Chapter 458 Archaeological City
Thor originally wanted to continue to ride the airship for free under the name of Mentor Gorza.
But while he was waiting on the platform, he suddenly heard some wizards discussing the collapse of the wizard tower and Gorza's promotion to the third level, and his departure from the State continent after a massacre on the border between Kma and Knas.
After thinking for a moment, Thor asked the driver Marsh to turn the car around and leave the airship platform.
Fortunately, it doesn’t take a month to get from here to the ancient city of Archaeoster where Baidong College is located. At Marsh’s driving speed, it will take about ten days to get there.
Archaost is also a coastal city, but the area between it and Bluewater City is not as prosperous. It is mostly wasteland and high mountain forests.
In some places, abnormal smoke was even coming out.
I wonder if there are wizards conducting experiments there that damage the environment.
This world doesn't care about environmental protection. The special pollution produced by wizards often turns a wilderness into a dead land. The only thing that can restrict them is some large wizard forces. If you conduct extremely destructive experiments within the scope of these forces, you will be fined or even have your experimental results confiscated.
But as far as Thor knew, there was one place without limits: No Man's Land.
In the no-man's land, no one will care whether you damage the environment or not, but if your experiment interferes with others, they may come and kill you directly.
It is also because of this unscrupulous experiment, coupled with the subsequent pollution, that the unowned land is full of dangers and death crises may occur at any time.
But such a place is very suitable for cheaters like Thor.
Because he has already made the decision to go to Chuishou Valley to train his own wizard tower, Thor has been learning about Chuishou Valley recently.
However, these data are intermittent and very one-sided. The recorder of one of the notebooks wrote at the end of the page:
[In fact, I also know that these statistics are useless. The Borderlands is a place that changes at any time. Maybe the Guoguo Manor that I went to this time was relatively safe, but next time it will become a dead place full of monsters. ]
【But I still choose to record it. 】
[After all, before a person dies, it is better to leave something behind in this world. ]
There was some dark brown stain on the last page of this notebook.
Thor did a component analysis experiment and found that it was just ordinary blood.
It was getting dark, and Thor closed his notebook and took out the broken wine glass and rusty silver pocket watch.
These two things were Thor's biggest physical gains from his trip to Blue Water Bay.
Among them, the silver pocket watch is even rarer than Nephrite's famous witchcraft props.
After all, the diary only gave a hint about the silver pocket watch.
In addition to learning basic witchcraft knowledge, Thor has been studying these two things these days.
He placed different spirits and soul fragments in the broken wine glass to study what the spirit would look like after being broken and whether there would be any by-products.
But I don’t know if it’s because the dosage is not enough, the time is too short, or the activation method is wrong. Anyway, the spirit in the cup is still floating leisurely, with no sign of being shattered.
Thor put away the broken wine glass and took out the silver pocket watch to continue checking.
The diary mentioned the word "chaos" in the hint, which made Thor suspect that the silver pocket watch might also be the key to a certain world.
But to activate the silver pocket watch, you also need a key.
The diary also told Thor that the key was with him, so Thor took out some props from his body for analysis.
He was just analyzing it and didn't actually try to open the silver pocket watch. After all, he didn't want to visit another world right now.
Today he was rummaging through his bag and suddenly saw something.
Thor reached in and took out the crying face and smiling face gold coins.
When Mochimochi lent him this gold coin, he said it was a witchcraft prop from the last era. It could be used for short-distance communication.
But its real purpose is to exchange the spatial positions of the two holders of the gold coin.
It is a very rare space item.
It is very useful whether for self-rescue or for harming others.
Thor gently tossed two gold coins, and they made a crisp sound when they collided in the air.
When two gold coins collide, careful observation will reveal that the space around them is slightly distorted.
"The effects of these two gold coins are related to space, so is it possible to activate a key on the world side?"
Thor caught the gold coin steadily, then looked at the silver pocket watch held by Agu.
The pocket watch was open, and the hour and minute hands were still moving at an irregular speed.
Thor held the gold coin, and whether he moved it closer or further away, or knocked it, there was no other change in the hands of the pocket watch.
Despite this, Thor did not immediately change the props like he did in previous experiments. Instead, he began to carefully record the experimental results.
He intuitively felt that he had guessed right this time.
Now we need to consider how to determine it.
There is no need to rush about this. We can just wait for him to find a place to settle down temporarily and then hand it over to other consciousnesses to experiment with.
With a clear direction, Thor put away the crying face and smiling face gold coins with satisfaction and continued to let Agu hold the silver pocket watch.
He closed his eyes and began to meditate, and confirmed once again that when he arrived at the prosperous city of Archaeoster, he would first look for a meditation method that suited him.
Several consciousnesses had their own meditation methods when they were alive, but none of them was more suitable for Thor than the Erosion Map.
Therefore, he is still using the meditation method suitable for second-level apprentices.
The efficiency of restoring magic power is indeed low.
Fortunately, he usually relies mainly on mental strength in combat, and battles are quick and decisive, so the speed of magic power recovery is not important.
It is indeed a little different.
Three days later, Thor and his party finally left the deserted coastal road. Villages and towns without walls began to appear nearby.
But these places all have one thing in common, which is that they are sparsely populated.
There seemed to be quite a few houses, but when it was time for dinner, there was hardly any smoke rising from cooking fires.
Relying on his experience of frequent travels, Marsh found a small town with relatively good conditions and drove in.
Thor looked around and found that many houses along the street were locked. The locks were also covered with dust, and it was obvious that the owners of the houses had not returned for a long time.
The carriage finally stopped in front of a tavern.
The sign over the tavern read Traveler's Home.
Thor and Agu got out of the car and walked to the door, but no one came out to greet them.
He pushed open the half-open door and saw that the entire hall was empty without a single guest.
A big boy, obviously dressed as a waiter, was sitting on a stool in the corner of the hall, holding a book and reading it intently.
At the bar at the innermost part of the hall, there was a slightly plump middle-aged man...who was actually reading a book.
The sound of the door being pushed open didn't even wake them up.
Do people here like to study so much? Thor appeared silently beside the servant boy and looked down at the book in his hand.
"Farmer Little John: City life is hard, and the noble lady is too clingy"
Thor:?!
For the first time, Thor had the urge to rub his eyes.
What did he see? A fantasy novel about the wizarding world? No, this book doesn't even touch on wizards.
"Oh, sorry, both guests."
At this time, the boss behind the bar finally saw Thor and the others, put the book on the table, and trotted over around the bar.
Thor took a quick glance and found that the boss was reading the same book as the servant.
The boss ran out, and the servant was naturally awakened. He carefully put a page of the book in it and then stood up.
"Would you like a meal or a night's lodging?"
Agu took the initiative to answer: "Stay for one night, do you have a yard here?"
"Yes." The boy replied, "The yard next door is available. The family just moved out less than a month ago. I can help you clean up in an hour."
"Just moved out?" Thor's eyes flashed, and he was in no hurry to move in. He sat directly opposite the boy, looking at the boss and the boy at the same time.
"The people in your town...didn't all move to Ancient City?"
