Sky Island.
It had been four days, and the entire island was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere.
Monkey had been staying in the council hall ever since he returned to Sky Island. It was obvious that the failure of this hunting plan was a huge blow to him.
In the graveyard outside Sky Island, Sunders was standing on top of a cliff, looking at the inverted waterfall in the distance.
He had been standing there for almost two hours. No one knew what he was thinking.
Wizards passing by would give him sympathetic looks when they saw him. After all, Angor's reputation was already at its peak after the incident. But such a potential seed that stood at the heart of the storm had disappeared just like that. Anyone who knew about this matter couldn't help but sigh.
Of course, it was hard to tell whether they felt sorry for Angor or happy about it.
"Angor's only missing. Maybe he's still alive?" Several apprentices whispered to each other. They did not participate in the battle, but the news had already spread all over Sky Island. It would not be long before the southern wizarding region learned about it as well.
"How is that possible? My Element class instructor, 'Zombie Witch', is a good friend of Lady Oliveta. According to Lady Oliveta, not only was Angor kidnapped, but there was also a terrifying demon behind him. How could he have survived under such circumstances? "
The apprentices who did not participate in the plan were all interested in the gossip of the higher-ups. There were even some who described the situation vividly after hearing the rumors. However, most of them had their own interpretations, and were far from the real situation.
"I heard Angor was tagged by the Time Thief. So … even the Time Thief made a mistake this time. A fallen genius is no different from those idiots buried in the graveyard."
"Shh! Keep your voice down! Miss Sennefer is nearby. Haven't you heard about the latest rumor? "
"You mean the rumor about Mister Monkey?"
"Yeah. I heard Mister Monkey couldn't make any progress because of the Time Thief's mistake. That's why he decided to use the bloodline of a demon's descendant to become a legend."
The group of apprentices slowly walked away from the graveyard. Their voices grew softer and softer until they completely disappeared.
When they left, a woman with long hair and fiery eyes suddenly appeared in front of them.
It was Sennefer, the woman they feared so much!
Sennefer had been busy dealing with the aftermath of her plan's failure. She didn't know much about what was going on in the outside world. It wasn't easy for her to find the time to come out.
He didn't expect to hear such a rumor.
Sennefer snapped her fingers. Birds and trees fluttered in the sky. Two shadows quickly landed beside her feet and half-knelt on the ground.
"Go find out who spread the rumors about Sir Monchi."
"Understood." The two men in black robes nodded.
"Also, go arrest those people who started the rumor and lock them in the disciplinary room for half a month. No one is allowed to let them out!"
After Sennefer gave the order, the two shadows disappeared.
She looked up at the graveyard in the distance and slowly walked toward it.
Sennefer walked to Sunders and followed his gaze. She didn't see anything else apart from the magnificent inverted waterfall.
"What are you doing here?" Sennefer asked.
She waited for a long time before she heard the answer.
"I'm waiting for someone," Sunders answered in a cold tone.
"Someone? Who? "
As soon as Sennefer finished her sentence, she saw a hunchbacked old man with a cane slowly walking toward them on a gust of wind.
"Bosch?" Sennefer called out his name.
Of course, Sennefer knew Bosch the Soul Walker. They belonged to different organizations, but they were still part of the same wizard alliance. It was said that Bosch stayed on Sky Island hundreds of years ago to deal with the souls of wizards who died in the Abyss Plane.
Bosch was the one Sunders was waiting for?
"Miss Sennefer, Miss Phantom." Bosch bowed to the two of them.
Sennefer didn't say anything. She only nodded. Sunders bowed to Bosch in return. Bosch was much weaker than him, but Bosch was still a good friend of Rein's, so Sunders respected him a lot.
"How is it? Any clues?" Sunders returned the gesture and went straight to the point.
Bosch didn't answer right away. Instead, he glanced at Sennefer.
Sennefer was wondering what was going on, but when she saw Bosch looking at her, she realized that he was going to kick her out. Sennefer wasn't mad. She didn't want to pry into other people's privacy.
Sennefer considered for a moment. "I'm here to talk to you about some supplies."
