As for Angor, he didn't have to pay anything for the deal. White Bullet was an undead creature, which belonged to Dark Castle, and so did the Infant Soul.
Of course, he didn't do nothing.
Without his Prelude to Rebirth, he wouldn't have been able to do all this.
Angor kept moving forward. Before long, the second and third white bullets were loaded into the magazines.
Due to the undead creatures that suddenly crawled out of the ground, Angor decided to use the ground as a surveillance area to prevent the same thing from happening again.
However, sometimes, danger didn't come from an unguarded corner. It could also come from carelessness.
The wizards around him only stopped the amalgamations and allowed them to approach Angor, who then used Prelude to Rebirth to deal with them.
Angor didn't encounter any problems in his previous attempts. But this time, he made a serious mistake.
Thousands of undead creatures swarmed out of their nests and surrounded Angor.
This was the largest group of undead he had encountered so far. At first, he didn't worry too much about it. As long as there weren't any special undead creatures or strange creatures like Infant Spirits, he would be able to deal with them easily.
However, when he really made a move, he realized that something was wrong.
Some of the undead creatures suddenly began to glow brightly when they approached him.
Angor quickly realized that these were the self-detonations of the amalgamations. And it wasn't just one. There were at least a hundred of them rushing into Angor's area.
These amalgamations had already caused the energy inside them to go out of balance. Even Prelude to Rebirth couldn't reverse the effect of the explosion.
"Shit! How did you do that? Why are there so many amalgamations?"
"Watch out!"
The explosion happened in an instant, and it was an explosion caused by hundreds of undead aggregates. Even if the surrounding Magi realized that something was wrong and wanted to go in and help, it was already too late.
After a loud explosion, a blazing white light lit up the entire Dark Castle.
Dust flew everywhere. Coupled with the glaring light, it obscured everyone's vision.
When the dust settled, everyone quickly looked at Angor's location. They only saw a giant crater left behind by the explosion. However, there was no one inside. Not even a corpse.
"Phew — that was dangerous." A frightened voice came from afar. Everyone followed the voice and saw Angor standing beside Sunders.
His cane pointed at the air, and a strange rune spread out from the tip of the cane. Everyone heard a faint screeching sound.
"Nightmare Substitute!" Seeing this scene, how could the others not understand what was going on?
Sunders quickly used Nightmare Substitute to bring Angor out of his hiding place.
Seeing this scene, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Angor was saved, but there was still another problem. How did the undead amalgamations show up? Why didn't they notice them?
All of the Magi furrowed their brows as they recalled what had happened.
They clearly looked like ordinary undead, and they didn't have the characteristics of an amalgamation of undead … What was the problem?
Everyone could not help but look at Isabelle.
Isabelle had been the leader of the Soul Elementalists since a thousand years ago. Perhaps she was the only one who could provide an answer.
Isabelle considered for a moment and said, "Their aura seems to be concealed by something."
While the others were still puzzled, Angor frowned and began to think about something else that happened earlier.
"I ran into a strange undead creature," Angor spoke to Sunders through their Spirit Bond.
Angor explained the situation to Sunders while the man was still puzzled.
Not long ago, when Angor saw the glowing undead creatures around him, he already knew what was going on. A large number of amalgamations broke through the encirclement.
It happened so fast that he did not have enough time to escape. Even if he ejected his soul using the sequence of gravity, he would still be affected. Angor immediately prepared to open a door and teleport away.
But at this moment, an undead creature suddenly appeared behind him, disrupting his rhythm of opening the door.
Angor was startled. The undead creature appeared out of nowhere and attacked him without warning.
"… And then I was brought out of the center of the explosion by my professor's Nightmare Substitute."
"So you're saying the undead creature showed up behind you without warning?" Sunders wondered.
"That's not it." "I have a strange feeling. I don't think she's going to attack me." Angor pondered for a moment before he spoke again.
He paused a little and added, "Or rather, she wasn't trying to attack me."
"Then what was she trying to do?"
