Chapter 149: The Short-lived Apprentice

"Came out intact?" A voice rang out behind Noah.

Noah's beating heart calmed down a little at this time.

He lay on the ground and turned his head to see Brown, the leader of his hunting party.

"Master Brown." Noah struggled to get himself on his feet and try to make a good impression in front of the wizard.

But stubbornness didn't bring him any good.

"Looks like you're in pretty good shape. He can stay awake when he encounters anomalies, and his adaptability to psychotropic drugs is also good. It's a pity, if it weren't for the fact that your spirit body had been destroyed by the previous drugs, there was hope that you would become a low-level wizard apprentice. ”

Noah's movements as he stood up were stunned by Wizard Brown's words, and he couldn't move for a long time.

"I, I can't be a wizard apprentice anymore?" Noah's bubble of hope bursts.

He suddenly remembered the mixed emotions in the other party's eyes when he asked Wizard Thor to become an apprentice.

"I see. It turned out that I had long lost the opportunity. ”

He felt weak.

All strength is drained with the dashing of hope.

Seeing Noah stunned in place, Brown's patience was exhausted, and he glanced at the mushroom forest in front of him and compared it with the map in his hand.

"Rhine in front of you. Since you're not injured in summoning the woodlands, it's time to go to the Rhine beforehand. ”

Noah's heart instantly cooled in half.

Their pathfinders all come in turns, and after one person has detected a dangerous place, the next person will be replaced. If the next person dies, let the next person go.

Because every time the detection is completed, the energy of the detector will be exhausted, and some people can't even stand up.

Noah didn't expect that he intended to be strong and perform, but he got such a result.

Seeing that Noah was slow to move, Brown raised his hand to him a little away.

"Ah!!h

In the next second, Noah squatted down with his head in his hands.

Pain comes and goes quickly.

As soon as Noah crouched down, the pain disappeared. It's as if everything just now was just an illusion.

But Dr. Brown's words made Noah realize the reality.

"Go quickly, or you'll be in pain for the rest of the night next time."

Noah didn't dare to delay any longer, and he didn't have the energy to be sad anymore, so he quickly got up and staggered towards the mushroom forest in front of him.

Looking at the mushroom forest, which became taller and taller as he got closer, Noah no longer knew what mood he was in.

This place is much spookier than the woods just now.

He had never seen such a tall mushroom, and so many.

"Why is this place called the Rhine? There is no lake here? Could it be that there is a swamp under the mushroom? Thinking about it made Noah gradually calm down.

Even though there was no possibility of becoming a wizard's apprentice, Noah didn't want to die outside.

He was going to try to find a way to survive in these dangerous places.

One last glance back at Wizard Brown, he saw that the others had also made a detour to the side, looking at him with a blank face.

Noah took a deep breath and stepped into the mushroom forest.

The mushroom forests are very dense, and Noah has to be careful not to touch them.

Although gray-white mushrooms are usually not poisonous, he tries his best to avoid touching them.

Strangely, these weird-looking big mushrooms haven't undergone any terrifying changes.

Noah was frightened, and around another large mushroom, suddenly opened up in front of him, and a frozen lake shrouded in white mist appeared.

"So here...... It's the Rhine. ”

In the center of the Rhine, stands a tall tower of pure white. At the top of the tower there is a strange round platform that is wider than the body of the tower.

Makes the whole tower look a little bit like a mushroom too.

At this moment, a person seemed to come out of the bottom of the tower in the distance. It's just that because of the distance and the hazy fog, Noah can't see the other party's appearance clearly.

However, Noah can't see through the fog, but Thor can.

At this time, he was carrying a pile of materials and was about to go out to find a hidden place to set up the magic circle. Unexpectedly, he was notified by Marsh that a group of people had come from outside the mushroom forest of the wizard tower.

One of the little guys in the group walked into the mushroom forest alone.

It doesn't look like someone came to steal mushrooms.

