Thor followed Shaquille into the basement of the Academy.

In both the Shikai and the Questoin, there are pipes that extend from the heart of the machine.

It can also be said that the most important areas of the entire Sky City are also connected to the Heart of the Machine.

And these important areas also have passages to enter the Heart of Machinery, but most of the time these passages are closed, and Ophelia only enters through the spatial transfer circle to avoid the wear and tear of the Heart of Machines as much as possible.

But now, the space transfer circle that once housed in the White Glazed Fort has disappeared. And when the space circle is not in use, there is hardly any magic fluctuation, so now no one knows where Ophelia has transferred the external circle.

As a result, Thor can now only attempt to enter the Heart of the Machine through a connected pipe.

Under Shaquille's guidance, he found a pipe that was mixed in with other vents, and then reached into his fate line first.

The passage is hollow, and the flipped and folded pipes inside have no effect on the fate line.

It's just that after going down to a certain depth, the air starts to become fuzzy and viscous, and there seems to be a lot of steam mixed in the pipes.

Thor's line of fate continues deeper.

The walls of the pipes began to become blurry, rough, and covered with shriveled debris.

It is supposed to be the limbs of a living being, but because it is so fragmented, there is no way to directly tell what kind of creature it is by the naked eye.

There is no way to confirm whether it is the low-level wizards who were sacrificed to Sky City as nourishment.

Thor's spiritual power continued downward without the slightest hindrance.

Semi-liquid and semi-solid things began to appear in the pipes. This unknown thing and the pipe are almost integrated, gently ebbing and falling at a frequency like the rate of a normal heartbeat.

Seeing this, Thor knew that he was about to reach his destination.

Although Thor's line of fate entered smoothly, it was not really without danger inside the pipeline. It's just that for the fate line, many traps and prohibitions are things on another level, and they can't affect such a high-level existence as the fate line at all.

If someone else wanted to enter the Heart of Machines through the pipe, it wouldn't have been as smooth as Thor's.

Even a fourth-order wizard would take quite a long time, and the movements and chain reactions would most likely alarm Ophelia.

Thor continued deeper, bypassing a complex mechanical structure that looked like it could easily explode and into a place below where there was spatial feedback.

This is supposed to be the place where Ophelia and Thor once experimented with exploring and connecting with the world of Illusion.

As the fate line deepened, the pipe became smooth again, and the metallic feeling weakened, more like a girl with silver skin, smooth and warm to the touch.

Finally, the Destiny Line breaks through the last barrier and enters the heart of the machine.

But to Saul's disappointment, Ophelia wasn't even here!

After confirming the circle, Thor searched almost all the corners, but found no trace of Ophelia and no magic fluctuations.

The whole heart of the machine was clean, like no one had been here in years.

Thor withdrew his hand and looked at Shaquille, who was standing on the sidelines and didn't dare to leave, "She's not in the heart of the machine. ”

Shaquille was waiting for Thor to enter the pipeline, and then found that he couldn't enter, or was blocked from taking tough measures, but who knew that before he could think of a coping strategy, Thor actually told him that the city lord was not inside?

No, how do you know?

Shaquille's mind was full of question marks.

"Is there any other place besides the White Glazed Castle and the Heart of the Machine?"

Shaquille spread his hands helplessly, "I really don't know about this. In fact, on weekdays, we don't know the movements of the city lord of Ophelia. After all, you know, if we want to find the city lord, we just need to go to the White Glass Castle and pull a random city lord to tell you. ”

Thor clasped his hands to his chest, his fingers tapping his arms constantly, "Yes, the original Ophelia was everywhere, but now Ophelia is not left. So where can she go? ”

Ophelia was clearly deliberately concealing her whereabouts so that outsiders would think she was in Sky City.

"Who among you was Ophelia last seen?"

Shaquille sweated on his forehead, and he found that he couldn't answer the few questions Thor asked.

"This, at that time, the city lord suddenly sent us a message to close the White Glass Castle for study, so we didn't see her."

"And when did she deliver the message to you?"

Shaquille hurriedly announced a date.

Thor did the math in his mind, and found that the date was not long after he escaped from Sky City.

He thought to himself, "I met Kismet when I came out of Sky City. Kismet said he would help me settle Ophelia. And after that, Ophelia really didn't come after me. Could it be that her sudden retreat had something to do with Kismet? ”

"Douglas, who used to be the owner of the diary, who had traveled for hundreds of years and had not returned, suddenly returned to the wizarding world. Is it because of what Kismet and Ophelia did? Let's say they teamed up to send a signal to Douglas? ”

At that time, Ophelia failed to be promoted, but he regarded Thor as the next channel to be promoted to the fifth rank, if Kismet had any way to make Ophelia give up pursuing Thor and cut off contact with the outside world, it must be something related to promotion.

If you want to know the way to advance to the fifth order, of course, you can directly ask a fifth-order wizard who is the most efficient!

Thor struggled to tie the three of them together.

"If Ophelia is really related to Douglas, then she is most likely not in Sky City, but in the Iskeper Continent!"

Thinking of this, Thor flew directly into the sky of Sky City, looking down at the wizards and ordinary people who were busy on the ground.

Immediately, his voice spread throughout Sky City.

"Your Excellency Ophelia, I'm Thor, and I want to borrow your Sky City, if you don't refuse within a day, it will be considered that you have agreed by default!"

There was an uproar on the island, and those who knew Thor and those who didn't were stunned.

Shaquille, the head of the practice institute who had just followed Saul, opened his mouth even wider.

"Borrow what?"

His voice was not loud, but Thor could still hear it clearly in the air.

Thor lowered his head, and Shaquille's dazed expression was already present in his eyes.

"If Ophelia doesn't refuse, everyone in Sky City needs to leave within ten days. The transfer will be carried out by the director of the practice institute, and everything will be done according to your old practice. ”

Shaquille knew at this time what it meant not to be the most surprised, only more surprised.

If it weren't for the sake of maintaining his dignity as a third-order wizard, he really wanted to follow the example of other ordinary people, sit on the ground with his ass, throw off his arms and quit.

This kind of thing of people moving around the island in ten days...... What a special example!

After Saul finished speaking, he didn't care about the reaction of the others, and flew directly into the main hall of the White Glazed Castle, and sat on the throne of the city lord where the Ophelia vase had sit.

Anyway, the next eleven days of waiting, Thor will not waste it.

Eleven days later, he will set out to transform this isolated island into a carrier of fallacy, that is, a bait that carries the essence of error, and then feed it to the abyss!

The transformation was destined to be extremely difficult, but Saul had already figured out that he would ask Douglas to come over and study it together.

After Thor discovers that the Abyss seems to be trying to stop Camus from breaking out of the Black Tide, he discovers that all the avenues to communicate with Camus have been cut off.

Since Douglas must let the Black Tide completely explode and let the abyss completely open the apocalyptic erosion, then obediently come and work for him!

Otherwise, Thor will lie flat and not do anything!

Let him watch the hell!
