After gathering for a moment, the light patterns began to take shape.
Soon, something familiar appeared in front of everyone.
"Book of truth?" Angel whispered.
Yes, what appeared in front of them was the mantra book composed of countless light patterns, and this mantra book exuded familiar fluctuations, the power of the earth, the power of blood, the power of elements, and... nightmare The power of illusion.
This is the mantra book that Angel and others used when they signed a contract with the wise master.
The wise master nodded: "In order to avoid your distrust of what I say, I will show my sincerity with this mantra book."
Everyone knows the rules of the book of mantras. You can't stop talking during questions and answers, but you can lie, but what is written on the pages of the book must not be false. The wise master took out the mantra book, obviously intending to use the pages as a basis to show his sincerity on some key issues.
This is also a good thing for everyone.
They may not necessarily believe the words of wise masters, but they will definitely believe the records in the mantra book.
The wise man ruled: "Everything is the same as before, abiding by the original rules."
Complying with the original rules means giving up the unique "game" of the mantra book, which is still a good thing for them. If they really want to play a game, they may not be able to deal with the wise master, this thousand-year-old fox.
After a pause, the wise man ruled: "As a reward for passing the trial, now is your time. You can ask questions."
Black Count: "Everything to do with the Legacy."
The wise master looked at the Black Earl: "Okay, this is what I promised you. But... before that, I still need to make sure one more thing. Have the records of the Noah family about the remaining land disappeared completely?"
Black Earl: "Why do you want to make this determination?"
Although the Black Earl only had one nose floating in the air and could not see his expression, the wise master could still hear the hidden meaning in his tone.
——The reason for making sure is to calculate the extent of tampering?
Wise Lord: "If I really want to make something up, will I tell you in advance?"
"Then what do you mean?"
"I just want an answer." The wise master paused at this point, "I have only been to the legacy when it was first built, and have not stepped into it in these years, so what changes have taken place inside, and the mysterious What Gustin left behind is mostly speculation. I need to get some answers from his descendants so that I can explain it to you better."
As the wise master spoke, he stretched out his fingers and input magic power into the book of mantras. Unlike before, the specialized screen did not appear again. This is normal. Only when the magic power is input for the first time, everyone's specialization screen will be displayed. This mantra book already contains everyone's magic power, so the specialization screen will no longer be displayed.
With the input of magic power, all the words spoken by the wise master appeared on the page, which also meant that his words were not lying.
However, the meaning of this sentence itself is also vague, and the mantra book cannot be used as absolute proof.
Because of this, the Black Earl was also hesitating on how to answer.
At this time, the wise master once again said: "It seems that you still have hesitation. So, I won't ask you how many records the Noah family has about the remaining land. I will only ask you two right and wrong questions, and it's up to you to decide. Do you answer on the page or do you answer orally.”
The Black Earl thought for a while and nodded: "Okay."
The wise master did not ask immediately, but glanced at everyone one by one: "I will ask questions on the pages of the mantra book, so you must answer my right or wrong question. In the same way, each of you is also free to choose Answer on the page or orally.”
The mantra book contains the magic power of everyone, so everyone is also the party being asked, and they must answer. This is the rule of the mantra book.
The answer on the page must be the truth, while the oral answer may be true or false. This requires a wise man to judge for himself.
Although everyone was a little confused, why didn't the wise master directly ask the black count verbally, so that they wouldn't have to answer. But considering that there was more than one descendant of Noah present, asking questions like this could be regarded as saving time, so I didn’t say much.
"I have written the first question into the mantra book. You can look at the pages in front of you." Soon, the wise master asked the first question.
"Do you know about the Clear Sky Poetry Chamber?"
Everyone looked at each other, Qingkong Poetry Room, what is this?
They didn't know where the Clear Sky Poetry Room was, but this question wasn't originally asked of them, so they all expressed their ignorance.
They basically answered verbally, and even Vai, a descendant of Noah, did not write the answers into the book of truth.
The only ones, no, the only ones who wrote the answers in the book of truth, were the Black Earl and... Angel.
The Black Earl actually wanted the wise master to guess whether he knew this place, but after thinking about it, why bother going in such a big circle. What's more, it may not be possible to hide it from the wise master.
