"Take this."
Behind Angele was the small wooden house he just built. The woman in black was standing behind Angele and staring at Eye Devil.
"Dandy, what do you think of my improved ice shaping spell?"
Angele stood in the team and waited for a while. He heard some noise that sounded like thunder in the sky. The noise was getting louder and louder.
The red clouds were rolling in the dark sky and everything on the land was dyed red.
"You don't need to know where I came from. What do you think about my request?"
There were four people standing behind the two old presidents. They were the leaders of the organizations under the council of elders. They were the representatives of the Wind Valley, the Wandering Ranch, and the Golden River. Isabelle, the granddaughter of the First Elder, was also one of the new spell casters.
'If I put the five core orbs into the Ritual of Black Death, I'll be able to create the refined true form. However, it'll take me a long time … 'Angele closed the notebook and handed it to the woman in black.
"I'm happy, but it's a pity that a wizard has to spend so many years on a random mission …" Angele chuckled.
* Crack *
The introduction of the book was about how to learn the bloodline ability.
"Here it is." The old man with a long beard put on a pair of glasses and adjusted his long robe. "Urstein, do you want to do it or should I?" he looked at his old friend and questioned in a low voice.
Ice shards automatically fluttered in the air. Not long after, the top of the ice pillar on the surface of the lake formed a smooth circular platform. The platform was big enough for dozens of birds to land on.
The surface of the icicle also formed a clear staircase, extending all the way down to the frozen lake.
They were here to welcome the return of the expedition army. The two presidents of the Eagle College and the War College from the Mermaid's Song were the leaders of the team.
Standing at the very front were two white-haired old men with beards that reached their chests. There were four young black robes standing behind the old man with a calm expression on their faces.
Angele watched the blue souls flying to the black ball around Eye Devil's body quietly. He took out a red leather notebook from the black mirror on the back of his belt. Gently flipping open the notebook, it was filled with semi-finished formulas that he had carefully organized, as well as some conjectures and calculations that could not be tested.
The edge of the lake was surrounded by greyish-white rock slopes, with steep, uneven rocks everywhere. Occasionally, there were clumps of dark green trees.
"Alright, let's head back …" Angele turned around and walked to the wooden house. His figure suddenly turned into a ball of flame and disappeared.
Angele glanced at Isabelle. He met Isabelle once at Shozo's party. Isabelle was the second granddaughter of the First Elder. The people around her were probably of similar status as well. They were all direct descendants of the elders. Moreover, his status was definitely very high.
"Ritual of Black Death …" Angele rubbed the rune circle on the page.
The young woman wore pearl earrings and had a delicate face. She smiled and replied, "About half an hourglass."
"Don't worry. The First Elder and the others are the strongest members of the Elemental Hand. They will definitely arrive at the right time." Another old man said with a smile, "Now that we've reached an agreement with the White City Alliance, we can finally face the coming chaos with peace of mind …"
"How long will it take for you to do it?" The woman in black remained calm. "I've been imprisoned for a long time and I don't really care about the time."
"It should be soon," the old man with a long beard questioned in a light tone. He turned his head and looked at one of the four young women in black robes. "Isabelle, where is your grandpa now?"
* BAM *
The modified Book of Fear was divided into three parts. Prologue, Funeral Oration, and Epilogue.
On top of a mountain between the Molten River and the Tarry River area.
"Did master Masha experience the same thing?" Beren, the head of the Human Resources Department, questioned in a light tone.
The blue lake below suddenly shot out a pillar of water, heading straight for the red dot in the sky.
At the place where Eye Devil was sealed.
There was a black rune circle on the yellow leather page of the notebook. The rune circle had different shapes and sizes. Like an extremely precise round pocket watch, it was filled with densely packed gears and mechanical structures.
"Green, what are you thinking? Why are you unhappy that your mother is back? "The middle-aged man smiled and spoke in a light tone.
Four years later …
A simple airfield was quickly built.
"You're right. I'm the same as master Beren, "a middle-aged woman added. She had a serious expression on her face. The woman had short blonde hair and it was Masha, who was close to Angele. She had been getting closer to Angele ever since the last time they explored the tomb.
For some reason, the woman in black felt a chill down her spine as she looked at Angele's face.
