Tree Spirit was also curious about the Mother Tree Network.
Angor took Tree Spirit back to Foundation City and introduced Jon to him.
Chown's unique temperament and unique way of thinking quickly attracted Tree Spirit's attention, and they began to talk. Tree Spirit was also looking forward to learning more about the Mother Tree Network.
Angor did not participate in the rest of the discussion.
He believed that Tree Spirit would be able to see the potential of the Mother Tree Network as soon as Tree Spirit saw it.
If Tree Spirit was interested in the Mother Tree Network and was willing to study it together with Jon, Angor could give Tree Spirit the "tree civilization" authority when they reached a bottleneck and needed a higher authority.
Angor did not know if things would go as smoothly as he imagined. But he had to give it a try no matter what.
With that done, he returned to reality.
Next, he focused all his energy on deciphering the runes on the knight's armor.
Time flew by. The night sky was torn apart by the morning stars. A sudden snowfall heralded the arrival of a new day.
At this time, Rhine also returned to the ruins.
"I went to see Dumartin. He doesn't know much about fungi, but he did study the bloodline of parasites before. He knows something about fungi, so he can try to study Mystic Gems." Rein paused. "But I thought about it and refused."
Angor agreed with Rein's decision.
Any other wizard would probably say the same thing to Dumartin, even if they never studied fungi. Even if they couldn't, they would still say that they could. If they couldn't, they had to create the conditions to do so.
It would be fine if he was researching other things, but he couldn't do it with bewilderment. Besides, Mystic Gems could threaten the survival of Brute Cavern at any time. They didn't have much time left.
They couldn't just give it to a random person.
More importantly, Angor didn't have many Mystic Gems with him. He couldn't afford to waste them.
"Don't worry, Mister Rein. I've contacted Mushroom Witch. She's on her way to Brute Cavern and will arrive soon."
When Rhine heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. According to Rhine, the Mushroom Witch of the Research and Development Institute was probably the most knowledgeable about mushrooms in the Southern Region.
It was the best choice for her to lead the research on Bewitching Pearls.
Next, he told Rein about Regina's arrival.
Rein agreed with Angor's decision to keep Regina in the lower level of the ruin. First of all, Mystic Gems were rare and valuable, so Angor could keep an eye on them and prevent Regina from taking them away. Second, Mystic Gems were also dangerous. Since the ruin was isolated from the outside world, Angor could not guarantee their safety. Most importantly, Mystic Gems were born to be close to Angor. With Angor around, Mystic Gems could prevent them from going on a rampage.
Rein agreed to Regina's request, but he also added some details that Angor didn't expect.
For example, Regina was all by herself, and she would need assistants, which Rein would take care of. Also, the research would require a lot of materials. Regina was here to help them, so they couldn't ask her to pay for the materials, nor could they ask Angor to pay for them. Finding Mystic Gems was related to the safety of the entire Brute Cavern. Therefore, Rein agreed to provide Angor with an unlimited amount of resources.
With all the details settled, the research on Mystic Gems came to an end. All that was left was to wait for Regina to take over.
Next, Rein and Angor talked about other topics related to the dream wasteland.
Angor was more than happy to talk about the development of the dream wasteland since he needed Rein's support.
Most of the time, Rein and Angor talked about the construction of the new city.
Rein fully acknowledged the great potential of the dream wasteland. He also knew that once the dream wasteland was opened to the public, it would attract a large number of supernaturals in the future. At that time, a gathering place for superhumans would be able to show its value.
Foundation City was a mortal city, which wasn't very attractive to supernaturals. As for the new city, it was a city that only belonged to supernaturals, which intrigued Rein a lot.
The construction of the new city required a lot of manpower, and Rein was sure to help. Therefore, Angor didn't hide anything from Rein and told Rein everything he could about the new city.
Rein also praised the details such as daily life, social life, private communication, and guilds.
However, even though the details were designed in a very humane manner and did not seem to be out of the ordinary, they were still just details in the end. What was most realistic and gave people the most direct feeling was still the appearance of the new city.
Rein was a little worried. If the new city looked exactly like Foundation City, it wouldn't be very attractive.
Angor was already immune to all the complaints about the design of Foundation City. He simply ignored Rein's comment and nodded. "Since you're curious, Mister Rein, why don't you come with me to meet the designer? He has the blueprints as well. "
Rein didn't refuse and prepared to put on his monocle.
However, just as they were about to enter the dream wasteland, a series of loud bangs echoed in the study.
Rein was already familiar with the voice. He quickly glanced at Angor's pocket.
Angor took out the button of the silver gear, which was now giving off a flickering light. Clearly, it was the mini signal tower.
Angor was already familiar with the process of installing a mini signal tower. It only took a few seconds for the tower to be placed in front of them.
He thought it was a message from Floating Mech City, but after a quick check, he realized it wasn't from Signal Tower 1.
He looked at Rein and said, "It's from Starliege Church."
Rein was considering whether he should leave or not, but he calmed down after hearing Angor's words.
Since it was from Starliege Church, it had to be Maya.
Sure enough, when the light screen was connected, the face that appeared was that of the white-haired Witch Maya.
Maya was a little surprised when she saw Angor's face on the screen. After a while, she sighed in relief. "Finally, it's connected."
She had been trying to contact Angor for the past few days, but Angor's signal tower never responded. Maya even thought that Brute Cavern was in danger, so she bought some special casting materials and prepared to use them to find out what was going on.
