Chapter Ninety-Eight: Mo Shengguo and the Wandering Apprentice

That night, Thor slept in Ada's house.

He slept on the table, Ada slept on the bed, and Penny slept in the cupboard.

Three people occupy one place each.

It may be that the interaction between Saul and Penny in the evening stimulated Ada, and he deliberately turned out a hemp rope and tied it between the table and the bed, and hung it on it as a curtain.

Thor didn't fall asleep, and when the night covered the land and there was silence all around, he slowly opened his eyes.

He jumped off the table and lifted Ada's tattered quilt.

The people inside were already asleep.

Ada rolled to the edge of the bed at some point, one hand and one leg reaching out of the wooden bed.

Thor sat on the edge of the wooden bed and gently opened the large cabinet above.

This time there was no sound from the door.

Silent Portal, a very simple Tier 0 sorcery.

In the cupboard, young Penny was already asleep, much more honest than her brother.

Maybe it's the reason for sleeping in the cupboard all year round.

But Saul looked closely into Penny's eyes and saw that her eyelids were constantly moving, and they were intense.

This is a manifestation of human dreaming.

Penny's face was very bad, her brow was slightly furrowed, her lips were very tight, her hands and feet were curled together, and she slept very insecurely.

Thor immediately enters semi-immersive meditation and observes Penny.

But she was clean and didn't see anything else out of the ordinary—including her eyes.

Thor reached out and lightly touched Penny's eyes, then touched his own again, and felt that it was no different.

If it weren't for the diary endorsement, Thor wouldn't have seen anything unusual at all except that his eyes were beautiful.

But everything that can be used in a diary is quite valuable.

Do you want to take Penny's eyes away?

Thor has a way to safely remove Penny's eyes.

Anyway, the other party has long been out of sight.

Eventually, however, he withdrew his hand and closed the door again.

At this point, Ada rolled over, from the edge of the wooden bed back to the center.

Thor jumped off the wooden bed and left the place directly.

In the middle of the night, the full moon hangs high, and there are no cumulus clouds.

Under the slanting moonlight, the town was slightly illuminated.

For Thor, such light was sufficient.

"It seemed like it was a new moon yesterday, why did you jump to a full moon today?"

Thor stood on the deserted streets of the town, looking up.

"The little memory left by the original body seems to be true. It seems that the moon of this world is not just a celestial body. ”

Thor had been staying in the Wizard's Tower, and it was the first time he had noticed the moon's anomaly.

But now is not the time to look at the moon.

Before coming to Mofan Town in a carriage, Thor took a serious look at the Mosheng Fruit.

He didn't bring many books with him when he went out, at least he didn't have the plant chapter on everything with him.

Luckily, in the books that Nick left in the carriage, there is an introduction to the Grinding Fruit.

The mill fruit is a vine plant that hangs down like a gourd and is shaped like a recorder, and a sound like a grinding disc comes out as soon as the wind blows.

It's not a bad sound, but it's not friendly enough for ordinary people. Ordinary people will be upset when they listen to it, and they will be nauseous and dizzy after a long time, or even faint to death.

But it's also a good material for witchcraft, and it's hard to cultivate, and it's even harder to transplant.

It is for this reason that the Wizard Tower has accepted the refuge of Millsail Town, which is beyond its own radial range.

And in Senior Nick's book, it is recorded that the real effect of the grinding sound fruit is to calm people's emotions, calm down excited people, and also have a certain effect on spirits.

It's like a sedative.

Since it is a fruit that needs to be supplied to the wizard's tower, the grinding fruit will definitely not be raised in the field at will, and it should be carefully cultivated and guarded by someone at all times.

However, because the grinding sound fruit will make abnormal noises when it encounters the wind, ordinary people cannot plant in the open air and in windy places. Otherwise, you can't guard it at all, and if you're not careful, you will fail to cultivate.

Thor picked the tallest building in the neighborhood and climbed up, standing on top of the chimney and looking around the town of Millsail.

At this time, the town was unusually quiet, and there was hardly any light left.

But it also makes the light source in the northernmost part of the town extremely obvious.

Locking on to the target, Thor pulled the small algae used as a rope, slowly lowered the roof, and ran towards the target's location.

Arriving to the north of the town, Thor found that the location of the light source was still outside the town wall, so he climbed over the wall that was completely unguarded and came outside.

A few hundred meters from the northern wall of the town, a row of masonry houses was built.

The houses are surrounded by arched open lots, which are bordered by a three-metre-high fence and topped by a planked roof.

There was no wind tonight, and many of the planks were lifted, revealing the dark green vines and foliage inside.

The vines were not densely planted, and the fruit could be faintly seen hanging between the wide leaves.

Behind the clearing, a three-story tower also stands. The tower was pitch black, and all the windows were boarded up, giving off a faint sense of foreboding.

Thor jumped off the wall, carefully hiding his figure, and approached that side.

He remembered that Nick had said that there were two first-level wizard apprentices here. Although Nick described them as scumbag, it was for Nick, and Thor couldn't really let his guard down.

Once they find out that they are apprentices from the Wizard's Tower, they will definitely find ways to hide the reason for the decrease in the production of the grinding fruit - if there is any cat in it.

Thor cast another magic trick on himself, carefully avoiding possible prying eyes around him, and finally approached the fenced-in clearing.

Bonfires are lit and guarded by soldiers every few meters.

There were more of them than the guards standing guard at the town gates and patrolling the town combined.

Searching for a gap, Thor climbed onto a nearby rooftop.

This time he could clearly see the plants planted in the clearing.

The plants looked very similar to Nick's description. It's just that the fruit, which is supposed to be like a flute, is wrapped in a layer of pulp paper, revealing only a little tip that is connected to the stem and leaf.

Is this how they prevent the sound of the grinding fruit from being blown out by the wind?

But will the fruit grow well?

It also has to build a fence to protect it from the wind, and it has to be wrapped in paper, and it doesn't seem to be a place with plenty of rain......

If so, Thor felt that it was normal for the grinding fruit to reduce production.

Could there be other reasons?

Thor glanced around, and saw a house of the same size, but with soldiers on all sides, behind the row of houses.

Thor visualized the walking diagram of the human monster, carefully looked around, and found no unusual spirits.

Even the window-sealed tower was clean on the outside.

Sure enough, outside the Wizard's Tower, clean is the common thing.

With the effect of his magic tricks still continuing, Thor slipped through the second-floor window into the guarded house.

There were no lights in the house, and it was dim.

Thor looked at many places, but there was no one.

Eventually, he found an underground passage in the kitchen on the first floor.

The entrance to the passage is carefully hidden under a stove.

Despite the camouflage of the stove, Thor noticed something unusual.

The most important thing was that he felt a faint fluctuation of magic power from that entrance.

There's an apprentice wizard inside, and they're performing witchcraft.

Thor said secretly: "This magic fluctuation dispersion value is too high, at first glance, it is a wandering wizard who has not undergone orthodox teaching, no, a wandering wizard apprentice." ”

Now Thor believes Nick's words, if it were such two first-level apprentices, he would really kill them casually.

Despite the weakness of the enemy, Thor did not rush in.

Nine times out of ten, there will be traps at the entrance to a dark room like this to prevent outsiders from sneaking in, and Thor is not sure that he will not alarm the people inside when he enters.

He's here to eavesdrop, not to assassinate.
