Chapter 304 The Difficulty of Advancement
When Thor and Byron, who had finished their adjustments, left the laboratory, Keli had already completed a series of preparations and was sitting leisurely in the front hall flipping through the books that her former owner Mochimochi had thrown on the table.
Hearing the voice, she looked up from the text and saw Thor and his companion walking down the stairs one after the other.
Especially Thor, who was holding a backpack in his hand.
"You... are leaving now?" She casually threw the book in her hand on the sofa.
"Yes, I haven't been back to the warehouse for a long time. I originally thought I could go back in ten days, but I unexpectedly stayed for another half a month. I have to go back quickly to hand over the work."
Thor knew that after he and Byron left, Keli was the only one left in Black Castle. Although Keli took the initiative to come here to study her witchcraft, and with her personality, she wouldn't care about it, but after all, Black Castle was not as convenient as the Wizard Tower.
"I'm sorry, we finally meet, but I have to leave in a hurry again." Thor hasn't studied with Keli for a long time.
It seems that after advancing to the second-level apprenticeship, both of them went in different directions.
Keli is more free and easy.
She shrugged and said, "It doesn't matter. If we always get together to chat, it means we are probably not far from death."
She added, "I left transmission tracks at the registration office and with Instructor Gudo - something that can communicate directly with Black Castle. If you need anything to talk to me, you can go to these two places... Oh, by the way, remember to prepare enough magic crystals. Transmission tracks consume a lot of magic power."
"Then let's just communicate through letters." Thor refused with a smile.
Keli rolled her eyes, sat back on the sofa, touched the book she had thrown aside before, and continued reading.
Thor said goodbye to her, "Then Senior Byron and I will leave."
Keli did not show her face, but simply raised one hand and waved it casually.
Unexpectedly, Byron suddenly said, "Actually, you don't have to call me senior anymore. If I'm not mistaken, you should have entered the third level, right?"
Thor didn't expect that Senior Byron could see it, but he didn't deny it, "Yes."
In the past half month, Thor has successfully mastered the 2nd level witchcraft Touch of Torture.
He has now officially become a third-level wizard apprentice!
“Bang!”
Kelly's book slipped from her palm and fell heavily to the ground.
"You're already level three?" She stood up in disbelief. "How long have you been at level two? Three months?"
Thor thought about it seriously and said, "It's been almost half a year."
"Would you like to think about it?" Keli clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.
Then she suddenly straightened her chest and said seriously: "Next time we meet...I will catch up with you."
Her eyes were blazing, and she didn't think she was bragging at all.
And Thor on the other side also restrained his smile and nodded seriously, "I believe you."
Both of them were extremely confident that Keli could advance to level three, except Byron who was standing aside and felt like he had been stabbed.
He thought about his own age and the age of the boy and girl in front of him, and his expression became depressed for a moment.
…
Not long after, Thor and Byron got into the carriage they came in.
These two carriages were much larger than the one that Thor rode alone, and no one knew who paid for the rental.
The black castle behind him was completely hidden by the shade of the trees, and Thor looked back from the car window.
It wasn't the feeling of parting that made people look back so frequently, but Thor secretly left something in the Black Castle before leaving.
After Thor turned around, Xiao Zao also quietly climbed out of the car window and, imitating its master's behavior, examined the clones it had left in the Black Castle.
Although Keli was not as easily attracted to "firepower" as Thor, and she even had witchcraft props prepared by her mentor for self-defense, Thor knew that the relationship between Mobei City and Black Castle was not as solid as it seemed, so he was naturally not at ease with Keli staying here alone.
So, he ordered Xiaozao to leave a clone here, allowing it to seize the nutrients of the devil vine and protect Keli at the critical moment.
Xiao Zao is a Soul Devouring Swamp, originally a demonic creature of the same level as the Devil Ivy. But since following Thor, its power has also been affected by the diary and is constantly getting stronger.
Therefore, when Xiaozao encountered the devil vine, he was able to easily suppress the opponent and almost occupied its nest.
I believe that the devil vine will soon discover the small algae clone in the Black Castle Forest.
I hope it doesn't cry too loudly then.
"I really envy you." Byron, who was sitting opposite Thor, sighed softly when he saw Thor finally sit up straight.
"Hmm?" Thor was still thinking about the things in Black Castle and Mobei City, and did not react for a moment.
"For you and Keli, it's only a matter of time before you advance to the third-level apprentice. Unlike me, if I hadn't obtained your plastic bone formula, I might have left the wizard tower and been out there alone, searching for a way to advance in vain."
Thor smiled and said, "In fact, it was you who came up with this idea with your own wisdom. My formula is not the real solution to the problem."
"But I know very well how rare it is to have an epiphany."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
It seemed that the problem of the evil spirit in his body had been solved. Senior Byron, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly opened up.
"Even for a powerful wizard tower, it is very difficult to train a third-level apprentice. Even Kong Sha, who was extremely talented at the time, is still struggling outside to find a way to advance."
Having said that, Byron suddenly remembered something and his face became slightly gloomy.
"Oh, Nick is dead."
Thor was startled, "Senior Nick..."
The last time he saw Nick, he noticed that he was not in good condition. Thinking that he had helped him in the Valley of the Hands, Thor asked about his condition.
It’s a pity that Nick didn’t want to say anything to Thor and never took the initiative to look for Thor.
Moreover, Nick majored in light, so even if Thor knew the trouble he was facing, he probably wouldn't be able to help.
"How did he die? Was it an accident or was he murdered?" Thinking that Nick had a close connection with the Mosheng Fruit, Thor hurriedly asked Byron about the cause of Nick's death.
"Neither. Failed to advance and was contaminated."
"If I fail to advance..." Thor muttered, "I will really die."
Saul recalls the last time he saw Nick.
Nick majored in light, but the witchcraft he studied was all about emotions. Sol never asked why emotions belonged to light.
Thor always thought that majoring in dark attributes was more dangerous, after all, it often dealt with death and evil spirits. That knowledge also seemed extremely weird, full of chaos and evil.
But now it seems that the light attribute may just sound nice.
Byron told Saul that Nick majored in emotions, but he also needed to suppress his emotions. Every time he was injured or his mental body fluctuated, the fear, sadness and even joy he suppressed would come back like a tsunami.
If he can’t withstand the counterattack of the emotional tsunami, his spirit will collapse.
Therefore, Nick often needs Moshengguo to help him get through the most difficult times of the emotional tsunami.
"These descriptions do match Nick's final state." Thor's emotions were shaken by the news of the death of an acquaintance. "But his nervous look at the end didn't seem like he was just contaminated."
Thor remembered that Nick was emotionally tense at the time, but his rationality was not affected, and he gave him the only remaining grinding fruit.
Thor frowned.
The apprentice who applied for a large amount of Mosheng Fruit in the registration office died, and the entire Mofan Town was wiped out. Now even Nick, who was most familiar with the effects of Mosheng Fruit, is dead.
The atmosphere in the carriage gradually became solemn.
Now, almost everyone who had anything to do with the Mosheng Fruit is dead! (End of this chapter)
