The pair of hands that went through the wall wrapped around Angor's body and fell backward. Angor felt as if he had bid farewell to light and was falling into a dark ocean.
Everything around him was dark and silent.
Everything in the world was still. Only his body kept falling to the bottom of the ocean like a sinking whale.
Moreover, the dark world was also filled with a pressure similar to the depth of the ocean. Both his body and spirit were restricted. He couldn't even turn around to see who was hugging him.
He could only allow himself to follow the guidance of a force and continue to fall.
The feeling of being unable to control himself in the dark must be terrible. Surprisingly, he did not feel too bad about it. Instead, he felt calm.
Even the sense of urgency from the attack at the entrance of the passageway was soothed in this boundless darkness, becoming peaceful and quiet.
Maybe it was because his mind was calm, Angor began to pay attention to the details around him and magnified them.
The first thing he noticed was the pair of hands hugging him from behind. He could not see who was hugging him, but he could feel that the hug was very gentle. It could even be described as "gentle".
But there was one thing that puzzled Angor. During the whole process, the person kept loosening their grip and tightening their grip.
Angor could feel that as the hug tightened, the person's emotions were also changing. Sometimes it was excited, sometimes it was scared, sometimes it was worried, and sometimes it was hesitant.
Angor could not decipher the exact meaning of the person's emotions. However, this change was probably the fastest among all the nightmare creatures Angor had ever met.
Yes, Angor was sure that the person was a nightmare creature. This was not good news. Since the person's emotions changed so quickly, it meant that the person was not stupid.
Angor was not sure if he could fool a highly intelligent nightmare creature.
As Angor was thinking about how to confuse his words when facing the creature, a bright light suddenly came from under his feet.
The light meant that the darkness was about to reach its end.
Next, he felt as if he had passed through a water-like barrier. When he entered the barrier, he was immediately greeted by a strong nightmare aura.
He was still descending and probably had not reached the ground yet. However, what was different from before was that his body, which seemed to have sunk into a quagmire, regained the ability to move on its own.
As soon as the shackles disappeared, he turned around to see who was hugging him from behind.
However, the nightmare creature behind him seemed to be playing a game of hide-and-seek with him. If he turned left, the nightmare creature would turn right. If he turned right, the nightmare creature would turn left.
He suddenly realized that his spirit power was no longer restricted, so he simply used it to look behind him.
However, as soon as his spirit reached out, the "person" behind him shrieked and turned into a puff of smoke before dashing away at full speed.
Angor only saw the back of a woman in a dress appearing in the distance before she disappeared.
Without the man's support, Angor quickly fell down from the sky.
When he regained his footing, he used his spirit feelers to check his surroundings. He still didn't know who hugged him, so he wanted to see if there were any remaining information.
However, there was nothing on his back.
There was nothing wrong with him either. It was as if the "person" simply brought him to this strange little garden.
He didn't even see what the "person" looked like. He only knew that it was a woman. There were very few humans among nightmare creatures. Maybe "female" was better?
Regardless of the "person"'s gender, Angor's head was full of question marks.
There was no one who could answer these questions. He sighed and decided to put them aside for now. Instead, he observed his surroundings.
At least, he needed to make sure he was safe.
The ground was moist and fertile, and there were layers of tall mushrooms around him. It looked like a mushroom forest right out of a fairy tale. However, when Angor fell from the sky, he roughly checked his surroundings. Rather than a mushroom forest, it was more like a small garden under a dome. The "flowers" here were all colorful mushrooms.
There were no other plants in the garden except for mushrooms of different sizes.
If Angor saw this outside, he would probably be surprised and do some research. But since this was the territory of nightmare creatures, a mushroom forest or a mushroom garden wasn't too surprising.
At least, Angor was not too surprised by the mushrooms in this place. He even wondered if Regina, the "mushroom lover" from the research department, would come to the ruin willingly if she knew about this mushroom garden? As far as he could see, most of the mushrooms here were strange and out of his knowledge.
Apart from the big mushrooms that looked like trees, there were also clusters of small mushrooms around the rocks. Angor didn't see any other plants.
As for danger, he didn't sense anything with his spirit feelers. However, he couldn't tell what exactly it was.
Apart from checking his surroundings, Angor also tried to sense the nightmare energy in the air. When he entered this place, he already sensed a strong nightmare energy. Now that he was here, the feeling was even stronger.
Angor could absorb a large amount of nightmare energy every time he took a breath. Through the mysterious energy, his mana whirlpool was quickly changing.
Angor believed that if he could train in this place, it would be the same as when he trained near the tunnel in Pocratee.
However, he couldn't stay here for now.
His biggest goal now was to leave the ruin and return to the real world.
As for how to leave, the first thing he thought of was to use the Gate of Illusion.
However, the Gate of Illusion couldn't be used to locate the previous tunnel.
"Judging from the concentration of nightmare energy and the fact that I can't use the Gate of Illusion to leave, I'm sure I'm inside a demiplane." Angor considered. The Gate of Illusion could only be used to travel through the same world. Demiplanes were separated by boundaries, so he couldn't use the Gate of Illusion to go through them.
In other words, he was inside the ruin. If he wanted to leave, he had to walk out of the ruin himself.
However, he didn't even know where he was. How could he leave the ruin when he didn't even know where he was?
