Brute Cavern, inside Tree Spirit's palace.
Rein, who was dressed impeccably, was facing Tree Spirit, who was completely naked.
They each took a side of the room and remained silent. Suddenly, Tree Spirit took out a leaf. The small leaf was glowing faintly.
"You got the message?" Rein's voice sounded a little hoarse.
"Yes. Filo sent a message from the Edge of Night. "Tree Spirit's brows furrowed as he carefully read the symbols on the leaf.
"Bad news?" Rein asked again.
"Very bad." Tree Spirit put away the leaf and said seriously, "In just one month, there are three more Dark Domes in the Kingdom of Evernight besides the Realm of Darkness in Sleepless City."
Three Dark Domes? Rhine's expression turned serious.
"Two of them belong to mortals, Snowridge City and Draconic Orchid Town. Another Dark Dome appeared in the hinterland of Light Frost Scar, which belongs to supernaturals. "
"Light Frost Scar? That's the name of the Cheryl Family. But ever since the old Cheryl died, the family has been declining. " Rein considered. "Judging from the frequency, the Dark Domes are more interested in supernaturals. Maybe Snowridge City and Draconic Orchid Town are just experiments. After Light Frost Scar, the wizarding world of the Evernight Kingdom is going to change."
Tree Spirit nodded. "Filo thinks so too. The Evernight Kingdom is in a state of panic right now. Several wizard clans have already announced that they will leave the Evernight Kingdom."
"What about Edge of Night?" Rein asked. "Are they still going to stay in the Evernight Kingdom?"
"Edge of Night isn't doing well either. Their teleportation portal is crowded with people every day. Even their HQ members are trying to leave. I think Mister Edge of Night is under a lot of pressure as well. He's considering whether to stay or leave, "Tree Spirit joked.
"Greyhughes is an indecisive man. It'll take some time for him to make a decision. But this is related to us as well. We're not affected yet, but some infected humans have already entered Parmigi Highlands. If they enter the mirror world, the consequences will be unimaginable. " Rhine's expression changed slightly. "I think that the wording we used before was too lax. We should be more restrained in the next issue of Mirror."
"If nothing unexpected happens, it's very difficult for a dome to appear in the mirror world. Parasites, on the other hand, had to be taken note of. It's a pity that Sunders went to the Abyss Plane. " Tree Spirit shook his head. "I heard his student, Angor, also knows how to drive away parasites. But he's on his way home now."
"Angor has a way to expel parasites?" This was the first time Rein heard of such a thing.
"Last time, Midnight Sovereign was ambushed by nightmare monsters. Parasites filled the entire city. Sunders couldn't do anything by himself. He had to ask Angor to help him. "Tree Spirit sighed.
Rein only knew that Sunders was the one who got rid of the parasites in Midnight Sovereign. He had no idea that Angor was the one who helped him. Sunders did this on purpose to protect Angor, who had yet to grow up.
"Interesting. I'll have to meet Angor when he comes back," Rein said. Angor's image appeared in Rhine's mind. "Now that you mention it, I miss that illusion Angor made … Monument Valley. Interesting stuff."
"I heard a lot of people talking about that alchemy illusion recently. Even Mister Rhine likes it."
"It's very interesting indeed. It's very likely that Greya was inspired by it." Rhine liked Monument Valley a lot, but he would never forget the strong Nightmare Realm aura in Witch's Town.
Tree Spirit rubbed his chin. "According to the people in the underground market, Angor's alchemy illusion will be auctioned off at Remnant Riverbank in the near future. I think I'll need to send a puppet to check it out. If it's not too expensive, I'll try to get it. "
"An auction at Remnant Riverbank, huh?" Rhine muttered as his eyes flickered.
"Speaking of parasites, the most important thing is that Lady Mirror is in hibernation. If she's here, we won't have to worry about the parasites. Why don't we go ask the Elder of Books and see what he thinks?"
"It's not easy to meet the Elder of Books. But I heard that he's been drinking tea at Iron Fortress lately. Maybe we can go check out The Tributary."
With that, they prepared to head to The Tributary.
But at this moment, Tree Spirit paused and took out a leaf that was glowing faintly.
"Don't tell me … the dome appeared again?" Rhine looked at the leaf.
"It's not from Filo. It's from Maya." Tree Spirit carefully read the message on the leaf and frowned.
"Maya? Didn't she go to Brilliance Plane? What did she say?"
"Something is happening in Fairy World."
…
The surface world of Fairy World.
Shadow had been searching the forest for a long time. He sent many geologists and archaeologists to look for the "Pocratee" that Angor accidentally told them about.
During their time together, Shadow knew that Angor cared a lot about the Serpent Kingdom, Akesolya.
Angor didn't admit it when he talked to the Grand Priest of Krakoks, but Shadow could easily deduce that Angor once saw Akesolya's worshiping serpent, Akesolya.
