c2312: 2313: Visitor on the Salt Lake (2)

Finding how to let a Nightmare Realm being enter the Wilderness of Dreams seems like a fascinating topic.

"Since you’ve said that, I’ll look forward to our next meeting," Flora beamed, feeling that without Little Red at her side, something was amiss.

Meanwhile, Sanders and Lianna conversed.

"You’ve finished talking already? The Tree Spirit took Lord Nami Midori out for a walk?" Lianna looked regretful; she wanted to chat more with Nami Midori. If she could be persuaded to join the Tea Party... it would be even livelier.

However, since Nami Midori can enter the Wilderness of Dreams, there should be opportunities in the future as well. Thinking of this, Lianna let out a sigh of relief.

Sanders looked deeply at Lianna, seeming to see through her inner thoughts, but simply didn’t bother to point it out.

Sanders understood the importance of the Tea Party in the hearts of the Witches, although he personally found it quite boring.

Sanders turned to look at Flora: "I saw your message among the trees, and I have sent you the information about Nami Midori and the situation of the Tidal World. I’m leaving for the Tidal World myself to see the situation firsthand."

Flora nodded. Previously, Sanders had mentioned he was leaving, and she was worried something had happened at the Barbarian Cave, or that Sanders was displeased with them. But now, knowing the situation of the Tidal World, she understood it was necessary.

The emergence of the Tidal World is significant enough to cause a shock in the Wizards’ Realm.

With Sanders there to oversee and Angel, as the discoverer, there could be opportunities to secure greater benefits for Illusion Demon Island.

Flora also wanted to explore the matter, but Sumishe had just shown signs of resurrection, and she hadn’t given up her research on the Blood Fusion Virus, so she couldn’t leave the area of the Red Plague followers for now.

"I understand." Flora continued, "Then about Sumishe over there..."

Sanders: "I have sent the information to him too; he should already be aware."

At this point, Flora did not say much more.

Sanders: "After I leave, you and Sumishe must be extra cautious, especially you. The research on the Blood Fusion Virus is not accomplished overnight, and the followers of the Red Plague cannot be easily manipulated. If a few more Archbishops appear, both you and Sumishe might end up buried there."

Facing the rare concern from Sanders, Flora felt a slight ripple in her heart.

With a solemn tone, she replied: "I will be careful."

Sanders patted Flora’s shoulder, and he actually had high expectations for Flora’s perseverance. He hoped she could indeed embark on the path of True Knowledge through the Blood Fusion Virus.

They exchanged a few simple pleasantries, then Sanders and Angel both went offline together.

Returning to reality, Angel opened his eyes on the Gondola.

"It’s about to begin," Angel said softly.

Dangross, sitting on the table, looked over curiously: "What’s about to begin?"

"You’ll find out soon enough." Angel casually replied and then instructed Speedy to lower the Gondola, finally landing on the ground.

"You all stay on the Gondola, Speedy and Lobal stay too, do not follow me, to avoid being accidentally injured by Spatial Energy." Angel turned to the Elemental Creatures and said.

After speaking, Angel jumped down from the Gondola alone.

He looked around his surroundings.

The ground was covered in fine, soft white sand, and not far away was a salt lake that seemed to stretch endlessly, where it met the sky.

The salt lake was not deep, at its deepest only submerging to the waist. The lake bottom was pure white crystal, and the refractive index of salt water was far lower than that of fresh water, making the salt lake, viewed from afar, appear as a pure and immaculate water mirror.

The azure sky, and the massive convective clouds like inverted mountains, were reflected in this water mirror, revealing stunning beauty.

"Such a scene is hard to see in the outside world." Angel gave full affirmation to the beauty in front of him.

And such beauty, in the untainted Tidal World, was everywhere. Moreover, this vast salt lake wasn’t even among the top sights, it didn’t even have a name.

Yes, this salt lake is indeed a nameless place.

It is also the most stable area for Spatial Energy, as located by Speedy.

The nearest Elemental Territory is the Green Forest Domain, several hundred miles away. Usually, no Elemental Creatures would visit here.

Due to the unique property of the salt water, even Water System creatures wouldn’t come here, making it an ideal location for using the Plane Corridor.

Angel stepped into the salt lake, and his black-gold boots did not sink into the water, but instead treaded along the surface without causing any ripples.

Walking along this sky-reflecting mirror for about a hundred meters, Angel stopped.

Silently he recited the Path Mark given by Sanders and took out the casting materials he had prepared in advance.

The Mind Space constructs a model, the materials provide support through Special Energy.

As ripples spread beneath his feet, cracks began to appear before Angel. When the cracks reached a peak, a mass of mirror-like fragments burst open.

An ominous, pitch-black, abyss-like hole appeared out of nowhere.

On the Gondola in the distance, Cubic watched Angel intently, wanting to see what he was about to do. Upon witnessing the strange abyss appear, it seemed to realize something, and its previously lively expression suddenly changed.

At the tip of Lobal’s tail, feeling the massive rush of Spatial Energy from the abyssal entrance, a subtle change of expression occurred: "Is it finally happening?"

Cubic: "...It seems so."

Dangross was also watching, but like Lobal’s main and secondary heads, it was completely befuddled: "What are you talking about, what’s coming?"

"Change." Cubic paused, seeming to find that term insufficient to describe everything, so altered it: "Or perhaps, the Great Change."

"The Great Change of the Tidal World?" Dangross was not dim-witted, with just a hint from Cubic, it immediately caught on.

"Are humans about to arrive?"

"When Mr. Pat appeared here, it was only a matter of time until this day arrived. I just didn’t expect it to be so sudden." Cubic sighed lightly, despite having accepted the fact that humans would enter the Tidal World, now that the day had come, even the usually composed Cubic felt a trace of unease.

Not only Cubic, but Lobal’s tail-end likewise rarely showed a worried expression.

Its concerns differed from Cubic’s; it concerned itself with not being by the side of Hurricane Huborio in this world-changing moment and was uncertain about what decision His Highness will ultimately make.

The thoughts of everyone on the Gondola were very complex at this time.

Over on the other side, in the open Black Abyss, after a few minutes, the outline of a human silhouette finally appeared.

The black silhouette, as it left the dark abyss, changed from flat to three-dimensional.

Light is the shaping brush.

Sketching out a perfect and tall figure.

The arriving one is Sanders.
