A naked maid wearing only a white apron was standing beside the Spirit Tower.
When they approached, the maid knelt on the ground with her legs closed. Her head was deeply pressed against the ground, revealing her smooth, smooth, and curvaceous back.
"Mister Sunders, Master is waiting for you in the underground lab of the Spirit Tower." The maid wanted to kiss Sunders' boots, but Sunders did not give her the chance. He walked away.
As an old friend of Ness, Sunders was familiar with the Valley of Souls. Since he knew where Ness was, he didn't wait for the maid to lead him to the entrance of the Spirit Tower.
Angor followed behind him.
After entering the tower, he followed the spiral staircase all the way down.
Soon, they arrived at an underground lab. A gray-haired old man was dissecting the body of a male winged man on an experiment table. The soul of the dead winged man was sitting on top of the corpse.
Many souls were busy working in the lab. With the help of the Requiem Stone, they were able to influence the material world and help the old man operate all kinds of instruments.
However, even with the help of the soul, Angor still heard the old man cursing when he stepped into the lab. "That bastard ran away from me halfway! Angor isn't a man-eating tiger! He's a coward! I knew he'd follow in Hookdick's footsteps. "
The gray-haired old man was none other than Ness. It was one of the few times Angor didn't see Ness "enjoying himself" in the Valley of Souls.
Angor didn't know what the old man was cursing about, but the mention of Hookdick made Angor shiver a little.
After all, Angor was the one who killed Hookdick.
When Ness saw Sunders and Sunders, he spoke to the winged man floating above his head, "Keep an eye on your body. Call me if anything happens."
The featherman undead nodded at Ness, then stared at his own corpse without blinking.
Ness let go of Angor and approached him. He didn't greet Sunders first. Instead, he inspected Angor from head to toe and spoke in a surprised tone, "There's something strange about your blood essence. Even I can't compare to it … "
Ness looked at Sunders again, as if he wanted to get an answer from Sunders.
Sunders only nodded slightly. He did not explain, but his nod meant that he acknowledged Angor's strength.
Nice's eyes glittered, and he sounded like he was drooling. "What an excellent body."
The first time he came to the Valley of Souls, Ness used the same tone and almost convinced him to inject himself with a succubus bloodline. Now that he was using such a tone, he might be harboring evil intentions!
The more he looked at Angor, the more he felt that Angor was an excellent subject. If only he could dissect Angor a little … Sunders' tall figure suddenly blocked his view.
Sunders did not say anything, but the cold aura around him showed his attitude.
Ness smiled awkwardly. "I'm just praising you. It's pure praise."
Sunders didn't bother with small talk and went straight to the point. He wanted to know what Ness found when he ventured into the Heart of Insects.
Ness said, "There were some gains. A few manuscripts left behind by Incircote. But as you know, I don't know much about Summoning, and I'm not interested in Zergs. If you have any questions about Zergs, I probably can't answer you. "
"Can I borrow those manuscripts then?"
Ness nodded indifferently. "Sure. Come with me."
With that, Ness took the initiative to lead the two of them deeper into the secret chamber. While walking, Ness mumbled, "Ugh, I was doing an experiment, and Saka was my assistant. But when he knew Angor was coming, he ran away without saying a word. I'm so pissed off. "
"Now that I think about it, Angor was able to defeat Saka back then. Now that he's so much stronger, I bet Saka's going to turn into a pile of minced meat.
"How did you improve your body like that?" Ness looked at Angor curiously. "How did you do that? Did you fuse with some kind of powerful bloodline? "
"It's a bloodline. But I can't tell you what kind of bloodline it is," Angor said.
Ness shrugged. "Fine, just pretend I didn't ask."
Soon, they arrived at the secret chamber Ness talked about. There was a statue of a lion's head in front of the door. Instead of opening the door, Ness knocked on the statue and whispered some secret words into it. The lion's eyes glowed red.
A series of mechanical noises came from inside the secret chamber. Soon, the lion opened its mouth, and a few glowing books flew out and landed in Ness's hands.
Ness waved his hand, and the books landed on a desk not far away.
