After a long time, Rhine broke the silence: “I’ll go in.”
Everyone understood that by “going in,” Rhine meant entering the interior of the ruins, not just staying in the passage around the periphery.
The first to react was Tree Spirit, his brows furrowed: “We still don’t have a complete grasp of the situation inside the ruins. Going in now is not a good time.”
Rhine: “I understand your concerns. However, since Angel has fallen into the ruins, we also need to make timely changes.”
“No matter what, the issue of the ruins must be resolved. We will eventually have to enter. Going in now, we might even find Angel.”
“Even so, we still need to be cautious. Even if you must enter, we need to make thorough preparations.” Tree Spirit also understood the importance of Angel, but when he knew that there might be creatures in the ruins equal or even more powerful than Rhine, he still hoped that Rhine would be more cautious.
Rhine shook his head: “No need to prepare, I have ‘it’ with me. The worst outcome would just be a severe injury and a return to High Cloud Tower. I plan to go in immediately. It’s been three hours since Angel went missing. The sooner we go in, the better.”
The outer passage was already fraught with danger. Rhine was certain that the dangers inside the ruins would be greater. Angel, inside the ruins, could face a fatal threat at any moment. The sooner they went in, the greater Angel’s chances of survival.
Everyone was somewhat silent. They actually all wanted to refute Rhine’s hasty decision, but rationally thinking, this was indeed a relatively acceptable strategy.
As Rhine himself said, with that thing with him, even if he encountered a strong threat, he could still return alive.
But was this risk really worth taking, consuming their foundation? They understood the value of Angel, but now Angel was like a cat locked in a jack-in-the-box, and no one knew what this cat might encounter in the surprise box.
The surprise always contains more shock than delight. It’s too dangerous for a cat to stay inside, as the likelihood of its death is quite high. Even if the cat holds astonishing value, once dead, rescuing it is futile.
Moreover, if Rhine suffers serious injury due to this, hidden dangers might emerge within the organization.
As everyone exchanged glances, Iron Armor Granny picked up her freshly brewed hot tea and took a gentle sip, saying, “Since you’ve decided to go in, then go. If any mishap occurs, I’ll emerge from the Flowing Source.”
Iron Armor Granny, usually residing in the Flowing Source and practicing in a hermit-like manner, now reassured the other wizards, worried in their hearts, that she would step forward if problems arose.
Her strength has always been a mystery, but her statement signified her absolute ability to maintain internal balance.
Hearing Iron Armor Granny’s stance, the others’ concerns diminished slightly, though their thoughts remained complex.
On the other side, Rhine stood up, nodded to Iron Armor Granny, clearly not intending to speak further and ready to take action.
Then, Sanders, who had been silent, suddenly said, “Lord Rhine could delay entering the ruins. I’ve contacted Angel, and he is… not in danger now.”
The previous atmosphere in the Observation Pavilion was heavy, oppressive, and restless. However, Sanders’ words, like a bolt from the blue, scattered all the tense air.
Everyone’s expression carried surprise and skepticism, caught off guard by this turn of thoughts.
“You can contact Angel? How is that possible?!” Before Rhine could ask, Wallace, unable to wait, questioned, “Wasn’t Angel trapped in the ruins? How can you contact him? Or, did you actually put Angel in the Wizard Garden, and it was a puppet that fell into the ruins?”
Wallace’s wild guess earned him a displeased glance from Sanders. Wallace had previously suggested that Sanders should have taken Angel into the Gravity Garden to avoid this situation.
Wallace’s original intention was just to mock Sanders. If it were him, he actually wouldn’t have placed Angel in the Wizard Garden either. After all, Angel is first and foremost a wizard with free will, not a baby in a cradle.
“Angel has indeed fallen in the ruins, but I have a way to contact him,” Sanders pondered for a moment before deciding to speak out.
“The ruins themselves are located in multiple layers of void attached to the Wizarding World, and in theory, they are uncontactable. How did you manage to contact Angel?” Iron Armor Granny couldn’t help but ask curiously.
Before Sanders could answer, Tree Spirit seemed to think of something: “Could it be, the Communication Method that Angel mentioned before?”
Not long ago, it was through the hands of Tree Spirit that people like Babaya were taken away by Angel, so Tree Spirit immediately remembered the research content Angel had mentioned at the time.
Sanders nodded: “Yes, the specific research report might need Angel to explain to you, but I did indeed communicate with Angel through this new type of communication method.”
“I just saw you sleeping all the time. Could it be that you contacted him through sleep?” Nisi wondered, noting that since Sanders returned to the Observation Pavilion, he had been closing his eyes and sleeping, not making any contact movements. So Nisi immediately realized that earlier, his teasing about Sanders being so relaxed as to go to sleep might actually be because it was through sleeping that he could contact Angel.
Sanders didn’t respond to Nisi’s inquiry, instead focusing his attention on Rhine.
Rhine also sat down again. He actually also felt that Nisi’s speculation made some sense, because he knew that both Sanders and Angel were practicing dream-related spells.
However, Rhine did not ask at this time, although he was curious about the so-called new mode of communication that might be related to sleep and dreams, he was more concerned about Angel’s current situation: “Since you have contacted Angel, how is he now, is there any danger around?”
“It is currently impossible to communicate with Angel in real-time. However, just a short while ago, I received some location information from him.”
“He is now in an region full of various mushrooms, and there is no immediate danger nearby.”
“A mushroom region?” Rhine didn’t know what this mushroom region was all about, so he continued to ask: “Then the hands that took Angel away earlier, whose were they? Didn’t they attack Angel?”
“According to Angel, when he entered the mushroom region, the owner of the hands left without saying anything.”
“So, Angel is now trapped in a mushroom forest.”
“It’s not exactly a dire predicament; he is currently seeking a way out…”
