was telling the truth.
Several seconds later, the sphere spoke in a low voice, "There's both truth and falsehood. I don't like to guess what's true and what's false."
Angor was surprised. He didn't expect the dark sphere to be able to tell if someone was telling the truth.
He didn't sense anything similar to Word of Truth.
No … They were inside One-Eyed Dabao's body. The sphere might not be able to detect them if it wanted to.
With this in mind, he became a little more serious. It seemed that he should avoid using words that were too obvious when speaking unless it was absolutely necessary.
"Never mind. Names don't matter to me. You can call me One-Eyed Dabao or Ghost Si," said the sphere. After a pause, the ball of darkness added, "However, let me remind you. If it's Er Bao now, I'm afraid you won't have it easy."
"It's going to kill me?"
"No. It'll use all kinds of methods to make you feel uncomfortable. For example, it'll project your embarrassing image onto a mirror that can detect your aura. Whether you're in the southern wizardry region or in other worlds, it can locate your aura. "
Angor was speechless.
The Wise Overseer said that One-Eyed Dabao was mysterious, profound, and extremely powerful. Now it seemed that Angor was right. Compared to physical death, Er Bao had learned how to cause social death.
Moreover, it was a "Great Hunt" type of social death. Even if someone escaped to another world, they wouldn't be able to escape its pursuit.
Mysterious, profound, and now paranoid.
"It's my wish to have a peaceful talk with you. But can you speak for the whole team? Can you speak for Noah's descendants?" One-Eyed Dabao went back to the main topic.
"Of course I can. Since I'm here, it means I can speak for the others. If you don't believe me, Ghost Si, you can ask the apprentice beside me. "
One-Eyed Dabao paused for two seconds. It probably didn't expect Angor to really call it Ghost Si.
It also said that it didn't mind being called any name, so it couldn't take it back now. It could only pretend that it didn't hear anything.
"You're telling the truth. I agree. But before we talk, I need you to answer me a question. "
"You want to ask me how I know you're One-Eyed Dabao?"
One-eyed Dabao's expression was complicated. After a long while, he said, "… Yes."
"The Wise Overseer once said that Netherslave's three children all have different personalities. He can tell who you are from your personalities."
One-Eyed Dabao really wanted to ask: But how did you know when I didn't even say anything?
But before One-Eyed Dabao could ask, Angor already knew the answer. "One-Eyed Baby is impatient. It won't drag us into this space and just observe us for a long time. One-Eyed Baby is not familiar with its behavior, but according to the Wise Overseer, it will observe us from the dark instead of staying in this space and waiting for us to find it.
"So the only one left is One-Eyed Dabao, or you, Ghost Si." Angor paused. "Also, the Wise Overseer said that you promised to give me Gray Merchant's memory. You can only do that after we get past Netherslave. But the closer we are to the Wise Overseer's palace, the more I thought that Ghost Si should show up when we're about to face Netherslave.
"With this in mind, I expected you to show up."
One-Eyed Dabao believed that Angor's reason was real. What it did not know was that Angor's reasons were all true, but he did not tell all of them. For example, Angor didn't mention anything about One-Eyed Dabao's identity because of his Ultra Perception.
One-eyed Dabao: "Your answer is true. I accept your answer. Now, we can talk peacefully — "
"Wait," said Angor.
One-Eyed Dabao looked at Angor in confusion. Wasn't Angor the one who suggested this? Why did he suddenly stop?
"I've answered your question. For the sake of fairness, shouldn't you answer mine as well?" Angor asked.
One-Eyed Dabao didn't say anything. It only signaled Angor with its single eye.
"There are so many of us. Why did you pick this one?" Angor pointed at Kael.
There were so many people walking together, yet the One-Eyed Dabao chose to pull Khael away? If Angor didn't notice it in time, Kael would be dead by now.
He wanted to know why Cyclops Dabao chose Cael as his first choice.
