Chapter 156: The Cold Truth
Thor almost threw a blow at the Necromancy.
Remembering that the dark shadow didn't show obvious malice last night, he restrained the idea of going up to fight.
"Who are you? Why do you keep following me? β
The dark shadow gradually solidified and cleared, with a slender figure, and seemed to be wearing a skirt. But I still can't see my facial features, only a pair of eyes, which are getting more and more red.
"Why?" The black shadow jumped to the table and sat down, the books on the table passed through her body, but he was able to sit firmly on the table, "If it weren't for Gorsa asking me to look at you, you think I would be willing to follow?" β
"Tower Master? You ......" Thor suddenly recalled two images.
One was the human-sized black shadow he saw in the Soul Fluctuation Perceptor at the entrance to the Valley of Hanging Hands, standing in the crowd of human head monsters.
At first, he thought he was seeing an evil spirit, but Nick reminded him that the perceptron wasn't turned on.
Second, on the sailboat, when he was resting on the deck, he saw the same black shadow in the perceptron again. Dismissed his conjecture that the shadow was the evil spirit Morton.
"You're the one who appeared in the perceptron? You've been following me? β
"Yes," the shadow shook his feet, "I've been following you since you left the Wizard's Tower. Including you being tricked to Millsail by that Nick, including you bullying a little girl to gouge out someone's eyes, and you playing that unruly apprentice in that tower. β
Thor's heart tightened, and he remembered if he had said anything about his diary when he was alone.
But fortunately, Saul and the diary communicate by telepathy, and outsiders will not be able to discover the existence of the diary except that he will think that he is acting a little strange.
"Tower Master, are you asking you to protect me?"
"Hah!" The Black Shadow chuckled briefly, as if mocking Thor's whimsy, but opened his mouth in disguised admit, "You can understand that. After all, he also said, try not to let you die. β
"So, you appeared in the perceptron twice, both to save me?" Thor asked, but he didn't wait for the shadow to answer, and immediately said, "I can return to the Wizard's Tower, and I really want to thank you for your help." β
Whether what the black shadow said is true or not, there will be no less meat to thank you first.
But Thor can't let the Black Shadow follow him all the time, otherwise he won't be able to carry out a lot of experimental research.
"Although it didn't help in the valley of the hand...... Then you should thank me too! Otherwise, why do you think Gorsa appeared? The shadow's voice was a little muffled at first, but then it became more reasonable.
At the same time, she even saw through Thor's intentions, "Are you trying to drive me away?" Hmph, you think I want to stay next to you boring guy? Look at the content you're researching, it's just low-level! β
The dark shadow's voice raised slightly, "It's just that Gorsa asked me to stay for the time being and answer you about Morton." β
Thor suddenly raised his head, looked at the other party's bright red eyes, and hurriedly pulled out the puppet doll that the tower owner had given him.
At this time, the doll's eyes are even more bright red.
"You? You? Are you Lady Yola? β
Could it be that Gorsa is referring to this when he says that the particularity of the Lady Eula?
This strange form is indeed different from ordinary spirits. The personality is also like a little girl.
As soon as the dark shadow heard Yura's name, his voice immediately turned cold. Even though I can't see her face, I can feel her gloom.
"I'm not Yora!" She said fiercely, "I'm just a copy of Gorsa's work to resurrect his wife." β
Thor gasped, "Making souls? β
"Forget it, what to say to a second-level apprentice of yours. You can call me Winnie, anyway, I don't even have a half-character relationship with Yura! The self-proclaimed spirit Winnie shook her finger at Thor.
This dark shadow is lively at one moment, gloomy at another, and his personality is as moody as that of an evil spirit.
"Okay, let's not talk about that." Winnie clasped her hands to her chestβthough she couldn't see it with both hands on her chest, "What do you want to know about Morton?" β
"Will being possessed by an evil spirit have a lasting impact on my body and spirit?"
According to Byron, after defeating Morton, not only did Thor's hands dissolve and fall off, but even his body was almost completely waxed.
Although Sol later returned to normal after some unknown events, the incident still worried Thor.
