Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 2087: Chapter 2088: Minor Incident

It was the first time Angel had seen the mechanism of converting consumed energy through the desire to kill.

Apart from some unspeakable mysterious powers, the transformation between most energies usually aligns with a relatively conserved state.

Yet the desire to kill is a kind of thought; when a powerful thought transforms into controllable energy, what mechanism is this? Can it be considered within the conserved state?

He had only heard of similar situations before, where Demon God believers gain power through faith. Faith is, in essence, a thought, but the power of faith acquired by believers is essentially some benefits leaked from the Demon God’s fingernail gaps.

This is completely different from what the Power Furnace causes.

How exactly does thought transform into a force that affects the Material Realm?

Angel had not held much hope for the Power Furnace before, but now its displayed effects truly piqued his interest.

Because of the effect on spirit intelligence, the Power Furnace might not be usable on normal humans, yet some of its displayed properties are truly worth researching.

”What does Lord Shava think of the performance of the Power Furnace?” the boiling gentleman asked.

”Slaughter as the spring, nightmare as the source, continuously bringing peak battle power, it’s perfect.” Angel nodded, praising it. The past power of the Mist Machine Valen might have been slightly weaker than in the first battle, as the power shown in the first battle alone was definitely incapable of handling the subsequent three rounds. Yet under the influence of the Power Furnace, Mist Machine Valen can easily break through the arena, and as the killing desire increases, his state remains at its peak, clearly showing the strength of the Power Furnace.

Hearing Angel’s praise, the boiling gentleman was also very excited, incessantly extolling the many advantages of the Power Furnace.

Angel pondered whether to take this opportunity to inquire about the method of refining the Power Furnace.

Directly asking the boiling gentleman to give him a Power Furnace for study is unrealistic. Regardless of whether the boiling gentleman is willing to part with it, the Power Furnace itself clearly bears the interference marks of the refining owner.

This means the Power Furnace has the personal mark of the boiling gentleman, and outsiders would have no way to use it even if they got it, let alone conduct deep research.

Therefore, inquiring about the refining method is more valuable. However, whether to ask and how to ask is the dilemma Angel faces.

As Angel was hesitating, the boiling gentleman suddenly interrupted his exposition on the advantages of the Power Furnace, squinted his eyes, and softly exclaimed, ”Oh?”

”Lord Shava, I wanted to demonstrate more features of the Power Furnace, but a small situation has arisen outside, it seems we need to leave early.”

A small situation? Angel, though unaware of what happened, still nodded.

The boiling gentleman reached out his bandage-wrapped hand to cover his face. With an eerie chuckle escaping, everything around them began to change.

The glowing platform below shattered, and the black mist, as if swept by a fierce wind, surged into the boiling gentleman’s body.

As the mist entered, the ”mummy” appearance that the boiling gentleman had displayed gradually faded away, once again entering a state of invisibility.

When the black mist completely disappeared, they had already returned from the black dream space to the laboratory beneath the dome.

Angel was just about to see what the so-called ”small situation” was, but before he could extend his spiritual power, he felt a strong gust of wind coming from the front.

Angel had kept his mind on edge since entering the Duling Garden, never relaxing, so he immediately detected the direction of the attack.

The attack’s strength wasn’t strong, a simple Defense Spell was enough to ward it off. However, in the Nightmare Realm creatures’ territory, Angel thought it best to avoid using Wizard’s spells when possible. So he didn’t construct a spell model but activated the green pattern in his right eye.

As soon as the green pattern representing the ”Domain Field” was activated, the fierce wind that came rushing was immediately repelled.

After doing all this, Angel glanced blandly in the direction from which the wind came.

To the naked eye, it was an empty expanse.

However, in his spiritual power perspective, he saw a transparent snot monster hiding in a dead corner of the workbench, curling its body like clay, hiding behind a metal cup, trying to conceal itself.

”Oh, a Void Traveler?” Angel was taken aback, how did another Void Traveler appear here?

As Angel was in a daze, a series of crackling noises came from behind. Turning back, he saw numerous tendrils of black mist spreading out from the boiling gentleman’s body, wildly stirring in the laboratory.

Soon, these tendrils were raised into the air, with every end of the tendrils binding a transparent Void Traveler.

Twelve Void Travelers were hoisted like kites by the tendrils.

Looking at this group of Void Travelers, Angel seemed to have realized something and his gaze fell on the transparent pipeline at one side of the laboratory.

Previously, the pipeline door was tightly shut. But now, a crack had appeared in the door.

Apparently, these Void Travelers were the group that had been locked in the transparent pipeline, and now they slipped out through this gap.

However, how was the pipeline door opened?

Angel’s peripheral vision caught the obvious damage on the workbench and compared it with the marks on the pipeline door, he immediately understood.

It was probably the red light emitted by the Mist Machine Valen before that inadvertently scraped the pipeline door, allowing this group of Void Travelers to escape.

As Angel figured out the crux of the matter, his gaze naturally shifted to the golden patterned rare birdcage beside him.

Previously, when the boiling gentleman was capturing Void Travelers, the area near the rare birdcage had the most Void Travelers.

A little reasoning would reveal that this group of Void Travelers, after managing to escape, did not flee but lingered around the rare birdcage. Presumably, their goal was to rescue that oversized fellow of their kind.

Unfortunately, there is abnormal power set by the boiling gentleman surrounding the rare birdcage; with the Void Travelers’ frail power, it’s impossible to break the rare birdcage.

What’s more, the Dalmatian is still beside the rare birdcage.

Thinking of this, Angel suddenly noticed something strange.

The Dalmatian had a strong desire for the Void Traveler inside the rare birdcage, which Angel had noticed before. Yet, strangely, the Dalmatian had no interest whatsoever in the Void Travelers caught by the boiling gentleman around, not even giving them a second glance.

Evidently, the Void Traveler the Dalmatian wants is only the oversized one in the rare birdcage; it’s not interested in any others.

Why is that?

Angel’s gaze couldn’t help but return to the Void Traveler inside the rare birdcage.

Does this fellow have anything special?

Aside from being a bit fatter, it seems no different from the other Void Travelers.
