Chapter Ninety-Four: Leaving the Wizard's Tower is about to temporarily turn back into a human
"I can get out of the tower...... "Thor has the illusion that he is going to get out of prison.
He felt like a balloon flying into the sky, and at the same time he landed empty and couldn't step on the ground.
He also thought that only after he was promoted to the second level would he get the chance to get out of the tower.
If he wants to increase his magic power to 50 joules, he will probably need half a year less.
Unexpectedly, an invitation from Byron's senior brought the time forward.
What task does Senior Byron need his help with?
He remembered that he had asked Byron to help him find a more complete soul body. I wonder if this invitation has anything to do with it.
"Are you leaving the tower?" Klee's voice rang out beside her.
"Hmm." Thor had a smile on his lips.
"Ah, that's great, I just happened to be going out too."
Klee is already a second-level apprentice, so it's not surprising that she can get the task of leaving the tower.
But this was also Klee's first time out, and Thor asked with concern, "Is it a dangerous mission?" ”
Klee shook her head.
She lowered her eyes and said without any emotion: "Just go get some materials for cultivation outside the tower, and go home by the way." ”
She didn't seem to want to talk about it, and raised her voice a little.
"It's your birthday and the good news that you can go out, so let's go back and eat cake to celebrate."
Klee grabbed Thor's shoulder again.
"Eat cake to celebrate your birthday? Isn't the cake ready to be eaten? Or is this cake not the kind I understand? Nick interjected curiously.
Since Nick was going out with Thor, Klee thought about it and extended an invitation to Nick.
"Please come and taste it, I just made it." She nodded.
"A very special cake, of course!" Thor was in good spirits, and without Klee's push, he took the initiative to take Nick out.
"Senior, please don't be polite, I'll give you some ...... of mine."
The day of departure, for some irresistible objective reason, was postponed by a day.
Nick was in a bit of a sluggish state of mind as he drove out of the Wizard's Tower with Thor in his car.
Thor, who stuffed most of his birthday cake into Nick's senior, leaned against the car window and looked out in high spirits.
They came out of the tower in a double-decker carriage. The carriage is small, and people can only lean on it and cannot lie down, which is not particularly comfortable. But the carriage was fast.
The chariot was driven by an adult male slave in the tower. Generally, those who live to this age have their own means of preserving their lives.
Along the way, the valet only speaks when necessary, and usually tries to maintain a quiet and low presence. Both Saul and Nick just call him the coachman, not even by name.
Thor could feel the fear coming from him.
Just like he was as nervous as he was when facing the Mentor and the Tower Master.
This is because there is a huge disparity in the level of power, and the sense of threat that arises cannot be eliminated by courage alone.
Nick was still reclining in the seat of the car to rest, and Thor had no one to share the joy of being out of the "cage", so he could only poke his upper body out of the window as if he had entered the city for the first time.
In April, the weather is a little cool, but the spring breeze is blowing, and the greenery has begun to cover the land.
The connection between the wizard's tower and the wasteland in the distance was also dyed new green from a single dark yellow.
Due to the speed of the carriage, some grass seed flying insects hit the walls of the wheels, leaving yellow-green traces.
Thor watched as the green mountains and dense forests got closer and closer to him, and even a few wild mice and hares occasionally popped up around him.
After looking at the new outside world for a while, Thor couldn't help but look back at the Wizard Tower.
The gray-black wizard's tower stands alone on the plain, empty and silent all around, as if nothing has changed for thousands of years.
Aside from the Wizards' buildings, there wasn't even a tall shrub around the Wizards' Tower.
It's as if even the plants are afraid of the Wizard Tower, keeping an absolute distance from the mysterious world there.
The carriage drove for most of the day in the empty and uninhabited wilderness, and finally came to the populated village and town.
But the carriage did not stop, not even near the villages, but sped quickly along the main road beside them.
Those villages and towns are not prosperous, and there are quite a few houses.
Thor saw that some of the people who had gone out immediately fell to their knees after seeing their carriage, and did not get up for a long time.
They were dressed plainly and oldly, but they did not see any unclothed people.
People in the outside world seem to be doing well.
The darkness of the Wizard Tower did not invade the surrounding ordinary people. The latter can also enjoy the environmental dividends that come with the Wizard's Tower.
Thor looked at it for a long time, and finally retracted his head.
After looking at the scenery for a long time, he always had a sense of outsider estrangement, and it was not as relaxed as he imagined.
It was as if the chains from the Wizard's Tower were still firmly tied to his neck.
When Saul sat back in the carriage in a daze, he found that Senior Nick had recovered his spirit and started reading books at some point.
Thor: "......"
Well, he thought about it, picked up his heavy backpack, put aside the various props and potions he had prepared, chose a less sensitive book, and read it.
They traveled for five days, stopping only in the middle of the night to rest, and even sleeping with meditation instead.
It's a kind of ascetic.
During the sixth day, Thor looked up from the dangling books, closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Senior Nick, do you know where we're going?"
"Go to the city of Mobian on the border of the Duchy of Kema, meet Byron first, and then ...... There is a high probability that it will go to the Valley of the Hanging Hands. But until then, I'll have to take a detour to do a small task and earn some credits. ”
Nick looked up from the book and winked at Thor, "It's hard to make a trip, there's still time to spare, you can't run in vain." ”
While the two were talking, the carriage suddenly stopped and shook the two of them.
"Have you arrived?" Thor hurriedly looked out, but all he saw was a field of farmland and a gentle hillside.
There are no towns on all sides.
At the foot of the hillside not far away, there was a group of dozens of people, riding horses, standing quietly.
One of the people in the team was holding a flag with silver on a blue background, and in the middle of the flag was a very abstract drawing of a rabbit with a snake in its mouth.
Nick suddenly put away the book in his hand and dodged out of the carriage.
Among the people on the opposite side, a tall middle-aged man ran over on his horse.
He wears the same light cloth armor of navy blue and silver, with only metal armor sewn to the vital points. He had a long sword at his waist, and he jumped off his horse about ten meters in front of Nick.
Thor saw the man walk up to Nick, get down on one knee, and give a chest-trodge.
Nick raised his hand to get him up, moving gracefully like a prince.
The two turned their backs to Thor and began to talk in a low voice.
Because of the distance, Thor couldn't hear what the two were talking about. It can only be seen that the middle-aged man has been very respectful, and Nick is still not emotional.
After a while, Nick walked back, but didn't get into the carriage.
"There's something going on over there in the family that needs me to go. The next way to Mobian City, I'm afraid you will have to go by yourself. ”
Thor asked in surprise, "What about the task with Senior Byron?" ”
Nick blinked, the corners of his mouth tensed, "I'll be able to finish things soon, and I dare to go to Mobian City from over there, and I won't be late." But ......"
Salton didn't think the turn was good.
Sure enough, I heard Nick continue, "I can only ask you to run that little task I took on." I'll transfer the mission credits to you. ”
