Angor rejected Sunders' suggestion.
Once he entered the Gravity Garden, Nausica and the others would have no chance of surviving the parasites.
Sunders chuckled. He wasn't surprised by Angor's decision.
Suddenly, he raised an eyebrow and looked at a tiny creature behind Angor's feet.
When he arrived, he used his spirit feelers to scan everyone in the area. However, he did not notice the puppy behind Angor's feet.
"Why is it still following you?"
Sunders was about to ask what was going on with the puppy when he heard Sunders' voice. But before he could, Yorkshire's cold voice reached their ears. "Hiss!"
"You two just won't go away. Especially you, Mister Watcher. Not only do you refuse to serve the Queen, but you're also trying to stop her from going out …" Yorkshire suddenly paused and looked at Angor who was standing beside him.
"Greetings, Lady Shava."
Greya followed Yorkshire's gaze and looked at Angor with a thoughtful look.
Angor was planning to take Nausica and the others to the edge of the darkness to see if they could find another way to leave this place. Since Yorkshire suddenly pointed out his identity, Angor looked up in surprise.
The place where Yorkshire was standing was surrounded by a dark void. Angor could only see a shadow in front of him.
But now, he finally saw Yorkshire's true form as he followed the golden strings to the nest.
As Sunders said, Yorkshire wasn't in human form. Instead, it was a strange-looking … python.
He wore a blood-red crown on his head, and his eyes were turbid yellow. His eyes were constantly emitting a cold and cruel light. Its body was covered in dark scales, which were covered with countless golden strings. The strings sometimes weaved into butterfly wings, which allowed the python to fly. Other times, they weaved into claws, which made the python look like a dragon from ancient Huaxia.
The most peculiar thing was that behind Yorkshire, there were three wooden puppets bound by golden strings. They were almost identical to the female puppet that they had met outside the Teleportation Hall.
"Lord Shava, why are you with this traitorous Watcher? The Queen set this place as an outpost when she went on an inspection tour. You … are making an enemy of the Queen!" Yorkshire's tone suddenly changed from respectful to cold.
Angor narrowed his eyes. This was the first time a nightmare monster treated him so harshly apart from "Shava".
"You know who you are, Yorkshire. What right do you have to question Lady Shava's decision?" Sunders suddenly spoke up when he was trying to think of a way to talk to Yorkshire. "Yorkshire, you know who you are. What right do you have to question Shava's decision?"
"You!" Yorkshire didn't know how to respond. "You …" But he didn't say anything else. Instead, the look in his eyes became even more vicious.
Sunders grinned. "You have no right to question Lady Shava's decision. it's between you and me and Shava's decision. This is between you and me. What does it have to do with Lady Shava? "
Yorkshire didn't answer. It only gave Sunders a vicious look.
Greya, on the other hand, gave Sunders a questioning look. Sunders didn't say anything. Instead, he lowered his head and sent a voice transmission to Angor. "Leave now. I'll find you later."
Angor cast a cold glance at Yorkshire, who quickly turned his head away to avoid Angor's gaze.
"Yorkshire, Mister Watcher is right. How dare you question Lady Shava's decision? If you tell Her Majesty about what you just said, you'll never be able to get out of this alive. " Fox, the Red Fox, landed beside Yorkshire with an exquisite harp, accompanied by a fragrant wind.
"Fox, you should know that Lady Shava is the one who destroyed our —"
"Watch your words." Fox's seductive eyes flashed with a cold light. Seeing that Yorkshire was still showing a hint of hostility, she sighed and transmitted her voice, "Do you think Her Excellency Shava is more important to the Queen, or a small planar outpost?"
"And remember, we're all just pawns, while Lady Shava is —"
Fox's words silenced Yorkshire.
However, since they were using voice transmissions, no one could tell what they were talking about.
"Leave now. You can't join the battle here." Sunders sent another voice transmission. Angor nodded and stepped onto Toby's back.
"I'll be going." Angor told Toby to fly into the air.
Toby circled in the air for a while before he carried Nausica and the others away into the darkness.
