Chapter 182
"Who brought them back?" Thor asked in surprise.
The two men died in Chuishou Valley, at the hands of the evil spirit Morton. At that time, there were pursuers behind them, and they left in a hurry, and had no time to collect their bodies.
He didn't expect that he would see the two again.
"It's probably Mochi Mochi. He lives in the Black Castle Forest on the border. When you go out in the future, you can go to his place to rest."
Mochi Mochi is the man who is very thin and lives in a very thin place.
I didn't expect that he could bring the body back from such a dangerous Chuishou Valley.
However, these two bodies looked somewhat different from when they were alive.
It is not a difference caused by livor mortis, gigantism, etc., but a subtle change.
Hermann's skin became very rough. Only when you look closer can you see that Hermann's skin did not become rough, but that there were many tiny pores on his skin.
It's like someone has poke small holes in the orange peel with a silver needle, but you can still see the obvious difference if you look closely.
"Is this... something coming out from under his skin?"
Heywood smiled slightly. "It's a silver metal. You should have seen it before. But the body was severely deformed after precipitation. In order to make the collection beautiful, I had to find some other materials to pour it in."
Heywood knocked on the transparent coffin-like box and said, "It's not completely dry inside yet. Please be careful when moving it."
Thor opened the lid of the box, pulled out a metal rod from his arms, and gently pressed the back of Herman's hand.
A milky white mucus emerged from the small holes on the back of his hand, but when Thor retracted the metal rod, the mucus slowly seeped back in.
"The exudation rate is quite high. I'd better let it air out before putting it in the pile of corpses." Thor said, then looked at Bill's corpse. "Bill's corpse...is there anything I should pay attention to?"
Heywood said: "His problem is not serious. Mentor Gudo has helped neutralize the toxins in his body, but he still needs..."
He was halfway through his words when a gust of air suddenly pushed open a gap between Bill's lips.
"puff--"
"...let out the air." Heywood said the rest of the words without changing his expression.
Thor: “…”
"Okay, I'll let this hang out for a bit as well."
The two men took out the handover documents, and now the two freshly processed collections were officially placed in the second warehouse.
Heywood nodded with satisfaction, and saw that Thor had already pushed the two transparent boxes and turned around to leave.
At this moment, a crack appeared in the hood behind him, and a pair of eyes shining with excitement appeared from inside.
But her excitement didn't last long.
"Where are your eyes?" A hoarse female voice came from behind Haywood, sounding quite angry.
Before Thor could say anything, Heywood smiled and said, "Need I tell you? Of course I hid it."
Haywood turned to Thor and said, "Of course, if you change your mind at any time, we can still continue the transaction...the beautiful eyes that you have hidden."
Haywood smiled and stepped back, leaving the second warehouse.
"Did this Haywood recognize the Nightmare Butterfly, or did he realize that the cocoon was very valuable?" Thor could only be more vigilant in the face of the other party's magical observation ability.
He carried Bill and Herman's bodies into the warehouse.
Because the two new collections were not stable enough, Thor still kept them in transparent boxes.
"It's really interesting. The consciousness of these two people is with me, and now their bodies have been delivered to me, so they can be reunited."
Just as Thor lamented the fickleness of fate, a chill suddenly passed through his body and rushed towards the two new collections.
White frost began to form on Thor's eyebrows and hair.
He quickly took two steps back to avoid the sudden cold current, and then he felt that the temperature around him had returned to normal.
Just now, it seemed as if something had penetrated into the bodies of the two people from the air from all directions.
"It doesn't look like a simple drop in temperature. Is it a spirit?" Thor entered into semi-immersive meditation and scanned the two newcomers, but found nothing. "The cold air seems to have disappeared. The change just now ended before I could observe it. Next time if there are newcomers coming, I must remember to observe the changes in the spirit."
Thor was thinking and taking notes.
It was almost the time agreed with Kong Sha, so Saul temporarily interrupted his observation of the two new collections.
He came between the shelves, under item number 117.
When he was tidying up the warehouse before, he checked all the numbered items one by one.
Some of these things look scary and dangerous, while others look like the most common things around us.
"Number 117, Elf Whisper." Thor carefully took a bottle filled with semi-transparent liquid from the shelf.
There was a branch standing obliquely in the bottle, with a portion of liquid exposed at the top of the branch and two tender green leaves stretching out at the top.
It looks full of life, small and cute.
The spirit whisper is actually the branch in the bottle, excluding the bottle outside and the liquid in the bottle.
These two things are actually used to seal the whispers of elves.
In the warehouse manual, the warning for No. 117 is: "Do not pour out the liquid in the bottle, and do not take the branch out of the bottle. Once the above two rules are violated, you must immediately notify Instructor Kaz or Lord Gorsata. If a species with white skin, golden eyes and long ears appears in front of you, you must not actively communicate with it!"
In addition, the manual does not record how to use the Whisper of the Elf, but Kongsha must have her own way, so Thor doesn't need to worry about it.
Their agreement was: Thor would move the items to the inside of the bronze gate, open the door when the time came, let Kongsha in and use Elf Whisper for one minute, and Kongsha would leave immediately after the time was up.
The most dangerous thing for Thor is the process of transporting the Elf Whispers back and forth.
However, Thor is no longer the first-level apprentice who had no ability to resist.
Who didn't violate some prohibitions when they were a student?
Therefore, after making sure that the diary contained no clues, Thor placed the bottle containing the elf whispers on the cart.
When leaving, he also picked up a small hourglass timer.
He only planned to give Kong Sha one minute to avoid any other accidents.
Somewhat to Thor's surprise, he pushed the cart all the way to the bronze gate smoothly without encountering any trouble.
Thor took out his small hourglass timer and waited for 7:55.
It was already 7:53, so he didn't have to wait too long.
The waiting time passed very slowly.
Thor tapped the handle of the cart with his index finger, becoming increasingly irritated.
After he tapped 60 times, he looked down at the hourglass again.
It’s still 7:53…
"Is my perception of time wrong, or is there something wrong with the hourglass?"
Thor turned his head away and counted to sixty again, but when he lowered his head, he found that the hourglass was still stopped at 53 minutes.
"Something must be wrong." Thor looked at the green branches in the cart. "I didn't touch the branches, nor did I open the bottle. As expected, just moving its position will also have some impact."
Thor calmed down, trying to drive away the inexplicable irritation in his heart, and just stood there and entered a state of meditation.
During meditation, he discovered that his spiritual body had indeed experienced some abnormal fluctuations, but he did not notice it at all. Fortunately, the fluctuations were not severe and he could recover through meditation.
Thor quickly calmed down the shock of his mental body and looked down at the time. It was 7:56.
He immediately let go of the cart, walked to the bronze door and pushed it open.
Outside the door, Kong Sha, with half of her face covered by a cloak, stood in the dark corridor with her head down.
The darkness continued to squeeze her body, as if trying to drive the woman away from the first floor of the East Tower.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, the woman standing like a statue raised her head and said, "You are a minute late. What happened?"