However, before she could do that, she finally got a response from Angor's signal tower.
Angor exchanged a look with Rein, who nodded at him. "I went to the Astral Pool Ruin a few days ago. The ruin is isolated from the outside world, so I couldn't receive any signals from the outside world. I just came back yesterday. "
Maya's eyes widened when she heard Angor's words.
Angor went to the ruin? And for several days?! Although this sentence might sound ordinary to outsiders, Maya knew very well how dangerous the ruins were!
It devoured a large number of wizards, and no one had ever returned from it. But Angor went in and came back safely!
What exactly happened here? Why did it feel like a lot of things had changed in just a few days of not seeing each other? And why did Angor go to the ruin?
Maya had so many questions in mind, but she didn't ask them right away. She knew that Angor would tell her everything if he wanted to. And if he didn't, he must have his reasons.
"How many days until the meeting ends?" Angor asked.
"The Stargazing Day's meeting is coming to an end," Maya said. "There aren't any major prophecies these days. Many wizards have left, and I can leave whenever I want."
"Good. I'll tell you more about the ruin when you come back," Angor said.
Maya nodded. She was curious, but as an experienced wizard, she knew how to keep her emotions in check.
After a pause, Maya asked, "Do we need to tell Tuvalu about this?"
Tuvaru was a Prophet from Song of the Deep, and many wizards from Song of the Deep got lost in the ruin. He would never give up on the quest.
If Angor went to the ruin and came back safely, he must have obtained a lot of information from the ruin.
Maya wondered if she should share the information with Tuvaru, who was still in Starliege Church.
Angor considered for a moment and talked to Rein in a low voice.
What happened in the ruin was very complicated, and it was related to a great plan of the Nightmare Realm. Angor was hesitant to tell Rein about it.
Rhine pondered for a moment. "You can tell him, but you don't have to tell him the details of your experience. I believe you can control yourself better than I can."
Angor nodded. He couldn't tell Rein anything related to "Shava". He also had to keep his conversation with the nightmare creature a secret. As for the details of the ruin, such as the identity and strength of the nightmare creature, he could tell Rein about it.
With that in mind, he nodded to Maya. "Sure."
Maya also heard their conversation and sighed in relief. She didn't see anything about the ruin during the Stargazing Day. Tuvaru did see something and told Maya about it. In exchange, Maya agreed to share the information with Tuvaru.
The ruin didn't only devour wizards from Song of the Deep. Brute Cavern also lost many wizards, and the ruin was located within Brute Cavern's territory. If they wanted to find out more about the ruin and save the fallen wizards, it would be best if they could work together.
Maya wouldn't mind if she didn't know what happened today. But if Tuvaru, who was a master of the Wheel of Fate, found out about it, she would feel embarrassed.
Since Rein was willing to share the information, Maya didn't have to lie.
At this moment, Rhine added, "Although I can tell you, you have to tell Tuvalu first. If he wants to know the details, get the Sea God to contact me."
Angor didn't know what kind of trouble Xinnai's arrival would cause. However, this was a very important matter, and Angor had to talk to the higher-ups first.
Song of the Deep had a lot of internal conflicts. Some of them were even working with foreign gods. The only one Angor trusted was Flunza.
Although Rhine didn't like Flunza's personality, at least Flunza and the Song of the Deep faction behind him weren't traitors to the southern wizarding world.
Maya nodded. "I'll tell Tuvaru about it."
Maya looked calm on the surface, but her mind was in turmoil. He couldn't even tell Tuwalu about it. He had to talk to the higher-ups first, which meant the situation inside the ruin was not as simple as it seemed. Angor's information would probably become a huge bombshell.
Rein looked at Maya on the other side of the screen. "Are there any other prophecies?"
Maya nodded. "A few. But none of them are too important."
Still, Maya told Rein about all the prophecies she had heard. As Maya said, these prophecies didn't affect Brute Cavern much. Only two of them might affect Brute Cavern to a certain extent.
First, there might be a power struggle within the royal family of Yali Duchy, which might even lead to a large-scale rebellion. Yali Duchy was close to Parmigi Highlands. If a civil war broke out, the refugees would probably rush there.
But now, Parmigi Highlands was within the range of the Lifeline. If the refugees were infected by the Lifeline and spread it to other countries, it would lead to a large number of deaths.
Even the wizarding world would try their best to prevent such a thing.
However, if they wanted to solve this problem, they would have to deal with the royal family, which was something wizards didn't want to get involved in.
Rein was a little hesitant.
However, Maya's next sentence dispelled his doubts. "The reason why there is a power struggle in the Yali Duchy is not because of man-made disasters."
According to the prophecy, the young and powerful king of Yali Duchy went north to Muyang County for the sake of the people. In Muyang County, he ran into a group of awakened undead creatures and lost part of his soul, which caused him to lose consciousness and lose his ability to govern.
Since he didn't have any children, many princes coveted the throne and caused trouble for the royal family.
Rein no longer hesitated after hearing the prophecy. Since it wasn't caused by humans but undead creatures, he didn't have to worry about anything. He could just kill the undead creatures to prevent future troubles.
Of course, Rein didn't need to do it himself. He just needed to post the quest in the questing hall, and someone would accept it.
There was another prophecy that might affect Brute Cavern.
This prophecy was about the Goman Kingdom.
