Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 2546 Decryption
From the perspective of the naked eye, this alchemy drawing has only a thin layer.But in the eyes of wizards who understand magic patterns, they can see two layers of magic patterns of different natures stacked together.

These two layers of magic lines are intertwined, sometimes appearing and sometimes hiding.

One of the magic patterns is a real alchemy pattern; the other layer of magic pattern is a "lock".

In order to see the true face of this alchemy blueprint, one must unlock the intertwined "locks".

This kind of "lock" is very common in the alchemy drawings of ancient times, and it can be regarded as a protective measure for the alchemists at that time to their original works.

But now, the alchemy circle in Sky Machinery City undertakes most of the copyright protection, and this "lock" has gradually been lost.

Angel had only seen such records of "locks" in books before, and this was the first time he had seen "locks" with his own eyes.

This "lock" uses the alchemy magic pattern of the enchantment system, so it is best to let the alchemist of the enchantment system solve it.Of course, with His Excellency Aesop's magic pattern attainments, there is also a chance to unlock this "lock".However, this "lock" is a bit special. Once the sequence of decryption is wrong, the alchemy blueprint will directly self-destruct.Therefore, Your Excellency Aesops did not rush to solve it, which is why Angel's mission came about.

Before deciphering, Angel had already taken a look at the overall situation, but when he actually started to do it, his movements were still very cautious.

It wasn't too difficult to decipher at the beginning, but as time went by, various intertwining phenomena began to appear in the places that needed to be followed by carving brushes.In other words, the alchemy pattern and the decryption pattern are intertwined, and there are often multiple forks.

It is not too difficult to simply distinguish between the alchemy pattern and the decryption pattern.The most difficult thing is that the decrypted lines will also be mixed together, and there will be multiple forks. This requires Angel to judge which decrypted line comes first and which one follows.

It sounds like it is just a judgment of order, and the difficulty seems to be the same.But in fact, this required Angel to carry out rather cumbersome calculations in his mind, and he had to perform many calculations before finally confirming that it was correct before he dared to write.

The energy and mental effort consumed here are definitely not something that can be said in one or two sentences.

From the sweat on Angor's forehead, we can see the difficulty of deciphering.

……

"Three hours have passed." At this time, Kael, who was next door, looked in the direction of the cave where Angel was, with a worried expression on his face.

"Why, do you think super-dimensional wizards can't complete the decryption?" Doakes, who was sitting on the soft sofa with his legs crossed, looked at Kael.

Kael shook his head: "No, Master Chaowei came from the Research and Development Institute, and his alchemy strength is naturally unquestionable. It's just... I'm worried about the mental attack on that blueprint."

Even His Excellency Aesops only persisted for half an hour, and Angel had been facing the alchemy blueprint for three hours, so he wondered if there would be any problems.

Doakes thought for a moment: "This is indeed something to worry about. However, when he faced the alchemy blueprint before, he didn't change his face at all. He should have a strategy to deal with it."

"Besides, this is just an insignificant task for him. If there is a situation where he can't handle it, just give up. Even if the alchemy blueprint is destroyed, don't you dare ask him to pay for it?"

Kael said a little embarrassingly: "My lord is right..."

Really ruined, that can't be helped.He must not even dare to say no.

However, what Doakes said gave Kael a bit of confidence. Angel will definitely not do things beyond his ability. It is really embarrassing, just give up.Now that three hours have passed, Angor has not appeared yet, which means that at least for now, everything is still under Angor's control.

……

The guesses of the two people next door are actually correct. Indeed, the simple decryption is still under Angel's grasp.

However, deciphering itself is not difficult, but what Angel did not expect was that the deciphering on this alchemy blueprint is layer upon layer. , it may only take a few hours, or even half an hour if it is as fast as possible.

But after actually starting to decipher, I discovered the sinister intentions of the drawer, there were too many traps inside, and many puzzles were hidden under the alchemy magic pattern, which made it impossible to find it when observing. complicated.The most important thing is that once the decryption is started, there is no way to stop halfway, otherwise the blueprint will be destroyed even if all previous efforts are wasted.

Long-term deciphering consumes a lot of Angel's mind, and he can only free up his magic hand to keep feeding himself energy-enhancing potions.

Even though these medicines are not expensive, they are in large quantities, and they are a lot of money to accumulate.

Seeing the pile of empty medicine bottles around him getting higher and higher, Angel's spirit also lifted.

The decryption task and the alchemy task should be separated, and the decryption task is probably more difficult than the alchemy task!

As a result, Aesops only sent out one alchemy task, and the deciphering was just a word, as if there was no difficulty. This is information asymmetry, and it was a big loss!
When you go back, you must ask Isos for reimbursement!

