Main Text Volume Chapter 401 The Strange Ice Cave

Refining is fine, but his only concern is the problem of strange signs.

He is now tied to the same boat with Shadow, and Shadow is from the Sky Mechanical City. It is well known that the Sky Mechanical City is basically a holy place for alchemists in the southern region, so his alchemy should not cause too much trouble.

However, if he refines with great fanfare here, once the strange signs appear, they will inevitably be noticed by people with a "God's perspective". Will that adult really remain indifferent when seeing his behavior?

Angel could not be sure, he could only believe Shadow's words for the time being, and that adult would not stop him.

Thinking of this, Angel calmed down. He began to smelt the materials.

While Angel was refining, Shadow was sitting in front of the fire and looking at the depths of the ice cave.

For some reason, he always felt a little uneasy in his heart. The long tunnel was deep and dark, and the condensed cold air kept gushing out. Even if he just looked at it, his heart was pounding fast.

Shadow's intuition was uneasy, and he turned his head to look at Funis. Phony sat in front of the fire, resting her head on her knees, and fell asleep.

Or, leave here and let Angel do alchemy somewhere else?

As Shadow was thinking, a cold air with white frost and snowflakes suddenly surged out from the depths of the long road.

Shadow quickly built an earth wall in front of him to resist the biting cold wind.

This sudden cold wind blew for a long time. When the wind stopped, the cleared space was covered with a layer of white frost.

Shadow removed the earth wall and observed the surrounding situation. Although there seemed to be nothing strange at the moment, for some reason his heart beat very fast, and the feeling of uneasiness was even worse than before, and kept surging up.

"Angel, have you started refining?" Shadow said in a voice transmission.

After a long while, Shadow heard Angel's response: "Is there something wrong?"

Shadow said "hmm" and said with a little uneasiness: "I feel something is wrong. Let's leave here for now. If we want to refine it, we can go to other places to refine it."

Angel looked at the half-melted material in his hand and finally nodded. Shadow's observation ability is very strong, and his grasp of details and sensitivity to danger should not be bad. Since he said something is wrong, it's okay to refine it in another place. It just so happens that he also wants to discuss the "strange omen" with Shadow.

"Okay, you bring Funis here, we will retreat." Angel transmitted the voice.

Shadow called Funis, and found that she was still squatting on the ground without a response. Shadow frowned: "Is she confused in sleep?"

He walked forward and patted Funis. Who knew that as soon as his hand touched her, Funis fell down.

Shadow's eyes flashed with doubt, and she pulled away the hair that blocked her face. A closer look revealed that Funis's face was covered in white frost, blood was flowing out of her eyes, and her face was frozen white.

Shadow swallowed his saliva and used his mental tentacles to sense Funis's vitality.

But as soon as his mental tentacles touched Funis's skin, an extremely cold force followed the tentacles and drilled into his body. Shadow was startled and quickly cut off the tentacles.

He jumped away from Funis.

"What happened to you? Are you coming?" Angel's voice came.

Shadow's face was gloomy: "Funis is in trouble."

Shadow said as he slowly retreated. When he retreated to the edge of the field, he turned around and ran back. He felt a deep threat from the extremely cold force coming from Funis, and he didn't dare to stay here any longer.

When he ran back, he found Angel rushing over here.

Shadow quickly sent a message: "Don't go over there, let's leave here."

Angel saw Shadow's anxious face, and he knew that now was not the time to ask more questions, so he turned around and ran out together.

This time, they ran to a fork in the road.

"Which way to go?" One side is the way back to the negative sixth floor, and the other side is the way to the negative fourth floor. But now that there is no one leading the team, it is not easy to go to the negative fourth floor. "Go down first, I remember there is a woman on the negative ninth floor."

Angel nodded, he didn't think it was a good choice to go to the fourth floor now.

When they left the ice cave and closed the passage, Shadow began to breathe a sigh of relief and talked about what happened before.

After listening to Shadow's explanation, although Angel didn't hear where the "danger" came from, since something happened to Funis, there might be something strange.

"Funnys is probably finished. If we want to leave here, we must find someone to lead the team. Let's go back to the negative ninth floor first and take the black-haired woman with us. Otherwise, we can't leave." Shadow was still frightened by the strange things that happened before, and now he just wanted to stay away from the negative fifth floor.

Angel said: "In fact, there is no need to go down to the negative ninth floor. Fiona is in my bracelet. Do you have a way to make Fiona speak?"

