When the sack was slowly untied, a middle-aged man who was tied up tightly appeared in front of him.
Duke Tepikkhu was bound by Lydia as soon as he was infected, so he was still wearing normal clothes. However, his twisted arms and crazed eyes indicated that he had gone through a mutation.
Tepikkhu struggled fiercely. Even though he was tied up, it was difficult for the two guards to completely stabilize him.
Angor walked closer and saw Tepikkhu struggling harder.
When Angor was right next to Tepikkhu, Tepikkhu suddenly stopped struggling and lowered his head, not daring to look at Angor.
The guards looked at each other, and Domino was also surprised to see this. He wondered if the young sorcerer in front of him had used some kind of spell.
When Tepikkhu stopped struggling, Domino asked the doctor to give Tepikkhu a sedative. Tepikkhu didn't move and let the sedative slowly go into his arm.
"Lift his head," Angor said.
The guard slowly lifted Tepikkhu's head and looked at Angor in the eyes. Tepikkhu's crazed look was replaced by a hint of respect.
Everyone noticed the look of respect and fear in Tepikkhu's eyes. Domino saw this and suddenly regretted his big bet. He didn't know whether Angor was sent by Lady Lotus or not. He only listened to one side of the story and bet everything he had.
Now, he felt a little scared when looking at his father's eyes.
Even when his father looked at Lady Lotus' avatar, he didn't show such respect. But when he saw the young wizard in front of him, he was scared. Could it be that the young sorcerer was more powerful than Lady Lotus? No way. Domino clearly remembered that the young man called Lady Lotus "Lady Lotus" instead of her name. In the wizarding world, many things could be seen from the way the young man addressed Lady Lotus. If the young man used a respectful title, he must be weaker than Lady Lotus.
Then the current situation was a little strange.
Now that Midnight Sovereign was full of strange things, Domino was afraid of anything. He was starting to regret his decision. However, he didn't have the courage to back off.
After staring at Tepikkhu for several seconds, he tore off the seal on Tepikkhu's mouth.
Now that Tepikkhu could speak freely, he began to sing in a low voice. The others only thought his voice sounded strange, but Angor could tell that Tepikkhu was praising Shava.
"Shava … Shava again …" Angor muttered in his mind.
"Sir Magus? Are we leaving? " Domino looked at the misty fog outside. Although he couldn't hear the other mutants' singing, he was still a little afraid. He was afraid that in the next second, the bodyguard or he would suddenly be infected.
"Wait a moment. All of you, step back." After asking everyone to back off, Angor began to extract mana from his mana pool in his mind space. A cantrip model was quickly created.
When Angor opened his eyes, his surroundings suddenly changed.
Just a moment ago, he was still outside the dark study. The next second, he found himself in a luxurious hall.
The illusion only contained Angor and Tepikkhu. Everyone else was excluded from the illusion.
When Tepikkhu found himself in another place, he wasn't surprised at all. His eyes even showed some joy, as if he liked this environment very much.
At this moment, a teacup band that was playing weird songs floated out from a corner of the luxurious hall.
At the same time, red-skinned toy soldiers who were playing gongs and drums also came to Angor in two lines. It was as if they were welcoming a general back in triumph. However, these soldiers were only the size of a palm.
This wasn't an illusion. This was the Nightmare Domain that Sunders severed for him.
The Nightmare Domain of Luxury.
Angor tried to recall what Sunders told him.
"How do I wake them up?" Angor asked curiously after learning that the infected people could be brought back to life.
"Do you know what kind of parasite they're being infected by?"
"No." Angor shook his head.
"Back then, you accidentally opened a passage to the Nightmare Realm during Twilight Auction. You should know how many monsters came out of that passage," Sunders said, "Just as wizards have their own specialties, monsters have their own specialties. For example, the teacup band can repel and reflect attacks, while the toy soldiers can absorb and reflect energy. Among the demonic creatures you released, one of them is the one that caused the current situation. "
What kind of monster? He tried to recall which monsters managed to escape from the Nightmare Domain in the first place.
Froggy the Frog Singer, Fox the Harp Fox, Joker, and … a colorful light flashed in Angor's mind. "Rainbow dragonflies?"
"Yes, that's them." Sunders sighed. "Most of the dragonflies are only half-step wizards, so we didn't expect them to cause such a huge impact. That frog, fox, and the clown card had been hiding in the hall of Twilight Auction Hall all this time, and they attracted all our attention. But in the end, it was those insignificant dragonflies that caused the great changes in Twilight Auction and Midnight Sovereign. "
Back then, nearly a hundred dragonflies had escaped from the Nightmare Domain and disappeared. No one expected them to cause such a disaster half a month later.
