Since he promised to let the demon experience Ocean Rhyme today, he couldn't go back on his word. He had to think of a way to satisfy the Young Flame Demon as much as possible without really hurting it.
Angor considered for a moment. Since the immature demon never experienced the Ocean Rhythm, he could use other illusions to replace it with another one.
With a general idea in mind, Angor began to think about what kind of illusion he should use to deal with the demon.
As time went by, the wind chimes in the yard rang more than once.
Angor also went downstairs from time to time to activate Ocean Rhyme for the customers. However, he was a little puzzled that the Immortal Flame Demon did not appear during this process.
Angor sighed in relief, but at the same time, he was also puzzled. Judging from how annoying the demon was, it shouldn't have given up so easily. Did the Fire-servant Demon persuade it to stop? If so, thank you very much.
In just half a day, Angor received five batches of customers, each with 30 people. In other words, he earned more than 45,000 demon gold coins.
This was an unimaginable number. Canaan, who had been living in Demon City for ten years, never saw such a huge amount of money.
Among the five groups of guests, there was a half-blood demon and two imps who had triggered an anomaly. As a result, more and more people were paying attention to the Illusion Hut, and its popularity was still rising.
Because of the obvious income, even the customers could see it. Many people had their eyes on the Illusion Hut.
Although they were already very ostentatious right now, if they continued to do business today and earned 9000 Demon gold coins per batch, perhaps they wouldn't just be targeted. The envious Demons would probably disregard everything and start preparing to act.
Angor decided to close the shop. He already earned enough money, and he didn't want to waste his demon gold coins. Besides, he was worried that the demon might show up again. Closing the shop as soon as possible would give him an excuse.
However, even though Angor closed the shop, the aftermath did not stop.
…
The third level of Abyss Plane. Above the inverted waterfalls, Sky Island.
The once bustling Sky Island was now a sea of fire and ruins. Dilapidated walls, smoke rising from all directions, withered limbs, and corpses that had fallen into eternal silence amidst the sparks.
A braided child who was missing an arm knelt on the ground as tears silently flowed down his face.
In front of him was the corpse of an acolyte. It was short and plump, and even though it had lost all signs of life, its face still carried the simple and honest look of a good person.
If Angor was here, he would immediately recognize the two apprentices who were with Bobota. They were also the ones who told Angor about the Silver Ring and Toby.
The braided child's head slowly drooped down and rested on the belly of the short and fat apprentice, crying silently.
Dusky and Bobota were the only ones who supported and cared for him in the abyss of despair, preventing him from sinking into despair. But now, it was all over.
Bobota had mysteriously disappeared on his way to the Overwatch Bastion. In the Lightless Mountains, where demons were everywhere, Bobota's chances of surviving were close to zero.
Now that Tasky was also killed by the terrifying evil god, this was the first time the braided child felt despair and endless loneliness.
There were many others who shared the same fate. The short and fat apprentice wasn't the only one who died in this strange battle. There were even official Magi who had fallen under the attacks of the evil god.
"What are you looking at?" It was an old man with white eyebrows and a triangular wizard hat. He was the current master of Lilith Clan, Eventide Kanter.
Sunders looked away from the braided child and shook his head. "Nothing. I'm just looking at the ruins of Sky Island. I'm sorry I came too late."
Kanter also noticed the corpses in the ruins and sighed. "Sigh. Some Soul Warlocks are already collecting souls. Let's see if they can find their way back."
"The Pilgrim of Misfortune didn't enter the Overwatch Bastion, but we still got tricked," Kanter cursed. Kanter couldn't help but curse. "It's all that glutton Brofen's fault. He couldn't wait to steam Olof's Tentacle Crab as soon as he got back to Sky Island."
Kanter already learned from Sunders that Olof's Tentacle Crab was probably tainted by misfortune, which caused Brofen's condition to worsen.
"It's not just Brofen." Sunders shook his head. "More than one wizard died in this battle, so there are many more who ate Olof's Tentacle Crab. Who would've thought that Brofen was trying to resurrect a powerful evil god, and he became the source of the disaster?"
Kanter knew that everyone, including Brofen, was innocent in some way, but he just couldn't stand it.
Not only did Brofen survive, but he also did something that made him as thin as a bamboo pole. Not only did he lose all his fat, but he also expelled the curse from his body.
