It had been about a month since they came back from the Abyss Plane.
Bobota didn't tell Angor about it, but his mind was filled with anxiety.
Bobota knew that going to Dark Castle, a wizard organization that rarely interacted with the outside world, was not an easy task. He wasn't planning to go right away. If he really wanted to go, he would need to prepare himself first.
This was because he didn't know how to explain his past to Hua Que Que when he met her.
Bobota only asked this because he hoped Angor could give him enough time to prepare.
"Not too long, I think." Angor considered for a moment and gave a vague answer.
Like Bobota, Angor wanted to go to Dark Castle as soon as possible. He couldn't do anything about Toby's condition, so he could only hope that Greya could help him.
Back at Phantom Island, Greya was summoned away by an apprentice from Dark Castle, so Angor believed that Greya was still in Dark Castle.
Now that Jon's condition was stable, Angor planned to visit Dark Castle as soon as possible.
However, if he went to Dark Castle alone, he might not be rejected since he was an alchemist. But who knew if Isabella, that old witch, would go crazy again like she did in Silent Hill.
Angor had to wait until Sunders came back from Punk's Theme Park. Before leaving Padt Manor, Sunders told Bobota about Dark Castle's arrangement.
"Not too long?" Bobota nodded. Angor didn't give him a specific time, but at least Angor didn't forget about it.
Bobota nodded and did not ask any more questions. He put the topic aside for now.
…
After flying for half a day, Angor finally arrived at the calm zone near the center of Whalebone Sea.
There was no wind all year round, so there were few ships or sea monsters in this area. This was the perfect place for Angor.
He found a remote island in the middle of the endless sea and decided to construct his first spell slot.
However, before that, he needed to complete the final few runes of his door model.
Angor focused his mind space.
The model of the door, which was emitting a strange luster, stood in the midst of chaos.
Now, the more than 2,700 lines of the door model had basically taken shape. Only by looking at it carefully through the Axes of the Universe would one discover that there were still a few lines that were missing.
Of the 1,300 or so lines he created, about one-twentieth of them contained space energy.
He thought he would have a hard time constructing the spatial runes, but it turned out to be just a bit slower than the ordinary ones. However, it required much more mana than the ordinary ones.
Therefore, every time he constructed a space attribute pattern, he would have to meditate again and wait for his mana source to recover before he could continue to construct new patterns.
It was because of these spatial patterns that he had been working so slowly. He only managed to finish it today.
He estimated that his mana pool was now full, and it only took him less than one-thirtieth of his mana to construct all of them. The remaining mana should be enough to support the consumption of the spell slots.
With that in mind, Angor took a deep breath and began to construct the remaining runes.
Maybe because he was already familiar with the process in the past few months, he still had time to think about other questions.
For example, what would the model of the door do?
Actually, he already had a general idea of how to solve this problem when he first started building it.
It should be the effect of teleportation.
He did not know whether the final effect would be short-distance teleportation or long-distance teleportation. Any teleportation skill was very useful to Magi.
Short-distance teleportation could be used for combat and evasion, while long-distance teleportation could be used for running away and traveling.
It was important to note that even the rarest of space-type Magi would have to reach at least the official level before they could learn the corresponding space-displacement spells.
Learning a teleportation cantrip from his first spell slot was a great help to Angor.
However, Angor still had some doubts.
Was the effect of the Door Model really just a simple spatial displacement?
He had this doubt because only half of the door model was built by him, and the other half was made up of a "special energy".
Even now, Angor could not understand the composition of this special energy.
It came from the strange world that was closely related to the Alien Eye. The Alien Eye sucked Angor into that world after absorbing the energy from the plane fusion.
In that strange world, Angor removed the emotional component and did many things rationally.
Among them, he learned "building blocks" from a certain energy core in the strange world, which was how he built the model of the door.
Since it was a "class", Angor's "teacher" would be the one to demonstrate the process.
