"Is there a way to stabilize the space ripples around Mister Kanter?"
It was Angor who spoke. He looked up at the sky, where the darkness of the night was. Kanter's figure was nowhere to be seen. The only thing he could see was the darkness of the night, which looked like a surging tide.
The darkness seemed to have merged with the sky, but it wasn't the real "darkness". It was Kanter's ability.
Such a massive darkness represented an unimaginable amount of mana, which meant the sky above had become a place of chaos.
To get close to Kanter, Angor would have to go through the "darkness" and resist the attraction of the fruit.
However, if he could suppress the space ripples, he might be able to open an Illusion Gate and pull Kanter to him.
"Stabilizing a space ripple from a distance is difficult," Ness said. "But it's not like there's nothing we can do," Ness said after a moment of consideration.
Angor looked at Ness and waited for an explanation.
"Find a space manipulator. They should be able to do it."
Ness had never seen a space manipulator stabilizing a space ripple from a distance, but he had seen a space manipulator's "Time Bomb", which was a spell used to set up a space trap from afar. If they could set up a space trap from afar, they should be able to do the same from afar.
"Of course, it doesn't have to be a space manipulator. If they have learned the sequence of space, they should be able to control space from a certain distance."
As far as Angor knew, there were even fewer space manipulators who could learn the sequence of space than space manipulators.
"Is there any other way?"
"Find a truth-finder sorcerer who knows a thing or two about spatial mezzanines," Ness said.
In essence, the truth-finder wizard would have to approach Kanter's coordinates in the real world from another space ripple. Once the ripple overlapped with the coordinates of the real world, the truth-finder wizard would be able to affect the real world to a certain extent.
It was impossible to forcefully interfere with the real world through an entire space ripple. Therefore, if they wanted to stabilize the space ripples, they would have to resort to a more "metaphysical" method.
Compared to the first method, this method was more demanding.
Opening a Space Mezzanine required the materials of a plane passageway, which was very expensive.
Even if he could open the interlayer, he still needed to be a truth-finder wizard.
The so-called True Knowledge meant that one had their own path and would not be swayed by complicated information. This allowed truth-finder wizards to remain focused in the endless void and not lose their sense of self.
On top of that, the truth-finder wizard would also have to understand the interlayer of space and know how to set up a stable space, which was even more restrictive. Only truth-finder wizards with rich experience and a deep foundation could achieve such a feat.
A new truth-finder wizard like Sumesh couldn't do anything about it. Sumesh was also a poor man. He probably didn't use the plane passageway many times. If he wanted to know more about Space Mezzanines, he'd have to use the plane passageway hundreds or thousands of times.
Ness said, "There are definitely many ways, but these are the only two that I can think of."
As Ness spoke, Filo's voice transmitted through their Spirit Bond.
"Are the fruits becoming more attractive?" Filo asked.
"No." With the help of his Force Field, Angor could quickly tell what was going on.
"No?" Filo muttered. "That's strange."
Ness asked, "Did something happen on your side?
"We noticed that the sea monsters are being attracted to a wider area. The sea beasts outside the arc of reefs were basically unaffected by the fruit. But now, even the sea beasts outside the arc of reefs are already moving in the direction of the fruit. "
This meant that the fruits were attracting more sea monsters.
"Maybe the fruits have a mind of their own? Maybe they noticed that the fruits are ripening slower, so they're trying to attract more sea monsters? "Filo guessed.
"Whatever it is, you need to think of a solution as soon as possible. If you can't, ask for help while you can."
With that, Filo and X3 began to chase the sea monsters away.
Angor and Ness looked at each other with grim expressions.
This wasn't a good sign. If the sea monsters were attracted to a wider area, X3 would have to chase them away more often.
It might not be a problem now, but when the range expanded to a certain extent, X3 probably would not be able to take care of it completely. And there was one more thing to consider, which was X3's limit. Using her ability would definitely consume some of her energy, so it was very likely that before the range expanded to its limit, X3 herself would not be able to hold on.
After a moment of silence, Angor looked at Inspector Watcher who had been watching them with cold eyes.
"Sir, does the fruit have a mind of its own?"
"It's attracting more sea monsters?" Inspector Watcher asked.
Angor nodded.
"I don't know if the fruit has a mind of its own. But I'm sure the host of the fruit has a mind of its own. "Inspector Watcher was referring to 03.
If 03 really was helping the fruit to ripen, then it might have noticed something and actively increased the attraction.
"We don't have much time, and we don't know what's going on yet. We can't wake Mister Eventide up on our own. Let's do what Filo said and ask for help. "
"Also, the two methods I mentioned can only be done by outside help."
Angor agreed. X3 was still holding on, so they still had a chance to ask for help. But if they kept waiting, they might not have the time to do so.
Angor focused his mind on the Tree of Authority and opened his eyes several seconds later. "I need to maintain the gravitational field. You go. Oh, my professor is online. You can contact him. "
Ness nodded quickly. He took out a monocle from his pocket and put it on. Then, he took out a flying carpet and lay down on it. Soon, he fell asleep.
On the other side, the Overseer who had witnessed this scene only felt that his head was full of question marks.
What the hell was going on?
Wasn't he supposed to ask for help? Why did he suddenly fall asleep? And why did Angor look so confident?
Was this some kind of farce?
Inspector Watcher had been focusing most of his attention on the fruit in the distance, but he still paid some attention to Angor and Ness.
