Before anyone realized it, the sky slowly turned red as the end of the day ended. Night had arrived.
However, the strange thing was that there was no sign of the moon or the stars on the night screen. Instead, there were rolling black clouds gathering in the sky.
Due to the darkness of the night as a natural cover, if one did not look carefully, they would not be able to see that the dark clouds were gathering in the sky.
Bobota did not notice the change in the sky until a sudden gust of wind caught his attention.
"Why is there wind in the Calm Belt?" Bobota looked up in confusion.
He did not see the source of the wind. On the contrary, when he noticed the dark night sky, he suddenly froze … Why were there low clouds surging in the sky, as if there were lightning snakes prancing about in them? But the air was very dry. There was no sign of a thunderstorm.
Bobota wouldn't have minded it if it were just dark clouds hanging low in the sky. However, the dark clouds were moving in the shape of a whirlpool. It looked like a tornado rising from the ground to the sky and stirring up the clouds.
More importantly, the center of the whirlpool was facing the unnamed island they were on.
The hole in the center of the black cloud vortex was like a terrifying giant eye, overlooking every blade of grass and every tree on the island.
"Is this … an omen?" Bobota could not imagine such a phenomenon happening in the Calm Belt. He could only conclude that it was an omen. And the sky did look like an omen.
Bobota had never triggered an omen before, but he knew a thing or two about them.
Generally speaking, an omen was triggered by something that affected the laws of the material world.
The most frequent omens were alchemy omens. Even in Brute Cavern, which was known as Alchemy Frozen Earth, there would be several alchemy omens every year. Floating Mech City, on the other hand, had countless of them.
Apart from alchemy omens, there would also be omens when someone was improving himself or herself. For example, breaking through the great barrier, stepping onto the path of truth, becoming a legend, and so on.
Wizards who knew about omens could easily tell what kind of omen it was.
Bobota did not have such an ability. However, as a supernatural, he was not stupid. Judging from the center of the omen, it was almost certain that the source of the omen was this nameless island.
This nameless island had existed for so many years. If there was something wrong with it, it would have changed long ago. Therefore, the nameless island was not the main point. The main point was the variables that existed on the island.
Himself and Angor.
Bobota knew very well that he had done nothing other than tinkering with the Soft Larva Nest ever since he came to the island. The Soft Bug Hive was also really calm.
The only possibility was that the omen here was caused by Angor.
Bobota turned around and looked at Angor, who was still standing on the cliff. The alchemy omen was removed, so it was a sign of self-improvement?
Was he going to break through the barrier?
Bobota thought for a moment and shook her head. Breaking through a major barrier was a very serious matter. There was a lot of preparation in the early stages. How could it be held so carelessly?
If it wasn't a breakthrough, then what was it?
Bobota suddenly remembered Angor's conversation on Gondola. He asked Angor where he was going, and Angor said, "I'm going to find a secluded place and experiment with a new cantrip."
Experiment with a new cantrip?
What kind of cantrip would cause such an omen?
Bobota's eyes widened in shock. There was only one answer he could think of — the omen of spell creation!
Bobota was wondering why Angor would go to such a secluded place to experiment with a new cantrip. If Angor was trying to create a new spell, it would make sense.
However, creating a new spell as an apprentice was simply unimaginable.
Although Bobota had read in books that some gifted geniuses could create spells as apprentices, he had never seen such a thing happen before.
Was he going to witness such a miracle today?
Bobota suddenly felt a little excited.
However, despite his excitement, he still had some doubts in his heart. This was because he had seen some records before. Regardless of whether it was images or words, the signs of creation would not be so dull.
The fluctuation of an abnormal sign should be very obvious.
Right now, Bobota felt something strange, but it was not that strong. What made him notice the change in the dark clouds in the sky was the abnormal wind blowing from the Calm Belt, not the fluctuation of the omen.
Bobota could only speculate. Maybe Angor is just an apprentice who doesn't know much about spells. Maybe he made some mistakes while creating a new spell, and that's why the omen was so faint.
