So far, Roland was only a character mentioned by "Gold". Angor did not know whether the name was real or not.
Regardless of whether Roland was the real owner of the Crimson Crown, the fresh blood on the parchment would definitely help them find the owner of the crown.
Fresh blood was completely different from the information he obtained from the Crimson Crown.
He could even use the blood to cast a curse on the owner of the blood and use the curse power to find the person hiding in the crown.
Therefore, the parchment in the suitcase could definitely be considered as a key clue!
Thewis couldn't wait to get to the box, and his body flashed with energy. His handsome face suddenly rippled, and his tall nose underwent a qualitative change.
In a second, Thewis' nose turned into … a pig's nose.
Two black, vertical nostrils appeared on his nose, and his slightly wet, pink skin. Just like that, on his handsome face, at first glance, it didn't seem out of place. Instead, it gave off a rather cute feeling.
"Pig's Nose." It was an organ modification spell that enhanced one's sense of smell. Similar to Polymorph, it could be acquired through self-cultivation or by transplanting one's nose.
Judging from the energy ripples on Thewis' body, Angor could tell that he never transplanted a pig's nose.
Self-cultivation was slow, but not by much. At least, it was faster than learning Polymorph. This was why most wizards who did not want to work on their noses would choose to do it on their own.
Thewis used his Pig's Nose to smell the blood on the parchment. After confirming the smell, he took a deep breath above his head.
It was like a whale swallowing the sea.
A gust of wind came, and the windows in the hall began to crack. In an instant, all the windows were blown open. Countless gusts of wind rushed into the hall, causing everyone's clothes and hair to flutter.
Several minutes later, the wind finally stopped. Thewis used Pig's Nose to absorb the remaining two wisps of white mist into his body.
A moment later, Thewis opened his bright eyes. "I found his scent. He's still in the Old Earth!"
After Thewis finished speaking, his legs seemed to have turned into smoke. He was so excited that he wanted to rush out of the window to find the source of the smell.
However, just as Thewis was about to fly out of the hall, the surrounding windows were all shut, and a tall figure blocked his path.
It was Sunders.
"It's good that we found him, but he still has Goman King behind him. Aren't you afraid that the other party might have some tricks up their sleeves? You'll also get your apprentice and everyone in Padt Manor into trouble. "
No one in the southern region dared to talk about the Goman Secret Treasure because they did not want to offend the cruel and eccentric Goman King.
This was why Sunders repeatedly warned him not to get involved in Goman's treasure.
"We've already found the source of this disaster. As long as we can capture him, everything will be over!" Thewis' eyes were slightly bloodshot as he spoke in an excited manner.
"I've never stopped you from going. But if you're going to capture someone, you better come up with a proper plan."
What Sunders meant was simple. Thewis had to consider all possibilities before doing something. Goman King must have something to rely on if he dared to let Thewis go out alone.
First of all, if Thewis had Goman King's blood essence, Goman King would be able to sense Thewis' presence. What if Goman King traveled through time and space?
What if Thewis and Crimson Crown were in a state of mutual benefit, which would trigger Thewis and cause Crimson Crown to go out of control?
Also, could Thewis be sure that Thewis was alone? Would there be any traps in Goman King's location?
Thewis had to consider all possibilities and come up with the best solution to achieve victory in one move.
All of the above seemed difficult to solve, but as long as Thewis was prepared in advance, it would not be hard to solve them.
For example, what if Goman King traveled through time and space? First, he could prevent all information from leaking out. Second, he could seal time and space.
As long as Thewis considered all possibilities, he would have a much higher chance of success.
Thewis fell into deep thought after hearing Sunders' words. Acting on impulse might not bring him the best result. Since Eureka was involved, he had to be careful. "I understand."
Thewis sat back down in the hall and pondered for a moment, running through all the possibilities in his mind. However, it would take him a long time to do everything alone, and time waits for no man. Maybe Roland already sensed Thewis opening the suitcase.
Thewis looked at Sunders and spoke in a low voice, "I hope you can help me, Mister Phantom."
Sunders wasn't surprised at all. "It involves Goman King and Goman's treasure. You should know how dangerous and difficult it is."
Thewis nodded.
"Then you should know that my help will come at a high price."
Sunders paused and moved his lips, but his voice did not reach the hall. Instead, it reached Thewis' ears.
