c2147: 2148: Feng and the Oil Painting (2)

A good moment passed before Feng confirmed that Rowling had returned to the depths of the painting world, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.

He no longer discussed the Inscription Space and instead gazed toward the horizon, a faint emotion in his eyes: "Mentioning the Inscription Space reminds me of the Old Earth Continent not far from the Revelation Continent..."

"The things left there, should I retrieve them? Rekton has wanted them for a long time... Forget it, it’s the fate set by the Book of Kael."

"However, the key is in Odeclass’s hands, and that object is placed there, with the entrance being a hidden small door. Can anyone really get the key and find the location?" Feng was somewhat doubtful, but since the Book of Kael is the ultimate mysterious object, it shouldn’t be wrong.

"Never mind, if someone truly gets that thing and can make use of it, they will undoubtedly shine with endless brilliance."

"I will meet you eventually."

After speaking, Feng brushed aside the golden hair hanging by his ear.

"It’s time to go back."

...

On the other side, the Gondola had left Star Lake Castle and set sail once again.

"Why didn’t you stay?" Angel looked at Little Sam across from him: "Star Lake Castle should be a good place for you at the moment."

"Though the castle is nice, I can’t see hope here." Little Sam said this and sneaked a glance at Angel.

Then, sneaked a second glance... a third glance.

In the end, Little Sam was no longer sneaking a look but openly staring at Angel, his entire expression filled with "I have something to say, ask me, ask me!"

Angel was silent for a moment, but he still followed the child’s wishes: "What do you want to say?"

Little Sam’s eyes instantly lit up: "Mr. Pat, I read before in Queen Rowling’s words that at specific points on the Flourish Continent, one can wait for the Transcendents who have taken on the Guiding mission. They will bring me into the Witcher Organization, is that true?"

"That’s right." Angel briefly explained the significance of the Guiding mission for various Witcher Organizations. Also, he indicated that some Witcher Organizations might not guide the Talented Ones peaceably. If one encounters a Black Wizard, like in a "Nine Chambers Bloodsport," then one can only accept their fate.

Little Sam: "Then, can I join the Witcher Organization Mr. Pat belongs to? Where should I go to find the Guide of Mr. Pat’s organization?"

Looking at Little Sam’s hopeful eyes, Angel pondered: "I don’t know either, I didn’t take on the Guiding mission. However, I can ask around for you."

Little Sam’s eyes could hardly conceal his excitement: "That would be great!"

Angel said nothing more, letting Little Sam be excited beside him. He said he would inquire, but he actually already had the idea of guiding Little Sam into the Barbarian Cave.

The reason he didn’t make an immediate promise was simply because they hadn’t measured his Mental Power Value yet. If, even after drinking Witch’s Soup, it still wasn’t up to the mark, then there’s no need to recommend him.

Soon, the Gondola left the mountains and headed towards Saint Sem City... next to Bolai Town.

This time, he said he was going to Saint Sem City only because it’s the Central Empire’s landmark. In fact, his destination was the orphanage in Bolai Town, to meet Frode there.

In less than two minutes, they arrived at Bolai Town.

Angel cast an Illusion Technique to conceal the Gondola’s trace and descended in a small alley.

Shortly after, Angel and Little Sam emerged from the alley.

Returning to Bolai Town, Angel was once again captivated by the artistic atmosphere here. Even though it’s still early morning, he could already see artists painting the dawn on the riverbank; people practicing their voice on the rooftops, sending out beautiful wake-up calls; and some who had spent the night at a concert, with satisfied smiles, passing by them.

The place is infused with art at every moment.

This is just a small town near Saint Sem City. When you get to Saint Sem City, you’ll feel how flamboyantly art blossoms there.

Standing at the entrance of the alley, Little Sam looked at this scene that was both unfamiliar and familiar, feeling an indescribable sense of homesickness.

"Let’s go." Angel patted Little Sam’s shoulder.

Little Sam nodded, following behind Angel, into the small town bathed in the morning’s Dawnlight.

"Mr. Pat, where are we going now?" Little Sam, following closely behind Angel, asked somewhat puzzled.

"To take you for a meal."

Since Little Sam’s talent needs to be tested, his physical condition must naturally be at its best. Otherwise, testing the Mental Power Value with a frail body may not yield incorrect values, but the physical feedback caused by recklessly using spiritual power would undoubtedly be intolerable for Little Sam.

After having a meal, Angel then brought Little Sam to Tyson Alley.

Tyson Alley was as eerie as ever. Walking here, Little Sam felt as if he’d returned to the eerie winds when he previously encountered the undead.

At the end of Tyson Alley was a dilapidated orphanage, with its prefixing letters fallen off, "Dream Orphanage."

"Here it is. You can call it the Dream Orphanage, or... the Nightmare Orphanage."

...

Angel led Little Sam through the temporarily closed Illusionary Realm "Dawn’s Killing," reaching the interior of the rundown orphanage.

They met Frode, who was already waiting.

In reality, Frode’s figure was very solid, hardly showing any signs of being a Soul. At first, Little Sam even thought he was a person.

Not until Frode effortlessly passed through walls did Little Sam realize something was off.

Frode looked at the curious Little Sam, then looked toward Angel with curiosity: "My lord, who is he?"

"Someone met along the way, with some special talent." Angel, naturally embarrassed to say Little Sam got lost, vaguely said: "He hasn’t slept all night. Please take him to a room to rest first, and I’ll tell you his situation later."

Frode nodded and looked at Little Sam, with a hint of unrecognized kinship in his eyes: "Follow me."

After Frode and Little Sam left, Angel closed his eyes and went to the Wilderness of Dreams.

He entered the top floor of the Treehouse Bar in the Wilderness of Dreams, found a random spot, and took out a transparent glass board to log into the Mother Tree Network.

Soon, he found the information left for him in the tree group.

"My dear brother, though I can’t return to the Old Earth Continent with you, my heart is with you. This is my first time using the tree group, and I don’t know if you can receive my message. If not, Frode will tell you."

"Oh, I saw an article about fragrance meanings on the tree group forum. It was written by Lady Lianna. Is it Lady Witch whom I think it is? If so, does this mean the Wilderness of Dreams has already started to open up in a small range?"

This was a message from his brother Lyon.

Angel thought for a moment and informed Lyon that the Wilderness of Dreams would be opening up in a small scope at the Tea Party.

Lyon wasn’t in the Wilderness of Dreams, and there was no way to get a reply quickly, so Angel stood up and walked to the door.
