"I'll go." Sunders did not answer the question. Instead, he said he would go himself.
Flora grunted. "Maybe he's already dead."
Leona, who was standing next to Sunders, moved closer. "Is Angor dead?"
"He's missing." Sunders looked at Leona.
Flora chimed in, "Yes, he's missing. He fell into an unknown plane passageway. Oh, right. He doesn't have any coordinates yet. "
Leona clicked her tongue. "If I remember correctly, he joined Brute Cavern last year, didn't he? He should be a level-1 apprentice now. "
If a level-1 apprentice fell into an unknown plane passageway without any dimensional coordinates, they would be dead for sure.
Leona smiled at Sunders. "Now I think it's a good choice to accept your request and waste hundreds of hours teaching your apprentice."
Since Angor was already dead, it was a good choice.
Sunders didn't respond to Leona's words. "It's fine if you accept. At least I don't have to do it myself."
"Teaching a dead man alchemy? I can spend thousands of hours teaching him," Leona didn't care at all.
"I'll keep that in mind." Sunders paused. "Also, he's missing."
Leona didn't argue with Sunders. Instead, it was Flora who asked, "Are you sure Angor is still alive, professor?"
"If he's dead, he doesn't deserve to be my apprentice."
Perhaps Flora was the only one who could understand Sunders' sudden train of thought.
"I see." Flora nodded.
"You don't want to see him alive, do you?"
Flora shook her head. "No. I want Angor to come back as soon as possible. I heard he's quite good at alchemy. Our school needs an alchemist. I also want to ask him to make something for me … "
Sunders looked at her in silence. After a long moment, he curled his lips and ended the topic without saying anything.
Leona moved closer to Flora and wanted to say something. But before he could say anything, a ripple suddenly appeared on the mirror in the sky. Accompanied by a sharp laughter that resonated with the nasal cavity, a sexy woman wearing a crystal blue dress slowly appeared in front of everyone.
Leona shut her mouth. Even if she didn't shut up, she wouldn't be able to speak. Because Rein Mute's aura was fully activated, the aura of silence spread throughout the entire square. Apart from a few adepts, everyone else present was stunned by this aura. Not only could he not move, he could not even open his mouth to speak.
"Samantha …" There was a hint of suppressed excitement on Rhine's face. "After not seeing you for a hundred years, I didn't expect you to have already taken this step."
Samantha swayed her body, her black hair cascading down her twin peaks. Her crystal blue cracked lips paired with her crystal blue dress made her appear both cold and seductive.
Samantha glanced at Rhine and snorted. "Mister Phantom is my role model. Since he has taken this step, I can't fall behind."
"However, compared to my changes, I've changed a lot. My dear father, you've changed even more. You look much older than when you left me behind. " Samantha's cold eyes and sarcastic tone were like cold knives stabbing into Rhine's chest.
"You should be able to maintain your appearance with your current strength, right?" Samantha walked around Rhine and stopped in front of Sunders. She poked Sunders' chest with her crystal blue fingernail. "Don't tell me you're going to learn from that bastard Sunders and let time erode your face? Or is it because you abandoned me last time, and — "
Before Samantha could finish, Sunders pushed Samantha away and spoke with an expressionless face, "I'm not interested in broken glass."
Samantha staggered and looked back at Sunders with a malicious look.
Sunders' push completely ruined the atmosphere she created. She had originally wanted to snatch the right to speak and take the initiative in front of her former father, but she had missed out on a troublemaker.
"Is this how you treat an old friend you haven't seen in a long time?" Samantha flicked her long black hair with a gloomy expression.
"Disgusting as always." Sunders put down his hat and looked at Rhine Mute. "Mister Rhine, let's get down to business. I have other business to attend to."
Rein Mute sighed. He knew Sunders' temperament well. Showing up was already the biggest concession he could make. He gave Samantha an apologetic look. "Let's get started then."
Faced with her "former" father's apologetic look, Samantha remained expressionless and coldly said, "You're just putting on an act."
Samantha turned to Sunders. "My professor has been waiting for your Gravity Garden for a long time. If you keep delaying, he'll be very angry. You have to leave with me this time no matter what! "
Sunders glanced at her. "Mister Monkey has already prepared everything. There's no need to rush. Besides, I'm only going to sell some otherworldly creatures. I can't do much. "
Samantha remained silent. "Then tell me, where are you going, and when are you going to the Abyss Plane? If I can't find you, I won't be able to answer to my professor. "
"Floating Mech City. As for when … I can't say."
