Unfortunately, there was a huge gap between reality and dreams. Fire creatures did not dare to approach him at all. Angor could not fool them even if he wanted to.
As for capturing them by force … he did not plan to do so for now. After all, it was rare for him to establish a friendly relationship with the creatures of the Fire Domain. Even if he wanted to break the barrier, he would have to wait until he got Feng's information.
With a regretful heart, Angor landed beside the lava lake.
Dankros jumped down from the Hand of Spell and walked to the edge of the lava lake using his index and middle fingers. He looked around and said to Angor, "Mister Padt, Magoo usually sleeps most of the time. Let me see if he's awake."
With that, Dankros jumped into the lake. However, he did not sink. Instead, he stood on the surface of the lava lake and moved his "feet" quickly.
In the end, Dankros stopped at a relatively calm part of the lake.
Using his spirit power, Angor saw that Dankros was standing beside a transparent "bean sprout".
The bean sprout floating on the surface of the lake was an extension of Magoo's body.
After Dan Gross came to the bean sprout, he did not say anything. Instead, he approached it carefully. Just as Dankros was about to touch the bean sprout, the bean sprout's head swayed, and its mouth, which was full of sharp teeth, bit Dankros.
Dankros screamed in pain.
"Let go! Let go! Magoo! It's me! It's me! "Dankros yelled.
However, the bean sprout did not stop there. It kept biting Dankros. Dankros used all his strength to open up a hole in the bean sprout's mouth.
Dankros quickly jumped and ran back to the lakeside.
As soon as he reached the shore, Dankros collapsed on the scorched ground and panted heavily. He looked exhausted and frightened.
"Your Magoo doesn't seem to welcome you." Angor looked at the bean sprout in the distance, which had become quiet again. He then looked at Dankros again.
Dankros rested for a moment before he caught his breath. "It's not like that. When Teacher Magoo sleeps, the exposed antennae will automatically attack the surrounding living beings."
"Actually, as long as we dive into the lake, the tentacles won't attack us. However, this lava lake is Magoo's territory. Before we dive into the lake, it's best to greet the tentacles."
"I see. But it's still sleeping. Should we wait for it to wake up?"
Dankros shook his head. "There's no need. When I was bitten by the tentacle just now, I had already put a fire into the tentacle's esophagus. Teacher will definitely wake up after receiving it."
Dangros' words sounded normal, but Angor felt as if Dangros just farted in Magoo's throat.
Angor and Dangeros stood by the lakeside and waited patiently.
While waiting, he suddenly felt something moving around his feet.
When he looked down, he discovered that a slug the size of a baby's fist was slowly crawling out from a small crack in the scorched earth. It was covered in blue flames.
The slug seemed to be in a daze and kept moving around in circles.
Seeing this, Dankros quickly ran over and picked up the blue flame slug with his pinky and thumb.
Dankros put his hand on the slug's body and kept rubbing it. It looked like a human was sucking on a feline's fur.
After a while, Dankros finally raised his "head", stroked the blue flame slug with his pinky, and carefully placed it back into the lava lake.
Seeing the blue flame slug disappear, Dankros put his hands on his hips and laughed out loud. "Nice work today. Another follower! Hahahaha!"
"What are you talking about?"
Dankros said, "That little elf was just born in the Sound of the World. I just told it to be my little brother. I can protect it in the future, and it agreed."
"A newborn elemental sprite already has intelligence?" Angor was puzzled.
Dan Gross: "Of course not. Not everyone is as smart as me!"
"Then why did it agree to be your follower?"
Dankros put on a matter-of-fact look. "I left my fire inside its body, and it recognized my fire. Of course it's my follower!"
You're taking in a follower? Why does it feel like you're lusting after its body?
After hearing Dankros' words, Angor imagined Dankros excreting into someone else's body.
Angor looked at Dankros in a strange way. There was a hint of disdain in his eyes.
Dankros didn't notice Angor's change of mind. He was still looking around. "Every time the World Voice comes, a large number of sprites will be born. There must be more around here. I need to take this chance to recruit more followers."
Dankros soon found a new smoke tadpole. He was so excited that he wanted to recruit more followers. However, the smoke tadpole was swimming in the smoke, and Dankros couldn't reach it.
Left with no other choice, Dankros came to the lava lake and whistled. Half a minute later, a group of flaming butterflies flew out from under the lake. Under Dankrose's command, the flaming butterflies landed on him one after another. All the butterflies spread their wings together and brought him into the air.
Dangros was caught by the butterfly and flew to the side of the smoke tadpole. He used the same trick he used on the blue fire slug and hugged the tadpole to suck it in.
Dankros landed on the ground and waved a hand at the tadpole. The latter quickly followed the smoke and rubbed its head against the tadpole's body.
Clearly, another naive little elf had been harmed by Dankros.
Dankros rubbed the tadpole's head in satisfaction and told it to move on its own. Then, he controlled the flame butterflies to search for more elemental sprites. Once they found something, the tadpole would go and recruit more followers.
After a while, Dankros confirmed that there were no more newborn sprites around, so he told the flame butterflies to return to their homes while he returned to Angor's side.
"Those butterflies are your minions?" asked Angor, who watched the whole thing unfold in front of him.
"Of course." Dankros nodded. "They're the sprites that were born when the World Sound came."
"Why did you take in so many underlings?" … Was it really not because of their bodies?
Dan Gross said, "A little brother is a little brother. He can help me fight."
"Fight for you?" "Was that hairball one of your minions?" Angor asked. "So that self-destruct monster was your minion?"
