Ignoring Nisi, Rhine took a step and covered dozens of meters in distance, his figure gradually becoming ethereal… Just as Rhine was about to leave, the shallow Star Pool’s surface suddenly rippled.

As the ripples spread, a figure slowly rose from the center of the ripples.

When the brilliance faded, the figure’s true appearance was revealed.

The glossy skin and the bare upper body unmistakably identified the newcomer as——Tree Spirit.

Rhine, who was about to leave, slowed down his pace upon seeing Tree Spirit.

——Inside the Observation Pavilion.

“Why have you come back?” Rhine asked Tree Spirit with curiosity, as he was preparing to look for Tree Spirit and Angel, only for the latter to unexpectedly return.

“It was Angel who asked me to come find you,” said Tree Spirit.

“Is there some urgent matter?” Rhine frowned. “I’ll go check it out right now.”

“Wait!” Tree Spirit quickly called out to Rhine. “Since I’ve come here, there must be other matters. It’s not too late to listen before leaving.”

“Actually, I don’t know why Angel insisted on me bringing these things here, when he himself didn’t come… But since he was adamant, I followed his wish,” said Tree Spirit, while extending a hand over the table.

Two items appeared on the table in an instant.

One was a bulging small bag, and the other, an extremely exquisite and ornate white bone church.

The small bag, being plain and without any energy leakage, didn’t attract much attention. However, the white bone church, made from the bones of the deceased and emanating a thick, eerie deathly aura, immediately drew everyone’s gaze.

“This seems to be an alchemical object for nurturing souls,” Nisi, a soul wizard, immediately recognized the true nature of the white bone church.

Liana added, “The base of the church is engraved with deathly silence runes, indeed used for nurturing and preserving souls. And I sense that there are souls inside the church?”

Tree Spirit nodded: “This is the Cathedral of the Dead, a tool crafted by Angel. You can probe inside with your mental power. In the room opposite the stained glass, there is a soul still in recovery… Remember, don’t disturb the other souls inside, and don’t damage the Cathedral of the Dead, as I still need to return it to Angel.”

Following Tree Spirit’s words, everyone saw the sleeping Reeves in the room.

After a while, everyone remained silent, with only Rhine and Tree Spirit discussing the issue of Reeves.

Tree Spirit recounted everything he had heard from Angel and then said, “Reeves’ soul has almost fully recovered and can be awakened. Angel asked me to bring him here, probably wanting Reeves to personally tell you about some internal details of the ruin…”

Rhine pondered for a moment and looked at the grey-haired old man sitting on the other side of the Observation Pavilion.

“Nisi, you wake up Reeves, but be careful not to harm the soul.”

Rhine could have woken Reeves himself, but since Nisi was there, it was naturally better to let Nisi, a soul wizard, do it.

Nisi didn’t decline and directly used soul magic to extract Reeves from the Cathedral of the Dead.

As Nisi whispered softly, soul waves permeated into Reeves’ soul, and Reeves, who had been asleep for three days, slowly opened his eyes.

“I… am I not dead yet?” This was the first thing Reeves said when he opened his eyes.

“No, I am already dead. Is this my soul? But wasn’t my soul infected by Mystlight?”

Reeves talked to himself for a while, and finally turned his gaze around.

When Reeves saw the people around him, his eyes first showed confusion, then slowly turned into joy, and finally gradually returned to calm: “Lord Rhine, Tree Spirit… Did Angel save my soul and take me away? Where is Angel?”

Tree Spirit: “It was indeed Angel who took you away. He is not here at the moment. Wait a moment, I will take you to see him. However, before that, I hope you can answer a few Questions for me.”

Reeves nodded, knowing what they wanted to ask, mostly about the situation inside the ruin. He was willing to speak.

As Reeves answered questions, time slowly passed.

Half an hour later, Reeves told everyone about his experiences.

After listening to Reeves, everyone was filled with questions.

“There is a surging red light in the ruin, with no place to hide, and one would inevitably fall into a weird state because of the red light? Is this the true reason why there is no return from the ruin, but what exactly is the red light?”

“The crazy woman in the painting, Mademoiselle Goldilocks, injured Reeves severely with a single strike. What is her origin, and what level of strength does she possess?”

“Mystlight, turning Reeves into a terrifying mushroom and even infecting the soul, what is this?”

Various questions were raised, but Reeves knew only so much. He could clearly explain the events in the ruin before the creatures from the Nightmare Plane invaded, but what happened after their appearance was not much known to Reeves.

“Now, it seems that only answers from Angel can be sought,” Wallace said with a serious expression. The content shared by Reeves had instilled deep fear in him. The sense of crisis weighed heavily on their shoulders. Despite their unease, they needed to understand the current situation in the ruin.

What exactly is the expansion of space? What do the creatures from the Nightmare Plane intend to do?

“Lord Rhine, I would like to go with you to see Angel,” Wallace said.

Liana also said, “I’ll go too.”

Nisi also took the opportunity to express his desire to go.

Before, they were unaware of the specifics, so they thought it was okay for Rhine to go first and then relay the information. But now, Reeves’s words had aroused a strong sense of urgency in everyone.

Rhine was silent for a moment to Wallace and Liana’s requests but eventually agreed. However, he once again ignored Nisi’s request.

As Nisi reluctantly showed a sad expression, Tree Spirit suddenly said, “Let’s not hurry over now. Angel has something else for me to tell you.”

Tree Spirit said, opening another bulging small bag on the table.

Five exquisite monocles fell out.

Everyone turned their attention to them. Liana casually picked up a monocle, somewhat puzzled: “This is an alchemical tool, with some mysterious power attached. However, it’s unbelievably crude. Was this made by Angel?”

Tree Spirit nodded: “Yes, it was made by Angel. He wants you to wear the glasses, as he has something to tell you.”

“However, I don’t know what the specific matter is.”
