Angor looked up at the sky to check what was going on.
Nitotep used the rain clouds to cover the space, temporarily protecting the two blood cocoons. The wizards tried to break through the rain clouds, but the results were minimal. Nitotep's fighting power in the rain clouds was terrifying.
Both sides were in a stalemate. Obviously, Nitotep was trying to buy time so that the demon could break out of its cocoon as soon as possible. Also, she was waiting for Space Rend to be activated.
"Now's the best time to break out of the encirclement and send a message," Angor muttered to himself.
Time waits for no man. Since Fafnir's plan wasn't working, Angor had no choice but to rely on speed. He considered for a moment and made up his mind.
There was one more thing he needed to do before he left.
Of course, he couldn't take Toby with him, so he had to find someone to watch over Toby while he was away. Angor glanced at Fafnir, then slowly looked at Canaan … and then back at Fafnir.
Canaan was a demon, so Angor couldn't fully trust her. Fafnir wasn't completely trustworthy either, but he didn't think Fafnir would refuse Toby's request.
"Mister Fafnir, may I ask — Huh?" Angor asked again.
Before he could finish his sentence, he sensed a strange aura coming from outside. It seemed someone was approaching.
Canaan also frowned and looked outside through the barrier of her wind domain. "Mister, there are shadows outside."
Angor reached his spirit feelers out of the wind barrier and saw what Canaan was talking about.
It wasn't just one shadow. Under the fiery light of the sky, Angor saw more shadows moving in the white smoke rising from the scorched earth. The distorted light caused the shadows to lengthen and shorten from time to time.
They looked like the evil spirits hiding in the smoke in horror fairy tales.
The shadow in the white smoke looked terrifying, but somehow, he felt that it looked familiar. Puzzled, Angor reached his spirit feelers into the smoke to see what was going on inside.
With this exploration, he discovered a strange thing. These shadows seemed to be flat and did not have any three-dimensional feeling.
He wondered if he should use his spirit feelers to check the shadow's condition.
However, before he could find out, he felt a pair of eyes staring at him. To be more precise, the eyes were staring at his spiritual tentacles. The source of the line of sight didn't seem to be the surrounding scorched earth, but somewhere far away.
On the ruins hundreds of meters away, Samantha quietly stared at the psychic tentacle that had suddenly appeared with a strange and suspicious look in her eyes.
"Is it him?" Samantha asked softly.
"It doesn't look like it," Kanter replied. "It's wrapped in a layer of strange wind element. I can't see through it."
Generally speaking, one could judge the strength of the owner from the tenacity of the spirit tentacle. This spirit tentacle was very strange. Kanter used Shadow of Night to examine it, but he couldn't find anything. He could only feel wind elements attached to the spirit tentacle.
"Can you find out where he came from?"
"The source is deeper." Kanter put on a serious look. "There's an extremely dangerous area that I can't get close to. I lost one of my shadows when I tried."
Kanter paused for a moment. "However, that area is the location of the mysterious store that I found in the Void Realm. That's where I saw Angor. "
"You're saying Angor should be in the danger zone?" Samantha asked.
Kanter nodded.
Samantha considered for a moment. "So … the spirit tentacle came from Angor?"
Kanter couldn't tell for sure. No one could tell for sure whether it was a trap or not in a dangerous city like Demon City. Earlier, when they arrived at the city, they saw some precious materials hidden in the ruins, which triggered an explosion as soon as they set foot inside. Not only that, but the loud explosion also attracted the attention of nearby hiding demons.
Luckily, the two of them were able to deal with all the demons in no time.
"Use Isolation Spell and try to touch it," Samantha said.
Isolation Spell referred to the method of cutting off one's spirit power. By cutting off a part of one's spirit power and connecting it with an attachment thread, one would gain temporary control of the spirit power. It was usually used for exploring dangerous ruins. In case of an accident, it could quickly cut off the source of the spirit power and prevent it from being contaminated.
"We can try. Let me do it. If it's Angor, I'll do it." With that, Kanter cut off a small part of his spirit power. For wizards at their level, losing spirit power like this would only cause them pain, and they would recover after some rest.
