During this time, many "guests" came to William's room!
Mice, birds, ducks...
It was really lively.
Whenever these cute little animals left and returned to Asclepius's room, William would take out the magic mirror and let the magic mirror show the scene of Asclepius's room.
Crothos Asclepius proudly thought he had control of William's every move in the palace, but he did not know that his every word and deed was in William's eyes.
When you are spying on others, others are also spying on you!
After a few days, William finally figured out the special abilities of King Crothos Asclepius.
It's not that he can control animals like the man in black robe before, but he can understand the language of animals.
The little animals he sent to supervise William were just helpers trained by the king.
Also, if you can understand the language of animals, then training animals will be easy!
This is simply the skill that William, the circus animal trainer in his previous life, dreamed of!
No wonder this old guy Crothos Asclepius knew his situation and claimed that there was no secret he didn't know. It turned out that he could get the answer from animals.
It is really man who is doing it, heaven is watching, and this Asclepius of Crothos is listening!
All beasts are his eyes and ears, how many things can be hidden from him?
William was fortunate that King Crothos Asclepius should not have known about the situation of his magic mirror.
The use of the magic mirror is relatively secretive, so animals rarely notice its abnormality!
Moreover, although Asclepius of Crosso could understand the words between animals, Asclepius of Crosso certainly could not see all the animals in the world.
Maybe some animals discovered the strangeness of William's magic mirror, but it would take Asclepius the opportunity to encounter these animals before he could learn this secret from their mouths!
But obviously, this is completely impossible to do.
Crothos Asclepius' ability to know the language of animals is far inferior to William's magic mirror in terms of surveillance!
This ability is very similar to the "animal companion" witchcraft passed down from the God's Attendant family, both of which can understand the speech of animals. The difference is that Asclepius Crothos does not seem to be able to communicate directly with animals.
, and the witchcraft of "Animal Partner" can have one-on-one conversations with animals!
However, this ability of Crothos Asclepius feels easier to use, and its application seems to be wider!
"Animal companion" is a witchcraft that requires a person with magical powers to use it.
William is not, so cannot be used.
However, according to the magic mirror detection, Crothos Asclepius did not have magic power, which means that he was also an ordinary person like William.
The fact that he has this ability means that this ability does not require magic power!
Also, the "Animal Companion" can only be with one animal at a time, but the animal-knowing ability of Crothos Asclepius can understand the languages of all animals at the same time, with no limit on the number or type.
Both abilities have their own pros and cons!
Although William owns the magic mirror, he is also greedy for this skill.
At certain critical moments, this ability may be able to achieve miraculous feats!
After all, the magic mirror doesn’t understand the language of animals!
When it comes to magical abilities, William is open to all comers.
William wants to get this ability.
So he ordered the magic mirror to supervise Crothos Asclepius 24 hours a day.
Whenever Asclepius of Crothos behaves strangely, such as what potion he drank, what pills he took, or what medicinal incense he used, report them all to William!
But after a month, the magic mirror seemed to have gained nothing at all. Crothos Asclepius behaved normally. Except for listening to the animal report about William's situation every day, he ate and drank normally, and ate a white snake raw alone at night.
and conduct state affairs.
He even gave William a feeling as if he was born with this ability!
This is not impossible.
Since talking to Pan's family of waiters, William knows that the water in this world is actually very deep.
The age of mythology has gone far away, and the gods of the past have been overthrown from their thrones, but their bloodline is secretly passed down among mortals.
Those who inherit the bloodline of the old gods often possess some strange abilities.
It cannot be ruled out that this was the case for Asclepius of Crothos.
But if Asclepius of Crothos really had this strange ability because of his bloodline from the old gods, it stands to reason that it would also be reflected in his descendants.
But in fact, William used the magic mirror to scan all the members of the Asclepius family in the palace, but no one had the ability to perform as Crothos Asclepius.
Not even a tiny bit!
In other words, this ability to understand animal language almost certainly has nothing to do with family blood.
The key still lies in the foreign treasures.
But William has been monitoring for a month with no results!
Instead, I received warm hospitality and earnest requests from Crothos Asclepius every day!
He even brought a young paralyzed man with various pustules all over his body, and said to William sadly that this was his unfortunate child! He hoped that William would help him, and he would be willing to pay no matter what the cost.
In order to ask William to take action, Crothos Asclepius had already offered the title and territory of an earl.
Whenever this happens, William will show embarrassment and worry, as well as a hint of eagerness to try.
In his heart, he sneered and despised Crothos Asclepius. Did he think he could just find a tramp and dress him in gorgeous clothes and pretend to be his son?
It’s not because William practices swordplay in his room every day that he doesn’t know anything!
You really treat him like a three-year-old child!
But now that I know the magical ability of Asclepius of Crothos and see through his lies, I find that he is still so unrepentant about the snake leaves!
William also became very interested in these snake leaves!
William would definitely not believe that the function of these snake leaves is only to detoxify!
It must have more miraculous effects!
It’s just that William doesn’t know it yet!
But speaking of it, things like snake leaves reminded William of a certain fairy tale. The snake leaves in it can restore the body of a snake that has been broken into three parts, and can make the dead come back to life.
I wonder if this snake leaf has anything to do with it?
It's a pity that although snake leaves are good, they are not what William wants most at the moment!
What William wants most now is information about the golden apple!
However, no matter how William asked, Crothos Asclepius refused to tell. He just asked William to help him bring back the snake leaf. When the time comes, he will naturally tell William the whereabouts of the golden apple.
Crothos Asclepius is such a bad old man that William believes in him!
William even suspected that Asclepius of Asclepius did not know the whereabouts of the golden apple at all, but was just using false information to trick him into selling his life.
After really getting the snake leaf, maybe this bad old man will turn his back on it!
If he hadn't coveted the magical abilities of Asclepius of Crothos, William would have left long ago.
After all, William's current goal is to obtain the golden apple, obtain magic affinity, and embark on the path of a wizard.
But as time passed day by day, William's surveillance always failed to produce any results, and his patience wore away little by little, and he could no longer hold on.
Until one day, the magic mirror suddenly reported to William the news that the honest guard of Crosso Asclepius had stolen the white snake of Crosso Asclepius.
Suddenly a flash of lightning flashed in William's mind, and he remembered a long-ago Grimm's fairy tale.
