Chapter 197 Parasitic Mother
Chapter 197 Parasitic Mother
At dusk, the warm red light slowly shrinks at the tip of the mountain in the distance.
Angel sat in his courtyard, watching the warm glow fade in the distant mountain. Unconsciously, his thoughts drifted to Old Land, Big 6. Thinking of his loved ones far away on the other side of the world.
At this time, he doesn’t know what Leon is doing, is he eating well? Is he having his birthday party?
When he left Pat Manor, Mentor Jon was still ill. Now Leon is handling all the big and small affairs for Pat Manor. Perhaps he even forgot today was his birthday, maybe?
With a cry, Angel picked up… a cup in his hand. With the milk, he offered a toast to some place beyond those distant mountains.
Long distances cannot separate the connection of blood.
“Leon, happy birthday.” Angel silently recites the blessing to the other side of the ocean in his heart.
…
After returning to the laboratory, Angel continued studying the illusions.
Speaking of illusions, Angel still did not touch the more esoteric illusions, but took out the notebook and repeatedly honed the basics of illusions.
However, the fact that Angel has not practised those esoteric illusions does not mean that Angel has not read the content on those illusions. He read the notebook Sanders gave him several times over, and he was able to memorize many illustrations and recite many of those illusions backwards and forwards.
In these esoteric illusions, Angel does not pay attention to which illusion he may belong to but impresses the general application of the illusions in his mind. Only when he completely understands the basics of illusions can he learn other illusions by analogy.
Of the illusions in the notebook, Angel is most concerned about the “Rewind Sound Illusion,” a level 1 magic.
The “Rewind Sound Illusion” spell is actually the lowest level illusion spell in the category of sound illusion. In fact, it is no different from a basic illusion but just uses sound to build an illusion. The illusion is basically harmless and can only be used to confuse opponents.
Angel’s attention to this illusion is not to say that he is interested in “sound illusion.” But simply because it may relate to an idea that has popped up in his mind recently.—
Apart from matches, meditation and reading. He has been doing one more thing these days, and that is making a music box for Toby.
The main material for the music box has been determined to be echo flowers. As for auxiliary materials, Angel has recently slowly pondered a rough outline of the list of materials he will require. According to his original plan, the music box would be like the Holographic Tablet, which can play multi-ensemble music without the loss of sound quality.
But then he thought, if he makes it like that, it’s actually no different from a “crystal ball communicator.” Angel’s communicator is at the lowest level and can’t record sound. But when he went to Sanders place, he saw Sanders play a recording of his match on Sky Tower with his communicator. Not only does it have sound but also pictures.
Therefore, if the music box is simply made into a device for playing music. It is better to make a high-level communicator according to the blueprint in the < Basic Collection of Primary Alchemy >.
Since Angel wants to make a ranked level alchemy music box, he wants it to cast spells.
When he saw the level 1 spell “Rewind Sound Illusion” later on, he suddenly got some inspiration. If he combined Rewind Sound Illusion with music, maybe it would have unexpected effects?
For example, when the music box is used to play music, an illusory realm matching the music automatically appears. Just like the music for < Castle in the Sky >. With a touch of music, the illusion is gradually generated. In the blue sky, under the cover of clouds and mist, a faint city floating in the air appears before the eyes. Green grass and trees, bluestones and smooth pathways, along with pigeons flying and cicadas sounding… Imagine how beautiful this scene should be.
Moreover, Angel remembered very clearly what had happened in his experiment last time. This kind of soothing music will not affect the efficiency of meditation but sometimes can also aid a Wizard in entering a state of meditation sooner.
In this case, it would be more interesting if he combined illusion and music to depict another magic pattern that can calm the mind…
Yes, Angel’s ideas are completely interesting.
But the premise of bringing this “interesting music box” to life in this world is how to combine the Rewind Sound Illusion with alchemy? Other problems such as magic patterns, materials and blueprints are no problem, but Angel hasn’t tackled these issues yet.
…
While Angel was practising the illusions, time went unnoticed until evening came at 8:00 P.M.
There are more and more people around the announcement board under Sky Tower. The vast majority of them are mortals hired by Wizard Apprentices to look at next day’s schedules. But there are also some Wizard Apprentices who come in person, and this polarization can be seen from the distribution around the announcement board.
Almost all the Wizard Apprentices are below the bottom of the announcement board, talking with each other. Mortals, on the other hand, are tens of meters away. With their heads outstretched and hunched. Looking at the situation for changes in the announcement board.
The mortals are silent in the rear, but in the Wizard Apprentice circle at the front, they are clamouring to guess the match schedule for tomorrow’s battles.
“I heard people say that the handsome and powerful Shepherd Fox entered the Match Pool in front of everyone today.”
“Then he should have a match tomorrow, right? Of all the matches in the Three Floors of Death, the one I’m most concerned about is Shepherd Fox.”
Two young female apprentices were whispering while locking arms when talking about Shepherd Fox. Their faces were faintly flushed, and no one knows whether it was from excitement or shyness.
