After returning to Sunders' mansion, Angor began his work.
Back in Brute Cavern, he already recorded Nausica's data and came up with a rough blueprint. Now, he was just integrating his previous ideas and adding some functions that were more general and had a certain degree of combat effectiveness.
It took him about half a day to come up with all the possible combinations. However, he still didn't know how to assemble the device or what it would look like. As he told Nausica, he was going to talk to Mithra tomorrow in hopes of getting some advice from him. This was the holy land of machine alchemy. Mithra might be a Master Apothecary, but he must have learned a lot about machines. His knowledge was more than enough to guide Angor.
It was nighttime. The moon was bright, and the stars were sparse. Clouds covered the sky above Floating Mech City.
Angor took out Toby from his chest pocket. It had been half a month since he left Dark Castle. Toby was still asleep, but he seemed to be in a much better condition than before. Also, Angor could sense a great power roiling inside Toby's body. Maybe this was what Greya meant when she said that Toby was trying to fuse with "Wrath".
Angor took out a Soul Orb and placed it on his palm. Toby was still asleep, but he still opened his mouth when he smelled the orb.
He stroked Toby's soft feathers and checked the bird's condition again. All signs indicated that Toby was in good health.
He put Toby back into his pocket and wondered if he could come out of the purification garden in one piece. It had been a while since he paid any attention to the Krakoks.
In order to fulfill the Grand Priest's request, Angor decided to move the Krakoks out of his bracelet first.
With a thought, he summoned Toby.
Dodoro and the other Krakoks quickly showed up in the room.
Apart from Dodoro who opened his eyes and looked at Angor, the other Krakoks didn't notice that they were in a different place. It wasn't that the Krakoks didn't notice. It was just that Angor had set up a mist around the building.
"An —" Dodoro looked at Angor with a pair of bright eyes and was about to call his name when he saw Angor.
Dodoro blinked a few times and realized what was going on, but he didn't say anything else.
Angor was satisfied with Dodoro's performance. It seemed that Dodoro was becoming more and more like a normal person after being taught by Trusan and Papaya's grandmother.
Dodoro calmed down, but his eyes never left Angor.
He summoned Papaya from the building and asked her to come out.
Papaya looked around curiously. "Is this the place you chose for us, sir?"
"What? You still want to stay in the attic? "Angor chuckled.
In the beginning, the Krakoks liked to live in the attics of human houses. That was why they were called "Fairies of the Attics".
"We don't mind living anywhere. If humans treat us the same way as you, sir, we'll even live in your attic." Papaya took the opportunity to flatter Angor.
"How are you guys doing? Are you getting used to it? "
"Everyone has been studying the structure of the building. They really like it, sir. It's a place where neighbors can live in harmony with each other, and they're getting closer to each other." Papaya chuckled. "They also said that they want to build something like this when they arrive at their new home."
"So you've adapted well." Angor chuckled. "I called you here because I have something to tell you."
Angor took Papaya to Butler Number One and asked the butler to take care of the Krakoks' daily necessities, including food and water.
After Butler Number One took down his instructions, Angor went to Sunders' study.
This was Sunders' residence, after all. He needed Sunders' permission to let all of them live here.
"Sure." Sunders nodded.
He already knew about the Krakoks from Angor's experience, so he could still tolerate the presence of a mortal tribe that didn't occupy much land.
With that settled, Angor began to talk about the Krakoks' bloodline problem.
Sunders glanced at Papaya and carefully sensed the bloodline restriction in her body. "It can be solved."
Angor's eyes lit up. Before he could ask further, Sunders cut him off. "But you won't be able to solve it for now. You'll have to figure it out yourself when you become a wizard. You have a friend who's a Bloodline Wizard, right? She might be able to give you some advice. "
Of course, Sunders could solve the Krakoks' bloodline problem. But why would he do that? Besides, Angor had to accept the request because of a favor, so Sunders had to do it himself.
