"Davosia and Menavaro?" Angor muttered. "Those two …"
Davosia was like a gourmet wizard. He could turn everything he saw into food. Menavaro, on the other hand, was a monster with tentacles that could drive people crazy. Its tentacles were the main ingredients for creating Distorted Seeds.
"What's the situation at the ruin?" Angor asked.
"Thanks to the protection of the barrier, as well as Iron Granny and Mister Rein, no one is dead yet. The only one who got injured is Greya."
Greya? Angor was surprised. Greya was a wizard from Candy House. She only stayed in Brute Cavern to wait for Sunders to help her find her missing body. Wasn't she staying at Phantom Island? Why did she go to the ruin too?
"She was attracted by Wavasia's power. Wavasia was the one who injured her. Wavasia was the one who lured her there. One of her arms was turned into a piece of bread. "
"I see." If it was Davosia, Greya would definitely be attracted.
"However, although no one died, the situation at the scene is not ideal. Several Magi have already descended into madness, and the most frightening thing is that this madness is like a virus, spreading among the crowd."
"Like what happened in Sleepless City?"
Sunders frowned. "It's stronger than the parasitic light spots in the Evernight Kingdom. Even wizards can't handle it."
Angor roughly understood the situation at the Astral Pool Ruin from Sunders' explanation.
Davosia was the only one who injured the wizards. However, Menavaro was even more terrifying on the battlefield. Anyone who was hit by its tentacles would become a crazed believer. Even those who weren't touched by the tentacles and simply listened to its whispers would be taken over by madness.
Several wizards had fallen into madness because of this.
Even if Tree Spirit tried to purify them with his own power, he still couldn't drive them out of their madness.
Brute Cavern had suffered a great loss while the front line of the ruin seemed to be in a stable state. Angor wasn't sure if these wizards could be saved.
"It looks like a stalemate now. But as time goes by, Brute Cavern will be the one to suffer."
"Is that Witch Maya's prophecy?"
"You can say that, yes. After all, the people you mentioned earlier haven't appeared yet. If they also appear, then the barrier around the ruins probably won't be able to seal it. "
Right now, Dhavana and Manawaro were already at a disadvantage. If Mi Jin Niang, Boiling Gentleman … and the most powerful Minister Nuka also appeared, then the consequences would be unimaginable.
"The ruin was still stable, and the Land of Heart hasn't fully arrived yet. They shouldn't be able to invade the real world so easily. So why did they do this all of a sudden?" Angor wondered.
"I'm waiting for you because I wanted to ask you the same question."
Angor was a little surprised. "What? Are you asking me? "
"You really don't know anything about what happened to the ruin?" Sunders stared at Angor with glaring eyes.
Angor wondered why Sunders would ask such a question. How could the man know about the ruin in the Mist Zone?
"According to the information I received, the maid went to Devil's Water after breaking out of the encirclement."
Devil Sea? Black and white maids? Did something happen in the ruin?
Angor's mind was filled with a series of questions. When they all settled down, a pair of innocent and pitiful eyes slowly appeared in his mind.
"That's it! The Spotted Puppy! "Angor quickly realized something." They came for the Spotted Puppy! "
Last time, Dalmatian didn't leave the Heart of Lamia, which caused quite a commotion in the ruins. Everyone in the Land of Heart was looking for the Spotted Puppy.
This time, the Spotted Puppy left the Land of Heart, which meant it was going to cause a bigger commotion.
"Spotted Puppy? You mean that Mystery creature?" Sunders frowned.
Angor nodded. "Yes. The Spotted Puppy is Minister of Arms Tim's favorite. Every time it leaves, Tim will show up. I have a feeling that both Minister Nuka and the nightmare creatures in Sleepless City are afraid of Minister Dim. That's why they're so eager to send the spotted dog back home. "
"So the Spotted Puppy is in the wizarding world right now?"
Angor didn't want to hide the truth from Sunders, but now that the ruin was already in danger, he decided not to. "Yes. Actually, the reason why I decided to go back to the center of the mist zone is because I received news that the Spotted Puppy is coming …"
Sunders wasn't too surprised. When he heard Angor mentioning the Spotted Puppy, he already thought about how Angor suddenly decided to go back to the mist zone. "So the Spotted Puppy is the winner of the mist zone?"
Angor considered and nodded. "Sort of."
"That mysterious item was also taken by the dalmatian …"
Angor nodded. "It did."
Swallowed it?! Sunders thought he could accept everything calmly, but when he heard that the Spotted Puppy swallowed the Mystery Fruit that caused the entire southern wizarding region to panic, his heart skipped a beat.
"Then you —"
"I was swallowed too."
Sunders was speechless.
Angor looked at Sunders' strange expression and realized that his words might have misunderstood something. "Don't worry, I'm fine. Last time in Sleepless City, the Spotted Puppy swallowed me, which gave me a lot of benefits. It's the same this time. But … "
"But what?"
Angor was going to tell Sunders that Gruz, Howard, and the others were also swallowed by the Spotted Puppy. But he didn't think it was necessary since Sunders didn't know about it. The more he knew, the more trouble he would get.
"Nothing."
Sunders gave Angor a thoughtful look. He knew Angor was hiding something from him, but he didn't ask. "Did the Spotted Puppy say when it will go back?"
Angor scratched his head. "I don't think it did. But I'll go offline and talk to it."
