The unexpected appearance of the Doom Patroller caused great changes in the entire Watch Fortress.
Even after Samantha rushed back to the fortress, she immediately diverted to the Hanging Waterfalls and conveyed what happened here to Sky Island.
At the same time, Sneffa also sent scouts to track the route taken by the Doom Patrol to avoid other wizards passing by this route.
In the end, Samantha's guess was correct. The Doom Patrol took the route from the Howling Plains to the Silent Coast. However, when it reached the Silent Coast, it slipped into the Silent Dead Sea and its whereabouts are unknown.
Angel stood on the fourth floor of Sanders' room and looked out.
The atmosphere of the entire Watch Fortress has changed from the previous prosperity to a bit of decadence. Even the previously shiny steel buildings seemed to be a bit shabby.
All these changes were brought about by the Doom Patrol.
"What kind of existence is the Doom Patrol?" Angel murmured curiously.
Angel was still researching and went to the balcony to take a look at the situation after hearing some outside rumors. He just muttered to himself, but he didn't expect anyone to actually answer him.
"That's a monster that everyone avoids. Its misfortune can even repel even the lord of the abyss."
The familiar voice made Angel turn his head sharply.
But Sanders' figure suddenly appeared behind him, transforming from a blurry image into a real body.
"Teacher, are you back?" Angel said respectfully.
Sanders walked up to the high platform, his leather boots leaving a few shallow footprints on the snow, then stopped beside Angel, raised his eyebrows and said: "I have heard what Kanter said, what have you done in the past two days?"
What happened?"
"No." Angel blinked, looking innocent.
Sanders didn't ask further questions. He had already learned the specific situation from Kanter, about the female worm. For Kanter, this incident irritated him, but as far as Sanders was concerned, compared to the previous
The things Angel said were nothing at all.
It's just that I got a relatively good opportunity.
"I remember Ness once broke into the research institute ruins of the 'Heart of the Swarm'. After returning to the Savage Cave, I will help you go there and ask." Sanders is also more happy to see Angel can cultivate soft shape-shifting insects.
, after all, transfiguration is something that wizards must learn.
Angel thanked him happily. At present, he is only following Kanter's suggestion. If there are more detailed records, the chance of cultivating the soft shape-changing insects will also increase.
"Don't thank him too early. Nice may not really know anything." Sanders paused and changed the topic: "Did you complete the tasks I assigned you when I left?"
A look of embarrassment flashed across Angel's face. He had been tinkering with the invasion of dream-weaver ants for the past two days and had not done anything to create an alchemical illusion.
"I originally said I would start practicing today, but I didn't expect the instructor to come back so early."
"Since you haven't practiced yet, let's just leave it alone. It won't take long. After Samantha comes back from Sky Island, the next step in the Watch Fortress should be up." Sanders looked at the snow-covered landscape in the distance.
Critical Forest: "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 no longer take the passage in the critical forest, and the role of the watch fortress will not be that great. There will definitely be transfers of personnel by then, and I will also
You can take some free time."
"Is the Doom Patrol so powerful? Wherever it goes, others can't walk?"
"The bad luck it spreads is almost irresistible. Whoever steps on its path will be unlucky." When Sanders said this, he couldn't help but have fear in his eyes.
Nowadays, the entire Watch Fortress is in a state of decline. It is because of the appearance of the Doom Patrol. All the apprentices know that the Watch Fortress may be destroyed, so no one continues to work.
However, although the apprentices have become more relaxed, they are still not happy. Because if the watch fortress is confirmed to be abolished, they will inevitably move to other front lines, and their safety cannot be guaranteed during the transfer.
The apprentices were not happy, and the wizard was not necessarily happy either.
The reason why Wifet came to watch the fortress was to go to the inner level. Now, as soon as the Doom Patrol appears, there is no way to go.
Snaffa learned from Sanders that there was resurrecting sand in the inner layer. She also planned to cultivate for a period of time and then went to explore the inner layer. Now she could only wait for the transfer.
In the entire fortress, Madeleine was probably the only one who was happy.
Because, Donla is still searching for demonic materials in the inner levels.
She doesn't know about the Doom Pilgrim, so if she returns through the critical forest passage, she will definitely be contaminated by bad luck.
At present, there is no way to notify Donla.
Even if he uses a golem to notify him, he will be eroded by bad luck and will never be able to deliver the message to Donla.
If nothing unexpected happens, Donla is very likely to be contaminated by bad luck. How could Madeleine be unhappy?
…
Angel has been staying in Sanders' Gravity Garden during this time, discussing with him the matters related to the Wilderness of Dreams.
At the same time, Sanders was also supplementing Angel's basic knowledge.
Two days later, Samantha came back from Sky Island and brought back a message. Everyone was still temporarily staying at the Watch Fortress until the martial law in Castlevania ended. If there was no abnormal movement in the critical forest, they would evacuate to Kodo Port.
This news is not unexpected. Now they stay in the Watch Fortress, just waiting for the "one in ten thousand" possibility.
Maybe the descendants of the demon god are not afraid of bad luck and really come out of the critical forest?
This possibility exists, but it is extremely slim. Everyone does not take him seriously, and because of the bad luck in the critical passage, it is temporarily impossible for the devil to attack. All the frontline watch fortresses that used to be called the most dangerous are now
But it has become extremely safe.
It is 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 line 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 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, on his lips
It’s also stained with a bit of milky white and golden viscous liquid!
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, so 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 a very bland "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. Obviously he 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
Later, someone among 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 Lucas's skull and used it to create Song of the Deep and Shalu Ridge... and most importantly, it also implicated him! He was almost killed by Sliu.
In Yinlu Royalty!
Angel read it carefully.
According to the records 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 Livia Hall get it?"
After Angel finished speaking, he felt something was wrong. If it was Levia Hall, they would have discovered it long ago.
"The prophecy that Ivan received revealed 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 non-human 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.
Previously, the passage to the Critical Forest was sealed, and there was no danger around. Toby was at ease with the abyss, so he released Toby, but only 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."
