Angor began to write down everything that happened in Specter's Water in detail.
He even added some nightmare illusions into his notes so that he wouldn't forget about the giant undead creature that showed up at the end of the battle. He recorded the situation at that time in the form of an illusion simulation.
This method was taught to him by Sunders. Not only could he use illusions to record what happened, but he could also encrypt the recorded information.
It was only a simple trick, but it would be difficult for someone who didn't understand nightmare illusions to decipher it.
Angor put down the pen, but his frown was still there.
That crab looked very similar to the jellyfish he encountered earlier. Apart from its size, the way it gathered and absorbed the undead creatures was exactly the same. Also, the crab could order the undead creatures around it, which meant it was a special undead creature just like the jellyfish.
This was the first time he heard of such a unique undead creature that could think for itself. At least, he didn't see anything like it anywhere else.
Or was it a local product of Specter's Water?
Angor was also wondering why the crab showed up on the island right after the jellyfish's death. Was it sleeping under the island like the other undead creatures? But why didn't it do anything when The Limpet approached the island?
Angor rubbed his forehead. His head was full of question marks. He didn't even know why the jellyfish tried to stop The Limpet.
"Forget it. I don't want to think about it anymore."
An apprentice who could cast a Cleanse spell was worried about a legendary wizard's heart. That was how Angor felt right now. Angor knew that Specter's Water was full of mysteries that even truth-finder wizards couldn't solve, but he couldn't help but want to find out more.
He had heard from Helen that the reason Summer Dew lived in the center of the Devil's Sea was to research the secrets of the Devil's Sea.
This was a common problem of most adepts. They were serious.
But Angor was only an apprentice right now. He didn't have the strength to do so. The only thing he could do was to write down his questions in his notebook and wait until he was strong enough to solve them one by one.
Angor put the notebook away helplessly.
He wanted to calm himself down before dealing with the leather that he had tanned before entering the Spirit Sea.
Before he could do anything, Toby hopped onto the desk and began to chirp while drawing a "jellyfish" pattern with its wings.
"You saw how disgusting that jellyfish was, and you still want to wear its skin?" Angor wondered if Toby had a unique sense of beauty.
Toby: I just like her. You promised me before!
Toby was worried that Angor might go back on his words.
This was the first time Angor saw Toby looking forward to something so much. Even the panda suit was not this desperate.
"You already have enough clothes. What do you like about that jellyfish?" Angor took out a piece of ice muslin and half a dozen chiffons from his bracelet.
Since he already made a promise, he did not intend to go back on it. While comparing the materials, he took out a piece of white paper and a pen and prepared to draw a basic draft.
Toby also answered his question.
Angor was amused by what he heard.
It turned out that the reason why this guy was so eager was because he had taken a fancy to the "glowing" feature. Toby slapped his forehead as if to say, "I never thought I could do this."
"Don't you feel ashamed wearing a glowing suit?" Angor complained, but he did not slow down at all. In just a few strokes, a dreamy puffy jellyfish dress appeared on the paper.
Before Toby could answer, Angor answered his own question. "You're a male bird, but you don't mind wearing a dress at all. I shouldn't expect anything from you."
Angor could only hope that the "glowing" was just Toby's whim, and that the dress would return to being a normal jacket. He did not want to open a door to a whole new world.
Toby's clothes were made quickly. Toby was only interested in the glowing suit. Jellyfish were known for their gentleness in the sea. Also, the "canopy" of a jellyfish was filled with liquid, so it would float up and down naturally. To achieve this, Angor added a rune that attracted the wind to keep the dress fluttering in the wind.
After it was completed, the dreamy glowing tutu immediately attracted Toby's attention.
After asking Angor to put it on, Toby flew out of the room and showed off the dress to everyone on The Limpet. Then it returned to the bedroom and asked Angor to put the dress into his bracelet.
Clearly, Toby wanted to enjoy the shameful dress with his little friend, the Moonlily Fairy.
After putting Toby inside the bracelet, Toby quickly went to find the Moonlily Fairy.
Angor looked around. Neither of them was a female, so why were they talking about dresses together? Also, Toby had taken off his dress and let the Moon Lily Fairy compare the size of the dress.
