Vol 2 Chapter 2550: Smell of death

Chapter 2550 Death Smell
Docks came to the black-robed man, and first bowed to the empty seat next to the black-robed man: "Your Excellency Earl Black, good evening."
No one answered, but there was a nose embedded in the stone slab, but jumped from the empty seat to the tabletop and sniffed at Dorks.
Immediately afterwards, the black robe said humanely: "You don't need to be like that, this time I didn't bring the adult's ears, I can't hear."
Docks also saw that there was a nose instead of an ear on the slate, and he was finally relieved, and complained: "You didn't say it earlier. If you knew you wouldn't hear it, I'll come to you directly."
"You are so afraid of my sir?" The black robe man said teasingly.
"Aren't you afraid?" Dorks asked rhetorically.
The black-robed man laughed softly, but didn't reply.
Docks continued: "The body is divided into countless parts, and each part has autonomous consciousness. Such a monster, anyway, I shiver by just listening. You dare to bring it every time you go out. Just tell me the truth, won't you be surprised?"
The black-robed man drank a glass of wine and said indifferently: "Although my adult came here with his nose this time, he can't hear you, but he can smell your malice."
Dorks was taken aback, and suddenly backed a few steps.
"Can the nose smell malice? Is it true, or are you fooling me?" Dorks said cautiously.
The black-robed man: "You can act as if I was fooling you. But, do you believe it?"
Whether it was true or not, Dorks didn't dare to speak any more, and made a special circle, sitting in the farthest position from the black-robed man and the nose.
When Dorks sat down, the black robe man said faintly, "You asked me just now, are you upset? My apprentice can make the dignified Red Sword Lord sit opposite, do you think I am upset or upset?"
The black-robed man was uncomfortable, and Dorks did not care at this time, but the other party was right. The reason why Dorks spoke to the apprentice as equals, or even sat on an equal footing, was because he was carrying a part of Lord Black Lord's body.
As long as the "nose" is there, no one dares to be disrespectful to the black robe.
This is also the reason why the Noah family is famous. There are few Noah people, but as long as the Noah people walk outside, they have a part of the Black Earl's body. That is to say, every Noah tribe is under the protection of Black Earl.
Of course, "protection" is only the understanding of outsiders, but based on the previous exchanges between Docks and this old friend, he is vaguely aware that Earl Black seems to have other unknown purposes in doing so. And what this purpose is, Docks doesn't know, but with his strong spiritual perception, there is always a bad omen.
For this reason, Dorks asked just now: Are you not afraid, are you not shocked?
Don't look at the black-robed man who seemed to express his upset with rhetorical questions, but is he really upset? He never answered it himself.
"I won't fight a dumb riddle with you, let's talk about business." Docks glanced at the nose that was still sniffing around, then set his eyes on the black-robed man: "Way, find a convenient place to talk?"
Vay Noah is the name of the black-robed man, an old friend of Dox for many years.
The black-robed man Wai did not move, but closed his eyes for a few seconds. After a while, the nose embedded in the stone slab suddenly took a deep breath, and then screamed, and there was a line around Docks and Wai. Absolute barrier.
This is a secondary technique, and shielding sounds is only its most trivial effect. That terrible defense in battle is its main purpose.
"Now you can talk." Wai said lightly.
The use of second-level spells as a noise barrier, among the apprentices, was probably done by the Noah family.
Docks was silent for a moment: "You were communicating with Lord Black's nose just now? You didn't speak ill of me, did you?"
Wye rolled his eyes and was too lazy to answer this stupid question: "I stayed well in Mesomia. What did you find me for?"
Judging from Vay's reaction, Docs can be sure that he shouldn't speak ill of him to Earl Black. Dorks relaxed, then replied: "I am going to explore the ruins soon."
Wye resisted: "Don't call me, I told you before that I hate places where no one is. I only like to stay in big cities. Sandworm markets make me feel suffocated."
