A loud noise came from the distance.
He followed the voice and saw a dozen apprentices wrapped in thick robes standing outside the dark dome. A female wizard in a revealing outfit was holding a whip as she ordered them to enter the outer city of Sleepless City, which was called the Dark Domain.
The wizard was wearing a nearly transparent cloak. From behind, Angor could see that she was only wearing a thin pink undergarment. The most eye-catching part of her body was a black, reddish succubus tail that was wagging from side to side.
Every time she swung her whip, one could clearly see the rhythm of her graceful body. Then, accompanied by the sound of excited panting, the group of Adepts rushed into the darkness one by one as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
Filo stopped explaining because of the commotion. He saw Angor looking at the young apprentice with great interest. Since Sunders was right next to him, Filo wanted to get closer to Angor. "She's' Whip Witch 'Rak' Ksa from the Elysium Domain. Those apprentices are all her students. She sent them into the outer city to investigate the situation inside. This is the fifth group. "
"The fifth group? Did they get any news? "
Filo shook his head. "Of course not. Even wizards were killed when they tried to enter the outer city, let alone apprentices."
Sunders suddenly asked, "Were there any wizards who went in the past two days?"
Filo nodded. "Yes. Witches Dinan, Kelly, and Gragg from Sleepless City … … At least twenty wizards went in, but not a single one of them came out. There was even a rank 2 wizard among them."
"The energy within a thousand kilometers around Sleepless City is in chaos. They can't open the plane interlayer, so all the wizards are trapped inside. More and more organizations have come to the inner city these days, but none of them dared to go in themselves. Most of them sent their apprentices and servants to try their luck. "
"Close to zero." Sunders chuckled. "Do you know if any truth-finder wizards went in?"
Most truth-finders had their own secret methods that allowed them to open plane interlayers by force. However, it was still dangerous to find a way out from the chaotic space.
Filo shook his head without hesitation. "No."
"According to what you said, there hasn't been any news about the situation in the outer city for the past two days. We don't know what exactly happened inside." "So they're all waiting for the right opportunity. Too bad Maya isn't interested in this place at all. She's all about that dumb kid you brought back."
The latter part of his words was directed at Angor.
He had gone to see Maya when he had received Ferro's message. However, Maya wasn't interested in this place at all. She was focused on her new disciple, Dodoro.
"Didn't Lady Maya mention anything about this?" Angor asked.
Sunders shook his head. "This incident involves the strings of the world. Prophets won't get any useful information without seeing it with their own eyes."
This time, they didn't use the Spirit Bond. Instead, they spoke directly.
Filo suddenly spoke up, "Speaking of prophets, there aren't any in Sleepless City. But I heard that some other wizard organizations sent one here. Mister Radiance also went there not long ago. But it seems that he can only tell if a wizard is dead or alive by observing some minor details. He can't do anything else. "
"Life or death? That's a lot of information. Looks like I'll have to go see Douglas later, "Sunders muttered to himself.
After getting a general idea of the situation, Sunders began to ask Filo about the details of what happened in the darkness.
It had to do with the Nightmare Realm and the two monsters. Sunders didn't hesitate to ask.
As expected, Sunders managed to discover some details that Filo had not noticed before.
"How many sentences did that strange frog-like voice say?" Sunders asked.
Filo tried to recall. "Two sentences. They all started with praises. Something about the queen, Shava, moonlight, and so on …"
Sunders narrowed his eyes after listening to Filo's explanation.
Frogman's croaking voice was definitely from Frogman. Filo didn't see Froggy, but the creature's voice could be heard all over the city.
Froggy said two sentences. The first one was before the darkness came. "There's no moonlight here. It's filthy." Then it added, "This place will be cleaned up soon."
As soon as it finished speaking, the darkness invaded Sleepless City. It seemed Froggy knew what was going on in Sleepless City.
As for whether the Realm of Darkness in Sleepless City was created by the two Demons, it was easy to tell from the second sentence of the Demon's speech.
Froggy's second sentence was when Filo and the others worked together to open the plane passageway, and a large amount of mysterious energy came out of the dark vortex.
"Praise the queen, praise Shava …" Froggy's last sentence was abrupt. "Why are you here?"
Froggy's meaning was clear. An unexpected monster showed up in the dark vortex.
This meant that even though the frog had come to Sleepless City, there were still some things that it didn't know.
If that was the case, the frog and the fox might have been forced to come to Sleepless City instead of choosing the city on their own accord.
Froggy's last sentence also confirmed Sunders' suspicions. This proved Sunders' theory that there was indeed a nightmare tunnel in the darkness.
And that passage was most likely the source of the dark vortex.
As for what the frog was looking at — the nightmare monster behind the dark vortex — it was hard to tell.
However, from their tone, it could be seen that although the frog monster was a little surprised, they probably knew the "new monster".
In other words, there might not only be Fox the Harpsichord and Froggy the Frog, but also … an unknown monster from the core of the Nightmare Realm!
…
Sunders asked Filo several more times to make sure he didn't miss any details. Sunders took Angor to Douglas so that he could learn more about the Prophet's conclusion.
On their way to Douglas, Sunders used their Spirit Bond to tell Angor about his analysis.
Especially the monster that came from the core area of the Nightmare Realm. Judging from the powerful aura, Angor could tell that the monster had a powerful Mystery item.
Angor had no way to protect himself against such an unknown enemy. Sunders was trying to warn Angor not to push himself too hard and to hide inside the Gravity Garden in case of danger.
Angor nodded with a serious expression, but he was actually thinking about something else.
When Filo was explaining the details, he had said that Nessie's disciple had been corrupted by evil and had almost destroyed the planar passageway they had constructed.
Ness' disciple was a woman wearing a bamboo hat.
From Filo's description, Angor was almost certain that the woman was Hookdick.
Angor couldn't find Hookdick's whereabouts even after using the Bartterfly Pub's intelligence network. He didn't expect to hear about him here.
In fact, the news of Hookdick's death in Sleepless City wasn't bad news for him.
However, Filo mentioned that Shiliew was also in Sleepless City. And she was fighting against Hookdick.
If Shiliew was here, did that mean Nausica and Shan were also here? According to his sources, they all left Brute Cavern at the same time.
Angor shook his head and sighed. If they were really trapped inside, based on the current situation, they could only pray for their own good luck.
A short while later, they were able to locate Douglas based on Filo's description.
Douglas was inside a makeshift magic hut, which was quite spacious. Apart from him, there were also a dozen powerful wizards inside.
They were standing in front of an illusion sand table, which was simulating the situation outside Sleepless City. Douglas, who was wearing a pure white wizard robe with golden edges, was standing in front of the sand table, moving the buildings on it from time to time.
Sunders' arrival attracted everyone's attention.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Angor retreated several meters away. Since Sunders was the one who brought him in, the wizards only glanced at him and ignored him.
Unfortunately, Angor couldn't hear anything because of the sound-proof barrier around him.
He simply walked to the window of the hut and stared at the darkness in the distance, his heart heavy with worry.
Suddenly, he had a strange feeling that someone was watching him.
Angor had attracted a lot of attention on his way here. But since most of the wizards around him were wizards, he didn't pay much attention to him. Even if someone was looking at him, they could easily read all the information in one glance.
This was the first time he was being stared at for so long.
Angor turned around and looked at the source of the stare.
