When Greya said "let me see", she meant "let me have a taste".
"Be careful, it's poisonous." Angor tried to warn her anyway.
Such a colorful pattern was a perfect breeding ground for poisons.
Greya swallowed the mushroom and chewed. "I wouldn't be a Gourmet Wizard if I'm afraid of poisons."
Apart from Bloodline Wizards, Gourmet Wizards were the most resistant to poisons in the wizarding world. They would do anything they could to get food, even if they knew it was poisonous. Due to their fearless spirit, Gourmet Wizards learned all kinds of poison-repelling spells since they were apprentices.
Greya really didn't care if the mushroom was poisonous or not.
Angor and Greya were close friends, so he knew this as well. But he still reminded Greya because —
Greya seemed to have forgotten that Angor's current body was not his real one.
Greya didn't seem to care at all. She chewed even louder and closed her eyes to sense the texture of the food while using her tongue to explore its taste.
Fortunately, the mushroom wasn't poisonous, so Greya was fine.
However, Greya's skin turned sallow and stiff like the bark of a dead tree.
"It's just a small poison. It's fine, I can get rid of it on my own. But I'll leave it at that for now. " Greya didn't think much of it. The only thing she regretted was that her hair and makeup looked a little dull due to the lack of moisture on her skin. She needed to touch it up regularly. This caused her perfect face to lose some of its luster.
Since Greya didn't care about it, Angor didn't say anything.
"Are you sure that mushroom is an ingredient?" Sumesh asked.
Greya raised an eyebrow. "Of course. In a general sense, you're an ingredient too."
Sumesh didn't know what to say.
Greya continued, "The mushroom is a little poisonous, but it's not bad. I can use a variety of ingredients to get rid of the poison. But sometimes, poisons aren't all bad. I can use this poison to make a dish that increases my defense."
Greya scratched her skin with a fingernail. "See? Isn't my skin better now?"
Greya was so engrossed in her self-satisfaction that she didn't realize how horrible her current appearance was.
A moment later, Greya finished savoring the taste of the mushroom and looked at Angor again. "One more."
Angor waved a hand. "Not yet."
"What do you mean 'not busy'?" Greya said. "It's very important. We can use them as ingredients for our tea party. How about I ask Leona to talk to you? "
Angor didn't want to be bothered by Leona. "I mean, you can create your own Dream Life- no, I mean, ingredients."
"The creatures I created all appeared randomly. If it's you, Greya, you can make your own. "
"You mean …" Greya paused for a few seconds before she realized what Angor meant.
Angor nodded with a smile. "Since you're so compatible with the Membrane of Rhythm, why don't you try using it?"
While Greya was indulging in the delicious mushrooms, Angor had a discussion with Rein and the others. Apart from Sumesh, everyone supported Greya's decision to share the responsibility.
Sunders, of course, supported Angor's decision.
Rein, on the other hand, considered the fact that Greya wasn't a wizard from Brute Cavern. But after giving it some thought, he decided to let it go. Angor was a member of Brute Cavern, but the dream wasteland didn't belong to Brute Cavern. It was better to support Angor like how Sunders did.
Besides, Sumesh wasn't going to make the dream wasteland's food chain grow any stronger. Greya already had the Genesis spell, which meant she was much more talented at creating life. With Greya's help, the process would be much more efficient.
Even Sunders supported Sumesh's decision, so Sumesh had no reason not to. Still, he didn't want to give up the authority so soon.
Greya rubbed her chin. "Sounds like a good idea."
"Of course it is. The Membrane of Rhythm is one of the most important Laws of Life in the dream wasteland. You've been studying the Law of Life for a long time, right? Maybe it'll be useful for your cultivation in the real world." Sumesh was the one who spoke. Although he was telling the truth, his tone was laced with jealousy.
Greya's eyes lit up. She knew Sumesh was right. The law of illusion wasn't as realistic as the law of life, but it was still a good way to study the law of life.
"I'll do it!" Greya was already tempted, and she couldn't wait any longer. "I'll do it!"
Angor told Sumesh how to share the authority, and Sumesh came to Greya.
"Everyone wants you to share the authority of Membrane of Rhythm. But don't just focus on creating ingredients … "Sumesh muttered under his breath.
"Don't worry." Greya winked at him.
She didn't tell Sumesh what she was worried about. Sumesh didn't ask because he didn't like the look.
Following Angor's instructions, Sumesh began to share the authority with Greya.
Greya would need time to experiment with her new power. Sumesh was the only one left in the forest so that he could talk to Greya about the new power. The rest of the team members left the forest.
…
When Angor reappeared in the dream wasteland, he found himself standing in front of a peaceful lake.
The new city was behind him, while the wasteland and misty mountains were in front of him.
A gentle breeze was gently blowing across the surface of the lake.
Beside the lake, there was a small courtyard built with steel and white shellstone bricks. This courtyard was, in essence, also a Magic Hut. It was just that the materials used were of a higher grade than ordinary Magic Huts.
"Let's talk here. This is where Wallace meditates. When I entered the dream wasteland, I asked Wallace to guard the ruin for me. He's not here right now, so it's just the three of us. "
It was Rein who spoke with Angor and Sunders beside him. As for Freud, he had already returned to Foundation City.
"We've learned about the Membrane of Rhythm. As for the creation of new life, we'll leave it to Greya and Sumesh." Rein opened the door and walked into the warm room. He opened the window and let the fresh air in.
