Chapter 997 Frost Moon Secret Edition
The unexpected appearance of the Doom Walker caused a big change in the entire Watch Fortress.
After rushing back to the fortress, Samantha even turned to the Inverted Falls immediately to report what happened here to the Sky Island.
At the same time, Sinafa also sent scouts to track the route of the Doom Walker to prevent other wizards from passing through this route.
In the end, Samantha's guess was correct. The Doom Walker took the route from the Howling Plains to the Silent Coast. However, when it arrived at the Silent Coast, it dived into the Silent Dead Sea and its whereabouts were unknown.
Angel stood on the fourth-floor high platform of Sanders' room and looked out.
The atmosphere of the entire Watch Fortress changed from the previous prosperity to a little depressed. Even the shiny steel buildings before seemed to be a little gray.
All these changes were brought by the Doom Walker.
"What kind of existence is the Doom Walker?" Angel muttered curiously.
Angel was still researching, and only went to the balcony to see the situation after hearing some rumors from the outside world. He just muttered to himself, but he didn't expect someone to really answer him.
"That is a monster that everyone avoids, and its doom can even repel the Abyss Lord."
The familiar voice made Angel turn his head suddenly.
But he saw Sanders' figure suddenly appeared behind him, turning from a blurry image into a real body.
"Teacher, you are back?" Angel said respectfully.
Sanders walked up to the platform, his leather boots left a few shallow footprints on the snow, and then stopped beside Angel, raised his eyebrows and said: "I have heard from Kant that you have been making trouble again these two days?"
"No." Angel blinked, looking innocent.
Sanders didn't ask any more questions, he had already learned the details from Kant, about the queen insect. For Kant, this matter stimulated him, but from Sanders' evaluation, compared with what Angel said before, it was nothing.
It's just a good opportunity.
"I remember that Nice once broke into the ruins of the research institute of the Heart of the Swarm. I will go there to ask for you after we return to the Savage Cave." Sanders was also happy to see that Angel could cultivate a deformed soft worm. After all, transformation is something that wizards must learn.
Angel thanked him happily. At present, he was just following Kant's advice. If there were more detailed records, the chance of cultivating a deformed soft worm would also increase.
"Don't thank me too early. Nice may not really know anything." Sanders paused and changed the subject: "Have you completed the task I assigned to you before I left?"
Angel's face flashed with embarrassment. He had been tinkering with the invasion of dreamweaver ants these two days and had not made an alchemical illusion at all.
"I was going to start refining it today, but I didn't expect the instructor to come back so early."
"Since you haven't refined it yet, just leave it alone. It won't be long before Samantha comes back from Sky Island, and the next situation of the Watch Fortress should be caught up." Sanders looked at the snow-covered Critical Forest in the distance: "After the news comes, I should have time to take you back to the wizarding world."
"Can we go back?"
Sanders nodded: "The appearance of the Doom Patrol here means that the descendants of the demon god will not take the passage in the Critical Forest, and the role of the Watch Fortress will not be so great. There will definitely be a transfer of personnel at that time, and I can also spare some free time."
"Is the Doom Patrol so powerful? Where it passes, others can't walk?"
"The doom it spreads is almost impossible to resist. Whoever walks on the path it passes will be unlucky." Sanders couldn't help but flash a fear in his eyes when he said this.
Now the entire Watch Fortress is in a state of dejection because of the appearance of the Doom Walker. All the apprentices know that the Watch Fortress may be abolished, so no one continues to work.
However, although the apprentices have become more relaxed, they are still not very happy. Because if the Watch Fortress is abolished, they will inevitably move to other fronts, and safety cannot be guaranteed on the way of transfer.
The apprentices are unhappy, and the wizards may not be happy either.
Vifite came to the Watch Fortress to go to the inner layer. Now, as the Doom Walker appeared, there is no way to go.
Sinafa learned from Sanders that there is resurrection sand in the inner layer. She also planned to recuperate for a while and then go to the inner layer to explore. Now she can only wait for the transfer.
In the entire fortress, the only happy person is probably Madeline.
Because Dongla is still searching for demon materials in the inner layer.
She didn't know about the Doom Walker, so if she returned through the passage of the critical forest, she would definitely be infected with doom.
At present, there is no way to notify Dongla.
Even if the puppet is used to notify, it will be corroded by bad luck and will never be able to pass the message to Dongla.
If nothing unexpected happens, Dongla is very likely to be infected with bad luck. How can Madeline not be happy?
...
During this period, Angel has been staying in Sanders' gravity garden to discuss matters about the Dream Wilderness with him.
At the same time, Sanders is also catching up on Angel's basic knowledge.
Two days later, Samantha came back from Sky Island and brought back a message. Everyone will stay in the Watch Fortress temporarily until the martial law in Demon City ends. If there is no abnormality in the Critical Forest, they will evacuate to Kodo Port.
