Chapter 21: The Half-Elf's Request
"So, the Stargate Council suddenly recruits wizards and apprentices from the outside world, is it just to increase the number of test subjects?"
Thor wanted to call Jeffrey back to see if he had been affected by the Red Worm. Or see if Jeffrey is still the same wizarding apprentice he saw at the airport.
But under Alik's nose, Thor still chooses not to act rashly.
The Stargate Council will tolerate Thor going in for a walk, but will not allow Thor to sabotage their experiments.
Even if it's just a sample of an experiment.
Thor looked away and continued to wait for Byron.
He raised his left hand, looked at the inactivated red worm in his hand, and asked several of the consciousnesses in the diary.
"What do you think this species looks like?"
"Like cryptocrystalline!" Penny was the first to reply, "I haven't eaten cryptocrystalline in a long time." ”
"It's true, but it's very different from the real cryptocrystalline."
Beth: [Thor, how did you touch this red bug?] 】
Apparently the conscious algae and nightmare butterflies failed to make contact, Thor caught the red worm after two attempts.
"Penny and Algae are exposed to uninactivated red worms, which are not the same as I am now. Now this kind of inactivation is easier to contact. But only if you accept that it exists. ”
"I'll come first." Penny couldn't sit still anymore and came straight out of the journal and pounced on the bugs.
But it was just as bad as Saul's first attempt.
"Strange, why can't I touch it? I've been telling myself in my heart that it's something to touch. ”
Saul shared his approach, "Don't stress it in your heart, the more you stress, the more it means that you don't fully believe in your heart, and you need to repeatedly hint to hypnotize yourself." This makes it even more difficult to touch red worms. You can only come into contact with the bug if you subconsciously identify with it. ”
Thor pinched the inactivated red worm with two fingers and spread his hand to show Penny, "Actually, I was clever, otherwise it would take a while to get used to the red worm." ”
In the palm of his hand was a half-closed star eye.
Star Eyes, who had been fighting the Red Worm back and forth, immediately lost interest when he found out that the Red Worm in Thor's hand had been inactivated.
Although it is not completely closed, it does not take care of the dead bugs anymore.
Penny saw the star's eyes and retreated back to Thor in fright.
Thor closed his fingers, covering his half-closed starry eyes.
In the face of the inactivated red worms, the star eyes have the absolute upper hand.
Saul suspects that the Demon of Death, whose basic ability is observation, can see everything that exists in every sense of the word.
Red worms seem to exist only in consciousness, but as long as consciousness can see, then the star eyes can see.
The star eye can see, it is there for it, it can be influenced.
Therefore, when Thor uses the ability of the Star Eye, the Red Worm that he is watching can be caught by him.
"If I'm guessing correctly, I can also try to catch a red worm that hasn't been inactivated this way. But the problem is that the star eye can't last too long, otherwise it will also pollute the surrounding environment. ”
Although the pollution caused by the star's eyes is not very aggressive at present, the weird attribute has been full.
Thor was very suspicious that if he couldn't control the star eyes one day and let them get out of control, then this wizarding world would instantly have hundreds or thousands of more star eye aggregates.
Thinking about the star's eyes, Thor finally waited for Byron to come out.
"Thor, how did you get a deactivated bug?" Byron saw Thor first, and then saw the red worm in Thor hand.
Thor held up the bug in his hand, "Senior, can you touch it?" ”
Byron naturally touched a handful of red worms, "Yes." After all, I had one on my back. There was no weight, but I could clearly feel it lying on my back, against the top of my head. ”
Sure enough, Byron knew he had a worm on him.
Thor was a little worried, "Will the bugs on your body affect your consciousness?" I've met Wizard Curry once, and she also has a red worm on her shoulder, and although she's smaller, I noticed that her consciousness seems a little blurry. ”
Byron nodded earnestly, "I guessed some reason, let's go back and say." ”
"Where are you going?"
"Agu and I both rented a house in Olga, not far from here, and through the window, we could see the stargazing tower normally. In the beginning, I was there researching the movements of the Stargate Council. ”
Agu explained in his diary.
[After the Byronic wizards were taken away, I was afraid that they would find them along the registered residence, so I never returned. 】
Thor understood, "Now that we're over the road, let's go back." By the way, did you set up the lab in that rented house? ”
Byron nodded, "Standard." ”
The laboratory is basically a rigid need for every wizard.
Even rooms rented to wizards are equipped with rooms with good privacy for experiments.
When Thor returned with Byron, he found that the area he was renting was one of those houses that were rented exclusively to wizards.
Each house is a separate cottage separated by a wall inscribed with witchcraft rings.
When the two were about to enter the small courtyard of the villa, someone suddenly stopped Byron.
"Wizard Byron, long time no see, you're finally back." A middle-aged man stood in front of the door of the villa next door, smiling and greeting Byron.
Byron only said "um", which was a response, and the other party seemed to be used to it and did not get angry.
Thor glanced at Byron's neighbors, as if he had seen them somewhere.
However, he was extremely sure that whether it was the other party's spiritual power or magic power fluctuations, it was something he had never seen before.
The two walked into the house. Byron led Thor to the lab.
On the way, Thor couldn't help but ask, "Senior, who is the third-order wizard who just greeted you?" Why do I always feel like I've seen it somewhere? ”
"Did you say the wizard of Douglas just now? You shouldn't have met him. He lived here before I came. According to the landlord, it has been living for three or four years. ”
"A third-order wizard who has lived in the Duchy of Olga for three or four years? Then I shouldn't have seen him. Strange, why does it always feel inexplicably familiar. ”
Thor thought for a long time, but he couldn't remember where he had seen the Wizard Douglas. I had to give up first and continue to ask about the red worm on Byron.
And Byron didn't turn around until he entered the laboratory and turned on the witchcraft circle that isolated information and retreated, and said to Thor, who had already begun to fiddle with the test table: "I carried such a big bug, mainly because the half-elf wanted to. Not? Oh, I see. ”
At the end of Byron's remark, he suddenly began to talk to himself.
But Thor had already thought that it might be the half-elf in Byron's body who had awakened.
"I'll tell you." Byron's temperament changed dramatically in an instant, and a vague face loomed in Byron's right ear.
"What you hold in your hand, and what Byron carries, is a very good container for elves and half-elves whose consciousness has been distorted. So I'll ask the wizard Byron to help me grow a container suitable for the elves to cling to! ”
