Chapter 491 Whose conspiracy?
In order to track down the source of the black charred evil spirit, Char and Julie went deep underground.
At the same time, they also left secret marks agreed upon in advance on the surface so that Thor, who arrived later, could catch up.
But they didn't expect that this time, Thor wouldn't be able to make it in time.
As the building is used as a residence, there are almost no people in it during the day.
Those who work go to work, those who go to school go to school, and young children are sent to the place where the adults work to be taken care of.
Thor wanted to see what the girl who turned into a ghost would do next, so he did not subdue her immediately, but followed behind and observed.
Morton went to another room to investigate the reason why the first evil spirit appeared.
Thor crossed his arms and watched the girl tilt her head back and drink the entire pot of water on the table.
When the girl drank the water, there was no swallowing movement in her throat. It was as if the water went directly from her mouth into her stomach without any obstruction in between.
After the water entered the girl's mouth, the skin on her body began to stretch.
The originally shriveled body began to swell again and returned to its normal form.
But her skin did not recover.
The girl's left hand was still charred and a little shorter.
The skin cracks on her face and body simply shrank and became less obvious, but did not heal.
"So drinking water can temporarily delay the cracking of the epidermis." Thor followed Izzy's evil spirit and came to the corridor.
It seemed that Izzy knew where to find water, so he walked out of the rental house and headed towards the water room at the end of the corridor.
However, before the two entered the bathroom, they saw Morton walking out with a serious face.
"Master, something is wrong here. My earth exploration magic is blocked within the wall."
"What kind of force is blocking it?" Thor asked immediately, "Is it contaminating?"
Morton shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like pollution, but more like a sealing effect caused by witchcraft."
Upon hearing this, Thor ignored Izzy who was still walking slowly and went straight to the place near the outer wall.
He pressed his hand against the wall, and the translucent tentacles of Soul Fishing immediately drilled into the wall from his palm.
After a moment, Thor stopped.
"Someone has sealed the entire building."
Thor immediately said to Morton: "Let's go back to the top floor."
However, just as the two of them reached the stairwell, they saw a branch thicker than an average person's waist extending from behind the door.
"Be careful!" Morton immediately stepped forward and raised his hand to cast a spell.
The floor tiles in front of the two men were lifted up by the rising earth spikes.
The oncoming thick branches hit the earth spikes, and both broke at the same time.
"Is this a branch?" Morton felt the powerful magic power spreading on the broken branch.
He glanced at Thor nervously.
Saul shook his head.
The diary did not mention the branch in front of him, and there were tender green buds on this branch, which was unlike the strange plant he saw in the sewer.
"The fluctuation of magic power is very stable. This is not a monster, but a wizard's sorcery."
Flame arrows immediately began to gather in Thor's palm.
Such a large branch is at least a level 3 spell. Morton's magic power is not enough, and the earth attribute spells he is good at are not good at dealing with plant spells.
But level 3 witchcraft requires time to prepare, so Morton naturally stood in front of Thor.
At the same time, Xiao Zao also came out to buy time for Thor.
The branch that had been broken off by the Morton Spike was raised again, ready to attack again.
However, at this moment someone suddenly spoke up and interrupted the two parties who were ready to fight.
"Wizard Thor!" The door of the elevator suddenly opened, and the first-level wizard Kent walked out, "Everyone, don't attack your own people."
When he saw Kent, Thor immediately remembered Char's suspicion of Kent.
Although the flaming arrow in his hand became smaller, it did not dissipate.
However, the thick branches that Thor and others were facing immediately crawled on the ground like puppies after Kent appeared.
Kent was followed by four wizards.
As soon as they came in, they scattered. One of them went straight to the bathroom and directly put Izz's spirit, which had just moved to the door of the bathroom, into the soul bottle.
Morton was about to say something, but when he saw Thor shaking his head imperceptibly, he shut his mouth.
In addition to these wizards, Thor also heard the sound of orderly footsteps in the stairwell.
It seems that many wizards and wizard apprentices have entered this tall building.
"Wizard Kent, can you tell me what happened?"
Kent walked in front of Thor, his face very serious, "Wizard Thor, I wonder if you have noticed that we have captured a lot of evil spirits that look like charred corpses recently?"
"That's right, and the evil spirit just now was also in this form. I was just trying to track down what caused her change."
When Kent heard Thor's words, his expression did not change. He nodded in agreement, and then he sighed softly.
"In fact, we have discovered the source of this charred evil spirit."
Thor's eyes slowly narrowed.
Kent continued, "It's the Shaya wizard."
The air stagnated for a moment.
"Why do you say that?"
"It took us a long time to confirm this. Wizard Char is actually a man who will do anything to achieve his goal." Kent took out some information from his pocket and handed it to Thor. "In fact, I should have kept the case confidential before arresting Wizard Char. But Thor, you are the apprentice of Wizard Gorza, and I think your position is beyond doubt."
Thor took the document and saw the names and information of several people clearly written on it.
"These people...are all wizards?"
"Yes, Char specifically targets solitary wizards who don't like to interact with others. He usually pretends to be nervous and doesn't let anyone get close to him, in order to cover up the abnormal fluctuations in his magic and mental power."
"But Shaar is only a first-level wizard after all." Thor said puzzledly, showing some confusion. "Although he is good at running away, he is not good at direct combat..."
Saul didn't finish his words, but his meaning was clear.
"Yes, but he also uses his own incompetence in combat to confuse other wizards. We have compiled a list of wizards who have disappeared recently and found that many of them had secret contact with the wizard Char before they disappeared. He would take advantage of other people's sense of crisis, exaggerate certain crises, trick others into falling into the traps he set in advance, and then... seize the inheritance of these wizards."
Thor raised his head and pinched his chin. "Wizard Xia just invited me out, but I happened to meet this evil spirit and was delayed."
Kent immediately frowned and said through gritted teeth, "He really did attack you. I thought he would be more considerate of your mentor... But that's right, since you have such a great mentor, you must have a lot of good things. Since Char has killed so many wizards, his standards have become higher, and he will definitely covet the materials you brought."
Thor had previously taken out some rare witchcraft materials in exchange for evil spirits and magic crystals.
But he was also careful not to bring out any precious materials, for fear of being targeted during the archaeological excavation.
"Then why did you surround this building?" Thor asked suddenly.
"We have been tracking the source of the pollution that gave birth to the charred corpses, and then we found a similar smell in this building." Kent said seriously, "Thor, you said that Char just invited you out, right?"
"right."
"I think the reason why the pollution source appeared here is because Char invited you."
Kent looked into the eyes of the Saul man, "He is certain that you will not come back."
