Angor dodged again, but this time, he chose to put his back against the wall. When the harpoon came at him, he quickly moved away and stuck it into the wall.
Seeing this, Angor thought his plan was foolproof.
However, the wall, which was at least ten meters tall, was smashed into pieces by the harpoon. The harpoon changed its target to Angor again.
"So annoying." Angor leaned to the side to dodge another attack. Then he ignored the harpoon and ejected his soul.
The sequence of gravity instantly materialized, and a gravity cannon with endless waves of water rushed towards the harpoon.
Under the extreme water pressure, Angor's attack reached an unimaginable level. At first, the Gravity Cannon was only aimed at one target. But now, after some modifications, it became a direct hit.
When the harpoon came into contact with the Gravity Cannon, it immediately exploded into pieces and emitted a loud sound.
The sound waves in the deep sea were not as easily dispersed as in the air. Like a hurricane, with the explosion as the center, it began to spread crazy water ripples in all directions. Corals, stones, sand, and dust were all swept up and thrown in all directions.
Angor didn't expect his attack to be so powerful. The terrifying waves almost surrounded him.
He quickly used the sequence of gravity and dragged his body several hundred meters higher. When he was far enough away from the explosion, he sighed in relief.
He could no longer see the light of the fortress from where he was. Everything around him was pitch black.
However, even though he couldn't see anything, he could still feel the changes in the water flow in the deep sea below.
Angor cast Light to see what was going on. But as soon as he used the Illumination Spell, the first thing he saw was not the ocean currents below, but a whale about 50 meters long quietly swimming past him.
The whale glanced at Angor with its large eyes and kept moving forward without showing any interest.
Angor could deal with a normal whale like this. However, he still broke out in cold sweat. Imagine running for your life in the deep sea without seeing anything. When you reached a place where you thought you were safe, you would find yourself surrounded by giant sea creatures dozens or even hundreds of times bigger than you. That kind of fear came from the bottom of your heart.
Such was the nature of the deep sea. Even if the creatures around you were not scary, they would still give you more pressure than anything else. No matter where you ran, you would never be able to break free from the shackles of the sea.
Facing the vast, dark, and boundless ocean, humans could clearly feel how small they were. Loneliness, loneliness, helplessness, and fear would follow.
The most important thing was to be on tenterhooks about the unknown.
After the whale left, it didn't even set off too many ocean currents as it leisurely swam into the unknown.
Angor was not a mortal after all. He quickly adjusted himself and recovered from the shock. No matter how vast the ocean was, he could still see the end. Facing the endless worlds, planes, and universes, the sea was no different from humans.
Using Light, he began to observe the area below.
Light did not cover a large area, but Angor was a supernatural. As long as there was a source of light, he could easily see into the distance.
He noticed that a vortex was slowly forming near the bottom of the sea, but it quickly disappeared due to the pressure.
He waited until the ocean currents returned to normal and the dust settled to the bottom of the sea. Then he carefully dove into the water.
Just as he was about to reach the bottom of the sea, a creature with glowing green eyes rushed at him at full speed.
He quickly set up an ice wall around him, but it was not enough to stop the intruders. It began to crumble at a visible speed. The ice wall quickly crumbled apart, but it bought him some time. Angor turned sideways and cast Fear on the creature.
The combination of Fear and nightmare aura instantly turned the creature from a ferocious one into a weak one, until it began to tremble in fear.
Its dark green pupils were shrinking.
Angor heard a very low sound, which was much lower than what normal humans could hear. If Angor was not a supernatural, he would not be able to sense it.
Angor could not understand what it was. He only thought that it was some random, rhythmic yelling. "Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Maybe it was the creature's fear target?
Angor was still wondering when he noticed that the creature's heart stopped beating.
"… So it was scared to death?"
His Fear and nightmare aura allowed him to see the target of his fear. If he was hurt by the target, he would also think that he would be hurt. But in fact, his body was not damaged at all.
Did the creature's fear target kill it in the nightmare aura, so it thought that it was already dead and died for real?
Angor did not know what to say. So the creature was afraid of something that would not let it live.
He tried to communicate with the creature, but since it was already dead, there was nothing he could do.