The Overseer heard their conversation clearly.
When Angor asked if he could stabilize the space in the distance, Inspector Watcher already knew what Angor was trying to do.
Angor's idea was correct, but Ness' method of stabilizing space was a bit off.
It wasn't that Ness' suggestion was wrong. It was just that they didn't fit the current situation.
A space manipulator? A sequence of space? Who has it? Do you have it?
A truth-finder wizard who knows about space interlayers and spatial rituals? Do you have all these prerequisites? Is there someone like that around here? Can you find them?
Since neither of these methods was suitable for the current situation, Inspector Watcher shook his head.
As Inspector Watcher, he had a solution that could satisfy both Angor and Ness' needs. However, he couldn't say it out loud because it was against the rules of Inspector Watchers.
But at least he could give them some hints.
For Frost's sake, Inspector Watcher already thought about how he should do it.
Whenever Angor asked, Inspector Watcher would reject him directly and use some words, gestures, and expressions to tell Angor to figure it out himself.
But Angor didn't ask for help at all.
What was even more ridiculous was that Angor and Ness simply discussed their plan, and then Ness went to ask for help. As for how? Sleep.
If Inspector Watcher didn't know about Dream Manipulators in the southern wizarding region, he would have thought that the southern wizarding region had developed a "dream" method.
There was no such spell in the southern wizarding region.
Nor did Dream Manipulators in the origin world develop long-distance dream manipulation spells.
Therefore, the scene in front of him was very strange in the eyes of the overseer. It was completely an absurd and unruly humorous drama.
Still, Inspector Watcher was still confused. Angor and Ness didn't have to "act" in front of him. They didn't have the guts to do so. So what was the point of acting like this?
Could it be that they could really get outside help?
Nessie suddenly woke up as the overseer's mind was filled with thoughts.
He took off his monocle and nodded at the watcher who was observing him. "I've informed them."
"What did he say?"
Ness said unhappily, "What can I say? I'm using your name, so he won't refuse. But it's an emergency, so I didn't have time to tell him the details. He thought we were in danger and asked me to pay for the materials used in the plane passageway. That won't do. You have to explain it to him when he comes. "
"Mister Eventide is the leader of Lilith Clan, and Lilith Clan is an ally of Phantom Island. It has nothing to do with me. I'm free now, and I can leave whenever I want. It has nothing to do with me! "
Ness quickly explained, and he didn't want to take any responsibility at all.
However, from a slightly selfish point of view, what he said was actually not wrong.
However, Ness didn't do what he said. He didn't leave Kanter behind, which meant Angor didn't believe him.
Seeing this, Angor nodded. "I'll explain it to the professor."
Ness' eyes lit up. "Oh, and Mister Eventide, I saved him. I've saved him, so shouldn't he also …? "
"If Mister Kanter didn't come here, he wouldn't have encountered such a thing. Think carefully before you say anything. Don't forget that I still have the information you want. "
Ness was taken aback and hurriedly retracted his words. "What you said makes a lot of sense! Let's do it according to the contract … "
Angor ignored Ness and began to stabilize the space around them.
Since he had Sunders' blood on him, Sunders' blood would still be able to locate him. The space ripples around them were strong, so Angor needed to stabilize them first. Otherwise, the exit of the plane passageway would be destroyed.
The watcher grew even more confused as he waited for Angor to stabilize the space ripples.
The conversation between Angor and Ness couldn't be faked.
In other words, Angor really trusted Ness, and he already called his professor here.
But … was it real?
And if so, how did Ness do it?
The watcher had so many questions in his mind. He wanted to ask them, but if what Angor and Ness said was true, his ignorance would be exposed.
While Inspector Watcher was pondering, Angor had already stabilized the space ripples around them. Now that Ness was talking to Filo through their Spirit Bond, Angor decided to join Inspector Watcher.
"Mister Inspector, I sensed a sadness in the air above the mist zone. Is Schiz Larva … dead?"
Inspector Watcher gave Angor a thoughtful look. "Some people thought it was dead. But as a Chosen of Sky and Sea, it won't die so easily."
"You mean it's not dead?"
Inspector Watcher continued, "But it's not far from death. There's no way to save it. Unless its bloodline ancestor or the lord of Phantom City comes, there's still hope."
"So you're saying it's not the same Schiz Larva that came to Phantom City this time?"
"You sure know how to draw inferences." Inspector Watcher didn't answer directly. Angor didn't need to know about Boroye's arrival.
"Sir, did the shadow come to the lab to steal No.01's bottle?" Angor chuckled when he saw that the Watcher did not refuse his request.
Bottle? Inspector Watcher frowned. Wasn't the shadow there to locate the coordinates and attract the lab's attention? What's the bottle? He considered for a moment and decided to use the law of distortion to check what Angor had done in the lab.
Angor took out the Geometric Lock from his bracelet.
"Mister Inspector Watcher, this is the bottle."
Inspector Watcher took a look at the lock and began to distort the laws in his eyes. The image of Angor retrieving the bottle appeared in his mind.
The Sentinel shook his head. "The Shadow of the Mist isn't here for it. Everything it did in the lab was because it discovered that the people in the lab were going to hunt the Schiz larvae. It wanted to attract the people in the lab back, so it destroyed everything."
"I see," Angor said. "Then why did it choose this bottle over everything else?"
