Chapter 370 Palace
There was still a dozen meters of distance between Thor and the two consciousnesses that was not covered by the flash dust. When Thor was about to take out the last flash dust scroll and rush the rest of the way by himself, he saw Agu's hand draw an arc in the air.
A level 2 wizardry flash dust suddenly appeared between the two sides.
He is taking the initiative to open up a channel.
With the reminder from Thor and Agu to use the flash dust, An raised his hand and ripped off his right ear. "The flash dust consumes too much magic power. I'll clear the way!"
She stretched out her hand and pointed it in Thor's direction. Her bloodstained ear instantly dissolved into plasma.
Strands of blood emerged from the plasma, spreading like hair and quickly reaching towards Thor's direction.
When Thor looked up, he saw a vast expanse of blood-colored threads coming towards him.
He didn't move, allowing himself to be covered in blood.
Those blood threads did not hurt him, but gently rolled up his waist and lifted him into the air. Other blood threads were spread all around him, guarding him.
Immediately afterwards, the blood vessels quickly contracted and Thor was taken to An and Agu.
"The Glitter Dust won't last long, let's go now!"
Although the appearance of those pale humanoids was always interrupted by the flash dust, the flash dust could only buy time but could not completely solve the problem.
Agu immediately said, "I remember the woods over there started to become sparse. We should be getting out of the woods soon."
The original locations of these pale humanoids were all covered with trees, vines or larger bushes. If they could leave the woods or find a large open space like the one where Mark had taken him to hide before, they should be able to get rid of the pale humanoids.
Glitter Dust was not considered to be of high value among the tier 2 wizardry scrolls. As for auxiliary wizardry scrolls like these, Thor put all the ones he could buy into the compressed bag to avoid any unmanageable situations in the Elf Valley.
This was also the luxury he could only do after he officially became Gorza's apprentice, with his wallet only flowing in and not out, and his financial resources significantly improved.
But now he only had one scroll of flash dust left, so in order to have a backup plan, An used blood threads to clear the way.
They ran for about ten minutes in the direction Agu pointed. Tall green plants began to reappear around them, and the crunching sound of the pale human figure's bare feet stepping on the grass finally disappeared behind them.
"Huh...Huh..." The few of them found an open space with a large distance between trees and stopped.
The faces of the three people were not particularly good.
"How are your mental bodies? Are there any signs of recovery?" Thor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked the other two.
"No," Agu's face was not very good, "My spirit body is shaking badly. I can only cast two more level 2 spells. If I cast more, I will explode on the spot."
The consciousness is hiding in the container, and it is hard to tell from the outside how bad their mental state is. If their faces have become ugly, it means that they have been greatly hurt internally.
Thor looked solemnly at An, "How are you? If you can't hold on any longer, tell me immediately and I'll take you back."
An staggered, and finally sat down on the ground. "No need... I can still hold on after taking a breath. If I go back now, I won't be able to help you at all until you leave the valley."
An looked up at Thor and tried to force out a beautiful smile, "Master, please drain my last bit of magic power~"
Seeing that An couldn't even stand steadily, Thor became a little worried. He didn't care about An's little tricks and just bent down and picked him up.
Although his spiritual body was also constantly vibrating, Thor was able to work hard to make the vibration regular.
It's easy to get used to regular vibrations, just like swinging on a swing or jumping forward on spring shoes, so Thor doesn't feel so uncomfortable.
"The long-range attacks used by those humanoids when they first appeared were never used again. Maybe that kind of attack has a cooling time." Thor held An and Agu, who was still able to move, and continued to look for a way out of the forest.
"If you encounter so many humanoids again, don't fight, run away immediately."
The two consciousnesses nodded.
The enemy seemed to be cheating, and they didn't want to fight anymore.
"Kong Sha and the others have been here for more than half a year. Unless they have been running all the time and not been caught in the kind of siege I just encountered, it is impossible for their spirit bodies to have survived until now without any problems."
