Chapter 781 - Treasure
Angor saw the creepy eyesight scanning through the island and felt his hair stand.
He had to do something immediately to conceal himself. Being noticed by the monster definitely meant trouble.
He quickly canceled the effect of his boots and landed on the ground while deploying a simple nightmare illusion around him that camouflaged his body with the barren earth. At the same time, he activated Infinite Reticence to its maximum level.
But he still didn’t feel safe. The land was almost washed flat by the tidal waves earlier. It was too difficult to stay hidden if more light shined through the door. Even though Leviathan wasn’t a sensitive monster, it would notice the illusion nodes hanging in midair sooner or later or detect the energy of an illusion in this otherwise dead land.
“Must find a way out of here…” Angor forced his body to look around.
The earthquake had ended after it overhauled the whole landscape. Earlier, Torras came to hide in the mountains nearby. However, there were no longer places to hide here apart from a fissure not far from Angor’s position.
He wondered if that was where Torras used to stay before. Nevertheless, going into the land gap should be a better choice right now, as his illusion and Infinite Reticence would fail easily if the Leviathan somehow decided to keep looking his way.
He immediately moved. It seemed the monster was still randomly checking different parts of the island. He didn’t know how much time his tricks would last.
“Let’s move.” Angor tapped Toby’s head and turned away. “Wait… Leviathan isn’t at the door right now. Here’s our chance. We’ll make a run for it, Toby!”
Without a second thought, Angor dashed into the tunnel.
Toby was going to follow behind, but he suddenly sensed a golden light coming from behind him again.
It was the skull on the bed.
While humans might avoid such things that boded ill, Toby simply found the shining object to be rather pretty. After stuffing it into his Snowy Feather storage, Toby left the room and went after Angor.
