Chapter Seventy-Four: Explain with examples what a locator is
Rum stretched out his hands and chanted a spell at the window.
The black window slammed shut, and the room was immediately darkened a few degrees.
Immediately afterwards, the window expands directly into the entire faΓ§ade that fills the "room".
Thor watched the change in front of him and forgot to breathe for a moment.
Like opening a surprise box, the black window slowly pours outward.
Sunlight penetrates into the room through the gaps, and gradually expands as the gaps widen, pouring in little by little until they fill the room.
Thor felt that the sunlight was a little dazzling, but he was reluctant to blink.
Mentor Rum beside him said, "Let's go and have a look." β
Thor dragged his feet tentatively towards the window, and little by little the scenery outside came into view.
In the distance, there was a clear blue sky, and puffy clouds that swam with the wind, and the sun was slanting overhead, a halo that kept Thor from looking at it for long.
There are black peaks beneath the sky, undulating. Dense forests fill the gaps in the cols and extend into the nearby plains.
There are scattered villages and mountain roads, which appear in the mountains and forests. Nearby, there is a gentle wilderness, with an unobstructed view, and no people or animals are seen.
The world is as peaceful as a painting.
"Hello, New World." Thor greeted the world from the bottom of his heart.
Suddenly, a clear sound broke the comfort.
A dark shadow streaked overhead, flying into the distance.
Thor looked up and saw a huge bird, breaking through the wind and waves at breakneck speed, into the clouds.
There seemed to be a man standing on the bird.
This change brought Thor back to his senses, and it became clear to him once again that what was in front of him was not a peaceful distant mountain village, but an anomalous world with wizards and high-end powers.
"Look good, you can take a closer look." Behind him came the advice of Mentor Rum.
Thul's gaze slowly shifted downward, the dark green wilderness mottled and faded, then brownish-yellow earth, then burnt yellow, and finally blackened.
Looking down again, the ground dozens of meters away from him turned out to be a quagmire of constantly churning bubbles.
From time to time, bones and weeds were churned out by bubbles, and after a brief struggle, they fell into the mud.
There were several mutilated corpses floating on it.
Some face up, some back up, some feet up, they float slowly under the churning of the mud.
Suddenly, a black, mud-covered tentacle silently burrowed out, rolled up a corpse, and slowly pulled it downward.
Naturally, the corpse did not struggle, but could only slowly sink into the mud.
Thor watched the tentacle disappear, and in a trance felt some cold reptile rubbing against his skin.
Where exactly is the Gorsa Wizard Tower located? Why is there a quagmire of corpses and monsters under the tower?
Will the apprentices who learn wizarding here, end up hiding in the mud, or riding the wind?
The beauty and silence were gone, and doubts and fears crept into Thor's heart.
Behind him came the voice of Mentor Rum.
"Terrible? Look at your feet. β
Thor lowered his head when he heard this, and his eyes shrank suddenly.
He found himself standing at the very edge of the black window, not knowing when.
Even most of the ball of the right foot is already in the air!
In the next second, he was about to fall and become one of the corpses floating in the mud.
Thor came back to his senses, slammed his right foot, and backed, backwards, and backwards, all the way to the innermost part of the room, and slammed his back against the wall.
Rum saw Thor's frightened appearance and laughed twice.
He leaned forward, a puddle of flesh flowing onto Thor's feet, warm to the touch.
He stretched out his palm, covering Thor's eyes.
"Both beauty and fear are tempting you to fall into the abyss, and the locator is like a black window, which can support your spirit when you are lost. But you have to pay attention to the locator can only delay your collapse, and in the end, you still have to sort out your consciousness by yourself to wake up. β
By the time Rum lowered his hand again, the room had been restored. The windows on the exterior wall were re-transformed into small windows one meter square, and the black glass opened inwards to allow a ray of light to peek in......
Thor was panicking just now.
He wasn't afraid of the birds in the distant mountains outside, nor was he afraid of the quagmire and bones nearby.
What Thor was afraid of was that he hadn't figured out how he had walked out of the window step by step.
As far back as he remembers, he just leaned over the window.
But this experience, combined with the previous transformation, also gave Saul a deeper understanding of the locator.
The locator is to help wizards recognize their own existence, so as not to get lost in the known and the unknown.
But its capabilities are limited after all. If you blindly rely on the locator and don't control your own desires, one day you will get out of the protective scope of the locator, fall into a puddle of flesh, or become something else.
At the same time, the locator is quite private information. If you are familiar with someone else's locator, you are likely to grasp the death hole of others. Therefore, it is taboo to listen to the locator casually.
Thor was immersed in summarizing himself, but Rum said quietly, "I have explained half of my knowledge to you myself, and you are not my apprentice." Well, count you 10 credits. β
Mentor, you're robbing!
Saul's mouth opened wide.
"Or give me ten days of work?"
Thor's mouth closed again.
I was waiting for him here.
He thought of the conversation he had with Mentor Rum when Tutor Kaz brought him over, and he was talking about asking him to help Mentor Rum.
In this case, Thor did not refuse.
It's just that there is a premise that must be made clear.
"Mentor Rum, I've only been studying for three months and I don't know what I can do."
Rum's eyes widened when he heard this, "Now I remember that I'm a newcomer?" If you look at what you're doing, is that what a newcomer should do? β
His belly was bulging like a toad.
"Go to the second lab on the fourteenth floor and look for Nick. By the way, let him solve the resentment on you by the way. β
It's the right thing!
Thor immediately stood up solemnly, "Thank you, Mentor Rum, I'll be over now!" β
He didn't hesitate any longer, saluted Mentor Rum and walked out.
As he put his hand on the curtain, Rum's voice came from behind him.
"Before you move on to the second level of apprenticeship, you can think about it. Choosing a major attribute that doesn't suit you is actually a painful thing. β
Thor paused, and Mentor Rum's words were a little emotional.
Didn't Mentor Rum like his current research direction?
Thor lifted the curtain and walked out, and at the last moment, he glanced back into the room.
The candles in the room seemed to be deliberately dimmed, with only one beam of light coming in.
The Roshan-like Rum Mentor sat in the shadows of the room.
Everything is so blurry.
The heavy curtain quickly stopped shaking, obscuring Thor's snooping vision.
After leaving Mr. Rum's room, Thor hurried towards the lab.
He had felt that the nightmare thing couldn't be put off before, and if it wasn't for Mentor Rum's help today, he would have gone to Senior Byron or someone else.
The good news at the moment is that in the eyes of Mentor Rum, solving this resentful spirit is a trivial matter, and he doesn't even bother to do anything, and only asks a senior to help Thor.
"I hope that senior is more talkative." Thor thought silently.
Thor left Rum's room and walked briskly towards the ramp, the mentor's floor was much quieter than the apprentice's.
The three second-level apprentices who had just lined up at the door were gone.
Looking at the deserted hallway under the bright candlelight, Thor suddenly had a strange idea.
This wizard tower, trapping the minions, trapping the apprentices, does it trap the others as well?
Is it true that the owner of this tower is the only one who is truly free, the tower owner Gorsa, who was once nicknamed "Pink Big" by Saul?
When Thor met the tower master today, he was wrapped in a brown-red cloak robe. The little chin that was exposed showed that Gorsa was also wrapped in a pink silk bandage.
Will such a tower owner be free?
