Chapter 153: Dead Man's Flower
Thor had a dream.
When he opened his eyes, he jerked over, stuck his head out of the bed, and retched a few times.
Because he hadn't eaten seriously for a long time, he only vomited a little sour water.
On the contrary, my throat hurt hotly because of this.
He casually wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, forgetting that his hand had turned to bone.
Now it's the mouth and throat that hurt together.
He sat up from his bed, pleasantly surprised to find that the exhaustion and headache from the previous night were gone.
"Is it so good to sleep? Was it wrong for me to always use meditation instead of sleeping? ”
Thor got up in good spirits and cleaned up his personal hygiene.
"Think about what you're going to do today?"
Meet Mentor Kaz first? Or do you want to go to the registration room first to change the name tag of the second-level apprentice?
Or ask Byron's senior to share the reward for this mission.
This outing, Thor has gained a lot, but also added more questions.
But things can only be done little by little.
In the end, he decided to go to Nick for a physical examination first.
After all, he may have a spirit attached to him, and this matter still needs to be resolved as soon as possible.
Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for him to do a lot of things.
However, when Thor went to the twelfth floor of the West Tower to look for Nick, he found that there were several second-level apprentices around the place.
Level 2 apprentices don't like to join in as much fun as Level 1 apprentices, so it's a rather rare sight.
Thor couldn't help but walk over.
There weren't many onlookers, and even the modest Thor easily found a vacancy.
Thor frowned slightly when he saw the scene inside.
Dead.
It's a minion, and it shouldn't be more than fifteen years old.
One of the remaining legs stood firmly on the ground, the other leg was twisted to an oblique upward angle, and both hands were raised diagonally upward.
The skull bloomed with a flower.
Flesh and blood are used as petals, and white bones are used as stamens.
Leave one arm and one leg as a leaf, and leave one limb as a flower stem.
Thor pursed his lips with difficulty.
He was a little disgusting.
It wasn't for the strange appearance of the corpse - he had seen many more terrifying things in the morgue.
It's because he knows the body.
Last night, it was he who had trimmed the young servant little by little to look like this.
He also remembered how the extra flesh and bones were chewed a little by him and then devoured into his stomach.
"Thor." Suddenly someone called him.
Thor turned back, and it was the Nick he was looking for.
At this time, Nick also saw the dead in the crowd, and his brows twitched slightly.
"Dead Man's Flower."
"What?"
Also known as osteostamen, it is a ritual of an extinct species to sacrifice the deceased. I didn't expect it to appear in the Wizard's Tower again. ”
At this time, a person next to him answered, "This is not the first case. ”
The man who spoke clasped his hands to his chest, his face full of disgust.
"Surrey? Are you physically recovered? "Nick obviously knows him.
"It's just a matter of living, can you still die?" Sarri spoke very politely.
But Nick doesn't get angry and introduces him to Thor.
"Thor, recently promoted to the second rank."
Temporarily suppressing the disgusting Saul, he nodded at Sarri.
But Sarri only glanced at Saul, not even wanting to make a show.
"Are you saying this has happened before?" Thor didn't care about the other party's attitude, he was more curious about the Dead Man's Flower.
Sarri looked at him coldly, and was about to say something when Nick interrupted him.
"You'd better be polite to Thor."
Sarri looked at Nick in some surprise, and saw that the other party didn't look like he was joking, so he replied to Saul with some embarrassment.
"This is the fourth case in nearly half a month." His tone was already bad, but now it was even more stiff, "The Administrator has issued a mission to the second-level apprentice before. Now it seems that to solve this matter, I am afraid that a third-level apprentice will need to take action. ”
Feeling a little itchy, Sarri raised his hand and scratched his cheek.
He pushed so hard that the sharp nails pierced the skin at once, and a few drops of blood oozed out of the wound and soaked into his nails.
But both Maurizio Sarri and Nick are commonplace.
"Satisfied, right?" Sarri lowered his hand and looked at Saul, this time with a little more inquiry in his eyes.
