The cat was no stranger to these sorts of things. When it was first rescued in the Land of Fallen, still injured, it had stealthily stolen Harvey’s finger bone.
As a result, Harvey had no choice but to steal from his own younger brother, who then had to steal from his, causing several of his men to end up with differently colored middle fingers.
Using the same trick again, Ange only felt his fingertip touch something hard. His palm quivered slightly as the Boundary-crossing Hand activated and sharply pierced through the barrier, grabbing an oval object and violently pulling it back.
What he pulled out was a gold filigree Alchemy Egg.
Ange’s movements caught the attention of the others. When they saw his hand and the cat’s paw overlapping as he suddenly pulled out an egg, Negris immediately felt uneasy, “Kvada, what have you done?”
Durken was the first to lean in, “Eh, Spirit Oscillator? Whose is it? It’s not from that guy outside, is it? Let me have a look.”
Ange nodded and handed it over.
Negris was so shocked he didn’t know what to say, “You actually took that guy outside’s Spirit Oscillator?”
While saying this, he looked outside the window. Lainas in the air seemed to notice something, looking down for something, and then he shouted in panic, “Where’s my egg? Where’s my egg?”
Durken tapped the Gold-touch Stick, and the latticed golden egg slowly retracted, revealing a rice grain-sized, black crystal fragment inside.
Durken took a sharp intake of breath, “Chaos Black Crystal—it’s Chaos Black Crystal. So he was using the Chaos Black Crystal as the core of the Oscillator. My God, no wonder I couldn’t think of it; how dare I even consider this possibility? His Majesty would strangle me.”
It’s no wonder Durken couldn’t think of it—he didn’t dare to consider using the Undead King’s body fragment as an Oscillator. It wasn’t just about doing it. Even the mere thought of it would prompt His Majesty to smash his head.
But this material was indeed logical. Knowing it could withstand the pressure multiplied several times, Durken couldn’t think of anything else but the Chaos Black Crystal that definitely could.
Right then, the golden egg suddenly flashed a burst of white light, and when the light faded, the suspended Chaos Black Crystal also disappeared.
“Kvada! It has an automatic anti-theft setting. The Black Crystal was teleported away. I was careless, so careless,” cursed Durken annoyed, quickly erasing the Teleportation Array’s core on the golden egg.
He was too shocked when seeing the Chaos Black Crystal, failing to remember to check the golden egg, which even had an anti-theft setting—a small Teleportation Array had teleported the Chaos Black Crystal away. Kvada, is this a human thing to do?
Teleportation Arrays come in various sizes—from the small ones like in Ice City that could teleport an object about half a meter, which are the cheapest and require the least materials, and upwards, the larger they get, the more expensive and challenging they are to build.
For the world junction stations, these central arrays are not a matter of cost but require a systematic approach with peak engineering, alchemy, and spatial science to construct.
Besides these large ones, the smaller Teleportation Arrays are actually more expensive, as they need to handle the impact of teleportation. Most materials must be replaced, yet they can’t teleport much.

Using more expensive materials to build smaller Teleportation Arrays is foolish unless one’s mind failed, so Durken never even considered that a Teleportation Array might be set inside the golden egg.
In the sky, Lainas’s heart was filled with relief and joy for recovering his lost possession but also with endless fury. Who was it? Who stole his egg?!
Lainas could no longer focus on Lachie and the others. His priority was to find the person who had stolen his egg.
The Teleportation Array embedded in the golden egg, because of its small size, had a limited transmission range. The fact that it had managed to teleport back meant the thief was nearby.
How did the other person steal his egg? Could there be a next time? Without clarifying these questions, Lainas felt he may not sleep peacefully again.
He took out another golden egg, placed the Black Crystal Fragment inside, and held it tightly in his hands, no longer daring to place it in the lower base of the flying egg.
Then he stood on the flying egg, shuttling around. At any suspicious spot, he would stretch his hand out—sliding away rooftops, car tops, manhole covers, swiftly searching around.
His unusual activity caused the airships guarding him to also change correspondingly, flipping out various weapons, ready for action.
Lachie and Lester were confused, whispering among themselves, “What’s going on? What happened?”
“Seems like someone stole his egg?” Everyone had heard Lainas’s roar, and the current mystery was this ‘egg.’ What kind of egg was it?
“That egg he’s holding must be his Spirit Oscillator,” said Lester.
As soon as he finished, everyone exchanged looks, both Lachie and the other two Truthers showed a flicker of greed in their eyes.
But Lachie was the first to shake his head, “No, magic power can’t be accelerated by spiritual oscillation. We also don’t have his skill set for mental attacks. It’s useless to us.”
Lester and the others nodded in agreement. Even if it was useful, its effects would be limited. Their combat style was already set, and changing hastily would only drastically reduce their strength.
“So, who stole his egg?” Lachie asked.
“This thief is no simpleton. With so many onlookers, they still managed to steal his egg? Have you guys noticed anything unusual?” Lester asked.
