Everyone was still discussing noisily. Due to Meng Qi's mask, not many people noticed his strange behavior.
Only Sunders gave Monkey a disdainful glance.
Sunders seemed to be trying to stay away from the discussion, but he was actually observing the others, especially Mister Monkey.
The others might not know, but as someone who was also marked by the Time Thief, Sunders knew what Monkey was thinking.
In fact, most of the "seeds" marked by the Time Thief had the same standpoint in the beginning when they faced the Time Thief.
Sunders didn't want to be shackled by the Time Thief. In fact, he hated the Time Thief.
At first, Monkey was like this too.
As a prodigy, his goal was naturally lofty. The truth was the other shore that he pursued. How could he be willing to let the Time Thief steal his choice? Even if he didn't want to use it.
But when did Monchi's thoughts start to change?
Was it when he couldn't make any progress even after using all the resources of Moonfrost Union? Was it when he saw a higher world but couldn't reach it? Or could it be that … when he made that choice during one of his training sessions, the Time Thief with a sinister smile showed a satisfied expression to him and never appeared again?
Yes, Monchi had not seen the Time Thief since a certain cultivation session.
During that training session, the Time Thief stole another choice and gave him a lot of compensation, which helped him reach the top of the southern wizarding region. But because of this, he seemed to be unable to advance any further. At the same time, he never saw the Time Thief again. Even though he took the initiative to make many life-changing choices, the Time Thief did not appear again.
He knew that the Time Thief had given up on him.
There were only two reasons why the Time Thief gave up on a "seed". Either the seed didn't want to improve, or the Time Thief stole the "Truth Choice".
Monkey knew that he was the latter.
Since that day, Monkey no longer hated the Time Thief. Instead, he looked forward to meeting the Time Thief again. But it was all for naught.
Later, he decided to sacrifice the bloodline of a demon god to break through to legendary because he hadn't seen the Time Thief for a long time.
When his path was hopeless, he chose to take a different path.
This was why Monkey felt so conflicted when he heard the Time Thief's name.
Sunders could tell what was going on in Monkey's mind, but he didn't really care about Monkey's morbid mind.
Meng Qi had never thought that his choice back then might not have been wrong. The Time Thief no longer appeared. Perhaps it was just leading him to make a mistake.
After all, the Time Thief was a complete bastard.
He said that it was fair to take the choice you gave up, but in fact, he was constantly giving you psychological hints, guiding you to make the choice he wanted.
That was why Sunders was so angry when he heard that Angor was marked by the Time Thief.
However, Sir Monchi seems to be completely obsessed. Even if you tell him that you didn't make the wrong choice and that it was that bastard Time Thief who was wrong, he probably won't listen.
Obsessions and inner demons had always been obstacles on the road to becoming a legend.
Sunders frowned. His eyes were gloomy. When he heard the discussion about the Time Thief getting louder and louder, he finally opened his mouth and said, "The matter of the Time Thief is hard to predict. The more we speculate, the crazier it gets. Besides, is this the time to talk about these irrelevant things? "
Sunders looked up. "Mister Monchi, you mentioned something about a mysterious shop apart from energy disturbance and Abyss Awakening. What do you mean by that?"
Sunders' words successfully diverted everyone's attention.
Indeed, the Time Thief was too far away from them. At most, he could be regarded as a topic of conversation after dinner. What was more important was Lasudran's situation. After all, their lives were tied together with the fate of the entire Moonfrost Union.
"Mysterious Shop? Is it Balalaika from the Land of Repose?" Sennefer muttered in a low voice.
Monchi finally regained his composure and gave Sunders a thoughtful look. He knew what Sunders was trying to say, but it was too late now.
Monchi shook his head. "The Resuscitation Witch's shop isn't that mysterious in the demon world."
"I don't know the details of the mysterious store I'm talking about. It seems to be a store that Rasudelan suddenly opened two days ago. In a short period of time, this store has stirred up a storm and attracted the attention of countless Great Demons."
Monchi's words attracted the attention of the other wizards.
"There's a shop like that in Demon City? Mysterious Shop? That sounds really mysterious. "
"Maybe it's because of some Mystery item?"
"Maybe this shop has something to do with the Abyss Awakening that Mister Monchi mentioned?"
