Chapter 1305: The King of Feilie Has Come?
Ang's hand was still rotating, meaning time acceleration was still in effect, yet the Monarch walked down at a perfectly normal pace.
Seeming to see Ang's confusion, the Monarch said, "I seem to have become immune to your time control. As long as I lock onto someone with my will, the flow of time synchronizes with them."
After saying this, the Monarch landed on the chessboard.
Everyone gathered around, and Negris asked impatiently, "Old Immortal, how do you feel?"
"Very good, better than ever before. I have found the increment," the Monarch said with a smile.
Negris carefully examined the Monarch's condition and asked suspiciously, "You really found the increment? How did you find it?"
They had just been talking about the increment, and he seemed to have said something that shocked Anthony and Ursman. Could the increment really be produced by consciousness?
Of course, they had long known that the increment originated from consciousness and soul, but knowing where it came from and knowing how it was produced were not the same concept. The difference was like "I come from the Main Plane" versus "I came here using a teleportation array."
If that was the case, where did the Old Immortal's consciousness come from?
"Do you remember those intelligent undead creatures in the Undead City?" the Monarch asked.
Negris nodded. Ang had given all those intelligent undead creatures from the Undead City to the Monarch. Could it be that he used them to establish the increment?
"Yes. Ang kept talking about some increment, but what do I know about increments? I could only try to find a way from my past experience. I broke through to the Mourning stage by relying on the soul network. I possess a soul network richer than before, and now, they are in my body," the Monarch said.
Negris was dumbfounded: "You devoured them all?"
The Monarch's foot slipped, and he almost fell to the ground: "I'm talking about nodes, nodes! Their soul node projections are on me, forming an independent consciousness world, influencing each other, and producing the increment."
"Oh, you scared me. I thought you had swallowed them all." Negris let out a long sigh of relief, which angered the Monarch enough to give him a flick on the forehead.
"Let's go, we're going out to find that King Feilie, watch how I chop him up," the Monarch said.
They indeed needed to leave this place. As long as they stayed here, time outside would not pass, and the King of Feilie would never come.
However, as they walked to the portal, Ursman whispered to Anthony, "I feel like we've overlooked something."
"You have that feeling too? What have we overlooked?" Anthony asked.
Ursman shook his head: "I can't recall it for the moment."
Until they left the Spacetime Domain and caught up with Yennefer, neither Ursman nor Anthony could remember what they had overlooked.
Wise men often have strong analytical abilities and can capture key clues from a pile of complex information, but sometimes these clues are too obscure for them to distinguish for a moment, leaving them with only a vague feeling that something was missed.
Finding Yennefer and then finding the Dragon-man settlement was too easy to gain their trust. First, beat them up, solidify the space, drag them together, transform into the Dragon God, and then give them a dose of light to cure the Black Scale Disease; these Dragon-men became completely obedient.
"Greetings, Ancestor," the Dragon-men shouted in unison.
Actually, transforming into the Dragon God and using bloodline resonance would have made everyone believe it. After all, not everyone was as paranoid as Yennefer, but since Ang had encountered Yennefer first and assumed all Dragon-men were like that, he simply did it all in one go.
After stuffing all the Dragon-men into the Spacetime Domain, Negris suddenly thought of a problem: "There is no time in the Spacetime Domain. If we haven't walked two steps outside, will they have already died of old age inside?"
Ang tilted his head in confusion: "Who said there is no time?"
Negris pointed with his claw: "They said so."
Anthony stated his and Ursman's speculation, taking this opportunity to ask Ang for verification.
Ang shook his head: "Time, I control."
Anthony and Ursman gasped in unison. It turned out they had been guessing wrong all along. It wasn't that there was no time in the Spacetime Domain, but that time was controlled by Ang. If he wanted it fast, it was fast; if he wanted it slow, it was slow. Ang was the master of the Spacetime Domain.
"What a perverted Spacetime Domain," Negris muttered. "In the future, if we stuff dragon eggs in there and accelerate it, they won't even need five hundred years to hatch."
Anthony couldn't help but roll his eyes: "With such a magical domain that controls time and space, you only think about using it to hatch dragon eggs?"
Negris rolled his eyes and whispered: "Hatching dragon eggs is already very high-level, okay? If you let Ang hear that, he would definitely use it to grow vegetables."
Thinking of Ang's temperament, not only Anthony but even Ursman subconsciously shut their mouths.
"Alright, now that the Dragon-men have been collected, we have no worries. What do we do now? Wait for the King of Feilie to come?" Negris asked.
Anthony glanced at Ang and then at the Monarch, finding that everyone was quite bored. He hurriedly said, "I don't know when the King of Feilie will come. Waiting here is too wasteful. Let's leave a few warning barriers in the Dragon Tomb and go... what did we come here for again?"
"The stone tablets, the stone tablets! We came here to see the Forest of Tablets. Orit, Orit, where are you?" Negris suddenly remembered their true purpose for coming here.
At the time, Orit had said that he saw content about the God Star's blessing on a stone tablet in a certain dimension, so they came to find that Forest of Tablets. They didn't expect to run into Yennefer as soon as they arrived, and so many things happened in between that they forgot their original purpose.
However, after confirming their thoughts with the Dragon God in the Spacetime Domain, it didn't matter whether they went to the Forest of Tablets or not; the truly valuable information had already been passed to Ang.
Orit climbed down from Lightning, looking timid. It was too stimulating. He dared to swear that all the events of his first half of life combined were not as stimulating as the past few days. Dragon Gods, strange trees, and the King of Feilie—any one of them was not at a level he could come into contact with, and now they were all happening together.
As for reversing time, that was even more beyond his imagination. He had never read knight novels since he was a child, so how could he have such a rich imagination?
This caused him to hang onto Lightning for the rest of the time, not daring to come down, lest Anthony suddenly see him and order him to defeat the King of Feilie, which would be the end of him.
"Do you still remember where the dimensional rift where the Forest of Tablets is located?" Negris asked.
"I know, but why don't you ask the Dragon-men? They are more familiar with it," Orit said.
That made sense. Anthony found Yennefer and asked it to lead the way to the Forest of Tablets.
"You go ahead. I'll wait here and just happen to practice my increment," the Monarch said.
That was fine too. With the Monarch guarding here, they didn't even need to leave barriers. The group, led by Yennefer, flew toward the location of the Forest of Tablets.
However, before they could find the Forest of Tablets, a violent energy shock erupted from the location where the Monarch was behind them.
"The King of Feilie has come?" Anthony and the others were energized. Turning their heads to look, Ang had already soul-shifted away.