Angor was hesitating whether he should touch the shadow or not. Somehow, he felt that the shadow looked familiar when it was in its normal form.
Just as he was hesitating, a psychic tentacle suddenly appeared nearby and emitted a familiar psychic wave.
The ripple didn't have any meaning. Even a demon wouldn't be able to understand it. However, Angor knew that the tentacle was trying to confirm his identity and whether he was friendly or not.
Angor was glad to know that the spirit ripple was coming from a human wizard. As long as he could confirm this, he wouldn't have to risk breaking through the demon's defense line.
With that in mind, Angor quickly responded by sending out a spirit pulse.
Kanter sensed the spirit ripple and frowned.
"How is it?" Samantha asked.
Kanter nodded. "It's him. Yes, it's Angor."
Samantha relaxed a little after hearing Kanter's words. However, she was still confused. Just like all the other wizards who heard Angor's name on the floating ice, she wondered why Angor came here.
Samantha didn't think too much about it. Since she already knew it was Angor, she could just ask him directly. With that in mind, Samantha and Kanter exchanged a glance and moved at the same time. Like two arrows leaving the bowstring, they flew through the air and quickly arrived at the scorched earth.
Earlier, Samantha didn't know what Kanter meant when he said that this was a dangerous area. Now that she was here, she finally felt the pressure and danger.
Samantha could sense where the source of the danger was, but she didn't dare to go any deeper. She could feel that once she crossed a certain line, the dangers that were just lying in wait would turn into real sharp blades.
"Here it is." Samantha stopped and fixed her eyes on the ethereal tentacle of psychic power in the white smoke.
Angor also noticed the newcomer in the smoke.
The first one he saw was Samantha. Her figure was swaying, and her black hair fell on her twin peaks. She wore a crystal blue dress that looked like glass, which made her seem both cold and charming.
Angor once saw her at Overwatch Base, and Sunders also told him something about Samantha. She had something to do with Brute Cavern. However, Angor's impression of Samantha was the phrase Sunders used to describe her from time to time: "a broken piece of glass."
At first, he thought Sunders was referring to Samantha's lip gloss. Her lips were blue, and they looked like broken glass. Then, he heard the second part of Sunders' sentence, "a broken piece of glass can never be put back together."
Sunders didn't seem to be referring to Samantha's lip gloss. Angor thought about how Samantha grew up in Brute Cavern, which meant she was from the same generation as Sunders. Perhaps there was something else going on.
Angor was thrilled to see Samantha again.
Samantha was one of the leaders of Moonfrost Union, so he didn't have to go all the way here just to tell her about the plan.
The shadows around him suddenly disappeared, and Angor saw Kanter.
Angor was excited to see Samantha, but he didn't know her personally. He only heard that Samantha treated the people of Brute Cavern very harshly, which was why he was a little nervous. But now, after seeing Kante, that trace of nervousness completely disappeared.
No wonder he didn't see Kanter on the floating ice. He was sent to the surface as well. "But why is Mister Kanter here? Is he here for Olucia too?"
Angor already told Sennefer about the current situation in Hunter's Den. He didn't expect Sennefer to send someone here. It seemed that Sir Monchi's obsession was very deep.
Still, at least they saved him the trouble of going through the trials himself, which was a good thing.
"Angor?" Kanter's familiar spirit ripple spread out from his body.
"It's me, Mister Kanter," Angor quickly replied.
"Tell me, Angor. Where are you now? Are you sure the information you sent me is true? How did you find out about it? What else do you know? "A string of questions came out of Samantha's mouth.
Kanter glanced at Samantha and shook his head. Samantha's attitude was perfectly normal in other places. After all, she was a level-2 truth-finder wizard, and she was only asking questions to a common apprentice.
But in this place, at this time, it was a little too ignorant.
Angor's information was extremely important, and this was the territory of a powerful being. She had to lower her head and lower her head. Unless that peerless expert had already decided to start a war with the humans, otherwise, such a question could easily cause the opposite effect.
Kanter didn't wait for Samantha to finish. "How are you doing, Angor?"
