Chapter 416: Chapter 249: Making Progress_1
Everyone turned their gaze towards Ange. Initially, he was just standing there dumbfounded, uttering not a word. As their gazes shifted towards him, he wordlessly withdrew his finger into his bosom, covering it with his other hand.
He had been listening all along, of course, and knew what everyone was saying. But when they mentioned Little Ghost, he pretended he hadn’t heard.
This reaction gave Negris much reassurance. This foolish skeleton wasn’t entirely dimwitted. All those things he had been revealing were things he didn’t care about. When something he cared about was mentioned, he would play dumb.
While Ange pretended to be stupid, Little Ghost was truly so. She thought something had happened, and stupidly poked her head out, looking absently around her. Luna saw her in an instant.
“Little White!” Luna excitedly shouted out, making a move to rush over.
Shamara tensed, ready to tackle Luna down.
Scared, Little Ghost quickly clung tightly onto Ange’s fingers and looked towards the source of the sound.
Flames suddenly erupted on Ange’s head, his gaze unflinchingly locked on Luna.
Just as everything was about to spiral out of control, Luna suddenly halted and looked at Little Ghost in confusion, saying, “This isn’t Little White?”
Luna had stopped, but Shamara couldn’t help but continue her momentum, colliding into Luna and causing her to stagger.
The situation was on a knife-edge. Without a doubt, had Luna rashly rushed over, Ange certainly wouldn’t have been polite — either transforming into the Dragon God or Locke, and launching a series of attacks. Would Luna, whose strength was not even a fifth of what it was at her peak, be able to withstand it? This was uncertain.
Even though Luna didn’t rashly rush over, if Little Ghost truly was her pet, Ange certainly wouldn’t return her. If that happened, what would they do? Share custody of Little Ghost and become in-laws?
The best result would be if Little Ghost wasn’t hers. Negris hastily asked, “So it’s not really your pet?”
Luna hesitated for a long while, then shook her head and said, “No, it’s not Little White. Their auras are completely different. Where did you find her? Holy Light Spirits are extremely rare. I thought Little White was unique. But the Gods of Light are very reluctant to let spirits live. They killed her when I wasn’t paying attention.”
Negris, puzzled, asked, “You’re not reluctant? This is a spirit, the Undead. Even if it is a Holy Light Spirit, it’s still a spirit. Why do you want to keep it?”
“Because it’s cute,” Luna responded matter-of-factly. “Look at her, so dazed and adorable. Are all Holy Light Spirits this cute? I would love to have another one.”
As Luna spoke, she kept pointing at Little Ghost. Shamara nodded in agreement at her side.
However, Ange found a problem. The Illusion Magic Array was treating the World Tree as a typical plant for simulation. It needed water, sunlight, air, and an appropriate temperature to grow.
The growth of the World Tree didn’t stimulate the growth of surrounding crops, nor was its growth promoted by the growth of nearby crops.
This contradicts the characteristics of the World Tree. Apparently, the form couldn’t simulate this feature.
Never mind, let’s uproot it. Let’s plant some Elf Beans, Divine Wood, and Soul Moss, and some Upgrade Beans. Ange scanned into the illusion array almost all crops he could grow.
“Stop playing, Ange, come over here and catch it!” Negris called out in annoyance from afar.
Ange reluctantly pulled his hand out of the space. He stopped farming in the Boundary-crossing Hand and started to plant in the simulating illusion array.
After withdrawing his hand, Ange rushed towards Negris. Soon, he saw the target, a stealthy big cat.
Seeing Ange rushing up, the big cat whooshed out from its hiding spot in the ditch, initiating a sprint mode and rushing to the distance.
“Roar! Roar!”
“Roar!”
“Watch the lightning!”
Little Angel, Little Zombie, and Lightning came out from different places, blocking its escape route.
With a ‘meow’ sound, the big cat struggled forward and collided with Little Angel. But before it could touch Little Angel, its whole body disappeared in the air and reappeared tens of meters behind Little Angel.
The Dimensional Shimmer of the Dimension Beast.
But before it could land, a bone-handy crossed the space and accurately caught on its neck, hoisting it up in the air. A bunch of people ran over all at once.
Little Angel even took it into her arms, pressing it against her neck, so much so that its tongue hung out.
“Let’s see where you can run to. Even Dimensional Shimmer is able to come out, it should be pretty much recovered, right? Big Cat, it’s about time we set off for the Land of Slumber. Don’t think about procrastinating anymore, otherwise I’ll seize all your Elf Beans.”
“If Durken didn’t die, he’s probably also in the Land of Slumber. He should know where the King has gone, right?”