Samantha wanted to say something else, but Rhine interrupted her. "The Myriad Spirit Garden is open. Samantha, come in."
At the center of the Tree Spirit Garden square, a crack appeared. Inside the crack, there seemed to be the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
Samantha glared at Sunders and stepped into the "Myriad Spirit Garden" — a place she hadn't visited for hundreds of years.
As Samantha entered, Rhine followed her. Before entering, Rhine turned to the others. "Sunders, come with me. The rest of you, guard the garden."
Sunders nodded and followed Rhine into the crack.
Leona stretched her body and rested her head on Flora's shoulder like a boneless snake. "Did you see that? Your professor is like a stubborn rock. Samantha tried to get close to him, but he didn't respond at all. I remember a hundred years ago, when Samantha was still in Brute Cavern, they were quite close. I thought they would end up together, but they didn't." Leona sighed. "Well, look at that.
"But it's different. Samantha followed Mister Monkey and became a level-2 wizard. She's also a truth-finder now. She has a bright future ahead of her."
Flora heard Leona's words and giggled. "You're wrong. It's not that he's dumb. He sees it better than anyone else."
"He's just looking for different things. Even if he wants to find a partner, he'll find someone who can keep up with him on the path of truth. Samantha … she's not good enough. "
While they were chatting, a young man in a white robe was standing on a leaf of the Tree of Eternity above Tree Spirit Garden. He looked at the crack in the center of the square with uncontrollable excitement in his eyes.
"Finally, it begins." His voice had a strange upturn at the end, as if he wanted to say something, but stopped. It was as if there were countless unfinished words that were swallowed into his stomach.
The young man closed his eyes and thought of a series of people.
When he opened his eyes again, tears of blood flowed down his cheeks. He held a long object in his hand that emitted a faint scent of blood and slowly walked back to the Tree Spirit Palace.
…
Back at Fairy World.
In the B5 ice cave of Dark Castle in the Otherworld.
Angor spent a whole day writing down all his plans, calculations, and designs.
In the end, he decided to make an earring shaped like a feather.
He only planned to inscribe toughening runes on the earring. He would use a microscopic illusion spell to insert the illusion nodes inside the earring. The activation source would be the user's mana.
It shouldn't be too difficult to make, and the final product would barely qualify as a tiered item.
However, when Angor tried to make the earring, he realized that it wasn't as easy as he thought. It was even more difficult than when he refined Gondola!
If it was just an illusion, he would have already refined it. Even refining more wouldn't be a problem. However, Greya added "touch and perception" to the list, which meant he had to incorporate nightmare illusions into his alchemy.
When he refined "Journey in the Sky," it was actually more of an illusion. Although he could manipulate the emotions in the illusion and add memories to it to make the illusion more contagious, it was still not enough. But in reality, the clouds weren't clouds, and the floating land in the sky wasn't real either.
What he needed to do now was to go one step further than making "Journey in the Sky". Not only did he need to make the illusions more contagious, but he also needed to add touch.
Angor tried many times, but he couldn't really incorporate nightmare illusions into his alchemy.
Maybe it was because the illusions couldn't be used in alchemy? Angor thought for a long time but still couldn't find an answer. The Mystery of Nightmare Domain didn't mention anything about it either. After all, neither Sunders nor Flora had any alchemy talent.
Angor felt like his head was tied up in knots. It wasn't hard to create an illusion that contained nightmare aura. He could even maintain the illusion for a long time by providing mana, like the one he set up for Flowey.
However, it would be impossible to solidify it into an item and activate it at any time.
He had tried to use nightmare energy to linger on the feather earrings he had refined.
The first time he activated the illusion, he could feel the touch. As long as he kept providing mana, the illusion could last for a long time. It could even last for years.
But once he turned off the illusion and tried to activate it again, the nightmare illusions would disappear completely, and Toby would only be able to see but not touch.
No matter how he increased the amount of nightmare illusions or modified the illusion nodes, he still couldn't find a perfect solution.
Days went by without any progress. In the end, he had to give up on using nightmare illusions.