Strangely, the glyphs drawn on the paper were all slowly rotating on their own, faintly emitting creaking sounds of friction.
"That's true. With the Great Elder going to welcome us, there will definitely be no mishaps this time." The two old men began to chat casually with one another.
In the deep blue sky, a faint red dot slowly appeared, slowly flying towards them.
The ball was releasing a strong suction force and was attracting the souls of the blue shadows. The blue soul bodies that filled the sky slowly flew towards the sphere like raindrops.
* CHI * He turned to the second last page of the notebook. Angele had a look of anticipation on his face.
The water column turned into an ice column after it rose into the air. The water on the surface of the lake was frozen as well.
Angele was not qualified to join the greeting team, but he was allowed to join the team just like Isabelle because he had the bloodline of Elder Vivian.
Angele decided to skip the part of the Erin's Funeral Oration.
A large black platform was built on the right side of Eye Devil's body and there was a black vortex floating on the platform.
"I obtained my special ability by chance. You won't have the chance to recreate it." The woman in black shook her head. "That's why I don't even dare to touch the light. My body is covered in this black material."
The funeral oration was about purifying the bloodline power and creating the true form. The true form could be created from the first true form to the second true form. The last part of the funeral oration was about creating special weapons and defensive tools. There were also special secret techniques that could create the second and third life forms using the negative emotions other than fear. The sound of the bell was also included.
"I'll do it." Urstein stepped forward and took out a short black wand from his belt. He held the wand in his hand and pointed at the sky.
"This book can absorb the negative energy around you for me. You won't have nightmares every day. It's a small reward for taking you away from your hometown. " Angele responded calmly. "I'll come back here once in a while to collect the negative energy in the book. You can choose to stay here and the Eye Devils will bring you food. You can also stay near Eye Devil's body. However, you can't leave the plain for a while. I need to finish my task first. "
Urstein glared at Angele, lowered the wand, and looked at the sky.
There were five empty spaces on the rune circle after he modified it. It seemed like they were used to store something special.
"Is that so?" The old man nodded.
Angele listened to the conversation between Masha and Beren with a smile on his face.
The blue oval volcanic lake was like a mirror, reflecting the blue sky.
The woman in black checked the notebook in her hand and remained silent. She knew what Angele was trying to do. The only way to speed up the accumulation of souls was to make more lives die faster.
"This is inevitable. Not to mention the confrontation between the elders, even if it's a rank 3 Magus, which of them wouldn't take years to research? Take me for example. As the director of the Human Resources Department of the Mermaid's Song, I have a lot of resources and wealth. The recent loss in the experiment wasted more than ten years of my research... "The man showed a hint of pain on his face." More than ten years of hard work turned into ashes in an hourglass. Those who don't have enough mental strength will have a mental breakdown. That's why not everyone can become a wizard. "
"The souls in the sky … It's been like this since yesterday afternoon," the woman in black muttered. "Where did you find so many souls?"
Everyone looked at the sky at the same time.
Angele turned his head around and looked at the woman. "Don't worry, we still have time to do the research."
"Yeah, I was working in the North Ice Plain …"
By the edge of the dark red plain, in a small red forest. Angele was wearing a white robe as he looked at the black building that was taking shape in the distance.
It was noon. A group of people was waiting on the slope beside the lake. They were all wearing black robes with red rings on their chests. They were standing among the rocks and looking at the sky.
"What's this?" The woman in black looked confused as she grabbed the notebook.
He had almost given up on the meditation in the Molten Core River. He was focusing on the modified Book of Fear. He would absorb the negative energy and train using the Sound of the Knell according to the modified method in the book.
Ulstein lowered his wand with a satisfied expression on his face. Vivian rubbed his beard and nodded.
"Although it's not as good as mine, it's not bad." Dean Dandy chuckled.
In the main world.
"I'm not sure, it depends on the number of souls …" Angele sighed and looked at Eye Devil. "I won't keep you waiting …" he muttered.
There were four young men standing behind them and there was a group of wizards with silver mermaid emblems on their chests. There were more than ten of them, and in the middle of the group, a pale young man stood quietly at the edge of the group, waiting calmly. A middle-aged man was talking to him in a low voice.
Three days later …
He could hear birds and beasts roaring in the forest.
Angele remained calm, he was absorbing the dark energy released by the woman in black.