"Now, let's talk about your situation. The Tidal Realm …" Rein's tone was much more serious than before.
Sunders was sitting on the other side of the tawny wooden table.
Angor also sat down facing Sunders.
"You already know a little about the Tidal Realm, but I'll tell you everything from the beginning." Angor considered for a moment and decided to start from when he first returned to the Old Earth and met Princess Tawny, who was pregnant.
The fire in the fireplace continued to burn, making a hissing sound.
The window was open, and the moist wind from the lake would blow in from time to time.
Angor's soft and soothing voice echoed in the room.
Everyone agreed not to mention anything about the Abyss Demon. Angor already told them about the Abyss Demon, but he only mentioned that the demon fainted and left out the details. It was clear that he didn't want to tell them the whole truth either.
Rein was curious about the death of the demon's soul, but he was more interested in Angor's personal strength. Besides, Rein didn't think Angor could kill the demon's soul on his own. Angor was too weak to get involved in the demon's business. Rein assumed that Angor was helping a powerful figure to hide the truth.
Now that they knew the truth, everything became much clearer.
Everything started because of Feng's obsession. Through the Book of Kael, he set up this trap that took hundreds of years to come.
"So it was Feng's doing. No wonder you found so many of his paintings."
"It's amazing that you were able to solve it."
Rein sighed as he tried to figure out the whole story.
"But there's one thing I don't understand. If Feng discovered the Tidal Realm three thousand years ago, why didn't he announce it? Didn't the trap happen six hundred years ago? "
"Maybe Mister Feng didn't want to see the creatures of the Tidal Realm being eaten up by wizards."
It was too long ago, and Feng wasn't here right now, so it was hard to tell. Still, Rein appreciated Feng's decision to keep the Tidal Realm a secret.
"I don't know why, but if the Tidal Realm was announced as soon as it merged three thousand years ago, it wouldn't have been so different. It wouldn't have ended up like this. "
Even the Tidal Realm wouldn't have developed in the same way.
Three thousand years ago, when the two realms merged, the Tidal Realm didn't have any high-leveled creatures. Many wizard organizations came to the place, and the Elemental Tide, Elemental Monarch, and so on wouldn't exist anymore.
Considering the wizards' corrosive power, the Tidal Realm would have been completely destroyed.
Three thousand years later, the Tidal Realm was about to be opened, and the elemental creatures within had already gained a certain level of self-preservation. Unless an all-out war broke out, it wouldn't be easy for the Sorcerers to completely exterminate the creatures within the Tidal Realm. If the Tidal Realm was opened to the outside world now, the elemental creatures would be able to develop in a sustainable manner. They wouldn't be as weak as they were when the realm first merged.
"Maybe what you said is true. Mr. Feng is just taking pity on them."
Rein sighed and stopped thinking about the past. He didn't care about the past. The most important thing right now was to seize the opportunity.
"The prophecy from Book of Kael surprised me. It follows the principle of equality. Since you're a key player in the game, Feng, who used you to break the trap, will have to compensate you, "Rein said." Such a principle is rarely seen in Mystery items. "
"The Tidal Realm is Feng's compensation for you?"
Angor shook his head. "It's something else."
Under the watchful eyes of Sunders and Rein, Angor told them about his recent journey in the Tidal Realm, which involved the three Elemental Sovereigns, as well as Feng's consciousness left in the painting.
Next, he began to talk about the price Feng had to pay.
"Mister Feng left me three things. The first one is a prop. Forgive me for not telling you about it."
Rein and Sunders nodded without saying anything.
"The second one is an oil painting. Mister Feng's avatar painted it himself. I think it contains a trace of his energy. I can't use an illusion to show it. "
"It's fine. I'll come to you later. You can look at the painting then," Rein said.
"Mister Rein, you're coming?" Angor was surprised. The ruin was still peaceful, but no one knew what was going to happen next. How could Rein leave?
Rhine nodded. "Even though I'm also worried that something might have happened in the ruins, the matter regarding the Tidal Realm is simply too big. I had to make a trip here. I'll ask Iron Granny to guard the ruin for me while I go to the Tidal Realm to see what's going on. "
"I'll come too."
Rhine said, "Aren't you still searching for the Red Plague believers? Sumesh just got better. Don't you want to wait a bit longer? "
"They'll take care of it themselves. If they can't even handle something as simple as this, it's their fate."
Rein didn't want to ask too much since this was Sunders' way of teaching.
"As for the third thing Mister Feng left for me …" Angor paused for a moment to find the right words.
Rein and Sunders also pricked up their ears. To them, the third item should be the most valuable.
"It's a gift from the heavens."
Both Sunders and Rein were stunned for a second. But in the next second, their eyes brightened up.
"Are you sure it's a gift from the heavens?"
"Was it the will of the Tidal Realm that granted you the heavenly authority?"
It took Angor a while to collect his thoughts. "Yes. The consciousness of the Tidal Realm granted me a gift from the heavens.
But I don't know if I got it or not. "
"Tell us everything in detail," Rein said.
Angor didn't hide anything. He told Sunders about the ritual, how he resisted the pressure, how he touched the consciousness of the world with his spirit, and how he had a long dream.
Rein considered for a moment. "A gift from the heavens is only a concept. I can't tell if you got it or not. But according to what you said, you should have gotten it. "
