Chapter 42 Let's See What Witchcraft Is
"Sid" slowly loosened Brown's fist and did not answer his question. He just asked: "Do you remember why I asked you to kill Saul?"
Brown felt his whole body was burning, and the excitement left him no time to think.
"Because that brat Thor offended you."
"Then why don't I just kill him?"
This time Brown hesitated. "Because the servants are the property of the tower owner?"
"Is this all you can think of? Useless stuff."
Sid yelled angrily and turned to leave.
Brown knew that the opportunity was fleeting, so he quickly blurted out all the random thoughts he had been having.
"Because, because you can't kill him with your own hands, sir."
"Sid" finally stopped and turned around with a satisfied look on his face.
"You, guessed it?"
Brown felt like his whole body was bubbling.
He was thinking, if he passed this test, would he be able to become Lord Cid's exclusive servant? And then, with time, he would be on the path to becoming a wizard.
"A little guess, sir."
"Tell me what you guessed, let me see if there is any need for you to be used any further." "Sid" crossed his arms.
Brown smiled in surprise. "When I asked you if you wanted to take Thor to the tenth floor and let you do it yourself, you whispered, 'If I could do it myself, why would I need to ask you?'"
"Well, anything else?"
"My Lord, you asked me to keep an eye out for a red hardcover book on Thor's body or in any place he usually stays after he dies. If I see one, I must not let anyone touch it or find it."
Brown swallowed his saliva. He felt his mouth was very dry and wanted to drink water, but he didn't have the energy to find water now. "My Lord, you want to kill Thor just to find that hardcover book, right?"
Brown licked his lips. His mouth was too dry, but his tongue was not moist enough and instead made his lips burn with pain.
"...You are so smart." Sid sighed, and then asked softly, "Do you want to experience the charm of witchcraft?"
Brown immediately replied enthusiastically: "I do, sir, I do very much, I dream about it."
Sid's mouth curled up slightly.
"Then look down."
Brown lowered his head hesitantly, his pupils shrinking suddenly.
His body was smoking.
Flames peeked out from several charred holes, licking his skin and his clothes.
Brown's brain went into a state of paralysis, and he couldn't figure out what was going on.
He looked up to ask for help from Sid.
A fist made of bones appeared before my eyes.
“Crack!”
Saul punched Brown's nose bone to the back of his head.
He straightened up and watched the flames pouring from Brown's throat.
Level 0 witchcraft, despairing gaze.
Witchcraft props, the eyes of phantom sound.
Level 0 witchcraft, burning breath.
Thor took a breath, good, just in time to use up all his magic power.
So much so that in the end he could only rely on physical attacks to stop Brown's wailing.
He shook his left hand, brushing off the blood and flesh on the bones, and turned to look at his left shoulder.
"A hardcover book? A diary? Will you be free of it after I die?"
The hardcover book ignored Thor and quietly floated over his left shoulder, watching the show.
Looking at the gradually burning flames, before the flames licked Brown's fingertips, Thor reached out and pulled out the small scented bead on it.
"This thing should be given to him by Sid. It did not cause a fatal reaction. However, it seems to contain a visceral beetle."
Thor sniffed the scent of the small scent beads again.
"It's wrapped in a kind of wax that smells like corpse wax."
Corpse wax has a small ability to suppress ghosts. But its effect can only last about three months. Once the three-month shelf life is up, the corpse wax will melt on its own.
At that time, the beetles inside will run out, drill into the body of the person closest to him, and frantically devour his internal organs until he dies of starvation.
Thor shook his index finger, causing the small scented bead tied with a black rope to sway continuously on his fingertips, and finally raised his hand and threw it into the flames.
The flames melted the small incense bead and burned it to ashes before the beetle regained consciousness.
This was Thor's first time killing someone, and sadly he felt no qualms.
The Desperate Gaze and the Phantom Sound Eyes do not have the ability to spy on other people's thoughts.
But judging from the few words Brown said when he fell into a hallucination of fear, the guy in front of him was most likely not a human.
The flame of the scorching breath cannot turn into a raging fire and will go out on its own after burning for a period of time.
Thor looked down and saw that the man who had once oppressed him and pushed him to death many times had turned into a ball of charcoal.
He stepped over Brown's body.
…
The early morning sun could not penetrate the thick stone walls of the wizard tower.
The morning and evening in the tower can only be distinguished by the brightness of the candlesticks.
The candle in the Gorza Wizard Tower is always burning, and no one knows what its fuel is made of.
A group of people gathered on the ramp between the sixth and seventh floors of the West Tower, whispering about the charred body stuck in the ramp.
The butler came hurriedly with several servants.
While bowing and apologizing to the apprentices, he ordered the servants to clean up immediately.
Sid was walking down the slope, and when he saw that his way was blocked again, he frowned in displeasure.
"Have you never seen a dead person? Get out of the way."
The second-level apprentice got angry, and the first-level apprentices immediately scattered.
Sid walked past the butler who was lying on the ground, ignoring the butler who kept bowing, and finally caught a glimpse of the corpse on the ground out of the corner of his eye.
He paused.
The body was unrecognizable, but the scent on it was from the corpse wax he had made himself.
Brown was the dead one?
West Germany didn't care about the death of its former little brother.
Anyway, Brown either died from the weirdness in the tower or died from the beetle bites not long after.
Sid continued to walk down carelessly, and met a man walking slowly upwards.
Thor raised his head and smiled at Sid who was coming towards him.
"Good morning, Senior."
Sid paused and watched Thor turn the corner into the corridor on the sixth floor.
He turned around to look at the charred corpse, and the corners of his eyes twitched violently.
When he looked back, the expression on Sid's face had become terrifyingly gloomy.
He felt offended.
Would a garbage dump rat dare to bare its teeth at him?
There was just one thing that Sid couldn't figure out.
Isn't Thor's major in dark element? How come he knows fire element witchcraft? A few days later.
Thor sat in front of the homemade experimental table in the morgue, organizing his recent learning experiences.
The transformation of the witch body is very important, but the reserve of basic knowledge cannot be relaxed either.
Now Thor has mastered three level 0 sorceries.
If other people knew, they would probably be shocked.
At present, only Keli has a vague understanding of Thor's learning progress - this is also the reason why Keli has dark circles under her eyes.
But even the well-known genius Keli can only release one level 0 witchcraft, the flash spell, which has no direct killing power.
This is mainly because Kelly's control over compound runes is not as thorough as Thor's.
Now, Thor is about to start learning the fourth level of level 0 witchcraft.
If it were other apprentices, they would generally not learn so many witchcrafts.
The normal process is to master one witchcraft first, then practice it for a long time to form the inertia of muscles and consciousness, and then try the next witchcraft.
Because learning multiple witchcrafts at the same time can easily cause rune confusion.
Especially with compound runes, if you are not careful you can easily confuse two runes that are extremely similar but actually completely different.
The minimum cost of getting the rune wrong is mental damage, which will cause you headaches for a few days.
It hurts so much that I can't even read.
What's even more terrifying is that failure to construct a spell model within the spirit body when casting a spell may even cause the spell to backfire.
The most serious cases can result in backlash and death.
What makes Thor better than others is that they can remember pictures, distances and angles.
He memorized the coordinates.
The more advanced thing would be to memorize the formulas, but unfortunately he doesn't know how to do it.
Thank you all for your support and votes, the bug has been caught.
If you have any opinions about the plot setting, you can raise them. I will read it through with great pain and try my best to make up for it. Please forgive me if I can't make up for it, haha (End of this chapter)
