Sunders stared at Angor for a long time without saying anything.
After a while, he sighed. "Let's find a place to sit down and talk."
The new city, on the second floor of Butterfly Tea Shop.
Angor and Sunders sat opposite each other in front of a large floor-to-ceiling window. The gentle sunlight poured in, making the atmosphere more comfortable.
A young waiter in a white shirt and black overalls walked over with an exquisite tea tray.
"M-Mister Phantom Phantom, Super —" The waiter stuttered as his hands trembled.
"Alright, put it down." Sunders waved a hand.
The waiter nodded in relief. He put down the tray and brought out a tea set inlaid with golden threads. He then placed milk, tea bags, and sugar on the table.
"There are also some snacks. Would you like some, sir?" The waiter's tongue was straightened and he no longer stuttered. However, the sweat on his forehead still showed how nervous he was.
"Snacks?" Angor took a look at the list of desserts. There were quite a lot of them.
"How did you get the ingredients for these?" Angor remembered that he brought a lot of resources for the new city, but there was no food among them.
The waiter lowered his head respectfully. "The ingredients for the snacks came from the Breadfruit Tree. The milk and saccharine are from a cantrip called Milk Creation. I don't know the details. "
Milk Creation? Angor tried to recall. It was one of the basic Gourmet cantrips, just like Mana Bread. When a Gourmet Wizard cast Milk Creation, he or she only needed to stir water with his or her finger to turn it into fragrant milk.
There were no Gourmet wizards in Brute Cavern. As for the possibility of a cross-discipline wizard … Angor could smell the aroma of milk in the air. A cross-discipline Gourmet Cantrip wizard might not be able to make such delicious milk.
"Did Greya make them?" Angor looked at Sunders instead of asking the waiter. Sunders was the one who brought him here.
Sunders nodded. "Yes. Greya owns this place as well."
Sunders explained slowly. Leona first invited Greya to open a restaurant to prepare for the tea party. Greya didn't want to at first, but when she learned that Iron Granny liked red tea, she agreed. He opened a Butterfly Red Tea Shop here and even hired a few apprentices to be the shop assistants.
"Greya and Iron Granny?"
"Greya's teacher. She's related to Iron Granny."
Angor did not ask further because it was unnecessary and inappropriate. He turned to the servant whose ears were pricked up. "You're done here. You can leave now."
"What about refreshments?"
"No need." Angor shook his head.
The attendant left with a regretful expression. He had thought that he would be able to eavesdrop on some of the big shots' secrets …
"You really don't want refreshments? I heard from Leona that the milk and honey cake here is pretty good, eh?" His tone turned slightly upward. His dark eyes flashed with a mischievous glint.
"I don't like these desserts anymore," Angor protested.
"Then what are you drinking now?"
"Milk?" Angor looked up. There was a layer of white foam around his mouth. It seemed he was still in a daze.
"Milk is added to black tea." Sunders raised an eyebrow.
Angor blinked. "I don't like milk in my tea. It's a waste to leave it here, so I'll just drink it."
Sunders gave Angor a thoughtful look. "Fine. I'll accept the reason."
Sunders did not give Angor a hard time. He knew Angor well enough to know that Angor did not care about other things. Only when it came to whether he could drink milk or not, Angor was very sensitive.
"Let's talk." Sunders took out a spoon and stirred his tea. "Mister Rein, you mentioned an art exhibition. What is it?"
Sunders hadn't entered the dream wasteland for several days, so this was the first time he heard about an art exhibition. Since it was just an art exhibition, Sunders did not mind hearing about Dodoro's prophecy, which piqued his curiosity.
Angor briefly explained the art exhibition to Sunders.
"All of them are paintings by magic artists?"
"Yes. I came across a bunch of them by accident. I'm not good enough to see if there's anything hidden in them. So I decided to show them to other wizards and ask for their opinions. "
Sunders pondered for a moment. "Do the two elemental creatures you created have anything to do with magic artists?"