Thor was not polite, and continued to ask, "Who do you think it will do?" ”
Perhaps Saul's attitude was too natural, and Sarri subconsciously replied: "Maybe it's a hopeless second level of hard work." ”
After saying that, Sarri turned his head and left, not giving Saul a chance to continue asking.
Nick watched the excitement from the sidelines, and watched happily, and only then did he say to Saul, "Are you moving or are you coming to me?" ”
"I want you to check for me again to see if I have any spirits attached to my body."
Nick agreed, "No problem, let's go to the lab." ”
Sitting in the inductive chair in the laboratory again, Saul had mixed feelings.
"Just check if there are any spirits, you don't turn on the power so much."
"No problem."
Nick was burying his head in the needle and stopped when he stuck it in his arm.
"That's it for you?"
Thor looked at his pair of white bone hands, and there was really no way to get a needle.
"I'll wait until I solve my problems first."
Nick tried to stick the needle into the bone, but when he failed, he threw the wires on the ground.
"Forget it, it's not bad for these few, so I'll start?"
Maybe after warning Nick didn't turn up the power that much, maybe maybe Thor was 14 years old and a little more willpower than before.
In short, this time he was not so comfortable that he lost consciousness, and he even had the time to remember last night's dream.
Last night in a dream, he walked in the ice and snow for a long, long time.
I finally found a small house with candlelight shining through the window.
It must be warm here!
That's what Saul thought at the time.
Despite being cold and hungry, he restrained himself and knocked on the door with a polite rhythm.
There was someone in the room, he was sure, but he wouldn't let him in.
Thor was angry.
He thinks even if you don't want to give him food, let him in and take shelter from the snow.
How can a man be so selfish?
So he knocked on the door with more force.
A chuckle came from the room, as if mocking him, the poor beggar.
Thor was even angrier.
He slammed the door down, vowing to show the people inside.
Finally, with his continuous efforts, the door lock was loosened, and he kicked the door open, and what greeted him was a sumptuous meal.
Thor couldn't help but pounce any longer.
He didn't want revenge anymore, he just wanted to eat all these delicacies.
But just as he took his mouth, the sluggish and unnibble piece of meat mixed with the heavy smell of blood immediately awakened Thor's consciousness.
Finally found out that I was dreaming.
But in this dream, he couldn't control his movements at all, and he couldn't even move his eyes and look around.
His eyes kept on the bloody boy in front of him.
The stomach burns with hunger, the tongue screams, and it is not enough! Not enough!
Thor just like that, while staying awake, he watched himself brutally kill the boy.
After enjoying the meal, he folded a fake flower and left it in the room as a reward for the host's hospitality.
"Gan!"
Thor snapped his eyes open, the feeling of nausea completely overpowering the comfort.
Nick on the other side put down the operation panel in a daze, "Why is your face so bad?" Did I get my parameters reversed? ”
Thor took a deep breath and let himself take a break from the memory.
"No," Thor didn't want to answer the question, "have you checked for any spirits on me?" ”
Nick could feel Thor's irritability, but since the other party didn't want to say it, he didn't mention it.
"No, there are no emotions other than the little guy at the back of your neck. If you feel entangled in a spirit, it may just be some remnants that will disappear in two days. ”
Nick walks over to help Thor untie himself.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome." Nick hesitated for a moment and asked the question that had been held all night, "Tower Master, is he really your ......"
"Don't talk about it."
"Understood." Nick immediately stopped his curiosity, but he still reminded Thor, "It's just that I wasn't the only one on the ship that day. There is a good chance that this matter will be spread. ”
Thor shook his wrist, the electric shock just now activated the anti-electric field he had engraved on the white bones, and now the cracks in the bones were a little sore.
"It's okay." He said.
Anyway, the tower owner took the initiative to find out in front of people, and Thor didn't care if this secret would be revealed.
Suddenly, an arm-thick black tentacle stretched out from the back of Thor's neck and fell to the ground.
The tip of the tentacle cracked open a shark's mouth, and a black tongue protruded from it, also slumped on the ground.
His mouth was still panting.
Nick: "It'...... The reflection arc is so long. ”
Thor: "......"
Today go relatives, probably ...... Firecrackers were set off last night, and the smell of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger
