Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 2604 Centaur

This road with great spatial contrast is longer than expected.

With the blessing of the power of the wind, everyone has walked for nearly 5 minutes, but they still haven't seen the end.On the contrary, the oppressive feeling became more and more serious. Although Angel and the others were not greatly affected, they gradually became silent and remained silent.

This atmosphere of silence continued until the first slit.

It is impossible for the road to get wider and wider, and the sense of awe and insignificance also has a threshold. Therefore, after walking for a long period of "avenue", they finally ushered in the first narrow mouth - the road, which began to gradually narrow up.

There is no fork in this narrow mouth, but there is a stone statue at each end of the narrow mouth.

The stone statue on the left has been completely destroyed, leaving only the base.The stone statue on the right was also damaged, but a half of the body was still left. Judging from the restoration of this half of the body and some fragments on the ground, the statue on the right should be a centaur holding a round shield and a chain hammer.

Centaurs, purely talking about monsters, do not actually exist in the Southern Territory. Even if there are, they are smuggled from the abyss.

However, stories about centaurs are often circulated among the people.This is like the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus in fairy tales on the earth, and it has deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The symbol represented by the centaur in the folk is not a terrifying monster in the abyss, but a symbol of loyalty and steadfastness.

Because the stories about the centaur are basically the same as Dragon Quest, and the centaur is the solid backing behind the brave.

Whoever compiled the story of the centaur has long since disappeared in the long river of history. It is probably a mystery whether the other party has ever seen the centaur from the abyss.

But I have to say that the story of the centaur is very popular. Even in the wizarding world, even if they know that the centaur is an abyss monster, many people actually like the image of the centaur.

One of Angel's friends, Viking, has the image of a centaur from the waist down.Of course, he was transplanted out of necessity, but from the fact that Viking did not reject this image, we can know how the wizarding world treats centaurs.

Under such an atmosphere, the statue of the centaur has also been endowed with quite a lot of positive connotations.

Judging from the movement and posture of the centaur statue in front of you, it is a typical alert state, which means to warn the latecomers to "stop".

The so-called stop generally has only two meanings, either to warn the visitor that there is danger ahead, or that the front is an important place, so please do not enter.

Which of these two meanings would it be?

Angel was the first to break the silence and expressed his doubts.

"Maybe, there are both." With a cold voice and a touch of nasal cavity, there is no doubt that it was Earl Hei who spoke.

"I also think what Earl Hei said is right." It was Kael who spoke this time.

Kael had been squatting next to the completely broken statue base on the left before, wearing goggles, holding very professional archaeological tools, a special magnifying glass, and a pheromone magnifying device, looking very stylish.

But when he was talking, Kael took off the goggles and let out a long breath: "Although I only captured a small part of the pheromone, it can basically be confirmed that it is not people who destroyed the statue, but It’s some kind of monster with a dark aura.”

"This kind of monster may have its own ability to corrode. I have extracted signs of corrosion from some fragments. But the statue itself was not destroyed by the force of corrosion, but was smashed vigorously, so I guess this monster It has a certain ability to corrode, and its strength is also very good."

"Also, the most important point is that I can extract the pheromone, which means that these statues have not been destroyed for too long, no more than half a year."

"Therefore, I agree with Earl Black's statement. The original meaning of this centaur statue may be to remind visitors that the front is an important institution, so please do not enter. But now, since there are monsters appearing nearby, it means that the front may also be Possession of danger."

"The two possibilities coexist and are not contradictory."

Angel also recognized Kael's analysis, because his analysis was based on his findings.Evidence is always more reassuring.

Angor: "Is there any record of pheromone? If so, show me."

Kael nodded, and handed over the valuable pheromone amplifier directly to Angel. ——If it were someone else, even Doakes, he would not give it easily, but Angel is an academic 'researcher' he recognized, so naturally he would not refuse.

After Angel got the pheromone amplifier, he immediately started to operate it.

Kael watched Angor's standard and elegant operation, and once again agreed that his vision was correct.You must know that the pheromone amplifier is a partial instrument, and it is extremely cumbersome to operate, and if there is a slight error, errors will occur.

And Angor's operation is quite smooth, even smoother than Kael's.

Soon, Angel saw the traces and records of Kael's previous extraction of pheromones.

After putting down the pheromone amplifier, Angel fell into deep thought.

Everyone knew that Angel wanted to see the meaning of the pheromone record, but in fact, he wanted to know what the monster that destroyed the statue was.

But Angel did not speak immediately after reading it, which made everyone feel itchy.

Wai even came to Doakes, and suggested, "Why don't you also check the pheromone records, one more person, one more thought."

"You mean that Angel is inexperienced and doesn't know that monster?" Doakes asked back.

Wai did have this guess in his mind, but, as a fanboy, he would not say it out loud.He would only ask Doakes to help, so as not to be embarrassed by the idol not being recognized.

But Doakes pointed out his thoughts directly, but Wai waved his hands again and again: "How is it possible, the noble, handsome, powerful and stalwart super-dimensional lord is the most experienced wizard I have ever seen!"

Doakes: "...you put too many prefixes on him..."

Wei blushed: "I'm telling the truth."

Doakes looked at his old friend suspiciously. Could this guy be brainwashed by Angel?Why is it so strange today?
However, Doakes didn't express his doubts, so the topic just stopped here.If Wai continued to ask him to operate the magnifying instrument, it would not be Angor who would be embarrassed, but the clown would only be himself.

That's right, Doakes talked about him left and right, but he didn't want to admit that he couldn't operate a pheromone amplifier.

Of course, besides Kael and Angel, there was another person who could operate the pheromone amplifier, and that was Earl Black.It's just that, except for Angel, no one dared to let Earl Hei do things.Doakes was very courageous before and dared to speak to the Black Earl, but now he dared not, because it would expose his ignorance.

"Huh?" While everyone was waiting silently, Earl Hei suddenly let out a voice of doubt.

Everyone quickly looked at Earl Hei, but Earl Hei didn't say anything, and fell into deep thought.

At this moment, Angel and Earl Hei were both lost in thought...

Time passed by every minute and every second. After 2 minutes, Earl Hei came back to his senses first, but he still didn't say anything.After another minute, Angel finally raised his head, rubbed his temples, and let out a long breath.

"Did you find anything?" It was Earl Hei who asked.

Angel nodded, with an apology on his face: "Some discoveries, but it's been too long, and my knowledge of monsters is actually limited, so it took a long time, sorry."

Wai: "It's okay, it's okay, my lord is already very powerful!"

Doakes glanced at Wai: "When did you learn to flatter? If you flatter me too, I promise you will be promoted to wizard in a short time."

Vai: "No."

Wai has no shortage of resources and talent, and was even better than Doakes back then.The reason why Doakes has caught up later is not that Wai cannot advance, but that he has his own considerations.

Doakes twitched the corner of his mouth, and whispered to Wai's ear: "We've known each other for decades and you haven't flattered me. How many times have you met Angel?"

Wai stopped talking, because Angor was already communicating with Earl Hei, and he didn't want to miss it.As for the question about Doakes, these are completely different things. Best friends and idols are not on the same level, so there is no comparison value, let alone the idol on Wai's new fan, so naturally he wants to show off.

On the other side, Earl Hei: "Are you sure what monster it is?"

Angel nodded: "If there are no accidents, this pheromone should be from witches."

"Witch eye ghost again?" Everyone asked in surprise.

Angel ignored the doubts of others, but slowly tapped in the direction of Earl Hei.In Earl Hei's doubtful mood, one by one wonderful illusion nodes formed an illusion structure in front of his nose that could not be observed by the naked eye.

"Your Excellency, you can make sure again. After all, my judgment may not be accurate."

Earl Hei sniffed it with his nose, and unexpectedly discovered that it was a pheromone smell... No, it was a pheromone imitated by illusion.

After confirming this conclusion, Earl Hei was as surprised as he was when he saw Angel repairing the magic pattern and releasing the moving illusion.

Earl Black is very familiar with Sanders, he is no stranger to illusions, he knows very well that illusions can deceive the five senses.However, pheromone is not just at the level of the five senses, it goes a step further and uses the level of inspiration.

