Chapter 46 Add another fire, and then another
Thor waved his hand, trying to pull the hardcover book open.
He was in no mood to see any changes to the mask in his hand. He had to keep an eye on the infighting between the evil spirit and Peggy.
Because Peggy's plan to divert the blame failed, the evil spirit should have noticed something, so the two of them fought for control of the body.
He couldn't allow the two enemies to reconcile, he had to add fuel to the fire.
"Senior! What should we do? The evil spirit didn't fall for it! Do you have any way to lure it to this mask again? I promise I can catch it this time!"
One of Peggy's eyes, including the white of her eye, had turned completely black, while the other, which was still relatively normal, was bloodshot and turned to look at Thor.
"You bastard, I underestimated you!"
Thor didn't give Peggy a chance to continue speaking. He stood up with his mask pulled up and made aiming gestures from time to time.
"Senior, hurry up and force the evil spirit out. Once it comes out, I promise I can catch it with a net. Ugh... I can't kill it with the smoke!"
"Ah!!!!" Peggy's other eye also turned dark black. Her expression became more and more painful and she no longer had time to pay attention to Thor.
She pressed her hands on her eyes, as if trying to dig out her eyeballs, but in the end she could only pull her eyelids shut.
“Tear——”
Thor couldn't help but flinch and almost couldn't maintain his acting skills.
"Senior, please force it out!"
Peggy suddenly seemed to come to her senses. With blood all over her face, she turned around and yelled at Thor: "Give me the mask! Quick, or I'll kill you!"
"Okay," Thor responded immediately and threw the thing in his hand out, "Senior, catch it!"
Peggy's vision was distorted now, and she only saw Thor throwing something at her.
"This guy is smart. I'll give him a quick death later."
She reached out to take it, gripping a piece of rough-touch leather that was much larger than the mask.
“Is this my skin?”
A moment of doubt flashed through Paige's mind.
"Hurry, Senior! The mask has undergone incredible changes after being possessed by the evil spirit!"
Hearing Thor's urging, Peggy, whose brain was already a mess, had no time to think and quickly smeared the piece of leather on her face.
But as soon as the leather was on her face, Peggy realized something was wrong.
The evil spirit had no intention of being driven away. Instead, it screamed and drilled into her brain.
"ah!!!"
"Well!!!!"
"Alas!!!!"
Peggy's voice kept changing between high-pitched and low-pitched.
She knew she had been fooled again, this piece of leather was definitely not the skin on her leg.
Moreover, this piece of leather seemed to have some kind of encircling and concealing properties. After she covered her face with the leather, she found that the evil spirit that originally wanted to leave her body actually shrank back immediately!
"Bloody hell!!!!!!"
Her vocal cords were torn and she couldn't speak clearly.
Paige gave up the fight for the head, regained control of her hands, and tried to remove the leather from her face.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Thor, who had been watching from a distance, immediately pounced and pressed Peggy to the ground, covering Peggy's face tightly with both hands to prevent the yellowish leather from leaving Peggy's skin.
Yes, that piece of light yellow leather was exactly what Kongsha lent to Thor to conceal the smell of the corpse.
Thor just had a sudden inspiration and used it to shake Peggy, and he didn't expect the effect to be so good.
In short, the evil spirit must not be allowed to come out of Peggy's body.
As long as neither of you comes out, you can fight as much as you want.
“Hmm—”
Peggy has completely given up on the evil spirit that was wreaking havoc in her body, and the person she hates the most now is Thor.
She stretched out her ghostly hands and tried desperately to scratch Thor's face, while kicking her feet on the ground, trying to throw Thor off her body.
But the evil spirit in her body kept holding her back, preventing her from exerting her full strength.
As time passed, Peggy's struggles became less and less, until there was no movement at all.
Saul didn't let go of Peggy immediately, but continued pressing for about ten minutes.
He felt that Peggy's face was probably flattened by him.
Then Thor chanted a spell and slowly freed one hand to make a gesture.
After he was ready, he suddenly opened the yellowish leather and released a blow to Peggy's face.
Peggy's body shook, but there was no other reaction.
Her face was blue and purple, her mouth was wide open, and there were deep finger marks on her face and neck.
I don’t know if he was killed by an evil spirit or strangled by Thor.
But if it weren't for the internal conflict between Peggy and the Undead, Thor would have no chance of killing her.
Thor didn't dare to relax and continued to release attacks on the undead towards Peggy's face.
Two sorceries were his limit right now.
Thor panted and climbed off Paige's body.
"……Um?"
A light snort sounded behind him, and Thor was startled and turned around suddenly.
Senior Byron, who had not appeared for a long time, stood at the door, looking at everything in the room in a daze.
"Senior?" Thor was completely exhausted and had very little magic power left. He could only stand there, his chest heaving and his hands shaking.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Byron strode in, closed the door behind him, came to Thor, picked up Thor's arm and pulled him behind him.
His mouth moved, making short but inaudible scales, and then pointed at Peggy on the ground.
The latter suddenly jumped up from the ground, opened his mouth wide, and was about to rush towards Byron, but was hit by a black line from his fingertips.
Paige's body and soul howled simultaneously.
Her hideous appearance quickly decayed, and she fell to the ground halfway, turning into a mummy.
But despite this, she, or rather the evil spirit in her, launched an attack at the last moment.
The gust of wind created by his hands was like a knife, cutting Byron's body with deep scars that were visible to the bone.
He was immediately covered in blood.
But that was it. Peggy's decayed body could no longer move, and the black shadow transformed by the evil spirit disappeared and dissipated, leaving only a wisp of black smoke.
With shaking hands, Thor took out the stun mask he had just obtained, suppressed his nausea, and put it on his face to observe.
Just now, he saw Peggy die, and although he added two attacks on the undead, he was still careless. If senior Byron hadn't noticed the evil spirit, he might still not have escaped the disaster.
Now Thor saw no shadow anywhere.
Senior Byron's final blow finally eliminated all the hidden dangers.
Before he could vomit, Thor quickly put away the mask and wrapped it with light yellow leather that could eliminate the smell.
Byron's wounds are gradually healing.
The second-level apprentice is so powerful.
But even someone as capable as Byron could not become a third-level apprentice before the age of thirty.
Thor's heart sank, and he realized clearly how difficult it was to become a wizard.
But he didn't stay depressed for too long. He walked over and asked as if he realized it belatedly: "Senior, why are you here?"
Byron turned around and looked at Thor with extremely complicated eyes.
He began to speak.
No, it was the wounds on his body that spoke.
There was a constant buzzing sound, as if many people were talking at the same time.
"I saw your note, but it was a critical period for me to be promoted to level three, so I came to see you today."
"Senior, are you a third-level apprentice?" Thor grinned, revealing a row of small white teeth.
He was genuinely happy for Byron.
"Not yet, but it should be no problem to complete the promotion within this month. Apart from that, why are you here? This is not a battle you should be participating in."
Thor smiled bitterly: "I was also forced to join in this fun."
He briefly described the entire process of the plan and counterattack.
"You... really exceeded my expectations. Maybe even if I didn't take action just now, you could have dealt with the seriously injured evil spirit."
Byron's voice began to fade away as the wounds on his body began to heal.
He looked at Peggy, who was no longer in human form on the ground, and shook his head, saying, "I was the one who asked Peggy to take over my job. I didn't expect that she would die after only working for a dozen days."
Thor's heart tightened, "Senior, are you on good terms with her?"
Byron shook his head. "There is only an exchange of interests between apprentices. I have nothing to do with her, but Thor... I owe you."
