All in all, the connection between Cazider World and the south would bring more benefits than disadvantages.
"But the timing is too coincidental," Ness spoke in a low voice.
The others were not stupid, they all realized something when Ness mentioned it.
"Could this be No.01's escape route?" Angor asked in a low voice.
Coincidentally, he appeared when No. 01 was courting death. This was really a coincidence.
Maybe No.01 purposely chose this time to kill Shiz larvae.
No.01 knew clearly that he could not resist the pursuit of the Phantom City. He could escape this time, but he might not be able to escape the next time. Unless he directly leaped above the legendary realm, then there might be a slight possibility that the Phantom City would give up chasing him, but this was obviously impossible.
No.01 did not even have a solid foundation on the path of truth. If he wanted to reach the level that the Phantom City feared, he would need hundreds or thousands of years to do so.
In such a hopeless situation, No. 01 might really choose this path.
Using the words taught by Jon, it was to face death and fight to live.
Death might not be the end, it might be another kind of new life.
No.01 was a formal wizard, once he died, there was a 99% chance that a dead soul would be born. The moment a dead soul appeared, Cazider World and the south would be connected. He could just turn around and enter Cazider World without resisting the attraction.
As long as he could gain a foothold in Cazider World, no matter how difficult it was, even if it was a path of no return, it was still a path.
As for how No.01 knew when Cazider World and the south would be connected? It was simple. Snooker Base was related to a certain soul organization in Cazider World, and No.01 was the person in charge of the southern base. It should not be hard for him to know the time.
"I thought he was ready to go crazy and die. But entering Cazider World was his final plan." Nessie sighed. Although they couldn't be sure if Nessie 01 had calculated this beforehand, it seemed that the possibility was very high.
"But will this plan succeed?" Angor looked at the direction of the lab. He did not have much hope for No.01's plan.
If No.01 behaved himself and did not touch Shiz larvae, he might be able to hide from the Phantom City's pursuers by going to Cazider World as a dead soul.
However, he still wanted to go crazy at the last moment and attract the attention of the Phantom City. It would be difficult for him to escape.
It could only be said that 01 was still holding on to a fluke, and wanted to bite off a piece of Gruz Dade's flesh before he died. That way, even if he became an undead and went to Cazider World, he would still be able to live peacefully.
However, in the face of a Legendary-level existence, the benefits of luck would be infinitely low.
He wasn't optimistic about 01's chances, but he believed that 01 was quite brave to set up such a trap.
No one cared about what happened to Number 01. After all, it had nothing to do with them.
As for the matter of Cazider World and the Southern Mountain Range connecting, it wasn't a big deal, and everyone basically ignored it. Only Ness would say a few words about it, but only for Reynolds to hear.
Nessie did not want Reynolds to be taken away by the Cazider World, he had his eyes on Reynolds' soul. He didn't care if it was alive, but if it was dead, he would definitely snatch it back.
And so, with Nessie constantly warning Reynolds, they came to Reef Island.
The Reef Island was calm and peaceful.
Due to the disappearance of the mist, the night sky hung high in the sky. The scattered reef islands on the black sea looked like jewels because of the piles of corals, which gave them a beautiful feeling.
However, such beautiful scenery could only be seen when the mist disappeared. And this was probably the only time the mist disappeared after so many years.
High up in the sky, Angor already saw the people on the Reef Island.
Nausica, Cindy, and the others were talking around a campfire. Judging from the way they looked at Nausica, Angor could tell that Nausica had easily integrated into their group. From the details, it seemed like Nausica was the core of the group.
Perhaps this was Nausica's charm.
She wasn't the kind of person who liked to get close to people easily. Sometimes, she even acted cold for some reason. However, she had this kind of aura that made people trust her and attracted everyone's attention.
Apart from her strength, her charisma as a leader was also the reason why Nausica, as a woman, was able to dominate the pirate throne of Blackberry Waters.
When everyone landed, Cindy and the others all bowed to Angor respectfully.
Nausica smiled at Angor. They only looked at each other without saying anything, but Angor could tell that Nausica was relaxed. As long as he was alive.
"Mister, why is it sunny? Also, I felt my heart skipping a beat just now. "
"It's not just that. I think I felt something in the sea too. It was sad. But I didn't feel it for a second. I'm starting to wonder if I was hallucinating."
Cindy and the others all came to Ness and asked about the situation.
"Why don't you ask Wizard Filo? He should be here before us, right? "
"We did, but Mister Filo didn't tell us anything," the fat apprentice replied.
"If Wizard Filo didn't tell us, do you think I'll tell you?" Ness knocked the fat apprentice's head. "Don't ask. The more you know, the more danger you'll be in. If you're not afraid of dying, I can tell you. Do you want to hear it? "
The apprentices all shook their heads.
After sending the chattering apprentices away, they met up with Filo.
Without wasting time, they decided to leave the mist zone as soon as possible. There were already two legendary-level combatants in the center of the mist zone, as well as a Mystery item with unknown effects that was about to go out of order. Staying here would be risky.
"If we want to leave, we can go this way," said Angor as he pointed at a direction.
Sunders looked at the direction Angor pointed at. They could leave the mist zone from there as well, but they had to take a detour. They didn't want to leave as soon as possible.
"Why this way?" Sunders was confused.
"That's where Ghost Dock Island is. Maybe Angor wants to check it out," Ness explained.
Ghost Dock Island? Sunders gave Angor a puzzled look as he never heard of this place before.
