Chapter 289 The Visitor
The girl, whose average age was several hundred years old, was using her talent for seduction on her master.
Unfortunately, Thor's emotions had not returned to normal yet. He just stared at Ann's lovely face and uttered two words coldly.
"go back."
The six-handed girl, who had changed her name to An, shrank her neck and instantly turned into a beam of black light and drilled into the diary.
The next second, the stage shook more violently, and the black display screen fell to the ground with a bang, but did not break.
The white coat on Thor faded away like water and turned back into a black apprentice robe.
The octopus-like tentacles shrank and tightened, transforming back into slender human hands.
Thor closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them again, he was back in the laboratory in Black Castle.
When he opened his eyes, the effect of the Mosheng Fruit potion began to fade rapidly.
All kinds of emotions began to bubble out like a spring.
And the world before Thor's eyes was still shaking.
He calmed down and realized that he was being shaken by Xiaozao.
It turned out that his time was not running out, but someone forcibly unplugged his "power supply".
"What's wrong, Xiaozao?" Thor was not angry. He knew that Xiaozao had discovered something.
After Xiao Zao discovered that Thor had woken up, he made way. Another dark green vine came in from the vent above his head, and its slender branches stretched out like human hands, spreading out in front of Thor.
Thor stretched out his hand, placed it on the other person's leaf palm, and mobilized his mental strength.
In an instant, he entered the world of Black Castle vines again and felt the other party's perception.
A carriage entered the Black Castle Forest and had passed through the mushroom trail, and was about to arrive at the Black Castle gate.
"Someone is coming?" Thor let go of his hand. "I see. Devil Ivy, stay alert. If anyone else approaches secretly, notify me immediately."
The dark green branches shook to show their understanding.
The devil's ivy is the giant vine that grows beneath the Black Castle.
It is spread throughout the Black Castle Forest, and if it exerts its full strength, it can monitor the movements of the entire forest.
Ever since Thor became the temporary master of the Black Castle, he has been using the Devil Ivy at full capacity.
After all, compared with previous senior third-level wizard apprentices, his self-protection methods are still a little worse.
Since it has been confirmed that someone has come, and is riding in a carriage, it is unlikely that they have malicious intentions.
"It's only been three days since I became the temporary owner of Black Castle. The Wizard Tower probably hasn't received the news yet. So the city that came over might be Mobei City, which is half a day's journey away from here."
"They should have known about Mochimochi's death. Are they here to say hello or do they have something special to do?"
Thor recalled the perception that the devil vine conveyed to him.
"The wheels are very rutted, and they are carrying cargo. Could they be escorting supplies?"
Thor walked out of the magic circle, and Xiaozao picked up his cloak that he had casually thrown on the back of the chair and handed it to him.
He took the cloak with one hand, shook it gently, and covered himself from head to toe.
Thor then quickly left the lab and jumped down the stairs.
As he moved, countless black vines instantly grew on the wall. The leafless vines were as thick as giant pythons, and as they slid on the wall, they intertwined and overlapped with each other, making a sound like skin rubbing against each other.
They were like huge black tentacles, following Thor's footsteps and arriving with him at the gate of the Black Castle.
The next moment, Thor reached out to open the door and saw Wizard Bree who had just stepped onto the stairs.
Thor narrowed his eyes slightly.
"I haven't seen you for a few days. You seem to be becoming more and more imposing, Lord Saul." A bright smile instantly appeared on Bri's face.
"Hello, Lord Brie, what are you doing here in Black Castle?"
Wizard Bree turned sideways and pointed at the carriage behind him very naturally.
"It's almost time to deliver supplies to Black Castle. I think Lord Thor should have become the temporary owner here, but maybe you will need anything, and I can come over to help you."
Thor glanced at the carriage. There were magical fluctuations in the carriage, but they were very weak, and he could not sense the presence of other people.
"Please come in. I am not familiar with the things here, but there will be other apprentices to take over my job soon. At that time, you may need to send another person over."
"That's no problem." Bree came in with a smile, "Do you need me to help you move the goods in?"
Thor glanced sideways and said, "No need, I don't lack labor."
The two walked into the long and narrow corridor and came to the hall which had become slightly wider.
This place was decorated magnificently by Mochimochi, making it the most suitable place to host these court wizard apprentices.
When the two entered the castle, dark green vines emerged from the ground and reached into the carriage.
The witchcraft protection on the carriage had been removed, and the vines entered the carriage without any hindrance, rolled up a large box of well-sealed goods, and transported it in through the back door of the castle.
While the Devil Ivy was working hard as a porter, the wizard apprentice Bree was already sitting on the soft and comfortable sofa, praising Thor's aesthetic taste.
"Did you plant these vines on the wall? The original devil's ivy looks much more majestic."
Although he was praising, Wizard Bri's heart was actually twitching.
The aesthetic tastes of these wizards who majored in dark magic were so strange! Who would plant ugly climbing plants on the walls of their homes? Especially those black leafless vines that twitched from time to time, looking more like entangled black pythons.
Bri looked extremely conflicted, but still had to put on a decent smile.
Thor didn't know that Bree's trypophobia was about to be brought out by Xiao Zao.
While he was calmly chatting with Bree, he secretly clasped his hands together and held them tightly.
The powerful force caused the bones in his hands to groan.
Bree paused in surprise and looked around. "Hey, what's that sound?"
Thor's hands were in pain, but he remained calm. "It must be these vines I raised. They are more lively than the devil's ivy."
After Thor finished speaking, the vines on the wall began to wriggle even more vigorously.
The corners of Brie's mouth twitched, and in the end she was unable to give the compliment again against her will.
"Don't worry, just continue."
"...Then I will continue to talk about the follow-up of Mofan Town." Bri tried to ignore the movement on the wall. "Now the pollution has been completely cleared, but I'm afraid that the land will be uninhabitable within ten years."
"Ten years is not a long time."
"Yes, but if someone moves into that town in ten years, there is a high probability that they will produce deformed offspring. I wonder if the Wizard Tower is interested in this? If the Wizard Tower has given up on Mofan Town, then the Principality is willing to offer 500 sets of living experimental materials to buy out this place."
Thor did not respond. "Let's wait for the next owner of Black Castle to discuss this matter."
Bree paused for a moment, then realized that Thor was not interested in these things, so he quickly said, "Oh, oh, okay." and changed the subject.
"The old man you asked me to take care of has settled in a small town under Mobei City. I bought a hundred acres of land and twenty servants to take care of him, and also told the local nobles. Don't worry, the old man will never have any troubles in his life from now on."
Thor just nodded slightly and didn't ask any other questions.
He began to exert force again on his clasped hands beneath his robe.
Seeing that Thor didn't seem to be in the mood to continue the conversation, Bree knew that he might not be very welcome at the moment. Anyway, the business was done, so he stood up and prepared to leave.
"Then I won't disturb your research. I hope you can enjoy your short time in Black Castle. If you come to Mobei City in the future, you can always come to the City Lord's Mansion to find me."
Thor stood up as well and merely nodded in response to the greeting.
Then he walked Bree all the way to the entrance hall and watched him get into the now empty carriage, leave the Black Castle, and go into the dark woods.
The next second after the carriage disappeared from his sight, the door in front of him was slammed shut by a black tentacle.
Then, Thor fell down.
He covered his heart and curled up into a ball.
Xiaozao hurried out and looked at Thor in confusion.
Thor raised his head with difficulty, his eyes were already red.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, the side effects of the Mosheng Fruit Extract are so severe. I am experiencing severe mood swings right now."
"When I think about all the pages I gave up and destroyed, I feel so sad that I want to cry!"
