Chapter 343 People are scary
Flying is a second-level magic that Thor learned during his time studying the container.
This is a frequently used auxiliary witchcraft that almost every apprentice who enters the third level will learn.
Almost all the third-level apprentices Thor knows how to do it. The only one who hasn't mastered it yet is probably Senior Byron, who has a very strange way of floating.
Thor's body remained steadily half a meter above the sea surface, and then moved forward quickly.
It’s just that his flying skills are not yet that proficient, so he usually just flies in a straight line.
Moving away from the coast, he came to deeper areas.
A thin layer of fog rose on the sea.
The boundary between the night sky and the sea has become completely blurred, and Thor seems to be heading towards a deep, bottomless black hole.
The sound of the waves gradually subsided as he moved away from the shore.
The whole world became quiet.
East, west, south, north, up, down, left, and right, it seemed as if he was the only one left in the world.
If it weren't for the nightmare butterflies that occasionally slipped across his sight, Thor would probably have the strange feeling that he was the only one left in the world.
But that’s not the case at all now.
Because that silver butterfly is also a little chatterbox!
"Brother Sol, Brother Sol, there are so few fish here!"
When there was no one around, Penny's attribute became more obvious.
Fortunately, her voice is still very nice. The little girl's voice is soft and cute, not annoying to listen to.
"Brother Thor, if a soul tide appears later, are you going to inject the energy tube of the soul fragment into Herman's consciousness? He will go crazy."
"It's not a direct injection." Thor would naturally filter it through the diary, but there was no need to tell Penny the specific process.
Thor was already far away from the coast, and the figures on the shore were no longer clear.
"This should be the place where the soul tide will first appear."
Sea fish drowned and dead bodies came to shore.
Thor lowered his head, and the black tentacles appeared again, hanging down the hem of his clothes and gently stirring the sea water.
After a few minutes, Thor retracted his tentacles and shook off the water droplets on his hands.
"The concentration of soul fragments has not increased, but is still decreasing. Under the current environmental conditions, it is impossible for a large-scale vengeful spirit force field to form."
Thor looked up. The dark clouds were almost pressing down on him, and the wind off the sea made it impossible for him to put on his hood.
"However, all the signs are very similar to the environmental conditions that are rumored to cause soul tides...but why is the concentration of soul fragments decreasing?"
Just as Thor was wondering, he suddenly felt something floating up from under the sea.
A huge wave of magical power swept over.
Thor retreated fifty meters in an instant and activated the spiritual armor technique.
He stared closely at the surface of the sea, trying to see what was sending out the danger signal.
"Could it be the vanguard of the Soul Tide?"
Then, Thor vaguely saw a huge spherical object floating up, not very fast, and slowly approaching the water surface.
Since the opponent did not launch an attack, Thor did not move.
It was dark, and Thor could vaguely see a sphere underwater that was about one person tall and seemed to have four tentacles, which were thin and short compared to the center of the sphere.
A dark black light appeared in Thor's palm, ready to go.
Then, the strange sphere finally floated to the surface of the sea, revealing its true appearance that had expanded and stretched to its limit.
Thor: “…”
The sphere slowly turned, aiming its twisted purple features at Thor.
"Um?"
When the dim light faded, Thor raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, saying with great sadness: "Senior, could you please stop being such a monster?"
The huge sphere began to shrink and slowly turned from a ball into a person.
The purple color on the surface of the skin faded, revealing its pale original appearance.
Byron sat on the heaving sea and raised a hand to greet Thor, "Yeah!"
Senior Byron couldn't speak again. Needless to say, he must have absorbed the evil spirit again, and in order to prevent himself from exploding due to the internal pressure, he had to keep silent for a long time.
At the same time, he had to be careful not to get hurt. However, Byron's skin had a strong ability to heal itself, so he didn't have to worry about minor injuries.
Five minutes later, Thor used the algae to carry Byron, and the two of them climbed onto a huge reef far away from the coast.
There is a concave hole on the reef, which is obviously artificially dug and was just dug in the past few days.
"Senior, have you been here for a long time?"
Byron nodded, the moisture on his body evaporated instantly, and then he stretched out his hand and made a "5".
"Yes, it's not surprising that Senior would come here to look for evil spirits. When you went into the water, did you find something under the water?"
Byron stretched out his hand and gestured.
Thor looked at it for a long time and relied on the tacit understanding between the two of them over the years to roughly understand what the other party meant.
"You mean, this place has been like this for five consecutive days, but there has been no real soul tide. You think there is something wrong underwater, so you try to dive?"
Penny: "Um...Brother Thor, how did you interpret it?"
Thor raised his hand and waved it casually beside his ear, as if to shoo away a mosquito.
"Did you find anything, Senior?"
Byron nodded. He had made some discoveries in the past few days.
He stretched out his hand and drew in the air.
"Ship?" Thor deciphered it, and suddenly remembered Parker's invitation to him to form a team. "Ghost Ship?"
But Byron on the opposite side shook his head.
Thor turned around and looked at the sea as deep as ink, and his gaze gradually shifted to below the water surface.
"...a sunken ship?"
"Um."
Byron first pointed at Thor, then moved his hand under the water. Thor understood that the senior wanted him to go down and see for himself.
"Okay, I'll go take a look. Senior, you can rest here and keep watch for me."
Thor took off his cloak, which might have hindered his movement underwater, revealing a linen shirt and black trousers underneath.
"By the way, senior, there are two wandering wizard apprentices on the shore, one is level three and the other is level two. Be careful."
Thor asked Byron to be careful to express his affirmation of the strength of the two wandering apprentices.
Byron nodded, and then the man's body suddenly shrank and sat in the newly dug pit. He then covered himself with Thor's black cloak and completely became part of the reef.
Immediately afterwards, Byron restrained the magical fluctuations in his body, and Thor instantly lost his spiritual perception of him.
"It seems that Senior Byron's strength has really improved a lot. It seems that his risky move of taking the evil spirit into his body was very useful."
Thor didn't hesitate any longer, turned around and jumped into the sea.
As soon as he entered the water, Thor activated the spiritual armor technique, and at the same time, several black tentacles flew out from the back of his neck.
Although Xiaozao is a demonic creature with earth attribute, its original form is a swamp, so it can swim easily in water.
Thor felt as if he was being pushed forward without him having to exert any effort at all.
He only needs to be responsible for adjusting the direction in front.
From time to time, a silver shadow flashed by in the sight. It was the curious figure of the Nightmare Butterfly.
There wasn't much light above the sea to begin with, and the darkness became thicker as one went deeper into the water.
The pressure of the sea water began to affect the spiritual armor technique, and the consumption of magic power was also increasing.
Thor estimated the time he had left to dive, slightly increased his speed, and continued to dive along the direction where Senior Byron had just surfaced.
When there was no longer any light in sight, Thor prepared to expend some more magic power to cast a few more light spells.
But at this moment, a few faint white lights appeared in front of his eyes. The white lights became more and more, just like fireflies hiding in the bushes in the middle of the night, suddenly flying up and then quickly dispersing after being disturbed by the outside world.
So, the abyss in front of Thor turned into the Milky Way.
"What a nice view!"
He first sighed, then was surprised.
"What is this? Are these... soul fragments?"
The second and third updates will be before 10pm.