Thor clenched his hands together, "There must be a way to recover from the shock, but they didn't tell me!"
He was not very angry. He had thought it through long before entering the valley. Not everyone can be as clear-headed as Senior Byron and understand the power of unity.
More people are still struggling with the idea that "as long as I run faster than you, I can live longer than you."
"Master, look!" Thor was thinking when Agu beside him suddenly pointed in a direction and shouted.
Thor looked over immediately. If groups of pale figures appeared again, they would have no choice but to run away.
But when he turned his head immediately, he saw that the not-too-sparse trees suddenly disappeared about ten meters away, and the ground turned from green to dark brown.
Like a transparent barrier, it divides the world into two halves.
Outside the barrier, the ground was dry and cracked, without a single flower or tree to be seen.
The earth was a chaotic black.
Although the sunlight can be projected onto the ground without restraint, it is completely absorbed and no reflection can be seen.
The wind also stopped abruptly at the edge of the woods, turned around the last big tree, and blew back.
"Is that the Dead Season over there?" Thor took two more steps towards the black land.
"Master, be careful. It's best not to rush into that place now." Agu hurriedly reminded from behind.
Sol said, "But we have to go and take a look. The reason why Kong Sha and her friends are better than us is because of the information gap. We can't just sit there and wait for danger to come before taking risks."
Agu nodded, then quickened his pace, moving from behind Thor to the front of his side.
He was trying to explore the way for Thor.
When they reached the edge of the forest, Thor looked forward along the clear dividing line between the green forest and the black land, and found a palace standing a few kilometers ahead.
"Is that the palace Mark mentioned?" The other side was silent, without any unusual behavior. Thor asked the diary directly in his mind, "Is the reason you want me to come here in that palace?"
The diary is silent.
"Okay, let me change the question. If I don't enter that palace, will I die?"
The diary remains quiet.
"It turns out that it has nothing to do with this most suspicious palace?" Thor's brain was working rapidly. He turned the diary to the last page with words. "They were suddenly attacked after entering the palace. Before that, it seems that no one of them died."
"Everything happened in the palace. But the diary didn't give any warning when I wasn't planning to enter the palace?"
Thor looked at the words in the diary and repeated them again.
"Crazy invited me... Could it be that the key node fell on Crazy?"
The craziest person here is none other than Kong Sha.
She had already witnessed the horror of the Forest of Four Seasons for the first time, yet she dared to gather people to enter the Forest of Four Seasons for a second time.
Not to mention the thing on Kongsha's neck now! "Although I don't know why Kongsha's face has become a complete face. But I suspect it is probably related to the elves' lost treasure!" Agu was also helping Thor analyze at this time, "But that palace is very dangerous, and we are not suitable to enter in our current state."
The face was vivid and lifelike, with skin and texture that were extremely sensitive. If Thor hadn't remembered that Kong Sha didn't look like that, he probably wouldn't have been able to recognize that the face was fake.
"Is it a human head or a headgear? Should I rescue Kong Sha or take something from her? Should I take away that strange and beautiful head?"
In fact, it would be better to enter the palace first, find out what was lost there, stop the pursuit, and then wait for the power blocking the valley to be released, and take Kong Sha and the head out directly.
But at the same time, the whole hunt was caused by the loss of treasures in the palace. If they enter the palace again, they may be like wolves walking into a tiger's den.
Even if you can run out, you will be covered in bruises.
At this moment, An in his arms suddenly tensed up.
"Master, look behind you!"
An, who was being carried by Princess Thor, was trying hard to suppress her dizziness and was alert to her surroundings. She patted Thor's chest and pointed behind her.
Thor thought something was wrong and turned around immediately, only to find a pale human figure appearing in the distance again.
Those sparse trees are gradually transforming into strange human shapes from far away to near.
Thor narrowed his eyes and ordered without hesitation: "Let's enter the Dead Season first!"
Dead season, no trees!
