Chapter 432: Signs (1)
Angele played with the eyeball for a while and did some simple experiments on it; however, he did not detect anything strange . It felt like an eyeball from a random creature .
The only difference was that the eyeball could not be destroyed as it would recover any damage that Angele did to it .
Also, Angele tested the parts he removed from the eyeball, but he did not find anything noticeable .
There was no bloodline essence in the eyeball, which meant that Angele could not extract the bloodline from it, so he returned it to his pouch .
'Maybe Eye Devil will be interested in this thing,' he assumed . Collecting eyeballs was one of Eye Devil's hobbies and she would pay a good price for a rare eyeball .
Angele glanced around and pressed his chest with the right hand, then disappeared into the air with a flash of red light .
**********************
In the Nightmare Realm .
The mansion by the Ness River .
A red shadow appeared in the reading room of the mansion .
Angele lowered his hands and glanced around .
"Huh? Nothing happened to the mansion in this realm? The mansion in the main world was destroyed but the damage was not reflected here . Maybe the connection between the Nightmare Realm and the main world is more complicated than I thought…" Angele muttered .
He walked to the window and pushed it open .
*WOO*
Chilling wind brushed over his face .
Angele's pupils retracted slightly due to the cold .
It was snowing outside, the snowflakes were dropping like light feathers and the whole world turned white . He could barely open his eyes due to the reflected light .
The forest, the land, the river, and the hills were all covered with white snow .
Strangely, words were written in the center of those large snowflakes .
Angele quickly grabbed one of the snowflakes and observed it carefully .
The words were written in the ancient language: "The Gate of the World is about to open…"
"What does it mean?" Angele grabbed another snowflake and the words were same . He grabbed dozens of the snowflakes, but the sentence never changed .
"The snowflakes penetrated my defensive barrier . " Angele narrowed his eyes and looked at the translucent barrier .
The barrier was still there, but could not stop the snowflakes from entering the area and the ground already turned white .
*CHI CHI CHI*
Some static noise echoed in the reading room .
Angele turned his head around and looked at a leather scroll on the desk .
He walked to the desk and tapped on the scroll .
*CHI*
A ray of red light turned into a light screen in the air .
The static noise turned into a human voice .
"This is the Molten Palace, again, this is the Molten Palace . The gate to the Soul River Realm will open in three months . We eye devils have already confirmed the coordinates, please send your address to us if you need it . "
The voice finished the sentence and started repeating the same thing .
Angele tapped on the leather scroll again with a blank expression on the face and the voice disappeared .
"The Soul River Realm… They're about to start the plan . "
He walked to the bookshelf and pulled out a black box from the bottom .
*Crack*
He opened the box and took out a gray eyeball statue . Angele returned to the desk, sat down, and rubbed the surface of the statue for five times .
The gray statue vibrated slightly .
"What's the matter? Phoenix?" Eye Devil's voice came from the stone statue . "I'm busy right now . "
"Have you recovered your power? Are you preparing to enter the Soul River Realm?" Angele wondered .
"Don't worry about it . Why? Do you want to enter the Soul River Realm as well?" Eye Devil questioned back . "We found the coordinates, if you want it, we can do a fair trade . "
"Of course . It's a great opportunity as I need the bloodlines of other creatures so I can recover faster . However, I'm still too weak for that realm . Actually, I found something you might be interested in recently . " Angele changed the topic . He wanted the bloodlines of the giants so that the power of his true form would increase greatly . The biochip could help him extract the bloodlines much faster than the sealed forms since they could not purify the bloodline essence .
He wanted to increase his power as fast as possible .
"What's the item? I thought you only collected extremely rare items . " Eye Devil was interested .
"An eyeball that is related to… I mean from the Destruction Eye . "
"Destruction Eye?" Eye Devil remained silent for several seconds, it seemed like she was thinking, and she finally spoke again after several minutes . "Destruction Eye is a strong creature in the Oblivion Realm and it can send its body parts to any realms it wants . I want to know how strong the body part you found is . Let's set up a meeting and discuss the price . I need to verify the item by myself so I'll know how valuable it is . "
"Sure, let's find an area around the mansion . Do you have time now?" Angele responded . "You know my location, right?"
