As soon as he saw the man, a strange feeling rose in his heart.
The scene in front of him began to fade, and the man in front of him slowly faded into nothingness as if he had turned into a painting or an old photo that had been transported into time.
The man was standing in front of Angor with a smile on his face, but Angor also felt that he was far away from him.
Angor could see the man's smile, but he couldn't see his face clearly.
It was as if the real world was covered with a fake canvas.
Angor was sure that this wasn't an illusion. It was the man's aura. He didn't release any power, but he already had the power to twist time, souls, and memories just by standing there.
Or even distorting other people's perception.
Angor felt that his perception of the man in front of him was changing from real to false, and from a person who witnessed it to a dusty memory.
Even Angor couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine. Even though the man didn't release any aura and looked just like an ordinary mortal.
But Angor knew that this man was no ordinary mortal.
The power that could distort everything was beyond Angor's understanding.
Even from His Excellency Rhine and His Excellency Monchi, he hadn't felt such a terrifying power.
This power … was definitely not normal!
Maybe … Maybe this was the real power of a law!
"You …" Angor gulped and tried to speak in a hoarse voice, "Pardon my rudeness. May I know what you need from me, sir? "
He tried to relieve the pressure by talking to ease his mind.
Yes, it was his own pressure.
The man in front of him didn't release any real pressure. Angor's fear and shock came from his own mind.
The more frightened he was of the power of distortion, the greater the impact of the power of distortion on him.
It was like … when you didn't know the world, you had nothing to fear. But when you understand how terrifying and cruel the truth of this world is, you will realize that even the air is filled with malice.
In other words, Angor wouldn't feel any pressure at all if he were a mortal.
But the more Angor learned, the greater the pressure he felt.
When he began to speak, he deliberately retracted his gaze from the other party to divert his attention. The pressure that came from his heart began to ease.
He felt less pressure now, but he did not dare to let his guard down. The creature in front of him was definitely one of the strongest creatures he had ever met.
He had already shrunk his "Forcefield" into a small sphere. But now, as he spoke, he slowly expanded his forcefield to cover his entire body.
He chose to use his Forcefield for two reasons. First, he already activated it. Second, the Forcefield came from the green runes, which gave him some peace of mind.
However, what he didn't expect was that when the Domain he casually created covered his entire body, the pressure that was hovering in his heart actually disappeared.
At the same time, the power that distorted Angor's perception was weakening.
When Angor looked at the person in front of him again, it was no longer a "fake" photo. Instead, it was a real person.
Even his face, which he couldn't see clearly before, seemed to have dissipated.
Angor did not dare to stare at the person directly. He only glanced at him from the corner of his eyes and confirmed that it was a white-haired old man with a kind face.
The old man was looking at the dancing green runes around Angor's body with a strange look.
"This power …" The old man's lips trembled as if he wanted to say something. But in the end, he did not say anything. His eyes were filled with surprise, regret, and almost undetectable fear.
Angor did not hear what the old man said. He looked up slightly and did not let his eyes meet the old man's as a courtesy. "Sir, how may I help you?"
"You know who I am, don't you?" The old man looked at Angor from head to toe. "You know who I am, don't you?"
Angor did not expect the old man to suddenly show up and ask such a question.
"I don't know who you are, sir."
The old man chuckled. "You already have an idea, don't you? Why don't you tell me? "
Angor remained silent for several seconds this time.
When the Forcefield covered his body and gave him some peace of mind, he had some time to think about other things. For example, he did have an idea about the identity of the old man in front of him.
Maybe it was the same person Filo met outside yesterday. Filo already experienced the power that distorted his memory and perception. And Filo's description of it was … a fake photo.
It was exactly the same as what he sensed in the first place.
Filo had met this person before, and the old man did not show any hostility at first. He even kindly warned Filo. This was why Angor did not show any reaction when he realized it was the same person. He even dared to speak first.
