Angor turned off the screen, and the noise in the study quickly disappeared.
"Regina is just like the rumors. She's really obsessed with mushrooms," Sunders said in a low voice. Sunders' low voice came from the other side. When Angor contacted Regina using the mini signal tower, Sunders didn't leave. He only spoke after Angor put away the mini signal tower.
"When I went to Elixir Hut to look for Master Mithra, Lady Yeliya told me a rumor. She said that the Mushroom Witch lived alone in a small house made of mushrooms since she was born. She was raised by a spirit living in the mushroom house, and her love for mushrooms was engraved in her bones." "I don't know if it's true or not, but Regina will do anything for an unknown mushroom she's never seen before."
Sunders nodded and recalled the scene he saw earlier.
When Regina learned that the living thread came from a mushroom called Phantom, she showed great interest in it. She kept mumbling and guessing what kind of mushroom could create the illusion.
When Angor took out the Phantom Larva, Regina immediately jumped up from her chair. Her face was almost glued to the screen as if it was a flatbread.
She was surprised at first when she realized that the illusion was a type of mushroom she had never seen before. But when she regained her composure, she agreed to join Angor's research without hesitation. She promised to study the illusion thoroughly. Moreover, this time, Regina didn't mention any "high reward" at all. For someone like her who was crazy about mushrooms, she was delighted to see them. Even if there was no reward, she was willing to pay.
Regina quickly urged Angor to send someone to send the mushroom back to the research department. She couldn't wait to start her research.
Of course, Angor didn't come to Regina for Phantom. Phantom was only a bait to test Regina's attitude and to get to the real topic.
Seeing Regina's enthusiasm, Angor explained his main purpose and showed Mystic Gem, who was still alive on his palm, to the screen.
Regina looked at Bewitching Yingying on the screen, and her eyes instantly froze. Her gaze followed Bewitching Yingying's young body, and her entire person seemed to be slightly intoxicated.
When Angor put the larvae away, Regina finally regained her senses.
An even greater excitement than before slowly arose in Regina's heart. But before she could express her excitement, Regina's gaze suddenly fell upon a corner of the screen on the other side.
"I think I saw a pure white mushroom on your side, right? What kind of mushroom is that?! "
The white mushroom was a Sound Transmission Mushroom. It was placed on the other side of the desk. Sunders gently pushed it into the visible range of the screen so that Regina noticed it.
After seeing the Hallucination Mushroom, Bewitching Mushroom, and Voice Transmission Mushroom, which she had never seen before and which had special effects, Regina's emotions were completely out of control.
The genuine desire that flowed out from the bottom of his eyes was completely undisguised.
Regina didn't ask Angor to send the mushrooms to the research department this time. she made her decision. "I'll pack everything I need and go to Brute Cavern right now!"
Regina's decision might seem hasty, but she had thought it through carefully. If Angor could take out three special mushrooms so easily, he must have gone to some strange mushroom farm. Maybe he had more. She had to meet Angor in person to get the information. Also, Leona from Brute Cavern would be hosting a tea party soon. No matter how much of a shut-in she was, she would still attend such a gathering. She had to go to Brute Cavern sooner or later. At least she could study the unknown mushrooms as soon as possible.
"Regina will arrive at Brute Cavern in no time. Have you thought about what to do? "
Angor put away the button with the mini signal tower and said, "Let's do it here. The lab is a bit messy, but it's big enough. She should be able to do whatever she wants if she tidies it up a little. If she doesn't like the environment, we'll create an illusion. "
Just like the Golden Sea in the Clouds.
The reason for this arrangement was because Regina's research target was Mystic Ying. Phantom might look cute and playful now, but it was still a terrifying biological weapon created for the purpose of conquering and invading.
Once Phantom's green mist drifted out, it could cause serious trouble in the future. Besides, Regina seemed to be quite interested in Phantom as well. Phantom was also a deadly weapon. Even if Angor could find a way to contain it, it was better not to let it go. Therefore, it was better to study it in a completely enclosed place. Ruins were the best choice.
Sunders didn't mind this arrangement. However, he still reminded Angor about some details. Before Regina touched Phantom or Phantom, she must sign a Tarot Contract to prevent Regina from secretly taking the mycelium out of the lab. After all, regardless of whether it was Bewilderment or Hallucination, even if both sides would be injured, they were still terrifying weapons of mass destruction. If Regina took them away, they would be used as a tool for those with ulterior motives.
Of course, Angor knew what to do, so he nodded in agreement.
Next, Sunders mentioned Portia. "About her request, you can try to help her. But try not to get involved if you can."
Angor nodded. He knew what Portia wanted to do, and it was a very dangerous thing.
After talking with Regina, Angor went to talk with Portia.
As Portia said, she had something she wanted to discuss with Angor. Angor guessed that it had something to do with enchantment.
As he expected, Portia wanted to know if there was a magic array that could convert life into matter in the field of enchantment.
Angor didn't know what Portia was trying to do. "I don't know yet. I need to look it up."
Portia nodded and said that she would find Angor during the tea party. She hoped that Angor could help her find such a magic array.
After ending the call, Angor suddenly remembered how Granny Fingernail told him some of her impressions about the members of the research department so that Angor could join them faster. When talking about Portia, Granny Fingernail spoke highly of her.
Portia was a true genius alchemist. Her ideas were bold and unconstrained. Although the things she put into practice were strange, even if they were failures, there was still a trace of spirituality that couldn't be concealed.
