In the wizarding world, the more you knew, the more dangerous you would be.
Angor pretended that he didn't see anything. It was none of his business whether they were dating or not.
However, Eureka wasn't going to ignore Angor. She glanced at Thewis and asked, "Why did you come back with Angor?"
"We met on the way, so we came back together." Thewis gave Eureka a gentle smile.
Angor was surprised by Thewis' gentle smile. He heard that Thewis was a cold-blooded man who didn't like to smile. Angor didn't expect to see such an expression on Eureka's face.
Compared to Angor, Eureka was even more surprised.
Earlier, she talked to Thewis' puppet clone about Angor, and the clone suggested that Thewis should wait for Thewis to come back so that they could find out Angor's secrets.
Eureka assumed that Thewis would do something to Angor after he returned.
She even planned to tell Thewis not to do anything to Angor before he fused with his puppet clone. After all, Phantom Master was backing Angor up.
He didn't expect Thewis to be having a good conversation with Angor even though he hadn't fused with the puppet's will yet. However, with Thewis' personality, there was no way he would treat an Apprentice Adept like this.
Did Thewis know Angor?
That didn't sound right.
The puppet avatar she had left behind was left behind by Thewis when he left the Marginalized Island. It had basically inherited Thewis' memories and experience. Thewis' puppet clone didn't know Angor, which meant Thewis didn't know Angor either.
Did Thewis become friends with Angor while he was away?
But this was strange. Why would Thewis be so familiar with an apprentice adept?
"You know Angor, right?" Eureka decided to ask Thewis directly. "You know Angor, don't you?"
"There are only a few wizards in the southern wizarding region who don't know Angor." Thewis chuckled. "After all, he has a mysterious future ahead of him."
"???"
Mysterious future ahead of him? What do you mean? Eureka looked at Angor and Thewis with a puzzled look.
Before Thewis could explain further, someone called out to them from below. He stuck his head out and saw Olga shouting his name at the Gondola in the sky.
He lowered the Gondola to the ground.
Olga immediately lifted her skirt and ran over with an anxious look on her face.
Olga noticed that Eureka and Thewis were with her when she arrived at the edge of the Gondola.
Although Olga had seen these two Magi before, she had never come into close contact with them. Hence, when she saw them, she was so scared that she immediately knelt on the ground.
"Oli, what happened?" Angor frowned. "I saw all the knights in the manor leaving Grue Town, including Head Maid Mana. What's going on?"
"It's the Lord Viscount." Olga's expression was one of panic. "The Lord Viscount is gone!"
Angor's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. He quickly asked for the reason.
According to Olga, Lyon usually went to the waterfall to cultivate. As for what he cultivated, no one knew. However, Lyon would always go there every day and come back before lunchtime.
But today, after dinner time, Leon still hadn't come back.
Normally, it wouldn't be a big deal if he came back sooner or later. However, when Leon's servant went to the waterfall to look for him, he found Lyon's armor, weapons, and undergarments lying around the waterfall. But Lyon was nowhere to be found.
Since the waterfall was huge and filled with steam, Leon's servant went around the waterfall on the east bank and didn't find Lyon anywhere, so he quickly came back and told Head Maid Mana about it.
That was why a group of knights went out to search for him.
"The waterfall? Why is my brother training there? "Angor still remembered how he felt about the waterfall when he was young. The waterfall wasn't a big deal to him now, but it was still a dangerous place for mortals.
When Jon was still in good health, he once said that the waterfall at the center of the waterfall was almost as big as the tallest waterfall in his hometown.
Also, the sound of the waterfall was so loud that it made his eardrums tremble.
Why would Lyon go to the waterfall if he wanted to train?
"Lyon is training his willpower. To put it simply, extreme environments will stimulate his body and temper his willpower, which will eventually lead to a breakthrough in his spirit power. You can't stop training like this before you truly become a supernatural. Otherwise, your spirit power will deteriorate. " It was Thewis who spoke. "But Lyon chose to train his body under the waterfall himself."
He couldn't stop training his body under the waterfall?! Angor's expression turned gloomy.
