Chapter 1527: The Boundless Arena
Hearing Houston's name, Angel paused.
He was not unfamiliar with Houston.
Houston was an employee of Barbie Restaurant, also known as the Eyeless Man.
After Graya's accident, the employees of Barbie Restaurant were forced to disperse. Because all the employees of the restaurant were gourmet wizards, some employees were captured and used as private chefs, and some were even auctioned as slaves.
Houston was one of them.
After he was captured, he was auctioned at the Twilight Auction.
The reason why Angel made a big fuss at the Twilight Auction was because Toby went crazy when he saw Houston being auctioned in a cage, and Angel made a fuss for Toby, and the subsequent incident of Night Demon City almost sinking.
Unfortunately, Houston was still not rescued.
Houston was finally photographed by Lydia, the "Red Lotus of Fire".
"I made an agreement with Lydia before, and I can buy Houston back from her." Angle paused: "I haven't forgotten this. When this matter is over, I will settle this original agreement."
Greya also knew about this, and she nodded to Angel: "Thank you, I will prepare the magic crystal she wants."
Greya originally planned to rescue Houston herself, but because she currently has no physical body and the situation is too bad, it is not easy to rescue Houston. She thought of a deal, so she asked Felicia to contact Lydia. Unfortunately, just two days ago, Felicia sent a message that Lydia did not agree to trade with her.
So, the matter can only go back to Angel again, because it was Lydia who talked about the deal with Angel.
Greya mentioned this matter implicitly.
Greya felt a little embarrassed, after all, this was her employee, but she had to trouble Angel.
Angel didn't care much, since he started the deal at that time, so he ended it, which was also a beginning and an end. Besides, the eyeless man is like a relative to Toby.
"Speaking of Houston, it reminds me of Neo, the 'greasy bird', and Iyu, the 'soup weasel', who I saw in Barbie Restaurant before. How are they doing now? And when are you going to reopen Barbie Restaurant?" Angel asked while adjusting his bow tie in front of the water mirror.
"Neo and Iyu have returned to the candy house. As for the other employees, those who can be found have either returned, or have been captured like Houston, or... have died." Greya's eyes flashed dimly: "Even if Barbie Restaurant is to be reopened, it may have to wait until the body is found."
Greya herself has no idea whether she can successfully find the body in the nightmare world surrounded by legendary monsters.
Greya: "Let's not talk about me, let's talk about you."
Angel glanced back at Greya: "Me? What's there to talk about?"
"I heard from Master Midora that you have already decided on a nickname?" Greya asked curiously.
Two days ago, Dean Sheri and Master Midora came to the manor. Dean Sheri hoped that Angel would increase the number of people attending the class, but in the end, Angel refused.
Master Midora came over, but it had nothing to do with the class, but talked to Angel about the content of his class preparation.
When Midora left, Greya talked to him alone for a while because she needed potions to assist the soul and body.
Greya and Midora talked about more than just potions, and later they talked about some other things, including Angel's special judgeship.
Midora revealed a piece of news that Angel seemed to have found Antonio and registered a new nickname on the access card of the R&D Institute.
Therefore, Greya was a little curious.
Angel hesitated for a moment and nodded: "I guess so."
Although nicknames are not necessary for wizards. However, Angel's popularity in the Sky Mechanical City lasted for a long time, and strange nicknames such as "Music Box Warlock" could be heard everywhere.
In particular, when Angel went to Fangling Pavilion last time, he heard Shan and his brother Leon talking about the deeds of the "Milk Baron". Although he didn't mention the name, Leon knew Angel's preferences too well and often looked at him with strange eyes.
In order to prevent this embarrassing situation, Angel decided to take this opportunity to set a new nickname.
"So, what is the nickname?" Greya asked curiously.
Angel didn't answer, but waved his hand to dissipate the water mirror and prepared to turn around and go out.
Greya followed and looked at Angel suspiciously: "I heard from your mentor that your naming aesthetics is very poor. Are you embarrassed to say it?"
Angel paused: "I think my nickname should be better than King Kong Barbie."
When Greya narrowed her eyes and showed a dangerous look, Angel said again: "Anyway, when I go to be a special judge, it will be on the light screen. You will know then."
Angel left the manor alone and prepared to go to the Infinite Battle Tower.
Before heading to the Infinite Battle Tower, Angel first opened a door that led to the Mangshi Magic Material Street.
Because the Rising Star Tournament had officially started, Mangshi Magic Material Street was very deserted, with only a few people coming and going. Angel opened the Illusionary Door in the middle of the street without being noticed, and even the Magic Eyes that usually stood guard over the street were now few in number.
He walked into the alchemy house of Grandma Nail.
The alchemy house was still empty. A few days ago, because Angel had started a class, everyone went to grab the class, resulting in no one in the Nail Alchemy House. As for today, the Rising Star Tournament started, and everyone flocked to the Infinite Battle Tower, but there was still no one here.
Although there was no one on the first floor, a faint scent of tea wafted from the second floor.
When Angel arrived at the second floor hall, a gentle voice came into his ears: "Wizard Pat, you are here."
Angel looked in the direction of the voice and saw the water pattern witch Farina who was drinking tea and chatting with the nail lady at the table.
"I have dealt with some things and kept you waiting for a long time." Angel apologized.
Because Farina was also one of the judges of the preliminary round this time, they had agreed to meet here and go to the Infinite Battle Tower together.
"There is still an hour before the official start of the competition, it is not too late now." Farina suddenly paused, her eyes noticed Angel's dress, and a glimmer flashed in her eyes.
"I'm a little suspicious now. Does the Magic Island recruit people based on appearance? I think Wizard Pat will probably charm many girls with love today."
Angel smiled politely: "If we use appearance as the standard for Magic Island to recruit people, I think if Ms. Falina is in Magic Island, her status is definitely higher than mine."
Angel's words were not a compliment. Even though Falina always wore a thin veil, her exposed eyebrows and eyes were already stunning.
Falina covered her mouth and smiled: "You are more talkative than your mentor."
Falina put down the teacup in her hand and stood up: "Since you are here, let's go first."
After saying goodbye to Grandma Nail, Angel and Falina flew to the Infinite Battle Tower together. They are both members of the Research and Development Institute and have their own privileges, so even if the magic eyes in the sky see it, they will turn a blind eye.
Soon, they saw the tower that soared into the clouds and could not be seen at a glance.
The shape of the tower is very special. From a distance, the width of the upper and lower parts is very narrow. On the contrary, the middle, about the 100th floor of the Infinite Battle Tower, is the widest.
Their final landing point is also on this widest floor.
Walking in the clouds, they landed on the landing platform. As Farina led Angel into the tower, she explained: "This floor is also called the heart of the Infinite Battle Tower. The largest arena in the entire Infinite Battle Tower, the Infinite Arena, is here."
The so-called Infinite Arena is actually a bit like a Rubik's Cube space. The arena itself is a large open space. During each competition, the arena will change the terrain according to certain preconditions. Just like a Rubik's Cube, as long as you flip it, it will be another world.
Whether it is a volcanic lava land, a dense jungle, a deep ocean trench, a barren dead land, or even a pure vacuum arena, the Rubik's Cube space of the Infinite Arena has it all.
Because the repair and opening of the Infinite Arena is very expensive, the Infinite Arena is usually not open unless it is a formal battle between wizards.
But this time, for the Rising Stars Competition, this exception was made. There will be several games held in the Infinite Arena. The preliminary and final rounds will definitely be held here. If there is a very important duel in the middle, it will also be arranged in the Infinite Arena depending on the situation.
