Perhaps it was because his emotions had been fluctuating earlier, now he felt sowhat numb. Even when he heard Angel say there was a way to retrieve the sealed mories, the Grey rchant didn’t show much excitent, thinking it was just another empty promise turned illusion dream.
Not to ntion the Grey rchant, even Dox looked skeptical: "Didn’t you just say it was empty inside? How co now you have a way?"
Angel: "There is indeed a way, but whether it will work or not is another matter."
Dox: "..."
Angel did have so "ways," but as he said, these thods were still theoretical, untested, so he couldn’t predict whether the outco would be good or bad.
Angel continued his line of thought: "The thod I’m talking about roughly divides into two types, the first one is waiting."
The so-called waiting is actually relying on oneself.
Angel wanted this mirror to conduct research. He himself had the Mirror Grudge and knew a bit about the mirror space, so through research, he might find a way to crack Adanis’s mory seal.
However, the downside of relying on oneself is that it requires ti for research. So, if the Grey rchant chooses this thod, he needs to wait.
As for how long to wait? Angel couldn’t be sure either.
"Waiting a while is waiting. Waiting until you die is also waiting. Is there any difference between this thod and nonsense? Besides, waiting till the end with no results isn’t that a waste of ti." Dox’s sarcastic comnt ca as expected.
Because of Dox’s sarcasm, the group opposite Grey rchant’s perception of Dox skyrocketed. Originally, they looked down on such a self-serving person like Dox, but now, in this different ti-space environnt, their views had changed.
Moreover, Dox’s sarcasm indirectly answered for the Grey rchant. If the Grey rchant were to answer, he would likely be so tactful that no one could understand him. Dox’s sharp and direct sarcasm went straight to the core of the problem, clearly better than what the Grey rchant would have said.
Angel wasn’t annoyed at Dox’s sarcasm, instead, he nodded in agreent: "What you said is true, waiting indeed has many drawbacks."
Hearing Angel admit this himself, Dox, though finding it strange, started to wonder if he had spoken too harshly.
"Actually, this thod isn’t impossible. After all, if we really find a way through research. Now, the only one who can see hope in this regard is probably you." After pondering for a mont, Dox added this.
Currently, only Angel could delve into the mirror, so if they were to take this path, Angel probably had the highest success rate.
"No matter success or failure, waiting is ultimately the final thod. Let’s put it aside for now and talk about the most imdiate thod."
Angel: "The second thod I ntioned is seeking help."
If relying on oneself fails, naturally, one seeks help from others.
In Angel’s idea, seeking help is divided into two types: one is seeking assistance from big shots in the Wilderness of Dreams; the other is seeking help from the man in void from earlier, who showed goodwill.
If Angel’s guess is correct, the man hidden in the void previously should be the male half on the Mirror Demon God emblem.
Since the female on the Demon God emblem, Adanis, has the ability to seal people’s mories, the other "he" on the emblem might have a similar ability. Even if not, he should know how to remove this seal.
Angel had the idea but didn’t voice it. Whether going to the Wilderness of Dreams or seeking that man in the void belonged to secrets and was not suitable to speak of at this mont.
Thus, he stopped at "seeking help" and began pondering how to phrase it.
But his silence was taken by others as a sort of hint, and they all started imagining on their own.
Seeking help, from whom?
The one they currently know who can solve this matter is the Mirror Bearer. But it certainly can’t be her; if it were her, Angel could directly hand the mirror to the Grey rchant.
If not the Mirror Bearer, then who?
Angel’s backer, Rhein? Though comparing them might not be right, the Black Earl and Rhein are of the sa level. Their insight and understanding shouldn’t be vastly different. If the Black Earl can’t solve it, could Rhein?
The Mirror Lady or Book Elder? Rumor has it that the Mirror Lady hasn’t appeared in a while, not even presiding over the Tea Party, probably in the middle of cultivation, so Angel might not be able to see her.
As for the Book Elder, even insiders of the Barbarian Cave haven’t seen him; can Angel really?
Furthermore, even if Angel ets the Book Elder, it contradicts the "most imdiate thod" he ntioned.
