Ninety-nine percent of mysterious objects were born from nature, each arising from different causes.
The Inspector had described one such cause.
That cause aligned with his speculation about Reynolds.
But whether the true answer was really as the Inspector had guessed, no one could confirm. Even a mysterious alchemist might not be able to provide a definite answer.
Still, because of the Inspector's words, Angel had developed a great interest in Reynolds... Actually, Savage Cave would not mind having one more mascot, would it?
After all, the Laiyi Association's laboratory was practically half-paralyzed, and Reynolds was essentially free. Perhaps Nausica could sweet-talk the mascot into joining Savage Cave and giving off the last of its warmth. That way, Angel could also observe up close whether Reynolds truly harbored a mysterious gestation within him.
A decision quietly formed in Angel's heart. Once this matter was over, perhaps he could give it a try.
Just as Angel was lost in thought, the back of his hand was suddenly nudged. It felt soft and springy, as though he had touched cool, tender jelly.
Angel lowered his head and saw, through his energy vision, a Void Traveler suffused with a faint purple haze, like an amethyst, repeatedly bumping against the back of his hand. It was more diligent than a professional extortion gang.
"Hyde Land?" Angel called softly.
Hyde Land stopped "bumping" him and drifted leisurely before Angel. Its soft, glutinous body naturally flattened into the shape of a pancake, trying to cover Angel's face.
Angel immediately understood what Hyde Land meant... Wang Wang must have something to discuss with him.
But now did not seem like a good time to make contact.
Angel secretly glanced at the Inspector and found that the Inspector was not looking his way. Instead, he was watching No.
