"Shopkeeper — ugh." Greywood, who was not far away, saw Angor walking toward Toby and called out in a low voice. But the bird quickly covered its mouth with its hand.
Gregory wasn't sure if the shopkeeper's inner core was still the shopkeeper himself, or if he was already possessed by that powerful being.
If it was that powerful being who noticed him because of his call, Gregory wouldn't even be able to cry if he wanted to.
Of course, Angor heard Gregory's voice, but he didn't care. He already noticed that Gregory and Bobota were looking at his right eye with fear. Angor didn't know what happened to his right eye, so he didn't check it just in case. She even controlled a gust of wind to let her hair fall down and cover her eyes.
Angor quickly walked to Toby's side.
Angor saw Toby lying on the ground on the ground when fighting Lord Flameless, which was why he didn't notice Toby's body at all.
Toby didn't seem to be hurt.
Angor carefully held Toby in his hand. Toby's warm body temperature and slow but steady heartbeat all told him that Toby was doing better than expected.
Angor sighed in relief after making sure Toby was fine.
…
Gregory was intimidated by the consciousness of Abyss, but that didn't stop him from secretly observing Angor.
Looking at Toby who was being held in the palm of the shop owner's hand, doubt flashed through Gregory's mind. With how much the shop owner valued Toby, there was a high possibility that the shop owner was still the shop owner? He wasn't possessed by that powerful being?
Just as Gregory was guessing, he suddenly realized that a familiar green pattern had leaped out from the shop owner's face.
Angor was facing Gregory sideways with his head lowered, and his hair covered his eyes, so Gregory couldn't see where the green mark came from. But judging from its direction, it probably came from Toby's eyes.
This "green pattern" was already familiar to Gregory. If it were to jump out from his eyes, Gregory would immediately think of the powerful existence that had killed Lord Flameless in an instant!
Was Gregory wrong? Was the shopkeeper still possessed by that powerful being?
Gregory wouldn't dare to go to Lady Olucia's soul without knowing the exact owner of the shopkeeper's soul, even though he couldn't move right now.
Gregory was still unable to find any information, so it could only shift its gaze to the familiar green pattern.
Due to the strange nature of the green mark, Gregory couldn't remember what it looked like. However, he felt that he saw something similar on that powerful being before. Was it used for … defense?
Gregory remembered that when Lord Flameless' clone first attacked that powerful being, the blond figure was still inside the shopkeeper's body.
Lord Flameless' attack was blocked by the golden-haired expert using a special green rune. That green rune looked very similar to the one on the shopkeeper's hand.
If it's a defensive green mark, why did the shopkeeper take it out now? Gregory wondered in his heart.
Next, he attached the unique, glowing rune onto Toby's body.
Toby slowly floated up, and the green rune revolved around Toby's body.
Something dawned on Gregory. The shop owner had used the defensive green pattern on Toby because he was worried that Toby would be injured.
Gregory, who thought he was enlightened, couldn't help but think more highly of Toby.
At the mention of Toby, Gregory couldn't help but recall the words of Lord Flameless. From Lord Flameless' explanation, both Gregory and Bobota understood why they encountered so many obstacles along the way, especially when traveling through the void tunnels. Every time they chose a new path, they would run into a different disaster. It turned out that Toby's Curse of Calamity was the cause of it all.
Bobota had personally witnessed the terror of the Curse of Disaster in the Overwatch Bastion. As a creature of the Abyss, Gravu naturally understood the Curse of Disaster very well. According to what Gravu knew, even a demon lord would have a headache when faced with the Curse of Disaster.
When they learned that Toby had Curse of Calamity, they blamed the shopkeeper for it at first.
But now, they didn't feel that way anymore.
If it weren't for Angor, they would have all died here. No one could defeat the demon lord. Lord Flameless would have taken away Olucia's soul as well.
Angor saved them all, and the bird was his most treasured possession, so they didn't dare to blame him. Gregory was even glad that he had saved Toby's life back in the void.
Angor made another move while Gravis was busy thinking about his plan.
…
After making sure Toby was fine, Angor considered for a moment and a green mark appeared in his right eye.
