Chapter 208: Kismet
The moment Gorsa's hand rested on Thor's shoulder, Thor felt himself sinking.
This sinking feeling is strange, like passing through a curtain of water, and it is also like popping a bubble.
As he crossed the film, Thor vaguely saw countless pairs of eyes watching him and Gorsa.
Those eyes were dense, one after the other, and the holes were as small as the eye of a needle, and as Thor sank, he slowly moved his gaze.
When Thor and those eyes met, he immediately felt inexplicably panicked and uneasy, as if someone had smashed him in the heart with a punch, depressed and suffocated.
Then, his eyes were dark and bright, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he had returned to the second storeroom.
The feeling of being watched just now is gone.
In front of him were the familiar queues of corpses, and behind him were tall shelves.
"Was it just the feeling of teleportation? Why was it that I couldn't perceive it before, but this time I was able to perceive the process of spatial transfer? ”
Before he had time to think about it, Thor heard Gorsa ask him.
"Tell me what happened to you when you went to Ralph Manor."
He pondered for a moment, then sorted out his language.
"When I entered Ralph Manor, I met a strange person. He has the terrifying ability to control people's consciousness or memory......"
In a few words, Saul told him all that had happened to him at the manor. Highlights Victor's abilities and performance. As for doing the antidote in the basement, there is no emphasis on the difficulty and the help of the Morton gang.
Sure enough, after listening to Thor's story, Gorsa was also the first to mention Victor's anomaly.
"You say he plays the harp?" Gorsa stretched out his pink fingers and tapped his temples lightly, "What kind of harp is it?" ”
Thor was stunned, this stopped him.
After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't remember the appearance of the other party's harp.
"Maybe he's not playing the harp." Gorsa's voice was rarely a little serious, "Victor...... Always mentioning 'fate' in his mouth, speaking in a strange way, killing people but not like to do it himself...... I think I know who this person is. ”
Hey? The tower owner actually knew him?
"His name is Kismet, and he's not native to the Western Continent. In my hometown, many people have seen this wizard. Oh, there was a rumor at the time that wherever he existed, there would always be catastrophic mass deaths. That's why some people call him the Messenger of Death. ”
"Death Courier!" This time, Thor was really suppressed.
Victor, no, Kismet's name makes him can't help but associate himself with the Death Wizard Diary.
What exactly did Kismet want to do by secretly going to Ralph Manor to hide his identity? Is the golden page that saved him from the soul storm also related to Kismet's arrangement?
Thor suddenly clenched his fingers, and the joints couldn't help but tremble, making a slight "gurgling" sound.
At this time, Gorsa did not speak, and the impact was very obvious.
"Scared?" Gorsa suddenly chuckled softly.
But Thor took a deep breath and slowly calmed down again.
"Yes." He did not deny the intense fear he had just generated.
It was a strong uneasiness caused by the enemy's unknown strength and unknown purpose, and it was also a concern about whether Victor was related to the sudden appearance of the golden pages.
A second-level apprentice, Sid, plots a diary, and Thor can also find a helper to solve the other party. But even a second-order wizard knows about the existence of the diary......
Thor doesn't know if he can keep the diary's secret, or if the other party will be able to find out where the diary is through clues.

And now that the golden pages seemed to have run into the diary, Thor didn't dare to check it immediately because there was always a second-order wizard by his side.
Anxiety also made his heart restless.
"You don't have to worry too much. I'll send someone to investigate this matter, and during this time, you will stay in the Wizard Tower and don't take on other missions. ”
"Yes." Thor nodded hurriedly, and then said with some hesitation, "Tower Master...... Second-Order Sorcerer...... How powerful is it? ”
Thor asked cautiously, not knowing if the tower master would shy away from the question, or if he would think that Thor was not yet ready to ask the question.
Looking at the nervous apprentice, Gorsa chuckled.
He snapped his fingers, and suddenly there was a single sofa behind them.
It looks soft and can almost sink a person in.
"Since you want to discuss this, I suggest you sit down and listen." With that, Gorsa sat down.
It's just that his movements look stiff, and his hands and feet are rigidly resting there, not at all like enjoying the comfort of the sofa.
Thor held on to the armrests of the sofa and sat down slowly, sinking into the sofa in an instant, feeling comfortable that he would never want to stand up again.
"The padding of this sofa has something to stabilize the mental power. I can leave one for you, and if you feel like you're going crazy one day, you can sit back and think about life. Gorsa's voice was lit with a light smile, and he said something creepy casually.
“…… Good. ”
Thor followed the tower master's movements, resting his hands on the armrests of the couch and resting his legs on the footpads below as much as possible.
It's just that in the face of Gorsa, he can't be so relaxed after all.
Suddenly, he felt as if he was lying not in a soft couch, but in a coffin lined with layers of lining.
"It seems that you are ready, so I will give you a brief description of the classification of the wizarding world."
Gorsa's voice became calm and soothing, like a lullaby.
"I didn't tell you this before, because I didn't want you to imagine high-level abilities when your strength was low. It's easy for you to go astray and not feel your true improvement. ”
"However, since the people you are in constant contact with are not wizards of your level, I will give you a brief introduction. In case you encounter a strong enemy, you can't even deal with it in advance. ”
"Ahead of time?" Thor repeated.
He looked at the tower master opposite, unable to imagine that even if he knew how powerful the other party was, what way could he deal with it?
Gorsa slowly raised a finger and shook it gently.
"Naturally, it's to see if you can ask for help, run away, or fight to the death. Or you can also leave yourself a quick death before the death, preferably the kind that even the soul is destroyed. ”
Thor closed his lips.
He hadn't thought about preparing a happy death for himself like a dead soldier.
"Don't feel embarrassed or frustrated. I also prepared a way out for myself, and I didn't want to die and work as a coolie for others. ”
Even the tower master has prepared a means of self-destruction!
Could it be that the more powerful a wizard is, the more afraid of death?
But when you say this, the tower master, you are facing the corpses in the warehouse, is it really not weak?
Thor stole a glance at the diary on his left shoulder, quickly moving his gaze to the other side.
He thought of Morton, who had been tortured in the soul storm and his consciousness had become crippled, and he also thought of the Bills who had to work for him after death.
"Maybe I can talk to the journalist brother and let him put my consciousness into the diary if I die. In addition to being aware of the lake and becoming ignorant, it is quite comfortable to dissipate a little. ”
"Wait, Mohu Consciousness?" A fragment flashed through Thor's mind, and suddenly linked the abilities of the journal to Victor's methods.
He gritted his teeth slowly, until there was a sour pain and a surging smell of iron in his gums.
Is it a coincidence?
I always feel that Victor's abilities are similar to Diary in some ways.
So, is there a deeper connection between the two?
