Chapter 2423 Destination and Target

After a while, the Nightmare Hand turned into a bubble of light and shadow and disappeared.

"Is he okay?" Dangros leaned out and asked in a low voice.

"He's not in good physical condition, but fortunately, I didn't sense any abnormality in his body."

In other words, the mist shadow is either hidden very secretly, so secret that Angel can't find it; or it has left his body.

Angel personally tends to be the latter.

Because the consciousness of the mist shadow will not be affected by the senses of the possessed object.

The senses here include pain perception and self-protection of the brain. In other words, Reynolds's body fell into a coma due to the self-protection of the senses, and the mist shadow could also control him and move freely.

At this time, Reynolds's body had obviously lost its ability to move and judge, and there was no independent consciousness to manipulate it. From this, it can be basically seen that the mist shadow should have left Reynolds' body.

As for why it left?

The answer is not complicated. Even if the mist shadow is not affected by the object of possession and does not care whether he is injured or not, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Reynolds' serial injuries are very strange.

Continuous coincidences have caused a series of bad luck, which is obviously unusual. If the mist shadow does not believe in the so-called "coincidence", what will it think of?

There is a certain [5200xyz] force interfering with the fortune.

And this force has obviously involved the unspeakable level of fate.

In this case, even Angel will feel a chill in his spine without knowing the truth.

The mist shadow is obviously not a fool, it will also worry.

At this time, the bad luck may only be on Reynolds, but what about the future? Will there be a stronger bad luck that can affect its body?

Moreover, the mist shadow can also see that the bad luck has only appeared since it possessed Reynolds.

There must be something wrong with Reynolds' body.

Think about it, would the body of an ordinary apprentice without any problems be hidden in such a secret room by No. 01?

In this case, the mist shadow can either gamble that the bad luck will not implicate its body and continue to possess Reynolds; or just stay away from Reynolds.

Does Reynolds have any interests in the mist shadow? At present, it seems that there is no.

Therefore, the mist shadow cannot bear such a great psychological pressure and continue to possess Reynolds. The wisest choice is to directly get rid of Reynolds, the hot potato.

There is another basis for Angel to make this judgment.

If the mist shadow wants to affect the material world, it must need a body. When it was on the fifth floor, the mist shadow chose Reynolds' body, which was a last resort, because there was only such a body available there.

But it was different on the first floor. There was a monster garden on the first floor. The fire scale familiar that the mist shadow originally controlled came from the monster garden.

The mist shadow can go to the monster garden and choose a new body.

The most important thing is that this place is very close to the location of the Monster Garden. It can be seen that the original route of the Mist Shadow is to run to the Monster Garden.

It is very likely that the Mist Shadow has now arrived at the Monster Garden and possessed a new body.

This is actually a good thing.

At least, they were worried that Reynolds would be "skull-blasted" by the Mist Shadow before, but this situation no longer exists. And the person who solved this hidden danger is not an outsider, but Reynolds himself. Moreover, if Angel really asked him to solve the "skull-blasting" problem, he might not be able to do it, so Reynolds' body is still powerful.

After sorting out the general situation, Angel prepared to pick up Reynolds' body first, and then see whether to go to the Monster Garden to find the Mist Shadow.

However, before picking up Reynolds' body, he still needs to be treated a little.

The backlash of bad luck also caused great damage to Reynolds himself. If he is not treated, he will die of exhaustion in a short time.

Angel carefully placed Reynolds's broken body on the ground. After a brief inspection, he released two level 2 tricks, namely isolation and vitality stimulation.

These two tricks are actually not conventional healing techniques. The reason for choosing these two tricks is that Reynolds's condition is not suitable for direct wound healing, and there is a lot of energy residual in his body.

After judgment, only isolation can be used first to isolate the residual energy toxins in his body.

As for choosing the trick of vitality stimulation, it is to temporarily delay the exhaustion of his body by consuming the essence of life. However, vitality stimulation has side effects. It will consume life. Although life itself is difficult to quantify as a unit, it is true.

The side effects are indeed great, but it is not taken care of at this time. Consuming life is better than death. Moreover, life is actually the essence of life. The essence of life is not immutable. When the essence of life is sublimated, it will continue to grow. For example, promotion to a formal wizard.

After doing all this, Angel took out a magic leather scroll of "Healing Ice Coffin" and put Reynolds into the ice coffin.

Then, Angel stepped lightly, and his shadow began to surge. After a while, a head slowly floated up from the shadow.

Ermi.

