"Yorkshire?"
The name flashed across Angor's mind.
He didn't expect Sunders to ask about this "name" as soon as he came out.
His memory of the name was so vague that he almost forgot it himself. If Sunders did not mention it, he would never have remembered the name.
"I've heard the name before. But I'm not sure if it's the person I'm thinking about, professor."
Sunders nodded. "Who are you thinking about? Someone from the Padt Family? "
Angor nodded and was about to answer when he suddenly felt his right hand becoming sluggish. Before he could react, a gust of wind suddenly appeared in the narrow room.
Moreover, when this gust of wind first rose, it began to leap with the momentum of a whale swallowing the sea.
It was only a gentle breeze at first, but it soon became the eye of the storm.
The room was already dark to begin with. The gust of wind quickly extinguished the last remaining candle in the room. In the pitch-black room, only the whistling of the wind could be heard.
"What's going on, Angor?" Sunders' anxious voice came from their Spirit Bond.
"I don't know. Why is there a gust of wind?"
"It's not wind! It's … an energy storm. And … an energy storm with you at the center! "Sunders' spirit power began to stutter as the wind grew stronger.
An energy storm? Of course, Angor knew what an energy storm was. When a stable energy source collapsed for a split second, it would cause an energy storm.
An energy storm was an atypical disaster that could break the balance of power. In the wizarding world, energy storms occurred frequently because of the ubiquitous elements and primal mana.
Devil's Water was always in chaos due to the frequent occurrence of energy storms. A normal natural phenomenon could easily cause the collapse of a stable energy source and cause an energy storm.
The power of an energy storm depended on the stability of the energy source and the total amount of energy in the area.
Now, Sunders told him that he was the cause of the energy storm, and Angor was completely unaware of it. Was the primal mana in this area so unstable that it collapsed as soon as he showed up?
But it couldn't be …
Fortunately, he was at the center of the energy storm, which did not do any harm to him.
At this moment, the energy storm changed every second, and the roof made of ordinary stone was clearly unable to withstand it.
The ceiling was lifted up by a tornado-like whirlwind, revealing the pitch-black sky.
The tornado was like a twisting and dancing line, reaching the top of the Dark Domain. Around this "line", the originally stagnant aura of darkness was slowly being swept up, and the pitch-black world was slowly fading.
It was as if clear water had been added to ink, diluting the surrounding darkness.
"It's not a storm caused by primal mana. It's the collapse of the nightmare energy," said Angor in a clear voice.
He looked up and saw Sunders standing beside him without him noticing.
His hat had been blown away, revealing a head of short grey-green hair. His originally neat and tidy gentleman's suit had also been scraped open, and the silk lining could be faintly seen.
Sunders' eyes gleamed in the darkness as he stared at Angor's right hand.
"Your right hand absorbed the nightmare energy around you, which caused the energy collapse. That's what caused this energy storm." While speaking, Sunders grabbed Angor's right hand and raised it above his head.
As Sunders did this, the tornado in the sky slowly swayed, which confirmed Angor's guess.
"Absorbing nightmare energy from a distance … Where did it go?" Sunders muttered to himself.
Angor also noticed something strange about his right hand. He could not move it at all, and a strange sensation was spreading from his right hand to his body.
Following the flow of the sensation, Angor found the source of the energy — his mind space.
"Professor, my mana pool is expanding! It's all going into my mana pool!" Angor exclaimed. In just one minute, his mana pool had expanded by one-sixth of its original size.
Apprentices were divided into four stages for each level: beginner, intermediate, advanced, and peak.
Angor used to be a beginner level-3 apprentice. But after what just happened, he was slowly approaching the level of an intermediate level-3 apprentice, and it was still growing.
Angor was terrified by the sudden increase in power.
For something like a mana source, if there wasn't a stable foundation, once an accident occurred, there would be no possibility of recovery!
Sunders was planning to study it further, but he quickly gave up after hearing Angor's words. He wrapped Angor's spirit power around him. "Don't resist. I'll take you to the gravity garden."
