Due to the unstable energy in space, a series of chain reactions would occur. Sometimes, even a small energy contraction could cause a spatial rift to collapse in the future.
Therefore, it was common for space rifts to appear in the void.
However, this crack was a little different. It appeared out of nowhere without any reason. It did not come from the end of a chain reaction.
Usually, space rifts that appeared out of nowhere were not naturally formed. They were created by external forces.
Toby was having too much fun, and the energy vortex was still lingering around him, so he did not notice the space rift. Angor's group, on the other hand, saw it clearly.
"Should we warn Toby?" Angor asked.
Sunders looked into the distance. The moment the space rift appeared, he already sensed its source and who was behind it.
His eyes flickered. "A group of interesting people has arrived."
Interesting people? Angor did not understand what Sunders meant.
Sunders didn't explain. He slowly took off his glove and crossed his thumb with his middle finger. Snap! A large number of illusion nodes appeared out of thin air.
As soon as the node appeared, it disappeared at an extremely fast speed. Along with the node, Angor and the others disappeared as well.
"A hidden illusion?" Angor recognized the illusion right away. But he did not understand why Sunders wanted to hide them. Was it because of the newcomers?
Who were they?
"Keep watching, and you'll see." Sunders did not explain. He was still as calm as ever.
Angor considered and nodded. They were right beside Toby anyway. If Toby was in danger, they could help him as soon as possible. Angor also wanted to see how interesting these "interesting people" were.
Not long after they disappeared, the space rift finally took shape, and a woman wearing a black ceremonial robe walked out of it. Not long after she appeared, a group of black-robed people followed her.
"Her?" Greya narrowed her eyes as she looked at the woman in the front.
Angor did not know many people in the wizarding world, so he did not know who they were. But their attire told him who they were.
On the back of their black robes, there was an emblem that resembled a total solar eclipse. This insignia explained everything.
Greya confirmed his guess. "The woman at the front is Hou, a Fallen from Abyss Alchemy Guild."
The Fallen was not a position, but a title for the followers of the Deep Lord.
He didn't know much about Abstruse Alchemy Guild, but he did know that Hou was one of the higher-ups of Abstruse Alchemy Guild, just like Misaro who sent him an invitation.
"Seventy years ago, he was also a supernova with great potential. I didn't expect him to join the Abstruse Alchemy Guild. Once she becomes an official follower of the Lord of Depths, she will only become a tool for the Lord of Depths. She will never be able to transcend. "Greya sighed.
"Speaking of which, I heard a rumor that Hou is the most important person in Deep Alchemy Guild right now. She stays in seclusion all the time and rarely comes out. Why is she here?" Greya frowned as she asked, "Well, why is she here?"
As Greya wondered, a group of people from Abstruse Alchemy Guild walked out of a space fissure.
The first thing they did after coming out was to look around.
When they saw Toby's giant body, they were a little surprised. But they did not say anything and continued to observe the surroundings.
A while later, a group of people in black robes came to Hou. "There's no one around."
Of course, this was only what they saw with their eyes. As for using his spiritual tentacles to investigate, there was no way to do so because the surrounding energy was too chaotic. In addition, the phenomenon had yet to disappear, so it was very difficult to investigate.
Hou knew this, but she believed that even if someone wanted to use the omen, they would not hide it.
The weaker ones would easily hide, but the weaker ones would not.
Therefore, there was a high probability that there was no one around.
"The oracle I received told me to use this omen monster as a sacrificial ritual. It's good that no one is around. We don't need to worry about it." Hou paused for a moment and said, "This is a rare sacrifice from our Lord, and we must fulfill it. Do you understand?"
After receiving a response, Hou narrowed his eyes and looked at the snake-birds that were still jubilant in the distance. His eyes flickered with greed.
If she sacrificed the Snakebird, she might get more attention, and the Lord of Depths would give her more power. Perhaps she would be able to break through her shackles and enter the world of truth.
While the people from Abstruse Alchemy Guild were staring at Toby like hungry tigers, Angor and his companions had already heard everything they said.
"Interesting indeed." Sunders chuckled.
Angor and Greya didn't find it interesting. Instead, they frowned. They were not worried about these people. What they cared about was Hou's tone. It sounded like the Lord of Depths was interested in Toby.
If Toby was targeted by a powerful demon god, it would not be good news.
Sunders noticed their serious expressions and spoke slowly, "The Lord of Depths has his eyes on many things. Don't worry too much."
"If the Lord of Depths really wants something, he wouldn't just send these people to capture Toby," said Sunders.
Sunders was right. If the Lord of Depths really wanted something, he would have a better way to get it. He would not send a bunch of people who might be weaker than Toby.
The Deep Lord wasn't in a hurry to capture someone like Uta, who had stirred up trouble in Rasudran and might even know the truth behind the fall of the Flameless Lord. It was even less likely that the Deep Lord would care about Uta. He was probably just curious about Toby.
Both Angor and Greya felt much better after thinking about this. Still, they could not afford to underestimate the Lord of Depths either.
At the very least, they could not allow Toby to be captured by Abstruse Alchemy Guild.
Not far away, Toby seemed to have noticed the people from the Esoteric Alchemy Guild. Toby also sensed the strong malice emanating from them.
Toby was not an idiot. When he saw the obvious hostility in their eyes, he knew that they would become his enemies.
Toby would never show mercy to his enemies.
"But can Toby beat them?" Greya hesitated. "Should I go and help?"
"No need to rush. You can do that when Toby is about to lose," said Sunders. "We can use this chance to see how strong Toby has become after his breakthrough."
