Chapter 119: Reading Candles

The settlement wasn't huge, and Thor hadn't walked a few steps before he saw the people he had seen before entering.

They were arranged into an underground passage, the chains under their feet had been unfastened, but their eyes were still blindfolded.

This time he saw that there was also a hole in the sole of the last man's foot.

The wound had healed for a long time, but there was still a dark red touch on the soles of the feet, as if it had bled not long ago.

Thor watched as the men disappeared into the tunnel, without looking sideways, "What are these people doing?" Why did you come back from outside covered in mud? ”

Kismet still didn't answer positively, just said, "It's normal here." ”

He turned to Saul and asked, "You...... Is it for the rumors of quicksand termites? ”

Hearing Kismet ask so lightly, Thor's heart sank.

Do many people know about quicksand termites?

So how could he secretly move the nest back in its entirety?

Wait, this came out of Kismet's mouth......

Thor looked up suddenly, and sure enough, he saw Kismet's eyes narrowing with laughter, "It's actually a hoax. What appeared in the survivor forest was not quicksand termites, but archback termites that looked very similar, but had completely different abilities. ”

"Scam...... Deception, Bureau? Thor stared at Kismet.

The smile on Kismet's face faded away, pointing to his nose and puffing out his face, "...... Could it be that if it's a scam, I must have done it? ”

Thinking that he had helped him in before, Thor finally withdrew his suspicious gaze.

But he wanted to nod his head inwardly.

Kismet tugged at Thor, "What's the point of standing here, there are no quicksand termites here, but there are a lot of other good things." ”

Other goodies?

Thor thought for a moment and didn't leave directly.

To enter this settlement, you need to have an introducer, and I think there should be relatively rare and valuable witchcraft materials inside.

This is something that is difficult for a merchant to help him collect.

It would also be nice to be able to establish a purchase channel here. It's a little farther away.

Thor followed Kismet through a narrow path.

There are a lot of ordinary people here, but most of them are like vegetables and emaciated.

Occasionally, you can see wizard apprentices, and a small number of formal wizards, but they all come and go.

Thor looked around and noticed that many wizards and apprentices were following them in the same direction.

It's just that because of the faster pace, they are all ahead of them.

In this way, following the intermittent flow of people, Thor followed Kismet to a bungalow that looked nothing special on the outside.

It was only after entering that Thor discovered that the house was actually extending diagonally downward.

Upon entering, Kismet showed something as well, apparently requiring a pass to enter the place.

The two of them walked down dozens of steps to the hall covered by layers of curtains.

There were a lot of people looming behind the curtains.

As soon as a man crossed them and hurriedly lifted the curtain and entered, Thor immediately felt a wave of heat emerge from the crack that had been lifted.

Like a tongue of fire in a furnace, it suddenly stretched out and burned his cheek.

"It's weird, and there's something familiar about it."

Kismet thought for a moment, "You may be familiar with the smell, but it's not the same thing at all. ”

With that, Kismet went in first.

Thor looked at the red and purple curtains in front of him, and felt that this was not like a place to exchange witchcraft materials.

"Isn't this the ......" Thor suddenly thought of a place, he looked at the diary, and there was no warning, and finally opened the curtain and walked in.

As soon as he entered, Thor saw a large patch of white flesh.

There are wizards in this, there are ordinary people.

And ordinary people, both men and women, are draped in a thin layer of light veil. As you walk, the light yarn sometimes lifts up, turning the obscurity into an unobstructed view.

They are all good-looking and well-proportioned. has an appearance that ordinary people envy when they see it.

Kismet actually brought him here? And say it's a good place?

Well, it's not a bad place though.

But shouldn't he be so serious?

At this time, a beautiful girl dressed in a white light veil stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Two adults, please, may I rest in the hall or go to the box?" ”

Thor looked at the beauty in front of him from head to foot, and then from foot to head.

Kismet didn't speak next to him.

Thor looked back at him, "It's all witchcraft?" ”

"Yes, they are all close to life, and they are used by apprentices to practice and play."

Hearing Kismet's words, the girl looked a little uneasy, but she still had a perfectly angled smile on her face.

It was as if her eyes and mouth didn't belong to the same person at this point.

Thor had just taken a closer look and had already determined that the other party was a woman with a biological age of less than thirty, but a life expectancy of less than two years.

Probably except for those trembling eyes, the skin of her body has been transformed.

Thor wasn't in the mood for a while, and now he wasn't in the mood.

"Do you sell anything else here?"

The girl in white yarn hurriedly replied, "The first time my lord came, the general court only sells one thing. ”

She removed a small cylinder from the belt behind her back. Using his middle finger and thumb, he gently pinched the lid on the cylinder, then raised his arm to show Thor's contents.

"That's the only cargo we have, Reading Candles."

Thor didn't immediately take the candle from the other's hand, but scanned the hall again.

Only then did he realize that there was such an ordinary-looking candle in front of the wizards and wizard apprentices in the entire hall.

Even if these people hold a beauty in their arms, their minds are not on the love of men and women. They just stared blankly at the candle in front of them, taking deep breaths from time to time.

I was fascinated.

In such a crowded place, these wizards seem to be completely unguarded and allow themselves to enter a state of confusion.

Something is not right!

Thor asked Kismet with a conquest, "Is that the essence of the hoax you are talking about?" ”

With a smile in his eyes, Kismet replied with a teleportation, "Clever." They keep hunchback termites in the survivor grove. This termite secretes a special form of formic acid when it bites, which paralyzes the bite, but the mind is particularly clear. They will clearly feel themselves being dismembered little by little, and then give it to the queen in the deepest part of the nest to eat. ”

"The Great Witch here has found a way to detoxify the formic acid, dilute it, and finally solidify it, and you can get the Reading Candle. Wizards and apprentices can make their brains extremely excited by absorbing candle incense. At this time, whether it is learning new witchcraft or deciphering obscure runes, it will be much easier than before. It can also help you briefly enhance the effects of meditation. ”

Kismet swept the field with his chin, "So a lot of them here are the kind of wizards and apprentices who are stuck at a certain stage and can't be promoted. They regard the Ordinary Court as their last hope for promotion. ”

"Of course," he shrugged again, "it's a little more expensive." ”

Thank you for the tips, and thank you for the monthly pass!!
