Chapter 213: Mezzanine (I)
The giant who was turning the machine looked up and said slowly, "You, forgot to pick out the head."
The other giant put down the big box with a puzzled look on his face, "Strange, I've picked it before."
He reached in and took the head out, holding it in both hands, "I'll go, put it away."
The giant who was turning the machine suddenly licked his tongue and stared at the human head with obvious desire in his eyes.
But in the end he didn't say anything, just nodded and continued to turn the machine.
The machine continued to run without the head, crushing the remaining contents inside.
Out of curiosity to know how the giants would deal with the human head, Thor went over to take a look.
But just as he got closer, a weeping translucent human face suddenly emerged from the head in the giant's hand, and flew straight towards Thor while crying silently.
Just as Thor dodged to the left, the mourning face turned nimbly in the air and opened its mouth to bite Thor.
Thor quickly stretched out his hand to block it, but he couldn't release any magic power at this moment and could only rely on his spirit to resist.
Crying Face bit Thor's arm with a "grunt", and a wave of dizzying and piercing pain spread to Thor's consciousness.
Thor endured the pain and pulled off the face of the person who was biting his finger, tearing it apart with both hands.
The crying face let out a ghostly howl that sounded increasingly pitiful.
Thor was not moved at all, and used more force to tear the crying face in half. Not only that, he also put the two halves together and continued to tear them apart.
Only after he had torn the crying face into a dozen pieces did he stop with lingering fear.
The crying face could no longer make any sound.
Thor loosened his grip, and the fragments dissipated in smoke.
"How dangerous!" Thor put down his hand and touched his face, which was free of cold sweat. "It is indeed easy to get into trouble when the soul leaves the body. It is better to go back quickly."
Thor looked down and saw that his right ring finger was shorter. He was afraid that the crying-faced man had bitten his finger and swallowed it.
But it was too late for Thor to get his finger back.
The crying face had turned into smoke, and his fingers might have disappeared along with it.
At the same time as the crying face disappeared, the head in the giant's hand suddenly cracked into more than a dozen pieces that could never be put together again.
Red and white flowed out from the fragments and flowed down through the giant's fingers.
"Ah, it's broken." The giant stood there in a daze.
The other giant who was still turning the machine immediately put down the handle in his hand and ran over, "It's broken. It's ok. Eat it."
As soon as he finished speaking, he buried his head in the palm of another giant and devoured it with a grunt.
The other giant then came to his senses, quickly retracted his hand, and moved his mouth forward.
The two giants were fighting over the broken head and almost got into a fight.
Looking at the chaos over there, Thor looked away in disgust. "Are these giants cannibals? But they don't seem to react to other corpse fragments. Maybe they are brain eaters."
Thor looked at his right hand distressedly again, "I don't know if there will be any other effects, I'd better go back quickly."
He raised his head and stepped towards the roof, ready to pass directly through the ceiling of the floor.
He continued walking up into the air like he was buying stairs, until his head slowly sank into the ceiling.
But when he reached the upper floor, he found that he had not arrived at the first floor of the East Tower, but had entered a dark mezzanine.
His head seemed to have penetrated a layer of foam-like film and was facing countless eyes.
The eyes were densely packed together, one next to the other, and the pupils were as small as pinholes.
As soon as Thor showed his head, the pupils of those eyes moved instantly and all looked at Thor.
Suo's scalp suddenly went numb. "Isn't this the mysterious space that the tower master took me through when I entered the second floor of the East Tower more than ten days ago? Could it be that the room just now was not a basement?"
He was unable to judge his position for a moment, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to move forward under the gaze of those eyes.
But as soon as he entered this space, he suddenly felt his whole body burning hot, as if he was poured with hot oil.
The diary also flew to him in sync with the pain.
[On June 12, 316th year of the New Moon Calendar,
you developed a bad habit of sleepwalking and fell from the sky to the ground.
Because your first fall was beyond the monsters' expectations,
you luckily escaped.
When this steaming delicacy appears again,
They decide,
Even if it will anger the owner, you must first enjoy the food that is delivered to your door.
Look down, is your body bubbling? That’s the delicious sight of the creamy clam soup boiling! 】
As soon as Thor saw the diary appear, he prepared to escape, but when he read the contents of the diary clearly, he turned around and ran away.
This time he finally understood what it meant to be anxious and on edge.
Under the threat of death, he finally learned to fly and move like a ghost without any instruction.
The whole person slipped back down.
When he returned to the basement, Thor was still shaking all over.
It's not that I'm afraid, it's that it's hot.
He seemed to be able to see the heat rising from his body.
"If I stay there any longer, I'm afraid I'm really going to boil over."
After a long while, Thor recovered.
He looked at the gate through which the giant had come in, and decided to go back through the normal passage.
The East Tower was indeed much more dangerous than the West Tower, and I almost died just by casually walking through the walls.
He walked over, smoothly passing through the door of the giant's room, and carefully peeked into the corridor outside.
The corridor is the kind of ramp that is common in both the East and West Towers, which is gentle but has a certain friction.
Thor walked up the slope and soon reached the end of the road.
Here is a wall.
"I didn't see any other exit along the way. The giant should have come in from here. Is there a mechanism here?" Thor continued to move forward in confusion.
Anyway, whether there is a mechanism or not, physical barriers no longer have any effect on him.
But when passing through the wall, he would be more careful so as not to enter the space full of eyes again.
But this time, Thor successfully passed through the wall and came to a dim corridor.
There were candles in the corridor, but they were too dim to illuminate all areas, and only formed circles of light.
By this point, Thor was familiar with the place.
This is the dark and disorienting corridor that leads from the second floor of the East Tower to the first floor.
"I'm finally back. I can actually leave my body while sleeping. When I get back, should I first order a coffin that can trap my soul?"
Although Thor still felt the burning pain from the burn, he could feel that his mental body was very stable. As long as he went back and took some medicine or rested well, he would recover quickly.
So he gradually relaxed.
This was also because of his strong spiritual power. If it were someone with a weaker spiritual power, the experience just now would be enough to drive them crazy.
Thor turned right and soon arrived at the first bronze door leading to the warehouse.
"Now that I have no body, how can I push open the door?" He suddenly thought of this question again.
Before Thor could think of a solution, he saw the door in front of him suddenly opened a little.
"Did someone come out?"
But before he could feel his good luck, he was shocked to find that two bronze doors were opening outwards at the same time.
If two doors open at the same time, stand still until they close!
Although Thor was extremely shocked, he still stood where he was and dared not move as Mentor Kaz had requested.
White arms as thin as noodles stretched out from inside and kept rubbing the air, the ground, and the walls like blind people, as if looking for something.
