The clear blue sky was reflected in the Astral Pond during daytime, which made it look like a mirror of the sky.
It was a pity that the Magi guarding the Celestial Pool had no way of appreciating such a beautiful scene.
"You're awake?" Inside the observation pavilion, Iron Granny put down the crushed tea powder and looked at Sunders, who had just woken up from a deep sleep.
Sunders opened his eyes with a serious expression. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Your student is missing, and you're still in the mood to rest? You even used Dream Walk to help you sleep. You're so brave. I'm not as brave as you are," a gray-haired old man spoke in a mocking tone.
No one in Brute Cavern would dare to make fun of Phantom Master other than Sunders' old friend, Ness.
"Your student was killed, and you didn't do anything about it," Sunders replied in a plain tone.
Sunders was referring to Hookdick's death. Ness knew what Sunders meant, but he didn't seem to care. "Hookdick deserved it. I gave him a chance to live, but he didn't take it. He has no one to blame but himself. Let's get back to Angor. Aren't you worried about him at all? "
"Of course I'm worried about him. His situation …" Sunders considered.
Before he could finish, Sunders suddenly stopped and looked toward the center of the Astral Pond. A misty figure emerged from the passage of the ruins. Under the dazzling sunlight, it slowly formed a tall and straight figure.
"Mister Rein is here!" It was "Fire Walker" Filo. He had been feeling down ever since he learned that the red-haired man was Angor. Rein's return was the only good news they received in the last few hours.
After Rhine appeared, everyone immediately gathered over.
Rein didn't seem to be injured. However, he was staring at the passage under the Astral Pond with a serious expression as if he was in a standoff with someone. However, when everyone followed Rhine's gaze and looked at the passage, they saw that it was still an empty corridor. There were no creatures at all.
"Mister Rein, what's with that invisible creature? Is he outside the passage?" Wallace stared at the empty passage, wondering if an invisible creature had come out and was confronting Rhine.
"I don't think so. I only talked to it briefly, and it somehow returned to the ruin on its own," Rein said.
Seeing the creature leave, Rhine let out a sigh of relief. The power of the invisible creature wearing leather shoes was something Rhine had never seen in his life. The creature was almost as strong as Rein himself. In other words, the creature was at least a level-3 truth-finder wizard.
In the face of such a powerful enemy, Rhine did not dare to fight with his full strength. He could only wander around the edge, trying to gain information through conversations while trying to control the battlefield in this tunnel. This was because only in this "fragile" tunnel would there be a chance to limit the enemy's strength.
Later on, the other party mysteriously retreated. Although Rhine felt that it was very strange, it did make him feel a little more relaxed.
"I originally wanted to get some information from it, but that fellow is very strange. Its words and actions are very absurd, so I didn't get any useful information … However, from its character, it shouldn't have taken off its clothes and hat and secretly come to the outside of the passage in a completely invisible state. I think it should have really returned to the ruins." Rhine sighed. Only then did he move his gaze away from the passage and look at everyone.
With this look, Rhine suddenly realized that something was wrong. "Eh, where is he?"
Rein didn't mention Angor's name even though Iron Granny and Wallace already knew who he was. He only used "him" as a substitute.
Rein noticed that everyone's expressions changed. Even Iron Granny's eyes dimmed a little. He had a bad feeling about this.
"Angor … went missing," Sunders broke the silence.
"Angor is missing? What's going on? "Although Rhine's voice sounded very calm, the aura on his body suddenly changed. Angor was a key figure in Brute Cavern's future plans, and Rein valued him greatly. Now that Angor was missing, Rein couldn't help but feel anxious.
"Let me explain. Here's what happened …" Iron Granny began to explain what happened.
Rein didn't say anything. He went back into the passage and sensed the wall where Angor disappeared. Then he returned to the Astral Pool and shook his head.
Ten minutes later, everyone in the observation pavilion looked serious.
"It's an accident. I didn't expect Angor to run into a Void Traveler at the last moment." Wallace shook his head and sighed. "Sunders mentioned that the Voidwalkers might not be on the same side as the creatures in the ruin. But is it really so coincidental that Angor went missing because of them? I think Sunders made a mistake. They might be on the same side. It's just that their auras are different. "
Iron Granny glanced at Wallace. "It's possible. But Sunders knows more about nightmare creatures than you do."
"It's already happened, so we don't need to worry about the details." Rein gestured for the others to stop arguing. "What's more important now is where Angor is, and how can we save him?"
Indeed, it wasn't the right time to look into the details. Everyone knew how important Angor was to Brute Cavern. Saving him was their top priority right now.
"I'll go to Starliege Church. Stargazing Day isn't over yet, and most of the observers are still there. I can contact some of them and ask them for help," said Wallace. He often disagreed with Sunders, but it was only because of different ideas. Wallace knew what he should do and what he shouldn't do in the grand scheme of Brute Cavern.
"Even the observers can't do anything when it comes to this ruin." Rein shook his head.
"Besides, Angor has an item that prevents prophecies from working on him," Iron Granny added. "Unless we have a Mystery item with the power of prophecy, we won't be able to find Angor's whereabouts."
However, such Mystery items were rare. They only knew about the Mystery of the Stars, which could only be opened once every half a year. Stargazing Day had just ended, and the Mystery of the Stars couldn't be reopened just yet. Therefore, prophecy was a difficult option.
But what else could they do if they couldn't find Angor through prophecy? Even if they forced their way into the ruin, they wouldn't be able to locate Angor quickly and take him away without knowing where he was.
Everyone fell into silence.
