"Ten years ago, during the alchemy exchange, if it weren't for your insistence on getting the sacrificial offerings from Sterling, I wouldn't have traded away the magic materials I've been saving for a hundred years! You, damn you!
"Because of your decision, my sister was forced to join the Execution Society. After being executed on the frontlines again and again, she can only use the Demon Flower Demonblood Stone to keep herself from going crazy. Do you know that? It's all your fault!
"You knew that Bogula was there, but you still asked me to go to that intersection. Because of you, my beloved magic puppet, Ayesha, was taken away by Bogula! You said it was just a magic puppet! But that magic puppet's blonde hair and blue eyes belonged to my beloved, who died young!
"You are the culprit behind everything!"
"It's all your fault! It's all your fault! "
The words "it's all your fault" echoed in Hayley's ears. It wouldn't have mattered if it were someone else, but these figures were her colleagues, senior wizards of the Abstruse Alchemy Guild.
Moreover, every single thing that happened was real. Because of this, Hayley was even more furious!
How did these illusions know about these things? Also, why did they remember these things so clearly? They didn't even protest when it happened. Was this the real resentment they had for him in their hearts?
Hayley had just suppressed her emotions, but under the continuous bombardment of these incantations, she suddenly lost control.
While Hayley's mind was in a mess and she didn't know what to do, the dark figures suddenly stopped their chanting. Their scarlet eyes curved into crescents, giving off a creepy feeling that their evil plan had succeeded. The corners of their mouths kept rising until one-third of their heads were their bloody mouths.
In the next second, these figures began to change shape and elongate, as if they were being … sucked away by something.
The source of their absorption was between Hayley's eyebrows.
These figures transformed into a strange long black belt, which continuously flowed into Hayley's glabella. As the black figures entered between Hayley's eyebrows, the previous clamor started again. Hayley's ears were full of whispers, all kinds of abuse, curses, and insinuations. The murmuring almost drove her crazy.
As Hayley's heart was shattered, the dignity, confidence, and vision that she had built up through her strength for a long time seemed to have become a crumbling mirage that was on the verge of collapse. It was getting further and further away from her until it disappeared without a trace.
Only then did Hayley understand. These weren't illusions at all. They were traps that pried open her heart's defenses, and were filled with malicious curses and mockery.
Hayley bowed, her whole body trembling.
She was already in a panic. the only way, she's chanting the name of the Deep Lord. It was as if she wanted to draw strength from her faith.
After all, Hayley was a believer favored by the Deep Lord. Her call was answered by a split of the Deep Lord's mind. However, in the face of Hayley's confidence that was on the verge of collapse, the Deep Lord only sighed.
Then, Will, Will, Will, the previous ones''s's, Will't't. "
After saying that, the Deep God didn't respond to Hayley anymore.
When Hayley heard the Deep Lord's answer, she instantly broke down.
If the Deep Lord's response had been for Hayley to persevere and capture Toby no matter what, she might have been able to persevere for a longer period of time. But the Deep Lord just said … forget it?
Forget it? This meant that all of Haley's previous efforts had been in vain.
The people who had died, the grievances she had suffered, and her persistence … were all unimportant? How could Hayley not break down?
Maybe the Deep Lord just didn't want Hayley to die here. But Hayley's mind and emotions had already reached a dead end. She was like a frog that fell into a well. All she could see was the sky above the well. She didn't know that the Deep Lord's rare kindness was on the other side of the well.
Hayley raised her head and screamed miserably, unwillingly, and in despair.
His voice pierced through the eerie red light and reached the ears of Angor and the others in the distance.
"What did Toby do? Why is Hayley screaming?" Greya asked in confusion.
She couldn't help but look at Angor, who was talking to Sunders. Angor and Sunders were whispering to each other. It sounded like they were discussing the structure of the red world.
"It looks like an illusion, but it doesn't have any illusion nodes," Angor muttered.
"You should know that illusion nodes are mediums used by wizards to create illusions. Not all illusions have to be supported by illusion nodes," Sunders explained in a plain tone.
Angor also understood that illusions, omens, and the extension of various abilities could all create illusions. For example, Greya's food would also create illusions. That was the result of her ability.
"The wart-shaped crown must have replaced the illusion nodes and acted as a medium to release the illusion. But what's the purpose of this illusion?"
Angor didn't think the illusion was meaningless. The most eye-catching feature of Toby's serpentine bird form was the wart-shaped crown on its triangular head.
Such a conspicuous existence, according to the body structure of a magical creature, would definitely have a significance of being an indicator.
In other words, the illusion created by the wart-shaped crown must be one of the Serpentine Bird's main abilities. Since that was the case, there shouldn't be any meaningless illusions.
However, Angor couldn't find any real meaning in the illusion.
The only thing that puzzled him was, "It doesn't look as aggressive as normal illusions, but it doesn't look like a peaceful illusion either. There's something else."
What exactly was that "something else"? It felt familiar to Angor. It felt like …
"An illusion that can manipulate emotions?" Angor muttered. He was able to put his emotions into his illusions, so it felt familiar to him. However, the red light seemed to have a better control over his emotions, which made him feel like he was being messed up.
He didn't know where the emotions came from. It didn't feel like Toby's own emotions. Instead, it felt like someone else's.
Angor noticed that all the emotions he sensed had different thresholds. It didn't feel like something a person could release in such a short time.
Angor looked away to see what Sunders had to say.
Sunders stared at the illusion in the distance and narrowed his eyes as if he was studying something just like Angor.
After a while, Sunders spoke again, "The illusion itself isn't very advanced, but the meaning behind it is very interesting. It's a very special illusion. If you want to compare it with other illusions, it might have something to do with Mind Illusions. However, there are still some differences. The essence of the illusion is negative emotions, which come from different people. "
Angor was only guessing, but Sunders already gave him a conclusion.
