Chapter 195: The worms have
arrived, can death be far behind?
All this is like a pantomime in front of Thor's eyes, but the terrifying effect it brings has not been reduced in the slightest.
His mind began to work rapidly as he stared at the diary in front of him.
This time the diary entry states that he died in the stomach of a bug, and that the bug was chasing after Thor's scent.
"No, considering the previous diary, the danger I stayed away from should be Victor. The last time I died was because of the white worm."
The white worm, as fat as an elephant, slowly twisted its body and turned to Swann.
His body made an unpleasant friction sound against the ground, like something being crushed by a millstone.
The front of his face that he revealed also startled Thor. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and almost screamed out.
The front of the worm actually had a human face! The face looked pale and wrinkled, as if it had been blistered or blown up by a balloon.
One by one, his eyes turned gray, as if someone had inserted a needle into them and stirred them violently a few times, making the lens completely cloudy.
His nostrils were also enlarged so that a child's head could fit in them.
When he opened his mouth wide towards Swann, Thor saw not teeth but several rolling heads in his throat.
Those people stared at the outside world with blank eyes, and no one struggled.
Swann also saw the heads.
As he looked into those pairs of numb eyes, Swann stopped shouting.
He already knew that all his struggles were in vain. He opened his mouth, his lips trembling slightly, and muttered something, praying to someone unknown.
Thor was only watching the man and the insect from a few meters away, but he could feel Swan's despair.
The diary also reminds Thor that if he encounters a bug, with the means available, the end result will definitely be that he will be swallowed by the bug.
Thor couldn't help but clench his fingers.
However, the big mouth that was about to bite Swan stopped at the last moment.
The nostrils of the human-faced worm kept expanding and shrinking, expanding and shrinking...
The foamy head actually let Swan go and turned towards Thor little by little.
But the human-faced worm's neck was very stiff, and it could not move anymore after turning about 90 degrees.
"It has a blind spot!" Thor realized this immediately and quickly moved to the back of the human-faced worm.
Here, no matter how the worm turned its head, it could not see him.
Moreover, the worm moves slowly and cannot turn as flexibly as Thor.
But Thor also understood that if it were really that simple, the diary would not have warned Thor of death in the belly of the worm.
After the human-faced worm tried several times but failed to see Thor, its ugly face suddenly shrank inward and disappeared directly into a pile of fat white meat.
Thor immediately ran towards the stairs, and on the steps, Victor, who was tied up by Xiaozao but not panicked, was staring at Thor.
There was even a hint of smile in his eyes.
Sure enough, Thor saw from the corner of his eye that the worm's tail began to wriggle, and the milky white, oily body quickly melted and reshaped, and the human face that had disappeared from the worm's head actually emerged from the tail and faced Thor.
Looking closely, the face looked like it had been soaked in water for several days, full of cracks and wrinkles, and a greasy smell rushed straight into Thor's nostrils.
This strange smell even made Thor, who was already used to the stench of corpses, feel nauseous.
The human-faced worm sniffed again at Thor who was stuck at the corner of the stairs, and an excited expression appeared on his face.
"Hey~Hey~Hey"
The human-faced worm actually laughed. No one knew which organ was vibrating, but it made an extremely distorted laugh.
His nostrils kept opening and closing, sniffing Thor in ecstasy.
In the slightly open and closed mouth of the human-faced worm, Thor could still clearly see several numb human faces inside, rolling constantly as the worm's muscles contracted.
Thor wanted to attack the bugs, but as soon as he had the idea, the diary reminded him that attacking the bugs would anger them and they would be eaten immediately.
Thor could only suppress the magic power that was about to stir and his brain worked rapidly.
"Smell, taste, smell, taste... He was going to eat Swann, but his attention suddenly turned to me. What smell on me attracted him?"
Thor tried to back away slowly, but the diary still reminded him that if he moved too much he would be swallowed by the bug.
Suddenly something flashed through Thor's mind.
If the insects were attracted by his own unique smell, then Thor probably had no way to cover up the smell without alarming the insects.
But the probability that a powerful human-faced worm would suddenly only be interested in Thor is actually very small.
It's like if you randomly grab someone on the street and do a paternity test, the result is 99% match.
Well, thinking this way, the idea becomes clear.
Thor has one and only one thing that belongs in this castle.
Things that come from the same place are naturally more likely to be related.
An idea flashed through Thor's mind.
This time, the diary was finally left unturned.
A hint of joy flashed across Thor's eyes, but with his strong willpower and years of honed acting skills, he forcibly changed it into sorrow and fear.
He slowly turned his neck and looked at Victor on the steps.
Victor was still tied up tightly by the tentacles separated by Xiao Zao.
But the eyes he showed were still calm.
He even smiled a little.
"I only have one chance." Thor told himself.
"Victor," Thor opened his lips a little, his voice was very low, but he knew Victor could hear him, "Why did you kill so many people? Why did you play tricks on me? We can exchange what you want. There is no need to fight. We are all wizard apprentices. Benefits are more important than death, aren't they?"
Victor blinked.
Xiao Zao slowly let go of Victor.
But there was still a lot of frost on Victor's body at this time, and it seemed that he was still controlled by Thor's witchcraft and unable to move.
"I didn't kill them." Victor narrowed his eyes. "I didn't kill any of the people here."
"So there's no room for negotiation?" Thor's tone turned sinister. "If you don't save me, I'll drag you into the worm's belly with me even if I die!"
Victor curled his lips nonchalantly, "Okay, what does it matter? Death is the end of everyone anyway, and threats are nothing new to me. Castle, rainstorm, and you, brother, I am honored."
Victor raised his hand with difficulty, stroked his chest, and lowered his head slightly.
“Since you say so…” Thor suddenly moved, but he didn’t run directly towards Victor.
He threw something at Victor.
A small porcelain bottle with a sealed lid.
The human-faced worm that was sniffing Thor was suddenly startled. It seemed to come back to its senses suddenly, realizing that the food in front of it was about to run away, and quickly opened its mouth wide.
But Thor had no intention of escaping or resisting. He just instantly shot an arrow at the small porcelain bottle in the air.
“Bang!”
The small porcelain bottle that was spinning in the air and flying towards Victor was shattered in an instant, and the light yellow oily liquid poured out. Due to inertia, most of it still flew towards Victor.
Victor's eyes widened, his body still stiff, he could only watch helplessly as the "holy oil" poured all over him! (End of this chapter)
