Chapter 231: Asking for Answers

Thor only felt that as soon as he finished asking, Pei'er's face on the other side suddenly changed.

Turned pale, panicked, and even staggered back two steps when Thor tried to comfort her.

Lips trembled all the time.

The breeze was like a knife, leaving cracks in Thor's cheeks and arms.

It's not like Pell is attacking Thor.

This is a manifestation of her magic out of control in fear!

A layer of magical armor suddenly appeared on Thor's body, and instead of backing down, he continued to step forward, slowly trying to hold her arm against the blade-like wind around Peel.

Although he didn't know why Pell suddenly acted so frightened.

But he knew that now was definitely not the time to care about this, and Peel's magic suddenly went out of control, which was a precursor to being polluted.

However, just as Thor's hand was about to take Pelle's arm, there was a sudden roar in the distance, as if the world had been distorted.

A shock wave visible to the naked eye caused the entire island in the middle of the lake to tremble.

Thor, though not unsteady on his feet at the slightest tremor, was briefly drawn by the loud noise and momentum.

"What's that?"

Thor turned around again, trying to appease Pell before going over to have a look, only to find that Pell didn't pay attention to the movement in the distance at all, but took advantage of Saul's distraction to fly directly away from the Rhine Lake and run in the direction of the cliff.

"She's scared of me."

If Thor didn't understand what Pell was afraid of by now, he would have been a wizard for so many years.

It's just that he still has some doubts, why did Pell become afraid of him after mentioning the sound of the sky?

The ice of the Rhine Lake crackled and mushroom trees burst with snow-white spores.

The tourmaline-colored sky darkened for a short time.

The damp smell of the mountain rain made the breath stagnant.

At such a moment of shock, Thor still looked up, only looking at the sky fixedly.

"The sound of the sky? What is in heaven? ”

"Stars?"

In the next second, Thor suddenly lowered his head and turned to the place where the shock came from, his eyes sharp.

"Again—the old manor!"

……

Half an hour before the shock occurred.

Luke walked slowly to the gates of the old manor.

He was followed by a first-order wizard.

But it's not the one Thor saw half a year ago.

The original one, which is already rotten.

Although the resurrection sorcery that had allowed him to show off in front of everyone didn't last long, it already made him think that he was not much worse than Gorsa in the second-order period.

Now he just lacks a chance to advance to the third rank.

As long as he can be promoted to the third rank, he will also have a chance to catch up with Gorsa completely in the future.

Today, instead of taking the shuttle, he came to the Old Manor in a more covert way, just to seize the opportunity to advance to the third order.

Luke paced to the gate of the manor, and with a wave of his hand, a black rotting arm emerged from the ground, following Luke's movements, and tapped twice on the door.

Nothing unusual happened to the once dangerous old manor.

"It looks like the potential here has been tapped. I really don't understand, what Miss Lucy has been living in this place for? ”

If it weren't for the need for advancement, Luke would have preferred to stay in the Stargate Council.

There is a greater pool of knowledge and witchcraft resources.

Of course, the competition is also fiercer.

After a while, Luke heard footsteps.

He raised his hand and asked the first-order wizard behind him to come over.

This first-order wizard had just been with Luke for a short time, and he was still shivering with nervousness when he approached Luke.

Luke reached out and wiped his follower's face, and the other's mouth was gone.

Luke touched the lower half of his face with his hand again, and the mouth of the attendant appeared on Luke's face.

It's just that the corners of the mouth that were originally turned down are rising high at this time.

It's like you've met something particularly gratifying.

No sooner had he installed the mouth than the door to the old manor was opened.

Expressionless, but rarely dressed in a navy blue wizard's robe, Lucy appeared at the door.

"Good afternoon, Miss Lucy." Luke greeted Lucy with a simple salute and a smile on his face.

"You've completed the Frozen Circle?" Surprise flashed in Lucy's eyes when she saw that it was Luke, but she quickly suppressed her emotions.

Luke said calmly: "Of course not, it was a magic circle designed by a fourth-order wizard himself, and I am not so arrogant." ”

"And what are you doing here?"

"Miss Lucy, of course, tell me what to do with this ice lock circle? You, as the child of the questioner, should know what the correct answer is, right? ”

Lucy gasped, she wouldn't have been as surprised as she was if Luke had told her that she had completed the design of the circle.

However, she still maintained the elegant character of the eldest lady of the Star Gate, "I don't have an answer here. I also hope that you will not try to get answers from me. Great-grandfather came up with this question, maybe there is an answer, maybe not. But his original purpose was to get a better solution from your group of excellent second-order wizards. ”

Luke spread his hands very sloppily, "But Miss Lucy, I prefer to repair it after destroying it, and I really don't feel the way it is frozen. How can you expect me to do Master Alik's exercises without any interest? ”

Lucy was really angry this time, and she had to clench her fists and tremble slightly so that she wouldn't cast a spell directly on Luke.

"You are the person chosen by your great-grandfather, and if you do this, you will lose your great-grandfather's face."

Luke stepped forward and walked down the steps in front of the porch, looking up at Lucy, who was not very tall, but full of imposing energy.

"I know. So I'm coming here in private, you just need to tell me the answer, and when I am promoted to the third rank, I will naturally have a lot of time to help the speaker design the new Sealing Eye of the Wind Circle. Anyway, you also said that you can ask outsiders for help. ”

"Then isn't it normal for me to ask for help from the questioner?"

Lucy's chest couldn't help but rise and fall violently, and a pair of beautiful eyes narrowed.

Just as Luke raised his hands to his ears and pressed down twice, trying to keep Lucy from being so excited, he suddenly heard Lucy whisper.

"The wrath of thunder, which shakes the seas, the sword of law, cuts off evil. I, Lucy King, beg the favor of you, Lord of Thunder, Ackley, to send down your mighty power to drive out the rebellion before me with lightning! ”

Luke was stunned, and was about to open his mouth to say something, when he saw Lucy's hands clasped together, and a one-meter-long lightning-shaped spear suddenly grew between his palms.

Lucy's eyes were cold, and she didn't give Luke any more chance to speak, and with all her strength, she threw the lightning spear in her hand at Luke.

Luke seemed to be frightened and watched as the spear descended and slammed through his skull!

"You don't deserve ...... Become a candidate! ”

Lucy gritted her teeth and said this.

Then it seemed that the force was too strong, and the whole person began to tremble involuntarily.

Her gaze slowly shifted to her own hand, as if she couldn't believe that she had just killed the candidate chosen by her great-grandfather in a fit of rage.

Before Lucy could break free from her confusion, she suddenly heard Luke's unscrupulous voice again.

"The eldest lady is really angry. It seems that the Speaker Lord's memory protection measures have protected you too naïvely. ”