Angel surely can’t go through the Plane Corridor to et the Book Elder and then return via the Plane Corridor? Such an extravagant thod, Angel might not mind, but the Grey rchant likely does. After all, this is about solving the Grey rchant’s mory; it’s unlikely Angel would pay for the Plane Corridor’s consumables.
Even if the Grey rchant is anxious, he wouldn’t be in a rush. If he knew Angel was going to seek the Book Elder, he would definitely wait for Angel to co out instead of using the Plane Corridor like a fool.
Of course, if they knew Angel had a linked Teleportation Formation Disk to directly teleport back, it might be another story.
Since it’s not seeking help from a backer, and Angel explicitly said it was the "most imdiate" thod.
Most imdiate...
Everyone pondered this phrase and vaguely arrived at an answer.
They slowly lifted their heads, looking at the one hanging in mid-air, long silent... the Wise Sovereign.
Angel was saying to seek help from the Wise Sovereign?
Co to think of it, they seed to have always forgotten about the Wise Sovereign. Upon careful thought, the Wise Sovereign was clearly connected with the Mirror Bearer. Moreover, living in the Underground Aqueduct for thousands of years, the Wise Sovereign must have witnessed the Mirror Bearer’s thods.
Coupled with You Nu and the Cyclops Family, all of whom have an inextricable connection with that entity and can freely enter and exit the mirror. Now, they are all under the Wise Sovereign, and despite having rebellious thoughts, their understanding of him and the mirror world is undoubtedly deeper than anyone else’s.
Perhaps, the Wise Sovereign might really be the only solution at this stage.
...
Not only others, but even the Wise Sovereign also interpreted Angel’s words as seeking help from himself.
So, when everyone looked at him, the Wise Sovereign sighed slightly inside and proactively said, "There is a way to remove the seal, but two conditions must be t."
The Wise Sovereign’s words brightened the eyes of everyone. It seed Angel was right; the Wise Sovereign indeed had a way!
Angel was taken aback; did the Wise Sovereign really have a way? If you had a way, why didn’t you say so earlier? Why did he bother thinking so much?
Angel thought to himself, but seeing Vay’s admiring gaze and everyone else looking at him with a "just as expected" expression... he seed to understand sothing.
Right, seeking help from others was indeed asking the Wise Sovereign for help!
Angel accepted this setup with a clear conscience, then looked at the Wise Sovereign with "wise" eyes.
Although the Wise Sovereign felt that Angel’s gaze was a bit odd, he didn’t think much of it. With a gentle wave of his hand, Angel felt the fragnt being pulled away by a force.
Angel hesitated for a mont before allowing the force to take the fragnt away.
The fragnt floated leisurely into the air, finally landing in the palm of the Wise Sovereign.
The Wise Sovereign glanced at the broken mirror, from which the remnant red had faded, leaving only a blurred surface and a faint figure.
The Wise Sovereign sighed softly, previously having hinted to Angel not to take it, but he still did.
Angel wanted to involve himself in the matter of the Dust’s mory, which the Wise Sovereign was indifferent to, because Angel indeed could do it, and currently, only he could. But if Angel entered the world within the mirror through this, that’s sothing the Wise Sovereign didn’t want to see.
Moreover, the Wise Sovereign had an agreent with the Goddess not to obstruct anyone from entering the mirror. At the ti, he agreed mainly to facilitate You Nu, but it had beco a constraint now, only being able to hint, not explicitly state.
Fortunately, Dox’s inspiration talent was triggered, allowing him to perceive the terror and danger within the mirror world, giving Angel a warning. Otherwise, if Angel had recklessly stepped into the mirror, the consequences would be unpredictable.
The Wise Sovereign extended his finger, lightly tracing it across the mirror.
As if he was wiping away the dust on the mirror.
After a long while, the Wise Sovereign finally moved his gaze away from the mirror, then looked down at the crowd.
"Honorable Judge, what two conditions must be t?" Dust bowed to the Wise Sovereign and asked.
Wise Sovereign: "Internal delivery, external reception."
These are indeed the two conditions, and they are straightforward to understand. However, upon hearing these two conditions, Dust furrowed his brows.
"Does the Honorable Judge an that soone must enter the mirror?" Dust asked.
