The sudden sound of a tidal surge in the interior of a town in an arid area, coupled with the eerie neat graves outside the town, made Thor frown for a moment, and his mind was full of thoughts.

"This town is being targeted...... Is the secret behind the grinding sound fruit so complicated? ”

When it comes to the diary, Thor can't give up easily.

After thinking about it for a moment, he decided to venture into the town.

However, when he put his hand on the gate again, the diary, which had been quiet for a long time, suddenly floated out of his left shoulder.

[September 1, 316 in the New Moon calendar,

A neatly arranged grave, like a neatly written invitation?

You're invited to a dying-time feast in an uninhabited town,

However, you strayed into the background,

Having seen the bloody truth,

You are powerless to escape, and you are overwhelmed by the tide of history and the future.

The more bright red the curtain, the more it is cast by the blood of the people on the stage,

Right now

You've had the privilege of giving your whole life to it. 】

It turned out to be a death warning?

Thor quickly withdrew his palm.

"What the hell is going on in Mill Sail? Even entering will trigger a death warning? ”

"If I go in and I'm going to die, then why is the old madman still alive?"

"Was that guy really an old madman?"

Thor closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the fear and hesitation in his eyes disappeared.

"Haven't I seen any more death warnings? Now the way to find a way is to avoid death. Thor calmed down and re-examined the words in his diary.

Not only does the diary give a warning of death, but it sometimes gives you some solutions between the lines.

Now all Thor has to do is try to find the key points in these words that could lead to his death, so that he can take measures to avoid it.

"A dying feast? Does it mean to see the picture of everyone before they die, or is there someone who is about to die? ”

"Going behind the scenes, does it mean that I discovered the truth of the play, so revealing the truth here would lead to death? So if I just look for the Grinding Sound Fruit and don't explore the reasons behind it, will I be able to escape from the Ascension? ”

With that in mind, Thor stepped forward again.

It's a pity that the resurfaced content of the diary still didn't change the outcome of his death.

"Isn't that the crux of the matter?" Thor was not discouraged, he had long been accustomed to countless attempts and deductions.

Soon he noticed another word.

"Weak, does the diary mean that I need to find a helper?"

Thor looked back and saw that the coachman was standing on top of the ridge, looking over him.

Seeing Thor turn around, he quickly stretched his neck, as if waiting for him to be named.

"Although the mushroom on the driver's head is a little weird, its power is too weak, and it can only bully ordinary people." Without a journal prompt, Thor ruled out this option.

"Could it be that the diary wants me to go back and pull people? But who to pull? I don't feel at ease with anyone but Byron and Klee, but I'm worried about getting them into big trouble with them. ”

Senior Byron is trying to figure out how to promote him to a full-fledged wizard, and the evil spirits he has refined are enough for him to drink a pot.

Klee has just contracted a metal toxin, and I don't know if it's completely resolved.

Calling the two of them up, not to mention whether they can help, may even kill them.

Thor immediately gave up on the idea of pulling them both along.

You can't call these two people, you have to find someone else, preferably a third-level apprentice.

Strong, but not so strong that it completely overwhelms Thor.

Thor suddenly remembered the nearest candidate to him, Mochimochi, who lived in Black Castle.

Thor walked over to the gate of Millsail again, thinking, "I'll go in with Mokimochi." ”

This time the journal did not give another hint.

"Is it because of Mokimochi's special abilities, or because he's a third-level apprentice?"

Thor returned to the carriage and told the coachman to walk around the town to another part of the town.

It's closer to the desert, not far from the fields where the fruit is grown.

However, when Thor arrived, he found that the wall that had surrounded the field had collapsed in half, and there were still many traces of smoke and fire on the wall.

"There is a fire here, could it be caused by the attack of the barbarians?"

"I remember that reinforcements had already arrived when I left, and it was impossible to let such an important field be destroyed!"

Thor walked over the ruins to the field.

"Shhhh

There seemed to be a fire in the field in front of me, and everything was charred and blackened.

In this charred black land, there are hundreds of graves neatly arranged.

The soil of these graves was also charred black, and there was no guessing that there were blood-stained clothes and several pieces of flesh belonging to different people.

There will definitely be no grinding fruit here.

Since these walls have not been repaired, it means that people did not find the surviving Mosheng fruit and seeds after the fire.

Otherwise, this place should be renovated in order to replant.

Thor took a deep breath, and this time he didn't hesitate, turned and left, and called the coachman to hurry to the Black Castle.

It normally takes a day to get to the Black Castle Forest, but this time Thor deliberately asked the coachman to speed up regardless of the consumption, and it only took half a day to reach the destination.

"Bang bang bang!"

Thor knocked on the door.

It took nearly 5 minutes before I heard footsteps approaching.

The door opened, and a slender mochimoki, dressed in a special black gown, emerged from the door.

"Oops, hey, it's you. Please come in. ”

When Mochimochi saw Thor, he immediately behaved enthusiastically and turned sideways to get out of the way.

