Chapter 482 Pollution Source
Thor stood in the stairwell, watching the girl with her hands, feet and mouth tied struggling convulsively.
As the girl struggled, her skin cracked little by little, revealing the black stains inside.
Some tiny black particles fell from the cracks in the skin and quickly formed a small pool of pointed dust when they landed on the ground.
Thor saw through the crack in the stairwell door that the man inside had returned to the room, so he let Xiaozao continue to help the girl go upstairs.
Occasionally, someone would pass by Thor and the girl on the road, but neither of them noticed that there was someone walking next to them.
Thor walked up the stairs to the top floor, his temporary residence.
By the time they got here, the girl's skin had been severely cracked and deformed due to her struggle, and her entire body had almost turned into a ball of charcoal.
Like a burnt corpse.
"Master?" Agu and Morton came forward.
They took the girl from Xiaozao, easily subdued her, and trapped her in a witchcraft circle.
There are five more magic circles next to this one, trapping the evil spirits that Thor brought back when he was on his previous sweeper mission.
The charcoal girl is the sixth one.
"I didn't expect that Penny went out every day and didn't find any evil spirits, but one was just born downstairs from us."
Xiaozao shook off the dust on his body, then approached Thor with his mouth breathing out.
Thor stretched out his hand and scratched Xiaozao's chin. "Well, this time it's your credit."
Xiaozao twisted its body happily, like a dancing snake.
Thor looked at the motionless black charred corpse in the magic circle. He had encountered this kind of charred corpse once some time ago, but the evil spirit was finally taken away by Kent, who was in charge of dispatching the mission at that time.
Thor did not stand out when others were present, so he did not gain anything at that time and only got some magic crystals.
But Thor also pays attention to the characteristics of evil spirits. If he finds a suitable one, he will exchange it for magic crystals or other witchcraft materials.
Therefore, he has accumulated a lot of evil spirits these days.
This time he discovered that the evil spirit he had just obtained was the same as the one Kent had taken away last time.
Thor put away the evil spirit - which was of little use - and went to Baidong College.
These were things he discovered openly, and other people might have noticed them as well, so it wasn't surprising that Thor told the dean.
As a result, when he was heading to the college, he met Julie on the way. Julie looked serious and was also walking towards the college.
"Wizard Thor." Julie smiled a little more when she saw Thor. "What a coincidence, I met you today too. Do you still need to exchange evil spirits?"
It is no secret that Thor goes out on missions to collect new evil spirits and exchange them with others. Some wizards know that Thor has rare witchcraft materials and even want to take the initiative to exchange with Thor.
Saul looked at Julie and told her directly the purpose of his trip.
"I recently discovered a new type of evil spirit. They have the same characteristics, but they appear far away from each other. So I guess there might be a new source of pollution."
The evil spirits of Archaoster often appear alone. They are usually some ordinary people or spirits who are subjected to magical or mental radiation that exceeds their tolerance limit, thus becoming alienated.
But in rare cases, several similar evil spirits may appear together.
This situation usually occurs when there is a pollution source that is very dangerous to ordinary people. If this pollution source cannot be eliminated, similar evil spirits will continue to appear.
Although these evil spirits are not powerful, they are deadly enough to ordinary people. Many manufacturing industries in Archaeoster City require ordinary people to complete basic work, which requires a lot of manpower. Therefore, every time they encounter a pollution source that will cause a large number of casualties, they will be cleared as soon as possible.
More rewards will be given to those who report pollution source information.
Unexpectedly, after hearing what Thor said, Julie's face also showed solemnity, "You also encountered a similar evil spirit?"
The two compared their situations and found that the new evil spirits they encountered were actually the same.
They were all charred black, shriveled and skinny, like the charred corpses who had died in a flame.
But they look like ordinary people. When attacked, their skin cracks, revealing the black powder inside.
However, what worries Saul even more is that Julie and the evil spirits he discovered all appeared in different corners of the city.
This means that the source of pollution will not be fixed in one place, making it more difficult to clean up.
The two men had always believed that a dangerous source of pollution had appeared, but when they went to find Dean Pound, the latter was busy with something and just asked them to inform Kent and let him handle it.
Julie agreed with a smile on her face, but after leaving the academy, she warned Saul in a low voice, "If we leave this to Kent, it will probably be a dead end."
Thor's eyes flickered, and he pretended not to understand, "Do you think there's something wrong with Kent?"
Julie twisted her long white hair with her fingers and said casually, "Who knows? Anyway, he has been collecting evil spirits recently. If we go on a mission together, he will take all the evil spirits away in the end. I haven't seen him go to the academy to exchange them."
What the Kent wizard did was somewhat similar to what Thor did.
What Julie meant was probably that the Kent wizard wanted to collect evil spirits, so he would not deal with the pollution source that could mass-produce evil spirits.
If Kent were informed of this matter, he would probably find a way to take advantage of the pollution source.
After Thor reported the matter to the academy, he asked Xiaozao and Penny to explore the surroundings of the temporary residence to see if there were any other new evil spirits.
Xiaozao didn't find any other evil spirits, but Penny did notice a girl.
"…Her name is Izzy. She is the roommate of the evil spirit that Brother Sol caught last time. I found that something is wrong with her."
Penny danced around the room, describing what she had discovered.
"I noticed that she always smelled like she was burning, and her shadow had problems from time to time."
Thor, who was helping An adapt to the new soul weapon, stopped what he was doing.
"What's wrong?"
Penny flew over, looked at Ann who had four more spider legs behind her, and flew higher again.
"Her shadow doesn't match her body. Hehe, there must be pollution hidden in her body, but it hasn't erupted yet."
Thor thought for a moment and said to An, "You and Agu continue to adapt to the new soul weapons. I will take Morton out to take a look."
Originally, after the scorpion tail needle was absorbed by the diary, Thor wanted to let her undergo a new transformation, but for some reason, Ann strongly requested to continue using her for experiments. And Ann also adapted well to the new soul weapon made by Thor - the poisonous spider.
Thor didn't know the reason, he could only think that An was originally a mixture of multiple souls, which is why he could adapt well to other spirits.
So now, only Hermann was left lying alone in the diary.
Thor arranged the tasks for the others and prepared to take Morton, the most powerful one, out to see the girl named Izzy.
But just as he reached the door, the communicator in the room suddenly rang.
Thor picked up the communicator, but he didn't expect that the person on the other end was the wizard Char who had never taken the initiative to look for him.
"Wizard Thor, I have discovered a new evil spirit, but it is very dangerous and I cannot deal with it alone."
Thor: "Wouldn't you have given up the mission immediately in this situation before?"
Life safety is above all else; this is the belief of Wizard Xia.
Shaya was silent for a few seconds after being told by Thor. Finally, he whispered, "I only called you and Wizard Julie. If you want to participate, come to my residence within an hour."
After saying that, he turned off the communicator.
Morton said, "I'm afraid this person is hiding something and didn't say it on the communicator."
Thor nodded. "If this is not a trap, then people who value their lives will naturally not take risks... they are more likely to die."
