On the other side of the underground arena.
Following Elder Tree's request, Black Earl went to deal with the remaining matters of the confinement array.
Angor's group planned to return to Starry Street first.
When he left, there was a small incident. "Purple Flame" Gaino, the vice leader of Bilos Clan,
Stopped them from leaving.
Gaino didn't say anything rude, but he was implying that they should stay and cooperate with the investigation.
It wasn't Gaino's idea. Elder Yue and Yakee were the ones behind it.
Elder Yue just woke up not long ago, so she didn't know what happened next. But she did know that Witch Sharon controlled Paradise Game.
Angor and Dorcas entered the game with special identities, which was quite unusual. Yakee, on the other hand, further discovered Angor's special status in Paradise Game.
Even Witch Sharon couldn't control Angor's group. Yakee didn't know the reason until he learned about the "contract power" from Elder Tree. He quickly realized that everyone in Paradise Game was affected by the contract except Angor and Dorcas.
Therefore, Elder Tree was curious about Angor and Dorcas … as well as suspicious.
In normal people's minds, they would only know about the contract power if they were related to the attacker.
Even though Angor's group fought the attackers fiercely, Sharon did not suffer any real damage. Elder Yue believed that this was a trap set up by a "friend" who went easy on Sharon.
However, Gaino knew that Dorcas came out of the underground sewer together with Black Earl.
He was sure that Dorcas wasn't a friend of the attacker, and Angor's identity was unknown. If the attacker really left a friend here, it must be Angor.
However, Gaino still didn't think that Angor was a friend of the attacker. Black Earl did come to "question" Angor before, and Black Earl didn't say anything. So Gaino believed that Angor wasn't a friend.
Helpless against Elder Yue's strong request and Yakee's instigation, Gai Nuo thought about it and finally came over.
To Gaino's surprise, the descendant of Black Earl rushed to him as if he was flying.
"If you want to investigate them, you can directly investigate my Lord." Wa Yi paused: "This, this is what my Lord said!"
The "My Lord" that Wa Yi was referring to was the Black Earl.
If this was the Dark Earl's intention, Gaynor really dared to continue intercepting him.
Gaynor hesitated for a moment before turning to look at the Dark Earl in the distance. The Black Earl seemed to have noticed his gaze and said, "If it's Wa Yi, then he'll be the first to speak.
That's what I mean. "
After the Black Earl said this, the Black Earl said,
His gaze slowly swept over Gai Nuo, Elder Tree, Elder Yue and the others.
"I know what you're thinking. Put away your pitiful thoughts … They'll be fine. Instead of venting your anger on outsiders, it would be better to thoroughly investigate your internal affairs. Perhaps the internal affairs of the Bilos Family have already been infiltrated to the point of being riddled with holes. "
Black Earl's words were a little harsh. Moreover, he directly pointed out that there was a parasite in their ranks.
Elder Tree actually knew that there was a problem internally, but at the moment, he only wanted to gloss it over. He would only investigate the internal affairs after the Black Earl and the others left.
Elder Tree believed that the Black Earl also knew what he was thinking.
Previously, the Black Earl had tacitly agreed not to mention this matter. But now, he directly pointed it out, which made Elder Tree's expression sour.
However, this also allowed everyone here, including Elder Tree, to understand something else: the Black Earl valued Angor and Dorcas very much.
They all knew who Dorcas was, and they even had dealings with each other in the past. Was there anything about him that the Black Earl valued? They did not know. At least, they could not find anything.
Therefore, it was very likely that the Black Earl valued someone else.
They did not know who Angor was, but if the Black Earl valued him so much, he might have a very powerful background.
Even though Elder Tree was a little embarrassed that the Black Earl had pointed out their internal problems, he still forced himself to remain calm and said to Gaynor, "Don't make things difficult for these two adepts. If it weren't for them delaying the attackers, we wouldn't even have been able to set up the confinement array. From this, we can tell that they won't have any problems. "
Elder Tree gave Angor a friendly smile.
With Elder Tree's words, Gai Nuo naturally agreed.
Elder Yue, on the other hand, had something to say. But as soon as she spoke, Elder Tree threw a cold glance at her. "Why would the attackers choose this time to attack? Because they knew I took most of my men to the ruin. "
"But even if I took some people away, there were still some who stayed in the Billon Tree Garden. But why did the Billon Tree Garden still fall? When they attacked, there was no one inside. There wasn't even a single wizard. Tell me, where did those wizards go? "
Elder Yue did not realize it at first. But after thinking carefully, he understood what Elder Tree meant.
Those wizards … all came to Paradise.
Including Elder Yue, who was also in Paradise.
It was not a big deal for Elder Yue to be alone in Paradise. However, Elder Yue also brought Seahawk, Yakee, and Nighttree with him.
That was why the Billon Tree Garden was completely defenseless.
Elder Tree did not think it was right. He did not suspect Elder Yue, but someone must have leaked Elder Yue's plan. And it must be one of Elder Yue's henchmen.
Otherwise, why would Elder Yue's sudden decision to bring people to Paradise be captured and used by the attackers?
Previously, Elder Tree didn't mention it because he didn't want to deal with internal problems now and didn't want to immediately fall out.
But since the Black Earl had already pointed out the window, he didn't care anymore.
Elder Yue could not even clear her own name. What right did she have to stop others?
Elder Yue wanted to refute Elder Tree's question, but she did not know what to say. Besides, if she were in Elder Tree's position, she would also doubt herself.
After a moment of silence, Elder Yue spoke in a low voice, "I'll cooperate with the investigation."
Elder Tree humphed and did not say anything else.
…
After watching the Billon Family increasing their stakes, Angor left Paradise with Dorcas and Kael.
