Chapter 159 Whatever you fear will come true
At this time, the flamboyant man who came in first stopped and looked back at Billy.
"You don't care if your brother dies?"
Billy, however, continued to walk in without caring at all, and found a document to look through, "It's up to you to take care of it."
The first man hit a snag, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he asked the visitor with interest, "Is there anything new in the tower in the past six months?"
"Jero, do you want to know who else died?" The female apprentice walked over with a charming smile and put her elbow on Jero's shoulder.
Jero pushed the woman's arm down with a finger. "Come on, Rita. I only sleep with the dead."
The third-level female apprentice named Rita rolled her eyes and said, "Apart from Bill's death, there hasn't been anything major happening recently. Oh, and Byron and Wright, who were traveling with him, brought back a sailboat. I heard they exchanged it for a lot of credits."
Jero's eyes lit up immediately. "Sailboat? I like it. How many dead people would it take to buy it?"
"You need to hurry up then," Rita said. "A lot of people are interested in sailboats."
At this time, the third person came in, took off his hood, revealing a beautiful lower face and a glass skull filled with white paste.
The two third-level apprentices who were originally in the activity room immediately stopped talking and turned around to do their own things.
Kong Sha ignored everyone else, twisted her waist, walked to a notice board in the activity room, and looked at the name on it.
Jero followed Kongsha with interest and walked over.
This sign lists the names of apprentices who are responsible for some important work in the tower.
Every time Kong Sha came back from outside, she would come here to look at all the names.
In the past, she would just leave after reading, but today, one of her eyes stared at a name for a long time without moving.
Then more eyeballs popped up, all focused on one point.
Jero followed Kong Sha's gaze and read out the name.
"Second Warehouse: Thor." He touched his chin. "I've never heard of this name. Is he a third-level apprentice who joined from outside? I really want to meet him."
"I advise you not to provoke him, hehe."
Someone else walked into the activity room.
The people who came in this time were Luo Kai, the president of the mutual aid association, and Ku Jin, a tall and strong man who had just lost his job.
The person who spoke was Luo Kai.
Jero and Kongsha turned around at the same time, but Kongsha had a blank expression on her face, while Jero looked more interested.
"Oh? Could it be that he is a guy with a background like you?"
Luo Kai was not angry at being mocked, "It's just that we can't find out any identity or background, which makes people feel more terrible."
He pointed his thumb at Ku Jin beside him and said, "Now, he has just been promoted to level 2 for less than half a month, and he has already taken over Ku Jin's job."
"Humph!" The male apprentice with Rita suddenly stood up and said with a look of surprise, "Can second-level apprentices enter the activity room at will now?"
Kong Sha ignored him, retracted her gaze, turned around and quickly left the activity room.
If the people present knew her, they would probably think that Kong Sha left because she was afraid of the wrath of the third-level apprentice.
Luo Kai spread his hands and smiled, "Level 2 apprentices are led by Level 3 apprentices and can enter the activity room. Senior Ferguson, have you forgotten?"
Ferguson immediately stepped forward angrily.
Luo Kai didn't dodge, but Ku Jin raised his hand to block Ferguson.
Ferguson looked at the hand blocking his way with cold eyes. He did not move forward. He turned to Kujin and said, "First, your job was taken away by a second-level apprentice, and now you are serving as a bodyguard for a second-level apprentice. I think you are going backwards. Don't even think about becoming a formal wizard in the future. Just be a dog for others!"
"You!" Ku Jin's face turned red and he was about to take action.
But Ferguson simply walked around them and left the activity room.
Ku Jin looked around, and although no one showed a mocking expression, he still felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm leaving. You stay here by yourself." Ku Jin said and left quickly.
Luo Kai was not angry when he was left in the activity room. He just shrugged and sighed, "They have such a good relationship."
Rita, who had just looked down on Kong Sha, came over at this moment, raised her chin, and asked, "Have you got everything I want?"
Luo Kai's smile became brighter. "Of course, we are a mutual aid association. If Senior Sister Rita is willing to join, I can give you a discount."
Rita raised an eyebrow, "How much cheaper?"
Luo Kai gave a number.
Rita said nonchalantly, "Then join."
The two men immediately began to trade, but Jero once again turned his eyes to the sign.
