Chapter 256 The Restless Corpse
The face of the half-woman with spider-like arms and fingers slammed into the ground with a loud noise.
A huge crack appeared on the stone platform, and it shook even more violently.
The half-bodied monster woman also stopped moving, as if she had been smashed to pieces. However, because she was a conscious being, there was no bloody scene.
Outside, this woman might be very scary, but inside Thor's consciousness platform, it was easy to deal with her.
The three consciousnesses watching the battle on the sidelines shuddered together, as if they were the shattered stone slab.
Suppressing the consciousness that had been completely contaminated, Thor's face remained gloomy.
A layer of white frost slowly crept up on his skin, just like the madness creeping into his eyes.
Morton, who was standing not far away, realized that something was wrong and immediately shouted, "Master, please calm down. You are not in the right state now."
Thor immediately raised his eyes to look at Morton, and the coldness in his eyes made the latter shudder.
But the coldness quickly receded and a little warmth returned.
Thor blinked, trying not to let his anger get the better of him.
"The Mosheng Juice is not effective enough. If I insist on staying here by my own will, I may lose control at any time. I'd better withdraw first and study this uncontrollable evil spirit next time."
Thinking of this, Thor raised the diary in his hand.
The half-body woman who had just appeared turned into a torn black page and flew back into the diary.
But this time the pages were smaller than before, as if Thor had consumed the woman's energy when he attacked her with his tentacles.
Thor looked at the other three again.
Several people immediately understood and turned into black light, returning to the diary and turning back into black pages.
The stone platform under his feet became stable again, but the starlight around him continued to flicker rapidly.
The starlight looked more and more like a pair of eyes, blinking desperately, as if sending some signal.
The starry sky that makes other conscious beings alert is like the real sky in Thor's eyes, which is refreshing and pleasant to look at.
If it weren't for the simple conscious being who was easily tempted to fall into extreme emotions here, Thor wouldn't mind staying a little longer.
He exerted force with his fingers, closed the diary with a "snap", closed his eyes and exited the consciousness platform.
As soon as he opened his eyes, the magic crystals fixed between the magic circles under his feet shattered instantly, and even the magic circle he had worked so hard to draw spontaneously combusted and destroyed.
Thor quickly dodged the flames and jumped out of the magic circle.
"The formation was damaged quite badly this time. Could it be that I moved too much inside? This can't always happen. I need to find a way to reinforce this formation."
After leaving the consciousness space, the violent emotion just now was dispelled, and Thor's state gradually returned to normal.
"It seems that if I want to enter the consciousness platform multiple times, I must prepare enough drugs that can stabilize the consciousness or emotions. The grinding sound fruit is good, but I have too little stock now, and the time it can last for a single time is limited. I almost lost control just now."
Thor decided to refine a large amount of Mosheng Fruit to extract the essence to prolong time, while continuing to look for high-level substitutes.
"But I don't have any ideas for high-level substitutes right now, so it's more reliable to get more grinding fruits."
"Billy probably doesn't have any. Maybe I can go to Mofan Town to search for some. Although they were looted by the barbarians, they should have seeds or stocks. The last wandering apprentice who showed up at the time seemed reliable. He should try his best to restore the Mosheng fruit fields."
Thor touched his chin and was about to use the cleaning tools to clean up the debris on the ground, but as soon as he turned around, he was startled by the person behind him.
"drink!"
There were dozens of corpses standing among the shelves behind Thor.
Unlike before, they all opened their empty eyes and stared at Thor.
The body closest to him was Hermann's.
The "beautified" corpse was now clinging to the edge of the shelf, seemingly trying hard to cross the invisible boundary.
From his bottomless dark eyes, Thor seemed to hear a continuous sound...
"Save me, save me, save me..."
"Hermann?" Thor stepped back step by step until his back hit the laboratory table.
He put his hands behind his back and secretly groped for something on the table.
As Hermann's corpse began to speak, calls came from the empty eyes of the other corpses.
Some people, like Hermann, were calling for help, while others were talking, but their voices were vague and the specific content could not be heard clearly.
Saul didn't try to listen to the specific content.
As the noise grew louder, the bodies began to move.
Because they had appeared in the corridor outside the bronze gate without warning, and Thor had never seen them move, he thought these corpses could teleport like Gorza.
I finally saw it today.
They don't teleport, but walk like normal people. However, when they move, layers of shadows are formed in the air, as if multiple people are moving at the same time.
It creates a visual illusion, and it is easy to ignore their existence as long as you don't stare at them.
So when people come to their senses, they will find that there are many terrifying figures around them.
Gently open the drawer and touch a cylindrical object.
Slow down your movements to avoid irritating the zombies.
Thor slowly moved the things in his hand in front of him.
That was a red candle made from his blood.
With the appearance of the red candle, the originally noisy and restless group of zombies suddenly became much quieter.
Thor quickened his movements a little, took out the lamp lighter which was also in the drawer, and lit the candle.
The group of zombies on the opposite side gradually closed their eyes, and as the black hole closed, the cries for help completely disappeared.
Only then did Thor slowly approach the group of zombies holding a candle.
He walked all the way to Hermann, who did not react in any other way, but just looked at the candle in Thor's hand.
Thor placed the candle on the ground not far in front of the corpses. Seeing that all the corpses lowered their heads, he retreated little by little.
"I have checked many times and found no souls in the bodies, but they still have a certain degree of consciousness and can move independently. Could it be that there is consciousness hidden in the flesh?"
"But why are they calling for help? Where are those cries coming from?"
A term emerged in Thor's mind - mezzanine.
The wizard tower has 22 floors, plus a mezzanine where no living people exist.
In the mezzanine around the warehouse, there is a dark space full of eyes. Here, Thor's soul will be burned, and he can only hold on for a few seconds at most.
There is also a mezzanine inside the bronze door outside the warehouse.
Thor analyzed that it should be the entrance to the mezzanine. Those slender hands were guards, not coveting living souls.
The pipes connecting the candles probably have the weakest attack power.
Although those mouths are very painful, their fighting power is very poor. Even if you accidentally fall into one, you can still try to counterattack.
By this calculation, there are eyes, mouths and hands in the mezzanine. It seems that the souls of a group of people have also been dismembered.
What about those other parts of the soul?
As a soul, will it feel pain after being dismembered? (End of this chapter)
