Sunders gave Angor a strange look. "When did I say that?"
"Huh? Not the other way around? "
Before leaving the Overwatch Base, Angor asked the guards of the Moonfrost Union about a portal that led to the second layer of the Abyss Plane.
Angor thought they were here to look for the portal.
"Of course not."
"Then what are we doing here?" Angor asked.
"Like I said, there's an area with stable space inside the mountain range. Since we're going to bring you back to the wizarding world, we need to find a place with stable space."
It sounded like they were going to return to the wizarding world directly from there.
Was Sunders not going to use the portal of Moonfrost Union?
However, other than the Moonfrost Union, there shouldn't be any other organization that has a fixed passage in the Abyss. Even if there was, the Abyss Plane would not be open to outsiders.
If so, why did Sunders sound so confident?
Angor suddenly thought of a possibility. Section Ephemera! Angor wasn't the only one who got a Section Ephemera from Greya's Barbie's Restaurant. Sunders had one as well.
Was Sunders planning to use Section Ephemera to create a portal to the wizarding world?
Sunders spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, "Moonfrost Union opened the portal not long ago. They won't open it for me alone. If we want to leave, we need Section Ephemera.
"Also, according to my calculations, the plane fusion at Parmigi Highlands is coming to an end in these two days. Since we're using Section Ephemera to bring you back to Brute Cavern, we need to find another place to make up for it. "
Sunders didn't plan to get involved in the plane fusion. But since he was going to bring Angor back to the wizarding world, he might as well participate in the event.
The final phase of the plane fusion might not bring them much benefits, but they could at least get something out of it. No matter how much they gained, they still needed Section Ephemera.
But when Angor learned that Sunders was going to fuse with the Plane of Sword, he began to doubt himself.
When he returned to Brute Cavern, he immediately went to the Abyss Plane not only to find Sunders, but also to avoid the plane fusion at Parmigi Highlands.
Would the Alien Eye react if he followed Sunders back to Parmigi Highlands?
He already told Sunders about Jon, but he didn't plan to reveal the secret of the Alien Eye. It was not that he did not want to talk about it, but Jon forbade him from doing so.
According to Jon, if the Alien Eye could bring him to the wizarding world from Earth, it might have recorded the coordinates of Earth. If it fell into the hands of the sorcerers, it was very likely that they would use the Alien Eye to find the Earth. It would be a great disaster for the Earth.
Chown would rather be buried in a foreign land than bring disaster to his homeland.
This was his strength of character, and also his obsession.
Angor grew up under the influence of two different civilizations, so he knew Jon's way of thinking. Therefore, he couldn't reveal the Alien Eye's anomaly without being certain.
But now, Sunders chose to return to Brute Cavern at the end of the plane fusion. What if something really happened to the Alien Eye when he returned to the wizarding world?
Angor was both anxious and uneasy.
"We can't stay here for too long. Time to go. This place isn't far from the stable space. If we move fast, we should be able to reach it in two hours. "Sunders stood up and prepared to leave.
Angor hesitated. "It's rare for the outside world to be so peaceful. Should we take a rest?"
"The quieter it is, the more likely something will go wrong." Sunders put on his white gloves and looked at the dark sky outside the cave. He couldn't help but feel uneasy.
When they first arrived here, they were attacked frequently. But now, it was so peaceful. Something was wrong.
Perhaps something really bad was going to happen at Lightless Mountain.
For his own safety, leaving as soon as possible was the best choice.
Angor had no other excuses. He sighed and put out the fire on the ground. He put Toby back into his pocket and followed Sunders out of the cave.
"If you're content with your comfort, the storm will be stronger." Sunders didn't try to pry into Angor's thoughts. He just assumed that Angor was enjoying his comfort zone.
Angor followed Sunders step by step. He only responded to Sunders' words once in a while, but he didn't really listen to Sunders' words. He was lost in his thoughts.
He wondered if there was any excuse he could use to delay Sunders for two more days.
At least, it would be best to return after the plane fusion.