"Yes, most people who are possessed by evil spirits will have a very serious impact." Speaking of this, Winnie was happy again and seemed to be very interested in the topic.
"If you are possessed by an official wizard-level evil spirit, it stands to reason that even if you are rescued, you will be sick for a few years or go crazy. That level of pollution is no joke. β
Winnie jumped off the table and walked around Thor with her hands behind her back.
"But the spirit ester on your body almost blocks most of the dangerous soul energy for you, and the part that can't be absorbed also strangely dissipates after the evil spirit dies."
She walked behind Thor and pressed her black silhouette arm against the back of Thor's head.
The cold breath ran down Thor's pores and gradually froze his skin and muscles, but when he came back to his senses, he realized that it was just an illusion, and his skin was still intact.
"Your mental power is extremely strong, and that magic circle has affected Morton's consciousness. I guess that's why you survived. β
"But strange and strange here. Although the consciousness of the evil spirit has been defeated by you, he should have a chance to escape. But it disappeared completely, and there was no trace left. β
Winnie's dark shadow walked up to Thor again, and her black silhouette arm moved from the back of her head to Thor on her forehead.
Thor looked up at Vinnie, his eyes calm and not dodging.
"It's like a bone that was originally difficult to gnaw, but it automatically turned into rice porridge. Not only did it not leave residual thoughts to affect your cognition, but also took the initiative to help you improve your mental strength a little. Is this Morton's anomaly, or is it your special? β
Is it clean?
Thor closes his eyes, it must be a credit to the diary!
The diary is not interested in soul energy or soul fragments, but likes to close the consciousness body in a small black room after death.
If it weren't for the existence of the diary, Thor would have been possessed by such a powerful evil spirit, and even if he had survived, he would have looked crazy by now, and might even have a lifelong effect.
Winnie didn't know the diary existed, after all, she didn't participate in Thor's brain war.
She withdrew her fingers in confusion, rubbing her thumb and forefinger gently in circular motions.
"Is that your talent? No wonder Gorsa thinks so highly of you. A soul as clean and pure as you is the soul of a living person. β
Thor also had a guess about the tower owner's experiments.
Is it the posthumous Lady Yora, whose consciousness is polluted. Therefore, to resurrect Lady Ula, it is not as simple as finding her a physical body.
Removing the pollution from the soul must be difficult and dangerous.
To ensure the integrity of the soul and to remove the pollution, Gorsa has been studying for a long, long time, and he can't help it, so he has been cultivating Thor with soul talent since he was a child?
But given that the tower master's cultivation of Thor is more of a free-range state, it is more likely that even the tower master does not know how much Thor can help with his soul talent.
So apart from giving some general direction, he hardly sways any of Thor's decisions.
"Ahh He guided me in my studies and let you protect me. Thinking that he was trying to resurrect his wife...... This wizarding world is not as cruel and cold as I thought. β
Unexpectedly, after listening to Saul's words, Winnie actually began to laugh wildly.
She smiled so exaggeratedly that she even bent over with her stomach clutched.
The laughter echoed in the second storeroom, gradually sharpening, and Thor was creepy to hear it, and his brain tingled.
"Lady Winnie?" Thor covered his ears with his hands in pain.
The laughter had begun to take on a lethal effect, and Thor's hands were not strong, they were all seams.
In a few moments, a stream of heat flowed down his ears.
"Lady Winnie!" Thor had no choice but to call out to the other party.
Winnie finally stopped.
She turned, her bright red eyes darkening, as if soaked in a layer of water.
"You are so naΓ―ve! The wizarding world has only cold laws and even colder interests! All emotions are nothing more than mutual investment and influence. β
Thor was silent, he lowered his hand and looked at Winnie without speaking.
Seeing Thor's appearance, Winnie knew he didn't believe it.
"Sure enough, it's still a child!" She chuckled, "Then I'll tell you one more truth." β
Winnie didn't have a mouth, but this time her voice was slow and gentle, as if learning Gorsa's tone.
"Gorsa's wife, Yula, was killed by his own hands! And Gorsa's so-called resurrection is just to find a way back for himself. β
