Useful people can also have the opportunity to be locked up.

Useless people can only become dismembered material.

"What kind of person is useful to you?" Thor looked directly at the old witch and asked calmly.

"Heh, it's pretty smart to look at." The old witch withdrew her hand, "I want to make a perfect body." It has to have the beauty of elves, the toughness of giants, the strength of dwarves, the adaptability of barbarians, and of course, most importantly, the adaptability of genius elemental magic. ”

The old witch looked at Thor as if she were looking at the meat on a board, carefully weighing which piece was fat and which was thin.

"I'm going to succeed soon. When the time comes, I will be the most gifted wizard. What dream makers, firefly masters, and wind demons are just my foils. ”

Claude had told Thor that there were currently no fourth-order wizards in the Borderlands. The three third-order wizards who are recognized as the strongest are Clarke, the dream maker, Herbert, the firefly master, and the wind demon Pelle.

Thor suddenly said, "I understand. You need an assistant who can help with research experiments. ”

The old witch did not deny it.

Thor smiled humbly, "It just so happens that I'm better at studying the formula for transforming the witch body. ”

"Whew......h

"A first-order wizard dares to say that he is good at it, are the young people nowadays so arrogant? Do you think that the transformation formula I need is like a wizard's apprentice, adding an eye and a blood? ”

"It's not." Speaking always has to be evidence, Sol raised his hand, and his fingertips gradually became transparent, "I have also undergone two witch body transformations, so I naturally understand that transformation is not just as simple as changing some body tissues for myself. ”

The old witch's eyes were fixed on Thor's fingers, watching his skin and the muscles, blood vessels and other tissues underneath turn a transparent gray-white little by little, revealing the white bone in the center.

"Transformation involves multiple tissues of the human body, and there are many follow-up issues that need to be considered, such as allergies, immunity, self-repair, and the fluency of magical mental power. What sometimes appears to be a conflict between witchcraft materials may be the essence of the tiniest body tissue that cannot survive in a modified environment. ”

Listening to Thor, watching the change of his fingers, the old witch's original disdain faded, and her eyes narrowed slightly. She pursed her lips, but the corners of her blood-red mouth slowly rose.

"It's kind of interesting. I'm asking you a question, if your answer satisfies me, at least until I finish my modification experiments, you won't have to die. ”

"Please."

"How can we stop aging? How to extend the lifespan of tiny tissues in the body? ”

Thor lowered his eyes, forcing himself not to look at the old witch's wrinkled face.

After thinking for a moment, he gave the answer, "The aging of the surface of the body is due to the contraction of tiny tissues, not as full as it was when it was reborn. Intrinsic aging is a slowing down in the regeneration of microscopic tissues. Therefore, we can start from two aspects, one is to supplement, and the other is to accelerate the speed of microtissue division. ”

Thor deliberately left a hidden danger here.

It's just a test, and he doesn't need to be so complete. And to leave a hidden danger for the old witch may be to leave a way for himself to live.

The old witch suddenly reached into the cage and grabbed Thor's arm, her fingertips slowly contracting, her sharp nails leaving several blood marks on Thor's translucent skin.

Red blood flowed from the wound, interspersed with inconspicuous gray particles.

The old witch withdrew her hand and put her fingertips in her mouth and licked them in turn, leaving a few blush on the tip of her dark purple tongue.

"Hehehe...... Hahaha......" She shook her shoulders and laughed, trembling with the folds on her face.

After laughing for a minute, the old witch suddenly turned her head to the person in a wooden cage next to Thor and said, "Oqili, I have found someone who can replace you, you have to be careful~"

Thor followed suit.

On his left-hand side, in the same cage four or five meters apart, a man lay with his back to them.

Because of the limited size of the cage, the man had to fold his head and knees in front of his chest when he lay down.

Listening to the old witch's words, the man just moved his ass and did not respond.

The old witch was not angry, and grabbed the wooden fence of the cage and stood up little by little.

"Alright, I'm going to see my little darling. I'll see you tomorrow. In this time, you can think about my question. I don't want a few words of truth that seem to be true. ”

The old witch turned and walked towards the gate.

Thor approached the railing, "Old witch, my coachman......"

"At the moment, he is actually more useful than you. Think about how to survive first. ”

The old witch pushed the door and went out.

Thor noticed that the room outside the door was also dim.

Thor seemed to be the only one in the room who was still awake now. The other cage figures were either sitting curled up or curled up.

Looks like it's been locked up for a long time.

There should be a confinering sorcery circle on the cage, and when sitting here, Thor's magic and mental power fluctuations are forcefully suppressed within an extremely low value range.

With no way to open the cage for a moment, Thor looked around the room instead.

The room was covered with rough stone bricks from top to bottom, left and right. The shape of the whole house is very irregular, and the ground is a polygon.

The lighting in the room was a plant with oval buds, and it looked wilted to death.

Surrounded by glowing plants, several wooden cages were fixed far or near.

The one where Thor was located was the farthest away, with a wall behind it.

If you look closely, in addition to Thor, there are five people in the cage.

Three of them were of a special size.

Facing Thor's cage, sat a giant.

Thor's cage is a little more than a meter high, while the opponent's cage is close to two meters. But even then, the giant sat down with his scalp on top of the cage as he curled up.

It looks unusually uncomfortable.

Next to the giant is another short man with a huge contrast, roughly estimated, probably less than a meter tall.

Then, on Thor's left-hand side against the wall, there was a man lying on the ground with his legs curled up against the wall.

Thor saw the black lines on his body and judged that the other party should be a barbarian, and it was a spell-casting character like a barbarian priest.

To Thor's left is the man known as Ochili. Oqili's left hand side is also supposed to be a full-fledged wizard, but he looks weak.

Maybe it's because you feel Thor's scrutiny, or maybe it's because the old witch is gone. Oqili, who had just curled up on the ground, got up a little and changed to a sitting position.

He didn't look young anymore, his temples were gray, and there were many large spots on his skin.

"I hope you're really good at witch body transformation." Oqili lowered his head and looked at his toes, "The previous two people who lied that they were good at witchcraft transformation have now become witchcraft materials that can't move or speak. ”

It's good to have someone who is willing to communicate.

Thor relied on his stature not to be tall, and turned nimbly around in the cage, "Did the old witch capture us just to help her carry out the witch body transformation experiment?" ”

"Of course not." Olchili still didn't look at Thor, and said listlessly, "Outsider, there are many sorcery materials in the Borderlands that are not found elsewhere, but here, wizards are also a material. ”
