Chapter 731 Beth's Sacrifice
Although Char stopped struggling, he did not believe Thor.
"You? Treat me? Do you know what happened to me? Do you think you can get me to work for you by temporarily suppressing the pollution under the guise of treatment?"
As if he had stayed there for too long, the street lights in front of and behind Thor dimmed again.
The shadows also obscured Thor's expression.
But his voice was unusually clear.
"You may not know that in the past few years since I left Archosaur, I have been working part-time as a doctor. I am quite good at treating pollution."
Saul's voice is very natural and confident.
"Besides, even if I don't know what happened to you, can't you tell me? No matter how powerful a doctor is, he must learn the cause and symptoms from the patient before treating him. If you want to get out of your current predicament, just cooperate with my treatment!"
The sudden strong tone and the mental pressure made the moon in front of him and the orange cat behind him both appear half a head shorter.
Frightened by Thor's sudden increase in pressure, Char's lips trembled as he spoke, "You really have hidden your strength. What level are you at now? What is your conspiracy?"
Trading with Char is such a hassle!
He always regarded Thor as a profiteer and doubted his intentions.
Although Thor is indeed a profiteer.
Now, the "profiteer" has run out of patience. He pressed the moon to the ground and rubbed it, "Stop talking nonsense. I just want to ask you, do you want to treat it or not?"
"Heal! Heal!" Char's desire to survive finally overcame his paranoia, and he kept saying it.
"Heal! Heal! Meow!" Even Kate behind me repeated it mechanically.
Thor heard the cat's meow and looked back, and Kate was already twenty meters away from him.
“Don’t run around.”
"Yes, yes!" The orange cat quickly stepped on its short legs and ran to Thor's side, behaving very honestly.
Thor looked back at Char, who had also become obedient, took a deep breath, and loosened his hand.
He thought to himself: "Sure enough, is my way of dealing with things still too gentle? It's because I was promoted too quickly and didn't come into contact with other forces, so I haven't been able to change my original mentality."
Seeing Thor finally let go of his hand, Xia quickly took a breath and said, "It's not safe here. Let's start somewhere else."
After saying that, the moon that Char transformed into suddenly lit up, and the white light enveloped the figures of Thor and Kate.
When the white light disappeared, the three of them actually came to a house.
Thor looked around and immediately remembered that this was the villa where Char had lived during his lifetime.
He still remembered that there was a space teleportation array hidden in the basement of the villa.
"Oh my God, how did you do that?" Kate rubbed the ground with her cat paws, and the pads of her paws gave her real tactile feedback.
“If you can live here for more than a year, you can, too.”
Facing the orange cat, Char couldn't help but use a mocking tone.
But when he turned around and saw Thor, his momentum was gone.
The moon-like outer shell slowly cracked open, revealing the wizard inside.
Char transformed back into a human in this villa.
But this appearance is not exactly the same as his original appearance.
The Char in front of him was shirtless, and tender green branches were growing on his forehead, cheeks, neck, and arms.
It was as if a seed had taken root in his body and cruelly broke through his internal organs and skin to sprout.
He looked down at the branches on his body and sighed, "You are right. If no one helps me out of this predicament, I will be assimilated by the environment here and become Beth's puppet completely."
"Beth?" Thor was not surprised to hear the name.
"Yes, Beth. If you want to understand the source of my contamination, you must know Beth and the upside-down tree."
"In fact, the real controller of Baidong College is not the dean, but Beth, who seems to be only a first-level wizard. And she is actually the previous dean of Baidong College, and a third-level wizard of Baidong College!"
"Crack!" The orange cat's jaw was dislocated.
Thor frowned, but did not interrupt Char.
Then, Xia recounted what happened in Baidong Academy from his perspective.
Beth was once a powerful third-level wizard who led the Baidong Academy to defeat the army of the Kema Empire.
But she is actually a loser.
She was forced to take the academy out of No Man's Land because she failed to snatch the territory from Clark and was driven out.
Also, because she was seriously injured in the battle with Clark, Beth barely relied on moving mountains and burying people, and created the Chuishou Valley Massacre to help Baydon College quickly gain a foothold, but she died due to her serious injuries.
But Beth is a third-level wizard after all, and she has already prepared for resurrection.
She used her own corpse to feed the Inverted Tree, and gradually nurtured it into a giant demonic creature large enough to cover an entire city.
Beth used the branches and resin of the Inverted Tree and mixed it with her blood to create a vessel for herself that would allow her to resemble a living person.
And they place their souls in the inverted space of the inverted tree, and use the souls and special energy absorbed by the inverted tree to maintain the daily loss of the soul, and ensure that the soul will not be easily polluted.
In this way, Beth completed the task of resurrection in disguise.
But resurrection is, after all, an beyond-the-scope topic for a third-level wizard.
Beth, who has a new body and is preparing to regain her strength as quickly as possible, soon notices something strange.
The inverted tree, which was gradually becoming stronger, actually began to compete with Beth for "nutrition".
What made Beth most embarrassed was that she couldn't really compete with the inverted tree.
If she lost the fight and lost her supplies, even if she didn't disappear, she would be contaminated due to excessive weakness.
If she won the robbery, the inverted tree would starve to death, and her soul attached to it would naturally have no habitat.
After thinking about it for a day and a night, Beth finally decided: since the nutrition is not enough, she should eat more.
From that day on, Baidong College, which had not yet established itself, began to desperately expand its enrollment.
As long as the students have magical qualifications, they will accept them regardless of their qualifications.
However, the number of wizard apprentices was small after all, so Baidong Academy began to change its strategy and mainly recruited ordinary people to settle in the ancient city of Archaeoster.
Use quantity to ensure quality.
The inverted tree will hide underground, enjoying the soul fragments provided to it by all people on the earth.
Despite so many people sharing the burden, some people still died from the day-to-day exploitation of the inverted tree.
And because most of their souls had been absorbed long ago, they could only turn into ashes after death.
Not even a spirit.
As the city of Archaeoster gets bigger and bigger, and the residential buildings get taller and taller, even if there are dozens or hundreds of casualties here, it is not noticeable.
But things were not resolved perfectly.
As the Inverted Tree grows stronger, its appetite grows.
If Beth wants to maintain the stability of her spirit, she must continue to feed the Inverted Tree and then helplessly watch it continue to grow stronger.
Everything will fall into a vicious cycle.
Before things become unresolvable, Beth makes another decision.
She wanted to abandon her original locator that she had chosen as her main earth attribute, and instead turn the inverted tree into her new locator. From then on, the two would become one, and she would no longer have to worry about competing for nutrients, and she would be able to better control the inverted tree.
For this decision, Beth will sacrifice everyone in the city!
