Through the window of the carriage, Angor saw a middle-aged man wearing a long robe covered in complicated runes standing under the tree emblem of Brute Cavern.
It was Horus.
Since Greya was the closest to the door, she was the first one to get off the carriage.
When he stepped out of the carriage, he heard Greya muttering to herself. "Same old. Cold as the coldest night."
Angor took a moment to realize that Greya was talking about Horus.
"Winter King" Horus. From his name, one could tell that Horus was a wizard who specialized in ice magic.
"With him in the room, we don't even need to use ice spells. We can just make frozen mermaid slices and keep them fresh for twelve hours." Greya complained in a small voice. She didn't dare to say it out loud. She only whispered to Angor because she saw Sunders talking to Horus.
Horus wasn't as strong as Dawn Adepts, so he couldn't release any elemental aura from his body. Greya's description was purely an exaggeration.
After chatting for a while, Horus glanced at Greya and Greya.
Greya felt a chill running down her spine when Horus' gaze landed on her. Fortunately, Horus didn't pay much attention to Greya. Instead, he focused on Angor.
Horus was still looking at Angor with his cold eyes, which made him look even more distant and indifferent. However, if Angor looked closer, he would notice that Horus' gaze was gentler than when he was looking at Greya. Only those who were close to Horus could notice the change in Horus' expression.
Horus looked at Angor. "Mister Rein is glad that you're back. He needs your help."
"I'll go to Cloud Tower as soon as I get back," Angor replied.
Horus nodded. Perhaps he was a man of few words, so he didn't waste time on small talk. "Let's go. The materials for the plane passageway are ready."
Horus took the lead and headed to the station. The others quickly followed him.
However, Horus and Sunders suddenly stopped at the same time.
Before Angor and Greya could figure out what was going on, Horus began to release cold energy from his body, which quickly turned into a thick white mist.
In the next second, a thick dome of ice suddenly enveloped everyone.
The blazing sunlight shone on the transparent dome, reflecting sparkling and swaying spots of light, making everyone in the dome feel as if they were in the shallow bottom of the sea.
"What's going on?" Greya asked.
Horus didn't answer. Instead, he reappeared beside Angor as soon as the dome was completed.
Angor didn't do anything. He sensed that Horus didn't mean to harm him. Horus simply teleported to his side and did nothing else.
Sunders walked over as well.
He noticed that both Sunders and Horus were frowning as if they were on guard against something.
Could it be an enemy attack? Otherwise, why would Horus set up such an obvious defensive dome? Was the target me, or Saunders?
Before Angor could ask for more details, he suddenly froze on the spot. An indescribable sense of danger came from the sky. His scalp went numb, and his eyebrows began to twitch.
Angor looked at Greya and saw the same expression in her eyes.
Greya's eyes darkened. She sensed the heartbeat of her body and whispered, "It's a sign of danger."
Moreover, it was a huge crisis that could threaten his life.
The only one who didn't feel anything was the weak Azaz. He looked around in confusion, wondering what was going on.
There was no cloud in the sky, and the sun was shining brightly. Everything seemed fine. But why did everyone look so serious?
While Azaz was still wondering, he suddenly felt something in his heart. However, it didn't come from Azaz. It came from Sebastian, who he sacrificed and hid in the void.
"Sebastian, do you know what's going on?" Azaz couldn't help but ask loudly in his mind.
Usually, Sebastian would reply quickly. But today, it was as if he had vanished into thin air. No matter how Azaz called, he didn't respond. Only the throbbing in his heart made Azaz understand that Sebastian hadn't disappeared.
He didn't disappear, but he didn't answer. Did he not want to answer, or did he not dare to?
While Azaz was still trying to figure out what to do, the sky suddenly darkened.
Without any warning, a second ago, the sky was clear and cloudless, but in the next second, for some unknown reason, the sky suddenly darkened.
However, there were still no clouds in the sky. The reason why it was dark was because there was a huge crack in the sky. This crack seemed to be a crack in the void. It was even darker than the blackest ink. It was as if it was alive, and it instantly filled the sky.
Day turned into night.
However, even with such a shocking change, there was still no strange aura being emitted. Aziz still didn't feel anything. Everyone on the street, including apprentices and mortals, was doing the same as usual. Some even stopped to look at the sky.
"What's going on?" Everyone wondered.
No one knew the answer. Horus, Sunders, Angor, and Greya didn't know either. The only thing they could feel was the omen of danger they had never felt before.
"Is it the monster that released the Legendary aura from the Void? Has it returned?" Horus quickly asked. With such a frightening sense of crisis, Horus could only think of a Legendary-ranked existence.
Angor and Greya exchanged a glance. "No." Greya shook her head.
Horus looked at them in confusion. He did not know why they answered so confidently. He had doubts in his heart, but he also knew that now was not the time to ask. With a gloomy face, he said, "Although I don't know what's going on, the situation here is very bad. Even if I release the Eternal Ice Mantle, the throbbing between my eyebrows still hasn't disappeared. It's not safe here.
Everyone knew they had to leave without Horus' warning.
But could they use a plane passageway to escape? Such a huge vortex was connected to the unknown void, which meant that the surrounding space energy was fluctuating. Using a plane passageway here, especially a long-distance one, might get lost.
"I'll open the door," Angor said while the others were still hesitating.
It wasn't safe to use a plane passageway, but they could open the door directly. Angor's door was point-to-point, not a long tunnel.
The door he opened didn't teleport him far, but his biggest wish was to leave Floating Mech City as soon as possible and get away from this dark place.
Instead, his door would be useful.
The model of the door was fixed on the spell slot. He didn't need to construct it. He only needed to use the mana in his mana whirlpool to create a door in front of them.
He quickly located the furthest distance the model could reach and quickly opened the door to leave.
But at this moment, a bright light suddenly flashed from the center of the vortex in the sky.
