"Captain, we ...... Is it just gone?"

On the way, Kratan, who was following Thor, finally couldn't help but speak, and he saw that after Fenis had just run over and said a few words to the captain, the captain just threw down the half-cooked food and walked away.

Owen walked on the other side of Thor, a little apprehensive.

She knew very well that her spy actions had obviously been exposed, and she didn't know whether she should go back to the camp or continue to follow Thor at this moment, let alone what Thor would do to her, so that she was a little at a loss.

Thor stopped suddenly, and Owwen was startled.

"Go tell Fenis that little shiitake mushroom that I'm angry right now, so strike and let her come to me to apologize herself. Thor turned to Owon and smiled, and threw her back.

"Captain, why are you angry?" asked Kratan curiously after Owen left.

Thor gave a general account of what had happened today, and Kratan began to feel angry when he heard it.

"I wasn't in the mood to be angry, I just wanted to find an excuse to be lazy. Thor stretched.

"You're doing the right thing, it's too much of a bully, especially the last pot of stew......" The reason for Kratan's anger is obviously not the incident itself, but the fact that he is still haunting the flavored stew that was stolen from the pot last time.

In the camp, looking at the mess left by Thor shaking his hand, Phines could only arrange for someone to make everyone's food first.

When the food was distributed, seeing the disgusted looks of everyone in the camp, Phines laughed angrily. I used to eat these for hundreds of years, so why can't I eat them today?

After listening to Owen talk about Thor's strike declaration, Phines could only hold her forehead speechlessly.

"Is that guy so stingy?" said Fenis with a pouting and a smile, muttering, turning and walking away.

She knew that Thor was not angry at all, and she also knew that Thor was preoccupied and that his mind was not focused on his current life at all. It seems that this guy who is not his brother still hides a lot of secrets that he doesn't know.

Back at his quarters, Thor shrank straight into his tent.

Kratan, who has not yet eaten lunch, can only prepare food for himself by himself.

Wrapped tightly in the sackcloth quilt, Thor was not sleepy, his bright eyes flickering in the shadows of the tent's backlight. Finis didn't take Sol to heart, he didn't even think about it, he was just a little tired.

It's still that problem, I was in a coma after being bitten by a poisonous snake on the fifth day after the team came to this level. And now the team is about to end the journey of this level and go to the next level, and it is said that finding the exit to the lower level should be in the next few days.

Judging by the team's usual escape experience, this means that they have been delayed in the maze for nearly three months.

What tired Thor was that those three months meant nothing to him. He seems to be moving and talking every day, but it is equivalent to doing nothing, because he is still trapped here, and he doesn't know how long he will be sleepy.

Thor was not used to this kind of situation, and if he knew that he couldn't go back at all, the whole thing would be simpler. He can rest assured that he will fit into the team and become a part of them, live seriously, and let it be.

The problem is that he always thinks that this is an illusion, and he is afraid that once he lives seriously and pays some feelings, he will really be trapped in this illusion and will never be able to go back. Because you take the illusion seriously, it is likely that the key will disappear.

It was so torturous that Thor was in a trance and silent all day.

Although it was not possible to foresee the future before, it was at least possible to plan roughly.

For example, you can meet reliable companions and work together to build your territory. Then they live freely together, Timo's skull can fly everywhere, Staunt and Diller don't have to care about the eyes of other tribes, and they and Beth have a new home.

But now Thor feels that his future is very chaotic, he can't see anything clearly, and naturally he can't talk about planning. He suspected that he had the same problem as those who had fallen asleep after being promoted, and he was confused and couldn't find a way out.

So a deep tiredness haunted him all day long, not from the body, but from the spirit, which could not be solved.

In a trance, Thor felt that someone was pushing him.

Turning her head in a daze, she saw Phines sitting on the edge of her bed with her legs crossed.

"Is there something wrong with you?" Thor asked subconsciously as he rubbed his sleepy eyes.

"I'll pick you up. Phines replied.

"Pick me up?"

"Go home. ”

"I don't have a home, I can't go back. Thor's tone was a little gloomy.

"Stingy, you bullied me when I was a child, so I'm not allowed to take revenge now?" Fenis pouted.

"So you've lived a few hundred years and you only remember that little bit of from your childhood?" asked Thor with a smile.

"I only think of those things once in a while, and I remember that you are my brother. Phines replied.

"This is the first time you've called me, but it's useless to be sweet now, because I'm angry. It's not difficult for you to let me go back, two choices, either beg me here or learn to meow twice. Thor ignored Phines and turned to face inside.