Everyone began to talk about the shop. However, they had no way to find out more about Lasudran's situation.
In the end, everyone's eyes gathered on Meng Qi.
Monchi didn't know much about Lasudran either. His "eye" in Lasudran was Mogheim, the demon he once fought against. To be more precise, it was Mogheim's left eye.
Mogheim was only a mid-tier demon. How could he fight against Monchi for so long? Monchi was just setting up a trap.
Mogheim's left eye was Monchi's hidden chess piece. It would only appear when Mogheim's main body was in hibernation or unconscious. But now, Mogheim didn't seem to be resting at all. He didn't have enough information.
However, it wasn't that there weren't any.
"There's one more thing." Monchi hesitated for a moment. "The mysterious shop mentioned in the rumors is called Psychedelic."
"Psychedelic?" Everyone pondered. They didn't have any clues, but they were still confused.
For some reason, Sunders' heart skipped a beat when he heard the name.
…
On the other side, Angor's heart was racing as well.
He rubbed his eyes and raised his eyebrows again to look at the fiery red figure that was gradually disappearing on the distant street.
"That's right. This feels familiar …" Angor muttered to himself.
He was currently on the roof of Psychedelic Shop. Tall tree branches not far away provided him with some shade and cast mottled shadows on his face.
Fafnir was resting on a branch of a nearby tree.
The reason why he chose this place was actually because he coveted Fafnir's aura. In this wind domain, no Great Fiend's line of sight could pry inside.
While he was thinking, he suddenly saw a red figure moving on the street from the corner of his eyes. It was just a flash, but he sensed a familiar energy wave.
"That must be the chain I made …" Angor was confused. "But didn't I give it to Bobota? Plus, Bobota used Bloodsoul Sacrifice. It shouldn't be in someone else's hands. "
That fiery red figure also looked like a demon, not a human. Was it just his imagination?
Angor rubbed his temples in confusion. Even if it was really Bobota, he shouldn't be in Rasudran right now.
"Maybe it's just my imagination." With this thought in mind, Angor lay down on the roof again and tried to sleep like Fafnir.
About half an hour later, Canaan's voice suddenly reached Angor's ears from the yard.
"Hey, Mister! I found it outside! It's that boar demon! "
He opened his half-opened eyes and looked down in confusion. Canaan was standing at the entrance of the yard, pointing at the thin demon lying on the ground.
Upon closer inspection, it was Moggenheim who had participated in the experience trip in the shop.
"Why is it here?" Angor was confused.
Canaan shook her head. "I don't know what happened. It fell from the sky and landed here. I think it's unconscious. What should we do now, mister? "
Angor frowned. He was about to leave Rasudran, and he didn't want to get involved with a demon here. Especially when Mogheim was a powerful demon who fought against Monkey for a long time.
But he didn't want to leave Mogheim lying on the ground in front of his shop.
Angor considered. "Move it aside. It's not our business as long as it doesn't block the customers' way."
Canaan nodded. Normally, the locals of Rasudran would rob all the unconscious demons and sell them for money. However, they didn't know why this boar demon was unconscious, and it was very strong.
Canaan didn't mind Angor's suggestion.
She created two arms made of water and carried Mogheim to a big tree on the other side of the woods.
Canaan prepared to return. But at this time, the left pupil of the unconscious Moggenheim began to show strange signs.
The black pupil turned into runes.
Canaan didn't go back since there weren't any customers yet. Instead, she observed the runes carefully.
"Gouge out your eye? No way. "Canaan shrugged." Are your left eye and your body two separate consciousnesses? "
The left eye didn't answer Canaan's question. Instead, it created more runes.
This time, the runes didn't ask Canaan to gouge out its eye. Instead, it asked, "What's wrong with your shop? "
"Didn't you already experience it? Oh, right, it wasn't you who experienced it. It was your body that experienced it. " Canaan chuckled. So the left eye was really separate from the boar demon's consciousness. Was it some kind of parasite? Or was it born on its own?
Either way, Canaan found it interesting.
"What does your shop do?" The runes changed again.
"Experience, of course. What do you want to experience? The rhythm of water, the rhythm of the ocean. You only have one eye, so you can't experience it. Why ask so many questions? "
While the runes were still changing, footsteps came from the woods. More customers were coming. Canaan waved a hand. "I'll be going."
