Angor could sense the anger in Sunders' tone.
The Abyss Plane was already showing signs of danger, and Angor chose to come to the frontline at a time like this?!
Not long ago, Sumesh was sent away. Now, another troublemaker showed up before he could do anything about it. Sumesh could at least protect himself in the Abyss Plane. Angor, on the other hand, was simply asking for death.
Angor quickly changed the topic. "I came to the Abyss Plane to talk to you, professor. Ahem. Let's talk about that later. Actually, something happened on our side."
"Something happened? What happened? "Sunders was already at Silent Coast, but he was still some distance away from Angor's position.
"I don't know. I'll ask Mister Brofen to tell you."
Brofen? Sunders was surprised. Was he talking about the "Follower of Black Sugar" who wanted to resurrect Evil God? But why was Angor working with such a dangerous person?
Sunders heard an unfamiliar male voice coming from the other end of the line.
"Mister Phantom, I'm Brofen, an alchemist from Moonfrost Union." Brofen briefly introduced himself and explained the situation in the graveyard when Sunders' voice turned cold.
Sunders remained silent for a while. "You said there's a place of rest inside?"
"Yes, a Grave Knight told me so." Brofen continued, "Sennefer wants Mister Phantom to find a stable space outside. Then we can build a bridge from the inside to the outside."
"What about the shops in the Land of Repose?" Sunders cut him off.
"It's a small wooden house with lights on. There's no door, but there's a door. There's a word written in Abyss Language on the cloth above the door. " Brofen's brows furrowed as he described the bar. "Mister Phantom, the Space Warp …"
"What's the name of the owner of the bar?" Again, Sunders interrupted him.
Angor noticed that Brofen was getting impatient, so he quickly asked, "Professor, you're talking about the woman in the bar? She didn't tell us her name, but the knight who's fighting Sennefer said she hates humans. "
Sanders fell into silence again.
"Professor, what do you think of Lady Sennefer's suggestion?" Brofen frowned.
"Don't worry about that. Take care of yourself. I'll be right there." With that, Sunders hung up.
The red light on the blood essence gradually dissipated.
Brofen rubbed his temples. "We haven't even come up with a countermeasure, and it's already over?"
Angor also felt helpless.
Madeleine and Vifet were now back on Dokibell's back. At the moment, Sennefer and the knights were engaged in a fierce battle. The other knights and skeletons were merely watching from the sidelines. If they stayed in the center of the battle, they would only be a hindrance to Sennefer.
They also noticed that Angor had already contacted Sunders, which was why they returned to ask about it.
"What's wrong?" Madelyne looked at Brofen in confusion. "Did something happen to Mister Phantom?"
"Nothing happened. It's just …" Brofen shook his head and explained his conversation with his professor.
Madeleine was also puzzled. According to what she heard, Sunders wasn't a wizard who fought like this.
At this time, Viffet said, "His Excellency Phantom Fiend asked about the woman in the Resting Ground and the bar. I guess he knows something?"
Vifet's words made everyone ponder.
Angor had the same suspicion before. When they were not sure whether the woman was the owner of the bar, the professor already pointed it out. Something was not right.
Maybe he knew about this place?
But they never heard of the "Land of Repose" before.
While they were still wondering, the battle was still going on. After activating her bloodline form, Sennefer's power skyrocketed again.
She was cursed to be as strong as a level-1 truth-finder wizard at best. However, even truth-finders were weaker than other truth-finders. Bloodline wizards were the strongest among their peers.
After activating her bloodline form, Sennefer's power was now comparable to a level-2 truth-finder.
Sennefer's knight was a level-2 truth-finder, but they seemed to be on par with each other.
However, as time went by, Sennefer began to show signs of fatigue.
While in her bloodline form, she consumed twice as much energy as before, which she couldn't replenish in the Abyss Plane. The longsword knight, on the other hand, remained at the same level all the time. Since he wasn't affected by the Abyss Plane's shackles, he had a better chance of winning.
