Chapter 536 The Soul in the Wizard Tower
The inside of the wizard tower was still dark, and the light source was not turned on in anticipation of its owner's presence.
Thor raised his hand, and an orange fireball appeared in his palm.
Although there is no light, he can still perceive the structure in the tower through the fluctuation of mental power.
But visual recognition is also indispensable.
Especially in the former Gortha Wizard Tower, flames once meant safety.
The first level of the White Wizard Tower.
Nothing at all.
It doesn't even have stairs to the second floor.
But when Sol realized this, an arched doorway appeared directly opposite him.
Behind the doorway, barely illuminated by the flames, you could see several spiraling stairs.
Thor held the fireball to the arch and found that the staircase had an upward passage and a downward passage.
The ascending passage can be easily illuminated by fireballs, while the descending passage is immersed in dense darkness a few meters away.
Even light seems out of reach.
Thor immediately thought of the dark and spaceless corridor between the second and first floors of the Wizard Tower.
"Go to the bedroom first, or the warehouse first?" Saul stopped at the stairs.
He still doesn't know where the black iron coffin that gave birth to the entire wizard tower is. Only by finding the black iron coffin can he truly control the wizard tower.
Just when Sol was about to take the next step...
"Ta...ta...ta..."
A steady footsteps came from below.
Sol looked sideways and saw a face with sunken cheeks emerging from the darkness.
After the thin face appears, there is a slender neck and an equally slender tall but slender torso.
When he first appeared, he was nearly two meters tall and his body proportions were extremely uncoordinated.
But when his eyes fell on Sol and continued upward, his height shrank little by little.
This shrinkage was very strange, and Thor could clearly see his arms and legs folding inward like a machine. Also accompanied by a slight "click" sound.
And when the man reached the five steps below Sol, his height had shrunk to only a little taller than Sol.
Thor is not very tall now. Perhaps the premature witchcraft transformation has overdrawn his bones. He is currently only 1.7 meters tall.
The man in front of me was estimated to be about 1.74 meters tall.
When his height began to shrink from two meters, Saul finally recognized the other person.
"Manager?" He was a little surprised, and then understood.
It turns out that the steward of the Wizard's Tower, like the librarian and the gardener outside, is not a real person.
After the collapse of the Goltha wizard tower, the gardener was taken away by mentor Kaz. After all, Saul is traveling alone and does not need anyone to tidy up the garden for him.
The wizard tower manager never showed up. Thor thought he had taken advantage of the chaos to leave, or died in a corner.
Unexpectedly, the other party stayed in the black iron coffin.
"Long time no see, Lord Thor. Please allow me to call you 'Lord Tower Master'." The steward performed an elegant chest caressing ceremony. After receiving Thor's consent, he stood up again.
"Currently there is no other butler in the Wizard Tower. You can just call me Hope, or give me a new name."
Asking the master to give me a new name means that Thor has his absolute control.
Hope is nominally the butler of the Wizard Tower, but in reality, he is still its slave.
Thor laughed lightly and said, "So your name is Hope. I was always called the manager before, but I didn't even know your name. This name is quite good. I think you are used to it." He was not interested in naming people
. After confirming Hope's identity, he looked towards the darkness leading to the lower level again.
"It seems that the black iron coffin is down there. There should be other people inside, right?"
"Yes, Lord Tower Master." Butler Hope turned slightly to let go of the not-so-wide stairway.
Hope's movements were like opening a passage.
Two more faces appeared in the darkness.
These two faces were all too familiar to Thor.
It is the middle-aged librarian and the elderly librarian.
"Lord Tower Master..." The middle-aged man was still timid and did not dare to look up at Thor.
"Lord Tower Master." The old man had complicated eyes and a respectful attitude.
At the same time, a third voice also "rang" in Sol's mind.
Agu: [Lord Tower Master. Thor sighed softly, " Now
that the Wizard Tower has reappeared, it's time to restore you to integrity."
He stretched his hands forward, and two translucent gray tentacles stretched out from his left and right palms.
The old man accepted it calmly, and although the middle-aged man was very scared, he did not avoid it at all.
As the other two parts of Agu's soul were sucked into the diary, the black page belonging to him changed again.
The originally rough edges became neat and smooth, and the rough paper became as smooth as silk.
Agu, who had just re-melted his divided soul, or the faceless man Gustav, did not speak anymore, even closed the pages of the book, and stayed quietly in the diary.
"It seems that Agu still needs some time to complete the fusion of souls. Well, after a long separation, it may take some time to fuse again to complete the integration of consciousness and memory." Thor ignored the diary and continued to look into the darkness
.
"Ahem," the housekeeper Hope coughed twice, "what's left are some scattered soul fragments. You, the tower master, are also familiar with them."
Soul fragments?
Thor crossed his arms and said, "I understand. Then don't let them come out yet."
What else could the soul fragments in the wizard's tower be?
Aren't they just those eyes, mouths, and noodle arms?
These guys are really not fit to come out.
It would be better for him to go in and take a look.
Thor lowered his arms and stepped into the darkness.
The butler Hope was one step behind him, following closely behind him.
While Thor was exploring the new wizard tower, the old witch waiting outside was getting impatient.
"What is this kid doing in there? He didn't go in and sleep and left me outside, right?"
Marsh beside him was still growing mushrooms, and he was about to pull out all the mushrooms growing on his body. Only the swaying most solid mushroom above the head did not move.
The old witch, who had nothing to do and no place to move, wanted to go out for a walk, but when she reached the lake, she found that the vine raft that had been parked on the water had disappeared.
"Thor said that you need to take a boat to get to the island, but he didn't say that you also need to leave the island. I can give it a try, but I can't just listen to him. What if his judgment is wrong?" In short, the old witch did not completely believe Sol
. , and she is relatively confident in her own strength. I think that even if I encounter a danger based on rules, there are ways to avoid it.
"Tell your master that I will go and have a look on the lake."
Without waiting for Marsh to reply, the old witch got up and flew into the thick fog.
Another hour passed, and the sky above the gray fog also dimmed.
As night fell, Thor finally came out of the wizard's tower.
After he came out, he could only vaguely see Marsh through the fog, but he did not feel the old witch's mental fluctuations.
He walked over to Marsh, who immediately stood up and bowed.
"Where is the old witch?"
"My lord, she said to go out and have a look."
Sol was not very happy to hear that the old witch was out without permission. He walked to the lake, but the fog was too thick and he could not see where the old witch was.
Thor narrowed his eyes and activated the semi-immersive meditation method.
The world in front of me immediately became much clearer.
Sol saw a small figure spinning in the sky not far from the island in the middle of the lake.
"It seems that my initial speculation was correct. Two rules have been discovered so far. One is that you cannot look directly at things in the water on the lake, and the other is that you need to take a boat to enter and exit the island in the middle of the lake." He looked like a headless fly
. The old witch couldn't fly out of the heavy fog. Sol curled his lips and said, "Xiaozao, you re-form the raft and go over there to bring that trouble back." "Don't be too
anxious. Wait for her to call for help before setting off."
Sol gave a final look. He glanced at the old witch, turned around and took Marsh back to the wizard tower.
