Chapter 174: High imitations force the original factory to death
and just do what they say.
Thor made himself a fourth wound and collected a little blood and muscle tissue.
Then he prepared the basic materials for making candles, added the juice of the accompanying flowers, flesh and blood, and a little bit of cut candles, and made a complete new candle.
The shape of this candle is similar to the candle on the candlestick, but due to the addition of flesh and blood tissue, the candle changes from white to red.
"I've diluted it as much as possible, but it's still so red. Should I extract serum or other colorless tissues?"
Although there was a problem with the color of the first finished product, Sol also planned to try it out first.
He fixed the candle on the table and threw a small ball of flame into the wick.
But after the small flame floated through the heart of the candle, it failed to ignite.
"Is there something wrong with the material of the candle that affects its flammability? Wait!"
Sol took out the lamplighter again, stood up and walked away some distance, and pointed the nozzle at the core of the candle.
"Chi!"
This time, the red candle was lit successfully, and the wick burned with a pale flame!
"Is it exactly the same as the flame on the candlestick?" Thor carefully compared the candlelight above his head and showed a surprised smile.
"I succeeded in one attempt? Am I such a genius?"
After a brief moment of joy, Thor calmed down.
"After all, the main ingredients are substitutes, and the accompanying flower juice does not meet the requirements, so the actual efficacy may be much worse..." Suddenly
, Thor was shocked, and goosebumps appeared all over his body as if he had his own consciousness.
He turned around in shock and saw that the shelves behind him were full of people!
They are all the corpses outside!
These guys didn't know when to move behind Thor. Some of them were squeezed into the corridor between the shelves, and some were not squeezed into the corridor. They could only stand behind the shelves and "watch" Saul through the gaps between the goods.
But Thor's intuition was that they were looking at the candle in his hand.
Just for a moment, the corpses seemed to be getting closer to him.
Saul made a quick decision, picked up the knife on the table and extinguished the candle.
As a stream of green smoke rose from the blackened candle core, the strange feeling like a glow on the back gradually disappeared.
Thor looked back again and keenly noticed that the corpses were getting closer to him.
Although their faces were still expressionless and their eyes were closed, Thor could feel a sense of disappointment from them.
In the past, although Thor was sure that they did have some consciousness, he had never seen them move actively.
Unexpectedly, it was exposed because of the red candle.
Sol looked at the candle in his hand and thought to himself, "I must have made something extraordinary, right?" "
What???"
A female voice suddenly sounded above Sol's head.
He looked up and saw a black shadow gradually forming from the roof, gradually extending from the shape of a sticky water drop into the shape of a woman.
In the end, the black shadow completely broke away from the roof and fell to the ground. When it landed, it almost doubled as Thor.
"Mrs. Yula?"
"Don't call me Yula, call me Winnie!" the shadow said unhappily, but she quickly ignored the matter and sniffed left and right with her face whose facial features could not be seen clearly. Smell, "Where did the smell just go?"
Smell?
Sol looked down at the red candle beside him. He didn't smell anything.
The black shadow immediately noticed Sol's shift in gaze, looked over, and saw a red candle.
"Is this...did you do this?"
Winnie's shadow came closer. She squatted down, folded her hands on the table, and let herself look at the candle.
"I think its smell is calming." The shadow seemed to raise his head, "Can you light it again?" "
Calming?"
Strangely, Thor didn't add anything to soothe the soul's emotions.
Even the accompanying flower juice that the white candle might have had to stabilize the spiritual body was diluted several times by Thor.
Logically speaking, the effect should not be as good as the original candle.
But Winnie didn't react at all to the other lit candles in the warehouse.
"Winnie, if I light the candle, these guys will rush up."
Sol pointed to the group of corpses behind him that were still "wandering" next to the shelves.
The black shadow looked back and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, they came here because they felt comfortable. As long as you don't violate the taboo, they won't hurt you. Come on, come on..." After hearing Winnie's assurance
, Thor picked up the lamplighter and relit the red candle.
A ray of white light dimly lit up.
The warehouse fell silent.
The living and the dead all stared at the candlelight in confusion.
