Rein didn't comment on Tree Spirit's behavior.
Angor was the one who found the hidden room, and it was all thanks to Angor's Forcefield that Tree Spirit was able to enter. Even according to the Kurna Contract, which was the most common method used by adventurers, Angor should get the biggest share of the loot.
Therefore, Rein didn't mind giving the teleportation array to Angor. Besides, it was useless for the others. Angor was the only one who could use the teleportation array without being affected by the Light of Nightmare.
Angor didn't refuse. The teleportation array was a great resource for him. At least, he could save on the cost of using a plane passageway whenever he wanted to return.
When Angor accepted the item, Rein said, "When you have time, I'll take you to test the maximum range of this item."
Angor nodded. If it was possible to teleport between planes, just like Tree Spirit said, it would become a great tool for war.
For example, when it came to smuggling resources from other worlds, it was definitely a great weapon. Otherworldly resources, be it living creatures or magical materials, were all valuable. Unfortunately, the Supreme Cult always controlled the portals, so it wasn't easy to smuggle them out.
Of course, Rein could create a plane passageway, but the cost was too expensive.
Therefore, even if Angor was the only one who could use the array, it wouldn't affect the value of the array too much. In the worst case, Rein could lend Angor a Sorcerer's Garden. Anyone who wanted to use the array could hide in the garden.
Rein glanced at the teleportation array in the cage and said to Angor, "I've shut down the teleportation array to the Astral Ruin, but it doesn't stop the teleportation array. That alchemist named Kulori might still use the array to return to the Astral Ruin."
"If you want to stay in the ruin, you must keep an eye out for the location of the array at all times. If he does come to the ruin, you must drop the array immediately and leave through a plane passageway. "
Angor could tell from Cuolo's Chronicles that Cuolo was a law-abiding person. However, even a law-abiding wizard wouldn't be happy to see his lab being broken into. Even if it was an abandoned laboratory.
As a Magus, one should never place one's life in the hands of others. So, just in case, if Cuolo really did return, it was best not to bet on whether he would be merciful or not. Leaving quickly was the best strategy.
"I understand." "As long as I'm still here, I'll sense the location of the teleportation array at a fixed time."
"It's good that you understand." Rhine paused for a moment and looked around at the places that were still covered by the red light. "Since the hidden danger of the teleportation portal has been resolved for the time being, let's continue to explore the other parts of the room and see if there are any other clues. At the same time, we can also check for dangers."
It took about ten minutes for them to explore all areas of the room, including the ceiling and the shadowy corners.
The room was not very big. It was probably only one-eighth the size of the study outside. Other than the teleportation array, there was nothing special about it. There were no hidden dangers either.
This made sense. With the Light of Nightmare filling the place, there was no need to set up any other traps.
"This room is probably just a place where Kuloli rests and does some small experiments. The only valuable things are the teleportation array and those books. "Tree Spirit paused." Should we go back to the desk and move those books outside? "
Tree Spirit didn't get a response right away. He looked at Angor in confusion and saw Angor staring at a small alchemy device that looked like a miniature display case on top of it.
They found the device inside a cabinet, which was also the last thing they explored.
"What's wrong with it?" Tree Spirit looked over and asked curiously.
"It should be some kind of alchemy device. But I've never seen it before, so I don't know what it's used for," Angor said.
Tree Spirit also looked at the device. "The display table at the top. It looks like it's used to display magic materials. Maybe it's used for experiments on magic materials. "
Angor didn't say anything. Alchemy Eye couldn't tell him anything. He had to try it out himself.
"You can study it later. Let's take the books and scrolls out first," Tree Spirit said, "I feel unsafe staying inside this red light."
Angor considered and nodded. The device was probably some kind of special device. He could study it later.
Although they said they were moving the books, they were actually stuffing the desk and the desk into the space storage.
With that done, they finally left the range of the Light of Nightmare.
When they reached the door, the green tattoo on Angor's right eye slowly faded away, along with the forcefield.
Rein's eyes glowed as he watched the forcefield disappear. This strange ability was completely different from what he had seen in the past. Even the nature of the ability seemed to be worlds apart.
However, although Rhine had a strong curiosity and desire to explore in his heart, he still suppressed the urge to ask.
Rein forced himself to look away from Angor's right eye and at the red light floating behind the door.
"According to Cuolo's records, the Light of Nightmare is extremely powerful. Even legendaries can't deal with it easily. To avoid any mishaps, I hope you can keep the secret of this hidden room a secret. "
Rein was obviously talking to Angor. Tree Spirit loved to gossip, but he knew what he should and shouldn't say.
Angor nodded. "Even my professor?"
"No need. Sunders already knows about this hidden room, so there's no need to keep it a secret anymore. Later, if Sunders asks you about it in the dream wasteland, just tell him. He'll know what to do. "
After reminding him of this matter, Rhine took a deep look at the Light of Nightmares and strode away.
Angor and Tree Spirit followed him.
Back in his study, Angor took out the desk from his bracelet. A large number of unread books and scrolls rolled down.
Tree Spirit's eyes lit up when he saw Cuolo's Fourth Book. He reached out and picked it up. Although there wasn't much useful information in the latter part of Rhine's story, it was still fun to watch the gossip between the legendary Wizards.
Rein stopped Tree Spirit from reading further. "Tree Spirit, leave a clone here and help Angor organize these books. Sort out the information in it and copy it. "
He meant to copy them because Rein planned to put the original ones back in the hidden room.
After all, this was Cuolo's laboratory, and there was a good chance that Cuolo was still alive. It was fine to flip through the manuscripts and grab some knowledge, but it was not a good thing to be too reckless.
