Chapter 35: Dean Pound
"Meow! We're back! ”
Kate felt Thor let go of the back of his neck and immediately jumped to the ground.
After Saul let go of the orange cat, he immediately looked around, "Wizard Whitebeard hasn't come out yet?" ”
But he walked around the city at night for a long time, but he didn't find Whitebeard, and thought that the other party had found an exit.
In fact, if Thor wasn't looking for an opportunity to steal the tree seeds, he wouldn't have had to stay in it for that long.
"Oh, you don't have to worry about Wilde, he's a thief, he won't die in it."
After being brought out by Saul, Kate is obviously a lot more flattering.
The black liquid just now made him palpitate.
For fear that Thor would be unhappy, he would smack his face.
"Wilde?" When Thor heard the name, he suddenly said, "It's unlikely that it is the same name, I didn't expect the captain of the land boat to hide here." Does he already know who I am? ”
While Saul was thinking, Kate was still sighing.
"Baidong College has become like this, and it is estimated that their dean has also become a flower bone, what we are looking for...... Hey? ”
Kate stopped in the middle of his sentence, because he noticed that a person suddenly appeared on the stump of a large tree that had been empty and empty.
An old man with a disheveled head, a wrinkled face, and a confused look.
"Dean Pound."
Although they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and although the other party's appearance and bearing had changed greatly, Thor still recognized the other party's identity at the first time.
Dean Pound, Baidong College.
"He's Dean Pound?" Kate was overjoyed and was about to pass, but stopped when she saw something behind Pound, "That's the roots we encountered!" ”
Behind Dean Pound, there were dense slender roots.
These roots, in turn, connect to the center of the stump.
The slender root canal was like a human vessel, and it was vaguely visible that something was being transported to the old Dean Pound.
"How did these roots end up here?"
Thor stepped forward slowly, "This is the root of the Inverted Tree, and it's normal to appear inside and outside. Don't come near just yet. ”
After saying that, Thor stepped forward and came to Pound, "Dean, do you remember me?" ”
The dazed-looking dean heard Thor's voice, raised his head a little, and quickly sank again.
"Is he, like the dark shadows inside, no longer self-conscious?" Kate clearly cares about the dean.
He'd be hoping to get a way to open the door from the dean.
Thor also wanted to have a good exchange with the dean Pound.
Although the other party is not the actual controller of Baidong Academy. But having led the academy for so many years, he definitely knows more about Beth, about the Inverted Tree.
Although Char has already been asked to steal the tree seeds, it does not prevent Thor from working hard through the channel of Dean Baidong again.
To ensure success, he doesn't mind making a deal with the dean as well.
"Can you hear me?" Thor exuded a wave of spiritual power and scanned Dean Pound's body.
Unexpectedly, the other party's physical condition was very good, so good that it was almost comparable to a wizard at the peak of the second order.
But there must be something wrong with Dean Pound's mental state.
When Thor scanned him with his mental power, his spirit body didn't even have the most basic stress response.
"Maybe the soul body is inside the inverted tree, and only the body is still outside?"
Thor raised his hand, and his index finger turned into a tentacle and pointed at the center of Pound's eyebrows.
After a moment, Thor let go of his hand, "Strange, the spirits are still there, and there is no excess pollution. ”
Thor took two steps back, observed for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "It's that I've been exposed to a lot of pollution lately, and my brain has become ossified. It's not the effect of pollution, it's witchcraft. ”
He cast a Level 0 "Clear Mind" on Dean Pound.
Although it was only a 0th-order witchcraft, it was performed by him, a third-order wizard, and the effect was almost comparable to that of 3rd and 4th order witchcraft.
After a while, Dean Pound, who was numb, suddenly trembled, and the whole person almost fell down, but he was pulled by the root whiskers that pierced into his body behind him and stood back.
Sweat immediately broke out on his face, and it was clear that although Thor had brought him to his senses, he had also regained consciousness and been tormented by the roots behind him.
But the dean was also a ruthless man, and although he was almost knocked down by the sudden pain, he quickly adapted to it, stiffened the pain behind him, and raised his head to face Thor.
"Is that you?" A smile appeared on Pound's face, "I heard that you went to the Borderlands, but I didn't expect to meet again, and you have been promoted to a second-order wizard, worthy of being a student of Gorsa." ”
Thor looked sideways behind Dean Pound, "Don't you have to care about your state?" ”
Pound turned his head slightly, trying to look at his back, but his neck was twisted halfway through and immediately hurt so much that he couldn't do it.
Even if he is already an old wizard with a lot of experience, he can't stand it.
He laughed miserably and said, "I still don't care, this will ease some of the pain." ”
Since the other party is not worried about his own body, then Thor will not talk nonsense, "Is Beth turning the bodies of everyone in the inner city to ashes to cover up the fact that she has absorbed the spirits of these people?" ”
Pound immediately exuded a pained expression.
Even Thor couldn't tell if this sentiment was true or false.
"I was trying to save her...... But she lied to me, she was no longer the original Bethana, and she didn't even care about the inheritance of the academy in order to resurrect her. ”
"Legacy? Are you referring to the inverted tree? Beth's resurrection also hurts the upside-down tree, right? ”
Pound smiled wryly, "I don't know where you learned about the Inverted Tree, but you're right. Forcibly resurrecting Beth will consume a large amount of the Origin of the Inverted Tree, which will cause irreversible damage to the Inverted Tree, and even cause the tree to wither. In the past, we have been deliberately slowing down the progress of the resurrection to ensure that the upside-down tree will not be damaged too much.
But when Char's madman steals the seeds, Beth and the Inverted Tree are devastated. At this time, according to our original plan, the first thing was to protect the inverted tree, but Beth she, she chose to protect herself at the first time, almost overdrawing the origin of the inverted tree! ”
Speaking of this, a look of pain appeared on Dean Pound's face again, "She was obviously not such a person, she was obviously sacrificed to protect the inheritance of the academy." ”
Time can change a person, and so can experience.
Thor is also a man who has died once, but he has forgotten the process of dying.
Now that I think about it, maybe it was his luck.
However, Thor didn't have time to lament what happened to Pound, he frowned and said, "Char stole the upside-down tree...... Seed? ”
Behind her, the beard at the corner of Kate's mouth trembled, and she forced a smile.
Seeing that the person who suppressed her was unlucky, Kate was very happy, "I also made a deal with others, treated each other first, and as a result, he didn't give him what he wanted!" Lost it, right? ”
Pound nodded in confirmation of Thor's guess.
Thor touched his chin, "It shouldn't be. ”
He narrowed his eyes and confirmed that the theory of cause and effect had been achieved, and that the other party was only a first-order strength, and even if he had become a second-order in the inverted tree, he would not be able to resist the guidance of the fate-line causality theory.
"Now that the theory of cause and effect has been reached, Char doesn't know that he is stealing the tree seed. But that's unlikely. Either that, he couldn't give me the tree in his state. ”
Thor didn't get angry, he thought to himself, "It's okay, I'm also used to keeping a hand." ”
Then, he smiled at Pound again, "Dean Pound, let's make a deal?" ”
