Chapter 44: First Cooperation
Thor paused and stopped directly in front of Mark.
He didn't really want Mark to know that he knew Byron.
"Senior, I'd like to ask you if there's another way to earn credits."
"Don't you have enough credits?" Mark thought it was strange that a rookie apprentice could have so many credits?
However, he soon remembered that Thor was going to study the transformation of the witch body on his own, and the investment in this research was a bottomless pit.
"Come in and talk about it."
Mark got out of the way.
Mark's dormitory has the same structure as Kongsha's dormitory, but it is very messy inside, and the floor is full of unknown things.
There was only an open space for the long table, but there was also only one chair.
Mark sat down in his chair and brought a box with his foot, motioning for Thor to sit down.
"Actually, with your current job, it's easy to earn more credits."
Thor honestly looked up at Mark.
"Have you heard of the Mutual Aid Society?"
Saul was shocked and pretended to remember, "I've heard from people in my batch, but I was too busy to be there. ”
Then he cautiously asked, "Senior...... You're also a member of the Mutual Aid Society? ”
Mark waved his hand, "I'm not, that mutual aid is actually a small group of third-level apprentices and a few second-level apprentices. However, those who usually come forward to manage are second-level apprentices. ”
The familiar mocking smile hung on the corner of Mark's mouth again, "It's said that it's mutual aid, and the newcomers go, but they are all exploited." ”
"However, the mutual aid association also got some interesting things, such as the exchange meeting. It is a bit cheaper than the goods in the grade in the registration room of the college. Like you, if you have the goods in hand, you can go there and sell them and make some money. ”
"Got the goods?" Thor asked tentatively, "You mean I'll sell the morgue's stuff?" However, didn't the mentor refuse? ”
"You are a newcomer, so naturally you lack the means, but you can clearly mark the price and let those who are interested find a way to take it away."
Thor was a little hesitant about the proposal.
There was a chance that he wanted to go to the exchange to have a look, but the parasite that Klee encountered last time was a big problem.
It might be safe for a senior like Mark Byron to go to the exchange meeting. But those people are likely to be poisoned because he is a newcomer.
It would be nice if anonymous participation was allowed.
But on second thought, there are a number of apprentices in the wizard's tower, and even if everyone is masked, it is easy for people to guess where he came from.
What if someone stabs this to Mr. Kaz...... Well, there are some things that are done secretly, and it is not good to put them on the surface.
"Thank you, senior, I'll think about it."
Mark saw Thor's worries and comforted him: "You don't have to worry about this, the last person in charge of your job has been selling things at exchange meetings." And the person who bought his things, in order to continue to cooperate in the future, will also intentionally help him keep secrets. ”
Thor asked with a little expectation, "Senior, do you need anything?" ”
Mark couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Do you think you can have what I need?"
Saul felt that he might have it, but there was no need to rush to expose it in front of Mark.
After leaving Mark's dormitory, Thor went straight back to the second floor of the East Tower.
Let's postpone the visit to Byron's seniors.
When Thor was about to find no one, he stuffed a note telling Byron to meet on the second floor of the East Tower.
Hopefully, Senior Byron will be interested in the model he has built with other compound runes.
Compared with the exchange meeting with hidden dangers, it is still Byron senior who is more reliable.
After two days, Thor had not been able to wait for Byron's senior, apparently he had already stuffed the note into Byron's dormitory.
"He's not going to be gone, is he?"
Thor's refining materials have been completely exhausted, and there are a few more plastic bones in his hands, but there is still no substantial progress in the transformation of the witch body.
In his spare time, he had already successfully performed the Tier 0 sorcery of "Fighting Necromancy".
If Byron-senpai had left the Wizard's Tower, Thor would rather smuggle the mortuary's materials than give his experience to other strangers.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door of the morgue.
Thor was a little surprised, Mentor Kaz only came yesterday, and it would normally take four or five days to come.
Who will come to him now?
Saul opened the door, and it turned out to be the cold senior sister who had replaced Byron's work.
The other party is still looking at people with his chin raised.
"Come here, do me a favor."
With that, she turned and walked back, as if sure that Thor would follow.
Thor hesitated for half a second, then closed the door and followed.
He was the first to enter the first morgue.
As soon as he stepped forward, he was shocked by the scene inside.
It's not like his morgue at all, or it's not called a morgue at all.
It's more like dancing the god scene.
The walls above and around the head are painted with black lines, and between the lines are runes of various sizes.
Candles of different heights were scattered all over the floor, some lit and some extinguished. Between the candles are also drawn circles with no apparent purpose.
In the middle of the room stood three sarcophagi, each wide open, with three corpses standing inside.
It's normal to see a corpse in a morgue.
But the three bodies here give Thor a bad feeling.
They were able to stand there without any restraints, and if Thor hadn't seen the obvious mortal wounds on their bodies, he would have easily thought that three living people were standing there with their eyes closed.
"These are the three new ones that came in today." The senior sister took her hand and stopped at the door, "But something went wrong, the second-level apprentice in the middle ......"
The senior sister raised her finger and pointed at the corpse in the middle that was slashed from the shoulder to the chest with a sharp weapon.
"He brought an evil spirit with him. If the evil spirit is not removed, the materials on this corpse will not be used. ”
"But the evil spirit is cunning, and whenever I try to kill him, he immediately moves to the other two corpses. And once my witchcraft is transformed, I have to start all over again. ”
Dealing with evil spirits?
Thor thought to himself, "I wonder if the fight against necromancy I just learned is good?" ”
But on the surface, he said, "Senior sister, I don't have any means to deal with evil spirits now......
"Of course I do." Senior Sister sneered, "I just asked you to help me determine the location of the evil spirit, and tell me at the last moment of spell casting, so that he won't run away again and die of trouble." ”
The senior sister raised her hand and threw something to Thor.
Thor then looked down and saw that it was a soft piece of leather.
I don't know what the leather is, it is white and delicate, warm to the touch, and it smells a little fragrant with flowers and plants.
There are two small holes in the middle of the leather, and the holes are about half a palm's width apart.
There weren't any magic runes drawn on the leather.
"You put this mask on your face and sit in the circle in the corner, and you can see where the evil spirit is. Go ahead and don't waste time. Sister Bing Leng Xue urged impatiently.
"Senior sister, I'm ......"
The other party interrupted Thor again, "Got it, you want to be paid, right?" and so on to solve the evil spirits. The corpses of the other two first-level apprentices, you can choose one at random and take it with you. I'll write in the mission register that only one first-level apprentice and one second-level apprentice corpse were taken in today. ”
You can even take a corpse directly?
Thor had always felt that he had gone too far by appropriating some materials from time to time.
Unexpectedly, this second-level apprentice senior sister actually gave away a complete corpse without blinking her eyes.
The corpses sent to the morgue were all abnormal, and they could not be buried directly. But if it's dealt with, these anomalies are the best dark attribute materials.
It can be said that it is very valuable.
Thor only needs to help the senior sister observe the location of the evil spirit, and he can get so much reward?
Could it be that the mission itself is actually dangerous, for example, that the evil spirit may attack Thor.
"Senior sister, can I ask, why don't you look for Senior Hayden, but for me?"