A while later, Sennefer's body was covered in blood. She was running out of energy.
Sennefer looked back at Dokibell and asked Brofen with a questioning look, "How's Sunders doing?"
Brofen didn't know how to answer. In the end, he could only smile bitterly.
Sennefer didn't know what Brofen meant, but she was already thinking of a plan to retreat.
"I knew it's stupid to put all my hope on someone else."
Sennefer no longer wanted to fight the knight head-on. Instead, she began to circle around the area while secretly telling Brofen to activate a plane passageway.
Brofen sighed. He thought he had a chance to escape, but now, it seemed he had lost hope.
Brofen had no choice but to follow Sennefer's instructions.
When Brofen was about to cast another spell, he received another message from Sennefer.
"Release … Krulleye?!" Brofen shook his head. "No! It'll cause a lot of trouble!"
Sennefer sneered. "I'm not the kind of person who likes to be taken advantage of. Release it. If we can get out of here alive, I'll ask Mister Monkey to give you a living tentacle of an ancient evil god."
Brofen hesitated.
"If we die here, Krulleye will disappear along with the alchemy workshop. It's better to release it now. "
Brofen finally made up his mind.
He took a deep breath and summoned a door in front of him.
However, before he could step through the door, a beam of light pierced through the darkness and illuminated the quiet graveyard.
Brofen stopped in his tracks and looked up at the source of the light.
A crack appeared in the sky, and through the crack, one could vaguely see the hazy sky outside.
While everyone was wondering where the crack came from, a figure leaped into the graveyard.
The figure landed gracefully on top of a tombstone.
"The long-awaited night is indeed a resting place for the dead." A deep and hoarse voice reached everyone's ears.
Sennefer's pupils shrank when she saw who it was.
He was wearing a black gentleman's suit with a pure white lining and a pair of exquisite boots. His signature cane and blood-red cloak were also visible.
Even though half of his face was deliberately covered by the brim of the hat, his attire alone was enough to reveal the identity of the visitor.
The famous God of War in the southern wizarding region.
"Phantom Master" Sunders.
"He could've been waiting for us outside. Why did he come in here?" Brofen shook his head and sighed.
Angor, who was standing beside Brofen, was also confused. But when he saw the familiar face, he relaxed a little.
"What's going on? Why are you here?" Sennefer looked up and frowned. "Didn't Angor tell you what's going on here?"
Sunders took off his hat, revealing his gray-green short curly hair and his handsome, mature face.
Instead of answering Sennefer's question, he glanced at the Frost Church on the back of the giant white bear. Angor was standing at the entrance of the church.
Sunders sighed in his mind and looked at Sennefer again. "Why am I here?"
Sunders stepped down from the tombstone and walked to the center of the graveyard. "How could I miss this chance?"
"The legendary resting place?" Everyone, including Sennefer, was puzzled.
Sennefer was about to ask when Sunders arrived at the center of the graveyard. He looked at the tavern not far away, which was still lit up with a strange light.
He took another step forward and was stopped by a broken greatsword.
It was none other than the knight with the greatsword who fought Sennefer earlier.
A low voice came from under the knight's helmet, "It is the boss's wish to exterminate the humans here. Since there's one more, you shall join the rest of the adventurers in eternal rest. "
A powerful force, accompanied by a cold light, burst forth from the giant sword.
"Watch out!" Sennefer couldn't help but exclaim. After the previous battle, she knew that even though the sword was broken, it was still as powerful as a top-tier alchemy weapon. Combined with the knight's own strength, it could even tear space apart.
Sunders looked at the greatsword in front of him and used his black cane to push it away.
The giant sword was casually tossed to the side.
That enormous power was bound to the tip of the cane. With a light tap on the ground, the power was transmitted through the earth. Instead, the skeletal army was dragged into the underground fissure.
Dust flew everywhere. One hit was all it took.
"I heard the resting place has its own rules. The resurrected Witch will never refuse any customers." Sunders walked to the entrance of the tavern. "Am I right?"
"Balalaika."