Thor nodded and glanced back at the coachman.

When he had just walked the dark forest path again, the coachman behaved strangely.

Saul thought it was because of the psychological shadow caused by the coachman's almost being replaced by the mushroom man last time, but he saw a look of joy and nostalgia on the coachman's face.

This made Thor a little uneasy, leaving the coachman outside Castle Black.

"Can I go in with my driver?"

"It's not going to work, it's not going to work." Unexpectedly, Moki Mochi refused without hesitation, "It's not that I'm unreasonable, ordinary people can't enter Black Castle." ”

Although Mokimochi said it with a smile, from the resoluteness in the other party's voice, Thor knew that there was no room for this matter to turn around.

It seemed that the coachman would not be able to enter the Black Castle, and he looked back at the coachman, and was thinking about how to place him, when he saw the coachman say with a sincere face, "It's all right, my lord, I will wait for you outside." ”

"Okay, then you don't run around." Thor admonished.

Thor followed Mokimochi into the Black Castle, the slender gate closing silently.

The coachman's eyes suddenly rolled, and he said to himself: "I don't run around, I just go to see my old friend." ”

With that, he jumped into the depths of the woods.

Inside the Black Castle, Thor and Mokimoch stood in the long, narrow and ornate halls.

Perhaps because he had been promoted to the second level, this time Thor was no longer harassed by the hidden things in the Black Castle.

"I received the news that you are going to Mobei City, and I was wondering if you would come. But you've changed so much, it's the first time I've seen a living person who has undergone two witch body transformations in three years. Mokimochi looked very enthusiastic, and a pair of slender eyes widened, "Great, great, the little vines I raised have also grown, can you let your tentacles compete with them?" ”

It's a pity that Thor is not in the mood to compete with others now.

He said bluntly, "Mokimochi, I'm from Mill Sail Town. ”

Mokimochi's round eyes slowly narrowed into a slender slit, and he said meaningfully, "Oh, so you came to me for this." What do you think? Have you seen it? Not bad, not bad, right? ”

Saul frowned slightly, was Mokimochi showing off his murderous methods to him?

His mind flashed the appearance of Ada and Penny, and his heart tightened, "Then you...... Do you remember a blind little girl in it? There might be a boy ten years older than her next to her? ”

Mokimochi was stunned for a moment, and touched his awl-like chin, "I have killed many boys and girls, and I am blind...... It doesn't seem to be. ”

"That's ......"

When Mokimochi saw Thor's appearance, he knew that he was not used to this way of doing things, and said in his heart: "The little boy who has been in the wizard's tower for a long time is really soft-hearted. ”

"Are they your friends?"

“…… At last. ”

"No!" Mokimochi interrupted Thor, "They're not. Don't be friends with ordinary people, and don't be friends with wizards. The former doesn't know when they're going to die because of you, and the latter doesn't know when they're going to kill you. Neither of these deaths, you have no control. ”

"The wizard who chooses is the one who chooses a solitary path. You can have companions, you can have clans, you can have power, but only if they can help you grow. Other than that, it's all inconsequential people. ”

"You'll learn more later. If you're lucky enough to become an official wizard, there are more than a dozen ways you can extend your lifespan. And those ordinary people who have a hard time living to fifty are just wheat seedlings planted in the rice fields every season, and they provide you with supplies on time. Do you want to be grieved by the withering of a wheat seedling? ”

His big narrow hand rested on Thor's shoulder, and said with a serious and slight smile: "The people of Mofan Town are just a crooked wheat seedling, and it is not worth your trouble. Since they have sought the protection of the Wizard Tower, but they are secretly colluding with the barbarians, this kind of behavior is a naked betrayal, and the Wizard Tower will not be betrayed. If you don't teach them a lesson and show the majesty of the wizard's tower, won't there be more and more such things in the future? So what we have to do is to uproot the wheat seedlings that are already sick so as not to infect other wheat seedlings. ”

Thor knew that many wizards were extremely cold-blooded, often treating ordinary people as expensive materials for witchcraft.

There was no need for him to waste his tongue on this notion with Mochimochi.

However, the memory of wizards is very good, and since Mochimochi said that he had not seen a blind girl, he had not seen it.

It seems that Penny and the others left Millsail after the barbarian invasion.

Escaped.

As for the rest of the Sail Town, Thor didn't have that much to worry about.

It's just that Thor doesn't quite understand that relying on neatly arranged tombs and closed town gates can proclaim the majesty of the wizard's tower?

"So those graves outside the town, and the sound of the waves in the town, were they deliberately arranged by you?"

Although Mokimochi did not agree with it. But if the killer is Mokimochi, then he should also have a way to enter the town safely.

Thor now has to think about how to impress him to agree to take him into the town in search of the Grinding Fruit.

However, when Mokimochi heard Thor's words, his slender eyes slowly widened.

"What are you talking about? I don't seem to understand, I don't understand! Where are the graves? What graves? ”
