Chapter 190: Pursuing the Shadow of Truth

Chapter 190: Chapter 190: Pursuing the Shadow of Truth

After all, as a Sixth Rank Legendary Bloodline Mage, even though Evonne was bound by tentacles for several months, her physical condition was not seriously harmed.

Since the goal was to capture her alive, in order to prevent the professionals in captivity from dying of weakness in their dreams, the tentacles themselves also functioned as a means to deliver nutrients.

After drinking a bottle of high-level magic potion provided by Anvis and adjusting for most of a magic time period, Evonne’s mental state recovered by seventy to eighty percent.

In the passageways of the ruins, tinged with frost, the faint radiance of the magic frost illuminated two figures moving among the multitude of cloaked ice sculptures.

"So, Evan, brother... Evan, what are your plans? Are you going to return to your family immediately?"

Looking at the blue-haired girl’s face, whose features had become much softer, and her body curves that even the loose cloak could hardly conceal completely.

In order not to provoke her further, Anvis forcefully changed his phrasing at the last moment, swallowing the word ’brother’.

"No, Anvis, that’s too hasty."

Pretending not to notice the discord in Anvis’s words, Evonne shook her head and spoke without hesitation.

"My family guard is missing, and my talisman and belongings have also been lost. To prevent another mishap, I will stay with you for the time being and act together with you."

"I really appreciate that you came to rescue me from this dangerous and remote place, Anvis. I don’t want to trouble you a second time because of my own reasons."

Wrapped in the black cloak stripped from the frozen body of an Alien God believer nearby, Evonne’s ice-blue eyes looked towards Anvis, her gaze calming down again.

"I don’t know if you have any other arrangements on this island. However, could you help me look for my family guard?

If we can find her, it would add considerable strength to us."

"After finding her, if you need help, we can do our best to assist you. If there’s nothing you need me for, with the protection of the family guard, I can also return to my family on my own."

After listening to Evonne’s thoughts and requests, Anvis nodded.

"All right, Evan, then stick with us for now; I will also try my best to help you find your guard."

At the same time, he skilfully took a dark silver necklace from the chest of another black-robed frozen cultist lying next to him.

"What are you doing with those ordinary silver necklaces, Anvis?"

Watching Anvis’s actions with curiosity, Evonne asked.

"Nothing much, I wanted to see if I could use these necklaces as a medium to locate the real sacrifice site of the Alien God believers with a special secret technique."

By the way, reminiscing about the sensation of looting corpses as a player.

Ordinary precious metal ornaments, light in weight don’t burden, small in volume saves space, good value for money when sold as junk.

Smiling inexplicably, Anvis pocketed the necklace and explained his goal to the bewildered Evonne.

"You’re looking for the sacrificial site of those Alien God believers?"

With her ice-blue eyes on Anvis, Evonne recalled the information about the island as she walked.

"Have you been to the cliff between the mountains of this island, with the huge stone statue carved into it? There is a cave beneath that cliff, that is the place of sacrifice for the Moon Calling Secret Sect."

"More precisely, I’m looking for a massive black seal."

Taking off another necklace, Anvis shook his head and casually described what he was looking for.

"And yes, I’ve been to the cave you mentioned, but apart from an altar and some indescribable abyssal creatures, there’s nothing else there."

"I know, you must not have been on this island for long, right?"

Evonne smiled mysteriously.

"This island is not as simple as it appears on the surface. It took me a long time of investigation to uncover this fact."

"Our current location is just the surface layer that this island reveals. The true other side of the island exists within the Dream World—"

"Are you talking about the Dream of Unival?"

Anvis paused slightly, somewhat taken aback.

"Yes, the Dream of Unival. That’s what it was called by those ancient High Elf legends."

Evonne nodded lightly.

"The Dream World that envelops the whole world and even nurtures its own unique community of Dream Creatures—it’s quite apt to name it the World’s Dream."

"You can only see the reality of it when you penetrate the gate with Secret Techniques and enter the dream layer of the world."

"By the way, Lavales is not a good place. Try not to enter that town, and definitely do not open a gate into the Dream World within it," Evonne said and suddenly seemed to recall something, adding another sentence.

"The special dream force field of that temple will gradually erode your spirit and body, subtly changing your essence without you even realizing it.

Ultimately, it will cause you to assimilate with the environment of the entire harbor town, and you’ll never be able to leave Lavales!"

Listening to Evonne’s somewhat terrifying description, Anvis suddenly recalled the second paragraph from the Ancient Secret Scripture.

’Merchants on the ground commit greed, nobles are crazed for it, evil trades grow busier, and the secluded port slips into a dreamland.’

"I understand, Evan."

By this time, the two had returned to the Core Hall of the ruins.

The black-robed Seventh Rank Alien God believer stood stiffly, frozen at the side of the display stone platform, taking on the appearance of a sculpture.

A passage nearly ten meters in diameter, which directly reveals the pale daylight of the outside world, was located on the dome to the side of the hall.

The fine rain falling from outside the hole, picked up by the air circulation in the corridor of the ruins and carrying the scent of the rain and a hint of icy chill, brushed past the ears of the two, lifting strands of light gold and ice blue hair.

Looking at this scene, Anvis suddenly remembered the egg-shaped mysterious object with unknown properties, which had similar power fluctuations to the Rai Temple.

So, he took it out and showed it to Evan.

"By the way, Evan, I found this at the core of the ruins. Do you know what it is?"

After examining the eggshell object made of unknown crystal that emanated a pale white radiance resembling the Silver Moon in the night sky of the island, Evonne took it and felt it briefly.

"Yes, I remember this special power aura. A silhouette used its aura to lure me here, which resulted in my downfall to this place!"

Feeling the familiar power contained within the eggshell, the girl’s emotions became agitated once again.

"If it weren’t for that damned Secret Ceremony Array, how could I have been caught by these riffraff."

As she spoke, Evonne couldn’t help but kick the frozen black-robed Alien God believer next to her.

Under her Sixth Rank power, the robed figure swayed and fell straight down.

Seemingly still not satisfied, the girl then stepped on his face as well.