Angor didn't tell Sunders about Feng in the Abyss Plane. But he did mention that Feng set up a trap in the Abyss Plane, and Angor was the one who broke it.
Sunders had a feeling that Angor was going to do something big this time.
The Abyss Plane had something to do with Feng. Now that Feng showed up again, Sunders felt a little uneasy.
If something as big as what happened in the Abyss Plane happened again, Sunders was worried that he might not be able to help Angor.
Angor hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Yes, a little. I encountered the elemental creatures because I received some information from Feng. "
"What information? Can you tell me? "
Angor considered and nodded. "Sure."
When Angor nodded, Sunders tried to keep a calm expression, but his mind was already stirred up by something. He had a feeling that what Angor was going to say next would upset him.
Angor didn't say anything in the end because Angor had already entered the illusion.
By manipulating the weather patterns and using Mirage, Angor created an image on the table.
It was a rolled up piece of leather with rough edges.
Sunders reached out a finger and unlatched the scroll. The soft scroll unrolled smoothly due to inertia.
"You did a good job simulating the kinetic energy of an object," praised Sunders. He then began reading the scroll.
After a closer look, Sunders noticed that there was a map drawn on the scroll.
The general appearance of the map was like a blooming flower, but also like a white dove spreading its wings.
"Why does this look so familiar?" Sunders felt like he had seen this somewhere before.
Sunders pondered for a moment and unlocked his memory box one by one. Every scene of his life flashed across his mind like a merry-go-round.
Soon, Sunders captured a particular image.
When he was only 30 years old, he was going to explore an island at Devil's Water with a group of friends. Before going to Devil's Water, he first went to Brute Cavern's base in White Clam Sea to rest.
At the corner of a staircase in the White Shell Sea stronghold, he had seen a sea map.
The map started from the southeast coast of Fey Continent and went all the way south. The names of the continents, islands, and seas were all marked. Ferran Land, Land of Revelation, Magic Eaves Promenade, Valhalla Island … These places could all be found on the map.
Since he was going to explore Devil's Water, Sunders memorized the map.
On the map, there was an outline of a continent that looked like a blooming flower or a white dove spreading its wings.
That continent was the Marginalized Island, which was also known as the Old Earth.
Sunders never thought about going to the Old Earth, so he didn't pay much attention to what it looked like. Now that he thought about it, he realized something was wrong.
The Old Earth as a whole was an irregular oval-shaped continent surrounded by dotted islands. It was definitely not a blooming flower.
What's wrong with it?
Sunders stopped thinking about the past and looked at the map in his hand. There was always an answer to his questions. First, he needed to check if there was any information left on the map.
Sunders took a closer look and realized that the person who drew the map wasn't very good. The scale of the map was messed up, and the landforms were also randomly marked.
There were many zones on the map, each of which seemed to be a different tribe or country.
What puzzled Sunders was that there was a simple drawing on each compartment. Monkeys, snakes, winged people, and so on.
"Different worlds?" Sunders didn't know.
He studied the map for a few more minutes and didn't find anything else. The map didn't give him much information. Apart from a general description of the landforms and the drawings of different creatures in each zone, there was nothing else.
"What's this map about?" Sunders looked at Angor and asked, "Where is this map? What's so special about it? "
"This map doesn't look that special at first glance. But if you use Narda's Vision on it, you'll get information hidden on it. "
"Narda's Vision? You mean Alchemy's Eye? Is this a map for alchemists? "asked Sunders.
"Maybe it's not for alchemists, but … for me." Angor sighed and waved his hand again under Sunders' puzzled gaze.
Next to the map, rows of words slowly appeared.
"These words are the information Narda's Vision gave me," Angor explained.
Sunders glanced at the list and saw a name that annoyed him before he could read the whole message.
[Creator: Mirafael Von.]
This map was left behind by Feng, and the hidden information could only be seen through Alchemy's Eye. He began to understand why Angor said that the information on the map was meant for him to read.