Granny Fingernail even said that she saw Ivo in Portia.
Before Angor joined the department, Portia was definitely the alchemist who was closest to reaching Mystery realm.
Granny Fingernail spoke highly of Portia's character and alchemy skills. However, she hesitated a little when talking about one thing.
"Just like Ivo, Portia went astray in order to find Mystery. I heard that she's planning to join the field of life alchemy. "
Life alchemy was different from bio-alchemy.
Although bio-alchemy sounded a little scary, it was actually a rigorous subject. Life alchemy, on the other hand, was different. It involved human relationships.
Bio-Alchemy focused on modification, while life alchemy focused on creation.
The creation of life was a dangerous and forbidden area, while the creation of intelligent life was absolutely forbidden. Because of this, Toby's birth was a miracle that could not be replicated until now. This was also why Greya loved Toby so much.
Granny Fingernail told Angor that if Portia really wanted to join the field of life alchemy, she must be hoping to find a magic array that could help her with her work.
Regardless of whether this was true or not, Angor decided to avoid it as much as possible.
As Sunders said, Angor could help with the search, but he could not get involved. If Portia really did step into the forbidden area, Angor would be dragged into the mess as well.
He would not end well if he got involved.
Seeing that Angor understood, Sunders decided not to say more. Then, he changed the topic and asked, "Speaking of what happened in the ruins, you should still be hiding something from His Excellency Rhine, right?"
Angor nodded. There were some things he couldn't talk about in the dream wasteland at the right time, so he decided to keep it a secret for now.
But now, it was just him and Sunders, so he did not need to hide anything.
Next, he told them everything he wanted to know, including the invitation to the Moon Sacrifice Day banquet, Spotted Puppy, Boiling Gentleman's lab, and several unknown mushrooms that he had yet to talk about.
After listening to Angor's explanation, Sunders had a clear answer to his question.
"No wonder you were able to stay calm in the face of so many powerful creatures, and even resisted Minister Nuka's aura. So Spotted Puppy came out of nowhere and helped you," Sunders said.
"You're right. If it wasn't for Spotted Puppy, I would've been exposed as soon as Minister Nuka showed up."
"Although I don't know why the Dalmatian would come to the Heart's Place, it was all thanks to its help this time that we barely managed to deal with it. Because of this, even though I covet the Light Solvent that Boiling Gentleman mentioned, without a way to resist the pressure, I dare not enter again, let alone participate in the Moon Worship Day banquet. "
Sunders nodded. Angor was lucky this time, but it did not mean he could do it again. Sunders agreed with Angor's decision.
"You made the right choice by leaving without Spotted Puppy. The Minister of Agriculture was already so terrifying. Tim, who was titled as the Minister of Weapons, must be even scarier. If Tim really came to the southern wizarding region because of Spotted Puppy, he might cause a disaster similar to the arrival of a demon god. "
They must have suppressed their power in the demiplane. Once they fully unleashed their power and invaded the southern wizarding region, even if the world's consciousness would expel them, they would still be able to turn the world upside down.
Therefore, it was best not to provoke such powerful creatures.
"But Spotted Puppy came at such a perfect time," Sunders muttered. "Based on what you said, it didn't do much after it arrived."
Sunders could only guess that Spotted Puppy came to the southern wizarding region to see Angor.
However, when Angor was dragged into the spirit garden by Mystic Lady, Spotted Puppy already came out of the outpost. How did it know Angor was coming?
Could it be that this living Mystery creature had the ability to predict the future?
Sunders couldn't answer this question because there was no proof.
Apart from meeting Angor, the puppy also did something else that made people curious. It seemed to be very interested in the fat version of the Void Traveler. But after it got the Void Traveler in the birdcage, it let it go.
Sunders found the series of actions unnecessary and strange.
Could it be that the purpose of its descent was actually this Void Traveler?
Unfortunately, it was hard to find an answer. Sunders could only shake his head and give up.
Apart from Spotted Puppy, Sunders was more interested in the things Angor brought back from the ruin, whether it was the mushrooms or the spawn of the Distorted Seed.
These "souvenirs" were all useful, but he didn't have time to study them right now. What he wanted to do now was to open the hidden room of the ruin and see what secrets were hidden inside.
Seeing that Sunders was interested in them, Angor took them out and let Sunders study them.
As for Angor, he took out a knight armor with broken runes on it and began to repair it.
…
Time flew. When the midnight bell rang, Angor finally came back to his senses from the rune repair.
He rubbed his sore neck and looked at the knight armor in his hand.
He knew that the runes were encrypted using Winlens Sequencing and White Crystal Card, so it was much easier for him to repair them.
In half a day, he managed to repair about one-fiftieth of the runes.
It seemed slower than he expected, but in fact, the more complete the runes were, the faster they would be repaired. When he reached the later stage, he would be able to repair them much faster than now. He should be able to repair the damaged magic patterns on the knight's armor within a week … or even less than a week!
Satisfied, he put the armor aside. He still had other things to do, so he would put the repair work aside for now.
He looked around and didn't see anyone else in the study.
Using his spirit feelers, Angor sensed that someone was in the lab below. Sunders must have taken the mushrooms and the Distorted Seed to do some experiments.
Angor was going to the lab as well, so he stretched his body and slowly left the study to head downstairs.
