Chapter 952 Red Worm
After Thor left the tower where Corey was, he immediately said to Xiao Zao: "Did you find..."
Thor wanted to ask Xiaozao if she had discovered anything, but before he could ask, he saw Wizard Oler walking out of the main building in the middle of the castle.
The other party recognized Thor, but made no attempt to come over to say hello. He turned and walked into the tower on the other side.
Thor stared at Ole's back and said to Xiaozao, "Xiaozao, did you see it?"
Xiao Zao nodded, also with a serious expression.
"I remember that the wizard Oler had no head, and there was a plant on his neck, right?"
Xiaozao continued to nod seriously.
"I remember that he didn't have a red worm head on his head originally, right?"
Xiaozao shook his head seriously.
"Let's go find Corey and talk to him again." Thor turned around and went back to the tower he had just come out of.
The head of the wizard Ole turned into a huge red worm. The diameter of the worm was thicker than his neck. After squeezing out from the end of his neck, it swelled up and looked more like a human head.
Thor quickly climbed up the tower and knocked on Corey's door.
But this time, after a few seconds no one answered, and no one opened the door.
Thor put one hand on the door handle, used magic to roughly open the door, and rushed in.
"Corey, I think we need to have a good talk--"
His voice stopped abruptly because there was no sign of Corey in the room.
Thor's mental power swept through the entire room like a storm, then the entire tower, and finally expanded to the entire castle.
He could even sense other people in the castle, including the wizard Ole with a bug head, but he still couldn't find any trace of Wizard Corey.
Corey is missing.
"We just went downstairs for only a minute. Where could she go in this minute?"
Thor looked around the room. "Now that I think about it, she was acting a little strange before we left. It seemed like she wanted to say something but didn't get around to it."
A silver butterfly flew out from between Thor's eyebrows and quickly circled around the room.
"There is no dream of Corey. She disappeared very cleanly."
"I didn't feel anything unusual. How could a second-level wizard suddenly disappear? Is it because of me?"
Beth: [Thor, there are actually only two possibilities for making Wizard Corey disappear without alerting you. One is that she volunteered. The other is...]
"The other one is the one who made Wizard Corey disappear. His mental power is stronger than mine." Thor already knew what Beth was going to say. "It's not that I'm arrogant. There are only two or three people in the wizarding world who have stronger mental power than me."
【Oh, you are right.】
After returning from the Wall of Sighs, Thor's mental power surged again.
Beth couldn't figure it out. Was Thor's method of advancing to the fourth level too powerful? Every time Thor established a connection with a target, his mental strength would be improved. After completing four targets, the improvement was simply exaggerated.
Beth even wondered if Thor had any other means of enhancing his mental power.
Since Corey couldn't be found for the time being, Saul began to check the entire room to see if he could find any clues left by Corey.
After a round, Thor found nothing except the usual supplies and some documents about the city and border defense. Then he began to look for mechanisms in the house.
Sometimes, purely physical mechanisms that do not involve magic may have blind spots and hide from the wizard's eyes.
And this time, Thor finally made other discoveries.
Instead of discovering a secret passage, they found some ashes in the fireplace. These ashes all had white edges. Thor picked them up with his hands and confirmed that they were the same kind of paper as the one on Corey's desk.
The tower's fireplace had a large volume, but as a tool used by wizards, it did not burn wood or coal for heating. It only had a flame array at the bottom. Therefore, there was only paper ashes in the entire fireplace.
It was a thick layer. I wonder how many pieces of paper Corey had burned here.
"Penny, can you try to see past these papers?"
"I can! Brother Thor, as long as no one deliberately erases it or covers it with mental power..." Penny's voice became smaller and smaller.
Compared to those nightmare butterflies that have existed for decades or hundreds of years, she is really just a child.
Thor smiled indifferently, "It's okay, just try your best."
Penny flapped her wings and landed on the top of the hill above the ashes. Then she shook her silver hollow wings violently, and the edge of the ashes rose into the air.
When they fell again, the gray fragments turned into white pieces.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
These white scraps of paper fluttered down and actually pieced together to form a complete piece of paper.
There were a few lines of text on the paper, twisting like little bugs, splitting and overlapping, and finally slowly stabilizing.
Thor looked down, and a solemn expression gradually appeared on his face.
"Corey discovered that there was something wrong with the wizard Aule a few years ago, but her notification letters were never sent out. Were they all burned in the end? Who did it?"
Wizard Oler did not specialize in light or dark attributes, and was not good at mental control of people. Moreover, the person to be controlled was Corey, a second-level wizard.
After Penny restored the letter, she did not stop casting the spell. The letter slowly flew out of the flames and hovered in the air.
It was as if there was someone standing there holding a piece of letter.
Two white fingers slowly appeared at the edge of the paper, then evolved into a complete palm, and finally expanded until the entire person appeared out of thin air.
It's... Corey! "So, the person who wrote the letter was Corey, and the person who burned the letter was also Corey?"
"It's not over yet, Brother Thor. I can feel that there is something very important..."
Penny's voice was full of effort, following Thor, she hadn't used her full strength in a long time while lying flat in the diary!
Thor continued to stare at Corey and noticed that there was suddenly a hint of red on the top of her head.
This hint of red was just like Corey's finger that had just appeared, slowly turning from a small dot into a complete body.
It's a red worm.
However, unlike the wizard Oler, Corey's body and head were not replaced by the worm. The red worm just lay quietly on the top of Corey's head, like her pet.
"When I saw Corey just now, there was definitely no red worm on her head. It doesn't make sense that I could see the monster on Ole but not on Corey. I've been in contact with Corey for a longer time."
"Brother Thor, this is the most complete past I have ever seen." Penny said in a low voice.
"Well done." Thor praised.
The scene in front of him gradually disappeared, and only the ashes in the fireplace proved Corey's past struggle.
"It doesn't matter. Corey is gone, but there are still other people here, right?" Thor temporarily put aside the pursuit of Corey and changed his target. "Wizard Oler is in the tower opposite. Let's go say hello to him."