It seemed Thewis was having a hard time accepting Sunders' request. Thewis hesitated for a while before he finally made up his mind. His reply was also transmitted to Sunders through a special channel.
Other than themselves, no one else knew what they talked about. Angor did not know either. He asked Sunders about it, but Sunders did not answer him. "The less you know about Goman King, the better."
Judging from the results, they had indeed reached an agreement.
In the following days, Sunders helped Thewis formulate and perfect the capture plan.
Angor did not participate in the rest of the plan. He was not strong enough, and there was no need for him to capture someone whose location was already known.
Angor finally relaxed. He believed that with Sunders' help, the outcome would not be too bad.
He returned to his room and decided to focus on his training since he no longer had to worry about Roland.
Door model, knowledge accumulation, illusion training, Soft Worm breeding, and so on … all of them occupied his attention. During his breaks, he would also go to his brother Leon's place to guide him in his new meditation technique.
On the third day since the hall was sealed, Sunders and Thewis finally came out.
They did not go to Roland immediately. Instead, they went to Angor's room.
"Geometric Lock?" Angor looked at Thewis, who was standing by the door.
Thewis wanted to borrow Angor's Geometric Lock.
"Sealing time and space to prevent Goman King from coming here is easy as long as you plan ahead. However, I don't have a good way to prevent information from leaking out, especially when the Mystery energy will leak out. So, I have to borrow your Geometric Lock, "Thewis explained.
The Geometric Lock was engraved with a magic array consisting of five runes — Silent Confinement.
Silent Confinement was a magic array that combined defense, concealment, shielding, and aura concealment. After using it, it could almost prevent all information from escaping. It was a kind of "lock" concept.
Angor used the Geometric Lock to lock himself when he was controlling the Dream Whelk to prevent Mystery energy from leaking out. However, the Geometric Lock could also be used to imprison others.
If Thewis wanted to use the Geometric Lock to imprison Roland and prevent him from leaking information, it was indeed possible.
Angor considered for a moment and nodded. By helping Thewis, he was also helping himself. As long as Thewis could capture the owner of the Crimson Crown, he would be able to remove the special energy inside his servants and send them to the dream wasteland.
After lending the Geometric Lock to Thewis, Sunders and Thewis left Padt Manor.
After they left, the manor finally enjoyed a peaceful night.
…
Light snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
Angor sat on a cloud in the sky and looked at the dark manor. In the past, at this time, the lights in the manor would be on. But now, the manor was quiet. Only a few rooms in the manor were still lit.
Compared to the scattered lights of Grue Town in the distance, this place was completely different.
"Angor!" A voice came from the side. He turned around and saw that it was the white bear and Leon who had come to Cloud Earth. The one who spoke was Leon.
Lyon wasn't wearing any armor. Instead, he wore a thin robe. "Eureka's gone. We don't have to be so tense at night, so let's take off our armor."
Angor was surprised. He could not imagine how Leon spent his nights these days. Was he scared? Or was he anxious? Even though he knew the armor couldn't protect him from Eureka's attacks, he still chose to put it on.
"You don't mind the weight of such a thick armor." "I'm free now. I'll make you a new one later." Angor tried to hide the complicated look in his eyes.
"Can I choose the style?" Leon's eyes lit up.
"No." Without a doubt, if Lyon had to choose the style, he would definitely choose the bulky Iron Scale Armor.
Leon groaned in pain.
White Bear gave Leon an envious look. He knew that the other wizards in Brute Cavern had been begging Leon to do alchemy for them. Some even sent wizards from other organizations to ask Leon for help, but they were all rejected. But now, Angor was offering to do alchemy for Leon. Comparisons were odious.
White Bear thought to himself that he should try to build a good relationship with Leon. Maybe he could get something from Leon.
In White Bear's opinion, Leon was easier to deal with than Angor.
After a round of laughter, their gazes involuntarily looked down at the pitch-black manor below.
Angor sighed. "Looks like the Flame of Lionheart will be extinguished one day."
Leon shook his head. There was no sorrow in his eyes. Instead, there was hope. "The fire in the lion's heart will never be extinguished. As Old Pat once said, as long as there is still a member of the House of Pat, the flame of the Lion's Heart will never be extinguished. "
You and I are both here now. "
