Since Igor had already co up with a thod, Kuren and Joseph were eager to give it a try. Firstly, they were curious to see whether this thod would work. Secondly, they were deeply concerned about the situation outside, especially the safety of the Great ntor.
"Now that we've found a way, all that's left is to try it," Igor said, itching to act. He naturally wanted to verify his guess and, of course, help the Great ntor outside.
Most importantly, Igor wanted to validate his suspicions about the Inner World. Although these things might sound mysterious, Igor still believed they could be possible. This was especially true for what Kuren had told him about the nurous monsters in Guru Mountain, several of whom were supposedly Awakeners. This made Igor even more eager to get in touch with those monsters outside.
As Igor pondered, he recalled that quite a few monsters—No, I should call them seniors—had been notable figures of the Empire, according to the narratives of Great ntor Guzan. He had not yet t most of them. If I can get out of this cave, I must get to know these seniors properly.
"We should think about what to ask now and how to get the most information from the simplest questions," Joseph suggested. Despite their eagerness, both he and Kuren remained calm and lucid, refraining from hastily revealing their situation to the outside world.
"Mind you, Igor, our understanding of the outside situation is limited, so we must not leak our information blindly. We should tread cautiously and not act impulsively. Therefore, Joseph's suggestion is quite pertinent. We need to carefully consider what to ask, and it might be better to disguise those questions."
Both Kuren and Joseph were very cautious, a display of their instincts. Experienced veterans could distinguish a dangerous situation from a safe one, setting them apart from neophytes like Igor.
As for Kadi, he was still trying to comprehend what all the previous conversations ant. Although he had made so progress, it was limited to ditation. Participating in such high-level discussions was still overwhelming for him, so he just stood aside, silently waiting for instructions. He was okay with any instructions, whether they ca from Igor, Kuren, or Joseph.
"You're right, seniors. Since I haven't experienced any of this, I know very little about it. Considering the urgency, we should act swiftly. As for the questions, I'm new to Guru Mountain and quite ignorant; you'll have to co up with sothing," Igor admitted frankly. He genuinely didn't know how to pass on this crucial information.
"We may not need to disguise the questions, Kuren." After Igor had finished speaking, Joseph began to discuss this with Kuren. It was natural that they had a mutual understanding.
"Oh, why so? If it's the Great ntor and Xiso outside, recognizing disguised signals from us would be no trouble at all," Kuren said.
Despite their mutual understanding, the two still had slight points of divergence.
"A disguise is rely a trivial trap in Spirit Power. If the opponents can hold off even Xiso and the team, wouldn't they be able to identify such petty tricks?" Joseph raised his objection to Kuren. As the Grey Eagle of Grey Eagle Peak, his insight was not to be underestimated.
"Hmm..." Kuren pondered after listening, seeming to agree with Joseph's reasoning.
"I think Senior Joseph is right. If I were to try, I could figure out these disguises myself. So, whether to use disguises or not doesn't really make a significant difference. We need to co up with a question that only insiders could comprehend," Igor suggested from nearby. He had his own perspective on everything, and his reactions, whether endorsing or vetoing, were always instant, especially under such ti constraints.
"Your points are reasonable; I overlooked that. I was dwelling on the glory of our victory two years ago and neglected the current situation. If the enemy was able to break through the array of Dawn Peak, these disguises would not work at all. Nevertheless, what kind of information should we transmit? This is indeed a matter of grave concern."
Kadi watched them scratching their heads and furrowing their brows, wondering, What problem could be so difficult as to make them all look so troubled?
"Could I speak up?" Kadi had listened cautiously for a while and sowhat understood their problems and difficulties. Therefore, he wanted to participate in the discussion. Even though he knew his opinions might not be useful, he still felt an impulse to try.
"Of course, you can. Just express your thoughts like last ti; your ideas are quite helpful," Kuren encouraged Kadi. They were genuinely stuck at a bottleneck and couldn't co up with any effective solutions. At this mont, they would welco any new perspective to shake up their conventional thinking.
"Actually, transmitting a ssage that only we can understand is quite simple," Kadi said.
"Oh?" Igor, Kuren, and Joseph turned simultaneously towards Kadi. The problem that had been troubling them for so long was, in Kadi's eyes, a simple one—which was sowhat incredible.
"We just need to pass a ssage in a language only we monsters understand. Can they decipher our language?" Kadi said.
"Monster's language?" Igor was baffled.
"As long as we use the monster's language, we can get whatever answers we want to our questions. Why should we complicate the situation?" Kadi added.
Joseph and Kuren shared a glance, then burst out laughing in unison. That was true; this problem did seem simple, and they had overcomplicated it. The more problems there are, the easier it is to forget the basics.
"What's the monster's language?" Now, only Igor was left in the dark, completely perplexed.
This was exactly the effect Kuren and Joseph wanted—not on Igor, of course, but on the unidentified enemies outside.
"Kadi is right. If we use the monsters' language, even those scoundrels from the Alchemy Workshop won't be able to decipher it," Joseph said, his eyes lit up as if he had discovered sothing wonderful.
"True. We might have stopped using the monster's language for a while and might be a bit rusty, but we still rember how to use it," Kuren said, beginning to recall.
For now, no one addressed Igor's question, leaving him completely ignored and feeling quite awkward.
Kadi was still concerned about Igor. Seeing his anxious curiosity, Kadi patiently explained, "It's just our monster language. It's normal that you don't understand, as you're not a monster, after all."
Although Kadi's explanation seed ordinary, its impact was actually quite potent. Igor froze as if struck by a bomb, his face darkening.