This news is not surprising. Now they stay in the Watch Fortress, just waiting for the "one in ten thousand" possibility.
Maybe the descendant of the demon god is not afraid of bad luck and really comes out of the critical forest?
This possibility exists, but it is extremely slim. No one took him seriously, and because of the bad luck in the critical passage, it was temporarily impossible for the demons to attack. All frontline watch fortresses that were known as the most dangerous in the past have now become extremely safe.
It was a rare period of relaxation for everyone.
The day after Samantha returned, all wizards in the entire fortress received a magazine, "Frost Moon Secret Issue."
"Frost Moon Secret Journal" is the internal magazine of the Frost Moon Alliance. It contains a lot of secret information that has never been released to the outside world in the past. However, all wizards on the front lines of the Abyss, whether you are from the Frost Moon Alliance or not, are eligible to get a copy.
This time, Samantha went to Sky Island and brought back the latest "Frost Moon Secret Issue".
Sanders took the secret publication and flipped through it. Just halfway through, his eyes suddenly shrank.
The next second, Angel appeared in the study with a cup of light golden milk in his hand.
Angel was also shocked. He was still in the gravity garden before, but he was pulled out by Sanders in a blink of an eye. The most important thing is that he happened to be holding the sap of the milk fruit tree in his hand! Moreover, there is still a bit of milky white and golden viscous liquid on the lips!
Where does this put his face?
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Angel's face, he coughed twice and said, "I was too tired from studying and a little thirsty, so I took a few sips."
As he spoke, Angel hurriedly tried to put away the milk cup.
Sanders was originally in shock because of the previous records in "Frost Moon Secret Journal". Now, seeing Angel's appearance, he couldn't help laughing.
Hearing a deep, guttural laugh, Angel raised his head and looked at Sanders suspiciously.
Could it be that Sanders deliberately picked him out of the gravity garden when he was drinking milk?
After Sanders laughed, he saw that Angel's expression was getting darker and darker, and his eyes were full of suspicion, and then he said: "I called you out this time because of something."
Sanders lifted the magazine in his hand, pointed to one of the pages and said to Angel:
"Lucas's skull has been found."
Angel's eyes flashed, and the complicated thoughts in his mind were instantly thrown away, and all his thoughts were focused on Sanders's words.
Has Lucas' skull been found? !
He hurriedly walked to the desk and looked inside the magazine.
The first thing he saw was not what Sanders called "Lucas Skull", but a row of huge words: Stargazing Day.
The next subtitle is the very plain "Prophecy 2: The Mysterious Object Lost in the Devil's Sea"
It sounds plain to read, but the content recorded in it shocked Angel's heart!
He had been wondering who had taken the mysterious object away. He obviously did not touch Lucas's skull, but it didn't take long for news that the mysterious object was missing. In other words, after he left, someone among the many true wizards secretly took away Lucas's skull.
This was Angel's previous guess, but it was denied by Sanders.
Because with the ability of "Poseidon" Florence, he can encompass the entire dark space at a glance, and no one can sneak away anything in his sight.
Because of this, Angel was very curious as to who took away Lucas's skull and arranged Song of the Deep Sea along with Xialu Ridge... and most importantly, also implicated him! He was almost killed by Sliu in the Yinlu Royal Family!
Angel read it carefully.
According to the record in the magazine, this was discovered by an observer named "Ivan" while peering into the mystery of the starry sky.
When he was halfway through looking, his brows furrowed.
"That mysterious thing is not in the hands of humans?" Angel asked in surprise, "How is it possible? Did Levia Tang get it?"
After Angel finished speaking, he felt something was wrong. If it was Livia Hall, they would have discovered it long ago.
"The prophecy that Ivan received showed that Lucas's skull is indeed not in human hands. It is recorded later that some people speculate that it is humans who may have obtained the mysterious object, but they have placed it in inhuman hands." After a pause, Sanders added: "And that person can block prophecies from prying eyes, and may have extremely rare alchemy tools that can block prophecies."
The more Sanders talked, the more Angel felt something was wrong.
He has the alchemy tool to block the prophecy, and based on the situation at the time, it is indeed difficult for anyone else to take Lucas's skull away from Florence...
Angel's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered that there was another possibility.
Could it be that Toby took it away?
Toby did have time to take away the skull, and since Toby was always with him, the effect of Blood Night Shelter could completely cover it.
Angel turned around and looked around, but did not see Toby.
The passage to the critical forest was sealed before, and there was no danger around. Toby was at ease with the abyss, so he released Toby, but told him not to go to the critical forest and not to fly too far.
"What are you looking for?" Sanders asked confused.
Angel hesitated for a moment, then expressed his guess: "I wonder if Toby took away Lucas's skull?"
Sanders was stunned for a moment and then laughed: "It's not Toby, you'd better keep reading."
