Apart from the black matchstick man and the young Ingji man, there was another creature who was observing Angor.
It was an unknown species that Angor had never seen before.
It looked like a "humanoid" made of blue water. Angor could say that it was a water-type lifeform. But it was still a human shell.
However, it was clear that the creature was not a human yet. It only had a rough outline without any clothes or sexual features.
From afar, it looked like a blue water man.
The water humanoid was staring at Angor with its blue eyes.
Angor couldn't read the creature's mind from its emotionless eyes, but he could make some guesses through the mind monster around it.
The monster did not look like a "living being". Instead, it looked like a dozen colorful ribbons.
When the ribbons floated in the air, they looked just like silk.
However, when the ribbons weaved together into a sphere, a single giant eye would appear in the middle of the sphere. The eye looked just like a human's except it was enlarged. The eye socket was also made of ribbons of different colors.
It looked like an evil god.
Still, Angor didn't feel bad about the strange eyeball.
At least, it looked better than the "calculating fly" he saw in the Almanac.
If one had to describe it, the streamer's eyes were filled with curiosity. This kind of "curiosity" was different from the "curiosity" of 004 and the employees of the Spectacle Clan.
It was more like a "baby" looking at the world with curiosity.
Clear, without any practical meaning, blank and ignorant.
Angor looked at the eyeball and the blue eyes of the humanoid creature. For some reason, the more he looked at them, the more similar they looked.
When he looked at the humanoid creature before, its eyes were clear, but he couldn't understand it.
Now, when he looked at the watery humanoid's eyes again, he noticed that the latter's eyes were now filled with ignorance, confusion, and fear.
"Is that a Hollow?" Angor pointed at the humanoid creature and asked 004 in a low voice.
For some reason, Angor thought of the Astral Attendant.
However, the Astral Attendant's eyes were even more ignorant than the humanoid creature's. It was dead and numb. This was the most severe and typical case of a Hollow Person whose memories had been erased.
004 glanced at the water humanoid and nodded, "Yes, it's a Hollow Man. One of my employees bought it from Scholar Jing Hai not long ago. "
"I don't think all of its memories are gone."
004 nodded. "I still have some basic common sense. I have a subconscious reaction to human words, but my ability to understand them is greatly reduced. According to the human version of Scholar Jing Hai's mental test, its mental age should be less than five years old. "
In other words, it was indeed a "little friend".
Because of this, its eyes were clear and pure, which was normal. — — The gaze here referred to the gaze of the streamer's eyes.
After all, the streamer's eyes were its mind monster, reflecting its inner thoughts.
"What do you mean? It's responding to human words instinctively."
004: "It's just that it can't write, but when it sees words, it can understand what the words mean. Because it can read, it was arranged to stay in this library a long time ago to learn some general knowledge through books. "
"…" Common sense? Can you really learn it just by reading books?
004: "Speaking of which, I think it's a Water Messenger from the Abyss Plane. But as far as I know, no humans ever set foot in the Abyss Plane. It's a very remote place, so humans won't go there.
But why does it react to human words? That's strange. "
004 shook its head and did not want to think about it. It was difficult to find an answer to these questions. After all, most of the Water Messenger's memories were gone.
Angor, on the other hand, was a little surprised to hear what 004 said.
He did hear about the Abyss Plane before.
But he read about it in a travel book.
There was once a trend in the wizarding world, which was still ongoing even now. Even Angor himself was affected by it.
The trend was to write travel books.
The leader of this trend was an Occult space manipulator named Fein Werder.
Fein Werder traveled to many places, saw many mysterious sceneries, and visited all kinds of wonderful worlds. One of his hobbies was to write his travel notes and pass them down.
Angor was one of Fein Werder's readers.
Fein Werder's Strange World had mentioned the Sea Abyss Plane.
According to Fein Werder's book, he witnessed the birth of a new civilization in the Abyss Plane, as well as the birth of a "Mystery item".
In order to replicate the birth of this "Mystery item", Fein Werder even caused a great bloodbath in the Abyss Plane, which forced the new civilization back to its original state.
Of course, no new Mystery item was born after the bloodbath.
Fein Werder did not achieve his goal.
However, Fein Werder recorded this event in Strange Worlds, which inspired many alchemists to pursue the Mystery item.
Even the alchemists in the R&D Department studied it carefully.
Unfortunately, the Mystery item was not created by humans. It was "naturally" produced. They believed that it had something to do with a great consciousness. There was no way to replicate it.
However, since Strange Worlds was the first book that detailed the birth of Mystery items, it was still considered a must-read in the R&D Department.
Of course, Angor had read the book before, and he was curious about what Fein Werder said about the birth of this Mystery item.
He even wanted to visit the Abyss Plane.
However, Fein Werder did not record the exact location of the Abyss Plane. Back then, Angor was only an apprentice, so he had no way to go there.
Who would have thought that he would run into a lifeform from the Abyss Plane here?
But Fein Werder also mentioned in Strange Worlds that the Abyss Plane did not have a complete civilization. The only new civilization was created by a group of silver fish. In order to replicate the birth of the Mystery item, Fein Werder destroyed the silver fish civilization in the end.
In other words, the Abyss Plane did not have a civilization.
So where did this "Water Messenger" come from?
It was better to ask the Water Messenger directly. Unfortunately, the Water Messenger had lost its memory. Angor had no choice but to ask 004. Since the man mentioned the "Water Messenger", he should know something about the Abyss Plane.
