On the second day after Angor left Konya, Silverstar's soul was still inside the warehouse. Suddenly, she sensed that something was wrong with her body in the underground river.
Puzzled, Silverstar returned to the underground lab and saw that Kim's soundproof room was still locked, which meant he was still training.
Silverstar went straight to the pool in the lab.
Her soul continued to fall into the depths of the pool. Because the bottom of the pool was connected to the underground river, she temporarily placed her true body here.
When she reached the bottom of the pool, the first thing she saw was countless vertical pupils shining with a cold golden light. These were the eyes of snakes, and they were all growing on her head.
While other people would find the snake hair terrifying, it was the closest thing to Silverstar.
Silverstar caressed her snake hair before turning her gaze to the source of the anomaly she sensed this time. It was a bubble floating from the underground river. It glowed with energy and illuminated the dark water channel with a myriad of colors.
Silverstar reached out a hand and flicked the bubble. The water bubble floated and shone even brighter. At the same time, a voice reached Silverstar's ears.
"Why is Kim in seclusion, Silverstar?" It was a woman's voice, which sounded distant and cold.
When Yin Xing heard this familiar voice, the image of a petite woman immediately appeared in his mind.
"Whitey? Didn't I tell you before that Master Jin has gained enlightenment? "Not long after Yin Xing spoke, the bubble began to vibrate again.
"I have something important to ask Kim. Summon him here," Whitey spoke again in a commanding tone.
Whitey was also Jebra's subordinate, and Jebra trusted her more than Kim. Although Bai Jin and Jebra weren't close to each other, Jebra and Bai Jin were on the same level in terms of status.
Now, Whitey was speaking in a commanding tone, which was strange because it didn't fit her position.
Silver Star assumed that this was Jebra's idea and not Bai's.
She knew that Jebra Rangbai was the one who told her that, but she still didn't agree to it.
"No," Silverstar refused without hesitation.
Whitey's cold voice came again. "Why? You need to give me a reason. "
"It's rare for Mister Kim to be enlightened, and he's been in seclusion for almost a month. This was the longest period of seclusion Lord Jin had been in in the past ten years. I have a feeling that perhaps Master Jin is planning to use this opportunity to break through the final barrier in one fell swoop, "Yin Xing said." I definitely won't disturb Master Jin at such an important moment. "
Hearing Silver Star's answer, Bai fell silent.
Jin's current strength was that of a peak-level apprentice. If he really wanted to break through the final barrier, it meant that he was planning to become an official Magus.
For any apprentice, this was the most important moment of their life.
The opportunity to gain enlightenment was hard to come by, and the opportunity to break through a barrier was even harder to come by. Some people might only have this opportunity once in their entire lives.
In a sea region countless miles away from the Old Earth. There was a huge narwhal swimming at the bottom of the sea. There was an air shield on the back of the whale, and Bai was talking to Silver Star inside the air shield.
After hearing Yin Xing's explanation, Bai hesitated. If what Yin Xing said was true, it would be inappropriate to wake Kim up now. She turned around and looked at the other person beside her. At this moment, the man beside her was calmly flipping through a magazine.
"What should we do now, Mister Jebra?" Bai asked.
"This is indeed a critical moment for Jin." Jebra's eyes were still on the magazine. "Forget about Jin then. Ask Silver Star. Silver Star and Gold have always been inseparable. Silver Star should know what Gold has done and … who he has met. "
"Alright." Bai nodded.
Yin Xing waited for a long time without receiving any response. She thought Bai wouldn't contact her again. However, when she was about to return to the warehouse on the surface, Bai's voice came from the air bubble again.
"Alright, you don't have to disturb Jin. But I have a question for you, and you must answer me honestly. "
This time, Bai's tone was unusually solemn.
"Did you see Angor at the Old Earth? Especially in the last month. "
Silver Star frowned at Bai's question. He didn't know why Bai was asking about Angor. Besides, Bai's tone was serious like never before.
Ever since Silver Star came to the Old Earth with Jin, she had learned that Jin hated humans as well as Bai. Unless it was absolutely necessary, Silver Star would always contact Bai. After so many contacts, this was the first time Yin Xing had heard Haku ask in such a tone.
It seemed Angor's whereabouts were very important to Bai or Jebra.
Yin Xing pondered for a moment, wondering if he should tell them the truth.