“Speaking of which, there is no match worth watching tomorrow. Why are there so many people here tonight?”
“It seems that Parasitic Mother came to Sky Tower today, and some people speculate she might be fighting in her next floor match.”
“Parasitic Mother? Thirteenth-floor match?”
“Yes, I haven’t seen her in a match on the Three Floors of Death for so long. If it’s true, then that would be great!”
“That shouldn’t be possible. Aren’t all the competition schedules promoted ten days to half a month in advance? I haven’t seen any promotion from Sky Tower. And if Parasitic Mother enters the Match Pool, no one will dare to draw lots against her, will they?”
“I don’t know about that. Anyways, people won’t expect anything. They will just come to watch.”
“If you have no expectations, you won’t be afraid of disappointment.”
The sound of noise and rustles stopped when the bell on the bell tower was struck.
With the end of the eight bell calls, the large transparent screen at the bottom of Sky Tower changed instantly, and all the old match schedules were refreshed.
Everyone’s eyes were first glued on the first row of text on the big screen.
The first row of text is always reserved for Sky Tower as what the organizers recommend for matches to watch.
When they saw the two competing contestants for the recommended match to watch, the whole announcement board square was silent…
[Parasitic Mother Vs Milk Baron, Arena Four, Thirteenth Floor!]
Everyone doubted their eyes, and some even rubbed their eyes and looked again. Now there is no change on the big screen, so they are shaking and pointing to the text…
“How is that possible?! Did Parasitic Mother really end up in a match?!”
This is almost the roar in all the hearts of the Wizard Apprentice at the scene. They came to watch without expectation. Unexpectedly, the almost impossible expectation became a foregone conclusion instead!
After a moment of calm, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly exploded.
“Parasitic Mother!”
“The goddess has really finally come out in the end. I want to buy tickets. I must buy tickets!”
“I must have a VIP seat!”
“Ha Ha Ha, I made money today! Maybe I can also buy a VIP seat, too!”
“Unfortunately, everyone can only buy one ticket for a seat. Otherwise, it would not be a loss to buy a few more and sell them back.”
“No, you mortals, come here. Take these magic crystals to buy tickets and give all the tickets to me. I’ll give each of you a silver coin!”
When this match appeared, almost no one paid any attention to the other matches. All of them rushed into the Sky Tower Hall in order to buy a ticket for a good seat. Some people even had plans to scalp some tickets.
Even the two female apprentices who were shy and excited about “Shepherd Fox” at the beginning. The pair had stopped paying attention to any match Shepherd Fox was involved in and rushed in with the flow of people to buy tickets.
The only ones who were left outside were the poor Wizard Apprentices who couldn’t afford to buy tickets for good seats.
Although they cannot afford to buy tickets, they are also familiar with the seeds of each floor and are naturally no stranger to Parasitic Mother.
It’s just…
“Who is Milk Baron? How can he compete with Parasitic Mother?”
“And… Why didn’t Sky Tower promote this next match for the schedule?”
“This matter is just too strange.”
A man wearing a white teddy bear costume was the first to buy a ticket from Sky Tower. Hearing the doubts of the apprentices outside, he smiled and thought to himself: Because Sky Tower knows the match won’t be as exciting as one may think.
At this time, a man in a black robe appeared near Sky Tower.
The black-robed man stared at the top of the big screen, looking at the name that made his heart yearn for a moment. The corners of the man’s mouth bent into ab arc while hidden under the black robe.
The black-robed man muttered to himself in a lingering whisper as if he were talking to a lover: “My treasure, I can’t wait to see you…”
After tomorrow’s match schedule, some people began paying attention to other matches. But almost all of these people are more focused on Milk Baron, to be more exact, specifically about the Alchemy Wizard behind him.
Promi, who is experimenting in his own cave, also got the news: “Has he had contact with Parasitic Mother? David’s young friend is very unlucky, ah! The news of the Alchemy Wizard has been unconfirmed. It is better not to have any problems in the meantime.”
Promi thought to himself: I still have a little friendship with Parasitic Mother. I should see if I can ask Parasitic Mother not to kill the kid in the match tomorrow.
David also learned of the news, and he had even bought tickets for the match. However, just as he learned about the match, the focus of his thoughts had completely shifted away from Angel.
…
At about ten o’clock in the evening, Angel received a message from his hired hands.
He will take part in five matches tomorrow, in addition to the four he already knew about, there was one more.
He guessed that after entering the Match Pool, he was chosen by the other party.
“Parasitic Mother…” Angel silently recalls each contestants’ profile. David’s descriptions of Parasitic Mother are numerous, but in a nutshell, there was only one sentence: Beautiful, cool and dazzling, a goddess one can kneel down for!
There is no technical language in the whole profile. What was Parasitic Mother good at? There was nothing. The whole profile is full of praises, but they were all just empty praises.
Angel doesn’t know exactly who Parasitic Mother is, so he can only see her tomorrow when their match begins.
He looked at the specific match schedule again, two in the morning and three in the afternoon.
It’s worth mentioning that Shepherd Fox is the first opponent against Angel in the arena.