As for Angel, he didn’t mean to join in the fun. Instead, he vaguely sensed that the Wise Master deliberately spread the right and wrong questions from the Black Earl to everyone, with a high probability that it was not Vai but himself.
Angel showed that he was very familiar with this place. Not to mention the wise master, it was difficult for almost everyone present not to doubt him.
Since the wise ruler was most likely testing himself, Angel didn't care and just answered.
If he really wanted to lie, Angel also wanted to see if the punishment from the book of truth would bounce back on him...or would it bounce back on the person from the nightmare world? After all, the energy Angel inputs into Zhensheng does not originate from himself.
However, there is no need to lie about this question. Angel really doesn’t know what the Clear Sky Poetry Room is.
So, his answer is: no.
And the Black Earl's answer is also: No.
The wise master first looked at the Black Earl and had no reaction to his answer. He looked at Angel again... The Wise Lord did intend to test Angel, and he believed Angel had guessed what he meant, but he didn't expect Angel to be so honest.
It was expected that Angel would answer verbally, but it turned out that he was the only one besides the Black Earl to write the real answer on the page.
The big "no" made the wise ruler narrow his eyes. In his imagination, Angel was too weird in this team, and Adanis paid an inexplicable amount of attention to them. It stands to reason that Angel should have an in-depth understanding of the legacy, and he should It’s only right to know about the Clear Sky Poetry Room, but the calm reaction of the Mantra Book means that the answer has been determined. Angel indeed does not know the existence of the Clear Sky Poetry Room.
Although the wise master was suspicious in his heart, he still did not show it and said to everyone: "This question is just to know whether the descendants of Noah still remember the story of Augustine, but now it seems that the descendants of Noah have forgotten him. story...it can only be said that her strategy worked."
"Her strategy?" Black Earl asked doubtfully.
The wise man ruled: "Don't be busy with this, I will explain it later. I will now ask the second question, which is also the last question of this yes/no question. After answering this, I will tell you everything I know. .”
After finishing speaking, the second right or wrong question appeared on the page in front of everyone.
"Have you ever heard of Orao?"
What is Orao? Is it a person or an object? Or is this some kind of indescribable abstract individual? Another question that puzzles everyone.
Except for Angel and Earl Black, everyone else still chose to answer verbally, which was the same as before: "No".
Angel and Earl Black did not hesitate, and soon their answers appeared on the pages of the book, and the same answer was: "No".
The wise master looked at the answer on the page this time and was silent for a long time.
The Black Earl did not know Orao, in his guess.
But Angel didn't know Orao, which made him a little confused. He had tested Adanis with words when he was in the main hall before; he also made careful observations when Angel confronted Adanis after entering the main hall.
Through trial and observation, the wise master can determine that Adanis has almost no understanding of Angel.
Under such circumstances, why did Adanis pay so much attention to Angel? There is even a feeling of wanting to get rid of it quickly?
The wise master can think of only one reason. That is related to..."him".
On the logo of the so-called Mirror Demon, there is a man and a woman, the woman represents Adanis, and the man represents Orao.
Orao's identity is extremely special. Adanis has never left the underground waterway, so the wise master guessed that it was related to Orao.
The only thing the wise master knows about that can arouse Adanis's emotions without dealing with her directly is related to Orao.
Even the wise master secretly asked Adanis about Orao's situation many times in front of Adanis, and Adanis could turn against her, let alone outsiders.
For this reason, the wise master inferred that the reason why Adanis dealt with Angel may have something to do with Orao. He deliberately asked Orao this time, mainly about Angel, not the Black Earl.
But what I didn't expect was that Angel actually gave a negative answer!
And the mantra book really revealed this answer, which means Angel still didn't lie! Angel had indeed never heard of Orao.
The wise ruler was a little confused now. So what would be the real reason for Adanis to deal with Angel?
The wise master pondered for a long time, but he still couldn't figure it out. What other answer could there be besides this answer?
In other words, Angel knows Orao as a person, but not the name Orao?
This is not impossible. Orao may have interacted with Angel using pseudonyms, just like the Black Earl, Angel, and Doakes used to call each other by code names.
Thinking of this, the wise master raised his head and wanted to ask Angel.
However, when he looked up, he realized that everyone was staring at him with doubts in their eyes.
It's true that the wise master was meditating for too long this time. He didn't speak for ten seconds in a row, and he didn't know what he was thinking?
