There was no problem with the refinement, but the only thing he was worried about was the omen.
He was now in the same boat as Shadow, and Shadow was from Floating Mech City. Everyone knew that Floating Mech City was the holy land of alchemists in the south, so Angor's alchemy knowledge should not cause too much trouble.
However, if he was going to make a big fuss here, the omen would definitely be noticed by someone with a "God's View". Would that lord really be indifferent to his actions?
For now, he could only trust Shadow's words and hope that the "master" would not do anything to stop them.
With that in mind, he calmed himself down. He began to melt the materials.
While Angor worked, Shadow sat in front of the fire and stared into the depths of the ice cave.
For some reason, he felt a sense of unease in his heart. The long tunnel was pitch-black, and the cold air kept gushing out. Even just looking at it made his heart beat faster.
Shadow's instincts told him that something was wrong. He turned to Venees. Venees was sleeping in front of the fire with her head resting on her knees.
Should I leave this place and let Angor do his alchemy somewhere else?
As Shadow pondered, a gust of cold air mixed with frost and snow suddenly came out of the tunnel.
Shadow quickly erected a wall in front of him to protect himself from the chilling wind.
The sudden gust of wind lasted for a while. When it finally stopped, the cleared area was covered by another layer of frost.
Shadow removed the earthen wall and observed the surroundings. Although there didn't seem to be anything strange at the moment, for some reason, his heart was beating very fast. The feeling of uneasiness was even stronger than before, and it kept surging up.
"Angor, have you started?" Shadow sent a voice transmission to Angor.
"Yes?" Shadow waited for a while before he heard Angor's reply.
Shadow made a sound of acknowledgment and said with a little unease, "I feel that something is wrong. Let's leave this place for now. If we want to refine it, we can go to other places to do it."
Angor looked at the half-melted material in his hand and nodded. Shadow's observation skills were very strong. His grasp of details and sensitivity to danger shouldn't be bad either. Since he said that something was wrong, then it was fine to change to another place to refine it. It just so happened that he also wanted to discuss the 'Omen' with Shadow.
"Alright. Bring Venees here. We'll go back," Angor sent a voice transmission.
Shadow called out to Venees, but she didn't respond. "Is she still asleep?" Shadow frowned.
He walked to Venees and put a hand on her shoulder. Venees collapsed as soon as his hand touched her.
A look of bewilderment flashed across An Ying's eyes as he parted the hair covering her face. When he looked closer, he saw that Venees' face was covered in white frost. Her eyes were bleeding, and her face was pale from the cold.
Shadow gulped and used his Psyche Feeler to sense Venees' life force.
But when his psyche tentacles touched Venees' skin, a chilling energy rushed into his body through the tentacles. He quickly cut off the tentacles.
He quickly cut off the feeler and jumped away from Venees..
"What's wrong? Are you coming? "Angor's voice.
"Venees is in trouble," Shadow said with a grim expression.
An Ying said as he slowly retreated. When he reached the edge of the field, he turned around and ran back. He sensed a great threat from Venees' cold energy, and he didn't want to stay here any longer.
When he ran back, he saw Angor coming toward him.
"Don't go there. Let's get out of here."
Seeing Shadow's anxious look, Angor knew that this was not the time to ask questions. He quickly turned around and ran outside.
They soon reached a fork in the road.
"Which way should we go?" One way was to return to basement six, and the other way was to basement four. But now that there was no one leading the team, it was not easy to go to the fourth level. "Let's go down first. There's a woman in B9."
Angor nodded. He didn't think it was a good idea to go to B4 either.
After they left the ice cave and closed the passage, Shadow let out a long sigh of relief and began to talk about what happened earlier.
Angor didn't know where the "danger" came from. But since Venees was in trouble, something strange must have happened.
"I think Venees is done for. We need a guide to get out of here. Let's go back to B9 and take the black-haired woman with us. Otherwise, we won't be able to leave. " Shadow was still worried about what happened. He just wanted to get as far away from B5 as possible.
"You don't have to. Fiona's in my bracelet. Do you have a way to get her to talk?" Angor asked.