Thor was just going out to take a look, and he saw a familiar face.

"Is that him? How did he come to such a distant place? ”

Thor still has some impressions of the little boy, and he has a good impression.

Thinking that Marsh said that there was a group of people outside, but let him in alone, most of them were treated as experiments.

Thor snapped his fingers, summoned the demon wolf who was resting on the side, sat on the back seat, and directly commanded the demon wolf to run towards the boy.

When Noah saw the person on the other side approaching him, his first reaction was to run out.

However, as soon as he turned around, several living vines stretched out from under the earth, directly curling his hands and feet, lifting the man into the air.

Noah immediately wanted to struggle and scream, but he realized that his cry for help would not attract rescue from the outside hunting team, but might even anger the people on the other side, so he resisted his fear and did not shout.

But the mouth can be closed, but the body's reaction cannot be controlled.

All parts of his body that weren't bound by vines trembled.

His heart was beating so hard that it almost burst through his chest!

Until......

"See you again."

As the distance shortened, the person behind the fog gradually became clearer.

Noah's eyes widened, and his closed mouth opened unconsciously, "Wizard Thor? ”

"Algae, put the person down." Thor asked Algae's clone to put the boy down, "How did you come to the Rhine?" ”

Noah had now forgotten the words that Wizard Brown had taught them, and when he saw Thor, he told the truth.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Lord Wind Demon has organized a lot of hunting teams, but in fact, it is for ordinary people to test all the dangerous areas one by one? Thor touched his chin, "Why is that?" ”

Morton: [Sounds like they're doing a test, looking for something.] 】

Penny suddenly said to Saul, "Brother Saul, this kid is dying. ”

Thor was stunned, narrowed his eyes, and sure enough, he saw that the boy's body had run out of oil.

His spiritual body had already been matured, and now he didn't know what kind of medicine he had taken, and he was stimulated again.

And these detection instruments on his body should be the reason why he was forcibly activated by other wizards.

If Thor hadn't given him a potion to repair his spirit body in the survivor Gulin, he would have died of exhaustion after the outbreak of his spirit body.

But now, Noah doesn't have much time left.

A spirit body that is forcibly activated without the protection of reciprocal magic is like sticking your hand into corrosive acid without protective gloves. Soon all that will be left is bones.

At this point, the boy looked up at Thor's face, which seemed to have overlapped with a skull.

Thor sighed in his heart and didn't say anything, "Do you want to go to the island?" ”

Noah already knew that he couldn't become a wizard's apprentice, and despite his curiosity about Thor's tower, he restrained himself.

"No, my lord, I have to go back to the task. It's enough for me to go this distance anyway. ”

Noah didn't want to enter Thor's Wizard Tower with all these testing instruments on his body, in case Wizard Brown's testing equipment was harmful to the Wizard Tower.

Anyway, the distance from the center of the lake to him should be exactly within the test range of the instrument, and the instrument did not send an alarm.

"Don't waste your time, Lord Thor." Noah bowed respectfully to Thor, "I'll go back now." ”

After saying that, he carried a device on his back and strode out.

Thor just stood still, silently watching his back.

Perhaps knowing that this place was the territory of Wizard Thor, Noah no longer felt that it was terrifying when he walked through the mushroom forest again.

Even the big mushrooms with round heads and round brains are a little cute.

He trotted all the way out of the mushroom grove and saw Wizard Brown outside.

He slowed his pace, soothing his breathing and heartbeat from running.

"Master Brown, I've tested thisβ€”"

The sound stopped abruptly, and the pounding heartbeat felt like it had been paused.

Noah opened his mouth slightly and fell straight down.

"Bang!"

The dry, hard earth stirred up only a little bit of floating dust.

Wizard Brown stepped forward, neatly took off Noah's testing instrument, and didn't pay attention to him, but turned back to the others and said, "The instrument has no warning. Let's go to the next place. ”
