Chapter 888 Signs of Recovery
After An was mentioned collecting white monsters, Noah realized belatedly that he had delayed Thor's work because of his own little matter.
He quickly said, "Teacher, do you have any new instructions?"
Thor then said slowly, "How many bone monsters have you collected now?"
"At present, the only complete fish bone is the one that I have given you. The others are incomplete limbs, and most of them are broken bones. It is even hard to tell what kind of creature they belong to." Noah was a little ashamed because the process of finding the bone monster was not smooth. After so many years, there was only one small fish, which was nothing compared to Thor's current mount.
But Thor was not disappointed.
The white-bone flying lizard he found was actually because he turned into black bones and exposed the anchor point in his palm, which attracted the monitor lizard sleeping underground.
No one knew how deep the giant lizard was underground, and Thor was completely unaware of it until it came out.
When these white bone monsters are sleeping, they are as silent as real corpses. If it weren't for some rumors and legends accumulated by the locals, it would be very difficult for Noah to find that white bone monster fish.
However, Thor did not express his true thoughts. He still hoped that Noah could work harder to find the Borgia monster and its remains.
"We should try to collect more bones. Complete monsters are best, but if there are no complete ones, incomplete skeletons are also acceptable." He told Noah, "We can send more people out to search at ordinary times, and send people with stronger combat power if there are any clues."
Noah nodded repeatedly.
"Now, give me all the bone monsters you collected."
This was why Thor came here in a hurry.
"Ah, because bones are not easy to be guarded closely, I buried all the bone fragments in the Blackwater City Cemetery."
Burying bones among a pile of corpses makes it difficult for them to be discovered.
Thor asked for the location, and the man disappeared directly from Noah's room.
Noah actually had something else he wanted to say to Thor.
Although he is now focused on developing the Cult of Death with Thor as its core, he also has some questions about witchcraft that he wants to ask.
However, seeing that Thor had left, Noah had to suppress his desire for knowledge.
He glanced at the already dusty witchcraft notes in his room and sighed, "It seems like it's time for me to find a successor."
Noah, who was not even fifteen years old, sighed as if he were fifty years old.
Thor came to the cemetery and found that it was far away from Blackwater City. Except for a few guards, there was basically no one living nearby.
It's a compliment to call this place a cemetery; it can also be called a mass grave.
Apparently, due to the rapid expansion and the search for the bone monster, the residents and slaves of Blackwater City also lost a lot of lives.
The dead here were buried in a disorderly manner underground. In some places, there were dozens of people buried in a large pit, which was almost like a mass grave.
The remains and fragments of the bone monster that Noah mentioned were buried in the largest corpse pit.
It seems that Noah deliberately concealed the purpose of the bone monster and only exposed the rarity of the complete bone monster. Maybe he was afraid that others would discover the specialness of the bones and compete with him for resources.
Thor casually collected the bones that he had buried after camouflage, and teleported back to the flying skeleton lizard high in the sky.
Then, according to the information given by Noah and his own perception, he determined An's location and set off again.
An's location is some distance away from Blackwater City. If he travels normally, it may take more than ten days or even dozens of days.
Thor had more time this time and was not in a hurry to teleport there. Instead, he observed the terrain of the chaotic area while flying.
In order to complete the tasks assigned by Thor and develop the power of Blackwater City, Noah almost never took the initiative to ask Thor for help during this period.
But just because the apprentice doesn’t say anything doesn’t mean the master won’t help.
While flying, Thor memorized the terrain and tribes in the nearby area, and used his powerful memory to help Noah draw a very accurate map.
With this map, it will be easier for Noah to formulate expansion plans and city construction.
High in the sky, Thor discovered that there were not many tribes near Blackwater City, and it seemed that most of them had been incorporated by Noah.
But after walking a little further, Thor saw a dead land with no grass growing nearby and a strange gas rising faintly.
Thor asked the Bone Lizard to go down and explore, and he found a dark fire vein underground.
Dark Fire is a resource that low-level wizards often use when making witchcraft props. It is not rare in the wizarding world, but it has a wide range of uses. Even in the Chaos Domain, it can also be used in some weapons and energy.
The discovery of the Dark Fire Vein gave Thor a little surprise, but more of it was astonishment.
This is a chaotic zone where magic elemental particles are scarce. It's not a wizarding world. How could there be dark fire veins here?
Is this world reviving? Thinking of the large amount of inert black powder and bone remains in the underground, Thor frowned. If the activity of magic element particles in this chaotic area has been restored, it may not be a good thing.
However, considering the concentration of elements in the world as a whole, even if the Chaos Domain wants to recover, it will take hundreds of years.
Maybe by that time, he had found a way to deal with the black tide.
"After hundreds of years, I have reached at least level 4. If my research in the Fantasy World goes well, I may be able to reach level 5. With the help of the Line of Destiny and the Diary of the Dead Wizard, level 6 is not impossible." Thor thought happily, "But to reach level 6, it seems that I need to kill a world... This rule is a bit cruel! Or will I be indifferent to life and not care about the survival of a world when I reach level 5?"
Some things are terrifying when you think about them carefully.
When you still have humanity, you will find it terrifying to lose it.
If he really lost his entire nature in order to become stronger, did he become stronger, or did he disappear?
Thor also didn't know what choice he would make in the future.
Now he must at least be promoted to the fourth level.
Flim's eyes are already fixed on Thor. It's hard to guarantee whether the other party will discover anything special about Thor?
After all, the ability to absorb black tide pollution is a very insignificant one among Thor's many talents.
Thor asked the Bone Flying Lizard to regain its altitude, but before leaving, he used the Soul Blade to directly open a hole in the Dark Fire Vein below.
A large amount of steam carrying poisonous smoke suddenly erupted from the ground.
Thick gray smoke rose into the sky.
"This way, Noah's men will definitely discover the abnormality here." Thor cast a purification spell so that when Noah sent people to mine, the entire army would not be wiped out.
Of course, we can’t feed it directly into Noah’s mouth. It would be too easy to get benefits, which would not be conducive to Noah’s building of prestige in the hearts of the people.
After doing all this, Thor continued on his way, ready to check on An's progress.
"If I can get a few more complete bone monsters, I might be able to reassemble them into a more powerful entity. This way, when I release them against Flim, they will be more threatening!"
