Two hours later, when most people were still searching for clues in the Mysterious Dimension, Flunza transformed into his water elemental form and floated in the air.
Beside him was Sliv, who was also floating in the air.
Both of them looked down at the island that was almost completely submerged in water without saying a word. After a while, Sliv finally spoke, "Mister Sea God, no one has found the item yet."
Sliv's expression turned ugly. Even his habit of speaking was forcibly changed at this moment.
Flunza spoke in a low voice, "That lucky rat must have taken it away."
Sliv nodded with a gloomy look. He had already reported this to Song of the Deep, and the core faction was already mocking him. Even Lord Donsay, who was guarding the outer realms, had labeled him as an incompetent person.
"So what should we do now? I've already told Tuwalu about the situation, but he told me that it's not easy to track down a random target in such a large area. "
Flunza hesitated for a moment. "Then we'll look for clues and narrow down the search area."
Flunza began to share his opinion about the "rat".
"It only took him a few minutes to destroy the magic array after he left it. He even destroyed the teleportation array on both sides. That means he's an expert in Runecraft. He's probably a Rune Warlock or an alchemist who knows how to enchant spells. "
Flunza continued, "He didn't try to fight the Leviathan head-on. Instead, he tried to escape. He's no stronger than a truth-finder, a level-1 wizard, or below. "
"Below level-1? Mister Sea God, you're saying he's an apprentice? " Sliv was surprised. If he was really an apprentice, then he must be really bold. He fooled so many wizards, including one of the most powerful wizards in the southern wizarding region.
"Although the probability is very low, less than 10%, it is still possible."
Sliv immediately thought of someone who was so good at Rune Study. Only Mister Phantom's student could do that. But Jebra didn't seem to notice anything strange about Angor's condition.
Flunza continued while Sliv pondered, "He must have a huge network of information to be able to find the passage and the Mystery item in such a short time. Maybe there's a huge information network behind him, and there must be a lot of Prophets in that network."
Sliv quickly dismissed Angor's suspicion. He was sure that Angor was alone at the moment. Two days ago, he triggered an alchemy anomaly in Lost Paradise City. It was impossible for Angor to receive such news in such a short time.
"Hey, Sliv. You're suspecting someone." Flunza looked at Sliv.
Sliv paused for a second. "It's not that. It's just that when I heard it might be an apprentice, I remembered an alchemist who's been causing a ruckus in the inland recently …"
Before Sliv could finish, Flunza already knew who Sliv was talking about. He also heard about Jebra's information.
"Now that you mention it, Angor's words do sound suspicious. But I don't think it's him. Sunders isn't in the southern wizarding region, and he wouldn't have arranged such a job for his student before he left. And Angor himself doesn't have such a complete set of information. " Flensa paused. "The rat who stole the fruit left right before we came in. It can't be a coincidence. There must be a plan. Angor doesn't know who it is."
Flunza didn't sound too confident. "But my professor once told me to trust my instincts. The first person you think of is Angor. Maybe he's the culprit. Send a message to Jebra and tell him to keep an eye on Angor. "
Sliv cast a meaningful glance at Flunza and nodded to do as he was told. He knew what Flunza meant. Flunza had already removed Angor's suspicion from his mind. He only mentioned Angor because he wanted to give Jebra a task so that he wouldn't return to Song of the Deep for the time being.
After all, Jebra was just as involved as Flunza in this incident. Even if Angor was a student of the God of Sea, he wouldn't be able to get away easily. It was better to send Jebra away in the name of a mission.
A moment later, Sliv received a message from Tuwalu. When he read the message, his pupils shrank.
On the other side, Summer Dew, who was sitting on the basket, also received Ivan's message from Madam Pei.
Lady Payne's expression was a little uneasy. "Ivan sent a message. He used Libra as the starting point and tried to pinpoint the location of the mysterious item. The final answer was … he couldn't pinpoint it."
Summer Dew's expression froze. Locating an item's general direction was one of the most vague ways to locate it. Usually, it wouldn't be wrong. But what did that mean? It meant that the item had blocked the prying eyes of a Prophet.
