Chapter 1015: Heart of Killing
After getting Thor's promise, Douglas' eyes flashed with a smile.
It's a sense of control over everything.
He looked to the north, and the existence of the Eye of the Abyss was as eye-catching in Douglas' eyes as the sun in the sky.
However, this eye-catching existence was now shrouded in a deadly aura.
If we observe it from the perspective of weaving the thread of death, the abyss is simply a ball of wool made of death.
The messy threads spread out from the deepest part of the sea, like a drowning traveler, trying hard to grab all the duckweed it could see.
Douglas withdrew his gaze. Since the wizard here wanted to pour another bottle of poison into the abyss to accelerate death, he could cooperate.
Anyway, the abyss has already begun to move, and death is dancing at the intersection of worlds.
Douglas could already vaguely see where the world was heading.
Although he prefers to observe the demise of the Eye of the Abyss, in the end, no matter who survives and who dies completely, it will be beneficial to Douglas.
But secretly, he was actually looking forward to the third outcome, which was why he had been so careful to hide his identity and balance the strength and cards of both sides.
Oh, by the way, there is another very important prop.
Douglas looked at Thor, who looked back warily.
He suddenly spoke up, breaking the standoff, "I found an interesting structure underneath the island."
"That's the Mechanical Heart. It's the power source that allows this sky city to float high in the sky." Thor shared the information he knew, "But its energy source is quite special. All the low-level wizards who died will become nutrients."
After Thor finished speaking, the three people opposite him did not show any surprise.
Gorza and Flim obviously knew this.
But for Douglas, sacrificing low-level wizards was just an inefficient method that he despised.
"I see, but it's no use," Douglas said bluntly.
Of course it's useless.
Perhaps Ophelia had originally intended to use the Mechanical Heart to complete the ceremony of advancing to the fifth level, but later she changed direction and chose to transform herself into a water elf to advance to the fifth level.
It’s a pity that a fourth-level wizard is still unable to completely change a living being, so she had to give up again.
After that, Ophelia disappeared somewhere.
When he is not in seclusion in Sky City, he can't be seen anywhere else in the world.
It's as if he was hiding on purpose.
Douglas didn't care about the original owner of Sky City. "I'm not sure I can mislead the Eye of the Abyss. But I have some understanding of death, so I can use this information to make some changes here."
Flim frowned slightly, and did not comment on Douglas's choice. However, he was here to help, so he had no say here.
But Gorza was not as polite as Flim, "I don't know much about the power of death. If you want to design it like this, I may not be able to help you."
Douglas said nonchalantly, "You can follow my instructions or do something on your own. This place is so big anyway."
He apparently didn't care if Golza joined or not.
Golsa chuckled and turned to ask Thor: "I plan to try it myself, what about you?"
Unexpectedly, Thor said, "I also know a little about the Death Weaving Thread, so I will study it together with Wizard Douglas."
Gorza raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't expect that Saul would choose to cooperate with Douglas.
But even if the little apprentice did not stand on his side, it would not affect Gorza's decision. "Then you guys take your time. I'm going to go take a look at the White Glazed Castle."
After saying that, Gorsa ignored everyone else and disappeared in a flash.
Saul didn't even look at Golsa who was leaving, and said directly to Douglas: "Shall we start now?"
Douglas looked at Thor meaningfully, "Don't play tricks on me."
Thor shrugged. "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that we will overdo it and kill the Eye of the Abyss?"
Douglas then retracted his gaze and said, "Let's go down."
As soon as he finished speaking, Thor felt as if he was stretched into a thin thread. After circling in the air, he suddenly went down and drilled into the soil.
The same is true for Flim next to him.
They were half-carried by Douglas into the Mechanical Heart.
They encountered layers of magical restrictions along the way, but they were almost useless in front of Douglas.
Douglas broke through the entire Sky City's defenses as easily as if he had casually poked through a few layers of gauze.
It was not until this moment that Thor realized the spatial advantage of a fifth-level wizard.
The opponent did not actually break through the defensive witchcraft formation, but directly bypassed the defense on another level.
After coming to the wizarding world, the other party seemed finally willing to show a little bit of the power of a fifth-level wizard.
Thor only felt that the originally three-dimensional world seemed to have turned into a two-dimensional plane in an instant, and he became a point that jumped out of the plane.
The point jumps so quickly in the space outside the plane that the shadow becomes a line.
This gave Thor the illusion that he was being stretched.
But in fact he was compressed.
In the blink of an eye, Thor was standing inside the Mechanical Heart again.
This experience is also different from entering the colorful world. But the underlying principles seem to be similar. They both jump out of the original level.
Just like Thor's fate line. It was clearly hovering above the Sky City and was still growing. But when Thor didn't want to show up, even Douglas couldn't see the existence of the fate line.
"Jump out of the original level, world, and cognition?"
Thor stood in the room of the Mechanical Heart for a long time without moving, until Douglas pulled the core of the Mechanical Heart directly from the roof and threw it in front of several people, then he came to his senses.
"I'm going to transform this thing into a killing heart."
Flim raised his hand and sent a ball of light into the mechanical heart. Soon the ball of light returned to his palm and went inside.
"I felt a very regular life force. But this law was too simple and crude, causing its life to be as rigid as a machine."
Douglas said: "So it's a useless thing. It can only be recycled."
As he spoke, some black shadows appeared on his body and pounced into the Mechanical Heart with bared fangs and claws.
A flesh-colored, foamy paste immediately emerged from all the holes and tubes of the iron-gray mechanical heart.
These disgusting objects flowed to the ground, emitting a fragrance like freshly baked white bread.
"There's quite a bit of deathly smell in here." Thor raised his hand and waved it in front of his nose. He didn't like the smell.
"That's why it's suitable to be transformed into the Heart of Killing." Douglas said, "Let's start now. The two of you..."
Douglas began to command the two men without any hesitation.
Gorsa, who was walking in the White Glazed Castle, stood with his hands behind his back and came to the throne where Ophelia had sat.
A few days ago, Thor was also waiting here for Ophelia's response.
Gorsa patted the hard stone seat and shook his head, obviously not liking this hard chair.
But he turned around and sat on it anyway.
As soon as he sat down, Gorza found a small soul fragment squeezed out from the middle of the chair back, and then seemed to sense the familiar Gorza and sank into the back of his head.