This was a new mark he obtained after fusing with his right eye. Angor didn't know what it meant yet, but from what he could tell, the green mark was called "Forcefield".
Just as Gravu predicted, the "Forcefield" did have a defensive effect in Angor's memory. But there was one more thing he remembered. The green "Forcefield" was used by someone to block Lord Flameless' attack and … curse.
If the "Forcefield" could resist the curse, could it also prevent the curse from spreading?
So, Angor decided to place the "Forcefield" around Toby's body. First, he wanted to see if the "Forcefield" could stop Curse of Calamity from spreading like Freeze. Second, the "Forcefield" would protect Toby.
Angor carefully put Toby into his chest pocket and stood up.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at the other two survivors.
Bobota was still lying on the ground, while Gregory kept glancing around, seemingly thinking about something.
Angor noticed that Gregory was looking at an "Eye of Light" surrounded by a purple-white flame. It was Olucia's soul.
Coincidentally, the headless body of the demon lord's avatar was also near Olucia's soul.
Angor considered for a moment and decided to put the "Eye of Light" away.
He left footprints of varying depths on the ground, which meant he wasn't as calm as he looked.
This was a demon lord's avatar, which meant it was extremely valuable.
Why did Mister Monkey stay in the Abyss Plane for so many years? To get the bloodline of a demon lord, right?
And now, Monkey's greatest treasure was right in front of Angor's eyes. Moreover, the density of the Demonic God's bloodline in this avatar was definitely much higher than Aurelia's!
Even Mister Monkey was eager to get his hands on it. How could Angor not be excited?
Unfortunately, the avatar's head was shattered, so he couldn't get a complete body. But even so, this corpse was still extremely valuable. It was not wrong to say that it was a priceless treasure.
Angor carefully inspected the avatar and used his spirit feelers to circle around it.
Fire!
The avatar's body was like a furnace filled with flames. It was scorching hot. These flames were all powerful flames that Angor couldn't touch. Some of them even contained a special fire seed. Angor's spirit feelers didn't dare to touch them, so he could only stay away from them. But even so, due to the intense heat, his spiritual tentacles were damaged.
Although it had lost both its soul and its head, the avatar was still very active.
He had already made a judgment in his heart. There was some condensed high-level energy in this avatar, but there was no remnant of consciousness. In addition, the outer shell of the Demon God's avatar could seal the internal flames, so it should be safe and could be collected.
With that in mind, Angor took out a purifying amalgamation of Nether Floating Water and sprinkled it evenly on the avatar, which then froze it into an ice coffin.
Next, Angor placed the beautiful, porcelain-white body inside the crystal coffin and stored it inside his bracelet.
While doing this, Angor was wondering what he should do with the avatar.
The avatar's blood, bones, and flesh were all top-tier materials. However, Angor couldn't put them to good use with his current alchemy skills. Apart from that, the avatar also contained a lot of high-energy flames, including some special fire seeds. If Angor could extract them, he could use them as a fire source for alchemy.
As for bloodline purification, Angor wasn't a Bloodline Wizard, so he didn't know how to do it.
As for organ transplants, it could be done as well. However, just like bloodline fusion, such transplants came with risks. Angor could use all kinds of supplementary materials and other methods to reduce the risk. However, transplanting an avatar like this was unheard of in the entire wizarding world, let alone reducing the risk.
It seemed he couldn't use the avatar for the time being.
After putting away the avatar, Angor continued to scan the area.
In the distance, Gregory swallowed his saliva, his eyes filled with apprehension. When the shop owner went to collect the Demon God's Avatar, he had already noticed it. He wasn't greedy for the Demon God's Avatar, and it was impossible for the Demon God's Avatar to belong to him. Gregory didn't find anything wrong with the shop owner collecting it.
However, after the shop owner was done with the Demon God's avatar, would the next one be … Master Olucia's soul?
What would Angor think of Lady Olucia's soul?
Gregory tried to recall the conversation between Olucia and Angor. They only went to the Hallucination Hut once and didn't fight after that. Would Angor just let Lady Olucia's soul go?
Angor moved again. This time, he didn't go for the "Eye of Light". Instead, he went to the other side.
There was another body here.
The owner of this body was none other than Olucia.
