Chapter 305: Not Very Strong
Now almost all the apprentices who were related to the Mosheng Fruit are dead.
"I'm the only one left." Thor silently kept this matter in his heart.
To this day, he still doesn't think that the Mosheng Fruit is such a rare material. But it is undeniable that in some places, the Mosheng Fruit does have the effect of stabilizing emotions for a short period of time.
But as someone who has experienced it personally, Thor fully recognizes the importance the Wizard Tower attaches to the Grinding Fruit.
It can provide shelter, but it is not a strategic material.
Therefore, the series of conspiracies and tactics surrounding the Mosheng Fruit and Mofan Town seem very... abrupt.
"I was just accidentally involved in Mofan Town, and witnessed its decline and destruction. No, that's not right!" Thor's face slowly darkened, "It wasn't accidental, it was Nick who led me to Mofan Town. Sure enough, just like what Senior Byron said, he actually left halfway on purpose!"
Thor looked up at Senior Byron who was also silent. "Senior, did Nick really die from his failure in advancement? Did anyone see his body, or did someone spread the news?"
Byron watched Thor's expression turn serious and sat up slightly, his throat split.
"He failed to advance. He was severely contaminated. It was the body that was dissected by Teacher Kaz himself."
"Is that so? Has the tower master ever paid attention to it?"
Byron didn't expect Thor to mention the tower master. A trace of fear flashed in his eyes. "No, it was finally mentor Rum who took away Nick's remains. There are too many contaminated places. It cannot be used, and it cannot be buried properly."
"Teacher Rum..." Thor repeated silently.
He originally just wanted to sneak into Mofan Town, grab some Mosheng Fruit and run away, but he didn't expect things to escalate to such an extent.
I'm sure everyone knows that he went to Mofan Town now? After returning to the tower, I'm afraid he will attract more attention.
I wonder if there is anyone secretly looking forward to his return.
"Senior, does anyone else know that you and Ke Li are here to take over from me?"
Byron said in a deep voice: "We didn't deliberately publicize it when we came out, but this matter is not a secret."
Thor lay back, leaning against the soft cushions of the carriage.
…
After five days of traveling, the carriage finally returned to the familiar gray tower.
The ancient and majestic buildings were dyed orange by the afterglow of the setting sun. If matched with the deep night sky in the east, it seemed to be burning.
The carriage soon entered the first-floor entrance of the wizard tower, which was reserved for vehicles only.
Normally, after a simple inspection, students who are on an outing can leave the carriage and return to the dormitory or laboratory with their spoils.
But today, the inspection of the carriages seemed a little too slow.
However, the people waiting in the carriage remained quiet, and didn't seem to care about wasting this little time.
Finally, the second-level apprentice who was in charge of checking the carriage stopped timidly and said, "Hello, there is no problem with the vehicle, you can get off."
At the same time, two figures appeared in the direction of entering the wizard tower.
One is Luo Kai, the president of the mutual aid association, and the other is Jero, a third-level wizard apprentice with a playful look on his face.
"I'm afraid you'll have to wait a moment." Luo Kai stepped forward with a worried look on his face. He said to the carriage with the door closed, "Thor, although you have successfully escaped from the cursed area of Bloody Town, we need to take you for another full body check-up just in case."
Luo Kai finished speaking and tilted his head.
But the only response he got was the horse's slightly uneasy snort.
Luo Kai narrowed his eyes and reconfirmed the mental power present in the carriage.
One is Byron and the other is Saul.
Although the second mental power fluctuation was a little weaker, Luo Kai could be sure that it was Thor's fluctuation.
For him, confirming identity through mental fluctuations is much more accurate than through face.
"Thor, don't worry. The person I invited here is Monica's most outstanding apprentice, Senior Jero. You have also met him. He is very proficient in witchcraft to resist curses."
The people in the carriage still did not respond, and the smile on Luo Kai's face slowly faded.
Instead, Jero, who was standing at the entrance, had his shoulders twitching, "Are you sure Thor is on this carriage?"
"Of course," Luo Kai said affirmatively, but the long silence in the carriage made his affirmation sound less convincing.
"Then what are we waiting for?" Jero said, still with a flamboyant smile on his face, and walked straight to the carriage, "Open the door!"
The car door opened and the person inside turned his head to look over. A mouth opened on his slender neck, revealing a row of sharp teeth.
"Jero."
"Hello, Byron, when are we going to go out on a mission together?" Although Jero was talking to Byron, his eyes were scanning the car.
And in the carriage, there was no one else except Byron.
"Where's Thor? Did you hide him?" Jero opened his mouth and swallowed hard.
Byron ignored Jero's teasing.
He looked at Luo Kai, who had also walked to the car door with a gloomy face, and said, "Are you looking for Saul? He's not here."
"Impossible, I felt his mental power in this car." Luo Kai was still confident in his judgment.
The spiritual power he felt was active, and this kind of fluctuation could not be simulated by personal belongings or witchcraft props.
Others may not be able to tell the difference, but he can.
Now Luo Kai guessed that Thor might be hiding somewhere.
It’s not like there aren’t any witchcraft props that can allow people to hide.
Now the question is how to find the person.
Luo Kai put a smile on his face again, "Thor, you'd better come out. Let us check to make sure you don't bring back anything unclean. It will be bad for you and the other apprentices."
But still no one in the carriage responded to him.
"If you still don't come out, don't blame me for using force to get you out."
As soon as Luo Kai finished speaking, Byron stood up from the carriage and said, "You guys continue searching. I'm going back now."
Luo Kai didn't want to pay attention to Byron at first, but when Byron got off the carriage, he was shocked to find that the source of Thor's mental fluctuations also got off the carriage.
"Wait, Senior Byron," Luo Kai confirmed again in disbelief, "Why does Thor's spiritual power source overlap with yours? Is he hiding in you?"
Byron has always been a loner. Luo Kai doesn't know much about him. He only heard that he has some skills. Although he has just become a third-level apprentice, his positioning device is very special and very suitable for him. So as soon as he entered the third level, he became one of the top ones.
This is the importance of the locator.
The third-level apprentices who advanced through unsuitable locators were level three apprentices with hidden dangers all over their bodies. There were many problems and contaminations.
Those who advance to level three through ordinary locators can only become ordinary level three apprentices. Becoming a formal wizard has become a dream they only dare to dream when they lie in bed at night.
Therefore, Luo Kai is always cautious in front of Byron, who has a special locator.
Byron did not show any dissatisfaction in the face of Luo Kai's suspicion, he even nodded.
"If you mean Thor in a broad sense... he is partly me."
Hearing Byron's words, Luo Kai frowned, while Jero raised the corners of his mouth excitedly.
Byron stretched out his hand, and a grayish-white little finger was lying quietly in the palm of his hand.
Looking at that finger, Luo Kai's eyes gradually widened.
"Sol's little finger fell off, and I kept it temporarily. He told me that his little finger has not been very strong since he came back from mentor Anze last time."