Angel planned to put Reynolds with Ermi first. After all, there was still a chance that the mist shadow had not left Reynolds. To be on the safe side, the bracelet must not be left, but Ermi was the best choice.

Ermi nodded, without saying anything, and spread a layer of surging shadows on the ground, and began to devour the ice coffin on the ground.

Just as the ice coffin was about to sink into the shadow, Dangros suddenly muttered: "Why is Reynolds' cheek so bulging? Just like my little brother, the traveling frog."

Dangros' words made Angel subconsciously focus on Reynolds' face.

He didn't look at Reynolds' face much before, mainly because... it was too horrible.

The former handsomeness was completely gone, with large pieces of charcoal-like skin, flesh and blood intertwined with yellow-green mucus, which was really unsightly.

Now, it was the first time that he looked at Reynolds' face seriously.

This time, Angel found something strange.

"Ermi, wait a minute." Angel stopped Ermi from swallowing, walked to the ice coffin, opened the coffin lid, and reached out to gently press Reynolds' bulging cheek.

The skin was very brittle and fell off directly. But under the skin, Angel felt a hard feedback.

This was not like the feel of fascia.

Angel hesitated for a moment and pried open Reynolds' mouth.

With a light twist of his fingers, an object was taken out of his mouth.

"It's OK." Angel said to Ermi after closing the coffin lid, and Ermi immediately rolled up the shadow and swallowed the transparent ice coffin.

After the rolling shadow returned to normal, Angel took the object taken out of Reynolds' mouth.

This was a small transparent bottle.

The bottle was not big and could be held in the palm of your hand. There was some yellowish cold liquid in it, and in the center of the liquid, a purple-black crystal was soaked.

"Why does this thing look familiar?" Dangros was also looking at the thing in the bottle. The crystal inside gave him a strong sense of déjà vu, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

"Hmph, chirp chirp." Toby called a few times, looking at Dangros with a sidelong look. Even if Dangros didn't understand Toby's bird language, he could see that Toby seemed to despise him.

"Toby is right." Under Dangros's somewhat confused and aggrieved expression, Angel said: "The thing inside should be Xiz's."

They had met Xiz's cub outside before, and it had a lot of purple crystals on its body. Although the crystals in the bottle are a little darker in color, the overall appearance is still the same.

So, Angel judged that this should be something from Xiz.

However, what Angel cared about most was not this purple-black crystal, but this bottle and the cold liquid inside.

This kind of cold liquid is not the first time he has seen it. All the containers for loading organs in the exhibition room are equipped with exactly the same cold liquid.

This made Angell a little suspicious. Could this also be a transplantable organ?

But if it is an organ...hasn't the Xiz larva been caught yet? How was it obtained?

You know, if you want to remove an organ with extraordinary properties, it is not as simple as just breaking the crystal on it. This requires special magic. Blood wizards or biological alchemists have similar magic.

So, if it is a transplantable organ, this is a bit strange.

Or, are there actually two Xiz larvae? One has been captured?

It should be impossible.

Angell couldn't figure it out for a while, so he could only put it aside temporarily, and his eyes shifted from the cold liquid inside to the bottle outside.

Although this bottle was the first time Angell saw it, he had seen the impression of this bottle pressed on the velvet cloth in the hidden room of No. 01 not long ago.

Angell waved his hand casually, and a box created by magic appeared in front of him.

This box was exactly the hidden box he had discovered before. It was divided into two parts, each containing something. But when Angell found it, the box was empty.

Angell compared the bottle with the indentation of the velvet cloth in the illusion box.

Sure enough, it matched one of the indentations.

This bottle should be one of the two missing bottles in Room 01.

It was probably stolen by Misty Shadow. Because it cannot directly affect the material world, it can only be placed on Reynolds.

As for why it was placed in Reynolds' mouth instead of on his body... Angell guessed that it might be that Misty Shadow was worried about being implicated by bad luck, and it would soon go bad if placed on his body, so it would be safer in his mouth.

If this is true, Misty Shadow obviously values ​​the things in this bottle.

"Could it be that Misty Shadow's goal to go to the fifth floor is actually this bottle? Then why did it set fire to the fifth floor before?"

Angell didn't quite understand Misty Shadow's operation, but looking at the bottle in his hand, another idea came to his mind.

Since Misty Shadow values ​​this bottle so much, if it possesses a new creature in the Monster Garden, will it come back to take this bottle away?

Before, Angel was thinking about whether to go to the Monster Park to look for traces of the fog shadow. Now it seems that maybe he doesn't need to take the initiative to look for it. He can just wait here?
