"I'm not sure. Maybe he already noticed something unusual about you." Fafnir looked at Angor in the eyes. "For example, you seem to be paying attention to the man who used illusions."
Angor remained silent.
He once read a detective novel written by a mortal. When a detective with great insight wanted to analyze another person, he or she would use every suspicious action, strange behavior, and even trivial details to describe the person.
Angor had never met Monkey before. But judging from the attitude of the people around him, as well as the aura of the masked man, Angor could tell that this man was Monkey.
A wizard who stood at the top of the southern wizarding region must have better insight than mortal detectives.
Perhaps, Monchi had been allowing Fafner's wind to spy on them. In fact, he wanted to use this opportunity to observe who the existence behind this wind was, as well as what its purpose was.
Angor understood Fafnir's intention. However, Angor pretended to be innocent. "Did I do something wrong? Mister Fafnir, you're the one who controlled the wind. I can't control it. "
"You can't control the wind, but you can control your eyes." Fafner stopped there and didn't put too much ink on Monchi. He changed the topic, "You used illusions, and that man also used illusions. It seems you know him?"
Both Fafnir and Canaan saw Angor's reaction. Angor knew he couldn't deny it.
But then again, he didn't really need to hide it.
When Angor looked at Canaan, who was standing on the other side of the illusion, Canaan quickly realized what was going on and began to hum along with the strange music coming from the illusion.
"That's a nice song." Canaan closed her eyes as if she was enjoying the music.
It seemed Canaan couldn't hear their conversation.
Angor chuckled in his mind. It was not that he did not want to expose the truth. However, he and Canaan were not on the same side. Angor believed that it was better to maintain a more appropriate relationship with Canaan. For example, Canaan did not know that he was a human. Canaan was just an employee hired by Angor.
Angor looked up at Fafnir. "Yes, I know him. He was the mentor who led me on the path of becoming a Sorcerer. My illusions were also taught to me by him. "
Fafnir didn't react at all. Canaan, on the other hand, almost choked on his own saliva. When Angor looked back, he saw Canaan closing his eyes and pretending to listen to music again. However, Angor could tell from the twitching of his eyeballs that he wasn't as calm as he looked.
He expected Fafnir to ask more questions, such as about Sunders, his illusions, Monkey's information, or the human's plan … but Fafnir didn't ask anything.
Instead, he said indifferently, "I see. It seems like the person who called you from outer space wasn't your teacher. "
It took him a while to realize that Fafnir was referring to their first encounter at Windwhisper Valley.
Something unexpected happened. Under Fafnir's terrifying aura, Angor felt like he was about to collapse. At the same time, strange vines grew out of his back, and someone whispered in his ear, "Are you calling me?"
Angor kept denying it until the whisper slowly disappeared.
Later, when he began to retract the vines on his back, he realized that the vines seemed to be some sort of spatial locator. If he accepted the call, the person who whispered in his ear would probably travel across countless worlds to reach him.
Fafnir didn't ask about the identity of the person from outer space, but he did try to hint Angor several times. Angor's answer was always vague. After that, Fafnir stopped asking.
Angor had a hunch that it was Shava.
He couldn't tell Fafnir that it wasn't his teacher who called him, but his projection in the Nightmare Realm.
It was only Sunders' guess, but Angor was still doubtful about the projection.
Fafnir stared at Angor, waiting to see how Angor would react when he mentioned the person who scared him so much that he wanted to kneel down. However, Angor only smiled as if he did not hear anything.
"Your acting skills are worse than Canaan's. Maybe you should learn from Puppeteer." Fafnir pointed at Mu Ying in the illusion.
Angor didn't say anything. He simply used the illusion to show what was happening in the sky.
For example, he added a close-up of Mu Ying's sweaty forehead.
"Looks like he won't last long." Canaan noticed that Fafnir and Fafnir were no longer talking about something she couldn't participate in. "When he can't hold on anymore, the Minotaur and the others should be able to escape, right?"
Canaan clearly remembered what Fafnir said earlier. The Minotaur and Buffett might be in bad shape right now, with broken bones, blindness, and damaged organs, but they didn't lose much of their core strength. Once they escaped, they would recover in no time.
