Chapter 657: True Wizards Compare Brains
The Stargate Council did not play any tricks on the content of the competition.
In other words, such an important selection cannot tolerate any water.
Shortly after the three candidates and Rhine Lake met each other for the first time, Miss Lucy, the representative of the Stargate Council in the Borderlands, brought the decision of the Speaker and the head of the Glowing Family and summoned the three candidates to the old manor near Rhine Lake.
After the last incident, the old manor had been cleaned up many times by Herbert and Pearl.
But they didn't find any clues about Clark's murderer.
Although the murderer's mental characteristics were located through retrospection and mental testing, this kind of mental power is extremely rare.
Based on its mental characteristics alone, it is impossible to match it with any known third-level wizard.
Either he is a reclusive third-level wizard, or he is deliberately concealing his original mental characteristics.
But the second method is very difficult. In Thor's opinion, it is like a complete blood transfusion.
Therefore, he was very sure that his powerful and eccentric mentor was preparing to cause trouble again.
Because of the repeated entry and destruction by the two third-level people, the old manor has lost its original spatial overlapping power.
The inside was badly damaged.
The dilapidated and gorgeous scenes switched in disorder, and in the end it even turned into black and white snow like an old-fashioned TV that Thor had seen.
All in all, it looks more like a haunted house than before.
Standing in front of the gate of the old manor with Byron, Thor waited for Lucy and others to appear.
He saw Byron staring at the old manor in a daze, and asked with concern: "Senior, will the remaining pollution here affect you?"
Byron turned around, his expression calm and clear, "No. These days, there is no sign of recurrence of pollution. I was just thinking about the secret of space. Isn't it said that only fourth-level wizards can control the mysteries of space? Then how did Lord Gorza do all this at the second level?"
Ever since Byron's mental power was accidentally contaminated by an abnormality while doing experiments in the wizard tower two days ago, Thor has been acting with Byron.
Because they did not detect the cause of the pollution of Byron's spirit afterwards, in order to prevent others from being unable to treat the pollution in time, Thor brought Byron to the Old Manor.
"After all, the mentor is a genius in a large family with fourth-level wizards, and he must have had many unusual experiences in his past."
Saul really admires Golsa on this point.
He has now accidentally obtained a method to open the chaotic domain. He has traveled through space several times and has also personally set up a short-distance space teleportation array, but he still doesn't know how to cross the dimension of space as easily as his mentor.
However, although he didn't know how to travel through space, after the last conversation and what Mentor Gorza took from him, Thor vaguely guessed what Gorza wanted to do.
No wonder he looked down on the Arbitration Tribunal and the Stargate Council in his words. It turned out that he wanted to do something so crazy.
I just don't know if he will succeed in the end.
Thor and Byron stood there for a while, and then they saw a pumpkin carriage from a fairy tale gradually emerge from the transparency.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the two of them, the door opened automatically, and the emerald green vines automatically weaved into steps.
The doll-like wizard Corey got off the pumpkin carriage.
He still moves as stiff as wood.
Perhaps this was the official start of the selection, Corey and Saul did not greet each other, but just nodded to each other as a polite greeting.
A few minutes later, the shuttle that Luke was on descended from the sky.
And Luke still jumped directly from mid-air.
There was also a first-level wizard beside him, but when he got closer, Thor and Byron discovered that the first-level wizard was still the dark-skinned wizard. Even the scar on his neck was still there, which was messily sewn up with black fine thread, with the skin and flesh tangled, and some subcutaneous tissue still exposed, but it seemed that it no longer affected the dark-skinned wizard's movements.
The shape of his mouth was also somewhat wrinkled, as if it had been twisted and then forcibly ironed flat.
"Hello again." Luke's face still had only a pair of eyes, but as he approached, he pulled out a bloody mouth from his pocket and placed it where a mouth should be.
It was just pasted so casually that the mouth looked a little crooked.
Seeing Thor notice the first-order wizard behind him, Luke's voice became more proud.
"Kafka was my assistant, very useful, and I was reluctant to let him die. So I had to put in some effort to revive him."
Kafka, who has dark skin, is Luke's subordinate, so it is difficult for Thor to check him directly with his mental power.
But judging from the fearful look in Kafka's eyes when he looked at Byron, he might really be the wizard who was bewitched by Byron and attacked Luke in confusion.
"Resurrection?" Corey walked over with stiff steps and approached Kafka without any courtesy, as if he wanted to test the other party's sincerity with his hand.
"Please feel free to do so." Luke didn't seem to care about Corey's direct test. "It's just a resurrection experiment. It's not that difficult."
"He...is this a reflection of Mentor Gorza?" Thor heard it, but he was not angry.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Gorza's resurrection experiment was no longer a secret when the wizard tower rebelled. It was normal for the core members of these major forces to know about it.
I guess Gorsa wouldn't care about other people's opinions.
However, Corey's temperament suddenly turned cold.
She understood, and seemed to really admire Golsa.
But before the atmosphere could get any worse, Miss Lucy had already walked out of the old manor.
She had a blank expression on her face, and looked much cooler than the last time they separated. She was still wearing a gorgeous androgynous women's dress, and under her long trousers were a pair of silk high heels that could only be seen at court balls.
"I have invited you all here today to announce the contents of your selection as candidates for the third-level wizard."
Lucy didn't waste any time, she didn't even say hello to a few people politely.
"To become a third-level Borderlands warrior, you must be able to adapt to the environment here better than others. Therefore, only those among you who are most capable of survival can get the support of the Stargate Council and the Borderlands to help you completely open the door within your body."
The mouth on Luke's face began to twist and deform again, as if the temporarily installed organ could not adapt to his face and would be scrapped after one use.
"So that's a test of survival ability? How about a direct battle of life and death?" He glanced at Thor and Corey in turn, "Whoever becomes the final winner will naturally become the next third-level wizard."
Thor's eyes suddenly narrowed, hiding the smile inside, "Really?"
A non-threatening mental wave slowly dissipated from Thor's body.
Although there was no offensive intent in it, it made everyone present feel a chill down their spine.
It seems like something scary is staring at me.
The words Luke was about to say were suddenly stuck in his throat. He looked at Thor, who suddenly showed his strength. His face gradually became serious, and the muscles above his eyes wrinkled a little, as if he had met an opponent who needed to be treated with caution.
There was no change in Corey's expression. He just turned his head ninety degrees, one eye fixed on Thor and the other on Luke.
It seemed that as long as Miss Lucy said yes, the three of them would immediately start a life-and-death duel without any scruples until only one of them was still standing.
But Lucy sneered, "Are you a bunch of beasts who only know how to fight? Real wizards compete with each other in brains!"