As for where Angor saw Akesolya? Pocratee, no doubt.
It used to be a holy land for doctors.
Shadow returned to the surface world to find a way to reach Pocratee. He didn't think he could defeat Akesolya alone, but he was prepared to run away. If he could find a wizard-level monster here, it would be a valuable piece of information. It might even help him break through.
Besides, he was also interested in the "Awl of Eternity" mentioned by the Grand Priest. Maybe he could find something else in Pocratee.
It had been three months since he came to this place. He had found many traces of the Serpent Kingdom, such as a rope ladder on the mountain wall, a buried ruin, and a porcelain plate found in the river.
This place used to belong to the Serpent Kingdom. But why couldn't he find any trace of Pocratee?
Shadow stood at the top of the mountain and looked around. The men he hired were still searching in the forest conscientiously. Standing on a mountain peak that was more than 1,500 meters high, they looked like ants searching for a piece of land.
"Where is Pocratee going to appear? We've searched every inch of this place. Are we going to dig three feet into the ground? " Shadow frowned and shook his head. "Angor doesn't look like someone who would dig three feet into the ground for no reason. Besides, he came to Fairy World alone. He couldn't have hired so many people to dig the ground for him. There must be something I didn't notice."
While Shadow was deep in thought, his face was facing the southwest direction.
In addition to the dense forest in the southwest, there was also a serene lake.
"Lake …" Shadow's eyes widened. He had searched everywhere except for this lake. Could it be at the bottom of the lake?
With that in mind, Shadow ordered his men to dive into the lake.
Soon, Shadow received news that the lake was connected to a large underground body of water. Without air supply, it would be difficult for mortals to continue searching.
For the sake of his own safety, Shadow did not plan to dive in himself. Instead, he thought for a moment and wrote a note for his three brothers, Jarmie, Jarmie, and Jarmie, to bring it to Water Grasse. He did not forget that the members of the supernatural gathering were still there.
Three days later, several low-tier supernaturals went to the bottom of the lake under Shadow's puppet's control.
Soon, a man who called himself "Magician" came up and told Shadow that he found a tunnel.
Shadow's expression lit up. After knowing that the tunnel wasn't far from the lake, he had Magician lead a group of mortals who were better at swimming towards the tunnel while he himself remained in the water.
Shadow sat by the lakeside, waiting for the results without any worries.
But in the end, he only received a group of crazy people and a large swarm of colorful dragonflies.
…
Meanwhile, Angor had no idea that Shadow had already lured the colorful dragonflies from Pocratee into Fairy World, which would cause a great disturbance in the near future.
Angor was currently standing on the balcony, trying to get through another dangerous situation since he entered Devil's Water.
Behind The Limpet, a 30-meter-tall wave was approaching.
The ship was shaking violently in the storm. Every sailor was tied to a thick rope that was connected to the mast at the center of the ship. They were trying their best to guide the ship forward.
But even so, there were still a few sailors who were thrown into the air by the waves.
One of the sailors' hemp ropes was even torn apart by the hurricane, and he was about to be shaken off and thrown into the sea.
Angor reached out a Hand of Spell to catch the man and put him on the mast while the sailor looked at him with gratitude.
The speed of the ship was now very fast. Under the huge waves, they could only try their best to find a slightly flat place to move forward in the turbulent sea. At the same time, they also had to race against the huge waves. Otherwise, the ship would be overturned by a single wave.
But the waves were getting bigger and faster. If they kept going like this, they would definitely be overtaken.
Even Angor was trying to figure out a way to save The Limpet from such a dire situation. He looked at the captain's cabin and saw that Erwin and Helen didn't seem to be panicking at all. They were still giving orders to the ship.
Erwin suddenly ordered the ship to slow down.
Angor looked at the huge wave behind them. He didn't know what Erwin was trying to do. Slowing down meant they were going to be eaten by the waves. However, the sailors didn't question the captain's order and obeyed it without hesitation.
Angor pursed his lips and felt a little nervous.
Because the ship had slowed down, the wave hit the ship ten meters behind them. The impact was so strong that The Limpet was sent flying into the air.
"Now!" Erwin gestured again.
The Limpet, which was still floating in the air, suddenly released a blast of air from the bottom of the ship. Angor widened his eyes as he watched The Limpet fly away like a deflated balloon. Whoosh! The ship flew away for several kilometers and left the giant wave far behind.
Angor knew that The Limpet was safe again, but he didn't have to worry about it.
Angor couldn't help but admire them. They might be mortals, but they still managed to stay calm in the face of danger. Even he wouldn't be able to do that if he were in their shoes.
An hour later, the sky cleared up, and the waves finally calmed down.
Angor was about to return to his cabin to continue his research. But just as he turned around, he caught a glimpse of Helen gazing into the distance with a worried expression.