"Thor?" He looked interested.
…
Back in the wizard tower, the days and diary became full again.
Study, experiment, work...oh, the work hasn't officially started yet.
In the two days since he took over the work of the second warehouse, the feather pen has never been moved.
Because of the disgusting dream he had on the first night after returning, Thor was a little afraid and didn't sleep again. He meditated instead.
He didn't want to get into any weird troubles as soon as he returned to the wizard tower.
This dream also reminded Thor that the cocoon of the nightmare butterfly was now about to declare its presence.
Saul had dreams that foreshadowed danger, but they were all about himself. He had never dreamed of a murder scene.
And it's the scene seen from the murderer's perspective.
This instantly reminded him of the nightmare butterfly, the cocoon that had actively run to his left eye.
The little girl wore the cocoon for four years, but other than allowing her to see other people's dreams, there were no other obvious effects.
Therefore, Thor did not take the danger of this cocoon seriously.
But the experience of the first night back in the tower clearly told Thor that the cocoon of the Nightmare Butterfly had produced some changes in his body.
"Do you want to take it out?"
Thor found a mirror and used a sterilized needle to poke at his eyes twice.
But before taking action, he hesitated again.
Although the dream was disgusting, it did not cause any harm to Thor.
Thor was worried that if he took out the cocoon, but the cocoon ran back to his right eye before he finished sealing it, what would he do? He couldn't play hide-and-seek with this guy with his own body.
"Maybe I should find a helper." The needle spun between Thor's fingers, then stopped, "Hayden!"
Before Thor left the tower, Hayden was a first-level apprentice.
But he had worked in the morgue for nearly a decade and was very good at human anatomy and material preservation.
Thor plans to ask Hayden to help him remove the Nightmare Butterfly.
As long as he stays awake throughout the operation, he doesn't have to worry about Hayden making any secret moves.
After all, Thor is now a second-level apprentice, and his strength and magic power are far beyond Hayden.
Thor did it as he thought. He picked up the surgical tools prepared for him and stood up to find Hayden.
But at this moment, his chest suddenly lit up.
The light came from his heart and was a very soft, warm light source.
Thor lowered his head and put his hand on his chest.
Although he had never seen this kind of light, he knew what it was in an instant.
Soul-guiding oil lamp!
Thor slowly turned his head and saw his own lowered head.
He smiled bitterly, "Sure enough, the tower master gave me this oil lamp, which has already made it clear that my soul may leave my body again."
Since this was not the first time, Thor was not as panicked as before.
He followed the same method as last time, walking with his back to his body, ready to find the point farthest from his body.
But after walking a few steps, Thor found that the distance he had walked seemed to have exceeded the longest distance he had walked last time.
Thor looked back and his body didn't move.
It is true that the diameter of the circle has become longer.
Thor raised his hand to cover his forehead. "Why is it that every time I learn a little new knowledge, a deeper unknown affects me? Doesn't it give me any time to breathe?"
There was no use lamenting or complaining, Thor could only solve the problem at hand first.
He continued to move forward, looking for new boundaries.
As he took the next step, the world in front of Thor suddenly accelerated as if it was fast-forwarded 16 times, and then stopped suddenly, and a door appeared in front of him.
That was the third door leading into the warehouse and also the innermost metal door.
Everything in front of him was moving up and down, left and right, forward and backward, making Thor feel nauseous.
"Did I...teleport?"
This was Thor's first reaction, but when he wanted to move again, he found that he could only stand there, unable to move.
"What's going on?"
He couldn't even lower his head to look at the soul-guiding oil lamp on his chest, so Thor could only look straight ahead.
At this moment, the metal door was suddenly pushed open.
Ku Jin, a tall man with an unhappy look on his face, walked in.
"Kujin? How could he get in?"
As a former warehouse manager, Ku Jin has lost the ability to enter doors at will.
This place is different from the morgue. The magic formation on the metal door is the door lock, and now the "key" is in Thor's hands.
Before Thor could get nervous, a skinny man followed Kujin in.
After seeing the man clearly, Thor's eyes froze in shock.
That's him.
Thor saw himself following behind Ku Jin and walked into the second warehouse with a curious look on his face! (End of this chapter)