Kanter gritted his teeth as he thought about it. He was the one who had caused all this trouble, but he was the one who was living the most carefree life. He was the one who had been seriously injured during the Evil God Rebellion.
Before Kanter could complain, a cold wind suddenly came from the sky.
Along with the cold wind, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
These snowflakes danced softly in the air, swirling in the wind and landing on the ruins of the beacon, as well as the sorrowful apprentices.
The snow washed away the bloodstains on the ground and extinguished the smoke from yesterday's battle. At the same time, it also healed the injuries of the apprentices who were still alive.
Clearly, this was not an ordinary snowstorm.
Two diamond-shaped snowflakes landed on Sunders and Kanter's bodies and melted into water. At the same time, they sensed a message being transmitted to their ears.
"You received it too? Mister Monkey asked us to go there, "Kanter said.
Sunders nodded. The Traceless Snow that covered the entire Sky Island could heal, clean, and transmit messages. Only Mister Monkey, who was also known as "Endless Frost", could do something like this.
No one knew whether it was good luck or bad luck. Sky Island was heavily damaged, but Sunders and Rein Mute arrived in time to stabilize the situation. However, the resurrected evil god was too powerful, and there were too many people affected by the curse. It was impossible to completely remove the curse in a short period of time.
Meanwhile, Mister Monkey, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly returned to Sky Island, the headquarters of the Moonfrost Union.
Following Monchi's return, he joined forces with Rein Mute and finally managed to suppress the Evil God not long ago. Although many people had died this time, at least because of this, it was not to the extent of serious injuries.
"Let's go. They must be planning to rebuild Sky Island," Kanter sighed. Kanter sighed. "We've lost too many apprentices this time. I think we'll have to start the reconstruction plan."
On the way to the central palace, Kanter suddenly thought of something. "By the way, why did Sir Rhine follow you to Sky Island this time?"
Brute Cavern was not like Lilith Clan. Kanter could leave freely because Lilith Clan only had two members: him and Keely. However, a large organization like Brute Cavern would have to worry about many things if its leader left, such as the invasion of enemy organizations or internal strife.
Besides, Brute Cavern was in the middle of a troubled period.
The fusion of the two worlds should have just ended, and Brute Cavern was still in chaos. Why would Rein Mute come to the Abyss Plane at this time?
Sunders shook his head helplessly. He did not expect things to turn out this way. Rein Mute only wanted to "relax" and check on his daughter from afar before returning to Brute Cavern with Angor. However, Angor's condition was still unknown, and something else happened at Sky Island.
He did not need to worry about Rein since he had Section Ephemera to help him sneak away whenever he wanted.
However, Angor's current situation was very troubling for Sunders.
His original plan was to go to Iceberg Valley to look for Angor once he was done here. However, the unforeseen event on Sky Island delayed him for three days.
More importantly, Sunders had been trying to sense the blood essence in Angor's hand all this time, even though the blood essence in Angor's hand was being affected by a powerful force and could not be sensed easily.
Not long ago, Sunders sensed the presence of blood essence for the first time.
He could not tell where the blood essence was, but he sensed that it was very close to him.
That was only relative to the distance between worlds. However, he could sense that the blood essence was no longer in the first level of Abyss Plane. It had returned to the third level of Abyss Plane.
What the hell is going on with Angor's condition? Did he really have the blood essence? If so, why did he return to the third level of Abyss Plane?
Or was Angor brought back to Windwhisper Valley by that powerful being?
Because of these questions, Sunders decided to discuss with Rein.
As for the "plan to rebuild Sky Island" mentioned by Kanter, Sunders was not going to participate in it.
When they arrived at the central hall of Sky Island, they saw that they were not alone. All the surviving wizards of Sky Island had gathered here.
The central hall was now in ruins. The Sorcerers were either resting or fighting. Some were on high ground, while others were on low ground. Although it looked like a mess, none of the Sorcerers present made a sound. The atmosphere was filled with sadness because of the chaos caused by the evil gods.
Sunders and Kanter found a spot to look at the center of the hall.
His Excellency Monchi was standing on the tattered red carpet with a solemn expression. Beside him was Rein Mute, who looked bored to death.
