Chapter 205: Stage 2
Thor dreamed that he had fallen into the sea and could only struggle desperately by swimming in a clumsy doggy paddle.
Even though he was exhausted and his hands and feet were numb, he never thought of giving up.
But the sea water was icy cold, and wave after wave pushed him under the surface. The pain of suffocation spread from his lungs to his whole body.
"It can't sink!" This was the only thought left in Thor's mind, "I must survive!"
The more he felt the threat of death, the more determined he was to live.
Just as Thor was fighting against the waves, suddenly a golden page appeared in front of him and floated quietly in the wind and waves.
"Pages?" Thor looked over in surprise.
Although he had never seen the golden pages, as he owned the diary of a dead wizard, he subconsciously felt that the pages were a good thing.
It is his life-saving straw now.
Thor once again braved the huge waves and paddled hard, trying desperately to get closer to the pages of the book.
Finally, with the rise and fall of the sea, his fingers touched the edge of the page.
Although the pages of the book were golden, they were not cold and hard like metal, but felt very soft to the touch.
However, when Thor tried to support his body, the pages of the book felt soft to the touch but were extremely solid and supported Thor's strength.
Using his arms to support his whole body, Thor moved himself onto the pages of the book, finally getting away from the dangerous cold sea water.
He lay exhausted on the pages of the book, "Where is this place? I can't feel any magic, could it be that I have traveled through time again?"
Thor spread out his mental power and probed the surroundings.
Judging from the feedback from his mental power, everything here was blurry, and even the golden pages did not appear in his mental perception.
"It doesn't feel like a time travel, it feels more like a dream." He calmed down.
Thor looked at the endless deep blue, almost inky black sea around him and the light, cloudless sky above his head, feeling a little melancholy.
"How can I get back to the real world?" Just as Thor thought of this, he suddenly felt his body trembling.
He quickly lowered his center of gravity and pinched the edge of the golden pages.
The next moment, the golden pages suddenly began to rise, like an elevator that didn't care about the safety of the passengers, and flew towards the sun above at a very high speed! As the golden pages flew, the sun above was getting closer and closer.
Thor looked up and thought the sun was very strange.
It didn't look like the sun, but more like an... exit? The brightness suddenly increased, and Thor subconsciously closed his eyes.
When he woke up again, he opened his eyes suddenly and saw that he was being carried by someone.
There was a small mushroom growing on the top of the head of the person carrying him. The mushroom looked a little wilted and was swaying back and forth.
It was the driver who was waiting for him outside.
At this moment, a black tentacle appeared in front of him.
A shark-like mouth opened at the tip of the tentacle, and a tongue of the same color stretched out and licked Thor's face.
It’s icy cold.
"Xiao Zao?" Thor reached out and pinched Xiao Zao's mouth, watching it swing innocently in his palm, and let go after a few seconds. "How did I get back?"
The man running with Thor on his back finally realized that he was awake.
"Master."
The man with mushrooms growing on his head is Thor's driver.
Thor patted the driver on the shoulder and asked him to put him down.
"You saved me?" Thor was a little bit unbelievable.
The driver shook his head repeatedly. "I just saw the manor collapsed, so I wanted to come and take a look. I saw you lying on the ground, and I was afraid you were in danger, so I carried you away from the manor."
Thor jumped to the ground, looked at his body, and found nothing unusual.
He looked back again and confirmed that he had been carried out of the manor by the coachman.
The huge castle behind him turned into ruins, and the soul storm that covered the sky and the sun disappeared without a trace.
"Was it the diary that saved me? The size of that golden page is almost the same as the inner page of the diary. What is the connection between them?" Thor looked at his left shoulder puzzledly, where the diary was still floating quietly.
Between the closed pages, Thor vaguely saw a hint of gold.
Just as he was about to take a closer look, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes falling on him.
He immediately turned his head to look in the direction of Ralph Manor, and unexpectedly saw a familiar figure at the gate.
It's Victor!
"He is still alive." Thor was not surprised at all.
Having just experienced the baptism of the mysterious soul storm, Thor was even more wary of him.
Victor was standing under the only relatively intact gate of Ralph Manor at this time, staring at Thor closely, and the harp in his hand was nowhere to be found.
Then he took a step, quickening his pace, toward Thor.
"Run!" This guy was so mysterious that Thor didn't want to confront him again. He called the driver and turned around and ran.
But the footsteps behind him were getting closer and closer, and the "thump thump thump" sound seemed to be knocking on Thor's heart.
"This Victor is probably related to the soul storm just now."
"Next time I'd better prepare two trump cards with me." Thor gritted his teeth.
The diary still did not give any hints, but Thor did not know whether the diary was broken or his life was really not in danger.
Just as the two were about to run to the fence at the end of the road, a sudden reflection caught Thor's eyes.
The next second, accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air, a giant sword more than ten meters long suddenly pierced behind Thor and the coachman!
The ground was cracked, and the uninhabited house opposite began to collapse after a tremor.
The violent vibration caused Thor and the driver to fall out.
As soon as Thor landed, he immediately turned over.
He looked at Victor first.
The opponent also looked a little embarrassed. The giant sword three meters away from Thor was only a few centimeters away from him.
It was obviously directed at him.
But Victor did not pay attention to the owner of the giant sword first, but glanced at Thor.
There was a scrutinizing look in his eyes, as if he was confirming something.
But the next second, Victor retreated again.
Another giant sword of the same length fell where Victor was before.
This time the thrust was more powerful, with two-thirds of the sword buried in the ground.
This was followed by an eagle's cry.
A giant bird swooped down and suddenly soared high just before hitting the ground.
But before the giant bird flew high again, a tall and slender figure jumped down from the bird's back.
It was a woman with short, neat blond hair.
As soon as she landed, she placed her hands on the two giant swords that were stuck into the ground.
The originally cold and shining giant sword instantly turned into liquid like mercury, reshaped itself, returned to the woman's hand, and after cooling again, it turned into two three-meter-long swords.
The greatsword was still heavy, and beyond the length for a normal warrior to control, but the woman wielded it with ease, as if she were wielding two toys.
Saul recognized him.
This woman is none other than Kira, the most powerful wizard in the Kerma Empire today!
At first, Thor just felt that the other person looked familiar. After a while, he remembered that she was Kira, the second-level wizard who had visited the wizard tower two years ago.
This wizard, who dared to speak bluntly to the tower master, left a deep impression on Thor.
When I saw her again two years later, she seemed even more powerful than before.
Kira didn't look at Thor. She just held her two swords across her body, with the tips of the swords pointing at Victor, ready to attack at any time.
She looked more like a warrior than a wizard.
At this time, Victor had just retreated three meters away.
When Kira held the sword horizontally, the tip of the sword almost scratched his face.
So he raised his eyebrows and took two steps back.
This retreat seemed to be a concession to Kira.
If it were Thor, he would not attack rashly when facing an enemy of unknown strength.
But Kira is obviously not the same kind of person as Thor.
Seeing the other party retreat, she had no intention of putting away her sword.
Full of murderous intent, he said sternly: "A second-level wizard who enters another second-level wizard's territory without permission can be regarded as a signal to start a war."
Battle-mad wizard Kira!
