Chapter 480 The Hidden Monster

On the way back to the temporary residence, Thor was very depressed after confirming that the scorpion tail that was stored in the diary had been destroyed and absorbed.

In the past, Thor always removed the scorpion tail needle and then put An in the diary. But today, the situation was urgent and An suddenly lost control, which made Thor wonder if the pollution attached to the scorpion tail affected An's mind during the battle.

In addition, there was a root monster under his feet that might continue to attack, so Thor could only deal with An's problem as quickly as possible and take him away.

However, compared to the loss of the scorpion's tail needle, the sudden attack on An by the root monster was more serious.

Those roots look thin and soft, but they are actually very tough and cannot be cut by ordinary weapons.

And when he saw that An's scorpion tail had no effect on the roots, his brows furrowed even more.

That root is not afraid of being contaminated by evil spirits.

The most important thing is... it's just roots. What is connected to the roots? Is it the big tree that Kismet wanted to "give" him?

After hurriedly returning to the temporary residence, Agu hurriedly came up to him, "Master, why did you come back so suddenly?"

Thor told Agu what happened in the woods today.

At this time, An also recovered.

"Ann, why did you suddenly lose control just now?" Thor asked her.

An wrote it down in his diary, still feeling a little dazed.

[I'm not really sure, I just felt that there were suddenly a lot more thoughts in my mind... There seemed to be something disgusting in those tree roots.]

“Tree roots, are you sure it’s tree roots?”

[Well, when I was unconscious, I could vaguely feel that the plant behind the roots was a big tree.]

"Can you find out exactly where the tree is?"

[No, the tree was far away from me, and I was not fully awake at the time.]

At this time, Hermann, who was watching on the side, said with some fear.

[These roots are so powerful. If that big tree appears, wouldn't it be possible for them to reach the second level of strength? ]

Agu, who was sitting next to Thor, shook his head. "Master encountered a root monster in the city and also in the suburbs outside the city. It would be fine if the monster could move, but if it can't move..."

Morton supplemented Agu's unfinished words in his diary.

If the tree cannot be moved, the extent of its roots is too great.

Thor understood what they meant. Judging from the strength of the roots and the range of the roots, the tree might be able to rival the combat power of a city.

If a city can be destroyed in one fell swoop, doesn't that mean that the tree has already reached the third level of strength? Thinking of this, Thor immediately had the urge to leave here.

But after thinking about it, he didn't really run away.

The city of Archaeoster was built more than one or two years ago, and there is no rumor that any wizard has gotten into trouble because of tree monsters.

Besides, it was normal for a monster to appear in the wizarding world. Could he choose a safe place to stay? There were no enough witchcraft materials for Thor to study in such a place.

Thor took a deep breath and said, "It is still unclear why the tree monster attacked An. An should not go out casually during this period. The same goes for you, Agu. I will go to Baidong College to inquire about the news."

Thor did what he said and went straight to find Char.

People like Char who always think that others will harm them usually don't like to go out. Thor went directly to the door to find someone.

As expected, Char was at home, but this time he didn't let Thor in.

"...Tree roots?" Xia was stunned for a moment before hesitatingly saying, "I heard that there was a big tree in Archaeological Site, but that tree was burned down many years ago."

"Burned?" Thor suspected that the tree was not burned. "Then has there never been a case of plant roots attacking people before?"

Char spread his hands. "In Archaic, anything can attack people, plants, animals, monsters... Even if there were roots that attacked people before, we can't be sure if they were the roots of the same plant."

Thor thought for a moment and asked again: "Why are there so many evil spirits in Archaoste? Is there no other way to prevent them besides capturing them?"

When asked this question, Xia's expression was a little strange. He licked the corner of his mouth and said in a low voice: "If you really want to know, just ask Dean Pound. Archaeological Site has become prosperous now because of Dean Pound's initiative."

He stood in the shadow under the eaves, his expression gloomy, "To get something, you always have to pay a price, right?"

Char should know some truth, but he is obviously unwilling to tell Thor.

After Thor left, he actually followed Char's advice and went to see Dean Pound.

But he did not ask about the cause of the abnormality in the ancient city of St. Archaeology. Even if he asked, Dean Pound would not tell him.

Thor took advantage of the incident in which he was attacked in the suburbs to ask the dean whether there was any new progress in the research on the root monster.

He noticed that Dean Pound looked panicked for a moment when he heard that the root monster appeared in the suburbs.

However, the other party quickly concealed his panic into surprise, and expressed his suspicion that the monster that appeared in the underground sewer last time had left the city.

He told Thor that he could tell Kent what happened. Kent was responsible for the evil spirits that were difficult for the sweepers to handle. He would gather people, share intelligence, and organize people to focus on conquering the evil spirits that were difficult for a small number of wizards to resist.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After Thor learned about this, he asked casually, "Has Kent always been responsible for the evil spirit incident?"

The dean told Thor that it was another wizard before, but after that wizard died unexpectedly in a battle with evil spirits, Kent took over.

After Kent took over, very few wizards died in battles with evil spirits.

Dean Pound told Saul that if he found any threat, he could tell Kent, and he was still very enthusiastic.

A wizard? Zealous?

Thor thanked the dean on the surface, but actually left Baidong College with mixed feelings.

Now he was basically certain that the dean knew about the root monster. It was even possible that Dean Pound was the one who cultivated the root monster!

Last time, he specifically called Thor to the bell tower and showed him the roots trapped in the test tube. It was very likely that he was testing how much he knew about root monsters.

Test whether he has got part of the root system.

The witch Beth who appeared in the bell tower at that time should also be related to this hidden monster.

There are many wizards in Archaoste, and Thor is not the only outsider. The reason they are so wary of Thor is probably because they are worried about Gorsa who is behind him.

This also indirectly shows that the trouble hidden in Baidong College cannot be solved by a formal wizard.

After this incident, Thor did not behave abnormally. He even participated in the Sweeper's missions more frequently in order to collect new evil spirits.

Although the scorpion tail needle was accidentally consumed without being able to accomplish any task, it also proved that there was nothing wrong with Thor's idea of ​​soul armament.

He wanted to take advantage of his time in Archaster to collect as many evil spirit fragments as possible, and it would be best if he could arm all four consciousnesses!

During this period, perhaps because his several "complaints" aroused the vigilance of the people in the dark, he never encountered the root monster again.

At the same time, after several actions, Thor also discovered that when an evil spirit is just born, it can be subdued in the easiest way.

Since new evil spirits are always born in Archaeoster, Thor can completely leave the guard team and find new evil spirits on his own.

So, Nightmare Butterfly Penny was sent out by Thor to search for abnormal spirits breeding in dark corners every night.

But what Thor didn't expect was that the first person to bring him the news of the new evil spirit was not Penny, but Xiao Zao!

Chapter 2 It was still night time, and I was so exhausted from going out.
