Inside the Astral Pool.
"What kind of magic does Angor have? How did he get out of the ruin so easily while the others all died in the end? And how did he come out unscathed? "
Wallace's murmur reached the ears of everyone in the pavilion.
It sounded like he was doubting Angor's ability, but everyone knew Wallace well enough to know that Angor wasn't colluding with the creatures in the ruin. He was just curious about how Angor did it.
"Just come out safely. Why do you care about the details?"
"I'm just curious," Wallace said.
Ness was enjoying the massage from his soul slave. Upon hearing Wallace's words, he sneered, "Then I'm curious about what's in the secret room behind the clock cabinet in the dean's office of White Gull Disciplinary Order Academy. Are you willing to satisfy my curiosity?"
Wallace, who had been glaring at Ness, fell silent when he heard Ness's words.
Wallace didn't want to talk to someone as shameless as Ness. He thought for a moment and looked at Iron Granny, who was enjoying her rose tea. "Aren't you curious, Granny?"
Iron Granny was still savoring the aftertaste of her rose tea. She didn't answer Wallace's question.
On the other hand, the witch sitting across from Iron Granny said, "I think Ness is right. It's not important. What's important is that he came back safely and passed Rein's detection."
Wallace glanced at Leona, who was still surrounded by rose illusions. "I didn't say anything about Angor. I'm just thinking that if his method can be popularized —"
Before Wallace could finish, Iron Granny interjected. "Angor will never hesitate to share his knowledge if he can help us promote it. Since he didn't, it means it can't be used widely. You can be curious, but don't think too much about it. The more you think about it, the more likely you'll lose him. "
Wallace knew what Iron Granny was trying to say. Angor's secret might be involved. Almost everyone in the Magus World had their own secrets. If one were to delve too deeply into it, it would indeed lead to alienation.
"Angor isn't here. That's why I'm asking." Wallace sighed. "Never mind. Let's not talk about it."
Wallace didn't say anything else, but Ness said, "Do you know of any spell in the Dream System that allows communication in dreams?"
Though Ness didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew that he was talking about the dream communication between Sunders and Angor.
Because it was just a discussion and no secrets were asked, no one kept quiet.
"As far as I know, there is no direct dream connection spell, but there is a related spell called Dream Message." The one who spoke was Wallace. As the representative of the academic sorcerers, he might be weaker than the combat sorcerers, but in terms of academic theory, he had a very deep foundation.
"Dream-Message is one of the entry-level tricks of the Dream School. The spellcaster could transmit some information to the sleeping person. However, there are two prerequisites. First, the person who is asleep must be dreaming. Otherwise, the message won't be received. Second, the spellcaster and the subject must be very close to each other. The spellcaster can't be more than 100 meters away from the subject. Otherwise, it will lose its effect. "
Leona nodded. "I've heard of this cantrip before. It's said that it originated from an ancient evil play. It's a way for the dead to communicate with the living in their dreams. But this Dream-Message is one-way, and there's a limit to the distance. It can't be cast from a long distance, and it can't break through space. "
In other words, Sunders didn't use this Dream-Message to communicate with Angor.
"Other than the Dream Message Technique, there's nothing else. Even if there is, it's still a one-way communication. "
This was because the Dream Realm was so vast that it was boundless. It had truly achieved the concept of "as wide as one's dream could be." In such a big Dream World, even if two people slept on the same bed, their dreams would be completely different. How could they connect?
Everyone knew this. The Dream Realm was too big, and everyone's dreams were different. It was impossible to pinpoint the exact location. But reality told them that someone did it.
Sunders and Angor must have contacted each other.
During the time when Angor was trapped in the ruin, Sunders never left their sight. The only strange thing he did was to enter Angor's dreams. When he woke up, he told them about Angor's whereabouts. After that, Sunders also entered Angor's dreams several times, and he didn't hide the fact that he was communicating with Angor in his dreams.
Since they saw it with their own eyes, they became even more suspicious.
"Maybe it's a new spell?" Ness asked.
"Both Sunders and Angor are Illusionists. If they created a new Dream-Type spell that can locate a target in a dream, every Dream-Manipulator from ancient times to modern times would be ashamed to death," Wallace said.
That being said, other than creating a new spell, they couldn't think of any other answer. The only way to find out the truth was to ask Sunders about it.
Since Sunders didn't say anything before, it meant that he didn't want to talk about it. If they asked Sunders, they would probably get the same answer as Iron Granny: the more they tried to find out, the more confused they would become.
"It seems that this is yet another unsolvable problem," Ness said.
While everyone was sighing helplessly, the Wall of Congealing Light that surrounded the Star Pond Ruins suddenly flickered with a bright and beautiful light.
At the same time, the Magi in the Wall of Light felt a stagnant force.
It was as if there was an additional binding force in the surrounding space, causing them to be more sluggish and even stagnant when they used their mana and mental strength.
"The Wall of Light is strengthened again," Wallace said.
"The inside of the Wall of Light is almost a foreign land. Even the laws are affected." Iron Granny looked outside the observation pavilion and saw Rein putting on a pair of gloves. "You're closer to the final step."
When Rhine, who had just walked into the observation pavilion, heard this, there was no joy in his eyes. Instead, there was a flash of sadness. "No matter what, I'm still one step away."
Rein shook his head and changed the topic. "I've strengthened the Wall of Light. I'll go see Angor later. Please take care of the ruin for now, Granny."
"Sure." Iron Granny nodded.
Rein turned around and prepared to leave. He completely ignored Ness' call. "Take me with you. I want to go too."
Rein heard Ness' call, but he still ignored it. It wasn't that he didn't want to take Ness with him. It was just that the ruin might involve some secrets. The more secrets one knew, the more dangerous it would be.
Also, Ness's personality was too fickle, and his mind was not firm enough. He was not suitable to know these secrets. If it were Iron Granny or Leona, Rein would probably agree.
