Chapter 345 New Discovery
Byron pulled Thor ashore. He found that Thor's mental body and magic power were not stable, so he took the initiative to take over the task of treating Thor.
"Um?"
"I saw the sunken ship. And those strange glowing soul fragments."
"Yeah." Byron stretched out his hand, and a transparent narrow-necked bottle appeared in his palm.
The flask was filled with white mist, and two light sources were floating up and down.
Thor looked at Byron's bottle and silently stretched out his hand. Now his arm did not deform, it was still grayish white, and it did not become a source of light.
"I collected a little bit too, but I wasted my time because of this."
"Yeah!" Byron nodded, and this time the "yeah" was a little heavier, as if warning Thor not to be greedy next time.
Thor actually found it strange.
Every time he absorbed soul fragments, he had never been contaminated by the distracting thoughts in the fragments. But this time, he was trapped for a long time before coming out, as if the diary deliberately did not absorb the distracting thoughts in the soul fragments for him immediately.
Is it because there are too many soul fragments this time?
The diary didn't give advance warning, just so Thor could get through it.
"I seemed to see a line at that time, but before I touched that line, the diary suddenly absorbed all the distracting thoughts. Was this intentional?"
What is that line? Is the diary intentionally kept out of his reach?
"I always feel that if I really touch that line, something terrible will happen... Well, at least now that I am sober, I will definitely not move."
"Hmm?" Byron didn't know what Thor was thinking. Another bottle appeared in his hand, containing a thumb-sized gray stone.
“I discovered this, too.”
Thor snapped his fingers, and the algae instantly came over and opened its big mouth, revealing the mess inside.
Thor reached into Xiaozao's mouth and took out two gray stones that were the same as the ones in Byron's hand.
When Thor got it in his hand, he realized that although this stone looked like an ordinary stone, it was mixed in the seabed and it was difficult to detect the difference with the naked eye.
But when Thor held it in his hand, he found that it was soft, like a piece of rubber.
Thor exerted a little force, and the gray stone at his fingertips cracked into two halves with a "click". But before he could observe the cross-section, the two cracked stones deformed and squirmed again, turning into two irregular but spherical shapes again.
"It's neither stone nor metal. It should be a synthetic material. There are signs of human intervention."
Byron on the opposite side nodded, and he came to the same conclusion.
But Byron seemed to have made other discoveries.
He opened the flask, poured out a grey round pellet and placed it on the reef, then took out a bottle of red solution and dropped a drop on it.
The abnormal magical fluctuations emanating from the gray matter suddenly disappeared, and then began to emit a spiritual power fluctuation.
Thor was extremely sensitive to mental power and couldn't help but move closer to take a look.
But the gray itself did not change much.
At this time, Byron shook Thor's shoulder and asked him to look at the sea.
Thor looked back and saw the black sea glowing.
First there were one or two dim light sources, then five or six, and finally a small piece of the city.
Although there are not as many as those near the shipwreck, it is enough to illuminate the ten square meters of sea area near Sol.
They seemed to be attracted by something, floating over little by little and gathering near the reef.
"This is the first time I've seen something that can attract soul fragments." Thor sighed at first, and then his heart moved.
Since gray matter can attract soul fragments, does that mean it can be accepted by souls? If it is used as a container, or used to improve the container, can it solve the problem that the spirit cannot stay in the container for a long time?
Byron did not participate in the resurrection experiment, but he also attached great importance to the properties exhibited by gray matter.
When Thor looked up, he saw Byron staring at the sea with his eyes shining.
Sol held his chin in his hand, "Senior Byron, are you trying to melt this thing into your skin?"
So, that night, the two research enthusiasts began to dive desperately, collecting gray matter, surfacing to breathe, and then going down again.
They have completely forgotten their original purpose of coming here...
Unfortunately, there was very little of this strange grey substance, and they searched all night until their magic power dropped to the alert level, but they didn't collect much.
As the dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, the sun shone dimly on the sea.
The sea, which had been dark all night, finally revealed its original color.
But there is some gray mixed in with the blue, which makes it look a bit depressing.
Senior Byron is planning to go back, and he can't wait to go back and study the newly discovered gray matter.
Thor came here to use the Soul Tide to replenish the soul fragments that had been consumed in his body. Although he didn't see the strange Soul Tide this time, he didn't regret it.
Anyway, the sea of Blue Water Bay is here and we can’t escape.
The two of them corrected themselves for a moment, replenished their magic power, restored their mental strength, and prepared to start walking back.
Thor didn't know how senior Byron, who had not yet learned how to fly, got here.
But he didn't really want to know, because he felt that knowing would reduce his SAN points. So he simply flew by himself and used Xiaozao to take Senior Byron back with him.
It just consumes a little more mana.
When Thor saw the coast, he paid special attention to the cliff where Parker and Andy were.
But he was surprised to find that the cliff had collapsed. The place where the two had been hiding had become a high mound of earth.
There was only a faint smell of blood in the pile of earth. They might have been injured, but they left alive.
"They left?"
"Yeah." Byron also looked at the collapsed cliff with a serious face, and analyzed the method and intensity of the attack through the fracture of the cliff.
Thor was alert all around, his eyes scanning every place where there might be an ambush.
"Hehehe~" the little girl's voice sounded in my mind.
Thor instantly understood that Andy and Parker might have been tricked by the trick left by the Nightmare Butterfly.
It was a terrible pit! "Senior, the enemy may have left. Let's get out of here quickly."
Byron nodded and agreed to Thor's proposal.
Not long after the two men left in secret, daybreak arrived.
Bluewater Bay has also become less dangerous.
Occasionally, some fishermen will go out to sea at this time, or pick up some sea vegetables and shellfish on the beach and reefs.
But rare food like black conch will not appear in broad daylight, otherwise the lives of the snail pickers would not become consumables.
The coast of Bluewater Bay is starting to get a little more lively.
Of course, this so-called bustle was nothing more than a change from being empty to having only three or four people.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a wrinkled suitcase carrying a huge suitcase stepped onto the beach.
Sander stared blankly at the sea, which looked extremely desolate under the huge dark clouds, and he couldn't recover for a long time.
Ever since his sister died in Bluewater Bay Port, he has never been to this place again, filled with guilt.
But when he learned from the wizard that his sister did not really die of suffocation, but her soul was swept away by the soul tide here, he rushed here without stopping.
By the time he arrived at Blue Water Bay, he had almost spent all his money.
Sander patted the rattan box and said, "Don't worry, sister. I will definitely find your soul!"
But before that, Sander must find a suitable job in Blue Water Bay to make a living.
He swore a vow by the sea and turned to rush to the city.
On the way back, Sander saw a few children from afar, about five or six, walking towards the beach in a group.
The weather had turned cold, and the children were all lightly dressed. They huddled together, holding their hands, and could hear the younger ones chattering as they walked.
The sea breeze brings some fragments of words.
"...Wizard...Be good...Remember..."
Maybe the brother inside was telling them stories about wizards, threatening them that they would be captured if they didn't obey?
Xander looked at the group of brothers and sisters with some envy, his hand unconsciously stroking the box.
"Maybe we can meet again, Midor."