Dankros said with some dissatisfaction, "What furball? That's Korokro. He used to be my little brother, but now he's my friend. Besides, he didn't self-destruct. That's his talent ability. He can detonate the energy stored in his body. His mind won't be damaged, and he can slowly recover in the future. "
Angor rubbed his chin. "Korokro's talent isn't bad. If I can recruit him …"
"Recruit what?" Dankros heard something and gave Angor a puzzled look.
"I didn't say anything. You misheard me. Apart from Korokro, that Flame Giant from before was also your little brother? "
Dankros' attention was immediately diverted when he heard "flame giant". He proudly said, "That's right. Duroche is the strongest follower I've ever recruited."
"It doesn't look like an elemental fairy. It should be an adult elemental creature. Why is it willing to accept you as its boss?" Angor gave Dankros a doubtful look. The flame giant was defeated by Elmi, but that didn't mean it was weak. It was just that Elmi was stronger.
The flame giant was definitely as strong as a wizard. Angor didn't know how strong Dankros was. However, since he couldn't even break free from a level-2 cantrip like Advanced Hand of Spell, Dankros was probably as strong as a level-1 or level-2 apprentice.
Angor didn't think it was possible for a beginner apprentice to recruit a wizard as his follower.
The more Angor doubted it, the more Dankros felt proud. "I'm not lying. Duroche is my follower. Otherwise, he wouldn't have listened to me and fought that — that flowering wildcat."
When speaking of "flowering wildcat", Dankros secretly glanced at Toby who was sitting on Angor's head.
At this moment, Toby also looked over. He looked at Dankros with more approval and less wariness in his eyes. He nodded in agreement. He was very satisfied with the name 'Flowering Wildcat'.
Dankros was happy to receive Toby's praise. "If you don't believe me, Mister Padt, I'll call Duroche over."
After saying that, Dankros whistled at the Lava Lake. However, after whistling for a long time, the surface of the lake remained calm, and the Flame Giant did not appear.
The calm surface of the lake made Dankros feel a little awkward, and he began to panic. He felt that he had embarrassed himself in front of Toby, whom he worshipped. Hence, he continued to blow with a red face.
In the end, the flame giant still didn't show up. Instead, Dankros blew a "bean sprout" to the edge of the lava lake.
"Dankros, are you looking for me, or are you looking for Duroche?" Beansprout asked in a voice that sounded a little weathered.
Dankros shivered and straightened up. "Professor Magoo!"
"Yes." The hoarse voice humphed. "You sent your flame through my antennae, so I thought you were looking for me. But why do I hear you calling Duroche?"
Dankros subconsciously rubbed his thumb and little finger together. "I'm indeed here for Mr. Magoo. I brought Mister Padt and the descendants of Kalomonkis. However, I also have something I want to talk to my 'little brother' Duroche about."
When Dan Gross mentioned the word 'little brother', he emphasized it.
Magoo controlled Bean Sprout to look behind Dankros and slowly said, "It's a human …"
"But I only see one human. Where's the descendant of Kalomonkis?"
Dankros pointed at Toby. "Over there."
Toby also stood up and raised his head with a proud look on his face.
"Mister Magoo, my name is Angor Padt. I came to Tide Realm by following the trail of the Savior. I was introduced by His Highness, and I hope to meet you." Angor tried his best to hold back his urge to drag Toby away. "Mister Magoo, my name is Angor Padt. I came to Tide Realm in pursuit of the Savior.
Magoo looked away from Dankros to Angor and remained silent for a while.
When Angor thought Magoo was not going to talk, the tentacles moved again and bit down on Dangros' defenseless body.
Dan Gross was shocked. He endured the pain of being bitten and quickly jumped away.
A moment later, Magoo's voice came again. "Oops, I'm sorry. I accidentally took a nap. I'm old, but I'm still in good spirits. That was an accident. "
Angor didn't know what to say.
Magoo laughed and said, "What were you talking about just now? Ah, fine. Come to me first. Talking with my antennae is too tiring. Zzzzzzz … "
Angor listened to the snoring and felt a little regretful. Why did he feel that Magoo was a bit unreliable?
Dankros chuckled awkwardly. "Mister Magoo fell asleep again. But it's okay. He already agreed to let us in. Let's go down."
As soon as he finished speaking, before Dankros could do anything, Bean Sprout bit him again.
"Me again?!" Dankros yelled in anger.
The bean sprout swayed a little, and Magoo's voice came again. "Oops, I took a nap again. Dankros, what are you talking about? Oh, I remember now. You're talking about Duroche, right? "
"Duoche is currently resting in the lake. Although it was heavily wounded earlier, it had completely recovered thanks to the consolation of the sound of the world, and had even broken through a bit more recently" Gu Qing Shan explained. Magoo clicked his tongue. "Well, I guess he got something good out of a disaster. I think his elemental core is already changing. Maybe he'll gain sentience when he wakes up this time."
Dankros didn't think much of it at first, but when Magoo finished his words, Dankros suddenly froze. "Gain sentience? Duroche will gain sentience?! Is that true, Mister Magoo? "
"Of course it is. Duroche still has a good chance of gaining sentience," Magoo said. "Speaking of which, when Duroche gains sentience, you'll lose your position as the boss."
When Magoo reached the end of his sentence, he chuckled as though he was waiting to watch a good show. However, his laughter soon stopped, and he heard the sound of sleeping again. At the same time, the bean sprout bit Dankros again.
This time, Dankros didn't struggle. He mumbled in despair, "Duroche is gaining sentience. Ugh … How … He's my number one follower. Don't!"
Seeing Dankros' desperate look, Angor finally understood why Duroche could call Dankros his boss. It was because Duroche had yet to awaken his intelligence.
Even so, he still admired Dankros for his ability to do so.
Even if Duroche didn't gain sentience before, it was still a great achievement for Dankros to have Duroche as his follower.
Maybe this was Dankros' unique talent?
