Inside the Chamber of Solitude.
"Are you going to stay here, mister?" A voice came from a dog hole on the wall.
Angor picked up the Geometric Lock from the ground and answered, "I've just finished studying Sweet Dream. I need to record some experimental data while my memory is still fresh. If I get inspired, I might even try alchemy."
Angor looked around. "Alright, I'll stay here. There's no one here for now."
The air was silent for a moment before a voice came from the dark dog hole again. "Then I'll go back and report to the Lord Ruler."
Angor nodded. "Go, Geng Gui."
Dabao, who was still inside the dog hole, didn't react much to being called "Geng Gui". It was used to it.
"I'll be on my way then."
Angor nodded. "By the way, Geng Gui, I'll need a quiet place later. I might use the Geometric Lock to seal up the chamber.
"If Lady Adanis or the Wise Ruler asks, just tell them."
Da Bao: "I understand."
Seeing that Angor didn't say anything else, Dabao closed the hole and disappeared from the chamber.
Angor sighed in relief after making sure that Dabao was gone.
He didn't want anyone to see what he was going to do next.
He was going to use the Dream Whelk to drag the entire chamber into the dream wasteland.
Angor already planned to bring the Chamber of Solitude into the dream wasteland. This way, he could familiarize himself with the chamber in advance, and he would be prepared if he had to go to the Nightmare Realm's Chamber of Solitude in the future.
However, using the Dream Whelk in such a large area wouldn't be able to hide the Mystery aura. And the aura might attract Adanis and the Wise Lord's attention.
It wouldn't matter if Adanis found out, but the Wise Lord might be able to figure something out.
Besides, once the dream wasteland was opened to the public, the Wise Lord would surely figure out what Angor did in the chamber.
Angor was hesitant about whether he should drag the chamber into the dream wasteland.
But now, he made up his mind because Laplace asked him to craft a mirror in the outside world.
It gave him an idea.
He had gone to the Mirror Realm to study Sweet Dream. He had gained inspiration from studying Sweet Dream. Alchemy was normal, right?
Wasn't it normal to need an absolutely quiet space when performing alchemy?
His inspiration was bursting, and he once again touched the edge of mystery. It was normal for him to create an alchemy product with a mysterious aura, right?
It just so happened that he also wanted to refine a mirror. Wasn't this a coincidence?
Everything was so logical. Even if the Sovereign of the Wise had discovered that something was wrong, Laplace would have been the one to vouch for him. After all, Laplace was the one who had requested the creation of the mirror.
No one would think that Angor was only trying to cover up the mysterious ripple caused by the Dream Whelk pulling the Chamber of Poetry.
Of course, he didn't want to cause too much of a commotion. That was why he used Geometric Lock to cover the entire chamber.
This way, they could ensure that the mysterious aura would not leak out.
Even if it did leak out, there wouldn't be any problems as long as they followed the previous explanation.
With that in mind, he no longer hesitated.
He activated the Geometric Lock right away.
This time, the Geometrical Lock didn't grow as big as before. Instead, halos came out of the Geometrical Lock and covered the entire Clear Sky Poetry Room in an instant.
The Clear Sky Poetry Room seemed to be covered by a huge dome at this time.
The changes in the Clear Sky Poetry Room were immediately noticed by everyone in the Sage Hall. Adanis also sensed the layer of light that blocked out perception. She frowned and was about to return to the Clear Sky Poetry Room to check on the situation when Dabao appeared.
Dabao did his best to convey Angor's message to Adanis.
Adanis was still frowning, but she looked much more relaxed than before. "You've just finished studying Sweet Dream, and now you're doing alchemy? You've made progress so quickly? "
Hearing Adanis mumbling to herself, the Black Earl, who was floating in the air, said lightly, "Most alchemists have this habit. As long as they have the inspiration, they don't care where they are. Even if they are in the dark abyss, they will still do their alchemy without caring about anything else."
Adanis was an alchemist herself, so she could understand Black Earl's words. However, she never experienced such a situation herself. Her alchemy was more of a step-by-step process, rather than a sudden inspiration like this.
The Sage Ruler chuckled. "Inspiration doesn't come often. You must seize it as soon as you see it. It's an alchemist's instinct."
The Sage Ruler then looked at Dabao and asked about Angor's situation in the mirror domain.
"I didn't enter the mirror space either, so I don't know what Mister Angor is doing. But Mister Laplace and his three avatars all went to the mirror space … "
The Sage Ruler was a bit confused. Laplace and his avatars all went to the mirror space?
Why was that? Laplace could've gone alone. Why did he bring his avatars with him?
Did Angor really make great progress in his research? Did he need Laplace's avatars to help him?
"Angor is a member of the Research Department," Count Black explained, "and he's a member of the Research Department. They're all geniuses among geniuses. They can find inspiration even in the smallest of details. It's only natural that Angor got an idea and started his alchemy. "
The reason why Dark Earl said this was because he had met many members of the Research and Development Department. He knew very well how good they were at grasping inspiration.
However, Black Earl only said that Angor "got an idea and started his alchemy". He couldn't guarantee what Angor could actually make.
Maybe a mid-tier alchemy item? Or was it a high-grade alchemy tool?
Black Earl knew that Angor had made a high-tier alchemy item before, but he still preferred a mid-tier one. A high-tier alchemy item's omen wasn't easy to get through. Even if Angor could make a high-tier item, he would probably suppress its level to avoid getting lost in the omen.
As for a Mystery item … Black Earl didn't think about it at all.
If Mystery items were so easy to make, there wouldn't be no Mystery alchemists in the southern wizarding region for so many years.
There were plenty of Mystery items in the southern wizarding region, but not a single Mystery alchemist.