Of course, this was only Bobota's guess. No one knew the truth.
…
Angor didn't notice what was going on outside. He was fully immersed in his mind space.
According to the time, when the dark clouds appeared in the sky, Angor had already finished constructing the last pattern of his "door model".
He was now trying his best to fix the model onto a spell slot.
A spell slot was a special location in a spirit model. By using the spirit model to run for a long time, the spell model could be permanently fixed.
This process would be very difficult for other Magi. To fix a spell model, the spell model had to be perfectly aligned with each coordinate of the spell slot, and it had to be connected to the spirit model for a long time to achieve an instantaneous effect.
Angor had to be careful with every step. Other Sorcerers, including official Sorcerers, could also make mistakes during the solidification process. This could cause the spell model to collapse, and they could only reconstruct it.
But Angor didn't have to worry about this.
With the help of the Axes of the Universe, Angor could accurately locate all the coordinates.
He had practiced this process many times, but he still did it carefully. After all, the model of the door this time contained special energy. If it really failed, the next model of the door would have to be constructed with mana.
In Angor's chaotic mind space, the shining model of the door wasn't released by him. Instead, it was slowly being attracted by the spirit model.
The "door" was slowly but surely moving toward the spell slot on the spirit model.
During this time, Angor still had to use up the remaining mana in his mana pool to keep the model from collapsing. He didn't encounter any difficulties, but he would use up a lot of mana.
Finally, the model of the door was successfully placed on the spell slot.
This process, from the perspective of the Mind Space, was very slow. But in reality, it only took a few seconds.
Next, he had to adapt the spell slot to the model of the door. Or rather, his spirit model had to adapt to the new structure. After all, from now on, the model of the door would be fixed together with the spirit model.
It wouldn't take long for the two to adapt.
During this process, Angor could also learn more about the effect of the model of the door through the feedback he received from the spirit model.
Speaking of which, when the model of the door was completed, Angor already sensed something from the "door".
His previous conjecture was not wrong. The model of the door did allow him to teleport.
Unfortunately, it didn't allow him to move a long distance. It was only a short-distance teleportation.
Of course, Angor also knew that long-distance teleportation could be as effective as a plane passageway. This was a very high-grade spell even for a space-type sorcerer.
It was only a short-distance teleportation, but Angor was already satisfied with it. With the help of illusions and a strong body, he should be able to improve his fighting ability.
However, whether or not there would be a qualitative change would depend on the limitations of this teleportation. If the limitations were too great, then it could only be said that it was better than nothing.
Angor was pretty sure about the effect of teleportation. However, there was still something he didn't understand about the model of the door.
It was the special energy.
Angor could sense the existence of the energy, but he couldn't determine its specific effect.
When the model of the door was formed, Angor was sure that if he released it, it would only cause teleportation because the special energy seemed to be in a dormant state.
Or rather, Angor didn't meet the requirements to activate the special energy.
Angor didn't know how the energy worked, but he was sure that the "model of the door" wasn't just about teleportation.
He would have to do a lot of experiments to find out the details.
…
To a Magus, every spell slot was very important.
It didn't mean that a wizard had to enchant a powerful spell on the slot. It meant that the spell on the slot had to be useful to the wizard.
Angor was quite satisfied with his first spell slot. Teleportation was very useful, especially since the slot could be used to cast spells instantly. It could even be used as a life-saving card.
However, Angor was still in a daze. Or rather, he didn't understand what was going on.
He still couldn't believe that he could learn how to teleport. It was already difficult to cross over to another system, let alone cross over to the mystical space system. That was even more difficult.
Angor couldn't find an explanation. He could only assume that it was because of the strange world and the Alien Eye.
However, he didn't stay in a daze for long. After several minutes, his spirit model and the new structure of the spell slot finally reached a tacit understanding.
Now, his spirit model and the model of the door on the spell slot had become one!
While Angor was admiring the new changes, his mana pool, which had been stagnant for a long time, suddenly began to move.
