Chapter 33: The Hard Book Upgraded?
Thor once again observes the ...... on the portal from a semi-immersive perspective The pieces of meat, this time were not covered with the vague layer of holy light.
Suddenly, Thor sensed something.
He jerked his head sideways at the portal, a pair of eyes staring at him in horror behind the black tassels.
Thor walked towards the portal with the bloodied bone chopping knife with minced meat hanging from it.
He lifted the black leather tassel and saw the person crawling backwards inside.
The light of the room slanted into the portal, cutting a line of light and darkness on the man's face.
Thor narrowed his eyes and guessed the man's identity.
"Senior, it's the first time we've met, come and talk."
"Ahh......h ”
Thor smiled.
"Thank you so much, I'm just too busy here, can you help me move it in?"
"Look ......at me," he said, showing Hayden's thin body, "I'm young and don't have the strength to carry something that heavy." ”
Hayden's smile froze on his face, he was just polite!
But looking at the bone chopping knife that Thor still held tightly in his right hand, Hayden still compromised.
He crawled out of the portal step by step, "Haha, are you too young, are you ten years old?" Seniors are here to help you move. ”
"Wait a minute." Thor abruptly threw the bone-chopper back to the tool table, making a clanging sound, then turned back to Hayden and smiled.
"Senior, I'm kidding, are you really coming over like this? Go back quickly, this is not the passage that a living person should take, I can do this work myself, otherwise the mentor may misunderstand that I am not suitable for this job. ”
"Huh? Alright then, you can call me if you need to. Hayden froze halfway through and couldn't retreat again.
Thor stood at the portal, lifted the tassel, and watched coldly as Hayden retreated step by step before retreating to the room he was in.
The tassel fell on the opposite side, obscuring the light that entered the passage from that side.
This passage is three meters long and about one meter wide and high. It is surrounded by thick walls that separate the two rooms.
If it weren't for the middle passage, the soundproofing of the room would have been very good.
Thor lowered the tassel and looked up, where the candlelight on the portal had turned dim again.
That's all for today's work.
There are still some finishing touches to be done, though.
So push the large box under the workbench next to the conveyor belt, and then pick up the bone chopping knife again and scrape the meat off the conveyor belt little by little.
A round rumbling thing fell down the edge of the conveyor belt, bouncing on the ground a few times, and finally rolled all the way to the doorway, where it was blocked by the door.
What is that?
Thor walked to the door with his knife in hand, ready to attack.
When he got closer, he saw that something on the ground seemed to be ...... An eyeball?
The clamshell flew up again and appeared in front of Thor, who was immediately on full alert.
[New Moon Calendar Year 314, June 24, Sunny.]
It's a good day, you've dodged a cunning foe, sent him where he's supposed to be, and harvested a Phantom Eye.
It's really strange, why can the eyes speak?
Or do you think the eyes are talking? 】
This time, Saul didn't understand much about the content of the hard book.
He didn't understand how he died?
Eye? Hallucination?
Could it be that his eyes will crack? The mouth disappears, or will it be sealed?
And Saul noticed that there was an abrupt description of the weather behind the date in the hard book, which he remembered never before.
Just as Thor froze in place, not knowing what to do, the hardcover flew back to his left shoulder.
But he didn't do anything, huh?
Thor's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in his heart, "Isn't this a death prediction?" Rather, it's an identification technique that resembles an item profile? ”
Thor looked sideways at the hardcover book on his left shoulder, "Dude, you've upgraded?" ”
It's a pity that the hardcover book is quiet, and it still doesn't bird him.
"Well, you should get yourself a brief first."
Despite his speculation, Thor remained vigilant, clenching the bone chopping knife in his hand and slowly approaching the eyeball in front of the door.
Judging from the performance of the hard book, the content just now should not be a death warning, but this is just Thor's own speculation, and he can't let his guard down yet.
Until Thor walked to the eyeball and slowly squatted down, took out a box, and dialed the eyeball in with the back of the knife, the hardcover book did not come out again to warn.
Thor stood up and sealed the box, excited in his heart.
Although he has dodged the death warning many times, the harvest each time is only to temporarily save his life, but he didn't expect to have an additional drop today.
It's a pity that the hard book didn't give him any hints before Thor noticed the abnormality of his eyeballs.
I wonder if it can be upgraded again in the future and become a radar that can actively explore?
Putting away the pupils of illusion and the fantasy of the hardcover book, Thor moved his facial muscles to make himself look more gloomy.
Then, carrying a bone chopping knife, he pushed open the door of the corpse.
Ever since he came to the second floor of the East Tower, he hadn't explored the depths of the hallway.
He walked down the hallway, which was still curved, but at a wider angle than the tenth floor.
The lights on the second floor seem to be dimmer all the time than the rest of the place, and the further you go inside, the dimmer it becomes.
At the end of the hallway, it was pitch black, and Thor couldn't see what was hiding behind the shadows.
After a dozen steps, a second scarlet gate appeared.
This should be the morgue where the senior in charge of the second process is located.
Thor stepped forward and knocked on the door.
It was a long time before there was a sound from inside the door.
The door was opened with a small crack.
Hayden's face appeared behind the crack in the door, his body blocking the room tightly.
"Senior, excuse me. My name is Saul and I started my apprenticeship a month ago. I don't know the name of my predecessor, which is really rude. ”
"I'm Hayden." Hayden's hand pressed against the door tightly, as if ready to close it at any moment, "I became a first-class apprentice much earlier than you. What are you here for? ”
"I want to ask Senior Hayden, did you feel anything wrong with the corpse just now?"
Hayden moved uncomfortably, "Ah, that, I think it's a little strange. But I didn't see anything wrong, and I didn't see where there was any value, so I threw it at you. Ha, I think you've handled it pretty well. ”
Thor stared straight at Hayden until the other avoided his gaze and muttered, "Well, I may have been wrong." ”
Thor grinned stiffly, "I'm going to have to trouble the senior more after that." ”
Bidding farewell to Hayden, he turned and walked towards the first morgue.
Hayden saw Thor walking away and hurriedly closed the door.
As soon as the door closed, his expression changed, and he said in a low voice, "What are you trying to do with a new apprentice?" ”
Hayden's expression changed again, and he rubbed his hands uneasily, "Then, no, there is no need to have a conflict, there will be time to get along with each other in the future." ”
On the other side, Thor placed the bone chopping knife in the shadow of the hallway.
The knife is against Hayden, but it can't be like this when I see Senior Byron.
He rubbed his face, and his gloomy face became polite again.
"Knock knock."
The same scarlet door slowly opened, and the light from the house poured out, and a woman who was only half a head taller than Thor stood in the doorway.
Thor was stunned.
"I'm here to find Senior Byron, who are you?"
The woman's eyes were half-closed, and a voice that didn't rise or fall sounded, "Byron, he's old enough to leave the tower, go back and pack his things." ”
"Leaving the tower?" Solton forgot his original purpose and asked in amazement, "Are we going to leave the tower when we reach a certain age?" ”