"Fiona is in your space prop?" Shadow looked at Angel's bracelet in surprise, "Don't tell me that you have void floating algae? The space bracelet that can hold people requires a lot of void floating algae? At least 100,000 magic crystals or more!"

Angel didn't say much, and dragged Shadow into the nightmare realm to prevent the "God's perspective" from spying.

After entering the extremely luxurious nightmare realm, Angel took Fiona out. She looked wooden and showed a standard weird smile of a puppet doll.

When Shadow sensed the puppet silk thread in Fiona's body, he confirmed Fiona's identity. He didn't take care of Fiona immediately, but looked at Angel with a puzzled look on his face.

"I'm getting more and more curious now. What is your identity? It's just that you have space props. You even have void floating algae, and there seems to be a lot of them. Where did you get it? So many void floating algae, Even if it is put in the auction of Sky Machinery City, it can be used as the finale." Shadow originally thought that it didn't matter whether he knew Angel's identity or not, but as they got along more, he felt everything about Angel. It's a mystery.

He knows how to alchemy, can deduce Sipollock's magic array in a short time, has a valuable outfit, and also brings a weird but powerful magic bird, and his illusions are powerful enough to face Madam Butterfly... everything. Everything made Shadow feel that Angel's origin was not simple.

Angel still did not answer this question. He just pushed Fiona over: "My things are not important. If you can leave here and go to Sky Mechanical City, you will know. If you can't leave here, then speaking out will not change anything."

Angel actually knew very well that many people in the wizarding world were wary of Sanders. Perhaps if he revealed his identity, others would give him a soft face and not embarrass him too much. But Angel also knew that there was something more. Many people actually hated Sanders. When Flora was hunted down before she was promoted to wizard, some people actually hated Sanders.

Because of this, Angel didn't want his background to be exposed. If he didn't get preferential treatment and instead caused a scandal, that would be unsightly.

Shadow looked deeply at Angel, silently guessing Angel's identity. Several figures flashed through his mind... There was an alchemist, and there was also an illusion master... But he had both, and he was still in the Savage Cave. He couldn't think of anyone.

"Okay, I won't ask about this in the future. If you are willing to tell me, then we will talk about it then."

"Now that I have said that, I suggest you continue to put Fiona away. If she is seen by that adult, I don't know what the consequences will be, but I am not willing to take the gamble. Let's go to the negative nine floor and take a look. If The dark-haired woman is gone, so play the Fiona card again.”

Angel agreed with Shadow's decision, put Fiona away, and continued walking down.

But they didn't know that not long after they left the ice cave, Funis, who was originally judged to be "bad and unlucky" by the shadow, suddenly opened her eyes.

Her original brown pupils turned gray-white as she opened her eyes, as if covered with a layer of frost, shining with a faint clear light.

She sat up from the frost, and her brown hair turned white. Then, she raised her head and looked in the direction where the shadow had left, a trace of doubt flashing in her pale eyes.

"What a weird soul..."

…

Angel and Shadow encountered no strange things along the way, and spent most of an hour returning to the negative ninth floor.

While on the road, Angel also asked Shadow about the "foreign omen".

After hearing this, Shadow looked at Angel for a long time with an unpredictable look in his eyes.

He did not ask Angel again whether the "odd omen" he created was true or not, but said lightly: "Actually, it's good to be noticed. She knows that you can refine alchemy tools above the intermediate level. Think about your age and achievements. , will naturally understand your value. In this case, she will definitely think a lot about your identity, your background, and your mentor. Maybe she will let us go in the end. "

"Anyway, don't worry. If there is any sign, she will not come to stop you."

As they talked, they arrived at the bath room of the Blood Prison.

The black-haired woman who once bathed in the blood bath did not leave like the guards on other floors, but sat by the bath and meditated.

When they walked in, the black-haired woman was immediately alarmed and looked at Shadow and Angel with confusion and fear. When she was about to take out a weapon, Shadow tied her up with puppet silk thread.

The black-haired woman is a first-level apprentice just like Furniss. She has no backhand against Shadow, a peak apprentice.

"Diablo, why did you come in from the outside? Where's Furniss? Could it be that Furniss took you out!" The black-haired woman looked at the shadow in surprise. She then looked back at Angel: "You are who?"

Angel ignored her, but turned to Shadow and said, "Tell her the specifics, and I'll find a place to continue refining."

Shadow nodded, "Leave her to me, don't worry. There should be no danger here."