004: "Sea Abyss World? There's no civilization there. Wait, I remember a Water Messenger said that there was a primitive civilization there. They said it was a new civilization created by the previous civilization. "
"Primitive civilization? What civilization? "
004 shook his head. "I don't know. I only heard that it was created by a group of silver fish. The Water Messengers are not interested in such civilizations. "
Angor suddenly realized something.
Back then, Fein Werder destroyed the new civilization of the silver fish. However, he did not kill them all. The silver fish broke out of their cocoons and created a new civilization. Even if it was still a primitive one, Angor still felt a little emotional.
The resilience of a race and a civilization was greater than he had imagined.
History was like a loop. Resilient civilizations would always be reborn in the flames again and again.
004 continued, "As for the Water Messengers, they are not native creatures of the Abyss Plane. They used to live in a world of pure water. However, that world eventually merged with Chenchi World as a subsidiary world. "
Speaking of this, 004 sighed softly, "If this plane fusion is with another world, although it will affect the low-grade water emissaries, it won't be too big. However, it happened to be Chenchi World. "
Chenchi World … Angor knew about it. It was a civilization created by fire. Not only were the people there strong, but there were also "gods" in this world. These "gods" were very aggressive.
Because of this, even the sorcerer's expeditionary force did not head towards Chenchi World.
After all, the southern wizardry region did not even have a single legendary fighter. How were they supposed to deal with those "evil gods"?
004 continued, "The plane fusion caused all the water sources to evaporate. In order to survive, the Water Messengers were forced to leave their homes. Most of the Water Messengers died on the way to find a new water source. Only a small number of Water Messengers eventually wandered to the Abyss Realm. "
"Through generations of reproduction, they were accepted by the world's consciousness and became new immigrants to the Abyss Plane."
However, the number of Water Messengers was still too small. They could not even establish the foundation of a civilization.
Therefore, the Abyss Plane was still uncivilized. Of course, if the primitive silver fish civilization was included, the Abyss Plane could be considered half a civilization.
"I see." Angor's eyes widened. So they were immigrants. No wonder Fein Werder did not mention them. They must have migrated to the Abyss Plane later.
"You're interested in the Water Messengers?" 004 looked at Angor curiously. The black furball on his shoulder was also blinking its big eyes, which seemed to be trying to figure out what was going on.
"I'm not really interested. I'm just curious about the new world and new species I've never heard of before."
"I see." 004 paused. "If you're interested in the Water Messengers and the Abyss Plane in the future, you can also contact us."
Angor raised an eyebrow at 004's words.
If he was interested in the Water Messengers, he might be able to borrow the Hollow Man for research.
But if he was interested in the Abyss Plane, what should 004 do? Should he send the Abyss Plane's coordinates to Angor?
004: "I don't know where the Ocean Abyss Realm is, but we are friends with a Water Envoy. Not this Hollow Man, but a real Water Messenger from the Abyss Plane. "
He was a powerful Water Envoy who had once entered the White Sun Mirror Domain by chance. After that, the Water Messenger used a special method to leave a "waymark" on the Sun Mirror Domain.
Since then, the Water Messenger had the right to enter the Sun Mirror Domain. It could only enter once a year, and each entry cost a lot of resources. But at least it now had a stable passage.
The Water Envoy had first entered the White Sun Mirror Domain near Mirror Mountain.
Because of this, the Water Messenger became a close friend of the Mirror Clan.
The reason why 004 knew about the Ocean Abyss Plane was because of this Water Envoy.
Also, the shop assistant didn't plan to enslave the Water Messenger when he bought it from Scholar Mirrorsea. Instead, he planned to give the Water Messenger to the next Water Messenger. The Water Messenger was a witness to the friendship between the Mirror Clan and the Water Messenger.
Because of this, 004 told Angor that he could contact him if he wanted to know more about the Abyss Plane.
"I see …" Angor was complaining in his mind, but it turned out he was the one who made a fool of himself.
Back then, Angor would have been interested in the Abyss Plane's coordinates. But now, he wasn't so interested.
After all, with his current knowledge, he had already guessed why the silver fish could give birth to the Mysterious Object.
He guessed that one of the silver fish had some kind of "mysterious sprout" in its body. After a series of coincidences, the mysterious sprout broke out and gave birth to the mysterious item recorded in "Strange World" by Fein Werder.
However, Fein Werder had taken the item away, and the silver fish with the "Mystery Sprout" died the moment the item was born. There was no need for him to go to the Abyss Plane now.
With that in mind, Angor decided not to ask for the coordinates of the Abyss World.
Instead, he whispered, "This Water Messenger knows the human language. Does this mean that there are already adepts residing in the Abyssal Plane?"
It would be difficult for a wizard to learn the language.
Shaking his head, 004 said, "I don't know. I'll ask the next time the Water Envoy comes to the White Sun Mirror Region from the Abyss Realm."
Angor nodded. He probably couldn't wait for the Water Messenger to enter the Sun Mirror Domain. Still, he could use Xi Luo as an information relay station. Asking her would make no difference.
Back to the topic at hand, Angor began to observe the other soul monsters.
These soul monsters all looked strange in their own ways. Also, they didn't seem to be limited in size. Some of them even went through the building and reached dozens of meters tall.
However, it didn't matter what they looked like. What really mattered was the meaning in their eyes.
Most of the monsters looked at Angor with cold and curious expressions.
There were also some who wanted to take advantage of Angor's body, just like the minotaur.
There were also some who wanted to harm Angor, but not many of them.
After seeing so many Spirit Monsters, Angor began to have some ideas about the "Eye of Vigilance" and "Spirit Monsters".