There weren't many things that could block the prying eyes of a Prophet, and Ivan was one of the eighteen observers of Starliege Temple. Yet he still couldn't find the item's location.
Furthermore, from this, one could deduce another piece of information.
"This must be a premeditated operation. He, or they, came prepared." Both Summer Dew and Flunza came to the same conclusion at the same time.
Flunza's expression turned gloomier after hearing Sliv's message. It was fine if they came prepared, but he just hoped that it wasn't an organization. Flunza was determined to get his hands on that item as long as he had the chance, even if it was backed by a large sorcerer organization. That item was the only thing that could save Song of the Deep from its current predicament of being trapped by otherworldly spies.
…
About half a day ago, when Angor escaped from the Mysterious Space, the first thing he did was to vomit blood from his chest.
When he was on the island, he didn't dare to vomit blood because he didn't want to leave his password. Only when he returned to the bottom of the well in Shelley Garden did he spit out the breath in his chest and a large pool of blood.
The Leviathan was almost a truth-finder monster. Even powerful wizards like Flunza and Sunders couldn't break its defense. Angor felt more pain than being stabbed by a giant monster's aura alone.
Despite his severe injuries, Angor ignored the pain in his body. Instead, he forced himself to walk to the teleportation array on the wall.
He had to destroy the teleportation array as soon as possible. Otherwise, once someone discovered the teleportation array at the bottom of the cliff, his identity would be exposed.
Luckily, he already figured out how to destroy the runes when he was trying to break the magic array at the bottom of the well. With the tools and materials he brought with him, he was able to destroy the magic array in no time.
In less than five minutes, Angor finally managed to reverse the runes on the magic array. Once the teleportation array on the island was activated, the two-way magic array would be destroyed as well.
As soon as he removed the spell array, he fainted on the ground.
Less than a minute after he fainted, the magic array on the wall behind him was already damaged. Someone must have found the teleportation array on the other side of the island. If Angor was any slower, he would have been dead by now.
When he woke up, he was still at the bottom of the well.
He felt a warm touch on the side of his face. He opened his eyes and saw Toby curled up and sleeping on the side of his neck.
Angor was surprised to see that his injuries were much better than before. Apart from his internal injuries, which still needed a long time to heal, his external injuries were mostly healed. Even his spirit injuries were mostly healed.
Using the fluorescent lamp on the wall, Angor saw several empty potion bottles around him. He could also taste the potion in his mouth.
He didn't know what kind of potion they were. Greya must have prepared them for Toby, and Toby gave them to him while he was unconscious.
Angor's eyes were filled with gratitude.
Toby was injured by the Leviathan's aura as well. Angor felt very grateful to Toby for taking care of Toby's injuries when Toby could barely take care of himself.
Angor considered himself lucky to have Toby's company in this harsh wizarding world.
He carefully held Toby in his hand and made sure the bird was also recovering. After that, he put Toby back into his bracelet and asked the Moonlily Fairy to take care of it.
Finally, Angor took out his hologram tablet to check the time.
He stayed on the island for nearly six days, which meant it had been a week since he entered the island. In other words, he had been unconscious for less than a day after returning to the bottom of the well in Shelley Garden.
After one day, Zhang Tie wondered what the situation on the island was like. He wondered if those who came in later had discovered the teleportation array under the cliff …
Angor ejected his soul and looked at the wall.
His expression froze for a second.
He could no longer see any runes on the wall. This meant that someone had tried to activate the teleportation array and caused it to reverse.
Angor felt lucky when he returned to his body, but he also felt worried.
It seemed that someone was really looking for him.
Angor carefully recalled his experience on the island and made sure he didn't leave any obvious marks on the island. He sighed in relief.
He didn't discover the secret of the island anyway. Summerdew Ridge and Song of the Deep shouldn't be too concerned about him.
As long as he kept a low profile and lowered his presence, this should be over soon.
With that in mind, Angor felt less worried.