However, he still could not confirm the old man's identity. There was also a small chance that the old man was the legendary Number 00. The probability was low, but it could not be ruled out. Therefore, Angor first spread his Forcefield around himself. If his guess was wrong and caused a disaster, he could use the green runes to see if he could flip the table again before he died.
But now, when the old man asked the question, Angor knew that his guess was correct.
This old man was definitely the one Filo met.
"Do you have an answer?" the old man asked in an unhurried tone.
"Is … is it the Watcher?" Angor asked in a small voice.
The old man was surprised for a second before he smiled even wider. "You're a bold one, aren't you? Did Froste tell you?"
When the old man mentioned the name "Froste", Angor was sure that the old man was indeed the Watcher.
He guessed that the old man was the Watcher because the situation in the southern wizardry region was very special. There had been no new legendary for many years, and the world's consciousness was undergoing some changes. With the help of the Supreme Cult, the southern wizardry region had become a place where any supernatural above the legendary level would trigger a reaction from the world's consciousness.
To put it simply, such a reaction was a phenomenon. Anyone above the legendary level would trigger such a phenomenon.
Once such a phenomenon was discovered, it would quickly spread to the entire wizardry world.
This old man in front of Angor was clearly someone above the legendary level. Kanter already knew this. If someone above the legendary level entered the wizardry world, he would have been discovered already.
But now, Angor had no information about this old man at all, which meant that this old man did not appear in the southern wizardry region recently.
There was only one person who stayed in the southern wizardry region all the time, who would not trigger the phenomenon, and who would not be detected by the top of the pyramid.
The Watcher, who swore an oath to the wizardry world.
He already had such a thought in his mind, and he just wanted to confirm it.
Now, it seemed that he was right. The old man was the Watcher.
The Watcher was the "Watcher" in the southern wizardry region. They would definitely sense the arrival of a legendary wizard. However, sensing and knowing the wizard were two different things.
The fact that the old man recognized Froste and knew that Froste had contacted Angor also meant that he had been staying in the southern wizardry region for a long time.
"His Excellency Froste did not reveal the deacon's identity to me. I learned of the deacon's existence from His Excellency Cuolo's diary. He said that three hundred years ago, His Excellency Bellos came to the southern region to carry out a mission with the deacon."
A strange light flashed across the white-haired old man's eyes. "Kuloli's diary, haha, it should be called 'Bellows's Observation Diary'. Kuloli has been coveting Bellows for a long time …"
The old man paused and looked at Angor. "So, you entered the secret chamber he left in Gemini Lab?"
Gemini Lab was one of the two ruins in Parmigi Highlands. One was Angor's temporary residence, while the other was occupied by a nightmare creature and turned into the Land of Sincerity.
"Yes." Angor was not surprised that the Watcher knew about Gemini Lab. According to Cuolo's Diary, when Belos left the southern wizardry region, he asked the Watcher to take care of Gemini Lab when he had the time.
"You're not affected by the Light of Nightmare?"
Angor pointed at the green gravitational field around him. "It's protecting me from the Light of Nightmare."
The old man looked at the gravitational field and did not ask any more questions. As someone who always followed the rules, he knew that the gravitational field was not simple. The green gravitational field might have something to do with the secrets of that world. The more he looked into it, the more likely he would get into trouble.
"Mister Watcher, Gemini Lab is —" Angor wanted to talk about the Land of Sincerity. Since Belos asked the Watcher to take care of Gemini Lab, the Watcher should know something about the nightmare creatures. Perhaps Angor could use the Watcher to solve the problem.
But before Angor could say anything, the old man put a finger on his lips and shushed him.
"Since you know about the Watcher, you should know that the Watcher cannot directly interfere with the wizardry world. I know what you want to ask, but I can't do anything about it. Besides, it's not something I can interfere with. "
Not even Cuolo could do anything about it. After all, it was related to that world. And because of that, he did not dare to pay too much attention to Parmigi Highlands and the Evernight Kingdom.