He only knew that Lyon's spirit power had reached 10. He didn't know there was such an inside story. If he knew this, he would have just given Lyon the Potion of Austere Night instead of going through this torment.
But it was pointless to think about it now. He had to make sure his brother was safe.
Angor prepared to go to the waterfall, but Thewis stopped him. "He's my student, after all. Let me do it."
As soon as Thewis said that, a massive wave of mind power spread out from him and probed in the direction of the Kooky Waterfall.
They were still several dozen kilometers away from the waterfall, so Thewis used his spirit power to sense the area.
A moment later, Thewis withdrew his spirit power and frowned. "I didn't find Lyon. Let's go check."
Thewis didn't use his psychic power to investigate the waterfall this time. Instead, he used his spell, Break Illusion, to track down all traces that had been concealed.
A moment later, Thewis flew to the bottom of a waterfall and looked at a wet rock. "There's a blood reaction here."
Thewis looked up and quickly figured out what happened.
"Lyon was training his body here. Maybe he got distracted or something happened, so he couldn't hold on and was sent flying by the waterfall." Thewis pointed at the rock that had a blood reaction. "He was scratched here when he fell, so he probably fell into the river."
"About seven hours ago. Let's just follow the river and we'll find him." Thewis paused. "Or his body."
Wizards never considered the worst possible outcome, so he wasn't surprised by Thewis' suggestion.
Angor didn't care what the final result would be. He quickly followed the river and looked for Lyon.
He sent out all of his scouting puppets and began searching the area himself.
Along the way, he saw countless sharp rocks stuck in the water, which made him feel more and more nervous.
He flew for two hours without finding anything. The scouting puppets didn't give him any good news either, which made him even more anxious.
At the same time, he felt a sense of guilt and self-blame.
It had been half a year since he returned to Padt Manor. During this time, he only cared about Jon and didn't pay much attention to his brother. He didn't even realize how dangerous Lyon's training was until today.
He always thought that he still had a long way to go, but he never considered the possibility of a disaster.
With his negative emotions, he kept searching for a glimmer of hope on the surface of the dark river.
Perhaps his prayers were answered, because one of the scouting puppets finally brought him some good news before the moon was high in the sky.
They found Lyon's body in a forbidden swamp at the bottom of the river.
From the image provided by the scouting puppet, Angor saw Lyon's naked body being tied up by several sharp green thorns and hanging on a large green cocoon.
His body was covered in bloody wounds, which made him look extremely miserable.
The only good news was that Angor could feel Lyon's chest moving up and down, which meant he wasn't dead yet.
Angor determined Lyon's location and activated the sequence of gravity without hesitation. He arrived at the swamp in the blink of an eye.
As soon as he arrived, he immediately smelled something rotten in the air.
He looked around and saw that apart from Lyon, there were also many dead beasts and giant skeletons.
This place was at least 200 meters away from the river, which meant Lyon couldn't have come here on his own. Some kind of creature must have brought Lyon here, or maybe it was using Lyon as food.
Angor didn't sense any other life forms nearby. He quickly approached Lyon.
Lyon's body was covered in thorns, which made Angor's heart skip a beat. Lyon's injuries were more serious than they looked. Most of the bones in his body were broken and shattered. Many of them even hurt his internal organs.
Strangely, Lyon didn't seem to be affected at all. He even had a faint smile on his face.
Angor tried to wake Lyon up, but he couldn't. Angor decided to cut off the thorns and try to stop Lyon's injuries first.
But before he could do that, he heard Thewis' voice from behind.
"If you cut off the Bewildering Vine on his body now, it's very likely that the Tide Spider Poison in his body will immediately erupt. If that happens, it'll be very difficult to save him. "
Angor turned around and saw Thewis and Eureka showing up in the swamp. While Thewis was talking to Angor, Eureka was looking at Lyon's green cocoon with a disdainful look.
Angor didn't care how they found this place. Instead, he began to think.
Tide Spider Venom?
Angor didn't know much about poisons, but Thewis' words reminded him of a certain demonic bug.
Tide Spider Venom!