"Those dragonflies built their nests at the two energy sources of Twilight Well, and within half a month, they produced countless fluorescent parasites.
"Those parasites are fast. Even wizards can't escape from them." Sunders paused for a moment before continuing, "But they aren't much of a threat to people like you and me who can control a Nightmare Domain. The real threat is the passage in the nests that released the mist. "
Sunders sent Angor to Twilight Well to close the passage. As for expelling the parasites, it was not a big deal. Sunders even said, "The longer the parasites stay in their bodies, the more benefits they'll get. You don't have to worry about them for now."
Because of that, Angor did not chase after the infected victims along the way.
Now that there was someone who could not move, Angor thought about the method Sunders taught him and wanted to try it out.
According to Sunders, the way to expel the parasites was to use the Nightmare Domain to lure the parasites out of their bodies.
There was a reason why Sunders said the parasites were not a big threat: unlike the rainbow dragonflies, they could not survive in the air of the wizarding world.
These parasites could not come into contact with the air of the wizarding world. Once they did, they would die. Therefore, they could only spread within the area shrouded by the fog.
The mist that covered Midnight Sovereign and Twilight Well came from the Nightmare Realm through a special tunnel. It contained a trace of the Nightmare Realm's aura.
The parasites could only survive in the presence of nightmare aura.
Because of this, the parasites were not difficult to deal with.
Of course, the parasites were not easy to deal with as long as Angor could get the mutants out of the mist.
Once the mutants were out of the mist, the parasites would no longer absorb energy from the outside world. Instead, the parasites would use their own energy to stay alive. These parasites only needed a small amount of energy, even less than other organs, and they could stay alive for a long time. They would not die, nor could they be expelled by Expelling spells.
However, if the mutants were killed now, the parasites would not be able to infect another person because they could not be exposed to the air of the wizarding world for even one second. This was considered as eliminating a parasite, but at the cost of the victim's death, which was not a good deal.
Since the parasites could not leave the nightmare aura, Sunders easily found a way to get rid of them. The mist outside was only an illusion, while the Nightmare Domain was the real Nightmare Realm.
Once a parasite entered the Nightmare Domain, it would become much more active and absorb the energy escaping from the Nightmare Domain. All the energy in the Nightmare Domain was controlled by the owner of the Nightmare Domain. Once the parasite absorbed the energy, the owner of the Nightmare Domain could expel it from the host's body.
Two hours ago, Angor did not know how to control the energy in the Nightmare Domain. He spent half a month doing alchemy to pay off his debt, so he did not have time to read The Mystery of Nightmare Domain.
In order to learn it as soon as possible, he followed Sunders' guidance on his way to the duke's mansion. Now, he finally learned something.
…
Just as Sunders said, Tepikkhu began to absorb the energy from the Nightmare Domain in large amounts.
Angor sensed where the energy was going. The energy was absorbed into an active sphere inside Tepikkhu's body.
Angor chuckled. Following Sunders' instructions, he gently pushed the sphere out of Tepikkhu's mouth.
The sphere fell into Angor's hand.
Meanwhile, Tepikkhu fainted on the ground.
Angor looked at the parasite in his hand. It was a small, glowing ball with many strange swirls on it, which looked like eyes. Angor could not help but shudder when he looked at it carefully.
The parasite did not dare to move from Angor's hand. Even if it tried to escape, Angor could still control it with the Nightmare Domain energy inside it.
"According to you, parasites belong to the Nightmare Realm, so they can be absorbed into the Nightmare Domain." Angor did not have time to study the parasite right now. He tossed it to the teacup band.
Since they were both from the Nightmare Realm, they should be able to live in harmony.
Next, Angor grabbed Tepikkhu and canceled the Nightmare Domain.
Earlier, when Angor dragged Tepikkhu into the Nightmare Domain, the others thought that Angor and Tepikkhu suddenly disappeared. Seeing this, Domino panicked and wanted to run into the Catacombs.
It was too dangerous to stay in the mist. Who knew if he would be "infected"?
However, before Domino could run far, he heard his old servant calling him, "Young Master, the wizard and master are here again."
Domino looked back, and sure enough, the young wizard appeared in the same place. At the same time, the rope on Tepikkhu's body was also untied.
Domino was about to say something when Angor pushed Tepikkhu to him.
"He's fine now."