Thor smelled nothing and didn't feel much calmer. He looked around and found that the corpses were no longer approaching, but each of them was facing the red candle, their faces less sinister and more intoxicated.
"We can't let them know that the raw material is part of my blood." Sol raised his hand uneasily and pressed it on the wound covered by his sleeve. "They didn't react to my wound at all, but they were very concerned about the red candle. This should be someone's This witchcraft reaction caused a qualitative change."
"But why can my blood trigger this effect? My left eye can heal automatically. Is it also related to this change in the body?"
The changes related to the whole body in Sol's memory , it was the experience of his whole body melting unconsciously after defeating the evil spirit Morton.
This matter was also told to him by Senior Byron afterwards. Otherwise, Thor himself would still be unaware of the melting incident.
Later, when Senior Byron examined him, he found no reason for the body's fusion and recovery. There might have been pursuers behind the sailboat at that time, so this matter could only be put aside for now.
Back at the Wizard Tower, Thor didn't notice anything unusual about his body, but now it seems that the experience still had a big impact on him. It’s just that we don’t know yet whether it’s good or bad, or whether there are other disadvantages.
Sol was worried about the changes in his body, but Winnie looked at the red candle obsessively, and even sat on the ground, with her arms on the table and her head resting on her arms.
He looked like he was about to fall asleep.
"Why can you make such a candle, but Gorsa can only make smelly white wax? I said, he doesn't understand the soul at all."
Faced with Winnie's complaints about the tower owner, Sol could only touch the Touch your nose and pretend you hear nothing.
But Winnie continued, even introducing the life of Golsa.
"Not long after Gorsa established the Wizard Tower, the situation in the Western Continent was complicated. People who escaped from the Borderlands established Baidong College on the coast. They ignored the Western Treaty with their backs to the sea and always secretly bullied the Principality of Kema. They wanted to make further progress. Expand the territory of their academy..."
In order to lose the territory and avoid the tragic ending of the country's annihilation, the king of Kema at the time sent people to inquire about the background of the new wizards who entered the western continent, hoping to find a reliable force to ally with.
Who would have thought that as soon as the news was released, the newly moved wizard tower master Golsa would come to ask for an alliance.
At that time, many forces settled in the western continent. Gorsa entered alone, but carved up a considerable chunk of territory.
It is said that his family is quite powerful in another continent, so the forces that have settled in the western continent do not dare to take the initiative to compete with him.
"The people in the Kema Empire must have been deceived by him." Winnie tilted her head, with a hint of resentment in her tone, "Golsa must have been exiled by his family. No one from other forces has gone there in so many years. I approached him. He felt guilty, so he sought an alliance with Kema."
"That's why the tower master married Mrs. Yora at that time?" "
...That's not true."
King Kema, who had been reduced to a principality, took the initiative to lower his profile in order to form an alliance with Gorsa, who seemed to have a powerful background.
In addition to providing supplies to the Wizard Tower every year, they also want to carry out the most common marriage between nobles.
However, Gorsa refused the marriage and asked the principality to send people to help him manage the territory, as long as the tribute was paid on time every year.
Thor was a little surprised, but then he felt that it was something the tower owner could do.
If Golza was really alone when he came to the western region, he would definitely not have the energy or mind to deal with the internal affairs of the territory.
But Thor also didn't expect that he would not even find an agent and would directly return a large area of territory to the original owner for management.
The Principality of Kema must be extremely happy.
Even if they only take charge of a part of the territory, the income can help the Principality of Kema regain its vitality.
"Then how did Mrs. Yora marry the tower owner?" Saul was not really gossiping, but Mrs. Yora's death was obviously related to Gorsa's true purpose.
Is it a study to resurrect a loved one or an experiment to fight pollution?
Only by clarifying the content and purpose of the research can we correctly plan the experimental process.
"At that time, Yula was already a first-level official wizard, majoring in dark elements and obsessed with soul research." Winnie's face kept facing the direction of the red candle, as if she was fascinated, "And Gorsa majored in light. Attributes, they started quarreling over a topic as soon as they met."
Sol immediately pricked up his ears, "What topic?"
"Can the soul...exist independently of the body?"
