Chapter 328 Advanced Magic Array
Dusk, forest, lakeside cottage.
Thor had already closed the door of the dark room and restored the hidden magic circle on it.
Now he was sitting on the only wooden bed on the second floor of the cabin, carefully examining the witchcraft circle he had just copied.
On Thor's left hand side, the notebook containing the original soul extraction array was spread out.
"Why is there such a magic circle here?" Thor was sure that this new soul extraction magic circle had undergone great improvements.
Now, not only can we extract the vengeful spirits of ordinary people, we can even extract the spirits of wizard apprentices.
"If we use this magic circle to create vengeful spirits, we can even create evil spirits stably if the materials are suitable. My initial guess was wrong. I thought it was some unsuccessful exiled apprentice who refused to give up and continued to live near the wizard tower. But now it seems that this is clearly the base of someone, or even a certain force. Hiss..."
Thor stood up. He heard some noise outside and went downstairs immediately. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the mushroom driver who had rushed back and was about to come in with a scroll in his hand.
Seeing Thor, the driver immediately said, "Sir, I brought the agreement."
Thor took the scroll and unfolded it. There was no information of his own left on it. The Inn House didn't even have his name on the scroll. It just said that the holder of the scroll was the long-term tenant of the house.
Secular agreements naturally have no binding force on wizards. The Inn House obviously knows this and will not verify the identity of the wizard at all.
The wealthy wizards generally pay for a ten-year lease. After ten years, if the wizards who rent the house are still there, they will send someone to renew or terminate the contract.
Thor read the agreement, nodded with satisfaction, and said to the driver, "Go find a place to stay in the town, and come here every three days to deliver food."
The mushroom driver raised his head and said carefully, "Sir, I can live in the carriage, so that if you have any instructions, you can call me immediately."
But Thor shook his head firmly, "No, it's easy to hurt you by mistake if I do experiments here."
The driver said nothing more, just nodded quickly, and when he saw that Thor had no further requests, he took his leave and drove away.
What Thor didn't know was that he didn't live in the outpost town, but in an uninhabited mountain forest a mile away from the town.
There are also a few white mushrooms growing nearby.
Although he was originally just an ordinary person, after several trips to Black Castle Forest, he had gradually transcended the scope of ordinary people under the influence of witchcraft power.
Thor walked into the room with the scroll in his hand and casually threw it into the corner of the room.
Just for a moment, he wanted to leave, or run away. There might be a lot of troubles hidden in this abandoned lakeside cabin.
But after seeing the scroll, Thor changed his mind.
He knew that the magic circle hidden in the lakeside cottage was an upgraded version of the one in Mofan Town, and this magic circle was obtained by Shelly, a wandering wizard apprentice in Mofan Town, a few years ago.
After that, Shelly began to frantically use living girls to create vengeful spirits in an attempt to get promoted.
But it was obvious that someone was deceiving him.
Thor suspected that the person who deceived Shelly was the creator of the magic circle. He told Shelly that the magic circle could help him advance to the second-level apprentice, probably just to use Shelly to experiment with the magic circle for him.
Thor took out the improved version of the soul extraction array again. "The person behind the scenes must have discovered the flaws of the array through Shelly's experiment and made some changes. But there is one thing that is strange. Although this improved array can extract the soul of a wizard apprentice, the materials consumed are not cost-effective. It is not as good as the original soul extraction array."
"Could it be that the improved magic circle was abandoned here because the investment value exceeded the output?"
Regardless of whether the creator of this magic circle really gave up or pretended to give up, Thor was prepared to pretend that he had not discovered anything and see if someone would secretly find it back.
So for the next two days, Thor did not start his experiment immediately, but let Xiaozao re-station the branch in the lakeside cabin.
At the same time, he also set up a defensive witchcraft circle, pretending that he would stay here for a long time.
In addition, Xiaozao also dived into a small lake next to him while exploring underground. This lake seemed to be connected to an underground waterway, and it looked shallow, but was actually deep.
Xiao Zao dug up several corpses from the deepest bottom of the lake, including the remains of two wizard apprentices.
This also confirms that someone once used the magic circle in the lakeside cabin to conduct experiments to extract the souls of wizard apprentices.
At the same time as Xiaozao was expanding his territory, Thor was also conducting his own experiments.
He rearranged the consciousness platform formation in the largest room on the second floor of the cabin.
After two days of renovation, the new laboratory has an additional set of tables and chairs, and several wall cabinets.
Some of these things were purchased by Thor by asking the mushroom driver to go to the town, and some were assembled by him using local materials and then asked Xiaozao to assemble them.
Now, the magic circle of the consciousness platform has been built and we can start new experiments.
Thor stood in the center of the magic circle and took out a bottle of reagent. "This is the last extract of the Mosheng Fruit. If we can't find a new source of Mosheng Fruit or a substitute, the research on the 'Consciousness Battlefield' will have to be temporarily suspended."
Thor tilted his head back and swallowed the potion.
In the space of consciousness, there is still endless black starry sky surrounding the huge circular platform.
Four consciousnesses flew out of the diary in Thor's hand one by one, landed in front of him, and bowed in unison.
"Your Excellency!"*4 Then the four people posed in four different salute postures...
Thor, whose emotions had been suppressed to the extreme, allowed them to salute him expressionlessly, "After this, the consciousness platform array may not be activated for a long time."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The four consciousnesses showed four different expressions on their faces.
Thor ignored their feelings and swept his cold eyes over the four of them, "So this time, I'll try to get one of you out."
"Take him out?" A Gu's mind moved, "Master already has a plan?"
Thor turned his head and stared at Agu. "No, it's just an immature idea. And I've run out of potions. So whoever I take out this time must be prepared to never come back, and those who stay will not be able to enter the consciousness platform for a long time."
The platform immediately became quiet, and the few people who were originally ready to make some moves all calmed down.
Just as Thor was thinking about who to take away, a man stepped forward.
Herman took a step forward and said, "Master, if this is a trial experiment, I suggest you take me with you. In this way, if something unexpected happens during the experiment, your loss will be minimal."
After he said this, Thor and the other three looked at him in surprise.
Hermann was a little nervous. He knew that if he stepped forward now, he would be like a living experimenter at the initial stage of an experiment.
The risk is quite high!
But he had no choice.
Although Thor never said anything, he knew that he was lucky to survive.
The main reason Sol kept them was to use them as a repository of knowledge. Maybe the master would have other plans in the future, but for now, Herman was the least useful one.
Agu was once the administrator of the wizard tower library, and this identity alone meant a wealth of knowledge.
Morton was a second-level wizard a hundred years ago. Even if his power is greatly reduced now, the knowledge a second-level wizard possesses is beyond Herman's imagination.
An, who originally had no sense of existence, gradually awakened after merging with the evil spirit's consciousness. Compared to Thor, she still wanted to continue to dig out secrets from her.
As for Hermann himself, he was neither a dark attribute major nor a mere third-level wizard apprentice. He had even told his master all the secrets he knew about land boats.
His only remaining value now is to contribute to the construction of his master's "battlefield of consciousness".
Experiments are indeed dangerous, but in danger lies opportunity.
If he could seize this opportunity...
Herman met Thor's gaze and said, "Master, I will carry out your will and will not retreat even if my consciousness is exhausted!"
In the evening
