Chapter 220: George’s Chance

Chapter 220 – George’s Chance

Angela immediately showed a difficult look, thinking, “Take it away? Take it back to where? Your own lab?”

She didn’t believe that an apprentice wizard would not be interested in the lab materials of the One and the Same!

But Angela knew she couldn’t beat Saul.

What’s more, it was recently rumored that Saul was also that person’s student!
How could she dare to mess with him?

“Okay…” Angela’s voice was thick with reluctance.

“Dead Man’s Flower doesn’t look like a proper witchcraft, are you sure you want to keep studying it?”

Angela bowed her head, “It’s not my intention to go this far, but there’s no way back.”

There was still a subconscious softness in her voice.

Saul only mentioned it casually, it’s not like he and Angela were familiar with each other.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Angela had immediately collected her killing intent after seeing who he was, Saul wouldn’t have even said that.

After dealing with Angela, Saul leaned down to pat George, but his palm went through George’s face.

He smiled helplessly, and the hand probing into George’s brain suddenly twisted hard.

“Ah!” A great stimulus from the mind immediately brought George to his senses.

His blank eyes met the translucent Saul, and he was so frightened that he almost fainted again.

“Saul? Ah no, Lord Saul!”

He looked carefully and respectfully at Saul, whose body was half translucent, wanting to ask if Saul was dead, but not daring to.

After all, many of the spooky stories he had heard were of spiteful spirits who began to do evil and kill after realizing that they were dead.

Seeing that George woke up and that his body didn’t seem to have any major problems, Saul then got up and said to Angela, “I’ll take the people away.”

Angela bowed her head and mumbled, seeming a bit reluctant to let go, but not daring to stop.

Seeing this, Saul also did not talk nonsense, directly let George get up and go with him.

Although George was afraid of Saul in this state, he was more afraid of Angela. Besides, Saul just seemed to have saved him.

He weakly stood up and once again saw his brother’s body on the ground, pursed his lips and once again shed tears, but gritted his teeth and did not say anything more.

But George also knew how lucky he was to have survived. Although he was overwhelmed by his brother’s death, there was nothing he could do about it, after all, he was just a weak servant.

In front of a sorcerer, how could an ordinary person have any say?
If it wasn’t for Saul’s timely appearance, he was afraid that he would have to turn into a flower made of flesh and blood just like his brother.

Arriving in front of the laboratory door, Saul stepped aside to the side.

He pointed at the door of the lab, “You open the door.”

George didn’t ask many questions and dutifully did as he was told.

Just as George opened the door, Angela’s face, who was watching the two from behind, suddenly changed a little, but just as she was about to raise her right hand, her left hand clutched her right wrist.

Angela’s movements froze in place, and she could only watch Saul and George leave the lab.

As Saul stepped out of the door of the room, he glanced sideways at Angela, his eyes sweeping between his tightly squeezed hands, revealing a meaningful smile.

When Saul’s figure disappeared, Angela immediately stepped forward and closed the door to the lab.

“Why did you stop me just now? It’s not like I wanted to do it, I was just testing it out. Don’t you see that his state isn’t quite right? Although I don’t know how he managed to appear in the East Tower in the state of a spirit, didn’t you say that a soul wandering around the East Tower is looking for death?”

Just after saying that, the expression of Angela, who was filled with doubt, instantly clouded over.

“What do you know?” Her voice actually had a bit of trembling in it, “You can’t see that in his body …… his body is all my kind ……”

“What?”

……

Ignoring a gasp from behind him, Saul led George toward the passage between the east and west towers.

He watched as George crossed into the boundaries of the West Tower and stopped where he was without following.

“George.”

“Lord Sol.” George bowed his head respectfully as usual, except that his eyes were red.

George was still grieving the loss of his brother, but he didn’t realize that what was even scarier was that he hadn’t lost his brother entirely.