Angor was the only one who was close to becoming a Mystery alchemist. However, Angor's current level was still too low. It would be difficult for him to make a Mystery item.
Count Dark didn't believe that Angor could make a Mystery item, but his words had cleared everyone's doubts.
Even Edanis's furrowed brows relaxed.
It was normal that Angor got an idea and started his alchemy. He chose the Chamber of Solitude, but there wasn't anything he shouldn't see in there anyway.
The only thing that worried Adanis was that she hoped Angor wouldn't take out Mary King on a whim.
After all, Mary King was Olao's real body.
Meanwhile, Angor had already begun his alchemy preparations.
He was going to craft a mirror this time, but he had already decided on the grade of the mirror.
It wasn't a mid-tier or high-tier item like Black Earl expected. It was a low-tier item.
Black Earl was worried that Angor would get lost in the omen, but Angor was also worried about that. So he decided to make a low-tier item right from the start.
Normally speaking, low-tier items wouldn't cause omens. Even if they did, they would only be simple ones.
However, Angor was already prepared for the omen. He wasn't just going to make a low-tier item. He was also going to use "Mad Hatter's Coronation".
Mad Hatter's Coronation would probably turn a low-tier item into a mid-tier one.
In that case, it would be more difficult to trigger the omen. Still, Angor could handle the omen of a mid-tier item.
If the item he made turned into a high-tier item because of "Mad Hatter's Coronation", he would have to be careful.
However, Angor was only thinking about "White Hat's Coronation".
White Hat's Coronation could improve the runes. If the runes were complete, they would improve the effect and leave a certain Mystery aura behind.
Of course, there was also a chance of "Black Hat's Coronation".
The Black Hat's Coronation could change the runes in a completely different way, which meant it would have a special effect.
Feng said the probability of "Black Hat's Coronation" was low. However, Angor had already seen it twice. The first time was when he was making a scroll in Sunlight Garden, which became the Sunlight Shrine because of "Black Hat's Coronation". The second time was when he was drawing an Invisibility Magic Array in Princess' Town, which led to the appearance of "Rabbit Chacha".
If "Black Hat's Coronation" really happened, Angor would look forward to it even more.
After all, "Black Hat's Coronation" didn't come from normal alchemy. One of them was making magic scrolls, while the other was drawing magic arrays. Black Hat's Coronation wouldn't cause any omen.
Angor really wanted to know what the omen would be like if "Black Hat's Coronation" appeared this time.
Angor knew that the omen would become more dangerous if "Black Hat's Coronation" appeared. However, as an alchemist, he couldn't just avoid omens forever.
In other words, Angor was taking a gamble this time.
If he wanted to use "Crazy Hat's Coronation", he had to be prepared. If "White Hat's Coronation" appeared, he would have to be careful when crafting a low-tier item.
If "Black Hat's Coronation" appeared, Angor wouldn't be afraid to face the unknown omen head-on.
Angor's mind was in a dilemma, but his hands remained steady.
He took out all the materials he needed this time. They were all low-tier materials, but they were all of good quality, which would help with the alchemy effect.
The most important ones were: Ancient Silk Platinum, Stone Heart of White Dense Stone, Kunbu Silver, and Biguanide Methyl.
There were about a dozen auxiliary materials, most of which were not used to craft the item. For example, Melted Flame Flower and Locust Water were used to increase the temperature of the item quickly.
After taking out the materials, he already had an idea of how to make the potion.
He planned to craft a half-mirror the size of an ordinary portrait.
The whole thing was to be pieced together and embedded with runes.
Ancient Silk Platinum would be the material for the frame, Stone Heart of White Dense Stone would be used to stabilize the space, Kunbu Silver would be used as the mirror surface, and Biguanide Methyl would be used as the core effect.
Biguanide Methyl's property was "Sturdy".
Angor's biggest requirement for this half-mirror was that it should be sturdy and would not break easily.
Angor could add many other effects, but this time, he only wanted the "Sturdy" effect at the core. The other effects would be replaced by runes.
He already had an idea, and the mirror itself was a simple low-tier item.
Angor worked quickly. About half an hour later, he finished all the parts of the mirror.
Angor could have done it even faster. For example, he could make a large number of items at once. However, this was a serious alchemy task, so Angor still took every step seriously.
He even spent some time carving the emblem that said "Made by Angor" on the mirror.
Angor rarely added his own emblem when crafting low-tier items. But this time, he was going to use Mad Hatter's Coronation. Whether it was a white hat or a black hat, the Mystery aura would still be there.
The mirror was for his own use, but the Mystery aura on it could easily attract unwanted attention.
To avoid unnecessary trouble later, Angor carved the emblem on it to show that he made it himself.
When everything was done, Angor finally began to carve the runes.
The process of carving the runes was quite complicated. To hide the Mystery rune from the Mad Hatter's Coronation, Angor had to carve a special concealment rune as well as a linked rune. If someone tried to remove the rune, the linked rune would destroy the hidden rune.
The runes on the inside of the mirror were all intricate work. Besides, Angor had to maintain a steady supply of mana while carving the runes, which was also a challenge.
Even if Angor had to carve the runes himself, it was still very tiring.
Time passed slowly, and three hours later, it was finally time for the last mageweath to be inscribed.
On the surface, he didn't seem to be doing anything different. However, he was already using Overmind to multitask. Several Hand of Spell appeared behind him. It looked like he was going to do something big.
And he was right. In the next second, he was going to use Mad Hatter's Coronation.
Once Mad Hatter succeeded, the mirror's crafting would come to an end. By then, both the white hat and the black hat would be surrounded by the Mystery aura.
This was also the perfect moment for Angor to use the Dream Whelk to pull the Chamber of Poetry into the dream wasteland.