Sunders suddenly said, "A storm is coming —"
A storm? Angor looked up and saw a group of Bone-Winged Demons flying across the sky without him noticing.
Bone-Winged Demons were imps, but they were among the strongest among imps. Even when facing an official Magus, it could exert immense pressure.
Even experienced wizards had a high chance of losing in a one-on-one fight.
With a squad of bone-winged demons here, they should be able to put up a fight against a truth-finder wizard.
Angor looked at the flying demons with bright eyes. If Sunders fought them head-on, it would take him some time to win.
For the first time, Angor hoped to run into monsters along the way.
It would be best if Sunders could take care of them, but it would take some time.
These Bone-Winged Demons were a good example.
Angor's eyes lit up. "Professor, I've activated Infinite Reticence."
In other words, Sunders didn't need to worry about Sunders anymore.
"Shh!" Sunders created a Spirit Bond and spoke to Angor through it. "Don't make a sound. They haven't found us yet. Hide behind the rock and don't move."
Angor could not believe that Sunders, who had been using his fists to solve problems along the way, was going to run away?
Sunders noticed Angor's surprise and spoke through the Spirit Bond, "There's something wrong with Twilight Mountain right now. Don't waste time if you can."
Angor sighed in his mind. It seemed his plan to buy time was not going to work.
Angor could not lure the Bone-Winged Demons here, so he had no choice but to follow Sunders and wait for the "storm" to pass.
Ten minutes later, the Bone-Winged Demons went to another area. Sunders did not waste any time and quickly headed toward the designated route.
Angor had learned something new along the way.
The Bone-Winged Demons were not "storms" at all. Maybe they were not even "drizzling rain". There were even mid-tier demons and grand demons in the end. These grand demons were almost as strong as Sunders, and Sunders would not be able to take care of Angor in a real fight.
Angor now realized how naive he was to "hope" that they would run into monsters.
There were too many of them, and they were all packed together. Angor would not be able to deal with them at all. Even if Sunders had three heads and six arms, he would not be able to handle all of them.
Therefore, it was best for them to hide quietly.
Besides, seeing so many enemies appearing at Twilight Mountain, Angor began to believe Sunders' words. Perhaps something was really going to happen at Twilight Mountain.
While hiding, the originally planned "two hours" journey ended up being half a day. Only then did they arrive at the most stable region in the Dim Light Mountain Range — Wind Whisper Valley.
Although it was called a valley, it was not narrow at all. It was more like a low-lying plain sandwiched between several mountains.
There were plants and canals here, which was a rare sight in the Abyss.
"Windwhisper Valley is often used as a locator point by wizards. When Samantha went to Sky Island to send a message, she used this place as a springboard." Sunders took Angor to the northern side of the valley, where there was a hidden passage that led to an underground cave.
According to Sunders, Windwhisper Valley was not only a stable place, but also a place where monsters rarely showed up. It could also be used as a shelter.
There were many man-made traces in the underground cave because of the shelter.
If it were not for the fact that there were too many demons in the third level of Abyss, Windwhisper Valley would definitely be considered as a base city.
Angor followed Sunders to the underground cave. It was quiet inside, and the air was a little damp.
"The only entrance to the cave is the passage from before, and there are no other forks in the cave. It's safe here. I'm going to use Section Ephemera here."
Angor had no choice but to agree.
He only hoped that Sunders would not set the destination at Parmigi Highlands.
"The space at Parmigi Highlands must be unstable right now. Why don't you set the coordinates further away, such as Yali Duchy?"
Sunders rejected Angor's suggestion.
"The space at Parmigi Highlands is unstable, but the coordinates near Brute Cavern are. I'll set the exit near Windwhisper Town. "
Windwhisper Town was the closest underground town to Brute Cavern's mirror world. Geographically speaking, it belonged to Darkivil Empire.
In fact, most of the residents here were the relatives of supernaturals from Brute Cavern. Also, Brute Cavern's airships were docked at Windwhisper Town.
Angor could only smile awkwardly. He was already thinking about what excuse he should use when he returned to the wizarding world if the Alien Eye showed up.
