Chapter 456: Terrifying Thoughts
Thor and everyone around him who was still alive and conscious were shocked.
How could a second-level person die just like that?
Penny flew over, carefully approaching Jasim's body, and then circled over the remaining pool of slime on Kalon.
"Brother Thor, they are all dead."
Only then did Thor walk over and squat beside Jasim.
"This Jasim is a second-level wizard after all. What is the time limit? How can he die instantly?"
"Brother Thor, could this be what Agu was talking about, the upper limit of life?"
"It is indeed possible. But when it comes to something that involves life, it is difficult for people to sacrifice themselves so decisively."
Thor got anxious when he thought of Jasim on the airship, as if he didn't have enough time.
Did he know at that time that his time limit was up? So after confirming that Thor was not his target enemy, he immediately left to chase after the others?
Saul reached out and grabbed Jasim's left arm.
Just now he looked at his left arm and confirmed that his time limit was up.
But when Thor checked his left arm, whether he checked for mental vibrations, magical vibrations, or used his semi-immersive meditation method, he found nothing.
"Perhaps after his death, the things that once worked on him disappeared. Now the semi-immersive meditation method combined with the erosion map can find fewer and fewer anomalies. It's time to find a better meditation method."
Thor was promoted to a formal wizard, but he had not changed his meditation method. Firstly, he was promoted too quickly and had no time to find a suitable meditation diagram. Secondly, he was reluctant to give up the ability brought by the erosion diagram.
Both the semi-immersion meditation method and the erosion map out-of-body method have played a great role in his adventurous career.
If he were to adopt a new meditation method, it would be best if he could retain these two abilities, or at least retain a convenient way for him to leave his body.
Because of the observation ability of semi-immersive meditation, the nightmare butterfly can be used as a substitute.
"However, if you want to find out what happened to Jasim, I have another way."
Thor stood up again, took out the tools for drawing witchcraft circles from his bag, and began to summon spirits on the spot.
Well, soul extraction.
When he started to draw, the survivors around him, including Lord McKen in the banquet hall, came out with lingering fear.
At first, City Lord McKen's legs were so weak that he could hardly stand, and he needed the support of his guards to walk out.
For many years, while getting along with the "harmless" wizard Charon, he never felt the danger of wizards, so much so that he almost forgot how ruthless real wizards were when they harvested lives.
And how powerless ordinary people are.
Even a knight or a great knight could not be killed by the black blade fragment from the wizard in the sky just now.
This world is indeed still a world of wizards! He walked over and saw Thor drawing a magic circle. He mustered up his courage, pushed aside the guards who were supporting him, and walked forward to ask, "Lord Thor, what should we do now? Is there anything I can do?"
Thor stopped and turned around to look. He could clearly see the fear in Lord McKen's eyes.
He smiled and tried to calm the other person down, saying, "I don't need to do that. Go and sort out the others. The noise just now will probably spread outside the City Lord's Mansion. If it's not handled in time, it will cause panic."
"Oh, okay." McKen agreed, but he didn't move his legs. "Lord Thor, will there be pollution here?"
Thor looked at the black slime beside him. "Normally, that won't happen, but we can't rule out the possibility that it will attract something from somewhere else. I'll deal with it briefly. I suggest that no one enter this courtyard for the next ten years."
"Okay, okay." McKeon agreed more readily this time. "I'll have everyone evacuate now. If you need anything, you can always call us."
After saying that, McKen seemed to have regained his status as the city lord, directing everyone to help the wounded and carry the dead bodies, and soon the courtyard was cleared.
Moreover, this is just a courtyard used for banquets, and closing it off for ten years will not affect McCann's other work.
Of course, if he is still worried, he can simply change the house to be used as the city lord's residence.
After all, in Blue Water City, five or six out of ten houses are empty.
After everyone around had evacuated, Thor's soul extraction array was completed.
He threw the materials in his hand back into the bag and moved Cassim's body to the magic circle.
Then, Thor also walked into the magic circle, made a casting gesture with his hands in front of his chest, and white flames immediately rose under his feet.
The flames flowed like water waves, from burning fiercely to slowly extinguishing.
Thor opened his eyes again and slowly frowned.
"Nothing was found. Jasim's suicide method shattered his soul. Apart from some energy, he does not have a complete consciousness."
In fact, Thor could also use soul fishing to try to absorb Jasim's spirit at the moment of his death.
But, haha, who knows if there are any other hidden dangers?
If there is a time bomb buried in the other person's spirit, then Thor would lose more than he gains.
For a second-level wizard, there are still too many variables.
"Jasim should also know this, so he gave me that knowledge directly before he died." Thor once again felt the little black snake in his spirit body trying to reduce its presence, and shook his head, "Strong people, strong organization."
He withdrew from the magic circle, raised his hand and released two fireballs, burning the remaining spirit of Kalon and the body of Jasim to ashes.
After dealing with these issues, Thor inspected the courtyard and banquet hall again, and only left after confirming that there were no vengeful spirits.
Outside the door, City Lord Mike was guarding with his men and several large boxes, waiting eagerly.
When he saw Thor coming out, he stepped forward and said, "Lord Thor, I have had people move all the things from Caron's residence here. Now his servants can't and dare not enter his laboratory. Why don't you come and see if there is any problem? If there is anything you need, please take it with you. We can't use the wizard's things."
The city lord McKen had already helped Thor clean up the spoils.
However, Thor felt that since Kalon was hiding here under an assumed name and concealing his strength, there might not be anything good in his open residence.
The facts were just as he expected. Apart from dozens of magic crystals and some low-level witchcraft materials, Thor had no other gains.
Those study experiment notes were obviously used to fool low-level apprentices, so Thor just glanced at them and threw them away.
Afterwards, Thor firmly refused Lord McKen's request to stay another night.
After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Mash, who was hiding in the alley opposite, immediately drove the carriage over.
After getting in the car, Thor walked two more blocks before he saw the car door open and close, and Agu got in.
"Master, I just discovered a powerful magical fluctuation that appeared in the City Lord's Mansion and then disappeared. I separated from Mash and thought about going to pick you up. After waiting for a while, I saw someone coming out to appease the civilians, so I asked Mash to wait for you at the door."
"Jasim just showed up at the City Lord's Mansion." Thor recounted his experience at the City Lord's Mansion, and then Agu, "Do you know what the time limit is? What is the Judgment Court?"
Agu shook his head in embarrassment, "This is the first time I've heard of a time limit, too."
"I have heard of the name Tribunal, but I don't know the specific information. Tribunal and time limit should be words from the Nephrite continent. That continent is further south and is said to be relatively closed. It is also far away from the State continent, so few people come here."
Thor leaned his head against the window and saw through the gap that many residents walked out of their homes with uneasy looks and looked in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
"If Jasim committed suicide because his body was controlled, then it means that the Tribunal can at least extend its reach to the State Continent. But if Jasim was not controlled, then this matter is even more terrifying if you think about it carefully."
