Right in front of Angor's eyes, another one of the wild mushrooms appeared on the back of Reeves' right hand.
Apart from the strange soul form, Reeves' emotions were also abnormal.
Normally speaking, only when a soul had fallen into an undead creature that only knew how to kill would it release such strong evil thoughts. But now, Angor could clearly sense that Leavis had not yet fallen into an undead creature, but he was already giving off negative emotions.
His pale eyes glowed with a dark green light and were filled with malice as if he wanted to devour someone.
Angor narrowed his eyes. As Reeves said, Mystic Gems not only controlled people's bodies when they were alive, but also their souls after they died.
As far as Angor knew, Soul Zones existed in a higher dimension.
The fact that Mystic Gems could affect Soul Zones and contaminate souls was already beyond Angor's knowledge.
Angor remembered Blair saying that "Mystic Gems are Mister Nuka's masterpiece", and this "Mister Nuka" was Mystic Gems' superior.
Mister Nuka must be someone powerful to be able to create something as terrifying as Mystic Gems. Angor even wondered if Mister Nuka was the minister who came to this ruin.
Unfortunately, Reeves did not have any information about Nuka.
Angor focused on the strange soul in front of him again. Judging from the green light in Reeves' eyes and the mushrooms that kept popping out of his body, Angor guessed that the green mist existed in Reeves' soul as well.
Angor looked at the three larvae of Mystic Gems that had returned to his shoes and gave them an emotional command.
He wanted to see if he could get the Bewildering Luster Larva to absorb the green mist from Reeves' soul.
Reeves' soul form was still not liked by the little creatures. However, since it was Angor's command, they reluctantly jumped down from Reeves' shoes and hopped toward him.
However, when the larvae were about to reach Reeves, Reeves suddenly let out a terrifying roar as if he had gone mad.
Soul Howl!
The larvae did not expect to be attacked so suddenly and were instantly stunned. Their tiny mushroom cap spun several times on the ground and was about to fall.
Angor also did not expect Reeves to use a common soul skill right after turning into a soul form: Howl.
Although it was called a howl, it was actually a kind of soul frequency resonance. Through a special soul frequency, it affected spiritual creatures. Generally speaking, the more experienced a soul was, the more terrifying its soul howl would be.
Reeves' Spirit Howl could only be considered average. It might be useful against acolytes, but it had no effect on official Magi. Even if his Soul Howl was ten times louder, it would still be useless against someone like Angor.
Reeves thought his ambush only stunned the larva, but Angor was completely unharmed. Angor even used the aura of a formal wizard to suppress Reeves' soul and make him unable to move.
The three little fellows, who had been stunned for a few seconds, also regained their senses. Angor sensed anger from them. Perhaps they were unwilling to accept the fact that they had been tricked, so they rushed to Reeves' spirit body without hesitation. They opened their pink mouths and bit down on Reeves' spirit body.
A moment later, the little ones jumped down from Reeves' spiritual body and looked at Angor in bewilderment.
He didn't need them to tell him that they didn't absorb the green mist. Reeves' spirit body was still intact, and there were still mushrooms trying to come out.
"You can't absorb it?" Angor tried to convey his emotions.
Unfortunately, the larva's intelligence was too low, and they couldn't express their thoughts completely. Angor only managed to decipher the scattered emotions. "It appeared, then disappeared. It appeared again, then disappeared again …"
Angor considered. If the larva bit Reeves' spirit body, it meant that they sensed the green mist in his soul. Otherwise, they would directly tell Angor that they couldn't absorb it.
If there was green mist in Reeves' spirit body, why couldn't the larva absorb it?
Was it because it appeared one second and disappeared the next?
Angor tried to recall the previous scene. Before the larva bit Reeves' spirit body, there was a faint green light in his eyes. But after the bite, the green light disappeared. Maybe the green mist knew that the larva wanted to absorb it, so it hid on its own?
If this was the answer, was there a way to prevent the green mist from hiding?
Angor thought for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer. After all, he didn't know much about Reeves. Most of his knowledge came from Reeves' description. However, in Reeves' explanation, there was no mention of the lustrous green fog concealing them.
Maybe this was a special ability of the green mist that lived inside the spirit body?
If that was the case, it would be difficult to solve the problem.
Angor sighed. Maybe I should take this mutated soul with me and ask someone else later? Isn't Ness outside the Astral Pool? He's a Soul Wizard. Maybe he knows something?
According to common sense, this was actually a relatively good choice. However, when he saw Reeves' spirit body continuously releasing mushrooms, Angor suddenly thought of a word he read in the mushroom forum: "terminal stage."
When Reeves was still alive, he was controlled by Reeves to the terminal stage. There was no way to save him, and the only way was to die.
The only thing left of him was his soul, which was still "mushroomizing".
Was it possible that when Reeves' spirit body was completely "mushroomized", it would also reach the "terminal stage" of his soul, where his spirit body would eventually disappear and become nutrients for the spirit garden?
It was only a guess, but Angor's instinct told him that it might be true.
Angor didn't have much to do with Reeves, and Reeves' spirit had nothing to do with him either. However, if there was a way to save Reeves' spirit, Angor was willing to try.
If there was no way to get rid of the green mist, Angor would choose to give up.
With this in mind, Angor decided to calm down and think carefully about whether there was a way to save Reeves' spirit from being taken over by Reeves.
Time ticked away. Reeves was still unable to move due to the pressure. However, the mushrooms on his body kept popping up. There were already nine mushrooms so far.
At this rate, Angor estimated that Reeves would be covered in mushrooms in less than a day.
Angor thought for a long time but still couldn't come up with a solution. He decided to observe Reeves again.
As he stared at the unmoving soul in front of him, he suddenly had an idea.
If he wanted to let the little guys absorb the green mist, he had to make sure that the green mist couldn't be avoided. Angor had an idea on how to prevent the green mist from getting away.
Maybe he could try using the power of his right eye?