Angor cast Light on the creature's body. It was the harpoon-wielding monster that crawled out of the fortress. Its appearance was hard to describe with words. It had two eyes and a mouth, and its nose was made of three small holes. Its skin had the characteristics of the toad family. It was slippery and secreted a strange lubricating liquid. Its skeleton was also very strange. Its head was like a sunflower, full of irregular edges.
There were six limbs. Angor assumed that the harpoon was held by its hands. But since they all looked the same, it was possible that the creature used both its hands and feet.
Apart from that, it also had a tail that looked like a tadpole.
Because of this strange combination, Angor did not know how to describe the creature.
It was not a humanoid creature, but it could use harpoons and lived in a fortress. So it must be a civilized creature.
Since he did not know what to call it, Angor decided to call it "Toad Skin".
His instinct told him that this Toad Skin was a member of a large civilization, which might have something to do with the secrets of the Sea of Purification. In other words, the exit might have something to do with these Toad Skins.
Angor trusted his instincts. But since this Toad Skin was already dead, he could not get any information from it. He could only go to the fortress to take a look or find another Toad Skin Monster.
Angor inspected the body and quickly dissected it.
The creature's organs were strange, unlike those of humans. It also had gills on its neck. Its brain took up a large part of its body, which meant it had a lot of potential.
However, Angor did not find anything special except for the mucus oozing out of the creature's skin.
Angor did not know what the mucus was for, but he could sense some energy ripples coming from it. The energy dissipated quickly, and before Angor could do anything else, the mucus had already turned into something ordinary.
Its blood was red, just like that of a human's. As soon as the corpse was dissected, several ferocious-looking fishes came to eat it.
To avoid being discovered by powerful predators, he tossed the body of the Toad Skin away and landed on a slope.
After the previous battle, the slope was a bit messy. Luckily, the fortress was a hundred meters away, so it was not affected.
Angor activated Infinite Reticence and quickly arrived outside the fortress.
He did not know if there were more Toad Skins in the fortress, nor how the last one found him. But just in case, he used Infinite Reticence at full power.
From the outside, the fortress was not big. It was only about three or four meters tall. It was not well-maintained either, but the decorations of the corals and shells made it look a bit more interesting.
Angor arrived outside the fortress and still did not see any Toad Skins.
Perhaps, this Toad Skin lived alone?
Angor looked around. It was all dark. There were no other buildings apart from the fortress.
It seemed that not only did this Toad Skin live alone, it also lived in seclusion.
The door of the fortress was at the top.
Angor slowly floated upward. When he reached the window, he looked inside. The window was a four-petaled window covered by a gelatinous, translucent membrane. Angor poked the membrane with his finger. It was tough and did not break easily.
Angor could not see clearly inside, but he did see something glowing. It looked like an oil lamp, which was giving off a dim yellow light.
Angor arrived at the top of the fortress. The door was wide open. Following the flow of water, Angor slowly floated inside.
After entering the fortress, Angor swam along the sealed pipes for a while. Finally, he came out of a gelatinous egg whose internal pressure was much lower than the external pressure.
The egg was designed so that half of it was soaked in water, while the other half was air.
He pushed the top of the egg away and entered the house without a hitch.
Before entering the fortress, he would never have thought that there would be a room without water inside. Moreover, the design of the pipes to enter was extremely exquisite. The high and low loops, the pressure, and the pressure were all taken into account. In the end, this waterless space was created.
Just the design of the entrance and exit showed that this place was far beyond the level of civilization.
Angor looked around. He was on the second floor of the room. The light he saw from the window came from here.
It was an oil lamp placed on a coral platform with a shell as its base. The oil lamp was lit by a cold flame. There was no smell of smoke in the air. Angor walked around the room.
He walked around the room. Apart from a coral table, an oil lamp, and some kind of seaweed that was used to create oxygen, there was nothing else in the room that he could find.
There was an open ladder between the second floor and the first floor.
Angor followed the ladder and climbed to the first floor. It was even more spacious here. There was only a coral bed, which looked like a bed.
Angor noticed something else. The walls of the room were carved with strange characters, as well as primitive totems that looked like humans.
