"You, have your mycelial larvae been removed?" Kael hesitated and walked to VAI. He subconsciously preferred to stay near VAI, who was also an apprentice.
Wai didn't say anything, just nodded silently.
Although Kael thought VAI's reaction was a little strange, he didn't think much about it. He asked, "didn't you say it was difficult to clean up before? Why did you clean up all of a sudden?"
As soon as the voice fell, cael felt something wrong in the atmosphere, because he inadvertently left DOX standing opposite.
Dox twisted his fist, covered his mouth, turned his face sideways, and his shoulders shook. Looks like... Snickering?
Cael looked at the other side in confusion. Angel didn't have any expression, but looked at himself with deep eyes.
The atmosphere was so strange that Kael was suddenly at a loss. He turned his head and wanted to ask VAI. As a result, he found that VAI, who had been silent before, looked at the dark void with his head held up 45 degrees. Through the light source over the arena, he could see that his eyes were slightly moist, as if there were water light in it.
VAI, is this... Crying?
When Kael doubted whether he was wrong, the voice of the black count suddenly came.
"The end is still you, but then a replacement."
Black count's tone didn't mean any discussion, and cael naturally didn't dare to refuse. As for who to change, you don't have to think about it. Only VAI can.
Did VAI cry because he resisted the duel?
If so, there is no need to worry. Before that, Lord Chaowei had already communicated with him every battle mode. For example, angel planned his duel with pink mo.
So, just tell Wai about the battle strategy, and you won't resist it?
Kael tried and asked his guess in a tactful way.
In this regard, the black count did not speak, but sneered. VAI seemed not to hear it at all, like a lost soul, with no light in his eyes and looking into the distance.
At this time, angel gave the answer in his mind tie: "there is no communication strategy. As before, VAI will have his own layout."
Kael: "no communication strategy? But..."
Kael wanted to say, isn't VAI very resistant? But when the words came to his mouth, he still didn't say it. Instead, he said, "however, the remaining two apprentices opposite seem difficult to deal with..."
Whether it's the giant demon elephant who can't see clearly, or the shepherd who leans on the black faced sheep, it looks much better than pink mo. Especially the demon elephant, with his thick blood, cael could feel the threat from afar. As for the shepherd, although I can't see how strong he is, the black count has clearly said that he is a "rhythm apprentice".
As long as it is a rhythm apprentice, even if it is not the strongest rhythm of water, it must not be underestimated.
Angel comforted: "don't worry, the ghost's ability to restrain VAI was quite good before. Didn't VAI also rely on himself to turn defeat into victory? Believe VAI, he will have his own strategy. Moreover, compared with the duel with the ghost, VAI can at least know who his opponent is in the next duel, which also gives him more time to think about the layout."
Because there are only two apprentices on the opposite side. No matter who Kael will fight next, the remaining one must be VAI's opponent.
Of course, this premise is that Kael must win the next duel. Otherwise, VAI will face the wheel battle between two opponents.
However, when angel said so, he was sure that Kael would win. After all, the card he gave cael has now revealed a nightmare mark. If he can't even deal with one person, how can angel call it a card?
Cael was right to think so. If he deals with the demon elephant, VAI only needs to think about how to deal with the shepherd; vice versa.
In this way, VAI can know who his opponent is in advance and give him a long time to prepare. As Lord Chaowei said, believe VAI, he will have his own strategy.
Thinking of this, Kael nodded, "I see."
Angel smiled and said, "just understand."
After a pause, angel suddenly added: "besides, won't you be able to play even if VAI loses?"
This duel is different from the rules of the sky tower. The winner can choose to let his teammates go at any time and rest himself. It's no problem to go again after enough rest. The losers are eliminated directly and have no qualification to go up again.
Therefore, as long as Kael wins in the next game, even if VAI loses in the next game, Kael still has a chance to play again and win back.
Angel winked at Kael with an expression of "I look after you".
Kael was stunned for a moment. Although there was no problem with what Lord Chaowei said, he... Said "trust VAI" one second before, and suddenly said it the next second. Kael didn't know what to return. Moreover, is Lord Chaowei optimistic about VAI or not?
Cael didn't ask, but Angel read his eyes.
Is he optimistic or not? This question is difficult for angel himself to answer. After all, he doesn't know whether the black count will also prepare cards for VAI, and whether VAI's layout can really achieve the degree of victory.
In terms of winning rate, he is more optimistic about Kael because Kael has the cards he gives. Therefore, angel is more optimistic about himself than about VAI or Kael.
Without much explanation, angel smiled and said, "you played a good duel. Keep going."
With these words, angel was ready to end the short conversation.
However, at the last moment, Kael asked the deepest doubt in his heart: "my Lord, VAI just seemed to cry... It's a little strange. What's the matter with him?"
Angel paused for a second and then replied, "well, I think you'd better not ask now. After you leave here and return to the Sandworm market, you can ask DOX alone. Well... If you're still interested in this question at that time."
Angle has a deep meaning and gives an ambiguous answer.
Although Kael is still confused, he always doesn't pay much attention to other things except trace intelligence. Since Lord Chaowei said so, maybe there are some unspeakable tricks in it? If so, Kael still thinks it's better not to understand.
After talking, Kael's excitement about victory has gradually calmed down. Moreover, only one more person needs to be dealt with later, which alleviates Kael's psychological burden again.
Soon, the voice of the wise man's master sounded, and the duel would begin again.
Kael was still the first to take the stage. Not long after he took the stage, a melodious field minor was introduced into his ears.
Kael raised his head and looked opposite. In the backlight, a green man with long hair wearing a sheep demon mask hummed and walked leisurely onto the competitive platform.
