When they were alone in the pool, Sunders gestured for Angor to follow him.
They walked on the sea of stars and were bathed in the starlight. It was as if they had become one with the ripples on the water.
"So Dodoro already knows about the dream wasteland," Angor said as they continued to walk on the water.
"You told him?"
Angor shook his head. "He predicted it himself."
Earlier, when Angor asked Dodoro to stay behind, Dodoro told Angor about the future he didn't want to talk about.
To Angor's surprise, Dodoro chose to keep the dream wasteland a secret.
Angor didn't know what Dodoro saw, but he was sure that Dodoro knew that the dream wasteland belonged to Angor. Since Angor didn't tell anyone about it, Dodoro didn't want to reveal it in front of others.
Only when Angor was alone with Dodoro would he reveal it.
"A prophecy …" Sunders' eyes went blank for a second, but he quickly regained his composure. "As expected of the last descendant of the Provenance Clan. It seems that Dodoro's gift of prophecy is as unique as his own. "
"With the help of Riddle of Stars, Dodoro's prophecy almost reached the level of an observer. That's unimaginable." Sunders looked at Angor. "But now, he's in the same predicament as you. His strength doesn't match his status. He has the means to climb to the top, but he doesn't have the ability to stay at the top. You should pay more attention to him. "
Angor nodded. "That's what Mister Tree Spirit said. Success and failure all depend on one's reputation. "
"I'll tell him to keep a low profile when he returns to Brute Cavern."
Since Tree Spirit already mentioned it, Sunders didn't say anything else. Besides, Dodoro was one of Angor's contacts, so Sunders believed that Angor would handle the situation well.
"Did Dodoro tell you anything else apart from the dream wasteland?"
"He also said something else, but he said it very vaguely. I didn't understand it." He still remembered how Dodoro tried his best to cover up his words when he said those words.
This was the first time he saw Dodoro hiding his prophecy from someone. Instead, Dodoro chose to use a special word to convey his meaning.
Still, he didn't understand what Dodoro was trying to say.
"What did he say?" Sunders was curious.
"When the gears turn, the path of destiny will be laid out. Our original intentions have not changed, and we can forge ahead. "
He repeated Dodoro's words to Angor.
He repeated the sentence again, but he still could not understand it. It sounded like a motivational statement, but he felt that it wasn't that simple.
Sunders fell into deep thought.
A moment later, he muttered to himself, "My original intention is still the same. Could it be related to Origin City? "
Sunders shook his head. "I don't think it has anything to do with Foundation City. What Dodoro is trying to tell you is to never forget your original goal. Don't let the outside world disturb you.
"So it's an inspirational warning again? I don't think it's a prophecy then. "
Sunders gave Angor a thoughtful look. "It's not that simple. Do you know what gears represent in the study of Divination?"
Angor hesitated. In alchemy, gears were mechanical devices that could be used to transfer power. But was there such a thing as gears in a prophecy?
Angor thought for a while and still couldn't find an answer. He looked at Sunders and saw the man looking at his chest.
Sunders seemed to be looking at something.
Angor reached a hand to his chest and felt a ticking sound coming from his fingertips.
He thought of something and quickly took out a bronze pocket watch from his inner pocket.
The ticking sound was caused by the hands of the pocket watch moving. Angor looked at the pocket watch and realized something. "The … Wheel of Time?"
There were three main categories for Divination wizards, namely the River of Fate, the String of World, and the Wheel of Time.
The image that often appeared in the Wheel of Time was that the hands of the clock were spinning rapidly under the linkage of the gears.
Therefore, in a sense, the gear could represent the wheel of time.
So, Dodoro's words meant that the Wheel of Time was coming, and the path of fate was laid out before you. You had to stay true to your heart to reach the end.
It sounded more complete, but what did the prefixes of "Wheel of Time" and "Road of Fate" mean?
Sunders suddenly spoke, "Everyone's fate is different. Even twins from the same social class and family will have different destinies when they grow up. "
"Choice?" Angor felt something exploding in his head.
People's minds were not the same. They would make different choices when faced with the same problem. When you make this choice, even if you are twins, even if all the karma is the same, because of the different choices, the trajectory of your life will constantly deviate, and you will each have a different destiny.
The Wheel of Time, Choice, and Path of Fate.
Angor already had an answer in his mind when he put all these together. As the answer appeared, a figure whose face he couldn't see clearly appeared in his mind.
"The Time Thief," Angor muttered the name.
Sunders nodded. "If I'm not mistaken, Dodoro is trying to warn you that the Time Thief will come to steal your choice in the near future. Also, the choice must be related to the dream wasteland. "
Dodoro didn't dare to tell Angor the truth because he knew that the Time Thief was much stronger than him. But Dodoro had to do everything he could to tell Angor the answer. Angor's future was at stake, and Dodoro had to do everything he could to get the answer.
That was why Dodoro's words were so difficult to understand.
"I've been wondering when he's going to come, and why. Now I know the answer. He's here for the dream wasteland."
"That's why the dream wasteland has so much potential," said Sunders.
Sunders smiled and patted Angor's shoulder. "Don't worry. Dodoro already told you the solution, didn't he?"
Don't forget your original goal and keep moving forward.
As long as you have a strong will and don't give in to the temptation of the Time Thief, you will eventually reach the end of the path.
Sunders looked at Angor with a determined look, and he slowly relaxed. When the Time Thief showed up, Sunders wouldn't be able to help Angor. Angor would have to make the decision himself.
It was easy for Sunders to say, but there were still uncertainties when he had to make a choice.
Without a strong will, it would be hard to make it to the end. Sunders didn't want to make Angor more anxious. Instead, he wanted to strengthen Angor's confidence.
This was why Sunders didn't seem to care at all. However, he wasn't as relaxed as he looked.