Did Feng set up another trap? Angor was the one who played the role?
Sunders calmed himself down and continued reading the rest of the information.
Name: "Tidal Realm Map (Omitted)"
Creator: Mirafael Feng.
Description: Approximate distribution of the creatures in the Tidal Realm.
Note: "Ah, I'm not good at drawing maps. Just look at it."
There wasn't much information on the map, but Sunders was still surprised when he read it. He thought the map was referring to a hidden continent. But now he realized that it wasn't referring to a continent. It was referring to the Tidal Realm.
With the name "World", this was a hidden world that had never been discovered by anyone!
Sunders' heart began to race.
He understood all too well what an undiscovered world meant!
When he thought about the disappearance of elements from the Old Earth and the two elemental creatures Angor brought into the dream wasteland, he already had a bold guess. No, not a bold guess, but a real guess.
Sunders held back his thoughts and asked two questions in a calm manner.
"Is the Tidal Realm a world?"
"Yes."
"Is the Tidal Realm … a vassal world of the wizarding world?"
"Yes."
Sunders already had this idea. If the Tidal Realm was an independent world, Angor wouldn't be able to cross the void and enter the dream wasteland.
There was only one possibility left. The Tidal Realm was a vassal world of the wizarding world, which was why Angor was able to enter the dream wasteland.
He already guessed it, but he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.
The value of a world that had yet to be discovered by anyone was already terrifying.
An undiscovered world that was a vassal world of the wizarding world was worth ten times or even a hundred times more than the previous one.
Of course, this wasn't the only way to measure the value of such a world.
However, Sunders didn't just refer to money. There were many other benefits involved.
If there was something special in this world, it wouldn't just be valuable in itself. It would also represent the right to speak for itself.
Sunders already had a feeling that there was something special in this world.
After a moment of silence, he asked with great difficulty, "Is the Tidal Realm related to the disappearance of the elements in the Old Earth?"
"Yes."
Sunders closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Are there any elemental creatures in the Tidal Realm?"
"Yes, there are."
Sunders didn't ask how many elemental creatures there were in the Tidal Realm. Because many answers were gradually coming to the surface.
The Rain Civet said that it was born in the rain.
Sunders was still wondering where the rain could give birth to elemental creatures. Now that he thought about it, if a world was filled with unparalleled elemental energy, its rain could probably give birth to water elemental creatures.
How could there be so few elemental creatures in such a world?
The answer was obvious, so Sunders didn't ask.
Besides, Sunders didn't want to ask now. He just needed some time alone.
He already knew that Angor was going to do something big, but this time, he couldn't help himself.
Now that the Tidal Realm was confirmed, he couldn't handle it all by himself. In order to solve this problem, they would need the entire Brute Cavern's power.
Sunders took a deep breath. "Tell me, are you safe now? Is there anything in the Tidal Realm that can threaten you? "
Angor thought that Sunders was worried about him, which warmed his heart. "I'm safe. Nothing can threaten me. Plus, with Elmi by your side, even if you really encounter danger, you'll be fine. "
"Good." Sunders didn't change his expression. "Let's talk about Sumesh."
"Huh?" Angor was puzzled. "Aren't we going to talk about the Tidal Realm?"
Since Angor already showed up the map of the Tidal Realm, he was going to tell Sunders everything. He could also ask Sunders for help.
"No need. As long as you're safe," Sunders said calmly. "As for the rest, I'll come up with a plan when I get back."
It wasn't that Sunders wasn't curious. He just wanted to do something else first.
"Alright then."
Sunders knew Angor too well. He knew what Angor was thinking just by looking at his expression. But Angor misunderstood. Sunders didn't want to do anything. He was just stunned by Angor's "bomb" and needed some time to rest.
Forget about the Tidal Realm for now.
Besides, he couldn't afford to lose his composure in front of Angor.
Let's talk about something else first. Sunders didn't really want to talk about Sumesh anymore. Compared to Angor's "bomb", Sumesh was nothing.