While gnashing his teeth and cursing in his heart, he also had to control the stability of his hands and continue to decipher.

In such a situation, time is constantly passing by.

……

Twelve hours later, Kael was already a little drowsy. Suddenly, the space node around him became abnormal.

At the same time, a voice with a strong dissatisfaction came through the space node: "Come in!"

Kael couldn't help trembling all over, his neck stiffened, and he turned to look at Doakes.

Doakes shrugged his shoulders, indicating that it had nothing to do with me, and at the same time, there was a look of fun on his face.

Thinking about it, it was true. Originally, the abnormality of the space node was a reminder to Kael, but Angor also made a sound on purpose, which shows that Angor is very angry at this time.

This is the first time Doakes has felt Angor's emotional ups and downs so clearly after seeing Angor.

It can be seen that Angel is really angry this time.

But Doakes is also very puzzled, what's the point of deciphering?Or is there a hole in it?

Thinking of this, Doakes pushed Kael: "Hurry up, I told you to come in."

Doakes could no longer hide his expression of watching a play.But Kael was a little scared. After all, he was a researcher and rarely faced the anger of official wizards.

But at this moment, listening to Angel's voice, he knew that he was in a bad mood, and he couldn't move his feet in a daze.

"You have to go anyway, and you can't hide from it. Besides, it may not be a bad thing."

Kael looked at Doakes silently: Don't you feel guilty if you speak out of your conscience!It's not a bad thing, is it still a good thing? !

Seeing that Kael was still trembling, Doakes wanted to know what happened, so he said, "Well, if he wants to kill you, I'll stop you for you and keep you alive."

Kael: "Really?"

Doakes: "Trust my character."

Kael really wanted to say that Doakes' character was worthless.But there was nothing to be done now, as Doakes said, there was always going to be.

Kael sighed, trembling his legs, and took steps towards the crypt.

Doakes followed immediately. As for what he said about keeping Kael alive, he was really just talking.He knew very well that even if Angel was really furious, he would not kill Kael. After all, there was Isos behind him, and Isos was a close friend with the leader of the barbaric cave, Reinmut.

Therefore, Kael will definitely not be killed, but I don't know if Angel has the habit of abusing others?
It would be so interesting to see the scene in the princess' room.When Doakes thought of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch, and he felt itchy in his heart. How about giving Angel some ideas?

Soon, Kael and Doakes came to the door of the crypt.

"Come in." Angor's voice came from inside.

Compared to just now, the voice was much calmer, just like usual, without revealing too much emotion.This made Kael a little less worried.

However, at this time Doakes began to rage again: "Kael, do you know that the calmer he is for some people, the more suppressed his anger will be. On the contrary, those who express their anger directly are easier to appease."

Hearing this, the trembling of Kael's legs finally stopped, and it started again.

Doakes is secretly happy.

No matter what, when you get here, you still have to push the door to enter.

With the mood of going to death, Kael pushed open the door.As soon as he entered the door, before he saw where Angel was, he felt a breeze blowing on his face.

This cool breeze is not ordinary, as long as it blows over the body, the mental fatigue will disappear miraculously.

Along with the cool breeze, there is also the soft light shining on the body, as well as the faint fragrance in the air.

Whether it's the breeze, the light, or the fragrance, it makes people feel extremely comfortable, like wandering in the ocean of moonlight, every part of the body is being massaged by soft hands...

While Kael was enjoying the sudden comfort, a voice rang in his ear: "Why, is it very comfortable?"

As soon as Kael heard the familiar voice, he immediately trembled and raised his head to look across.

I saw Angel with a tired face standing under the faint light, and there was a decadent beauty in the interlacing of light and shadow.

"Tut tsk tsk, Moonlight Praise." At this moment, Doakes' voice sounded, accompanied by the "jingling" sound of glass bottles colliding: "How many bottles of Moonlight Praise have been used, depending on the format of the bottles, some are still A mid-level top-level potion."

Kael followed the sound, but saw that Doakes had already walked near the table.

Under the table, there are various potion bottles stacked, some of which look ordinary, but some are very gorgeous, and even the bottles are engraved with magic patterns.

Moonlight Praise... Kael remembered Dox saying the name.

As a person who has been in various wizard fairs all year round, how could he not know the name of Moonlight Praise.

Although this is a low-level medicine, it is the top-level medicine in the low-level, and its value is extremely expensive, even surpassing ordinary middle-level medicines.Its effect is to eliminate fatigue and restore mental strength. For ordinary people, even just bathing in the moonlight can increase the strength of the physical body.

With Kael's wealth, he can afford a bottle of Moonshine Praise, but... Looking at the densely packed potion bottles on the ground, Kael feels that even if he sells himself, he can't afford so many Moonshine Praises.

