Chapter 477: The Dean Summons
Thor stroked his chin, "Are you sure the evil spirit has disappeared? I was dealing with it and you suddenly woke up."
"Ugh!" Xia paused, his face wrinkled immediately, "You didn't mean to hold back..."
Char was on guard out of habit, but he suddenly thought of something in the middle of his speech and shut his mouth again, then obediently took out the meditation method of drawing pictures from his bag.
Thor took the evolution diagram and put it into the storage device.
In fact, if he wanted to get the evolution diagram from Xia, there were many other ways. When he left the wizard tower, he deliberately brought some thunder-attributed witchcraft materials.
The materials in the wizard tower are all very valuable and are more than enough to exchange for a meditation method that Char doesn't need.
But Thor still wanted to see what the evil spirit in Char was.
"Okay, I've given you the things, now you can leave." Xia started to chase people away.
Thor didn't mind throwing this guy away after use.
Even though Sol cured his nightmares, he couldn't cure his paranoia.
Thor also wanted to go back quickly, but when he was about to turn around and leave, Char in his peripheral vision suddenly turned black.
But when Thor turned around suddenly with full vigilance and looked again, Char behind him had returned to his original appearance.
And judging from his expression, he seemed unaware of what had just happened to him.
"What's wrong? You're not going to raise the price, are you?" Seeing Thor's serious face, Xia immediately took a half step back.
Thor squinted his eyes and saw a thin line bending upward above Char's head.
The end of the thin line disappeared into thin air.
Thor walked out with a heavy heart.
Char was already the third person he had seen who looked different in his eyes.
There is a wizard apprentice whose head will turn into a surveillance bird, an ordinary shopping guide who will turn into a charred corpse, and Char who will turn into a black shadow.
What happened to these people? Or what happened to his eyes? Walking on the road, Thor pressed his eyelids.
Just then, he saw two third-level apprentices walking towards him.
"Master Wizard Thor, Dean Pound asks you to go to the clock tower."
The bell tower of Baidong College is a slender tall tower located in the center of the college.
Unlike the hourglass lamps that are everywhere in the wizard tower, the academy relies on more mechanical clocks to tell time. Even the archaeological city outside is the same.
Thor followed the two apprentices into the bell tower, only to discover that there was something else going on here.
There is actually a huge space hidden on the top floor of the clock tower.
He remembered that Baidong College sold a kind of mobile house, which looked small on the outside but actually had a large space inside.
It seems that this kind of witchcraft is also applied here.
The top floor of the clock tower, which looks only a few square meters from the outside, actually has a space of hundreds of square meters.
There was no wall decoration blocking the space here, and as soon as Sol entered, he saw Dean Pound sitting behind a long table. Opposite him, on the sofa, sat a woman.
The woman had shoulder-length black hair and was thin. She wasn't very pretty, but her eyes were extremely bright.
When Thor approached, the woman suddenly looked up at him with a scorching gaze that was even more oppressive than Dean Pound's.
But judging from the mental fluctuations emanating from the other party, he should only be a first-level wizard.
Dean Pound greeted Sol with a smile, and seeing that he was staring at the woman, he introduced the two of them first.
"This is Beth. She is a first-level wizard like you, but she is about to be promoted, so she doesn't stay in the academy very often." Pound looked at Beth with a look of relief. "Once she is successfully promoted, she will succeed me as the next dean."
Beth stood up and nodded slightly to Saul, looking like a taciturn person.
The most common and ordinary black wizard robe among wizards looked empty on her.
Even though it was summer, Beth had her collar buttoned up to the top button.
The man only showed his face and a pair of white but equally thin hands.
Thor also noticed that when Dean Pound introduced Beth, he did not mention what type of witchcraft she majored in.
After introducing each other, the three of them sat down, and Dean Pound mentioned the real purpose of inviting Saul here.
"The root monster that you and Julie encountered before has appeared again recently. This time, the third-level wizard apprentice who encountered it did not come back alive." Dean Pound put away the smile on his face.
"When Julie reported this to me, I had already sent people into the underground waterway to investigate. But apart from discovering that the soil there had become soft, there were no other abnormalities, and the root monsters were gone too."
"This time, after the root monster reappeared, another official wizard present brought back a piece of rhizome."
Dean Pound raised his hand, and a transparent sealed test tube appeared above his palm.
There is a white rhizome about one finger long in the test tube.
The white rhizome floated up and down quietly in the test tube, looking like an ordinary white radish root, without showing any strange characteristics.
Those were indeed the roots that Thor had encountered before, but in order to avoid having part of his body taken away, he dodged very carefully and did not bring back any samples of the roots.
"After Beth's research, she discovered that this root will chase creatures with magical radiation. But at the same time, it also shows a certain reaction to spirits."
"But after a few experiments, the activity of this root has been rapidly declining. Now it is basically indistinguishable from a dead object. Thor, the last time you encountered this root monster, did you bring back some of its tissue?"
Thor shook his head. "Once there are too many roots like this, it will be very difficult to deal with them. It was the first time that Wizard Julie and I encountered this kind of monster. For safety reasons, our first reaction was to leave the scene."
"Okay." Dean Pound's expression was unclear. "Well, if you encounter this kind of root monster again in the future and are able to bring back its tissue samples, the academy is willing to use magic crystals or witchcraft materials to recycle it."
Thor's heart moved.
It seems that Baidong Academy really cares about this root. The other party may have discovered something on it, but just didn't tell Thor.
If this is the case, Thor plans to keep some for himself for research next time he encounters it, and then hand in the rest to the academy.
But on the surface, he just nodded happily, "Okay."
Next, Dean Pound asked Thor about the battle with the root monster, then thanked Thor for his cooperation and let him go back.
During this conversation, the witch named Beth didn't say a word.
He just sat there with his head down and eyes cast down, seemingly having no interest in any monsters or battles.
Before leaving, Thor looked at the woman again, always feeling that she was not that simple.
After Thor left, Bond stood by the window and made sure that Thor was far away before coming to Beth.
"How do you feel?"
Beth looked up slowly, as if in slow motion.
Her voice was also slow, with a lazy feeling of someone who was still in deep sleep.
"He was alert and didn't notice."
"If I want to keep him in Baidong..."
"No way."
