Chapter 447: Under the Sea
After Thor landed, he ran towards the sea without delay.
At this time, Gudo had been at sea for some time.
"Brother Thor, my sensitivity to the phosphorus powder is blocked by something. Has he discovered us?" Penny suddenly reminded Thor.
Thor kept moving, thinking for a while, and said, "No, it should be the sea that is blocking the induction."
He thought of the glowing fragments of evil spirits on the seabed.
Although he was surprised at the number of soul fragments on the seabed at that time, he just thought it was because too many people died here.
Now that I think about it, there must be a wizard who fanned the flames. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the death of an ordinary person to cause so many vengeful spirits.
Under normal circumstances, after an ordinary person dies, his soul will quickly dissipate due to his fragile mental strength.
But wizards can seize the brief moment before ordinary people's souls dissipate and forcibly turn them into vengeful spirits.
The magic circle for extracting evil spirits discovered by Thor can also do it.
When Thor arrived at the seaside, he did not jump into the water like Gudo, but flew directly over the sea.
Gudo went underwater at the beginning, using the fragments of vengeful spirits in the sea to cover his tracks, and was very cautious all the way.
And as long as Thor doesn't enter the water, he can use the power of the soul fragments in the sea to block the breath of his pursuit, so his pursuit can be said to be aboveboard.
Even Thor's shadow cast on the sea surface turned into a blurry shadow. If someone looked from below, they would just think it was a big fish or a ship.
This is the Web of Shadows, also a minor level 0 sorcery.
The higher Thor's level, the easier it was for him to master low-level witchcraft. For example, he had basically mastered all the level 0 and 1 witchcraft as long as they were available for exchange in the registration room.
But he didn't know many tier 2 and tier 3 spells. The only tier 3 spells he knew were Shadow Binding and the frontal attack spell Flame Arrow, which he had only started to research on the road after leaving the wizard tower.
However, many formal wizards generally only master two or three level 3 magic. The higher the level of magic, the more difficult it is to exchange.
There were only three types that could be exchanged in the registration room of the Wizard Tower, so Thor naturally copied all of them and took them away.
If he wants to learn new witchcraft in the future, besides exchanging with other forces, he can also look for complete witchcraft notes that have been lost.
It's difficult either way.
But Thor had one advantage—he could learn from the consciousness within the pages of the book.
So, if he wanted to learn that kind of witchcraft, he could find a way to obtain the soul of a wizard who specialized in that element.
Ordinary wizards have no way of obtaining such a conscious soul.
Of course, if the consciousness body wants to write out a set of high-level witchcraft rune structures in full, the soul energy required is also enormous. If Thor does not provide supplements, the consciousness body may not be able to hold on and dissipate before the retelling is complete.
Thor activated his magic power and flew faster and faster over the sea, completely ignoring the location of Gudo below.
"Luo Kai, just tell me where the source of the soul tide under the sea is." Thor didn't plan to follow Gudo this time.
The other party came here secretly, definitely not for those few soul fragments floating in the sea.
He will definitely go to the place where souls are most densely populated.
The birthplace of the soul tide!
Although Luo Kai was reluctant, he made it very clear.
Now the energy contained in Luo Kai's pages is getting less and less and is about to disappear.
No matter how powerful he is, he is only a level 2 apprentice after all. The consequence of suppressing his strength is that he does not have enough mental strength. Even if he turns into a page of a book, he cannot last long.
Based on Luo Kai's description, Thor used flying skills to quickly locate the location.
He discovered that this was very close to the sea where he and Byron had discovered the gray matter.
"Splash!" Thor dived into the water without hesitation.
This place is farther away from the coast, and the dark clouds above our heads are beginning to become thinner.
If Luo Kai hadn't pointed it out, it would have been hard for Thor to imagine that this place, where the environment was about to return to normal, would be the birthplace of the soul tide.
But as he gradually went deeper into the sea, he found that only the surface was clear water, while the water near the bottom of the sea was even darker than the clouds above his head.
But apart from the environment becoming dim, Thor did not find a single soul fragment.
However, although Luo Kai likes to lie, the diary will make him tell the truth.
Thor didn't hesitate and continued to sink.
He first looked around carefully, but did not find any trace of Gudo.
The other party was advancing underwater, and his main skill was not water elemental witchcraft, so his advancing speed was definitely not as fast as Thor's flying speed.
Thor continued to descend, and finally his hands touched the seabed.
"It's also very clean here. Although there are some ghost fragments, they are obviously not as many as in the shipwreck, and there is no light."
Thor began to grope on the ground, carefully turning over the water plants and stones.
"Brother Thor, I can sense my phosphorus powder again. Gudo may appear soon!" Penny suddenly reminded him.
Thor didn't say anything. His right hand trembled and he suddenly pulled it back as if he had been electrocuted.
"It's here!" He confirmed the location of a cave.
The entrance to the cave was very narrow, hidden in the cracks of the rocks, and covered with seaweed and dust. It would be difficult to find it unless you felt around carefully like Thor did.
Thor curled his lips into a smile and slowly turned his head to look in the direction where Gudo was coming from.
…
It took about five minutes for Guduo to reach the bottom of the sea.
He held an air bladder-like air bag in his mouth, looked around blankly, and then began to grope and flip on the seabed like Thor.
He was obviously not very familiar with the structure here, and even had to float to the surface to take a breath.
That fish bladder-like air sac can actively absorb and compress the outside air, so Gudo can stay under the sea for such a long time.
After taking a breath, Gudo continued to explore the seabed. Finally, he found a cave on the seabed.
The cave was very narrow, and it seemed that only a child could pass through it, but after finding the cave, Gudo began to squeeze in. His muscles compressed little by little, and he turned into a skinny man again.
Just like that, although it was a bit difficult, he still squeezed in with his head down.
After moving forward three or four meters while rubbing against the reefs, the view below suddenly became clear.
It changed from a narrow cave to one where one could stretch their arms freely.
And here are crowded and filled with soul fragments.
Although the soul fragments here do not glow, the malice emanating from them is more obvious.
When Gudo entered the wide cave from the narrow cave, it was as if he had penetrated a barrier, and his brain was suddenly hit by whistling and whimpering sounds.
"There are so many fragments of evil spirits here!" After a few seconds, Guduo regained consciousness.
He was not a wizard who specialized in the attributes of light or darkness. Facing the impact of so many fragments of evil spirits, even though he was already a formal wizard, he still felt very uncomfortable.
"Move faster. I'm afraid a new round of soul tide is about to erupt here."
Gudo continued to sink.
The numerous soul fragments here have begun to affect the substance, obstructing his vision.
There was a vast expanse of gray everywhere, and at the same time, there were distorted screams emanating from it.
Often, incomplete and distorted facial features would rush in front of Gudo, and then be swept away by the undercurrents in the sea.
Guduo didn't dare to take a closer look at those evil spirits. He just focused on sinking down, even narrowing his eyes slightly, not daring to be affected by more bad influences.
The Battle of Blue Water Bay a hundred years ago also buried many official wizards.
Finally, Gudo touched the bottom of the cave.
There were actually several caves at the bottom of the cave, going deeper into the darker seabed. But Gudo didn't go down any further.
He relied on his mental strength to barely lock onto a position, and with his hands he pushed aside the slippery seaweed and felt an uneven area.
A smile finally appeared on his face.
“Found it!”