"There's someone on the island. I used some Crafting Water on him. I want to see how he's doing. If he can break free, maybe I can take him back to Brute Cavern. "
Angor was talking about Lunk. Lunk saved Nausica's life before, and Angor admired the man's temperament. He was willing to take a detour to see what happened.
Sunders frowned. "Talent? No matter how rare they are, they won't be useful to us if they haven't gone through a life-and-death battle. "
Angor understood Sunders' idea about talents. Back then, Sunders used a deathmatch in the nine cabins. In the end, only nine talents survived. Angor didn't like the idea of wasting manpower for no reason, but he didn't say anything. I didn't go through a life-and-death battle back then either …
Sunders didn't ask any more questions since Angor didn't want to talk about it. It wasn't a big deal to bring a talent along.
After making up their mind, they boarded Gondola.
Even though Gondola was a little overloaded with people, it didn't affect its speed at all. With the Speed Spirit, Gondola's speed wouldn't be affected.
Sunders kept looking at Angor on their way to Ghost Dock Island. He had a lot of questions he wanted answers to. What happened at the center of the mist zone was too strange. He didn't know much about it, but he couldn't see the whole picture.
However, he couldn't bring himself to ask the question several times.
He didn't want Angor to drop another bomb.
In order not to get scared, Sunders decided to ask Ness when they got back. Ness had been following Angor all this time, so he should know what happened.
With that in mind, Sunders decided not to ask any more questions. Instead, he changed the topic to something else.
"By the way, Kanter, why did you come with us?" Sunders looked at Kanter who was still in a daze. His face was still pale.
"I didn't come with you. Ness asked me to help him explore his lab, and we even signed a contract." Kanter shook his head. "Everything was going well, but I didn't expect that when I was about to leave, I almost screwed up."
"You signed a contract with Ness? That's not your style. "
Kanter nodded. "I didn't want to come either. I heard that Angor is here, and I want to see him."
He remembered that Kanter mentioned that he needed to talk to him about something. But Kanter didn't tell him what it was.
"Do you need something from me, sir?"
Kanter looked around and saw Sunders, Ness, Filo, and the others looking at him curiously. He cleared his throat. "Later. I'll tell you in private."
"Can't we listen?" Ness narrowed his eyes.
"Angor is the only one who can help. You can listen if you want, but you'll have to do something for him. Don't worry, I'll pay you back for your help. "
Seeing Kanter's serious promise, no one dared to ask further.
They were afraid that Kanter would ask for something unreasonable.
Even Ness, who was always curious, didn't ask.
Kanter chuckled and looked at Angor. "This is a little troublesome for us, so I hope you can help us. Of course, it's fine if you can't. "
Angor didn't mind. Kanter had helped him a lot. As long as it wasn't too much, Angor would try his best to help.
Under the full speed of the Speedy Spirit, they quickly arrived at Specter Dock Island.
This was the outer area of the mist zone, which was much quieter than Reef Island.
However, unlike the calm waters around Ghost Dock Island, the island was bustling with activity. Many people had gathered here, including Dock Number 4, where the Moonlight Bird was located.
The main reason they had gathered here was to leave.
The sky was clear, the rain stopped, and the mist was gone. They thought it was time to leave.
Although they didn't know why the weather was so good, and even the fog was gone, it wasn't important. For these people who were trapped on the island and longed for freedom, this was the best opportunity to leave.
Because of this, they were able to control their urge to fight and discuss how to leave peacefully. Of course, this was only so peaceful because of the mediation of the Moonlight Picture Bird, but this was also an incredible improvement.
Angor didn't care what they were talking about. He only came here for Lunk.
After disembarking from Gondola, the group headed towards the Moonlight Diagram Bird.
When they were about to board the ship, Nausica suddenly noticed that Angor had stopped walking.
"What's wrong?" Nausica looked at Angor in confusion.
"Go check on Lunk with Wizard Ness. I've got something to do." Nausica nodded.
Instead of boarding the ship, Angor left the dock and went to a secluded area.
Seeing that no one was looking at him, Angor used his spirit feelers to check his space bracelet.
After looking around the space bracelet for a while, he finally saw a faint purple silhouette.
…
On the Moonlight Bird.
Ness had already arrived at Lunk's room. He wasn't interested in Lunk's condition, but he was curious about the effect of the Crafting Water.
Crafting Water hadn't been seen for years, and it was rare to see someone using it. Ness wanted to see how Lunk would be "refined" by the potion. In a way, it was a good chance to learn something.
Lunk was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. His skin was red and hot, just like the last time Angor saw him.
However, he didn't scream in pain.
This meant Lunk had survived the initial pain. Now, Ness needed to see if Lunk could endure the potion's effect and unleash his potential.
While Ness was observing Lunk, someone pushed the door open.
Nausica came in.
Ness wasn't surprised. Sunders and Filo weren't interested in Lunk, so it was normal that they didn't come. Lunk helped Nausica before, so it was reasonable for her to come.
"Reynolds isn't with you?" Ness asked.
"He's with Mister Phantom."
Ever since Sunders learned about Reynolds' talent on Gondola, he became interested in the boy. This time, he didn't board the Moonlight Bird. Instead, he studied Reynolds.
"Sunders … I hope he won't fight with me. I'm the one who chose Reynolds."
Nausica didn't know what to say. She just smiled and didn't say anything.
"Where's Angor? Why isn't he here yet?"
"I don't know either." Nausica explained what happened.
Ness grumbled, "He's the one who suggested we take a detour. Now he's doing something else. What a strange guy. Never mind, let's not wait for him. I'll check on Lunk. "
