Chapter 735 Dean Pound
"Meow! We're back!"
Kate felt Thor release the scruff of his neck and immediately jumped to the ground.
After Thor let go of the orange cat, he immediately looked around, "Has the Whitebeard Wizard not come out yet?"
However, he wandered around the city at night for a long time and did not see Whitebeard, and thought that the other party had found the exit.
In fact, if Thor had not been looking for an opportunity to steal tree seeds, he would not have had to stay in there for so long.
"Oh, don't worry about Wilde. He's a very cunning man. He won't die in there."
After being brought out by Thor, Kate became obviously more flattering.
The black liquid just now left him with lingering fears.
He was afraid that Thor would get unhappy and give him a bad look.
"Wilde?" Thor suddenly realized when he heard the name. "It's unlikely that we have the same name. I didn't expect the captain of the land boat to hide here. Does he already know who I am?"
While Thor was thinking, Kate was still sighing.
"Baidong College has become like this. I guess their dean has also turned into a flower bud. The one we are looking for... eh?"
Kate stopped talking midway because he noticed that a person suddenly appeared on the large tree stump which was originally empty and deserted.
An old man with disheveled hair, wrinkled face and confused eyes.
"Dean Pound."
Even though they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and even though the other person's appearance and demeanor had changed greatly, Thor still recognized the other person's identity at the first sight.
Baidong College, Dean Pound.
"Is he Dean Pound?" Kate was delighted and was about to go over, but she stopped when she saw what was behind Pound. "Those are the roots we encountered!"
Behind Dean Pang De, there were densely packed long and thin roots.
These roots are connected to the center of the stump.
The long and thin root canals looked like human blood vessels, and one could vaguely see something inside being transported to the elderly Dean Pound.
"How did these roots appear here?"
Thor walked forward slowly. "This is the root of the Inverted Tree. It is normal to appear inside or outside. Don't get close yet."
After that, Thor walked up to Pound and said, "Dean, do you still remember me?"
The bewildered dean heard Thor's voice, raised his head a little, and then quickly lowered it again.
"Is he like those shadows inside, having lost his self-awareness?" Kate was obviously concerned about the dean.
He was also expecting to get the method of opening the door from the dean.
Saul also wanted to have a good exchange with Dean Pound.
Although the other party is not the actual controller of Baidong College, he has led the college for so many years and must know more about Beth and the Inverted Tree.
Although Char has been sent to steal the tree seeds, it does not prevent Thor from making further efforts through Dean Baidong.
To ensure success, he didn't mind making a deal with the dean as well.
"Can you hear me?" Thor released a mental force that scanned Dean Pound's entire body.
Unexpectedly, the opponent's physical condition was very good, so good that it was almost comparable to that of a peak second-level wizard.
But there is definitely something wrong with Dean Pound's mental state.
When Thor scanned him with his mental power, his spirit body did not even have the most basic stress response.
"Maybe the soul is inside the Inverted Tree, and only the body remains outside?"
Thor raised his hand, and his index finger turned into a tentacle and touched Pound's forehead.
After a moment, Thor let go of his hand. "Strange, the spirit is still there, and there is no excessive pollution."
Thor took two steps back, observed for a moment, and suddenly laughed, "I've been exposed to a lot of pollution recently, and my brain has become rigid. This is not the effect of pollution, it's witchcraft."
He used a level 0 "Clear Mind" on Dean Pound.
Although it was only a 0th-level spell, when performed by a 3rd-level wizard like him, the effect was almost comparable to that of 3rd or 4th-level spells.
After a moment, Dean Pang De, who had a numb face, suddenly trembled all over and almost fell down, but was pulled back by the roots that pierced into his body from behind.
Beads of sweat immediately appeared on his face. It was obvious that although Thor had woken him up, he also regained consciousness and was tortured by the roots behind him.
But the dean was also a ruthless man. Although he was almost knocked down by the sudden pain, he quickly adapted, endured the pain in his back, and looked up to face Thor.
"It's you?" Pang De smiled. "I heard that you went to the Borderlands. I didn't expect to see you again. You have been promoted to the second-level wizard. You are worthy of being Gorza's student."
Thor turned his head and looked behind Dean Pound, "Don't you need to worry about your own condition?"
Bond turned his head slightly to check his back, but when his neck was half twisted, he immediately felt severe pain.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Even though he was an experienced old wizard, he still couldn't bear it.
He smiled miserably and said, "It's better not to care. This will alleviate some of the pain."
Since the other party is not worried about his own body, Thor will not waste any more words, "Beth turned the bodies of everyone in the inner city into ashes to cover up the fact that she absorbed the spirits of these people?"
Pound immediately showed a painful expression.
Even Thor couldn't tell whether this emotion was real or not.
"I wanted to save her...but she lied to me. She is no longer the original Bestana. In order to be resurrected, she even ignored the inheritance of the academy."
"Inheritance? You mean the Upside-Down Tree? Beth's resurrection also harmed the Upside-Down Tree, right?"
Pound smiled bitterly, "Although I don't know where you learned about the Inverted Tree, you are right. Forcibly resurrecting Beth will consume a large amount of the Inverted Tree's essence, which will cause irreversible damage to the Inverted Tree and even cause the tree to wither. In the past, we have always deliberately slowed down the resurrection process to ensure that the Inverted Tree will not be damaged too much.
But when that madman Char stole the tree seeds, Beth and the Upside-Down Tree were both severely damaged. At this time, according to our original plan, we had to protect the Upside-Down Tree first, but Beth chose to protect herself first, almost overdrawing the essence of the Upside-Down Tree! "
At this point, Dean Pang De's face showed pain again, "She was obviously not that kind of person. She sacrificed herself to protect the inheritance of the academy."
Time can change a person, and so can experience.
Thor also died once, but he forgot the process of death.
Thinking about it now, this might be his luck.
However, Thor had no time to lament Pound's experience. He frowned and said, "Xia Ya stole the seeds of the Inverted Tree?"
Kate behind him had his beard trembling at the corners of his mouth and was trying hard to hold back his laughter.
Kate was very happy to see the person who suppressed her suffer. "I made a deal with him and treated him first, but he didn't give me the thing he wanted right there! I lost money, right?"
Pound nodded to confirm Thor's guess.
Thor touched his chin, "It shouldn't be like this."
He narrowed his eyes and confirmed that the theory of cause and effect had been achieved. The other party was only at the first level of strength. Even if he had become the second level in the inverted tree, he could not resist the guidance of the theory of cause and effect of the fate line.
"Since the theory of causality has been reached, either Char didn't know that he stole the tree seeds. But this is unlikely. Or, in his state at the time, he was unable to give the tree seeds to me."
Thor was not angry. He thought to himself, "It's not bad. I'm used to holding back."
Then, he smiled at Pound again, "Dean Pound, shall we make a deal?"
