Chapter 20 Excellent people always wait for opportunities
Mark saw determination in Saul's eyes.
Although I don’t know how a new apprentice decided to transform his witch body the next day.
You have to know that he hesitated for a whole month before he stabbed his own hands.
But now, Mark can see some value in Thor.
The person who could escape from the laboratory at midnight is definitely not an ordinary newcomer.
Either he has the ability or he has someone to back him up.
"Then you can copy it first. This book is very straightforward. If you want to learn more after reading it, you can come to the lab to find me. I will be here for this month."
Senior Mark was so gentle that the other two newcomers in the laboratory dropped their jaws.
"Thank you, Senior Mark."
Saul sat down again. He didn't have much time and he had to race against time to copy the book.
Mark left space for Thor and walked to the other side of the laboratory.
At this time, Ankita, who had been observing for a long time, picked up the book in front of her, walked up to Mark and smiled sweetly.
"Senior, when I was learning to construct runes today, I couldn't succeed in a few places. Can you teach me?"
Angela rested the book under her chin, trying to look as cute as possible.
"Of course," Mark smiled, "10 magic crystals, or 2 credits."
The surprise that had just risen in Angela's eyes suddenly disappeared.
She only had dozens of magic crystals on her, how could she spend them just by asking a few questions? "I, I'd better think about it myself."
Angela hurried back to her seat and lowered her head deeply, fearing that she would see the mocking eyes of others.
She thought she could only find an opportunity to ask Teacher Kaz, but her and Duke's performance yesterday did not seem to satisfy Teacher Kaz.
I wonder if the other party will come to the laboratory today?
The book "Green's Cognition of Witch Body Transformation" is not thick, only about a hundred pages, and it is not a printed version, so there are not many words in total.
When transcribing, Sol skipped some useless interjections and only extracted the essentials to take notes.
But for a newcomer who has only been in school for two days, it is more difficult than he imagined to fully understand this book.
Saul didn't hesitate and went to ask Mark with the book in hand.
From the change in the other party's attitude, Thor could more or less tell that the other party was trying to compensate him.
I don’t know why.
Was it because Sol survived and made the other party afraid, or was it because Mark knew about Fan's attack? Whatever the reason, it would not delay Sol from taking the opportunity to get some rewards first.
With Mark's help in summarizing the knowledge points, Sol's copying speed increased greatly. He was fully confident that he could copy down all the important contents of the book before noon tomorrow.
This way the 2 magic crystals won't be wasted.
Teacher Kaz showed up again after 3:30.
But he kept frowning, as if he was thinking about some difficult problem.
Duke, who was about to step forward to ask questions, was blocked back.
The two newcomers then understood why other apprentices would not come to the laboratory to ask questions.
The patient explanation on the first day seems to be just a deceptive opening. Once you are introduced to it, its true indifference is immediately revealed.
Duke failed to find a sense of superiority from Thor again. He looked a little flustered, and his eyes secretly glancing at Thor became more and more complicated.
But no one expected that after Professor Kaz thought sadly for a while in the laboratory, he suddenly walked up to Thor.
"Mentor?" Mark thought Kaz was looking for him, and stood up nervously.
Unexpectedly, Kaz stood in front of Thor and said, "Come with me."
Thor was surprised at first, then happy.
Yesterday Duke and Angela were taken away, and he was left behind, which was equivalent to being abandoned by the tutor. But today the tutor actually remembered him again.
What made him change his mind?
Thor quickly packed up and grabbed his book, then quietly followed Kaz.
They walked down the slope of the East Tower. Occasionally, when they met apprentices on the road, they would move to the sides of the road and bow their heads in greeting.
As a new apprentice, Thor had never been to the lower floors of the East Tower.
The lower floors of the West Tower are residences for housekeepers and servants, and the first floor at the bottom is a garbage dump.
In the past, when Sol cleaned the corridor, he would take the garbage he collected back to the utility room, and someone would clean it up and take it away on a regular basis. He himself had never been to the garbage dump and had no idea what it was like.
I only heard that the servants going there were all old servants who had been there for many years, and each of them had a strange personality and hardly interacted with outsiders.
The further down they went, the dimmer the lights in the corridor became. Thor kept his head down and followed Mentor Kaz closely, without looking inside out of curiosity.
But he silently counted the layers in his mind.
9.
8.
7,
…
2!
When the countdown reached two, Kaz suddenly turned around and took him into this level.
At the entrance to the second floor, there was a big man who looked to weigh over 200 pounds, sitting on the ground, leaning against the wall, motionless.
Most of the corridor was blocked.
Kaz led Thor through the remaining gap, but the big man still did not respond.
After walking a few steps, there is a red wooden door.
Kaz pushed the door open, and the door panel creaked harshly.
As Thor followed in, a pungent stench mixed with the smell of blood penetrated into his nostrils.
Thor immediately held his breath and looked up at the mentor in front of him.
Mentor Kaz seemed to have no nose, his facial expression remained unchanged as he stood in the center of the room.
The walls of this room were all covered with pale powder, and words Thor didn't recognize were written on them like graffiti.
Fortunately, although these words looked a little confusing, they did not make Thor feel dizzy.
In the center of the room is a conveyor belt extending from the wall.
The entrance is blocked by a black leather tassel, so you can't see inside.
Next to the conveyor belt is a long table filled with square boxes of various shapes and sizes.
These boxes were all open at the moment, with nothing inside, but the edges and corners were stained with some unknown sticky substances.
Some of the boxes had clusters of fingertip-sized mushrooms growing outside.
On one side of the table hung some tools such as hammers and chisels.
There was also a large box on wheels under the long table. The box was also open, and the inner wall was stained with patches of dark red and almost black.
That box seemed to be the source of the stench and smell of blood in the house.
Near the inner wall, there is a table and two chairs, which are randomly pulled out.
There were many books stacked on the table, as well as scattered single pages of paper, an overturned pen holder, and pens that had rolled to the ground along the pen holder.
"The first and second floors of the East Tower are rooms for bodies. This is the second floor."
Corpse?
Thor pursed his lips, and suddenly he had an association with everything he had just seen.
"If you can do the job here, you can get 3 credits every month."
Thor looked up suddenly.
The apprentice manual says that one credit can be exchanged for ten magic crystals, and credits are more useful. On the other hand, ten magic crystals cannot be exchanged for any credits! Thor couldn't help it. The words "I want, I can, I can" in his mouth were about to push through his teeth and lips and come out on their own.
But he suddenly thought of Angela and Duke yesterday. Were they also brought here? However, they did not meet Kaz's requirements, so they returned to the laboratory again today?
"What do you need from me?" Thor tried his best to sound calm and well-behaved.
"Deal with the mutated corpses." Kaz said as he turned down a wrench next to the transport platform.
The conveyor belt started rolling, and soon, a fresh corpse broke through the black leather tassels and turned in front of the two men.
Thor actually had guessed that he would definitely do work related to corpses. But when the real corpse appeared in front of him, he still couldn't help but turn pale and took two steps back.
The body tied to the conveyor belt was covered with a piece of black leather, with the face intact and exposed outside the leather.
Thor recognized him at a glance. This person was the new apprentice that Keli had mentioned, who cut his legs into shreds and buried them in the flower bed yesterday! (End of this chapter)
