Chapter 1209: Chapter 1210: Patterns of the Domain Field
“Shopkeeper… uh.” As Angel moved towards Toby, Greerwu noticed from not far away and subconsciously murmured a call, but as soon as the words fell, it immediately covered its own mouth.
Greerwu could no longer be certain whether the core of the shopkeeper now was truly himself or if he had been possessed by that powerful entity.
If it were that powerful being who became aware of Greerwu because of its call, Greerwu felt like crying but had nowhere to cry out its woes.
Angel naturally heard Greerwu’s call, but he didn’t pay any attention to it. He had noticed earlier that both Greerwu and Popota looked at him with eyes full of fear, and Angel still didn’t know what had changed in his right eye. To be cautious, he didn’t look over. In fact, he even controlled a wisp of wind to let his fringe fall down, covering his eyes.
Angel quickly walked over to Toby’s side.
Previously, when that person fought the Lord of the Flameless, he deliberately avoided this area, so Angel saw Toby lying on the brown-red ground at a glance.
From the outside, Toby didn’t appear to be injured.
Angel carefully cradled Toby in his hands, the warm body temperature transferred to his palms and the slow but regular heartbeat, all proved that Toby’s current situation was actually better than imagined.
Once he was sure Toby was unharmed, Angel finally breathed a sigh of relief,
…
Although Greerwu was being intimidated by the Abyssal Will, it did not affect its sneaky observation of Angel.
Seeing Toby solemnly cradled in the shopkeeper’s palms, Greerwu felt puzzled—given the extent of the shopkeeper’s concern for Toby, was it highly likely that the shopkeeper was still himself? Had he not been possessed by the powerful one?
As Greerwu was secretly guessing, it suddenly noticed a somewhat familiar green pattern emerging from the shopkeeper’s face.
Because Angel was facing sideways, with his head down and hair covering his eyes, Greerwu couldn’t see where the green pattern came from. But judging by the direction in which the pattern appeared, it was very likely to have emerged from the eyes.
This “green pattern” already made Greerwu feel familiar. If it also jumped out of the eyes, the first thing that came to Greerwu’s mind was the powerful being who had killed the Lord of the Flameless in seconds!
Could it be it had guessed wrong before, and the shopkeeper was still possessed by that powerful entity?
Without determining the current soul ownership of the shopkeeper, Greerwu dared not go pick up Lord Aoluxiya’s soul, even though it couldn’t move on its own at the moment.
Greerwu could never find the message and could only shift its gaze to the familiar green pattern.
Due to some strange properties of the green pattern, Greerwu actually couldn’t remember the exact details of the pattern, but its general characteristics made it feel like it had seen it before on the powerful one, seemingly… for protection?
Greerwu remembered that when the Lord of the Flameless’s avatar first launched an attack on the powerful entity, the golden Phantom Shadow had not yet left the shopkeeper.
The attack of the Lord of the Flameless was blocked by the green pattern used by the golden Phantom Shadow, and the general appearance of that green pattern seemed very similar to the one on the shopkeeper’s hand.
If it was a protective green pattern, what was the shopkeeper using it for this time? Greerwu wondered to itself.
Angel then attached the uniquely shaped green pattern, glowing with a faint green light, onto Toby.
Toby slowly began to float, and the green pattern revolved around him.
Greerwu somewhat understood. The shopkeeper was using the green pattern meant for protection on Toby, perhaps because he was worried about Toby getting injured?
Greerwu, believing it had grasped the situation, regarded Toby with even more respect.
When it came to Toby, Greerwu couldn’t help but recall what the Lord of the Flameless had said earlier. From his words, both Greerwu and Popota came to understand why they had faced so many hardships along the way, especially when crossing the Void channels, where each new path seemed to bring different disasters. It turned out the real culprit was the Calamity Curse that Toby carried.
Popota had witnessed the horror of the Calamity Curse firsthand in the Watchguard Fortress, and as a creature of the Abyss, Greerwu naturally understood the Calamity Curse very well, knowing that even Demon Lords would find it troublesome.
After learning that Toby was carrying the Calamity Curse, at first, they felt a bit of blame.
But now, they had let go of such emotions.
If not for the shopkeeper, they would probably have all perished there, and no one could have handled the Demon God. Lord Aoluxiya’s soul would surely have been taken by the Lord of the Flameless.
The shopkeeper saved them all, and the thing he valued the most was this seabird. Who were they to place blame? Greerwu even felt fortunate that it had saved Toby’s life in the Void.
While Greerwu’s thoughts raced, there was new movement from Angel.
…
After confirming Toby was alright, Angel pondered for a moment and a green pattern leaped out from his right eye.