The scene was so beautiful that Angor shivered a little and shifted his attention away from the two creatures.
He didn't leave the bracelet right away. Instead, he searched around for a while and took out a leather scroll from a corner.
The Log of Lucas, the Most Honest Captain in the Age of Gold.
Earlier, when he was making the dress for Toby, he couldn't help but recall images related to jellyfish. From the Undead Jellyfish, to the Death Jellyfish in Death Ring, and even the jellyfish he saw in documentaries back on Earth.
It was as if he automatically found the word "jellyfish" in his memory.
In the end, he recalled Lucas' logbook. Lucas mentioned something about jellyfish as well.
Although he didn't think that the jellyfish mentioned by Lucas had anything to do with the undead jellyfish, he couldn't remember where Lucas had recorded the jellyfish in his logbook. So, he took it out and flipped through it.
Reading Lucas' logbook again, he still felt that the title of "most honest captain" should be left with a question mark. Many of the stories in the log were similar to those of fantasy novels recorded in his hologram tablet.
Soon, he saw a line of words on the wall.
"Spirit of Jellyfish Island?" Angor frowned when he saw what Lucas wrote.
According to Lucas' log, he arrived at a sunny sea area, where there was a small country called "Giant Spirit Kingdom". The country was made up of countless islands, and the people on each island believed in an Island Spirit. Among them, Lucas mentioned the Jellyfish Island Spirit.
Angor also saw the Crab Island Spirit, the Starfish Island Spirit, the Clam Island Spirit …
The log didn't mention what an Island Spirit was. It only mentioned that the Island Spirits were huge and worshipped by the islanders.
For some reason, Angor was reminded of the jellyfish and the crab that crawled out of the island. Could they be the "Island Spirits" mentioned by Lucas?
And the undead attached to them were actually the people of the island recorded in the log?
But wasn't that too far from the truth? On one side, there were undead creatures, and on the other side, there were worshipped Island Spirits. On the other side, there was dark and gloomy, while on the other side, there was bright sunlight.
But it didn't look like it.
Still, it wasn't hard to prove whether they were related or not. According to Lucas' log, he mentioned a lot of Island Spirits. But the most special one was the spirit of the island where the capital of Giant Spirit Kingdom was located.
The spirit of the island at the center of the sea area was a towering giant.
If there was also an undead giant on the island at the center of Specter Sea … In that case, there might be a connection between the two.
It was easy to prove it, but he had to go deep into the strange Specter Sea first. He didn't want to get himself killed there.
But even if there was an undead giant on the island at the center of Specter Sea, it didn't mean Lucas' log was real.
The more Angor read about Lucas' log, the weirder it felt.
If Lucas' log was real, then why did the rumors he heard and the things he saw didn't match up with Lucas' log?
For example, Lucas wrote that he shed tears and a sea of flowers appeared on the sea surface. But according to Tulu's story, it was Naya who shed tears and created the sea of flowers.
Gender, time, and place were all different. Only the core events were similar.
Just like the undead in the Sea of Spirits this time, if the existence of the giant undead was really confirmed, then Lucas's records would only be similar in some aspects, but the main environment and background would be different.
Angor still couldn't tell whether Lucas' log was real or not. At most, he could only say that there was a part of it that was true.
He couldn't tell if Lucas was telling the truth or not, but he was getting more and more curious about this man.
When he arrived at Ferran Land, he decided to find out more about Lucas' past. He might even be able to find out the whereabouts of the ship that had mysteriously disappeared.
After putting away Lucas' log, Angor went to the balcony and looked at the Specter Sea.
Island Spirits? Undead?
Angor didn't think too much about it.
But he could clearly feel how big this world was. There were so many things for people to explore and study. It was no wonder that wizards would always hide in one place for decades.
Angor wanted to explore this wonderful world as well.
He leaned against the railing for a while and was about to go back to his room when he suddenly stopped.
He looked up and saw something in the sky.
There was nothing there but a thick layer of clouds.
"Huh? Someone's looking at me. Am I hallucinating?"