Angor felt his mind going blank for a moment. For the first time, he clearly sensed the energy collapse. Before he could take a closer look, he was already inside the gravity garden.
Toby flapped his wings and flew toward Angor as soon as he entered the garden. But when he saw the man beside Angor, Toby stopped and hovered in the air.
This time, Sunders followed Angor into the garden.
Angor quickly checked his mana pool. It had expanded by one-sixth of its original size. Normally, it would take him at least half a year to achieve this.
But now, his mana pool grew bigger overnight. It didn't seem to be a problem for now. But this was exactly why Angor was worried.
While Angor was immersed in his mind space, Sunders was looking at Angor's right hand in confusion.
He thought Angor's right hand was a large "nightmare stone" that could compensate for the nightmare aura and strengthen his illusions. But he didn't expect that the stone could also absorb nightmare energy to nourish his mana pool.
But that didn't make sense. His mana pool contained primal mana. Nightmare energy and primal mana were two different things. How did the energy from the nightmare world expand his mana pool?
"How is it? Is there anything wrong with your mana pool? "Sunders asked.
Angor shook his head. "It's one-sixth of its original size. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. But I don't know if it's just a facade. Maybe it's already damaged inside."
Expanding one's mana pool required constant meditation, and then slowly accumulating mana through the backflow of mana. Angor didn't think it was a good idea to expand his mana pool all of a sudden. He even imagined a water bucket that was forcefully expanded so that the inside of the bucket was full of holes.
Sunders shook his head when he saw Angor's worried look. "One-sixth isn't a lot. Don't scare yourself. Your situation is different. Did you forget how you became a level-1 apprentice when you became a level-2 apprentice?"
Twilight pushed him into a plane passageway that was said to be connected to the Nightmare Realm. Inside the plane passageway, Angor found that his training was very effective. Within a month, he became a mid-tier level-2 apprentice.
Back then, Angor didn't think too much about it. He thought he just went to a treasure trove for training. But now that he thought about it, he realized there were some similarities between the two places.
With the help of the nightmare aura, his training speed increased tremendously.
Back then, Angor only felt it when he was meditating. But now, he was using his right hand as a medium to absorb the nightmare aura to expand his mana pool.
"Nightmare aura can increase my training speed?" Angor asked.
Sunders chuckled. "I don't know about other people, but I can't." But I can't deny it completely. After all, you're a living example. "
"Even if it's true, the power I gained out of nowhere is like floating duckweed." Angor looked at his right hand with a worried look.
Sunders nodded in approval. "You're right. Power comes from your own training. However, it's not like you can't use this opportunistic method. The premise is that you have to grasp the essence of this' rapid increase in strength '. Otherwise, it's very likely to be an obstacle on your path to seeking the truth. "
Angor understood this, but he still looked worried.
Sunders shook his head. Angor was the only one who was worried about increasing his power.
"Open your mind. I'll check your mana pool for you," Sunders said.
Angor nodded. Sunders should be able to see the problem with his mana pool. With a nervous heart, he opened up his mind.
A gentle spirit force entered his mind.
It lingered around his mana pool for a moment before withdrawing.
Sunders shook his head. "So far, your mana pool is fine. Your foundation is solid. Also, Maya predicted that your right hand won't do you any harm. "
Sunders saw Angor sighed in relief and continued, "But just to be safe, let's observe it for a while. When we're done here, I'll go to that underground village you mentioned and see if the nightmare aura in the plane passageway will cause your right hand to change again. "
Angor was a little surprised. If he went to Pocratee … would he run into Akeso the giant snake?
Sunders didn't notice Angor's expression. He was thinking about something else. "I can't let you out for now. Otherwise, you'll cause another energy storm …"
Sunders sighed again. Anything related to the Nightmare Realm always brought up strange things. Especially Angor. What was his identity in the Nightmare Realm? What was wrong with his body? Why did the nightmare aura increase his mana pool?
These were all mysteries.
Never mind. The more he thought about it, the more complicated it would get.
"Let's put that aside for now. Answer my first question. Who's Yorkshire?"