"Fiona's in your space storage?" Shadow looked at Angor's bracelet in surprise. "Don't tell me you have a Hollow Weed? A spatial bracelet that could hold a person would require a large amount of Void Floating Algae. At least a hundred thousand crystals! "
Angor didn't say anything. He dragged Shadow into his Nightmare Domain so that he couldn't use Omniscient View.
When he entered the Nightmare Domain, he took out Fiona. Fiona was still wearing a strange smile on her face, just like any other puppet.
When Shadow sensed the puppet strings inside Fiona's body, he confirmed Fiona's identity. He didn't care about Fiona right away. Instead, he looked at Angor in confusion.
"I'm getting more and more curious. Who are you, anyway? Not only do you have a space storage, but you also have a lot of Hollow Weed. Where did you get them? That's a lot of Hollow Weed. Floating Mech City's auction will be the final item. " Shadow didn't care if he knew Angor's identity or not. But as time went by, he began to feel that Angor was a complete mystery.
He knew alchemy, figured out Hippocrotee's magic array in such a short time, wore expensive clothes, had a strange but powerful demon bird with him, and was able to face Madam Butterfly head-on with his illusions. Everything told Shadow that there was more to this young man than met the eye.
Angor still didn't answer the question. He pushed Fiona away and said, "My business isn't important. If you can leave this place and go to Floating Mech City, you'll know. If you can't leave this place, telling you won't change anything. "
Angor knew that many people in the wizarding world were afraid of Sunders. Maybe if he told them who he was, they would give Sunders some face and stop bothering him. But he also knew that there were more people who hated Sunders. When Flora was hunted down before she became a wizard, some of them also hated Sunders because of Sunders.
This was why Angor didn't want to expose his background. If he didn't get treated well and got himself into trouble instead, it wouldn't be nice.
Shadow gave Angor a thoughtful look while trying to figure out Angor's identity. Several people came to mind. Some were alchemists, and some were illusionists. But he couldn't think of anyone who was both in Brute Cavern.
"Alright, I won't ask about it anymore. If you're willing to tell me, we'll talk later."
"Now that I think about it, I suggest that you keep Fiona. I don't know what will happen if Sunders sees her, but I don't want to take the risk. Let's check B9 first. If the black-haired woman is gone, we'll use Fiona again. "
Angor agreed with Shadow's suggestion. He put Fiona away and kept going down.
What they didn't know was that Venees, who Shadow thought was going to die, suddenly opened her eyes not long after they left the ice cave.
As she opened her eyes, her originally brown pupils turned grayish-white, as if they were covered with a layer of frost, shining with a faint clear light.
She sat up from the frost, and her brown hair turned white. Then, she raised her head and looked in the direction where Shadow had left. A trace of doubt flashed through her pale eyes.
"What a strange soul …"
…
Angor and Shadow didn't run into anything else on their way back. It took them about an hour to reach B9.
On their way back, Angor asked Shadow about the "omen".
Shadow stared at Angor for a long time with an unreadable expression.
He didn't ask if Angor was telling the truth. "It's not a bad thing. She knows you can craft mid-tier alchemy items, and she'll know how valuable you are when she considers your age and achievements. In such a situation, she will definitely think about a lot of things. Your identity, your background, your mentor. Maybe in the end, she will just let us go. "
Don't worry. She won't come after you in person if there's an omen. "
They soon arrived at the bathing area of the blood prison.
The black-haired woman who used to bathe in the pool didn't leave like the other guards. Instead, she was meditating by the pool.
The black-haired woman was startled when she saw them. She looked at them in fear and confusion. Before she could take out her weapon, Shadow tied her up with puppet strings.
Like Venees, the woman was a level-1 apprentice. She couldn't do anything to Shadow, who was a top-level apprentice.
"How did you get in here, Diablo? Where's Venees? Did she take you out? "The woman looked at Shadow in surprise. She then looked at Angor." Who are you? "
Instead, he turned to Shadow and said, "You tell her the details. I'm going to find a place to do more alchemy."
Shadow nodded. "I'll take care of her. Go. There shouldn't be any danger here. "
