Angor reached out his hand and touched the pendant on his chest.
The Alien Eye.
He wore the Alien Eye every day, even when he was taking a bath. Sometimes, he even forgot that it was there because he was so familiar with it, as if it was a part of his body.
He didn't pay too much attention to it. He only treated it as a souvenir from Jon.
Even though the Alien Eye looked like an ordinary accessory right now, Sunders still couldn't tell what was special about it even though he was already a truth-finder.
Still, Angor didn't forget how special the Alien Eye was.
Earth and the wizarding world were two completely different universes. Angor even suspected that the wizarding world and Earth were not in the same universe. The Alien Eye brought Jon from Earth to the wizarding world, which was why it was so special.
Last time, when he was sleeping on the cloud whale, the Alien Eye also acted strangely. Angor didn't see it, but Nausica noticed it, and Toby also confirmed that it was the Alien Eye. As for why it acted strangely, Angor didn't know yet. Still, he could tell that the Alien Eye was something extraordinary.
Another piece of evidence was that he couldn't put the Alien Eye inside his bracelet. When Angor tried to put the Alien Eye into his bracelet, he had a feeling that the space inside the bracelet would crumble if the item was placed inside.
All three points proved that the Alien Eye was special.
Now, Saladin's words told him something else about the Alien Eye.
Angor read a lot about otherworldly materials in Material Synthesis and Alchemy Materials Illustrated.
According to them, any object tainted with otherworldly energy would be destroyed by the consciousness of the world as time passed. If it was a type of magical plant, it was very likely that it would be assimilated in the Sorcerer World and become localized.
Living creatures like magic plants could change their aura, while non-living creatures were like rootless duckweeds that went with the flow of the world. When an otherworldly item came to the wizarding world, its aura wouldn't stay on it for too long. However, Angor's Alien Eye didn't seem to have lost its otherworldly energy even though it had been in the wizarding world for decades.
If Saladin didn't tell him, he wouldn't have believed it.
That was why the Alien Eye was so special.
At the same time, he also reminded Angor that the Alien Eye could not be taken lightly. There were always talented people in the world who could discover the uniqueness of the Alien Eye, such as Saladin. However, there were many things with otherworldly auras. Saladin might not care this time, but what about the next time?
Besides, he was worried about the Supreme Cult behind Saladin's back.
If even Saladin, an apprentice, could find clues, then the sect behind him must have a way to sense otherworldly auras. If the Alien Eye was discovered once or twice, it could be attributed to negligence. But what if it was discovered three or four times?
According to the Apprentice Guard, the Supreme Cult had sent more than one person this time.
It seemed that he had to find a way to hide the aura of the Alien Eye as soon as possible.
…
Champagne Road was filled with all kinds of pubs and inns. Usually, this street was not very busy. However, due to the opening of the purification garden, tens of thousands of apprentices came from all over the city. Due to the lack of accommodation, Champagne Road had become the busiest street in the main city.
As he walked down the street, he saw many apprentices in different outfits.
He was wearing a black robe with a large hood. Walking in the middle of these oddly dressed acolytes, he was like a clear stream of water.
Besides, strange clothes were not really eye-catching in this place.
There were people shrouded in black mist, people who couldn't touch the ground, people who were shiny, and people who were glittering … It was as if they didn't have any special effects on them.
Angor would always stay away from such people.
In the end, he stopped in front of a bar with a colorful signboard.
It was 93 Champagne Road, Lumber Tavern. Through the open wooden window, one could vaguely see the lively scene inside. There were roars, singing, and laughter … Accompanied by the faint fragrance of alcohol, it showed its ostentatious status.
Angor pushed the door open and was welcomed by a warm air.
Even in the middle of winter, the place was still as warm as summer.
His entrance attracted the attention of some people, but most of them only gave him a quick glance before looking away. The only exception was a bartender in a black and white uniform.
The well-groomed bartender walked to Angor and asked, "What can I do for you, honorable guest?"
The bartender was a mortal, but he was quite good-looking. Whenever he smiled, several female apprentices around him would tease him. Some of them even dared to invite the bartender to their rooms at night.
The bartender only smiled at them and replied with a few polite words. He then looked at Angor again.
Angor glanced at the smooth bartender and spoke in a low voice, "Take me to the Brocade Tavern."
When Angor mentioned the tavern, the people around him went silent. They all looked at Angor as if trying to see through him.
