Sunders didn't ask too much about what happened in Shadow Cave since they were going to leave tomorrow.
Now that he knew Angor was innocent, he didn't say anything else. As long as Angor didn't cause trouble for them, everything would be fine.
Sunders brought Angor into the gravity garden, where the giant snake's body was still lying in the open air.
What Sunders meant was that Angor was the one who lured the serpent out. He only brought Angor here to ask if Angor had any body parts he wanted.
Angor hesitated for a moment and pointed at the blood flowing out of the snake's wound. "Is this useful?"
Sunders explained in a plain tone, "The snake's emotional field affected its blood as well. I don't think it can be used for anything other than making blood ink."
Angor was a little disappointed. He was planning to use the blood as a substitute for Akeso's blood to feed the soft worms, but it seemed that the snake's emotions had affected the worm's blood.
Apart from the snake's blood, Angor didn't really care about the other parts. In the end, Sunders gave Angor the snake's scale-covered skin and one of its poisonous fangs.
Sunders meant that Angor could use alchemy to refine the snake's skin for defense and the fang for attack. Both of them were the best parts of the snake, and they were quite valuable. This was Sunders' way of showing his care for Angor.
Angor took the chance to tell Sunders about Akeso's essence blood.
According to Kanter, Akeso's essence blood contained unlimited life force. It might be a poison for wizards, but it was a holy item for mortals and low-level lifeforms.
Angor wanted to know if Akeso's essence blood could help Jon or not.
Sunders already heard about Akeso's essence blood from Kanter. He didn't know where Angor got such a powerful essence blood, but he didn't ask. "I haven't seen Jon yet, so I can't tell. But in his current condition, the potion will do him harm no matter how powerful it is. Besides, the essence blood you mentioned came from a wizard-level monster. "
Angor planned to go back to his room and check on Toby after leaving the gravity garden.
However, he suddenly stopped halfway as if he thought of something.
He took out a porcelain bottle filled with water from his bracelet and handed it to Sunders. "Professor, this is for you."
Angor placed the bottle on the desk and left without saying anything.
Sunders was still smiling. He thought to himself, "This kid actually knows how to show respect to his teacher …" But when he looked at the bottle, his smile froze.
Under the light of the fireplace, the bottle cast a gentle ripple on the desk. Inside the ripple, three silver-scaled shrimps were hugging each other and trembling in fear.
Looking at the three shrimps in the bottle, Sunders could not help but twitch his forehead.
"Turbulent Silver Hoop. Heh." Sunders' eyes were cold as he snorted. He took a deep look outside the study and finally put away the porcelain bottle with complicated and jumbled feelings.
Angor, who had already left the study, suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
The Turbulent Silver Rings were good for men … Sunders should have sensed his kindness, right?
When he returned to his room, he took Toby out of his pocket and put it on his small bed.
He did a quick scan on Toby's body when he was being chased by the serpent, so he planned to do a second check.
He quickly checked Toby's body and confirmed that the bird was only exhausted and did not suffer from any external injuries. Angor relaxed a bit.
Angor was curious about what happened to Toby in Shadow Cave. Since Toby was still sleeping, he decided to wait for the bird to wake up and ask about it.
In the end, this wait lasted until the next morning.
The snow outside had not stopped falling. Accompanied by the howling cold wind, the unique sound of the horn began to reverberate in the fortress.
The sound of the horn woke up the slumbering fortress. The apprentices, who had been lazing around for many days, put away their indulgence and walked out of their rooms with apprehension and uncertainty about the future on their faces.
Today was the day they were going to move to the frontlines, and the horn was the signal for them to gather.
"Time to go," Sunders' voice came from outside the door.
Angor looked at Toby who was still sleeping. He had no choice but to put Toby's bed inside his bracelet and carefully put Toby back into his pocket.
Toby didn't realize it at all and even rolled around in his pocket.
They also bid farewell to the small house they had been staying in for a few days.
Angor thought Dokibell would come to see them off, but Samantha took out a Frozen Wing from somewhere. It was not as big as the one Angor used in the wizarding world, but it was still quite large.
However, even with the Frost Wings, there were too many people in the Overwatch Base. In the end, only the Moonfrost guards and the apprentices sat on the Frost Wings. The rest of the wizards sat on their own vehicles.
Angor quickly took out his Gondola and boarded it. Of course, Angor didn't say no when Kanter joined him with a big grin on his face. Angor didn't reject the offer.
