Chapter 37: The Dark Blade and the Eye of the Abyss

For some time afterward, Thor was involved in several more sweeper missions.

Each quest requires at least three wizards. Although the Baidong Academy occupies a large area and has a large population, it has super combat power and is still a small number of wizards who like to face evil spirits.

Most people here are more accustomed to doing research in the lab, so after a few missions, Sol starts to have repetitive faces around him.

During this time, Julie came to see Thor several times, but he turned her away.

It's not that Thor really resists developing deeper relationships with other female wizards. It's just that in the face of this kind of wizard who can arouse people's emotions, he still decided that it was better to stay away.

When Thor wasn't on the mission, he was huddled in the top floor of his newly rented apartment for experiments.

Because the frequency of evil spirits in Archaeological City is obviously abnormal, Sol believes that it is influenced by some factors.

So, he began to try to find an opportunity for his soul to become an evil spirit. He didn't study this to help the city solve its fundamental problems, but to use it to carry out an experiment he had been planning for a long timeβ€”soul arming.

The two anomalous spirits that Thor caught, John and his girlfriend are both experimental materials and test subjects.

John, in particular, is the most suitable to observe the process of evolving into evil spirits between evil spirits and evil spirits, which is a very rare opportunity for experimentation.

Once he understands the cause of the formation of evil spirits, or at least what factors are most likely to cause spirit contamination and confusion, he can begin to transform the four consciousness bodies in the diary.

Now even the strongest Morton is lacking in combat effectiveness. They can't perform large-scale sorcery, and the little magic inside the container can't sustain them for long fights.

It's enough if it's usual, but Thor is about to leave for the Borderlands. He must do everything he can to improve his combat effectiveness.

At the same time, Thor was deliberately studying the knowledge that second-order wizard Jassim had left him before he died.

The little black bug hiding in the depths of his spiritual body has been suppressed by the diary and the platform of consciousness. It wasn't until Thor took the initiative to explore that he discovered the secrets inside.

After a few days of research, it was discovered that this bug was a rather special kind of soul fragment. By dividing one's own soul, allowing it to carry a piece of consciousness into the spirit of others.

In this way, the person being passed on can directly learn something or know something.

But when Thor figured out how it worked, he just sneered and didn't appreciate Jassim's idea.

Without him, this kind of witchcraft has great hidden dangers and deep dangers.

When Jassim passed on this knowledge to Saul, he himself lost his impression of this knowledge. Although he can regain this knowledge through acquired learning. But if he wasn't reminded in time, he would have forgotten the experience forever.

Jassim had already decided to die at that time, so naturally he had no worries about this.

But this witchcraft is not a small hidden danger to Thor.

While Thor can learn directly from what Jassim has taught him through this soul fragment, he must also absorb the other ideas that Jassim has taught him.

In other words, once Jassim mixes a little bit of his own three views, beliefs, and obsessions with this consciousness, Thor is likely to become a person like him.

This is a subtle influence that may not be strong at first, or even really affect the choices of the recipients.

But after a long time, it will take root and sprout like a seed, changing the mind of the inheritor little by little, if it is not discovered and removed in time, the inheritor's personality may change drastically, and a bully who originally killed people and set fires may become a great good person who can't help but help when he sees a beggar.

When Jassim calmly died, Thor knew that this man must be someone with strong beliefs.

When people like this pass on knowledge, can they resist not passing on a little bit of their own ideas?

Thinking of this, Thor did not intend to accept this knowledge directly. But that doesn't mean he just gave up on Jassim's legacy.

With a diary, he chose another way to filter this piece of soul.

He directly integrated this inheritance into the black page of Gudo!

Gu Duo, who was originally a little weak, suddenly became three points stronger after fusing this soul fragment.

Subsequently, under the constraints of Thor's orders and journaling, Gudo directly recounted the knowledge he had obtained to Thor in its entirety.

As Thor expected, Jassim's legacy was none other than his powerful black blade, the Dark Blade.

It is a powerful sorcery that can attack both spirits and flesh at the same time. It can also split into hundreds of pieces and attack multiple enemies at the same time.

Of course, the attack power of the split fragment is not as powerful as the full Dark Spirit Blade. But as a top-level second-order wizard, one fragment can kill a third-order apprentice, and a few fragments combined can kill a first-order wizard with ordinary ability.

This is a fairly powerful dark attribute sorcery, perfect for Thor who doesn't have destructive attack sorcery!

However, just as Thor happily began to transcribe the wizarding rune structure of the Dark Blade, Gudo, who had absorbed Jassim's inheritance, suddenly began to speak to himself, completely ignoring the consumption of soul energy.

[Ah, I see, I finally understand why the tribunal sent someone to hunt us down. 】

[Consume so much manpower and material resources, just to chase a few of our first-level wizards......]

[Alas, maybe I would have known earlier, and I would have gone back early.] 】

[No, I might as well be so scared that I'm going crazy.] 】

[I really admire Jassim, knowing that all this can calmly hunt us down.] 】

[Maybe that's the reason why he can become a top second-order.] 】

[Without such persistent belief, how can it be possible to break through the barrier between the first and second levels? 】

Seeing this, Thor also completed the transcription of the entire complex sorcery rune structure.

Wrote more than two dozen pages of parchment.

If you add the subsequent dismantling analysis and personal perceptions, it is enough to form a complete witchcraft book.

But Thor didn't continue, he looked at Gudo's self-talk with some strange feeling.

"What else is hidden in Jassim's knowledge?"

[He sent a secret about the establishment of the tribunal.] 】

"What is it? I think you seem to have a deep understanding. ”

[It is the secret of the establishment of the adjudication tribunal.] 】

Thor raised his eyebrows, the consciousness in the diary, dodging his question in this way for the first time.

Is it because the soul fragments injected by Jassim do affect consciousness itself? Or is the self-consciousness of consciousness resisting the control of the diary?

Either way, Thor had to figure this out.

"I command you to tell the contents of the secret you have been given."

[I...... I ......]

Gudo's white handwriting began to grow messy.

It was clear that he was struggling to resist Thor's orders.

Cracks began to appear on the black pages.

This is also a phenomenon that has never been seen before!

But in the end, it was the diary that succeeded, and Gudo's handwriting was like a person being held in the palm of his hand to write, and in the midst of the struggle, many characters would suddenly draw a long tail.

[The Tribunal was established because the Eye of the Abyss is expanding!] In order to stop the expansion, they-]

However, Gudo's handwriting came to an abrupt end as the entire page shattered with a "thud".

Thor watched in amazement as the pages of the book turned into black powder, absorbed little by little by the strange starry sky inside the consciousness.

And he was not able to complete the secret of the tribunal after all.

For the first time, the journal failed to contain the consciousness contained in the black pages.

At the same time, it also made Saul understand the power of the tribunal.

"Eyes of the Abyss......" Thor whispered silently.

He remembered the huge depression on the far side of the planet.

The depression seemed to have penetrated deep into the center of the earth, and Thor didn't know anything else that could match the adjective Eye of the Abyss.

"Eye of the Abyss...... Expanding? ”
