Chapter 558: It’ll be fine soon.
Thor followed these blindfolded people until they reached the depths of the mountain forest.
After twists and turns, a wizard apprentice appeared in front of him.
He stepped forward to check the status of the seven people, and then led them into a cave.
There are two wizards inside the cave. When they see people, they direct them to stand in small pits half a meter high.
Thor was standing outside the cave, his figure hidden behind the rocks.
His mental power is much higher than that of the people inside, and they can't discover Thor's existence at all.
However, the warning circle at the entrance of the cave also prevented Thor from entering directly for the time being.
Thor looked around and saw that the legs of the seven blindfolded men inside had been buried in the soil, and the other wizards were staying away from them.
After a few minutes, one of the blindfolded men showed a look of pain, and gradually the others also twisted in pain.
But after only a few dozen seconds, all the pain on the faces of the seven people disappeared, and their expressions became numb again.
Sol's eyes followed their faces and gradually moved to their legs covered in soil.
"The ants are in the soil... They want these ants to enter their bodies and bite them, leaving formic acid, and then extract the necessary substances from ordinary people's bodies to make Yueling candles." "They extract them here
. Formic acid is not very hidden. In other words, the extraction step is not important. What is really important is how they re-extract the non-toxic formic acid from the bodies of ordinary people and make candles that can activate the brain. ."
The secret of the second extraction must be in the hands of the great witch.
Thor was not prepared to take the risk.
He's not yet at the point where he needs drugs to activate his brain to learn.
Those who really need the soul-reading candle are often those wizards and apprentices who have been stuck at a certain level, have not been promoted for a long time, and have begun to suffer the backlash of knowledge.
Come to think of it, most of the wizards in the Pandi Court he went to today were in this situation.
At this time, the wizards inside were talking softly.
"Why are there so few ants today?"
"Maybe they haven't been too hungry recently."
"Come on. The Great Witch only lets us build seven meat nests at a time. Isn't it just to prevent the ants from moving too much food at once? "
The voice of the conversation quickly dropped.
Sol didn't get any other information, so he simply left here.
"Did the old witch really recognize the humpback termite as the quicksand termite? Although her brain is not very good, her eyesight should be fine." Sol was a little helpless.
If there were no quicksand termites here, his trip would have been in vain, and he would have temporarily lost other clues to the quicksand termites.
If he really couldn't find quicksand termites, he would have to find some alternatives.
It’s just that these alternatives are either dangerous, rarer, and hard to come by.
Thor walked into the ancient forest, thinking about whether to continue searching nearby or go back directly.
Suddenly, his pocket vibrated.
Thor put his hand into his pocket and frowned immediately.
He touched the candle that Kismet had put in.
At the same time, I also touched a piece of paper!
Sol confirmed that there was absolutely no paper in his pocket.
He pulled out his hand and held the paper between his fingers.
There was a sentence written on the piece of paper.
"The golden page is with me. House No. 4, Row 4."
"This guy!" Thor took a deep breath. Kismet definitely did it on purpose.
The importance of a golden page is self-evident. Even if Kismet wants to play any tricks, Thor must pick it up and read it.
He walked quickly outside and soon reached the edge of the woods.
But here he met the boy again.
The other party was hiding behind a tree, looking hesitantly in the direction of the settlement.
"If you go back, you and your father will be dead."
The boy was startled by Thor's voice.
When I turned around and saw it was him, I was relieved.
"Sir, I don't want to go back. I just can't worry about my father and brother... If I leave this time, I may never see them again. Moreover, I entered this settlement with my father when I was very young, I've never left before and don't know where to go."
Saul raised his finger and pointed in a direction, "Go that way and you'll encounter another settlement after two days of walking. Of course, it might just be another prison."
Suo said . I don’t know how these ordinary people entered the Borderlands.
Maybe it's just that the wizards here need some ordinary people to do the most basic labor.
"Sir, may I know your name?" The boy's eyes were full of emotion.
But Thor ignored him.
Past the boy and out of the forest, Thor reentered the settlement before dark.
The old man in the flowerpot recognized Sol.
After all, there weren't many wizards who could let Kismet act as an introducer.
He let Thor in directly.
Sol did not ask the old man in the flowerpot for directions, but found an ordinary person in the settlement.
As soon as these people saw Saul's clothes, they enthusiastically showed him the way, and even wanted to send him there in person, but Saul refused.
Soon he came to room four in row four.
The door here opens with a push and looks like a careless owner has just left.
The room was not big, and when Saul came in he saw a note pinned to the wall opposite.
There were only four words written on it:
It will be ready soon.
Sol's expression changed and he immediately turned around and left.
But as soon as he took one foot out of the room, he heard a scream coming from the street.
Then, the dusk above us suddenly changed color.
Thor walked to the street and looked up to see a huge green arched barrier appearing above the settlement wall.
Some wizards who react quickly use flying skills to rush into the sky.
But before he could get closer, a green smoke suddenly spurted out from the barrier. Spray straight into the wizard's face.
The latter soon screamed and flew back to the ground.
Before anyone could react, another loud noise came.
The sound was so loud that the echo could even be heard in this green protective shield.
Thor flew directly to the roof, and then he saw that the garden he had just visited collapsed!
"What happened over there in the Bendi Court?"
This was almost everyone's question.
Several wizards immediately flew at low altitude, avoiding the green barrier above their heads, and rushed towards the Garden of Paradise.
But Sol's first reaction was to run towards the door immediately.
He already knows what "will be ready soon" means.
Kismet actually wanted to create a golden page here!
But the cause of the golden page is very complicated. Can a small settlement give birth to a golden page?
While thinking, Thor ran.
Although the enemy has not yet appeared, Thor believes in Kismet's ability to cause trouble.
At this moment, a "buzzing" sound suddenly appeared behind him.
The sound was not loud, but it spread throughout the entire settlement.
Thor turned around and saw a huge white ant in mid-air. There were two pairs of wings behind it, flapping rapidly, leaving only an afterimage.
The ant is at least five meters long, and its huge mouthparts can make people feel the cold light above even if they are far apart, and it seems that they will be cut off at the waist in the next second.
If you look closely, you will see that there is a person sitting on top of the ant!
A man with darker skin was sitting at the joint behind the termite's head, holding something in his hand.
Sol squinted his eyes and gradually saw details in the distance.
What the man was holding turned out to be the head of the pot-bellied woman Dolly that Saul had seen before!
