Chapter 155 New Work
Because of the embarrassing Xiaozao, Thor sat in Professor Rum's laboratory for another ten minutes before leaving.
When Xiaozao just appeared from behind his neck, Thor still wondered if the spirit was attached to Xiaozao.
But seeing Xiaozao's later performance, well... he felt that this option could be ruled out.
Before leaving, Nick told Thor that his share of the mission reward had been collected by Byron.
Saul can ask Byron for it at his dormitory anytime.
Because Thor was only a first-level apprentice when he took on this mission and was only registered for an assisting mission, Byron could collect his share of the mission reward on his behalf.
Even if it is not returned to Thor afterwards, the registration office will not care.
But this is actually the thing that Thor is least anxious about.
Senior Byron helped him not only once, but also saved his life twice. Even if all these contributions were given to Byron, Saul didn't care.
What's more, the biggest gain of this mission is here with Thor.
All the knowledge of two third-level apprentices and a second-level wizard is stored in the diary.
Even if they lost some of their memories due to death, the remaining ones would constitute a huge knowledge base for Thor!
This time, Thor has accumulated quite a lot of soul fragments, so he doesn't have to worry about the three black papers not having enough soul energy, causing the consciousness stored in them to quickly dissipate.
For a wizard, nothing is more important than knowledge.
The excitement of the harvest made Thor temporarily forget the trouble of a dark shadow following him. He went to the registration office to change his name tag, and then went to the morgue on the second floor of the East Tower.
Before leaving the tower, he informed Mentor Kaz that he might be away for two months.
Because Senior Byron was also an apprentice of Mentor Kaz, he was not angry because Thor had to temporarily put down his work in the morgue. He just went to choose someone from the newcomers who entered the Wizard Tower in the past two years to temporarily replace Thor's job.
Now that Thor has returned early, he naturally has to take over the work again.
Thor originally thought that there would be no one in the morgue at this time in the morning, but when he pushed open the scarlet door of the morgue, he saw two figures standing in the middle of the morgue.
Chlom, a newcomer who had just entered the wizard tower a year ago, was dancing with a female corpse that was a head taller than him.
The two people were dressed neatly and their movements were coordinated. Even though there was no music, they were still very immersed in the performance.
If the woman hadn't been headless, Thor wouldn't have been able to discover the identity of the guest.
"Chlom." He interrupted the wonderful atmosphere.
"Ah, Senior Thor." Chrom, who had red curly hair, stopped dancing. She didn't seem embarrassed at all about being seen and greeted Thor with a smile.
He asked the female guest to take off her long skirt and lie back on the conveyor belt.
"Is this your witchcraft?" Thor had never seen such witchcraft before, and it didn't seem like the kind of witchcraft that a first-level apprentice could master.
Like a shy boy, Kulom scratched his nose and said, "It's actually a magic trick, plus a little bit of my talent."
The gorgeous dress fell to the ground and turned into an old bed sheet.
"Talent?" If it was just a magic trick, Thor could do it easily.
But making the corpse obey commands and move so flexibly does not seem to be something that can be done by 1st or 2nd level witchcraft.
"Companion fairy."
An old and hoarse voice sounded behind them. They both turned around and saw Mentor Kaz walking in with his hands behind his back.
"Such a talent is rare. It is said that he was blessed by the goblins when he was born." Kaz smiled and said, "Of course, some people say it is a curse."
Even after hearing the word curse, Chlom's obedient expression remained unchanged.
Thor was somewhat interested in the companion fairy. "Companion fairy, I seem to have seen it in a book."
"The companion fairy is a transparent fairy that is invisible to ordinary people. It is small in size and wanders between reality and fantasy. The weak ones can only slightly affect reality, while the strong ones can pull people into the fantasy world." Chrom took the initiative to explain the meaning of the companion fairy to Thor.
Finally, he stretched out his hand, raised it in front of Thor, and said with a smile: "This is my companion fairy. Senior Thor, look, isn't it cute?"
Looking at the empty palm in front of him and the boy looking at him sincerely, Thor suddenly understood the meaning of the word "green tea".
Thor's expression remained unchanged. He closed his eyes and then half-opened them.
This time, a green slime monster appeared in the palm of his hand which was originally empty.
It looks a bit like slime, but it's not cute at all.
Even though he couldn't smell anything, Thor felt as if a stench from a sewer was coming into his nose.
Thor leaned back slightly, "You have quite unique taste."
The smile on Chrom's face disappeared.
At this time, Kaz said, "Okay, since Thor has been promoted to level two, let Chlom take over the work here."
Thor looked at Mentor Kaz in surprise, "Mentor?"
"Come with me."
Mentor Kaz walked out with his hands behind his back.
Thor turned back and told Chlom, "I'll get the stuff later."
Coulom was not at all excited about having successfully snatched the job.
He stood there blankly, and nodded with a pale face, "Okay, Thor...Senior."
Thor chased out of the morgue and saw Kaz walking deeper into the corridor.
Although he was curious about the depths of the corridor, he had never gone in.
Only the big man in charge of cleaning the morgue would push the cart into the depths of the corridor.
As the two of them went deeper and deeper, a darkness that was almost tangible gradually enveloped them.
The pale candlelight could not dispel all the darkness around me.
The corridor behind me gradually became unclear, and a sense of horror that there was no return arose spontaneously.
"We're here. This is the first floor of the East Tower." Instructor Kaz in front finally stopped and said quietly.
The first floor of the East Tower? Thor began to doubt his memory.
Just now...did they come downstairs? "Stand next to me."
Thor took a few steps forward as instructed and stood shoulder to shoulder with Mentor Kaz.
When he stopped, he was surprised to find a big door appeared in front of him.
This is a dark blue door made of a special metal. Even if you are one meter away, you can still feel the cold air coming from the door.
A special magic circle with a hexagram as the background was painted on the gate. At first glance, it looked very similar to the magic circle on the wall of the sixth floor of the East Tower, but the internal structure was much more complicated.
"You can only open one door at a time. If both doors are open, remember to stand still and don't move until the door is closed again."
After Kaz finished speaking, he pushed open the right half of the door and walked in with Thor.
The temperature inside the gate is several degrees lower than outside.
What comes into view is a corridor about ten meters long, and at the end of the corridor there is a metal door, but it is narrower.
As Thor walked in, goose bumps appeared on the two remaining halves of his arms.
He tightened his collar and said, "Teacher, what is this place?"
"You can think of this as another morgue, except the bodies and materials here are different."
The two continued forward and pushed open the second metal door without mentioning any taboos here.
The room behind the metal door was covered with a light white mist.
There were boxes stacked up around the room, the same boxes that were used to store materials in all the morgues.
Kaz kept walking, "Does it look familiar? Some of these materials were contributed by you."
"It's just that they could have been more, couldn't they?"
Kaz glanced at Thor, who turned his head away guiltily.
They passed through the second door and two corridors stretched out in front of them.
"This will be your new workplace. Now you have two choices, one is to work at the exit, and the other is to work at the entrance."
Kaz told Thor that the person who connects at the entrance is usually a third-level apprentice, while the person who connects at the exit is usually a mentor.
Thor opened his mouth and his voice caught in his throat.
A third-level apprentice? A mentor? If I remember correctly, he has been a second-level apprentice for less than ten days? (End of this chapter)
