Angor looked up and saw that Ness didn't seem relieved at all. Instead, he was still frowning.
Ness sensed Angor's gaze and nodded at him. He then turned to Kanter. "Under what circumstances would a legendary wizard release his or her law energy?"
"Nothing like that," Kanter replied. "Because there's no reason for them to do so."
Why would someone who could control a law so well do that?
The power of law that leaked out would form waves of law ripples. As these ripples didn't have a specific target, they basically didn't have any destructive power aside from the center. Those who were affected by the ripples would at most have some control effect, making them unable to move. However, this kind of control was a law suppression, so it wasn't impossible to move.
With the status of a legendary adept, large-scale attacks and large-scale crowd control were completely at their fingertips. There was no need to rely on the power of laws to disperse.
Therefore, it was impossible for a legendary wizard to release a law energy wave like this.
Ness was still frowning after hearing Kanter's explanation. "So you're still suspecting that the man you met is a legendary wizard?" Angor asked.
Ness nodded and sighed. "I'm not the only one. When I went to the dream wasteland, I told Mister Tree Spirit and Iron Granny about that person. They had the same idea as me."
"Granny, if you do it on your own, you can obscure someone's memory or even lock onto their memory. However, if you want to play it down like that person, to make it difficult to trace back, to recall, and to probe into it, it is impossible for you to have this kind of non-active influence. "
Iron Granny's power level had always been a mystery. However, Rein didn't mind letting her guard the Astral Pool Ruin alone, which meant that Granny was one of the top wizards in the southern wizarding region.
In other words, Iron Granny was most likely a level-3 truth-finder wizard.
Even Granny couldn't do it. If that person could do it, he either had some special ability or he was at a higher level.
"Plus, someone who did it on their own will leave traces behind. Wizard Filo didn't leave any traces on him, which means Wizard Filo was affected by that person's aura. A truth-finder wizard can't do such a thing, let alone imitate it. "
It was exactly because he couldn't let go of 'that person' and thought that the guy was probably above legendary, that Ness was very suspicious about the airwaves and thought that it was caused by him.
"Even Iron Granny couldn't do it. Who could? Who is this' person 'you keep talking about? " Kanter looked at Ness in confusion. "Are you hiding something from me? Are you trying to set me up again?"
Ness smiled sheepishly and said somewhat weakly, "No, no. That person has nothing to do with my target. It was Wizard Filo who encountered him. "
That being said, Ness's behavior made Kanter even more suspicious. "Then tell me the situation clearly. Who is that person?"
Under Kanter's intimidating gaze, Ness hesitated, not knowing where to begin. Angor considered for a moment and asked Ness to shut up so that he could explain.
Then, he briefly explained the situation to Kanter.
After Kanter finished listening, he didn't have much interest in the living sacrifice, laboratory, Cazider World's hidden powers, organ smuggling, Spirit Gear etc. After all, he wasn't a soul type, and was only slightly interested in Spirit Gear, but not in the research of Spirit Gear.
However, Kanter had the same feeling as Iron Granny when it came to "that person" Filo encountered.
Seeing Kanter's long silence, Filo couldn't help but ask, "Sir Kanter, could that person be … a Legendary?"
Kanter fell silent for a moment. He didn't answer Filo's question directly. Instead, he changed the subject. "The Lilith Clan once had a leader who was very similar to Fein Werder. He was a wizard who loved to travel the world and write down his travels. However, her travel notes had always been kept inside Lilith's House and had never been made public. Or rather, there were very few people like Fein Werder who liked to publish their travels.
"In her travels, she has written about situations similar to what Wizard Filo described. In fact, she has written about it more than once."
Under everyone's shocked gazes, Kanter continued, "The most similar incident to what happened to Filo was when she was traveling to the Loft Continent. Because she was very interested in the local Evil Gods, she asked a local Evil God researcher about the distribution of Evil Gods, as well as their common names."
"The non-believer was generous enough to share his research. He didn't seem to mind when talking about other evil gods. But when he mentioned that not long ago, for the sake of research, he happened to peek at a sacrifice where the projection of the Evil God descended, and recalled the situation at that time, his story began to become hesitant and uncertain. The more he thought about it, the slower his thinking became … "
Filo was stunned. "That's exactly the same as my situation."
Kanter glanced at Filo. "Well, not exactly. At least, the ending was different."
Kanter's casual glance put a lot of pressure on Filo. He couldn't help but gulp. "What was his ending?"
Kanter: "When the ancestor discovered the non-believer's strange behavior, he did a full body checkup on him. There was nothing out of the ordinary. The non-believer was a ruthless person. He didn't believe in heresy and continued to think about what happened. He even tried to describe the evil god's projection … In the end, he became an evil creature.
"His body has expanded several times, and his insides are filled with the sound of surging waves. Countless black slits have grown out of his skin, and the slits are filled with sharp teeth. There are also tentacles that are spitting green, stinky liquid."
Just by listening to Kanter's description, everyone present had a strange and horrifying feeling. Filo was the most affected. When he thought about his own situation, he couldn't help but shiver.
"In the end, the ancestor killed him and recorded his death in his travels. He didn't go into detail about the name of the evil god or the content of the ritual. He only left a short summary: 'When traveling in Loft World, you must obey one rule — Do not spy on the gods.' "
"Sugar Follower" Brofen, an alchemist from Moonfrost Union, tried to resurrect the Ancient Evil God from Loft World. However, he accidentally leaked some of his aura and sent it all the way to Skyward Island, which resulted in the deaths of countless people.
The Evil God's power in the Loft World was the strangest and most difficult to guard against among the supernatural energies discovered in the general plane.
