Chapter 485: Outside the Garden
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
On the top floor of the machine tower, there was a great chamber that was built to resemble a large metal box. The metal walls were glowing with different runes while a screen hovered in the middle, which displayed a burning lava lake. Occasionally, several flying fishes would leap out of the lava. They were then immediately killed by a witch before she stored the dead fishes inside her storage necklace.
A man in a black robe was watching the screen. Using the brightness, one could see the man’s skin, or what should have been his skin, giving out the glimmer of polished metal.
Now and then, he would look away from the screen and fall into his own thoughts.
The witch displayed on the screen was now looking at the abyss in the middle of the lava lake.
“Ho ho… she’s coveting our main sacrificial material. Such a brave girl.”
The door of the chamber was pushed open, and a handsome-looking figure walked inside while wearing a bright smile on his face.
The robed man did not look back. “I thought it’s ‘The Spade’ who would come first. So it’s you instead, huh Muse?”
“Restrain him, huh?”
You’re just having fun, Mithra complained in his mind. Each time Muse got his hands on a new “toy”, the man would quickly try something fun with it.
That was why Mithra ended up here.
The image shown by the monitor fixed at the location of the dimension barrier. They saw a huge swarm of demon fishes that included several near-wizard-level ones hunting for a single individual.
“That’s… an Ignis Medusozoa!” someone exclaimed loudly while pointing at a giant jellyfish.
This exceptionally eye-catching creature floated above all other fishes while releasing blue embers into the environment. Those unfortunate enough to touch them would soon become ash and bones.
This “Ignis Medusozoa” too, was one of the main sacrificial materials for the garden.
Here, Lawson and Muse were the only two who were confident enough to confront all of these monsters, while the others would admit that they couldn’t get away in one piece if they were there.
It was easy enough to pick them off one by one, but when so many fishes gathered…
“Who’s the brave b*stard that attracted so many monsters?” They all checked who was flying beside the barrier.
Next, they either frowned, sighed, or laughed when they could see the boy’s face clearly.
Clearly, whoever angered all the fishes had ejected his soul, which was standing right in front of the dimension barrier while dragging his body behind.
“Is he a Soul Manipulator?”
“Hey, look at his face. Do you remember what the magazine said the other day?”
“I see it now… He’s Sunders’ student, Angor, is it?” Soon enough, someone recognized Angor’s identity.
“Yup. Who’d think the boy’s the first one to reach the barrier? It makes sense though. All of Phantom’s students are weirdos. Brilliant weirdos.”
As the others discussed, Mithra remained silent and tried to get over his surprise. He always believed that Angor, as someone extremely talented in alchemy, didn’t have much combat experience due to his age.
But the damn boy is good! Both his strength and his gut!
Lawson suddenly said something that drew their attention, “Now this is interesting… That kid possesses the power of a natural law.”