Sunders signed a contract with Moonfrost Union when he arrived at the Abyss Plane. His job was to use the gravity garden to smuggle in otherworldly creatures and store some supplies. During the war at Rasudran, most wizards didn't have enough space to store all the demon corpses they collected. Sennefer came here to do that.
"Alright." Sunders took out the demon corpses one by one.
The demon corpses appeared out of nowhere. The strong smell of blood and the resentment lingering on the corpses turned the area around the cemetery into a forbidden zone.
When Sunders stopped, there were more than a thousand demon corpses in the cemetery.
Sennefer was surprised. She waved her hand and summoned a frost rune. The demon corpses were all sucked into the rune.
This frost pattern was the famous Eternal Winter Garden. The garden belonged to Monkey, but Sennefer was now using it to deal with the distribution of supplies.
Sennefer was about to leave when she suddenly stopped and turned around. "Oh, there's something I need to tell you."
"Lucci asked the Wheel of Time about Angor's whereabouts, and the Wheel of Time told him that the prophecy was blocked. So, maybe Angor isn't dead yet."
After the war at Rasudran, they all knew that Angor had an item that could block prophecies. If Angor was dead, then the prophecy wouldn't work. After all, alchemy items needed energy to run.
Of course, there was always the possibility that Angor used magic crystals as the energy source, which could keep the item running for a while even if Angor died. But this was unlikely. Anyone who saw these items, even a demon, would take them away after killing Angor. They would not leave them on a dead body.
"I know Angor won't die so easily," said Sunders. He could sense that the blood he left on Angor's body was still intact. He couldn't tell where Angor was, but there was a good chance that Angor was still alive.
"You seem to have a lot of faith in Angor." Sennefer chuckled and waved a hand. "That's all I need to say. I'll be going now. Oh, by the way, Mister Monkey seems to care about Angor's life. "
With that, Sennefer disappeared into the distance.
"Mister Monkey cares about Angor's life? That's a problem." Bosch's hoarse voice echoed in Sunders' ears.
"Once we know where Angor is, we'll find out where Aurucia and Primal Flame are. Have you found anything yet?"
Bosch nodded.
He took out a small vial from his pocket and handed it to Sunders.
There was a small drop of blood inside, which Sunders collected from Angor's body in the Void Tower. They still couldn't find Angor's location because of the Wheel of Time. But as long as there was blood, they could do a lot of things.
"It's not blood," Bosch said. "The information I got was a bit vague. But the world string told me that Angor is still alive, just like Sennefer said. "
Sunders could tell for sure whether Angor was still alive or not, so he knew Bosch had more to say.
"As for Angor's condition …" Bosch paused for a second. "Maybe he's doing better than you think."
Sunders gave Bosch a puzzled look.
"From what the world string showed me, I saw a strong blood aura. Compared to the blood you gave me, it's at least twice as strong. " Bosley's eyes glinted. "I can't pinpoint his exact location, but the thick scent of blood on him reminds me of Sennefer when she just became a formal wizard."
Sennefer was a Bloodline Wizard, which meant she was born with a strong blood aura.
According to Sunders' estimation, Angor would need to become a truth-finder wizard to reach Sennefer's level. Of course, there were exceptions.
Angor's projected bloodline was one of them.
Sunders' current research on projected bloodlines was still a blind man trying to cross a river. He could only use Angor as an example for his research.
But before this, the projected bloodline only worked as a basic and stable bloodline. Could it be that Angor had absorbed more of his projected bloodline?
As Sunders pondered, he suddenly sensed something in his mind.
At first, he didn't realize what was going on. But when his blood began to boil, he realized what was going on.
He sensed his blood aura!
Currently, Angor was the only one who possessed Sunders' remaining blood.
Now that he sensed the movement of the blood essence, it meant that Angor's location had been revealed!
Sunders couldn't sense the exact location of the blood aura because it was too far away. However, he could sense that the blood aura was at the surface of the Abyss.
To prevent the blood aura from being blocked again, Sunders turned into a shadow and disappeared from Sky Island.
Bosch was left behind. He rubbed his walking stick in confusion.