Before going into seclusion, Jin told Yin Xing to tell Bai that she didn't know where Angor was.
Of course, Yin Xing was sure that Jebra was the one asking the questions.
Yin Xing had to make a choice between Jin's order and Jebra's question.
"I've never seen him before," Silver Star said slowly.
Bai didn't reply to Yin Xing's question. However, the air bubble cracked, which meant the conversation was interrupted.
Bai looked at Jebra. "Sir, Yin Xing hesitated for a long time. There must be something going on."
"She must have seen him before," Jebra said. "And it's probably just recently."
Bai agreed. "Could it be that Jin asked her to keep this a secret? But Jin doesn't need to do that. "
"Silver Star has always been friendly to humans. Maybe Angor asked her not to tell anyone about him?" Bai Jingdu asked.
"But how did Angor get involved with Silver Star for no reason at all?" Jebra asked. Jin must have played a role in this. "
"Should we tell them about Angor's whereabouts?" Bai asked.
Jebra considered for a moment and shook his head. "Forget it. There's no need to offend him. But I do want to meet him. "
"But the Rising Star Competition …" Bai frowned.
Jebra cut her off. "There was some conflict between us last time at Saint Sem City. This is a good opportunity. I won't go there myself. I'll just send a water avatar to express my opinion. "
Haku didn't say anything else after hearing Jebra's explanation.
Bai didn't like Angor personally, but she had to admit that Angor was someone with great potential. Besides, Angor's appearance in Firefly's Night Whispers made him even more important.
It was better to maintain a good relationship with someone like Angor than to become an enemy.
…
Angor didn't know what happened after he left Conya.
He was now far away from the Old Earth and on the vast ocean.
Last night, he went to the dream wasteland and told Leon about his brief absence. Because of the dream wasteland, Leon could meet up with Angor whenever he wanted, so he didn't feel like parting with Angor.
"Ugh … Another failure." Bobota, who was sitting in front of Angor, looked at the insect nest in his hand and sighed.
Angor brought Bobota with him this time. Now that the Abyss Plane was getting out of hand, the Moonfrost Union would definitely pay more attention to Bobota's whereabouts. Since the Crimson Veil had a limited range, Angor had to bring Bobota along to protect him from being detected by a Prophecy spell.
Bobota didn't talk much since they boarded Gondola. He was fully focused on the insect nest in his hand.
He didn't expect Bobota to be so interested in the Soft Larva Nest. Moreover, Bobota was obsessed with helping the Larva Queen hatch new eggs.
As Bobota said, "Every time a new insect is born, it's an unknown entity. Therefore, every result will give you a sense of freshness. "
Every time a new insect appeared, it was like a lottery. No one could tell whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. Angor couldn't help but be curious about the outcome.
Thanks to "Heart of Bugs" Insecott's notes, Angor was able to help the mother insect lay eggs much faster than before. This was the second insect Bobota saw after taking over the nest.
The first mutant worm egg was the "Hardened Worm" that had appeared before.
"So, what did you find this time?" Angor asked.
"Poison." Bobota didn't seem disappointed. Instead, he looked quite happy. "It's a kind of soft insect that can spit out venom. I'm calling it Venom Soft Insect for now."
"The venom can quickly melt arthropods, but it can't do much damage to humans," Bobota explained.
"So this time, the mother insect is targeting the Dream Weaver Ant," Angor said. After the last Phantom Soft Insect, the mother insect's eggs were getting stronger and stronger, and all of them were targeted at the Dream Weaver Ant.
The Dream Weaver Ant was an arthropod.
Angor considered for a moment. "Next time, let's add some other insects to the mix."
He couldn't let the mother insect see the Dream Weaver Ant as its only enemy. If the mother insect kept targeting the Dream Weaver Ant, who knew when it would hatch a real Soft Insect?
Bobota nodded. He took out a yellowed notebook and began to write down the next plan.
When Bobota finished recording, he finally had the time to look away from the Soft Worm.
"Where are you going now, Angor?"
"I'm going to find a secluded place to test a new cantrip."
"What kind of cantrip is that? Did you do it on your own? "Bobota was curious. He didn't think cantrips needed to be tested in foreign lands.
Angor only smiled.
Bobota also understood that the cantrip was something personal, so he didn't ask further since Angor didn't want to talk about it. Instead, with a slightly hesitant tone, he asked about another matter.
"I wonder when I can see … Flower Sparrow?"