"Sure, I'll be there soon . "
The stone statue stopped vibrating as the voice disappeared .
Angele was gifted the item after he helped Eye Devil after the auction and he could use it to contact the sealed forms like Eye Devil .
Vapor, Eye Devil, and Bone were all sealed forms . Angele had no idea what they were, but they all had high power levels .
With the buff from the true form, Angele had the same power level as a rank 5 wizard; however, he was still not sure how strong those sealed forms were . He assumed that they all had refined true forms .
It was mentioned in the Erin's Funeral Oration that the refined true form would make one's body grow in size as his power level increased . A refined true form and a normal true form were at completely different levels .
However, the refining of the true form required countless bloodline essences and that took time . One had to survive the challenge to his soul and the mind with a strengthened body . If one's soul was not strong enough to control his body, the refined true form will turn him into a soulless beast .
Angele returned the stone statue to the box after a while and walked out of the room .
He could see Orphie and Freia making a snowman over the arena, it seemed like they were enjoying the snow . Angele could hear them shouting and laughing .
Angele eliminated all the mutated creatures around the mansion the last time . He decided to allow Freia and Orphie to explore the area with certain restrictions .
Angele did not talk to the two girls, he turned around and disappeared into the flames .
The next moment, he already arrived at the barrier .
The flames reformed Angele's body . He landed on the ground, and walked through the barrier .
White snow filled up his sight and covered the branches of the trees . The chilling wind was blowing and the frozen river was decorated with the large snowflakes .
Some black smoke came from the sky and landed in front of Angele like a black lightning, turning into a woman wearing a black robe . There was a purple silk mask on her face, but Angele could still see her clear eyes .
"Where's the item?" the woman asked right away .
"What about the item I want?" Angele questioned back . "You know what I need . "
Eye Devil's brow furrowed . "I need the essence stones from the blood pool as well, I can only give you four of them . "
Angele nodded and stopped talking, he took out the eyeball .
"Huh? That's a huge eyeball! Where did you find it?" Eye Devil looked excited after she saw the eyeball .
"We've cooperated many times . I want the coordinates, essence stones, and what else can you offer?" Angele noticed that Eye Devil was interested in the eyeball and decided to ask for more .
"Sure, and yeah, we've worked together on many things, so I'll be honest . This eyeball is important to me . " Eye Devil thought for a while and continued, "I'm going to send my army into the Soul River Realm and this eyeball will aid me . Let me know what you want . "
Angele hesitated for a second . "Do you know anything about the eye-gouging dragon?"
"Eye-gouging dragon? A member of the rare race?" Eye Devil was searching through her memory . "I've seen one in the wizard world many years ago . The dragon was evil, selfish, and he wouldn't trust anyone . However, he was a strong dragon; the name was Mura Libra, the king of the eye-gouging dragons . Why're you asking?"
"You own the biggest trading company in the southern area, do you have anything related to the dragon?" Angele wondered . "I want to study this creature . "
"Well, I did notice that you smell like that old dragon for some reason . " Her brow furrowed . "I did trade with that dragon and I still have those items; however, none of them is valuable . He was trying to trick me with low-quality sacrificial items and our meeting did not end peacefully . Are you sure you want those items?"
"Sure, maybe they'll be useful to me . It's hard to find dragon's belongings these days . " Angele chuckled . "Can you still contact that dragon?"
"I can't . The dragon was severely injured after taking a hit from my shadow . If I entered the wizard world with my true form, the coordinates of the universe will be messed up . I only wanted the flesh of 500 different creatures, but he couldn't even prepare that . Good thing was I got the chance to confirm the coordinates of the wizard world . " Eye Devil sounded disappointed .
"Well, that dragon probably underestimated your power…" Angele was terrified in his mind . The eye-gouging dragon was severely injured by a shadow of Eye Devil . He wondered how strong those sealed forms' true forms were .
