Chapter 30: Saul the Profiteer
Kate hadn't heard of "Cat's Kindness", but he saw it now.
This guy doesn't seem to have fear in the night.
He walked on the endless road with the cat in his arms, and from time to time there were some black shadows staring at a man and a cat in the high-rise buildings around him.
Despite being carried by Saul, Kate felt a wave of fear.
He shrunk his hands and feet, his eyes kept looking from side to side, as if he had completely forgotten that he was a wizard.
What he hates the most is that every time Thor walks past the streetlight, he has to stop and wait for a while, taking advantage of the orange cat Kate's sensitivity to fear to gather those dark shadows hidden in the dark.
Soon a lot of dark shadows will gather next to the street lamp, making the already not very bright light even more dim.
When these dark shadows have gathered to a certain extent, Thor will use a special way to shake the tall and thin black shadows into a pile of powder.
Kate didn't know how Thor had resisted the horrors of the shadows.
It can't be carried hard with a mental body, right?
After passing the third street lamp, Kate finally couldn't help but tremble and spoke.
"Blackblade Wizard, are you trying to rid this of enemies this way? But I don't think it's going to work. ”
The orange cat took a quick look at the tall buildings beside him.
The fears these buildings had not alleviated as Thor had killed some of the Shadows.
"I think these black shadows should be the attachments here, and if you break these, it won't affect this place."
"Actually, I didn't break these shadows to destroy this place." Thor took two more steps forward before stopping, "Do you feel that your eyes are on us all the time?" ”
The orange cat stiffened its front paws, "Of course there is, there has always been, these dark shadows have been watching me since I came in. By the street lamp, in the room, and the moon in the sky! What is the moon? It's the scariest eye here! ”
Thor abruptly interrupted Kate: "You're right. ”
“?” Kate was puzzled and then emphasized, "Right? Rather than working in vain......"
Unexpectedly, Thor raised his head and stared at the moon overhead.
"I always felt a sense of gaze as soon as I came in. That gaze was different from the other beings here, very special...... Because he's sane. ”
"Sanity?" Kate was a little puzzled.
"It's normal that you don't know, after all, you don't know where this is. What exactly are we in. ”
"You know?"
"Hmm." Thor looked up, his eyes locked on the moon overhead.
At this time, the moon becomes a full moon again.
It was as if he was looking at Thor.
Thor exclaimed, "This is actually a replica of the archaeological city of Stenet by the Upside-Down Tree. But there has always been a presence here that is not part of the archaeological city and has not been discovered. It exists so blatantly that I haven't thought about it for a long time, and it may not be the product of the Inverted Tree. ”
The moon overhead bent little by little under Thor's gaze.
"Really, Mr. Moon?"
As soon as Thor's words fell, the moon in the sky fell at a speed of free fall.
"So, isn't that the moon?" Kate was finally free, immediately jumped off Thor and ran backwards seven or eight steps in a row before stopping and turning to look at the sky.
"What's so strange about that?" The moon fell directly in front of Thor and was suspended about a meter above the ground.
When you get closer, you can see that the moon is actually a spherical shell of light.
It's just that two eyes and a mouth suddenly grew on the shell, and when I came up, I complained about the orange cat.
"Is the moon you see the moon? Do you look like a fat cat when you're really a cat? Do you think you're surrounded by illusions? ”
Kate was stunned by the moon.
Although he wanted to say that he was not fat, he did not have a chance to speak.
Seeing that the orange cat was unresponsive, Moon seemed to think that he was not threatening, and looked at Thor again.
"I saw you as soon as you came in, and I knew you weren't a good stubble. You deceived everyone by pretending to be honest, and even I was deceived by you. Damn, sure enough, believing that strangers will pay! ”
Thor raised his eyebrows, he suddenly knew who the moon was in front of him.
"Char Wizard?"
"You don't have to pretend, if you don't know who I am, will you deliberately show your strength in front of me so as to lure me to show up?"
Char is sick again.
Always speculate on others with the utmost malice.
However, it may also be because of this personality that he has become an outlier among the spirits absorbed by the inverted tree.
"Whatever you want." Thor didn't bother to explain, "I came here to want something, but the state of the Inverted Tree has obviously changed. So I need to figure out one thing, what's going on with the tree now? Who is the owner of this tree? ”
Kate, who was asked stupidly by Char, couldn't help but turn her gaze to Thor.
"Who is this blackbladed wizard? He seems to know more than Wilde. A cold light flashed in the orange cat's big cute eyes, and then disappeared in an instant, returning to a stupid state.
He tried to narrow his presence as hard as he could, and pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation.
"Hmph, why should I tell you?" Char, who turned into the moon, snorted coldly, "Do you also covet the upside-down tree?" That's not something you can imagine! ”
Thor clasped his hands to his chest and sneered, "Why do you care? Anyway, no matter who it is, it can't be you, a spirit that has long been a puppet. ”
Moon's eyes narrowed suddenly, "Are you provoking me?" No need to work in vain. You just need to know that without my help for you, you will be trapped in the inverted city forever, forever and ever, until you too become the cocoon of the inverted tree. ”
The moon viciously threatens Thor and Kate.
"You don't have to worry about it." Thor suddenly stepped forward and reached for the moon.
The moon rose rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it was at the level of a streetlamp.
But Thor's speed was not slow, not only that, but the gray translucent tentacles he suddenly threw out with his arm were even faster, directly stopping the moon halfway, and quickly wrapped back and tied a knot on him.
"You?" Seeing Sol do it, Char seemed to have forgotten that he had fallen from the sky on his own initiative, "You liar, you really want to kill me!" ”
Char, who had been in the handstand tree for many years, was angry, but not frightened.
He cursed as he prepared to change his form and escape from the "knot" Thor had made.
So the round moon turned into a new moon in the blink of an eye.
But Char found that the rope that bound him had shrunk with him!
It turned out that there were rows of suckers on the tentacles that tied him, firmly attached to the surface of the moon.
Thor unhurriedly pulled back his tentacles, watching Char try to break free but couldn't.
"Your consciousness, though still independent, has clearly been affected by the inverted tree. If we say that without you, we may not be able to do without this upside-down city, but without me, you will lose yourself a little bit in disguise. ”
Char's struggles slowed down significantly.
Obviously, he also understood this, otherwise he would not have appeared in front of Thor in such a hurry.
Compared to Thor, who was trapped in the upside-down city, he Char was the one who was eager to get out of trouble.
Char turned into a full moon again, "What the hell are you going to do?" ”
Thor smiled, "Let's make a deal." I'll help you heal, you help me get the seeds of the upside-down tree. If it's not rotten yet. ”