This time, no one dared to stop them.
Lucia also wanted to take a car and leave with them, but several wizards from the Billon Family blocked her way.
Dark Earl would not help Lucia, so she had no choice but to stay in Paradise and watch as Angor and the others slowly disappeared from sight.
Their return to Star Street went without a hitch.
However, there were more strangers loitering around the cleaning room at the entrance of Star Street. They seemed to be gathering in the woods to avoid the "attackers", but Angor could sense that they were not afraid at all. They kept glancing at the cleaning room.
Clearly, they already knew that the attackers had left.
Apart from them, only the Billon Family and the wizard named Ullus knew about the attackers' departure.
Wu Lusi had yet to leave Paradise Land, so these strangers were undoubtedly from the Bi Luo family.
Their purpose was obvious. They were here to keep an eye on people coming and going in Star Street.
From this, it could be seen that the Bi Luo family had put in a lot of effort … It should be known that in the past, only the core members of the Bi Luo family knew about the entrance to Star Street. Now, even the ordinary members knew about it. It could be seen that Elder Tree was determined to investigate thoroughly this time.
Still, even if they knew that the cleaning room was the entrance, it would not affect the people inside Star Street much.
This was because the location of the entrance could be changed.
Once this was over, Lucia would definitely change the entrance. Of course, Lucia had to leave safely from the Billon Family's investigation.
They had nothing to do with Angor anyway, so they didn't care about those people watching them. They entered Starry Street without hesitation.
It was Dorcas' first time here, but he had been to all kinds of wizard markets before, including some hidden black markets, so he was not too curious about this place.
Kael, on the other hand, was still looking around even though he had been here before.
The main reason was that … when they first came here, there was almost no one here. The only two people they met were the instigators of the attack. But now, the street was filled with people.
People gathered in groups of twos and threes, whispering to each other or talking loudly. It looked like a human market.
This was in stark contrast to the deserted street they saw in the morning.
While walking towards the inn, Kael overheard quite a few conversations on the streets. As expected, they were all talking about the attackers. Only a small number of people saw the attack with their own eyes. However, the people around them all talked about it as if they saw it with their own eyes.
Some people even said they saw the attackers with their own eyes. As for the details, they described the attackers in all kinds of descriptions. Eight arms and four eyes, winged bodies, and some even described them as mermaids.
The reason was that the guild district was talking about the development of mermaids' bloodline. Since the guild district was the most affected area, people began to make up stories.
It had to be said that regardless of whether it was mortals or superhumans, there was basically no difference when it came to the exaggeration of rumors and their passion for gossip.
It was not that they were dying of amusement. It was just that they did not feel the pain as long as the fire did not reach them.
Soon, Angor and the others arrived at the inn.
It was Bru who was waiting at the counter as usual. However, most people were talking about the attack outside, so there was no one inside the inn. There was no one at the counter either.
Bru rested his head on his hands and stared blankly at the window.
When Angor and the others came to the counter, Bru finally snapped out of his daze.
Bru was surprised to see Angor's face. "You're back, dear guest?" Do you have any requests? "
Angor took out the membership card he got from Lucia and handed it to Dorcas. "Release your information element to activate the card."
Next, he pointed at Dorcas and said, "Give him a soundproof room."
Bru nodded without hesitation. "Yes, sir."
After Dorcas booked a room, Angor considered for a moment and handed his membership card to Bru. "Upgrade my soundproof room to a deep soundproof one as well."
Angor's room was just a regular soundproof room. The only difference between a regular soundproof room and a soundproof room was that the soundproof room had an anti-prophecy effect.
Even though the anti-prophecy effect of the Deep Silence Room was not of much use to him, the Normal Silence Room and the Deep Silence Room both cost 10 Magic Crystals a day. Since he had already gotten the membership card, it would not hurt to change to a more advanced Silence Room.
The card he took out was a diamond card, which cost 9,999 magic crystals to get. Bru's attitude became even more respectful after seeing the card.
In less than two seconds, both Angor and Dorcas had their rooms ready.
Kael's room was the same as before. As for Count Black's room … they did not need to worry about that. Now that Count Black was here, Bru would be a fool if he did not get a soundproof room.
After checking in, Bru led everyone to their respective rooms.
Kael was the only one who returned to his room to meditate. Dorcas followed Angor to his soundproof room after confirming the location of his room.
Dorcas was here to see the mysterious mirror made by Angor.
Angor knew what Dorcas was thinking. However, he did not show Dorcas the Unbreakable Heart Mirror even after Dorcas sat down on the sofa.
"W-where's the mirror?" Dorcas couldn't help but ask.
"As I said, I need some time to settle down. I'll talk about the mirror after that."
Dorcas gave Angor a doubtful look. "Do you look like you need time to settle down?"
"It's not about whether I look like it or not. I'm asking you, do you think I need time to settle down? "
Dorcas couldn't refute this time.
Dorcas doubted that Angor was using "settling down" as an excuse. But Angor had just created a Mysterious Mirror. No matter how he looked at it, Angor needed to go through a deep meditation room. Otherwise, why would he use a soundproof chamber?
Dorcas sighed. "Fine. I was going to check the mirror, but since you need time to settle down, I'll go back first."
After he finished speaking, Dorcas walked outside.
When Dorcas was about to step out of the door, Angor spoke in a small voice, "Count Black sent me a message. He seems to know Aikor's class already."
Dorcas looked at Angor in surprise. "What class is he?"
Angor shrugged. "How am I supposed to know? But Mister Dark Earl will be here soon. You'll know then."
When Dorcas heard this, he immediately closed the door and sat back down.
Putting everything else aside, he was really concerned about Aixen's matter.
