Chapter 20 Echoing the Inside and Out
"The Inverted Tree, Beth, and what he said about Char's sneak attack. I remember that by the time I left, Char had been controlled by the upside-down tree, but he still seemed to have a consciousness of his own. Could it be that his consciousness has influenced the inverted tree? ”
This Char wizard is really not simple, although he has serious paranoia of being killed, his strength is really unfathomable.
An upside-down tree, a second-order wizard, was unexpectedly harmed by him and lost control.
Of course, it's not certain whether things are as Jonah says.
It's not that Jonah lies, it's that everything he knows may also be inaccurate.
But now at least it was known that the state of the inverted tree was in a problem, and that the Baidong Academy was clearly planning something in an extreme way.
"Whoever is penetrated by the roots of a tree is imprisoned in a resin like beeswax. And what happened after that, and why did the whole city turn into ruins? Why do people in the outer city still live like they used to? Do they know what's going on in the inner city? ”
Jonah laughed, "I don't know the rest." I, I'm looking for ......."
He was suddenly a little confused, as if he couldn't figure out where he was and what he was doing.
"Brother Thor, he's waking up." Penny reminded Saul.
Saul knew that if Jonah realized that his true body had become a crippled body, he would immediately realize that it was a dream.
Thor immediately asked, "Since you saw the fate of those people, do you know what the dean will do next?" I heard you say that the dean complained that the cocoon was not enough, did he kill the rest of the people in the inner city? Where are Beth, the Dean, and those who have been cocooned now? ”
Thor's long list of questions made Jonah a little sluggish, and he looked at Thor in a daze.
Just when Thor thought his brain was full, Jonah suddenly grabbed Thor by the arm, almost breaking his arm with such force that it almost broke his arm.
"You can't find them. They are no longer in this world. ”
Thor let Jonah clutch his arm like a drowning man clutching at the only straw.
"That'...... Where are they? Thor asked softly.
"They're ...... You can't find it...... Hehehe......" Jonah suddenly laughed weirdly, "I remember, at the last moment when the tree disappeared, I sacrificed my limbs and some organs to successfully get out of the beeswax. I remember. ”
He slowly let go of Thor's arm, a smile on his face, "But I lost the most important thing. I've got to get it back. ”
The image around Thor began to blur, as if someone was adjusting the pixels of the world in his eyes.
The sense of squares is getting heavier and heavier.
The world is also becoming more and more false.
The dream began to crumble.
The building blocks that make up the dream are crumbling and pouring.
Peeling off along with the room, there was Jonah's intact and healthy skin.
When the flesh-colored and black bricks fell off Jonah's body, what was revealed inside was not the mutilated human body that Thor had seen in the outside world.
Rather, it is a figure made of ashes.
"It's time for us to go, Brother Thor." Penny's voice also became serious, "We must get out of here before we wake up, or the way out will become a labyrinth of yarn." ”
Although Thor still had some questions unanswered, he could only nod.
In the world of dreams, third-order wizards are unable to rely on the magic of the outside world.
Because there is only spiritual power here, not magic power.
Two silver wings suddenly emerged from behind Thor.
With a flap of wings, the whole world began to recede rapidly.
The ash man in front of him quickly moved away.
The world grew darker, and then brightened again.
It's just that there is darkness in the brightness.
Thor opened his eyes and saw Wizard Jonah curled up on the ground like a baby in front of him.
The head rests on the right side of the fingerless arm, and the thighs that have lost their calves curl in as far as they can.
Together, in a ball.
His face still has no facial features.
All Thor gave him were the eyes of a dream.
But on such a face that there was nothing, Thor saw a hint of serenity.
He's dead.
The moment he realized it.
Thor stepped forward slowly, raising his hand and gently patting Jonah on the back.
The man, who had been struggling for an unknown amount of time in the archaeological city of Sternay, collapsed like a mosquito coil ash scattered all over the ground.
It turned into a familiar gray powder, adding another cloud of dust to this messy room.
"Gee," Penny said calmly, not feeling sentimental about the others, "it seems that he didn't really survive the massacre." ”
Thor stood still for a moment, causing Penny and Herman to stop talking.
I don't know what Thor was thinking.
It was a moment later, as the whole inner city became darker, before Thor moved.
He exited the house and returned to the opposite room, and with a wave of his hand, the dust in the room was swept into the corner.
The whole room is not as new as it gets, but it is not so dusty.
Thor walked over to the dining table in the hall of the room, pulled out a chair and sat down.
A large quill appeared on the table in front of him, along with several sheets of unused parchment.
Thor picked up the exaggerated quill, shook it gently, and then wrote on the parchment.
"Klee, I need you to help me out there......"
……
The package on Klee's body shook suddenly, and she looked down and pulled out a piece of parchment with delicate lace from a delicate little leather bag and spread it out on her lap.
"Cut, don't take me in, and let me do so many things."
He complained in his mouth, but he had a smile on his face.
Although she and Thor have always been friends, she can't interfere with anything else.
The other party is progressing too fast, she can only look from the rear, and the little help given by Saul is a great benefit to her.
This made the self-proclaimed genius Kerry feel anxious.
Because of this, after she woke up under the collapsed wizard tower, she did not follow Byron's senior to find Thor.
With her strength, the past will only lag behind.
So when Grand Duke Kira came over and invited her to the royal capital, promising to help her become an official wizard as soon as possible, Klee agreed without hesitation.
And not exactly for her family.
Being able to help Thor today finally made her feel a little comforted.
She jumped down from the tree, and Ann and Agu came together.
By this time they had left their original town and were hiding in the woods outside.
"Is it news from the master?" Ann was curious, and her eyes kept glancing at the parchment in Klee's hand.
Agu on the side was very honest, not peeking at all, just looking at the huge quill in Klee's hand.
"Messenger pen?"
Klee grinned, "yes, after the Gorsa Wizard's Tower fell, Thor and I both took one. This pen can't be used at too far away, but Thor has strong mental strength and has been remodeled again, barely able to use it at this distance. ”
Ann was not interested in the interrogation pen, and she asked anxiously, "Is it the master who has something for us to do?" ”
Klee retracted her smile, "He, let's help set up a few witchcraft circles outside." It's so weird, I've never seen it before. ”
Kree unfolded the parchment and showed it to the two consciousnesses opposite.
With permission, Ann and Agu all came together.
I saw five complex miniature circles drawn on the yellowed, soft parchment, underneath a few lines of text.
There are also lines intersecting between these circles.
A pentagram was formed.