"Brocade Tavern? Don't tell me the Supreme Sect is here? "Someone muttered in a low voice.
Several minutes ago, Shan brought the big guy back to Lumber Tavern, and everyone in the tavern saw what happened to her. Angor's sudden mention of the Brocade Tavern caught everyone's attention.
The bartender was also surprised. He was a mortal, but he had been here for a long time and knew a thing or two about wizard organizations. "Do you have an invitation card for the Brocade Tavern, sir?"
"What invitation card?" Angor frowned.
"I'm sorry, sir. I can't take you there without an invitation card," the bartender explained.
Before Angor could reply, one of the female apprentices who was flirting with the bartender interrupted, "Hey, leave without an invitation card. I'm telling you, the owner of Lumber Tavern is a wizard, and he hates people like you Supreme Cult the most."
Angor glanced at her but did not explain. He walked past the bartender and headed to the bar counter.
He saw the target of his visit — Nausica.
Nausica was the one he asked Shadow about.
He remembered that Nausica participated in the Sky Tower competition. If she made it to the top, she should be at Floating Mech City by now. Due to various matters, Angor finally found the time to ask Shadow about Nausica.
Nausica walked to the counter and asked the bartender for a drink.
Before Angor could walk to her side, the female apprentice stopped him. "I told you, Lumber Tavern does not welcome Supreme Cult members. Please leave at once."
She did not lower her voice, which attracted everyone's attention. Nausica turned around as well.
"Get out of my way," Angor said in a low voice.
The female apprentice seemed determined to find trouble with Angor. She wanted to use the power of the owner of the tavern to break the Supreme Cult's spirit. At the same time, she could use this chance to show off a bit in front of other people, which was a great opportunity for someone who craved attention.
However, it was obvious that she had miscalculated.
Angor's aura suddenly dimmed. He pointed at the female apprentice and sent a stream of nightmare aura into her forehead.
The female apprentice froze on the spot, her face filled with deep fear.
Angor did not even look at her. He walked around her and approached Nausica.
"Supreme Cult?" Nausica narrowed her eyes and asked in a sexy and hoarse voice.
Angor did not answer right away. Instead, he peered through the shadow of his hood and observed his friend whom he had not seen for half a year. Thanks to her Bloodline Mastery, Nausica's body had become more and more curvaceous in the past half a year. She was now wearing a bright red cloak over her soft armor to cover her missing right arm.
Nausica felt a little strange when she saw the black-robed man remaining silent. She looked at him carefully and felt a sense of familiarity.
"Long time no see, Nausica."
A voice as clear as the moon suddenly struck Nausica's heart.
Her heart raced.
"You're —" Angor?
Before Nausica could finish, a punch came from behind.
"Damn it, what did you do to Xue Na?" The fist wind was accompanied by a shout.
Angor did not move. He simply sent his nightmare aura into the attacker's head. In an instant, the attacker collapsed on the ground.
"You!" Two people lost their ability to fight in a row. One of them looked terrified, while the other fainted on the ground. The other people in the bar began to protest.
Angor looked at the crowd while releasing his nightmare aura. The female apprentice from before had inexplicably found fault with him, and had even directly given him an identity. Seeing that she had not been injured, he had only given her a light punishment. However, the person who had ambushed him later had a gust of wind from his fist. If he had been an ordinary apprentice, he would have been severely injured by this punch. The severity of his punishment was based on the strength of his ambush.
He was not afraid of the crowd's anger. In fact, he even felt a little excited when he saw the crowd's reaction.
If he injured these people so badly that they could not participate in the purification garden, he would be saving their lives, right?
With this thought in mind, Angor's aura grew thicker.
"You misunderstood. He's my friend. He's not a member of the Supreme Cult." Nausica stepped forward and stood in front of Angor.
As a member of Brute Cavern, Nausica was quite respected among apprentices from smaller organizations. Everyone sat down after hearing her words. Only the female apprentice, Suna, and the ambusher's friend were still glaring at Angor.
Nausica pointed at the trembling Suna and the unconscious man. "They —"
"They'll be fine soon. Don't worry about them." Angor's words were meant for both Nausica and the others.
"Can I have a word with you?" Angor lowered his voice.
Nausica glanced at Suna and whispered, "If he says he's fine, then he's fine. I'll come check on him later. "
Nausica nodded to the others and led Angor to the backyard.