It was difficult to solve the problem in the ruin once and for all, but the only way to solve it was to let the Spotted Puppy go back as soon as possible. Angor decided to go offline and talk to the Spotted Puppy. If it didn't want to go back, he would drag it with him.
With that, Angor's figure blurred as he prepared to go offline.
"Wait," said Sunders.
Angor hesitated and looked at Sunders.
"You said something good happened to you when you were swallowed into the dog's stomach. Is it the Mystery Fruit?"
Angor shook his head. "No. It's something about the nature of space. I'll tell you the details later, professor. There's something else you won't expect. "
"The Time Thief!"
When Sunders widened his eyes in shock, Angor's figure vanished from sight.
Sunders watched Angor disappear and sighed in relief. "He did that on purpose, didn't he?"
Angor purposely mentioned the Time Thief to keep Sunders in suspense, then ran away?
Sunders rubbed his forehead. Angor was much cuter when he first joined Brute Cavern. Now … it was hard to explain.
Sunders had a hunch that Angor would cause trouble in the mist zone.
Now he was sure that Angor really did cause trouble. Although the Spotted Puppy was the one who did it, Angor still contributed a lot to the incident.
Sunders sighed on the spot.
In the past, Sunders could still clean up after Angor's messes. But now, Angor's troubles were getting bigger and bigger, and Sunders could no longer help him.
It was time for him to get stronger. Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to clean up his student's mess.
"Isn't that right, Black?"
Sunders' eyes turned pure black for a second, including the whites of his eyes. But soon, they returned to normal.
…
Angor planned to talk about old times with Leon, but there was no time for that now. He quickly logged off. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a pair of curious eyes looking at him from head to toe.
The puppy suddenly jumped onto the table from Angor's arms and craned its head to observe Angor.
However, when Angor opened his eyes again, the puppy's gaze quickly changed from inquisitive to innocent. It even barked innocently and wagged its tail like crazy.
"Stop pretending. I saw it."
The puppy didn't care about Angor's words at all. It even tilted its head and tried to act cute.
Angor didn't want to waste time on the puppy. "The Maid of Black and White is here for you."
The puppy's wagging tail slowed down.
"Dawasia and Mai Navarro left Xinnai's Land as well. Maybe they'll come too. "
The puppy wagged its tail even more slowly.
"I don't know if Mister Boiling and Minister Nuka will come looking for you. But if you don't go back soon, I'm sure Minister Dim will come too."
The puppy stopped wagging its tail and sat down on the table, looking at Angor in the eye.
"There are things I have to do in this world, and people I have to protect. Minister Nuka or Minister Dim from Xinnai's Land might hurt the people I want to protect. "
"Just like how I want to protect you. If you get hurt, I'll be sad too."
Angor reached out a hand and placed it on the table.
The puppy hesitated and moved closer to Angor's hand. He lifted the creature's front legs and looked into its eyes.
"So, it's time for you to go home."
The puppy looked into Angor's eyes for a few seconds and barked several times.
For the first time, Angor understood the puppy's meaning. It didn't want to leave.
"I have to go back even if I don't want to," Angor said. "Also, you can use the void network to contact me if you need anything. As long as you don't bark at me, we can talk normally. "
"Woof woof!" The puppy barked again, but Angor did not understand what it meant this time.
"Let's go back."
The puppy rubbed its head against Angor's forehead without saying anything.
"I'll let you know if I'm going to the monthly gathering at Xinnai's Land. You can come too. Just don't wander off so we can meet again. " Angor considered for a moment. "Also, I might go to the Nightmare Realm soon. If you have the chance and don't get discovered, we might meet again."
The puppy raised its head and looked at Angor with shining eyes.
"I won't lie to you. Don't worry."
Angor wasn't lying to the puppy. As the controller of nightmare illusions, he couldn't stay away from the Nightmare Realm for too long. Like Sunders, he would go to the Nightmare Realm to improve his abilities.
Therefore, his promise to meet the puppy in the Nightmare Realm wasn't a lie. As for when exactly "soon" was going to happen, it was hard to say.
The puppy whimpered again. Angor understood what it meant this time. The dog agreed to help.
Angor was relieved as long as the puppy agreed to go home.
Next, Angor went to the dream wasteland and told Sunders about the situation. Before Sunders could ask more questions, Angor logged off again.
The puppy agreed to go home, but it couldn't leave right away. They still had a lot of problems to deal with.
For example, what should they do with the two people in the white room?
Angor didn't want the puppy to leave, so he kept them in the white room so that the puppy could control them.
But now that the puppy was leaving, the white room would disappear as well. Angor had to figure out how to deal with Gluzdergard's clones as well as Boroye.
Angor couldn't do anything about them. One of them was a suspected mid-tier legend, while the other was a near-legendary creature. How could he deal with them?
He had to ask the watcher for help.
With that in mind, Angor looked at the soundproof room.
In the quiet room, the Sentinel was still having a hard time communicating with Wang Wang about his plan.
Angor didn't bother to listen because he knew that the plan was going to change soon.
"Mister Watcher, there's a change in the plan. Can you and Woof please come out for a moment?"
The watcher didn't get angry because of Angor's interruption. Instead, he sighed in relief. Talking to Woof was too difficult. Woof couldn't talk, and it didn't know much about the human world. The watcher wasn't talking to Woof about his plan.
The watcher was glad to get some rest. However, he didn't know what Angor meant by "change in the plan".
Soon, the watcher and Woof returned to the dining table.
Angor didn't waste time. "I think the puppy is leaving."