The air was quiet for a long time.

“...... Meow" Finis looked back at the tent with the curtain closed, and tried to meow inexplicably.

"Learn two more pig meows. Unmoved, Thor gave the next command.

The surroundings were completely silent.

After a long time, Thor felt his quilt be lifted and someone lay next to him.

He turned around and saw Phines lying on her side on the pillow, quietly watching her. The two were separated by a small half an arm's length from each other, and Thor was not in a hurry, waiting for her explanation, but Phines just looked at him.

"Don't you hate me? Thor asked.

"I can't move it, I've been running for hundreds of years, and I can't even remember what my parents looked like. Phines replied.

"Well, it's rare to get so close, there's something I've wanted to do before. ”

"What~what?" Phines asked, turned over by Thor like a grilled fish, with his whole body facing away from him.

Then Thor wrapped his arms around her neck from behind, and suddenly reached into her arms through the hem of his coat, and into her arms, of course.

"You didn't spare your mother hundreds of years ago, are you finally going to attack me today?" Phoenix's face flushed, and she grabbed Thor's hand suddenly, and instead pressed Thor's hand tightly to her chest.

Thor didn't explain, he fumbled for a while, and the moment he touched it, he suddenly shook a little.

When he held the thing in his hand and pulled out the placket of Finis's clothes, his whole body even trembled faintly.

In Thor's palm, a small, delicate magic hourglass with a faint purple color lay attached to a thin hemp rope around Phines' neck.

In fact, Thor had noticed it many times before, and Finis would occasionally lower her head and quietly pull open her shirt to take a look.

At first, Thor was also a little puzzled, what was this little shiitake mushroom...... Because she has no self-confidence, she often observes her own development? Later, Saul thought that it was not, but she was actually quite large, and perhaps some relic of a loved one had been made into a necklace pendant by her.

It wasn't until Kratan joined that Thor accidentally asked how the team judged the passage of time in this labyrinth. After all, there is no alternation of night and day, and there is no cycle of four seasons, and even time has become inseparable.

Clattan's answer was simple, just four words, 'The captain knows'.

So Thor suddenly had an inexplicable conjecture in his heart, every time Phoenix's shirt was opened, he also wanted to probe to take a look, but he didn't dare, in case he was chased by the entire maze of the team, it would be very troublesome.

Today, Thor finally found a good opportunity to start.

"Are you...... How did you get this thing?" Thor was a little hoarse from his excessive anticipation.

"I picked it up in the maze, I can't remember which layer. Seeing Saul's solemn expression, Phines replied truthfully.

"And how much do you know about this thing?" asked Thor again.

"I didn't notice anything at first, but after I looked at it more, I realized that the sand in this thing changes color due to the passage of time, and the scales around it seem to be meaningful, so I thought it was a small tool to record time. ”

"After repeated observations, I finally figured out how to use it. Finis said.

"You're smart!" Thor rubbed her head with some emotion.

With the production level of this race, it should not be possible to make such a process, and on the premise that he has never seen it, Phines was able to determine the purpose of the magic hourglass through observation and guessing, and the little shiitake mushroom is indeed quite smart.

The hourglass-shaped crystal material is called an hourglass when the sand passes completely, and then the color of the sand can also be used to deduce whether it is dusk or dawn, and the scales around it are used to subdivide the time of each hourglass.

"Should I be happy if you complimented me like that? and do you know what this thing is?" Phoenixy looked at Thor.

Thor opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't speak.

At this moment, although he uncovered the mystery he longed to know, he fell into even greater confusion.

Since the whole labyrinth is a fantasy, why is there something that only exists on the mainland of Salvinia?

If the original demon soul can still be understood, this magic hourglass makes Thor feel a little subverted.

After all, the demon soul is an elusive thing, and on a material level, it is not even a substance, but more like an unknown force or energy. But the magic hourglass is different, it has a clear single purpose, and the key is that it is an artificial creation.

"I can give it to you if you want. Seeing that Thor didn't answer, Phines spoke directly.

"Keep it for yourself, this thing can accurately control the time, and make the life of the whole team more regular and efficient. ”

Thor took the magic hourglass and explained to Phines how to use it, such as the meaning of the scales and colors, and as he spoke, he put the hourglass back into Phines's arms.

Phoenixy blushed again in surprise, this guy was clearly deliberate, he obviously didn't have to reach in. I had to find an opportunity to chop off his claws, and Phoenixy happily decided.

Remember the permanent address of the Children of the Old Day