"Here they are. You can read them yourself." Ness pointed at the books on the desk. "You can read them yourself. The core content is encrypted. If there's anything you want to read, just give it to me at the appropriate price. "
Angor knew how valuable knowledge was to wizards, so he was prepared to pay the price. Ness didn't seem to care about the books at all. However, they were left behind by a legendary wizard. The southern wizardry region probably only had one copy, which meant they were priceless. Ness was only willing to trade them for Sunders' sake.
He nodded to Sunders and sat down in front of the desk. He began reading the first book.
[Introduction of Mysterious Insect]
[Third-order Immolation Reaction of Dropworm Karon]
"Mysterious Insect?" Angor turned to the first page and immediately thought of Lucas. Lucas was the bearer of Mystery items, so he could be considered a "Mystery Human". Then, could this' mysterious demonic insect 'be a type of insect with mystical characteristics?
Angor was curious, but this wasn't what he wanted. He kept reading.
Slowly, the only sound in the room was the sound of pages turning. Angor began to pay more attention to the books.
Ness winked at Sunders, who then left the room. Angor was left alone in the room.
Ness leaned against the door and spoke to Sunders, "I saw what happened in Tree Spirit Palace. There must be more to Angor's story, right? "
"Don't you all know?" Sunders knew that Angor's vague words would arouse suspicion. But it didn't matter. No one would think that Angor had anything to do with the death of the demon god's soul.
"Aren't we old friends? Can't you tell me something?" Ness glanced at Angor. "Did his body change have something to do with it? Did he get the bloodline of a demon god's descendant? "
Sunders chuckled coldly. "Let's leave that aside. Do you really think Angor can withstand a bloodline of that level?"
"You're right. But I can't think of any other answer."
Sunders considered for a moment. "His body change has nothing to do with the demon god's soul. However, you can think about his physique. "
"Constitution?" Ness hesitated for a moment. "You mean … Nightmare Constitution? Is it related to the Nightmare Realm? "
Sunders didn't say anything else. Ness, on the other hand, suddenly realized something. It would make sense if Angor's condition was related to the Nightmare Realm. After all, the Nightmare Realm was known to be a dangerous place. But so were its treasures!
Ness wanted to ask more, but Sunders didn't want to talk about it. Ness had no choice but to take a break.
Next, Ness talked about Rasudran, which Angor told him about. Sunders told him some secrets, but none of them mattered.
As they chatted, the topic somehow turned to the ruins on the Parmigi Highlands.
"What do you think of the new ruin?" asked Sunders.
Ness considered. "Mister Rein summoned me to the ruin not long ago. He wanted me to sense some undead creatures. I didn't find any, but I felt something strange about the ruin."
"Strange? What do you mean? " Sunders was curious. All the information he received was verified. In other words, it was "official news". It was authoritative, but it lacked perspective. He wanted to hear if Nessie would discover anything new by looking at it from his own point of view.
"None of us could enter the ruin, so I can't tell what's going on inside. But I don't understand why so many rainbow dragonflies from the Evernight Kingdom gathered around the ruin, "Ness recalled. Nessie recalled the situation back then. "There were rumors that the monsters and parasites would get closer to the Parmigi Highlands and cause a disaster for the Mirror World. But I can't rule out the possibility that they're going deeper into the highlands. But I don't think they're planning to expand. "Sunders frowned.
"They're not planning to expand? You mean — "
"I think there's something special in the ruin that's attracting them."
Something that could attract nightmare creatures? If so, it had to be the nightmare aura. After all, these monsters would become weaker if they didn't replenish their nightmare aura in time. However, the Evernight Kingdom had plenty of interlayer spaces, so there was no shortage of nightmare aura.
What could it be?
Could it be that there was a passage to the Nightmare Realm in the ruins, just like Pocratee?
But that didn't seem right. If there was such a passage, the nightmare creatures wouldn't have come from the Evernight Kingdom. They could've just come out from the passage.
Sunders couldn't figure it out.
"Mister Rein has sent a letter to Lupanye. If Lupanye can give us an answer, Mister Rein may enter the ruin himself. We'll know the answer then."