Peace might not last forever, but it could at least be covered up.
"Aren't you going to stay?"
Rein asked. "I figured something out these days. I need to go back and discuss with the others about the dream wasteland. It's more important than anything else. "
Rein looked at Angor again. "You don't mind if I tell the others about the dream wasteland, right?"
Of course, Angor didn't mind.
"How many registers do you have left?" Rein asked.
"A dozen or so. But it's easy to make them. I can make a hundred at a time." The most important feature of the registers was the Nightmare Illusion, which didn't limit the number of materials used.
"Give me the rest then. Make the rest as soon as you can," Rein said. "Don't worry. Tree Spirit will record everything you've done. He won't take them for free. If you need any materials, just go to the material hall and get them. You don't need to report. "
Angor nodded. The dream wasteland seemed to be developing well, but it was still developing slowly. If more wizards could join the wasteland, it would grow much faster.
"Also, I have a request." Rein said, "I might need you to use the Dream Whelk to pull something into the dream wasteland. For one thing, it's for the tea party. For another, I want to verify something for myself. "
Angor couldn't refuse such a request. If he wanted the tea party to flourish in the dream wasteland, he needed to spend a lot of resources. As for Rein's personal request, Angor didn't really care. He could always keep an eye on the wasteland.
With that said, Rein took the register from Angor and prepared to leave the ruin.
However, not long after he walked out of the study, Rhine came back.
"Is there anything else, Mister Rein?"
Rhine's expression was a little strange. He nodded solemnly. "I suddenly remembered that there is one more thing I want to ask you."
Angor did not understand why Rein was being so serious, but he still replied seriously, "Sure, go ahead."
Rein hesitated for a moment and took out the silver monocle from his pocket. "Does the register have to be a monocle?"
"You can change it." Angor didn't know what Rein was talking about.
Rein's monocle brightened up. "Great! Since you can change it, why don't you change it into a crystal ball? "
Before Angor could react, Rein began to talk about the disadvantages of the monocle and the advantages of the crystal ball.
However, not long after Rhine spoke, Tree Spirit walked over and said with a serious face, "Regarding the crystal ball as a communicator, we'll let it pass for now. But the dream wasteland is going to be widely used in the future. You have to consider the feelings of the users. For now, the witches at the tea party won't like it. "
Rein's tone softened a bit. "But the crystal ball is beautiful and mysterious. Don't all witches like shiny things?"
"You're talking about those new apprentices who don't know much about the world and have their own fantasies about the supernatural world. The witches who stand at the top of the southern wizarding region won't like something so old and cumbersome."
Rein remained silent.
"So, we can't agree to the crystal ball. It's the pride of Brute Cavern. We can't ruin it like this. "
Tree Spirit paused and looked at Angor again. "But Rein wasn't wrong when he complained about the monocle's shortcomings. The top witches won't want to wear such an ordinary monocle all the time. If we can customize the device for them, we can win their hearts. "
Tree Spirit didn't force Angor to do this. After all, Angor was the one making the device, and he could do whatever he wanted. As long as it wasn't a crystal ball.
Rein wasn't convinced by Tree Spirit's words. He still didn't want to admit that the crystal ball was ugly, but he did admit that none of the top witches would use it. So, for the sake of the bigger picture, he gave in.
Rein left.
Angor and Tree Spirit returned to their desks and began to organize their books while discussing the design of the logger.
Tree Spirit's words convinced Angor.
The reason why he chose the monocle as the appearance was purely because he broke the monocle of Eliza's owl magic pet, Brulee. Later, when he was refining the login device for Leon, he happened to think of Brulee. So, he refined the monocle.
He wasn't obsessed with the monocle, so he could easily modify it.
Besides, he was very interested in the "customization" mentioned by Tree Spirit. Customizing the device would definitely satisfy the needs of the top witches. If they were satisfied, it would be easier for Angor to promote the device.
However, he couldn't completely customize the device since he still needed to hide the existence of the dream wasteland. A surprise that came out of nowhere was always better than a surprise that came after a long time of preparation.
Although he couldn't completely customize the witches' minds, he should be able to study the witches' minds and make them more customized.
Gradually, Angor and Tree Spirit began to talk about the personalities and preferences of the top witches.
From Sennefer to Pale Witch Sudol, Basket Witch Summerdew, Granny Hydra Ashtray … Tree Spirit had seen a lot of witches before, so he was able to make a lot of sense.
Later, when talking about "Dark Baron" Adelaia from the City of Truth, Tree Spirit suddenly thought of something.
"Reeves and Dark Baron know each other. I wonder how they met." "Oh right, I'll bring Reeves here. You're the one who brought him here, so I'll leave him to you."
While speaking, Tree Spirit sent one of his clones to the Astral Ruin. A moment later, Reeves' soul was wrapped in a Flower of Repose and delivered to Angor's hand.
"Ness has strengthened Reeves' soul. He's sleeping inside the Flower of Repose. When he wakes up, his soul will be more stable, and he can stay in the outside world for a long time. You can ask him about Adelaia's preferences later. "
"What do you plan to do with Reeves?" Tree Spirit asked.
"When the people from Song of the Deep arrive, I'll ask Reeves to show them what happened in the Astral Ruin. After that, I'll set him free. "
Tree Spirit nodded. "I'm glad you have your plan."
With Reeves in place, they continued to talk about the top witches. However, as time went by, Tree Spirit's voice became softer and softer. He had completely immersed himself in the story of Cuolo's Chronicles.
Since he already got most of the information he needed, he did not ask any more questions and focused on the book in his hand.
