Chapter 736 Sacrifice
When Pound heard that Thor wanted to make a deal with him, a look of confusion flashed across his face.
"I am in this state now, what can I trade with you?"
"I'll help you find Xia, and you'll arrange a meeting between me and Beth?"
Pound was stunned.
Kate behind was also stunned.
Dean Pound, who didn't know about Sol's operation of selling out his teammates, could only reply: "You want me to help you contact Beth?"
Thor shrugged his shoulders. "Although you act very painful, Beth is the one who controlled you to be here, right? I think you should be able to contact her."
Pound gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know why she only left me behind, but I can't take the initiative to contact her. If you really want to find her, you can directly leave your body and go to the heart of the Inverted Tree. She must be there. You are a wizard who specializes in dark attributes, so this should not be difficult for you."
"It's not difficult, but giving up the home advantage and going to the tree core space completely controlled by Beth, and then facing the former third-level wizard and the current third-level demonic creature at the same time? Betting that they still have enough rationality and will not kill me right away?"
Saul raised his hands and pressed Dean Pound's shoulders, ignoring the pain on his face. "Or you can pass a message to Beth. I want to make a deal with her. If she is willing, I can help her overcome the difficulties of resurrection."
Kate at the back couldn't listen any more.
He thought that this Black Blade Wizard was simply weird.
Kate admitted that the other party was very powerful, but he was a third-level wizard! He even boasted that he would help Beth revive.
"Wait, the dean of Baidong just said that he is Golsa's student? Could he invite Golsa?"
Kate didn't know Thor's identity, but Gorsa's name had been heard throughout the entire western continent in the past hundred years.
There is no wizard who has lived here who does not know how powerful and domineering he is.
But this person is also famous for not caring about anything.
Even if the wizards in the Gorsa Wizard Tower were in danger or were being plotted against, he would never stand up for his subordinates.
Can such a person really be invited by the Black Blade Wizard?
But this Black Blade Wizard is not simple, he is simply a profiteer! In just less than half a day, he has made deals with several people? And he turned around and sold out his former partner Char, without any hesitation.
Kate originally wanted to follow Thor to find an opportunity to get some benefits, but now she thinks she doesn't want to do that.
He might not be able to defeat Thor.
Thinking of this, the orange cat began to slowly back away.
Now the enemies of Baidong College have become two third-level ones. This is not a fight he should participate in. The best strategy is to slip away.
Kate's decision was a wise one.
Just as he quietly retreated more than ten meters, Sol and Dean Pound suddenly broke down in their talks! Dean Pound, who had just looked very painful, suddenly looked up with a hideous smile on his face.
Two long and thin roots suddenly stretched out from his shoulders and quickly locked Thor's arms.
At the same time, branches as thick as pythons grew in front, behind, left and right of Thor in the blink of an eye.
They were like prison bars, trapping Sol and Dean Pound inside.
Bond stared at Thor's face, and for the first time greed appeared in his eyes.
"Don't worry about it. Lady Beth already has a way to revive her."
As he spoke, more branches and roots wrapped around Thor's body.
Thor tried to struggle, but found that these roots were extremely tough, even stronger than those in the inverted tree.
Not only that, the moment these branches and roots wrapped around Thor's body, they began to emit a natural fragrance of grass and trees after the rain.
Even with Thor's sense of smell, he almost failed to detect the smell.
"poison gas?"
Thor discovered that the gas would penetrate into his body if it touched it. Apparently, holding his breath could not prevent the poisonous gas from entering his body.
Seeing that Thor failed to break free several times, the "prison" around him was completely closed, and the "germ" had begun to take effect. Bond finally didn't have to disguise himself anymore.
The wrinkles on his face turned into deeper textures, and his graying hair and beard grew thicker and longer, exactly like the roots behind him.
His skin turned into brown bark, and his eyes, mouth, nose and other facial features turned into several holes in the tree.
Dean Pound is actually a tree man! Thor sighed, "It turns out that you have already merged with the Upside-Down Tree. No wonder there are so many roots on your body. But why do you want to help Beth? Aren't you afraid that she will really kill the Upside-Down Tree? You won't be able to survive if that happens."
Pound did not explain, he was just extremely excited, "Originally we just wanted to attract some greedy second-level wizards, but we didn't expect to catch a proud new third-level wizard like you. It's really a pleasant surprise. With you as nourishment, Lady Beth will definitely be able to successfully resurrect!"
Thor was about to say something when a loud explosion caught his attention.
The sound came from outside the closed cage of branches, and it was not just one sound, but more than ten sounds, continuously.
The huge explosion sounded farther and farther away, and from inside to outside, it seemed that a series of explosions occurred with the inverted tree as the center.
The sound did not stop for a long time, and it caused the earth to shake. It became more and more powerful and terrifying.
Thor could already imagine the tragic scene outside the city of Koster.
Even though he was trapped in the branches, he could imagine what kind of horrible disaster was happening outside! He turned around and said in surprise: "You want to sacrifice the outer city? Sacrifice the entire Archaeological City?"
Bond just laughed wildly, happy that his plan went smoothly, and didn't answer Thor's questions at all.
Thor sighed, "Ah...it looks like you guys are not going to make this deal with me."
Suddenly, his expression changed and his eyes became fierce.
"First courtesy, then force. Since the talks have failed, let's fight."
His arms shook, and the branches that had just been tightly wrapped around him began to hang down loosely as if they had suddenly lost their force bearer.
The roots that pierced Thor's palms were broken into pieces, and the residue that fell to the ground looked like it had been highly corroded.
Bond's laughter caught in his throat and his wooden eyes almost cracked.
Thor looked up again, and his face was no longer covered with flesh, but had turned into a black skeleton.
"Isn't it just mental manipulation and pollution? I'm also good at this."
After he finished speaking, large patches of gray tentacles suddenly emerged from under his wizard robe, like a peacock spreading its tail, and instantly shot towards the branches of the inverted trees around him, immediately piercing holes in the closed "prison".
The sunlight shone in and fell on Thor's face, and wisps of black mist instantly appeared in the beam of light.
It made Thor look like a messenger from the abyss in an instant.
The smile on Bond's face completely disappeared, and large new buds suddenly appeared on his face, which was as rough as tree bark, and the new buds quickly grew brown leaves.
The leaves are arranged in groups of two, and the edges of the leaves are like sharp teeth. When they open and close, the leaves hit each other, making a metallic collision sound.
Then a large number of leaves bit towards Thor and the tentacles around him like mad dogs.
The leaf that bit the tentacle immediately pierced the skin on the surface of the tentacle, but black liquid also flowed out from the bitten place of the tentacle, directly corroding the leaf.
But more leaves then fell on Thor.
The blade biting into Thor's bones didn't leave any mark on them.
Bones that can withstand the corrosion of the black tide will not be harmed by a few magic leaves.
But at the same time, Thor was also imprisoned by the attack of the leaves.
Bond felt a little relieved when he saw that Thor was trapped by him again.
"Although he is trapped, his soul cannot be absorbed. It's a pity that he cannot be used as a sacrifice for Lady Beth for the time being. However, once Lady Beth completely sacrifices the entire city and fuses the Inverted Tree into a new locator, she will be able to truly be resurrected! At that time, this kid will become Lady Beth's first supplement after her resurrection!"
The smile returned to the tree man Pound's face again.