This green pattern, which merged with his right eye, was a new one Angel had gained, and he had yet to understand its specific meaning. However, from a superficial understanding, the effect of this green pattern was named “Domain Field.”
Just as Greerwu had speculated, the “Domain Field” pattern in Angel’s newly-acquired memories indeed had defensive effects. However, Angel also discovered that this “Domain Field” green pattern had been used by someone to ward off the Energy Blast from the Lord of the Flameless and… curses.
If this “Domain Field” could resist curses, Angel wondered, could it also prevent the diffusion of curse effects?
Thus, he decided to arrange the “Domain Field” green pattern around Toby. For one, it was an experiment to see if it could resist the diffusion of the Calamity Curse effects like the Icebound Hex; and secondly, with the protection of the “Domain Field,” Toby would be somewhat safer.
After finishing all this, Angel carefully placed Toby into his breast pocket and then stood up.
He glanced at the other two survivors at the scene with the corner of his eye.
Popota lay on the ground motionless, while Greerwu seemed to be pondering something, occasionally glancing to the side.
Angel noticed that Greerwu was looking towards an “Eyes of Light” surrounded by purple and white Primeval Flame, which was indeed the soul of Aoluxiya.
Coincidentally, the headless husk of the Demon God’s avatar was also near the soul of Aoluxiya.
After reflecting for a moment, Angel prepared to collect these valuable items.
Angel walked over, leaving footprints of varying depths on the ground along the way, which revealed that his heart was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.
This was an avatar of a Demon God, and its value was beyond imagination.
Why did Sir Monty spend so many years in the Abyss? Was it not for the bloodline of a Demon God?
The object of Monty’s unfulfilled desire lay right before Angel. Moreover, the concentration of the Demon God’s bloodline within this avatar was undoubtedly much higher than that of Aoluxiya’s!
This was something even Sir Monty coveted, how could Angel not be excited?
However, some regret was that the head of the avatar had been shattered, preventing the acquisition of a complete husk. Even so, this carcass was extraordinarily valuable, and calling it a priceless treasure was no mistake.
Angel carefully examined the Demon God’s avatar and sent Spirit Tentacles inside to circle around its insides.
Flames!
The interior of the Demon God’s avatar was like a furnace filled with flames, emitting a terrifying heat. These flames were beyond Angel’s reach, among them were special kinds of fire, against which even the Spirit Tentacles dared not come into contact, but rather carefully circled around them. Yet, despite such caution, the intense heat still damaged the Spirit Tentacles.
Although it had lost its soul and its head, the activity inside the avatar was incredibly high.
He had almost made a judgment in his heart that this avatar contained some high-energy fires, but there was no remaining consciousness. Given that the husk of the Demon God’s avatar could seal the flames inside, it should be safe to collect.
With this in mind, Angel brought out the Purification aggregate of the Flying Saucer Water and sprinkled it evenly on the Demon God’s avatar, finally freezing it into an ice sarcophagus.
He placed the porcelain-white and ornate husk into the sparkling ice sarcophagus and then stowed it in his bracelet.
During this process, Angel was also contemplating what to do with this avatar.
The avatar’s blood, bones, and flesh were all top-grade materials, but with Angel’s Alchemy level, he couldn’t utilize them yet. Besides, the avatar contained a lot of high-energy flames, including some special kinds of fire, which if extracted smoothly, could serve as a source of fire for Alchemy.
As for purifying the bloodline, Angel was not a Pureblood Wizard, so he couldn’t perform that Trick.
Using it for organ transplantation was also a possibility… however, like Fusion with bloodlines, this kind of transplantation was risky. Although various auxiliary materials and other methods could reduce the risk, organ transplantation with a Demon God’s avatar probably lacked precedents in the Wizards’ Realm, not to mention mitigating the risks.
It seemed that in the short term, it would be impossible to use this husk.
After securing the Demon God’s avatar, Angel’s gaze continued to wander.
Greerwu swallowed hard, his eyes filled with unease. It had noticed Angel collecting the Demon God’s avatar, but it harbored no greed for it – the avatar wouldn’t possibly belong to itself, and Greerwu didn’t think there was anything wrong with Angel collecting it.
However, now that the Demon God’s avatar had been collected, would it be the turn of… Lord Aoluxiya’s soul next?
What attitude would the shop owner have towards Lord Aoluxiya’s soul?
Greerwu recalled the interactions between Aoluxiya and the shop owner. It seemed that they had visited the Misty Cabin only once, and had not had any other disputes afterward. So, would the shop owner spare Lord Aoluxiya’s soul?
While Greerwu was nervously pondering, Angel moved again. However, he did not approach to collect the “Eyes of Light,” but instead went to the other side.
There was another husk there.
And the owner of this husk was none other than Aoluxiya.