Vay is a very special person. He is actually not very gregarious. This kind of person is generally withdrawn, and Vay is indeed withdrawn. At least Docks has never heard of Vaye having other friends besides himself. However, although Wai is withdrawn, he especially likes places with lots of people. Once someone talked to him, he was very resistant and a very contradictory person.
He seems to simply like to see other people's excitement.
"I'm not asking you to explore with me, but my premonition seems to be out of order for this expedition. I can't perceive it at all. I want to ask you to help me see it." Dorks' face was a little more solemn. .
Wye frowned slightly: "The premonition fails, it means there is a big problem. Just don't go."
Dorks: "But...I'm not willing."
Not reconciled, it's just the rhetoric of Dorks, and the failure of spiritual perception is the real reason. He always feels like he is in the dark. Perhaps this time of exploration can truly transform his spiritual perception into a talented skill.
Vaye took a deep look at Dox, then sighed: "If you convince you, you like to die. I really don't know the meaning of adventure."
"This is the essence of the wandering wizard. Once you are free, you lose the source of knowledge, and adventure is a way to make up for it."
Wai was silent for a moment, and took out a transparent glass cup from his robe.
"Remember, you owe me another favor." Waye put the cup on the table and said to Dorks.
Dorks nodded repeatedly: "I remember, plus this time, I owe you five favors."
Wai raised his eyebrows: "Six."
Dorks waved his hand proudly: "I have asked for all your wine expenses here today. It's a favor, how about it?"
Wai was silent for a moment and said: "Okay. Five favors."
Docks immediately leaned forward with joy: "Then let's start."
Docks had obviously done this with Vay many times. He was very familiar with the process. When he saw the transparent glass cup, he stretched out his hand.
I meditated in my heart: I am about to go to the ruins.
Then, with a light stroke of Fengjian, a drop of blood from his fingertips fell into the glass cup, and the black-red blood revealed a slight light.
Vay glanced at him: "Your bloodline purity is much better than last time."
Dorks: "I'm not as lazy as you, staying at the top of the apprenticeship means not advancing."
Wai snorted, did not refute, but stretched out his hand and dripped a drop of fingertip blood into the glass cup.
Wai's blood color is very special, with a faint golden light in the bright red.
According to common sense, Dox is an official wizard, and his blood can certainly suppress Vay's blood. But in reality, when Vay's blood fell into the glass cup, it was Dox's blood that was suppressed.
To be precise, it was Vay's blood, like a membrane, tightly covering Dox's blood.
"Every time I look at it, I think it's amazing. Are you Noahs really human?" Dorks said with emotion.
Wye didn't want to reply to meaningless words, but picked up the glass cup and prepared for the last step: smell.
Wai has a very wonderful talent, this talent named Wai himself: the sense of death.
He can smell death from the blood.
In terms of classification, this talent should probably belong to the prophecy system, because the prophecy system also has the ability to predict death. However, predicting the death of a wizard is a kind of finding a quantitative in a variable, and this result can be changed.
On the other hand, Wye’s sense of death is a prediction of death based on the existing quantification. Of course, the result can still be changed.
When Docks was dripping blood, he meditated on the ruins in his heart. This is a quantitative measure.
What Wye wanted to hear was whether Dox went to this ruin, would he escape the smell of death.
However, just as Wye was about to sniff the blood in the glass cup, his hand suddenly paused, and then gently placed the glass cup on the table.
Docks, who knows every step clearly, wondered: "What's the matter, why did you let it go before you heard it?"
Wai was silent for a few seconds before saying: "This talent of mine is inherited from my own family. Since the adult's nose is here, it may be more accurate for the adult to judge."
It was the first time Dox heard that Vay's talent for death smell was inherited from the Black Earl.
Although I don't know why Vaye wanted to let Count Black's nose smell it, Docks thought about it and nodded. We have already reached this point, we can't give up halfway.
Soon, Wye picked up the stone slab inlaid with the nose and placed it in front of the cup.
Earl Black's nose began to smell.
The two drops of blood in the cup were constantly tumbling because of this, but it was amazing that no matter how it rolled, Vay's blood still tightly covered Dorks' blood.