Since Sunders said that a Bloodline Wizard could do something about it, Angor decided to ask Nausica for help.
With the Krakoks' problem solved, Angor began to think about how to ask Sunders about his own problem.
Seeing Angor's "come and ask me" expression, Sunders couldn't bear to see Angor's poor performance any longer. "What else do you want?" Sunders asked.
Angor's eyes lit up. "Professor, I heard the purification garden gives out invitation cards to wizards, right?"
Sunders nodded. "Yes."
"Can I have one then?" Angor asked with a joyful look.
"You want to change your title?" Sunders gave Angor a long stare that made Angor uneasy. "You want to change your title?"
Angor mumbled for a while but didn't say anything.
He took out an anonymous invitation card from his space storage and tossed it to Angor. "Take it. You don't need to change your title. You already covered your face when you joined the Sky Tower."
Angor nodded. Even without a title, it sounded better than "Baron Milk".
After taking the card from Sunders' hand, he turned around and prepared to return to his room. "What are you working on?" asked Sunders. "What are you doing?"
"Fire Array, Phantasmal Death."
"Phantasmal Death …" Sunders nodded. "Phantasmal Death is a branch of illusions that requires knowledge of magic arrays and alchemy. I think it's suitable for you. You can keep working on it. But I need to remind you that since you can already use the sequence of gravity, you should learn more about it. It'll help you a lot in the garden. "
Angor nodded. Since his soul could only leave his body for a limited time, he rarely had the chance to train the sequence of gravity. However, he knew that the sequence of gravity would help him a lot in the garden. After all, he could use the sequence of gravity to fly, which would greatly increase his chances of survival.
As for nourishing his body … Angor planned to go to Mithra's place and see if there were any potions that could improve his body's vitality.
Before Angor left, Sunders tossed him a Talent Orb.
Sunders pointed at Papaya, who was trembling in fear. "She should have talent. Since you brought a group of people back, you can test them. If you can gather five talents, you can accept a guide quest. The reward is better than nothing, but you can let them join Brute Cavern.
"Actually, sometimes, you don't have to solve the problem yourself. Isn't it also a choice to let them solve it themselves?"
Angor left the study with the orb in his hand.
Angor understood what Sunders meant. The Krakoks could solve their bloodline problems by themselves as long as they could continue their journey as wizards.
However … gathering five talents seemed to be a little difficult.
…
When Angor returned to his room, he saw Number One waiting for him outside.
"Mister Padt, the master asked me to vacate the room next door for your guest," Number One said.
Sunders' order? Angor was planning to let the Krakoks stay in his room, but Sunders had already arranged a new room for them. Angor was grateful that Sunders had considered his need for a quiet place to conduct his research.
Angor didn't start the test right away after moving Dodoro and the Krakoks to the room next door.
He still needed to know about their talent. He wanted to wait until the Krakoks had settled down. After all, there was a deeper meaning behind letting the Krakoks become wizards.
As for Dodoro, Angor planned to test his talent.
Back on Gondola, Naga mentioned that Dodoro's spiritual power level was higher than both his and Shadow's. This meant that Dodoro was definitely a talent. The Talent Orb might not always be accurate, but Angor could still use Abelles' Annual Talent Collection to figure out some possibilities.
With that in mind, Angor brought Dodoro to the table and asked him to sit down.
Dodoro gave Angor a friendly smile and sat down in front of him.
Angor placed the orb in the center of the table, lit an oil lamp, and poured a glass of water. They represented fire and water, which were the most likely things to change during a talent test.
"Put your hand on the Talent Orb and observe the surroundings carefully. See if there's anything strange. See if there's something extra or missing. See if the fire is burning more fiercely or if it's extinguished. See if there's a ripple on the surface of the water …" He said to Dodoro.
"Remember, keep your eyes open."
"I'll be careful." Dodoro nodded at Angor. "I'll be careful."
"Then let's begin."