Yes, spiritual perception.

Spiritual awareness isn't just a wizard's danger radar, it has a wide range of other uses as well.

The spiritual sea, the land of the soul, and the thinking space are generally considered to exist in higher dimensions.The same is true for inspiration. In the research of wizards, it may also be a higher-dimensional state, or in other words, it is a unique high-dimensional sense of human beings.

The five senses flow on the material level, while inspiration is hidden in high dimensions.

To identify pheromones, you need to use the five senses and inspiration.

Angel imitated the pheromone with illusion. Does this mean that he also possessed some kind of inspiration talent?
The Black Earl's guess was actually right.

Angel's grasp of emotions and the five senses is far beyond ordinary people. Now in the wilderness of dreams, he has come into contact with independent existences without souls but with thinking consciousness, such as Bobota.

Coupled with Angor's mastery of nightmares, Angor can now use illusion to simulate this existence beyond the five senses.

However, Angel himself didn't realize that this was some kind of talent, because it was so natural; and very early on, Angel had already unconsciously combined inspiration with nightmares, such as the one that caused the Twilight Auction back then. At that time, he kept thinking about the stitching woman in the Nightmare Realm back then, which led to the intersection between the Nightmare Realm and reality, and it was also the beginning of the change in the Eternal Night Kingdom.

At that time, Angel just connected with the Nightmare Realm just by thinking, relying on inspiration.Between life and death, the combination of inspiration and nightmare, this is the capital to turn the table.

Neither Angor nor Sanders discovered this, and it is only natural for Angor to use this kind of illusion now.

Although it was the first time to simulate pheromone in this way, Angel did not feel that he had failed at all, which actually meant that this talent had penetrated into Angel's instinct.

On the contrary, it was Earl Hei's sudden ups and downs of mood that made Angel a little puzzled.

"My lord, have you noticed something is wrong? My judgment was wrong?" Angel asked doubtfully.

Seeing Angor's appearance of not caring about pheromone simulation at all, Earl Hei secretly had doubts in his heart. Could it be that Sanders has already studied illusion to this extent?

Otherwise, how could Angel treat this supersensory illusion so calmly.

If this is the case, Earl Hei felt that he had to adjust his mentality.You can't make people feel that you are ignorant, especially when you meet Sanders in the future, if the other party shows off to him, you can't be shocked, calm down, calm down...

During the self-hypnosis, Earl Hei was also very thankful that only the nose came out this time.No emotion can be seen from the nose, otherwise his surprise must not be concealed.

Earl Hei thought that he had concealed it well, but he didn't know that Angel could even combine inspiration with nightmares, and the capture of emotional fluctuations was even more powerful.

However, Earl Hei should indeed be thankful, but he is not glad that he concealed it well, but that it is Angel and not Sanders who is here.If it was Sanders, he must have seen through Earl Hei's thoughts at a glance, and although Angel knew that Earl Hei's emotions were constantly fluctuating, he had no idea what he was thinking.

Therefore, when Earl Hei finally calmed down, Angel had no other thoughts at all. The only thought in his mind now was: "Did I make a mistake in my judgment, am I not a witch?"

While Angor was waiting anxiously, Earl Hei adjusted his attitude and tone, and said calmly: "It is indeed a shaman, your judgment is normal. Very good."

Earl Hei gave a compliment, not for Angel's discovery, but for the powerful illusion of simulating pheromone.

After getting Earl Hei's affirmation, Angel let out a long sigh of relief: "I thought I was wrong in my judgment, and it's fine if I'm a shaman."

At this time, Doakes said in a teasing tone: "What do you mean by 'just be a wumu ghost'? Why, do you only dare to face wumu ghosts?"

Doakes didn't know about the undercurrent between Earl Black and Angel. After all, he didn't know much about illusions, and he was simply confused by Angel's words.

But Doakes' doubts just paved the way for what Angel would say next.

"Seeing any other monsters in the underground labyrinth, I won't have much trouble. But the Wumu ghost is different. Its existence has some special meanings."