However, he wasn't looking at the ship. Instead, he was looking around the fortress.
Madelyne took good care of him on their way to the Abyss Plane. She also rode on his Gondola, so he planned to take her with him before leaving the Abyss Plane.
However, after looking around, he didn't see Madelyne.
Sunders did not answer Angor's question. It seemed Sunders was not satisfied with the gift he received yesterday. Instead, he gave Angor a cold stare.
On the other side, Kanter explained with a smile, "Madelyne has already left."
Angor couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect Madelyne to come to the Overwatch Base to seek revenge against Easterner. Madelyne didn't stand a chance against Easterner. But now, thanks to the Pilgrim of Misfortune, Madelyne finally saw a chance for revenge.
While lamenting, Angor took out a porcelain bottle containing Turbulent Silver Rings from his bracelet and handed it to Kanter.
He already planned to give it to Kanter as a gift, and now he wanted to thank Kanter for his help.
Kanter took the bottle and looked at it with a puzzled expression.
After a while, he said with an unsightly expression, "Cough cough, actually, I don't need this …"
Angor was about to tell Kanter that it was a gift, but Sunders, who had been quiet all this while, suddenly spoke up. "You're too kind, Angor. This thing is more suitable for Kanter."
Sunders emphasized the word "more".
Angor finally realized something from Sunders' words. Something was wrong with the Turbulent Silver Hoop.
No wonder Sunders didn't look right since last night.
But at this time, even if he wanted to explain that he didn't do it on purpose, he couldn't do it. He couldn't explain, "I'm not saying that you guys can't do it, but the Turbulent Silver Hoop can make you guys better!"
Angor didn't know how to explain himself. Kanter tried his best to reject the offer, while Sunders was trying to encourage Kanter to accept the Turbulent Silver Rings. But in reality, Sunders was trying to tell Angor that he didn't like what Kanter gave him.
The atmosphere lasted until they moved to the Overwatch Base.
When the sound of the horn stopped, the Frost Wings extended their icy feathers. Accompanied by the heavy atmosphere, they gradually moved away from the huge fortress made of reinforced concrete.
Angor didn't stay in the Overwatch Base for long, but he still felt a little regretful when he saw the giant steel fortress being abandoned because of the unexpected arrival of a "Pilgrim of Misfortune".
At the same time, he also learned something about the unpredictable nature of the Abyss Plane.
One second, he could see a tall building, and the next, he could see it collapsing. The rise and fall of something could happen in the blink of an eye.
The frontline this time was Kodo Port near the Dark Ocean Vortex, and the chosen route was west along the Dim Light Mountain Range. They could have gone down the Misna River in the Shadow Hill, but according to intelligence, there were often a large number of demons gathering in the middle and lower reaches of the Misna River. In addition, there were also many terrifying monsters in the river, so they could only give up.
However, this had nothing to do with Sunders and Angor.
They weren't going to Port of Kodo. Instead, they planned to take a detour halfway. Sunders planned to take Angor back to Brute Cavern. However, they had to choose a place with stable spatial energy. And within the Dim Light Mountain Range that they were about to head to, there was one.
Due to the large number of apprentices, the Frozen Wings didn't travel too fast. It would take them half a day to reach the Dim Mountain Range from the outskirts of Critical Forest.
However, they ran into a series of mishaps along the way.
They were harassed by monsters from time to time. In the worst case, a group of cursed cultivators from the Demon Monastery showed up.
Although they managed to escape, a portion of the apprentices were also cursed. Many of them even died because of the curse.
What was supposed to be a half-day journey was only in the wee hours of the morning when they finally saw the undulating curve of the Dim Light Mountain Range.
"I clearly chose the safest route, but I didn't expect something like this to happen." Kanter sighed.
"There's no such thing as the safest route in the Abyss Plane. Besides, we're in a dangerous situation right now."
Angor, who was sitting beside Sunders, was wearing a serious expression.
It wasn't because of the mishaps. It was because he noticed something wrong with Toby's condition.
Even if Toby tried his best, he shouldn't be sleeping for two days.
More importantly, when they encountered the cursed cultivators, a powerful half-blood demon suddenly showed up and tried to stab Angor in the chest with its bloody claws. Angor quickly ejected his soul and took Toby away, which saved him from the attack.
Angor tried to wake Toby up as a precaution.
However, Toby didn't wake up no matter how hard he tried. That was when Angor noticed something was wrong.
