Chapter 283 Marking
Sol mourned for Light for three seconds, then asked, "How did Madam stay in Lightran's body?"
"Didn't you tell me that Light might be controlled by the people of Land Boat? So I came out with Light to meet up with the people of Land Boat, and confiscated the goodies they prepared openly and secretly. If they dare to reach into the wizard tower, don't blame me for chopping off their arms as well."
Wright probably himself did not expect that in what was originally a thrilling story of a counterattack by an Infernal Affairs operative, he would die in an accident at the end.
As expected, this world is extremely dangerous even for a third-level apprentice.
"You haven't told me yet, why did that Penny let you out?"
"Because...she is a nightmare butterfly. I have one of her cocoons in my hand."
"Nightmare Butterfly?" Yula's face showed a little confusion.
She didn't even know about the Nightmare Butterfly? This shouldn't be the case. As a spirit studying dark attributes, she should have heard of the Nightmare Butterfly.
After all, his current main project is resurrection, a field of knowledge that is highly related to consciousness and spirits.
"I'm not very clear about the specific meaning and properties of the Nightmare Butterfly, but I know that it can change a person's perception of himself and the world."
Heywood must know something about this, so Thor can't pretend that he knows nothing.
"Oh?" Yula was really interested. "Would you sell this thing?"
Thor was very calm and shook his head gently, "It's not that I don't want to sell it, but I can't sell it now."
Yura frowned, "Is that your condition for leaving that town?"
On the road!
"What agreement did you reach?"
Thor just looked at Yura in silence.
Yura looked a little annoyed. She leaned back and said, "If you sign a treaty that is unfavorable to you, you can just go back and tell Gorza. He always has some weird ideas."
She sat there quietly for a while with her arms folded, then suddenly raised her eyes and asked again: "Why did you end up in that town?"
"I was originally going to Mobei City, but when I passed by here I thought of my... friends, and then I found them..."
"Is that the lunatic you brought back?"
Saul was silent for a moment, but shook his head and said, "No, he is my friend's neighbor."
The carriage moved forward in silence. Because they were not in a hurry, it was already past noon when the group arrived at the Black Castle near Mobei City.
However, when Thor arrived at the Black Castle, he found that the slender castle in front of him seemed to have been weathered overnight, and even the paint on the walls had fallen off a lot.
"What is this?" Thor stood outside the gate of the Black Castle, and his eyes, which were originally on the door, disappeared.
"There is a vine in the Black Castle. It was raised by Mochimochi and it also houses his spiritual power. Now that Mochimochi is dead, it can't survive."
Youla walked straight forward, pushed open the door of the Black Castle, and walked in along the long and narrow porch.
Even the magnificent hall turned dark, as if it had died along with its former owner.
Yula was more familiar with this place. She took Thor all the way down to an underground wine cellar.
Although it is called a wine cellar, there is no smell of wine in it. It smells more like something rotten.
Yula and Sol walked to the end of the wine cellar and pushed open a secret passage.
This time the entrance does not have neat stone steps, but a complete dirt road.
Yula stepped down, and the slightly damp soil almost covered her shoes. She seemed to want to frown, but unfortunately the doll's face couldn't make so many expressions.
Thor followed behind, observing the surroundings carefully. This was a place he had never set foot in both times he came here.
When you breathe, you can almost feel tiny water droplets in the air, entering your lungs through your nasal cavity.
Damp and dull.
This passage was also the long and narrow style of the Black Castle. Thor and Yula walked in it like two moles digging a hole.
After going down for dozens of meters, something other than soil finally appeared in the cave.
There are some white mushrooms dotted around the corners of the tunnel, which look somewhat familiar.
After that, the downward path began to flatten out.
A huge black shadow blocked the two of them.
Those are the roots of the vine, and the larger and thicker roots are still buried deep in the soil.
"The Black Castle needs a temporary master now, otherwise the castle above will collapse soon." Yula's fingertips were glowing, illuminating the dark cave. "Inject your spiritual power into it now and become the temporary master of the Black Castle."
"Me?"
"Of course, I'll go back soon, only you can stay here for the time being." Yula turned sideways, with his back almost touching the ground, to make room for Thor.
Thor walked forward and touched the huge and thick root system with one hand. The next moment, he seemed to hear someone talking.
[Is Mochi Mochi dead? ]
"……Yes."
[He is the master who has been with me the longest. So how long can you live? I am not comfortable with changing masters all the time.]
"Tell it that the tower will send someone to take over in ten days at the least and half a month at the most. Otherwise, even if you can wait, the second warehouse can't." Yula crossed his arms across his chest, expressionless.
Sol nodded slightly, then turned to tell Vine, "I'm just taking over temporarily. Someone will replace me in fifteen days at most."
[It's really annoying. I don't like temporary master. Well, it's my fault that I can't hold on for fifteen days. Stinky boy, send your mental power in. I hope you can adapt to this new experience as soon as possible and don't vomit on me. ]
Thor raised his eyebrows, "It seems that becoming the temporary master of Black Castle is not an easy thing."
There was no change in the diary in the spirit body.
Thor narrowed his eyes and transferred his mental power through his fingers into the huge root system that was more than three meters in diameter.
In an instant, a huge impact force drilled into Thor's mind.
At this moment, Thor seemed to share his five senses with the vines.
He could feel the roots under his feet absorbing water and nutrients from the soil through tiny pores; there were also vines winding through the soil, breaking through the soil in some corners, enjoying the sunlight and air; but more of it was a feeling of extremely narrow restraint.
He is growing, but he is also tightly bound by something. He can only extend along the predetermined route, not even an inch more.
Thor frowned slowly.
This feeling is very uncomfortable, as if you are wrapped in bandages all over your body, with your hands and feet tightly pressed together. When you want to twist, you find that there is a layer of iron coffin outside the bandages, making it impossible for you to move even a little bit.
This kind of restraint is more oppressive and more desperate than suffocation.
Thor even wanted to yell to relieve his anger, but he found that he couldn't even open his lips.
"Are you not ready yet?" Yula asked in confusion.
Thor opened his eyes instantly, and the cells in his body were finally liberated. The tight feeling of restraint also faded away.
But that horrible feeling of restraint is still frightening, and even just the memory makes Thor shudder slightly.
"What's wrong with you? You have a good talent for mental strength, so it shouldn't be difficult."
Thor put his hands down. He could already vaguely feel what was happening around the castle above his head.
Whether there is someone approaching, whether there is someone walking in the castle... he can feel it.
"It has been marked." Thor responded to Yura.
The latter was relieved, "You stood there for so long, I thought something unexpected happened."
“The marking process was not very comfortable.”
"Of course, but you have strong mental strength, so you are already much better off than others."
Yeah?
Thor, who hasn't fully recovered yet, can't imagine how much worse it can be.
In short, after experiencing the synaesthesia just now, he doesn’t want to experience it again in the short term.