Not long after Toby left, a series of fiery explosions erupted behind them.
Angor flew to the sky and saw the explosion coming from the lake. His eyes showed a complicated expression. If he had been there, he probably wouldn't have been able to last even a second against the high-energy reaction that soared into the sky.
Angor shook his head and returned to Toby's back. He told Toby to take them to the edge of the darkness.
Now that Angor had achieved all his goals in coming to Sleepless City, Toby flew at a steady pace.
He pulled the puppy to him and thanked it in a low voice. "Oh, thank you for your help." If it weren't for the puppy, he wouldn't have been able to save Nausica so easily.
Not long ago, Angor gained something from the puppy's body. He was still a soul, so he couldn't experiment on it yet. But regardless of whether he succeeded or not, it would help him greatly in his journey to become a Mystery Alchemist.
No matter what, his gratitude was sincere. However, he was still worried about the dog's safety because of the previous scare.
Whether it swallowed Angor or chewed on Hookdick's soul, Angor had a strange feeling about it. Plus, the puppy always looked harmless, which made it difficult for Angor to trust it completely.
He only brought the puppy with him because he couldn't think of a way to leave this place. Since Yorkshire was the one who created the Dark Realm, he wanted to test if the spotted dog could do anything about it.
While he studied the puppy carefully, Nausica was already able to move. She leaned on Toby's mane and waved at Angor. "Shan told me that we'd all be dead if it weren't for you."
Angor waved a hand. "Don't mention it. I have something I need you to do anyway. Consider it a reward."
"I'm all ears." Nausica shrugged.
Angor already told Nausica about the Krakoks last time. It just so happened that the Krakoks were staying at Phantom Island. Once he was done here, he could ask Nausica to take a look at their bloodline.
"That's easy. I'll check it out as soon as I leave this place." Nausica nodded.
She knew that Angor didn't want her to feel too burdened. She accepted his kind intentions, but this did not prevent her from remembering his life-saving grace in her heart.
"By the way, I heard from Shan that you've killed Hookdick?" Unlike Shan, Nausica didn't look sad at all. As far as she was concerned, Hookdick's death was a great relief. She didn't have to kill him herself.
"Yeah. I didn't think he was hiding in Sleepless City all this time."
"Mister 'Fire Walker' Filo is the resident wizard of Sleepless City. He's a close friend of Mister Ness. That's why Hookdick chose to stay here." Nausica frowned. "Hookdick is a Soul Manipulator. Are you sure you destroyed his soul as well?"
Angor nodded. "Of course. I'm still a soul now, so I know what I'm doing."
Both Nausica and Shan widened their eyes in surprise. "You're still a soul?"
"I didn't use a single cantrip along the way. Can't you tell?" "Yeah, right.
Nausica and Shan looked at each other. "No, we didn't," they said at the same time.
Nausica clicked her tongue. "Look at his soul. You don't even need to kill him. He's already pissed to death."
Now that they no longer felt burdened, they felt a lot more relaxed. However, he noticed that Shan was also smiling when talking to them, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes.
It seemed that Gank's death hadn't helped her get over her grief.
As for Shiliew, she didn't mind being called the "Sleeping Drizzle". After making sure she was safe, she went back to sleep.
"Speaking of my soul, it's strange. After what happened at the bottom of the lake, I noticed that my soul is much stronger than before," Nausica muttered in confusion.
"Fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. I guess that's what happened to you after you destroyed the Prototype Puppet."
"Prototype Puppet …" Nausica considered the term carefully. Then she recalled the strange python named Yorkshire. "What happened here, Angor? That snake, and that puppet prototype you spoke of, what exactly are they? "
"There are a lot of things we shouldn't know about. Knowing too much isn't a good thing."
Nausica considered and nodded. "I see." She then looked at the puppy. "You won't tell me if I ask you where the puppy came from, right?"
Angor scratched his head. "I don't know where it came from either."
"Alright." Nausica stopped asking questions and told Angor what happened after Yorkshire took her away.
