Chapter 62: A Vision That Can't Be Found
Thor chose to track down the squire on the airship, in addition to being really interested in the white porcelain kitten, there was a big reason.
Krum's death is very similar to that of Mike the Merchant.
They were the only two corpses Thor had seen in a month, so Thor was very impressed with them.
Both were drowned.
A third-order wizard, like an ordinary person, could not escape the call of death.
And both of them lost their souls after death.
As Thor searched their consciousness, he heard the sound of water.
In addition, Paul, the third-level wizard apprentice on the airship, had warned Thor that the white porcelain kitten could drown, so Thor connected the two dead.
Because it was close to dusk, there were no pedestrians on the streets.
The occasional pass-by is a few wizard apprentices.
These people look hurried and tired, like office workers.
Thor also has the illusion of returning to the Gorsa Wizard's Tower.
He continued to hide his aura and magic fluctuations, walking on the edge of the street like an ordinary person.
Although the guiding stone that Kate left behind along the way was rough, it had no magical power, and in the eyes of the wizard apprentices on the street, it was just the most inconspicuous stone.
Thor didn't have long to walk until he found the squire's lodgings in an alley near the airport.
It was an old but detached two-story building. Maybe it's to cater to the overall decoration style of Sky City. Even such old houses have brown walls and sauce-colored roofs painted on the outside.
It doesn't look so shabby.
But even then, it didn't look like a house that a squire could own.
Thor noticed that there was only one living human breath in the two-story cottage.
The squire is alone.
Thor looked up and saw the orange cat lying on the ridge of the roof.
He smiled at the orange cat and jumped straight through the half-open window on the second floor.
The room where the window was located was the squire's bedroom, and the squire was tinkering with something in the bedroom at this time.
Even though he was facing the window, he was as if he was blind, completely oblivious to the fact that a soft body was squeezing in through the crack in the window, which was only half arm.
When Thor came in, the orange cat jumped in silently one step behind.
The two men were blatantly present without attracting the attention of the attendants.
Thor stepped forward, came to the squire who had been looking down at something, and suddenly raised his hand and pressed it on the back of the other's head.
Immediately, without warning, the attendant fell.
"Lord Thor, you won't interrogate him?"
"Trouble, I'd better just look at it."
After Saul finished speaking, the whole person seemed to freeze in place.
Kate glanced at him and didn't dare to move.
Unbeknownst to the orange cat, Thor had already entered the squire's dream at this time.
Despite being knocked unconscious by Thor, with Nightmare Butterfly operating, the attendant still dreamed honestly.
His dreams were very real.
Thor glanced twice, probably after getting rich overnight, he bought the empty boat and reprimanded those high-ranking attendants, guards, maids, captains and others who were usually high.
They all knelt in front of the attendant and kissed his toes.
"Enough of it, right? Think back to something useful. ”
With a wave of his hand, the scene in front of him changed.
The attendant returned to the room, but the room was filled with white porcelain kittens. These kittens also have white eyes. And it was not painted red.
It's not exactly the same as what Saul saw with Mike the Merchant.
The attendant had not yet recovered from the sweet dream he had just had, and was stunned for a moment before he remembered where he was.
But he still had the excitement he had just had.
"Work hard, keep working hard, the money I saved will soon be able to buy an empty boat!"
He reached under the bed and dragged out a small bottle containing an unknown composition of red paint.
He opened the bottle, dipped a brush in a little paint with one hand, picked up a white porcelain kitten with no red eyes in the other, and carefully painted all the parts of the kitten's eyes red.
Saul noticed that after the attendant painted the kitten's eyes red, he would very carefully pinch the kitten's body and place them in the bedside cabinet.
At this time, the cabinet was already filled with more than a dozen white porcelain kittens with red eyes.
Thor stepped forward and picked up a white porcelain kitten with no painted eyes.
The details of the dream tell Thor that these are indeed shoddy artifacts.
He brought up another kitten with red-eyed eyes, and there was nothing unusual about either the paint or the kitten.
Thor even followed the example of Mike, the merchant, and touched the head of the white porcelain cat.
But he still didn't feel anything, and nothing lucky happened.
"Is it because my strength is not something that the white porcelain cat can influence, or is this just a dream, and the other party is not a real body, so he can't affect the people and things in the dream?"
Thor put the white porcelain kitten back, and the attendants didn't react the whole time.
"It's not right here either." Thor waved his hand again, "Since this is the moment that excites him the most, what about the moment that scares him the most?" ”
The squire's dream turns into several scary scenes. For example, falling into the water, or an empty boat exploding.
But none of these dreams had any anomalous events.
"It's pretty clean." Thor waved his hand again, "Let me see what the most memorable day looks like." ”
This time, Thor and his attendants came out into the street.
The streets here are unfamiliar, and the few streets Thor has passed through today don't look like this.
The most special building is a broken tower not far away.
At the top of the tower are broken bricks and beams.
Beneath the broken tower stood a large boy, who looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed in the most ordinary wizard's apprentice robes, with even raw edges on the bottom edges.
But the attendant immediately ran over.
Thor followed the squire like a spirit.
He heard the squire and the boy say, "My goods are running out." ”
The boy said with a blank face, "You can't come here until I look for you." If it happens again, we will terminate the cooperation. ”
"No, no, I'll never take the initiative to look for you again."
The boy didn't embarrass the squire, and never seemed to expect anything from the squire.
"Be obedient, or I can replace you at any time."
The attendant nodded repeatedly.
The boy turned to leave, and in the end did not take out anything that seemed to be the "goods" in the mouth of the attendant, quite principled.
Thor wanted to follow the boy to see it, but it was the squire's dream, and the boy's figure had begun to fade when he reached the edge of the street.
Just as Thor was considering whether the boy was the one he was looking for......
"Gollum...... Gollum ......"
Suddenly, he heard the sound of bubbling water again.
For a moment, Thor's eyes changed.
"Found you."
Thor exited the squire's dream.
The attendant was still lying on his bed and falling asleep.
"Lord Thor, have you found what you're looking for?"
"It can only be said that another small fish was pulled out with small shrimp, and it is not clear whether this small fish is the culprit. But a wizard apprentice is not like someone who can master a white porcelain kitten. ”
"Do I need to search this house again?"
Thor shook his head.
"The owner of the kitten is very good at hiding traces, and he will even erase the abnormal information of the white porcelain kitten from the human consciousness. If you are someone else, I am afraid that no matter how you track it down, you can only find that the white porcelain kitten is just an ordinary handicraft. All information about its vision was erased. ”
Thor clasped his hands.
"Interesting, since we can't find it with high-level methods, then we'll use the most primitive method."
"Meow?" Kate hasn't gotten it yet.
"It's like you've carved shapes out of the most ordinary stone to show me the way. This kind of invisible person at the level of witchcraft can often be seen with the naked eye. ”