Moreover, there are also unknown middle-level top-level medicine bottles mixed in, and the price is even higher than the sky.

"Master... my lord, these potion bottles..." Kael stammered, trying to say something.

Angel's expression was calm: "For decryption."

That simple sentence made Kael's throat choke.The worst result came. Sure enough, these expensive potions were used for decryption.

This means... He has to pay for all these.

Kael only felt dizzy for a while, and sat slumped on the ground in the next second.

Doakes still laughed and said: "Let me calculate how many magic crystals were used in the potion this time, one, ten, one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand..."

It seems that he deliberately said it to Kael, and Doakes paused every time there was an increase in weight, and Kael's expression changed from despair to final apathy.

Looking at Kael, whose soul was almost scared to death and unconscious, Doakes shook his head and said: "Academics are academics, and their psychological quality is really poor."

After finishing speaking, Doakes came to Angel's side: "Did you really use so many potions to decipher this time?"

Even though he was still bathed in the moonlight praise at this time, Angor's face still showed obvious fatigue, which was the result of exhaustion: "I was cheated by Aesop."

Just one sentence, Doakes understood.

"Compared to alchemy, this deciphering is the most difficult, right?" Doakes asked, but his tone was very firm.

Angel only replied with one sentence: "The entire southern region, no one else can unlock it except me."

Maybe it was a bit exaggerated, but Doakes believed it, because even His Excellency Isos couldn't bear to look at the blueprint for half an hour, and the others probably couldn't bear it either.

And Angor not only stared at this blueprint for more than ten hours, but also exhausted his energy to calculate and decrypt it. This is definitely not a simple matter.

Just thinking about it, Doakes felt that this task was too difficult.Even those senior qualifications in the research and development institute are impossible to complete.

As far as Doakes knew, the task Aesos assigned to Angel was just "alchemy".

The most difficult decryption was completely omitted by Aesop.

Angel did it with the intention of solving a simple puzzle, but ended up in hell mode.It's nothing less than that, Angel's temper is so strong.

If it were Doakes, it would probably have exploded at this time.Maybe, even the alchemy blueprints can't be understood.

what!When it comes to the alchemy blueprint, Angel couldn't understand it because of impulse, right?

Doakes hurriedly asked about it.

Angor: "I have spent so many bottles of potions, and if I don't untie them, am I worthy of my potions?"

Angel finished speaking, and spread out the alchemy blueprint casually: "Look for yourself, it has been solved."

Doakes turned his eyes quickly, he didn't want to bear the mental shock.

"After solving the external puzzle, it will no longer affect the mental power."

When Doakes heard this, he turned his head and looked. Sure enough, the alchemy blueprint had no mental impact, and showed his true colors.

A blueprint of a dagger with a very special shape, and there are a lot of magic pattern guides beside it.

Anyway, Doakes couldn't read it.

"Then you're going to do this now, and you've used so many potions. Are you planning to kill Kael, or to torture him like Madiya, and then kill him."

Although Kael on the side had lost his mind, he still heard Doakes' words.He just felt dizzy, no matter what choice he made, Doakes hoped that Angel would kill him!
Angel did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment in silence.

Angel was thinking, of course, not how to kill Kael, he was thinking about what he got this time.

Yes, earned.

He didn't get nothing this time. Although solving the puzzle consumed a lot of medicine, the puzzle itself became Angel's benefit.

When solving this puzzle, it is equivalent to solving the internal magic energy array.Angel discovered that this was a rather special magic circle, a magic circle that was not even recorded in his "Enchanting Encyclopedia - Perfect Chapter".

Of course, the effect of this magic array can not only be used as a "lock", it is to continuously produce spiritual impact on people.

It can be said that this is a very interesting and threatening magic circle.

Angel believed that the wall in the Nightmare Realm presumably had a similar effect of the magic circle.

The only shortcoming is that this magic array is not perfect, and it cannot adjust the intensity of mental impact.

If the intensity of the impact of mental power can be adjusted so that it can be compared to the wall in the Nightmare Realm, Angel can wear this magic array and act as a self-propelled mental power cannon, falling down wherever he sees.Even true wizards, even those at the level of Rhine, probably can be affected.

It's a pity that regrets are regrets, and we can only think about it.

However, the wall in the city of Naraku in the Nightmare Realm may have clues to adjust the strength. If there is a chance, Angel really wants to see it.

"After thinking about it for so long, are you thinking about how to deal with Kael? Or, let me give you some advice, which will definitely be more interesting than Madiya's method." Doakes said excitedly.

Kael, who was sitting paralyzed on the ground, was hopeless.
