Chapter 588: New Ideas for Collecting Corpses
After Thor explained his future mission to Noah, he became a hands-off boss.
He handed the little boy over to Agu and other consciousnesses to learn, and left the wizard tower again.
When he left this time, he took with him Herman, who had been armed with soul and whose speed had returned to its peak.
Because this time he had a new idea for picking up corpses.
By using the body torn off Brando, Thor has completed the trial run of the magic reservoir.
The entire magic circle is running smoothly and can already produce pure magic power, but its efficiency is a bit low and the output is a bit low.
If you want to increase the output, you need to put a lot of magic-rich items into the magic pool, such as magic crystals, witchcraft materials, and even some powerful witchcraft props.
Thor had these things, but they were not enough.
In order to increase the conversion rate of magic power, he needs more corpses of first-level wizards or above.
Picking up corpses can solve the above two problems at the same time.
It used to be difficult to pick up corpses in the Borderlands, and recently no one has ventured out.
But Thor discovered that the hunting team that Noah once belonged to was a good target for corpse picking.
First of all, they acted independently, and secondly, they went to quite dangerous areas.
Although the wizards in the team would hide outside and let ordinary people take risks, who could tell what the safe distance was in the dangerous area? What's more, they were the people of the Wind Demon.
The wind demon sent people to try to find Thor several times, and later killed Justin, who had confessed to Thor. This made Thor feel more and more threatened.
Even though the other party has been quiet recently, Thor won't relax.
So, Thor didn't mind picking up the corpses of the wind demon's hunting team.
I don't even mind making some on my own.
Thor chased in the direction that the team of hunters left two days ago, and deliberately avoided some hidden mental marks along the way.
The wind demon's hunting team has a mission to accomplish, and they have to sacrifice ordinary people's lives to conduct investigations, so they cannot move very fast.
After chasing for a day, Thor saw the leading wizard, Brown, outside a rather dangerous abandoned manor not far away.
Sol had also visited this abandoned manor.
It is said that this is the place where an alienated wizard died. Later, someone wanted to occupy the location of this manor and cast a spell to clean up the remaining damaged buildings.
As a result, a few months later, when other people passed by this place and came to check, they found that it had turned back into the abandoned manor.
Even the collapsed wall and the scratches on it were exactly the same.
From then on, the manor had a new name - Old Manor.
Thor did not encounter anything unusual when he entered the manor, but when he tried to destroy the rooms here, he received a death warning from the diary.
So he understood that he couldn't cause any trouble here for the time being.
However, the manor does not seem to object to others visiting.
Thor closed his magic and mental fluctuations, hid behind the messy bushes outside the manor, and watched the group of people inside from afar.
Wizard Brown and the other four apprentices stood outside the manor gate with expressionless faces.
But from the way they looked towards the door from time to time, it could be seen that they had been waiting for some time and were becoming somewhat impatient.
At this time, there were still four ordinary people in this team.
And Noah once told Thor that when they set out, there were as many as twenty-four ordinary people in the team.
So many people died in just one month.
In order to prevent others from noticing his gaze, Thor observed the movements of the wizards through the copper pillars in front of the manor house and the glass windows on the wall.
Just when he turned his gaze to the window again, he found that there was no figure on the glass.
Thor narrowed his eyes and did not act rashly. He just confirmed again that his mental power and magic power were completely blocked, then slowly moved his gaze to the gate.
But the strange thing was that Brown and several other wizards and four ordinary people were still standing at the door, without even changing their movements.
Thor frowned and carefully turned his gaze to the window again.
However, there was still no one in the window.
"What went wrong?"
Did the windows of the abandoned manor suddenly lose their ability to reflect?
Or is that hunting team... not there at all?
Thor hid there for a while.
This time he didn't care about being exposed and directly observed the group of people standing in front of the manor gate.
These people are not static.
They also shift their weight, scratch their hair, and so on.
But as time went on, Thor discovered that although these people were waving, none of them moved their feet.
"It turns out there's something wrong with these people!"
Thor raised his hand and pointed it at Brown.
A silver butterfly the size of a grain of rice suddenly flew out from his fingertips.
The butterfly first stayed on a nearby leaf for a moment, then fluttered towards Brown.
After approaching the group of people, the butterfly did not land on anyone's shoulder, but flew around them and then returned to Thor.
"Brother Thor, you guessed right. Those people, oh, no, they are no longer human. I think something may have gone wrong with your plan to pick up the bodies."
Thor stretched out his index finger and dragged Penny to his feet, standing up from the bushes.
When he showed up and exposed his magical fluctuations, the people standing in front of the abandoned manor did not look back.
Make sure that there is something wrong with the person in front of you.
And the problem is not small.
He even doubted whether these people were all dead.
Thor walked over slowly, keeping an eye on the diary.
When he walked up to Wizard Brown, the diary did not indicate that his life was in danger.
So, Thor finally discovered the abnormality in Brown and others.
When Thor stood at a distance and watched, he didn't notice anything wrong with the man.
But when he got closer, he found that these people looked a little strange.
They have slightly lower resolution and don't look as clear as the real thing.
Thor squinted his eyes and observed carefully, only to find that these people were actually made up of millions of tiny cubes! When they moved, the cubes that made up their bodies became more blurred.
Thor kicked up a small stone.
The stone hit Brown, who immediately shattered to the ground.
"The rules have changed." Thor thought silently.
Not everywhere will the rule changes be as gentle as at the Rhine.
In most cases, it means the need to pile up human lives again to crack new rules.
The Brown wizard in front of them was at least a first-level wizard. Perhaps it was because the test went too smoothly - after all, only ordinary people died - that they let down their guard.
Suddenly, Thor felt a chill in his heart.
He jumped back suddenly and moved ten meters back in an instant.
The next moment! "Bang!"
The gate of the old manor suddenly made a loud noise, as if someone inside was banging on the gate!
The door was knocked outward, but because there were several layers of locks in the middle, it only opened a small gap and then bounced back.
Thor, who had been staring at the door, saw a dark shadow behind the door at that moment.
However, the gap between the door and the ground was too small, and Thor couldn't see clearly what was behind the door.
"Brother Thor, there is a very strong resentment coming from behind the door." Penny's voice also became serious.
Thor nodded, and the moment the door was pushed open, the diary opened in his mind.
[New Moon Calendar Year 319, May 27th, the abandoned manor will regain its glory one day. The terrifying shadow is just an invitation from the owner.
When you get close, they will enthusiastically pull you in.
Remember to bring your gifts.
For example, the life of a first-level wizard? 】