"Not necessarily. If someone can keep them on the stage for a long time, they won't just dance to the background music. There must be something else."
Fafnir had his reasons. When Mu Ying suddenly dragged Odesinos onto the stage as a new "actor", it was completely out of Fafnir's expectation.
The two demons were still using strange and treacherous means to pretend to be weak, but no one could say for sure that the humans would really believe their act.
Angor's eyes lit up. "So you're saying the humans have a good chance of winning, sir?"
"What do you think?" Fafnir asked coldly.
Angor shook his head. As an apprentice, he couldn't even estimate the power of a wizard, let alone someone who was close to legendary.
"So you still don't see the weakness of you humans," Fafnir spoke in a cold tone.
Canaan quickly covered her ears. She couldn't hear "humans" at all.
"Did you selectively ignore the conflict between that man and your teacher?"
Conflict? Angor quickly realized that Fafnir was referring to the conflict between Sunders and Nereus, which led to internal strife in the human camp.
Thanks to the wind, Angor clearly saw the undercurrent on the floating ice. Not only was there a conflict between Sunders and Nereus, but there was also another group of people who wanted to get rid of Sunders as well.
It was a group of wizards in green robes with skin as dry as tree bark.
Angor recalled their attire and felt that they looked familiar. Were they from Gravity Forest?
Angor heard that Sunders built the Sorcerer's Garden on his own, but the main material of the garden — Fragment of Eternity — was stolen from someone from Gravity Forest. This was why Gravity Forest had been holding a grudge against Sunders for a long time.
Although the human camp seemed to be united, there were still many conflicts going on inside. Sunders wasn't the only one. There might be other people who had conflicts as well.
Angor also didn't forget about Bobota. He probably came to Rasudran under the name "Floral Sparrow" for a reason. Maybe the mastermind behind all this was also on the floating ice.
Fafnir's meaning was clear. Why do you think the human camp is going to win if there's still internal strife?
Although the demons weren't completely united, they were still in the same boat.
Fafna said indifferently, "Now, in the struggle between the two worms, who wins and who loses will depend on who can last longer and who has more trump cards."
Fafnir was only talking about the conflict between the demons and the humans. The fight between Nightclub Owner and Orucia was something else.
Angor believed that the humans would win. Speaking of trump cards, he also believed that the humans had the upper hand. At least, so far, the humans hadn't used any strategic weapons or Mystery items yet.
Angor knew that Sunders had at least one Mystery item, which was the Cursing Puppet.
Angor believed that other truth-finder wizards had similar items in their possession as well. Mystery items had their own effects, and they might not be useful in this situation. However, it was this kind of mystery that made the outcome of this battle even more unpredictable.
The situation on the battlefield had obviously changed.
Mu Yin forced himself to show off in front of the humans and dragged Odesinos into a strange puppet show, which greatly boosted the confidence of the humans. However, new dangers, as well as the consequences of acting tough by force, came one after another.
After Odesinos fell, Iyadese, one of the seven demon leaders of the Void Tower, showed up outside the floating ice. Iyadese wouldn't allow himself to be dragged into the puppet show again.
Since Iyadese was a threat, Monkey sent Nereus to fight against him.
So far, Nereus and Iyadese were still evenly matched. They should be able to hold on for a while longer.
On the other hand, Mu Yin couldn't hold on much longer.
After all, he was not Kundera. With his ability, controlling two Great Demons was already his limit. He planned to join the humans in the seventh chapter of the puppet show and help them eliminate the demons. However, he made a mistake and brought Odesinos into the stage first. Now that he had to control three demons, he didn't have the energy to send in a human supporting character.
Since the supporting characters couldn't join the stage, Mu Yin could only control the demons by himself. However, he couldn't do anything to them.
He was stuck in an endless loop. His mana pool was almost empty, but the demons would only suffer some superficial wounds at most. The more he controlled them, the more they would retaliate, and the more they hated Mu Yin.
Mu Yin believed that if he couldn't hold on any longer, the three demons who escaped from the puppet show would come for him first. As a matter of fact, he couldn't hold on much longer.
He had no choice but to ask Monkey for help.