And the half of the door model that his "teacher" built back then was made of special energy.
Angor could simply let the special energy disappear and use his own mana to reconstruct the model in his mind space. However, the special energy was too strange. It looked ordinary, but it was like a small piece of rock exposed on the surface of the sea. The part exposed was small, but the rest hidden under the sea was unimaginably huge.
Angor even speculated that the special energy was unique to the Alien Eye. It was something beyond his knowledge.
Therefore, after analyzing the pros and cons, Angor decided to continue building the half-completed model of the door using the special energy.
Once the model was completed, it would be permanently fixed in the spell slot. That way, he could keep the model of the door intact.
His choice could be said to be very bold.
This was because he had no idea what the pros and cons of the special energy were. Would it cause any side effects to him?
But he still did it anyway. Back in the strange world, he did not have the emotional component. He was in an absolutely rational state. After analyzing the situation, he believed that the special energy would not do him any harm.
At the same time, he planned to bring Jon back to Earth, so he would not miss anything related to the Alien Eye, including this special energy.
Since half of the model he created was made of special energy, he wasn't sure if the final effect of the door would be a simple teleportation.
Would the special energy cause other effects? That was something he did not know.
Besides, Angor used his own mana to build the model, which contained illusion properties. Would that affect the final effect of the door?
He could only find out after the model of the door was completed.
…
Time slowly passed.
Bobota suddenly felt something was off. He looked up in confusion.
He first looked into the distance. The sun was already setting, and its last rays shone on the surface of the sea, creating ripples on the water surface. He looked closer and did not see anything wrong.
He looked back and saw Angor sitting on the cliff not far away. The young man still had his eyes closed.
Bobota hesitated for a moment and thought to himself, "Did I sense it wrong? Also, didn't Angor say he's going to experiment with a cantrip? Why is he not doing anything? "
Bobota did not want to disturb Angor. He shook his head and picked up the nest again to observe the queen.
…
At this moment, near the coast of the Old Earth, a figure emitting a pale blue light was standing by a peaceful lake.
If one looked closely, they would notice that the figure's body was almost transparent, as if it was made of liquid.
However, the figure's facial features were clearly defined.
If Angor was here, he would immediately recognize the figure as "Child of Sea" Jebra.
The only difference was that the figure did not have a scale between its eyebrows.
And this figure was indeed related to Jebra. It was the water clone sent by Jebra this time.
Jebra already sent several water clones to different parts of the sea nearby, while this one was hiding in the Whalebone Sea.
"I should be able to reach Kim's location through the underground water channel," Jebra muttered to himself.
Since he was here to find Angor, he had to go to the "Silver Star" first, which might know where Angor was.
With that in mind, Jebra suddenly turned around and looked at the Whalebone Sea in the distance.
The sky and the sea were separated by a line. Both the sky and the sea were dyed a shy orange-red by the sunset.
"What a strange feeling." Jebra frowned. There was nothing wrong with this place, so why did he feel so strange?
"Too bad it's just a clone." Jebra sighed. "I wish I was here with my real body."
As time went by, the strange feeling in Jebra's mind grew stronger.
He looked at the lake under his feet and then looked at the sea in the distance.
"Should I go check it out?"
Jebra pondered for a moment before he decided to leave the lake and head toward the sea.
Since he knew Angor was at the Old Earth, he could come and find him at any time. However, the strange feeling that made him feel apprehensive was something that was rarely seen.
Jebra decided to check it out anyway.
Meanwhile, in Jebra's farm on the outskirts of Konya, Silver Star also frowned and looked around. She did not see anything strange, so she did not pay it any mind.
Meanwhile, inside the sealed chamber of Jebra's underground lab, Kim opened his eyes.
Kim did notice something strange, but he did not think too much about it. Or rather, he did not dare to think too much. This was a critical moment, and he could not afford to let his guard down.
Kim closed his eyes again and sank into his own thoughts.