Angor pointed at the revolver in his hand. "Maybe Prelude to Rebirth."
Angor still remembered that the undead creature did not attack him at all. She only wanted to steal the item. However, Angor sensed the malicious intent behind him in time, which prompted the woman to attack him instead of trying to steal Prelude to Rebirth.
"Do you remember what she looked like then?"
"That won't help. When the Nightmare Substitute took me away, she also began to glow."
"An amalgamation of undead creatures?"
Angor nodded. It was also an amalgamation of undead creatures, but he could not tell from its appearance.
Sunders frowned. "I think something is wrong. I need to discuss it with Isabelle."
A female voice came from their Spirit Bond. "If you want to ask about the undead aggregates, I'm sorry. I can't tell what's going on."
It was Isabelle.
"Yes, it has something to do with the amalgamations. But it's something else. Why don't you tell her, Angor?"
Only Angor knew what was going on. Hundreds of undead creatures exploded at the same time, and the blinding white light had obscured the inside of the explosion.
Isabelle frowned after hearing Angor's explanation.
"That thing behind you … is it really an amalgamation of undead creatures?" Isabelle spoke in a low voice, "I've studied them before. They used a special method to combine the fragments of different undead creatures together.
"The only use of these so-called aggregates of undead is to be used as a tool to be consumed. They don't have any logic when compared to ordinary undead creatures. "
Isabelle was a Soul Manipulator. As long as she was willing, she could temporarily control undead creatures and make them do simple things for her.
But this amalgamation of undead creatures could not understand even the simplest of tasks. Its mind was filled with nothing but chaos, madness, and slaughter.
But this amalgamation of undead creatures did not self-destruct when it appeared behind Angor. Instead, it chose to attack Angor or steal Prelude to Rebirth. Something was not right.
"Speaking of which, the Infant Spirits were strange as well," said Sunders. "There are so many wizards around here. Why did the undead woman with the Infant Soul target you?" Sunders asked. "You're the only one left."
Angor was right. There were so many wizards around, and none of them could kill the female Infant Spirits in a short time. They were the best targets for the Infant Spirits. But why did they come to Angor? That was strange.
"What would have happened if the Infant Spirits saw me?" Angor asked.
"They would be cursed. But Infant Spirits have different abilities. You'll have to ask Isabelle about the specific curse, "said Sunders. The two Infant Spirits were with Isabelle at the moment.
Isabelle was still thinking about the amalgamation of undead creatures when she heard Sunders' question. "Confusion."
If Angor turned around to look at the two Infant Spirits, his mind would be confused, and he might even be controlled by them.
Sunders raised an eyebrow at the answer.
There must be a reason behind all this.
The amalgamation of undead creatures seemed to be after the Prelude to Rebirth. But if the two Infant Spirits were going after Angor as well, they probably wanted more than Prelude to Rebirth. Angor himself was also their target.
Isabelle nodded. "If what you said is true, Chaos Origins must have her eyes on Angor already. She'll do something else."
Isabelle reminded Angor to be extra careful.
But Angor suddenly remembered something else. When he first came out of the Black Forest node, he ran into a strange undead creature. He didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now that he thought about it, he realized something was wrong.
He didn't notice the undead creature until it got close to him.
When Angor took out Prelude to Rebirth to shoot at her, she immediately ran away. This didn't fit the typical behavior of an undead creature. Before Prelude to Rebirth fired, the undead creature wouldn't know what the weapon would do to her.
The fact that she turned around and fled meant that she knew what the Prelude to Reincarnation would do to her.
But Angor didn't even use Prelude to Rebirth when he just came out of the Black Forest node. Even though he had used the Prelude to Reincarnation when he helped Natasha earlier, the chain of logic of memory, fear, and escape was not something that an ordinary undead could do, right?
This reminded Angor of another undead creature.
Goman King's Thirteen Daughters.
When Angor used White Bullet to turn Goman Princess into a half-undead creature, she reacted to Prelude to Rebirth by running away.
This was similar to what happened before.
But that undead creature didn't look like Goman Princess' face.