After a long while, Wye put down the slate.
Wai did not speak for the first time, but closed his eyes as if he was asleep.
Docks guessed that Vay was probably communicating with Earl Black's nose... In fact, he could also communicate with Earl Black. Although Earl Black had "his consciousness" all over his body, he still had the consciousness of Earl Black.
The time for this exchange was longer than expected, and Vaye's brows frowned from time to time, as if he was fighting with Earl Black for reasons.
It wasn't until Dorks drank two full glasses of wine in a row, and watched the blue sky outside the window covered by dark clouds, and the rain dripped down, that Vaye opened his eyes.
"How did it turn out? Did Master Black say anything?"
Wai still didn't speak, but picked up the glass cup again and smelled it again in person.
After hearing it, Wayi looked lost.
Looking at Wye's series of actions, Docs was still a little confused: "What the is going on?"
After a long time, Wai sighed: "I can't smell anything by myself."
The lack of taste does not mean that death will not approach, but that Vay's talent has failed.
"However, my lord smells bad luck." Wye continued with lowered eyebrows.
Dorks: "The smell of doom, meaning, I will die this time?"
Wai shook his head: "I don't know, but..."
After hesitating again and again, Wai still sighed and said: "Your lord asked me to go to the ruins with you. In this way, you can be sure that you will not die."
Dorks: "In other words, if I go, there is a high probability that I will die; but as long as you go with me, I will not be dangerous?"
"Not to die, and not to be in danger are two different things." Wayi couldn't help correcting.
Dox: "Don't worry about these details, can I confirm one thing, do you really plan to explore the ruins?"
Wye nodded.
An otaku who never likes to explore the ruins is going out. Here, even if you don't need Dorks' spiritual perception, you can know that something is definitely wrong.
"Do you want to go by yourself?"
Wai did not speak.
As an old friend for many years, Doc immediately understood, this is what Black Earl meant.
"Then can I refuse? After all, this is not something I can decide. The leader of the ruins exploration is someone else." Docks tried to use this method to help Wye continue to return to the life of an otaku.
Wye understood what Dox meant, and said helplessly: "I remember the smell of your blood."
There was a sudden sentence, others didn't understand what it meant, but Dorks understood.
Even if Dox refuses Vaye, Vaye will follow through his blood.
Unless, Docks does not explore the ruins.
"Also, don't forget, you owe me five loves." Wai said again, "If I use this favor, let you tell me who is the dominant person. You won't refuse, will you?"
Obviously, Vaye has considered the situation if Dox does not go to the ruins.
Earl Black emphasized that Wye went to the ruins must be a premonition.
Dorks was silent for a moment: "I can't promise you this matter immediately. Give me one day, and I will give you an answer in one day."
Vaye lowered his head, gave a soft "um", and silently said to Dorks with his lips: I'm sorry.
Dorks understood that Vaye was apologizing for his inability to resist Black Earl, and his friend was hurt.
Docks couldn't say anything, so he sighed and patted Wai on the shoulder: "Don't be like a woman, this is not a big deal."
After a pause, Docks said again: "By the way, after I leave, you might as well continue to ask Black Earl, if you follow, will our entire adventure team be safe?"
Wai nodded: "Okay."
After that, Dox patted his old friend on the shoulder again, sighed helplessly in his heart, came to the bar, asked the bartender to take care of Vay, and then he quietly left the Cross Bar.
After Dorks left the bar, he wandered the street for a long time, thinking about what Earl Black was going to do.
And how can I help Wye.
But Earl Black is a figure standing at the top of the Pyramid of the Southern Territories, and it is difficult for Docs to figure out his thoughts.
With a sigh, Docks finally walked towards the black market outside the Sandworm Bazaar. This time it was his mistake that led to the appearance of Wye. Regardless of this matter, we still have to explain and apologize to Angel and Kael.
Moreover, Angel is leaning against the Barbarian Cavern, and he also knows about the ruins. Maybe he knows what Black Earl's intention is?
After all, there is still a big gap between organized and unorganized wizards in core intelligence.