It was a terrible thing that he would realize sooner or later. “George,” Saul said calmly as he looked at George, “I remember two years ago, you wanted to be my exclusive servant.”

“My lord, I was wrong and never dared to think about it again.” George lost his face, today’s incident obviously gave him a big blow.

“You won’t be able to be an exclusive servant. There are two paths before you now.” Saul waited for George to raise his head in confusion before continuing, “Become an apprentice sorcerer, or still go back to being your servant.”

George’s eyes widened, the red blood unusually visible.

“Can I ……” he asked back, almost subconsciously, “can I become an apprentice wizard?”

“I’m afraid you couldn’t in the past, although you had some qualifications, your spiritual power was too poor, but now …… if you want to, you can try.”

George did not hesitate when he heard this, “I want to, my lord, I want to become a sorcerer’s apprentice.”

He and Saul used to be in the same position, even Saul was still being isolated. But Saul became a sorcerer’s apprentice, and the two have been on cloud nine ever since.

Especially the experience of these two days made George once again understand what a sorcerer is noble and powerful.

Facing that terrifying woman just now, George didn’t have the slightest power to fight back, but Saul just showed up and let the other party actively back down and let himself go.

Of course, George’s heart had also vaguely flashed an idea, if Saul appeared a few minutes earlier, would David not have to die.

But he quickly threw this idea away, fearing that it would be noticed by others.

A person of humble status would not even have the courage to relocate his anger.

From George’s trembling words, Saul could feel his urgency.

“There is no need to make a decision so quickly. Becoming a sorcerer, what you can get is not only power and status, but also countless dangers and shenanigans.”

George was a bit bewildered.

Wasn’t danger and weirdness what wizards brought to ordinary people?

“What if one might not live to be thirty, what if one might become what I am?”

Sol’s translucent body softened, limbs fusing together as new tentacles reached out, the suckers on the bottom side of the tentacles revealing hideous maws.

The tentacle reached up to George’s face, and a long tongue spat out of the sucker, licking gently across George’s skin.

Obviously not feeling anything, George still got goosebumps, but didn’t dare to hide, as if frozen in place.

Saul withdrew his tentacles and resumed his human form again.

“You go back and think about it, if you still want to become a sorcerer’s apprentice, then the next time there are new trainees entering the tower, you can go to the chief steward.”

There was no need to make a decision now, and George, who was gradually regaining his senses, breathed a sigh of relief.

After respectfully bowing to Saul, George’s figure disappeared outside the West Tower passageway.

The candle lights around him suddenly raised their brightness, which meant it was almost six in the morning.

After six o’clock, the security level of both the east and west towers would increase by a level.

“Strange, it’s already this time, why hasn’t the diary still prompted me that my soul has been out of my body for too long and is going to waste away?”

Saul looked over his left shoulder.

The diary hadn’t appeared just now when he was torn by the mouth in the pipe, was the diary certain that with Saul’s current ability, he could escape on his own?

“Or ……” Saul rubbed his stomach, he could still feel a vague sense of hunger, looking at the candlestick wanted to drool, “just ate too many strange things cause? The energy contained within it extended the time I was out of my body?”

For a while, Saul wasn’t even sure if this out-of-body experience he had this evening was a good thing or a bad thing.

“Finally found you.”

Suddenly, a voice sounded behind Saul.

He turned around in a hurry, and he saw a man in a cloak approaching from the opposite side of the corridor.

The other party came to a stop five meters away from Saul, and gently lifted his hood upwards, revealing a face with foreign-colored pupils.

At the moment, his purple eyes were slightly glowing.

“Heywood?” Saul narrowed his eyes, it might not be a good thing to see a third level apprentice in his spirit body state.

“I’ve been looking for you for a long time, you’re really good at running, to have come here from the second floor of the East Tower in one go.”

“The second floor of the East Tower ……?” Saul coldly lowered his face, “Tonight’s matter, it’s all related to you?”