The wise master coughed twice to relieve the stiff atmosphere, then took a dark piece of food from the table and stuffed it into his mouth, and then continued: "I just thought about something, let's continue."
The wise man rules: "The third question..."
Doakes: "And third question?"
The wise master said without changing his expression: "A question that came to mind at the moment is still a yes or no question. Don't worry, this is really the last one, I promise."
Although everyone was confused, the two previous questions asked by the wise master were incomprehensible, and they didn't know the answers, so they still didn't show too much resistance.
But when Angel saw the wise master smiling, his heart moved slightly.
He had a feeling that the last question the wise man wanted to ask might not be the Black Earl, but himself.
Soon, what the wise master called the last right or wrong question appeared on the page in front of them.
This time the title is very special, a painting actually appears.
This painting was familiar to everyone. It was the logo of the Mirror Demon God that they found in the first living area they encountered after entering the underground waterway.
It is now certain that the blond woman with a sideways face in the logo is Adanis.
They had met Adanis before, and her profile was indeed exactly the same as in the badge. It can be seen that Adanis was also among those who supported the demon believers.
But they have never seen the man wearing the hat in the logo. Even when I asked the Wise Lord before, the Wise Lord was very secretive.
Now, the wise master has displayed this logo on the page, and the question raised is related to this man.
“Have you ever seen or been in contact with the male in the logo?”
The people who asked this question were a little confused. Just when they were about to answer, the Black Earl was the first to say: "No."
This time, instead of writing on the pages of the mantra book, the Black Earl chose to answer directly.
The completely different choice from before surprised everyone slightly. However, after a little thought, they figured out what the Black Earl meant.
This question was improvised by the wise master, but it was obviously not prepared for the Black Earl.
Because, including the Black Earl, they had previously asked the Wise Lord about the man's information, the Wise Lord should have known at that time that the Black Earl did not recognize the man in the logo.
Now that the wise master suddenly mentioned this man, he obviously did not want to ask the Black Earl. Everyone is not stupid, and they are basically sure that the person he is really asking... is asking Angel.
Angel's behavior after entering the underground waterway does have a lot to be confused about. Moreover, some of the information he got was too strange.
For example... the branch road outside the Wise Man's Hall.
Before that, Angel was very sure that there was only one branch road from the prison ladder to the hall where the wise man ruled. It was precisely because of his determination that everyone could determine You Nu's location.
But how did Angel know that there was only one branch outside the Hall of the Wise?
You know, when they were traveling before, Angel still had to rely on Doakes' inspiration to make direction judgments. Why did he know everything as soon as he reached the prison ladder?
Although Angel said that he has special information channels, only important locations have information, and there is no information at other entrances and exits. Does this make sense?
Also... Adanis's name, and the timing when Angel told them were also weird.
To them, it seemed that Angel was as confused as them one second, and understood everything the next.
It seems that Angel was helped by an "invisible man" and was able to obtain information in a timely manner.
Could this person be the male in the badge?
And this is probably why the wise master raised this question. He wanted to determine whether Angel had ever interacted with the male in this badge.
Although everyone understood the clues to this problem, they were not willing to stand on the side of the wise master and question Angel. Even if Angel got help and didn't tell them, so what?
There is a contract between them, and it is impossible for Angel to harm them. What's more, the Black Earl also expressed his stance.
Yes, take a stand.
The Black Earl did not reply with the pages of the mantra book, which was a statement.
What everyone needs to do now is to follow the Black Earl's approach and answer the wise master. Of course, they still answer with their mouths instead of writing on the page.
Everyone answered one by one, and in the end only Angel was left silent.
According to the Black Earl's wishes, Angel had to answer directly with his mouth. In this case, the wise master wanted to speculate and judge for himself.
Even if Angel really had an encounter with the man in the logo, as long as he doesn't admit it, even if the Wise Lord sees something is wrong and doesn't believe Angel's words, for a worried person like the Wise Lord, even if he doesn't believe it, he will still To consider the possibility of more layers.
However, Angel did not do what the Black Earl thought.
He nodded slightly to the Black Earl, and he understood the Black Earl's kindness.
This time he still chose to write the answer in the mantra book.
And as the page floated with a halo, a big word "No" appeared.