"But this rule isn't unbreakable. If you're strong enough, you can face the evil god of Loft World head-on. You can even slay a god."
Slaying a god sounded easy, but it was an impossible task for them to achieve.
Because of the strangeness of this story, the air was silent for a while.
Several minutes later, Filo finally broke the silence. "Mister Kanter, are you saying that person … has something to do with the evil god?"
"No." Kanter shook his head.
"In addition to the experience in the Loft world, our ancestors also encountered similar situations in other worlds. For example, the beast-shaped Outer God of the Drauna World, the top-tier Wild God of the Barbarian World, Wang Huo of the Chenchi World … all of them have similar undetectable properties. Of course, they are not as good as Loft's Evil God, but they are similar to a certain extent. "
"Half of these Outer Gods, Wild Gods, and Wang Huo sound like gods, but 'god' is just a synonym. In essence, they are powerful extraordinary beings."
"So, I just want to say that someone who can do this is definitely not a normal superhuman. Their power level is beyond our imagination. "
In other words, Kanter was hinting at the possibility that the person Filo had encountered might actually be a Legendary cultivator.
Only someone of such a level could do something like this.
So far, Ness's inspiration, Iron Granny and Tree Spirit's speculation, as well as Kanter's ancestor's travels, had all determined that the "person" Filo met was above the legendary level.
But they were all wizards who stood at the top of the southern wizarding region. Their speculations had to be reasonable.
All in all, the "person" might really be a legendary.
Filo felt terrible. After all, he was the one who encountered the "person".
"If I had continued to think about that person's situation, would I have ended up like that non-believer from Loft Continent?" Filo muttered to himself.
"The evil gods of Loft World are different from the legendary human beings. Don't scare yourself," Angor comforted him. "Since that person is trying to warn you, I don't think he's going to do anything bad."
"You have a point," Kanter said. "But try not to think about it."
Filo nodded seriously, but his face was still pale.
Hearing Kanter's words, everyone shut their mouths.
When they were guessing that the other party might be a legendary wizard, they didn't talk much about it. Now that they knew who the person was, they didn't want to talk about it too much.
Kanter looked at Ness. "I wouldn't have come if I knew someone like that would show up. So, you have to — "
"I've already signed the contract. I won't pay more."
Kanter opened his mouth and tried to say something, but in the end, he shook his head. "Forget it. I just hope that person doesn't show up while you're exploring."
With that, Kanter told Ness to get ready so that they could leave as soon as possible. They didn't want that "person" to get killed for no reason.
Ness understood the urgency of the situation, so he quickly began his preparations. As a Soul Element Wizard, his main method was to manipulate the bones and souls of the dead. Although he had a lot of bones in reserve, there were quite a few sea beast bones nearby, and they were of decent quality. It was better to collect them and manipulate them in advance than to use up his reserves.
While Ness prepared, Kanter explained the runes in the lab to Angor.
At the same time, Kanter sent his spirit feelers into the ground to get a better understanding of the lab.
"It's not that big. It's only a few dozen meters underground. Also, there are many small parts that look like … mechanical limbs. That's even smaller, "Kanter explained.
"Mechanical limbs?" Angor was too busy studying the runes to get a general idea of the lab. He followed Kanter's instruction and used his spirit feelers to check the lab.
Sure enough, the overall shape of the laboratory was like a huge circular fortress. The fortress was surrounded by mechanical belts that looked like limbs.
Angor thought of Iron Granny's Iron Fortress.
Kanter said, "It looks like a limb. Maybe it's a corridor that connects to different places?"
Reynolds, who had been keeping a low profile, spoke up in a weak voice. "You're right, Mister Kanter. The lab will move around a lot, and when it does, those limbs will act as the lab itself. When they're not moving, they'll form tunnels that lead to different levels of the lab. "
"That's an interesting design." Kanter looked at Angor in awe. "I noticed that the outside of the fortress is covered with runes. Can you open it?"
"Sure." Angor nodded.
"It'll save us a lot of trouble if we have someone who knows how to use runes," Kanter mumbled. Kanter muttered. He could have used his own strength to blast open the door of the laboratory, but that would have caused some unforeseen consequences.
Kanter said, "Since everything is fine here, let's go and meet 03."
Since they were going to explore the lab, they had to be fully prepared. Only someone who knew the lab better would know about it, so Kanter decided to meet Number 03 first.
At the same time, he also wanted to ask Number 03 if the person Filo met had anything to do with the lab.
When they were about to meet Number 03, they heard another rumbling sound.
As the wave of Law came, everyone stood silently in place, waiting for it to weaken.
Finally, the airwaves began to subside. Only then did everyone heave a sigh of relief.
"Mister Kanter, you said we can move around inside the airwaves, right?" Angor looked at Kanter and asked, "You said we can move around inside the airwaves, right?"
Kanter nodded. "Yes. It's because of the suppression of the law. You can think of it as the deterrence of a higher level against a lower one. Or you can call it the 'deterrence of a higher level'. To avoid this, we need to set up a barrier around us that is similar to the power of the law, and we won't be affected by it. "
"A barrier that is similar to the power of the law?" Angor wasn't sure if they could control something that was similar to the power of the law.
"Let's take wizards as an example. As long as you reach the legendary level, your mana and spirit will be able to resist the deterrence of the law. There are also powerful bloodlines that can resist the power of the law to a certain extent. Of course, in terms of status, these powers are far from being comparable to the power of laws. "
But they're still far away from us. Tell me about something that's closer. " Kanter looked at Angor and said, "Actually, there's a power inside you that can protect you from the residual energy of the law. That's why you're still able to move freely."
"Something inside me?" Angor was confused.
Kanter nodded. "Gravity sequence."