His pace is relaxed and leisurely, just like wandering in his backyard. With the loose robes and a random bunch of green long hair, it adds a bit of leisure.
If there is no mask, it is estimated that it will be more lazy.
When Kael thought so, his opponent stood more than ten meters away, stopped humming, and then took off the sheep demon mask on his face.
Before that, the ghost has also taken off the mask, but the ghost taking off the mask is more like a kind of momentum. It only takes half, gives people reverie, and then puts it on. The atmosphere is full, but there is no real effect.
The man took off the mask and really opened it to reveal his true face. Under the mask, there is a young man who is not handsome, but feels gentle and elegant, and matches his temperament.
After he took off the sheep demon mask, the mask automatically became smaller and was pinned around his waist.
Only then did the other party look up at Kael. The piccolo turned gently and gracefully saluted: "shepherd, please give me more advice."
Cael thought for a moment and whispered, "traveler."
The shepherd was slightly stunned and said with a smile, "your name is traveler? It has a lot to do with my name."
Kael frowned. The names of traveler and Shepherd should not be related to each other? Kael was angry in his heart, but he remained silent on his face.
The shepherd saw that Kael didn't answer and was not angry. He still said gently, "our hearts are not in place."
Before Kael understood the meaning of the shepherd, the shepherd spontaneously explained: "the traveler's heart is in the distance. And the shepherd's heart is also in the distance, in the windy woods, on the shore of the white sand floating waves, in the fertile soil of the water and grass, and... On the starry fields with endless brilliance."
Cael was stunned by this series of paibijia chants, and it took him a while to recover: "you are not like a shepherd, but more like a bard."
The shepherd smiled and said, "in fact, both are the same. The shepherd grazes the sheep led by his hand; the poet grazes the sheep galloping in his heart."
Every word of the shepherd, put in other populations, will make people feel embarrassed. But somehow, the shepherd spoke with an elegant rhythm, as if these words should have come from his mouth, which would not make people feel uncomfortable at all, but would only feel noble and pleasant.
If in a moonlight night, with a harp in hand, a young girl in Huaichun hears the shepherd's chant, she will probably fall on the spot.
In the face of such an elegant opponent, Kael was suddenly embarrassed and didn't know what to answer.
Don't speak, as if lower than the other party. But when he spoke, he seemed to be inferior.
This sudden and spiritual dilemma made Kael feel cramped and uneasy.
Kael's mind seemed to be seen by the shepherd. On the contrary, the shepherd smiled gently and said, "the footsteps of travelers never stop. I think they must have seen a lot of scenery?"
Kael subconsciously replied, "I like to explore relics."
Shepherd: "sure enough, travelers have their own hobbies and goals, and keep moving forward for such goals. It's really envy. Although my heart is far away, my body still stays where it is."
Kael: "why?"
The shepherd paused for a second and said with a smile, "because I want to shepherd."
The shepherd's voice fell, and the voice of the wise master sounded in time: "gossip can stop, and the duel begins."
Although the wise master had said that the duel would begin, neither the shepherd nor Kael started immediately.
The shepherd turned a flower with his flute and then held it: "actually, I don't like fighting very much. I prefer playing the flute. Do you have any music you want to hear?"
Kael did not speak, but stretched out his hand and gently scratched a space crack around him.
The crack grows slowly until it can accommodate one person in and out. At this time, from the crack... Now it should be called the crack. A tall figure came out of the crack.
The visitors are bathed in metallic luster and full of mechanical beauty.
"Alchemy puppet." The shepherd raised his eyebrows.
Kael did not say a word or let the alchemy puppet come forward, but looked at the shepherd with vigilance.
The shepherd shrugged: "since you didn't answer, I'll just play a song... Do you like the sound of the wind?"
At the moment when the voice fell, the shepherd raised his flute to his mouth, and a melodious tune sounded.
With the tune came a gentle wind wrapped around the shepherd.
The shepherd went up in the wind and hung in the air.
At this time, the shepherd put down his Piccolo and looked at Kael: "the rhythm of the wind is an ode for travelers."
When Kael wondered, the shepherd's tune sounded again. This time, the surrounding wind was no longer gentle and began to become thick.
It seems that there are wisps of mist and thick and light staggered rain clouds around. Under the heavy wind, the thick clouds turn into dark colors and hover continuously.
In front of Kael's eyes, it seemed that there was a long road full of lightning, storm and clouds.
At this time, Kael seemed to understand what the shepherd meant by "Ode for travelers".
This is a traveler's journey epic and a long song played for travelers.
Everyone who embarks on a journey will not have a smooth road ahead, with ups and downs. This is a bumpy road full of unknown, a thorny road, a road shrouded by heavy rain and wind.
The shepherd's role at this time is to block the rainstorm and wind in front of the travelers. Through the past, is an ode; Falling down here is the death knell!
It has to be said that the shepherd's "momentum" is much stronger than the ghost before.
If "momentum building" is also divided into connotation and externality, the ghost is only superficial externality, while the shepherd has both connotation and externality.
Under this momentum, even Kael was almost "occupied".
——Being so valued by the shepherd, Kael suddenly had the impulse to give up using external means and give up the puppet of alchemy. He wants to fight and win with his ability like VAI.
However, this is the thought between thoughts.
Cael knew the situation clearly. If he really gave up on extraneous means, his chances of winning would not be too great. At this critical moment, if he loses the duel because of his willfulness, he will feel guilty himself.
What's more, compared with the "real battle", Kael expects to go to the left land after victory.
Heritage exploration is more interesting than anything else.
With this in mind, Kael didn't think about it any more and focused on dealing with the battle that must not be lost.