The Wise Sovereign shook his head: "Not necessarily. The most difficult of the two conditions to et is not the ’internal delivery,’ but the ’external reception.’"
Dust and his companions looked puzzled. In their understanding: internal delivery ant delivering from inside to outside; while external reception ant soone outside receiving.
With this comparison, it seed delivering from inside to outside would be harder. Why did the judge say external reception was more difficult?
Wise Sovereign: "Because there are many creatures who can roam the mirror world. However, those who can touch the mirror world directly from the outside, using their physical bodies as a dium, are very few."
"Among you, only he can do it."
The Wise Sovereign gently tossed the fragnt in his hand, its glowing trajectory falling precisely into Angel’s palm.
This action by the Wise Sovereign was both a return of the mirror fragnt to Angel and a clear indication to Dust that only Angel might beco the person for the ’external reception.’
Dust understood, realizing that the ’external reception’ was not about waiting outside for soone from inside to deliver, but about soone outside using their physical body as a dium to enter the mirror and receive the sealed mory from the creatures within.
anwhile, the Wizard who called himself Earl Mi had previously reached into the mirror in front of everyone. No wonder the Honorable Judge said only he could do it.
With this in mind, the Judge’s claim that external reception is more difficult makes sense.
However, the current issue is that Earl Mi seems intent on making a deal, which ans the ’external reception’ seems feasible; on the contrary, they still don’t know how to et the judge’s condition of ’internal delivery.’
Just as Dust was about to ask the Honorable Judge, Earl Mi’s voice ca from the other side.
"If it’s just these two conditions, then I think I know how to do it."
Dust looked surprised. Earlier, Earl Mi didn’t know what to do, but now he claid to have a solution?
Angel: "If it only needs soone who can roam the mirror world, then I can indeed find one."
Actually, when Angel heard the Wise Sovereign explain the two conditions, the na "Mirror Grudge" popped into his mind. If Mirror Grudge contacted this mirror fragnt, it really might enter the mirror world without incident.
However, Mirror Grudge is ultimately hard to control, and due to the sins committed by Mirror Grudge, Angel never intended to keep it forever. When enough research on the mirror space was done, Angel planned to send it on its way.
Thus, even though Angel had an idea in mind, he didn’t voice it at the ti.
The only reason he spoke up now was due to the Wise Sovereign’s suggestion.
Angel hadn’t understood what the Wise Sovereign intended to do with the broken mirror piece until the Wise Sovereign returned it to him, and he discovered that the Wise Sovereign had left so information on it.
Through this information, Angel understood that the Wise Sovereign had contacted the Cyclops Family using special thods more>’.
The Wise Sovereign intended to help solve the condition of ’internal delivery.’ He would let one of You Nu’s children randomly co and deliver the sealed mory from the inside.
However, all of this would have to wait until they passed You Nu’s interception.
The choice to wait until that ti wasn’t made by the Wise Sovereign but was the intention of the Cyclops Family’s eldest treasure.
The Cyclops Family’s eldest treasure didn’t explain to the Wise Sovereign why, but from the chosen timing, its intentions could be guessed.
The Wise Sovereign had previously ntioned that although the Cyclops Family’s three treasures leaned more towards him over Adanis, when compared to You Nu, they unquestionably leaned towards You Nu. After all, You Nu is their mother.
The Cyclops Family’s eldest treasure insisted on helping only after they passed You Nu’s interception, which was also a warning. If they hard or even killed You Nu while dealing with her, they shouldn’t expect any help.
To gain the Cyclops Family’s assistance, their only choice was not to harm You Nu when passing her interception.
This was the first ssage the Wise Sovereign left on the fragnt.
The second ssage was what Angel had previously said to Dust.
The Wise Sovereign didn’t want to expose himself, so even if the mory of Dust was indeed sent out, it would appear to have been done by Angel, at least on the surface, having nothing to do with him.
These were all the ssages the Wise Sovereign left on the fragnt. While the general content was stated, the Wise Sovereign didn’t ntion why he was willing to help or if there would be any return for his deeds.
Angel had doubts in his heart but didn’t dwell on them. Because if the Wise Sovereign did demand a return, Angel would just pass that on to Dust.
Moreover, these weren’t concerns for the present mont anyway.
