Chapter 309 Mentor
Chapter 309 Mentor
“Consciousness …… soul ……” Sol unconsciously repeated.
He knew that he couldn’t draw an equal sign between the two concepts. But his previous learning had never labeled the definitions of the two concepts in detail.
“You should have already learned these concepts.”
“But the books have never been very clearly defined.”
“Yes, you are not yet fit to know. It’s like you can walk, but if you were left to mobilize your musculoskeletal muscles on your own, you probably wouldn’t be able to move.”
Saul nodded thoughtfully, “However, I still don’t understand why the people of the Landwalker would go to such great lengths to influence my consciousness. It’s obvious that I’m nothing more than an apprentice.”
Gortha let out another soft chuckle, “Do you think they are targeting you to fight against me?”
Thor didn’t say anything, but in truth he had always thought so.
This time when he came back, he deliberately asked Senior Byron to help him distract the others, just to report this matter to the Tower Master alone at the first opportunity, so that the Tower Master would be alerted.
Although Golza was also a leader in the second-order wizards, it was always impossible to fight against the entire power of the land rowers at the same time.
Not to mention that Land Rowboat obviously had allies.
“Do you really think you’re just a prop being used against me? Didn’t you just single-handedly kill a senior third level apprentice?”
Sol froze.
He had gotten so used to his status as a low-level sorcerer’s apprentice that he hadn’t thought at all that he had any value close to being utilized.
But in the eyes of the tower master, he seemed to have grown into someone worth manipulating at great cost to others.
“Could it be that the people of the Landwalker are really trying to control me?”
“It’s not that there isn’t this possibility. Don’t forget that you are already my student. Doesn’t this status prove your worth?”
The tower master was still quite confident.
Saul slightly lowered his head, but he suddenly noticed something and jerked his head up again, “Lord Tower Master, what do you mean ……”
“Call me mentor.”
Sol’s mouth opened wide.
Golza was officially acknowledging him.
But what about Mentor Katz?
Of course, he certainly wouldn’t ask such a stupid question now, but immediately responded, “Yes, Mentor!”
“Hmm.” Golza responded with a smile, then he pulled the topic back, “Now we’re basically sure that your mental body has been tampered with, and it’s most likely the effects caused by the Landwalker’s Soul Loss Flower.”
“Then how do I remove this influence?”
“Perhaps we can consider utilizing this influence …… to find out the enemy hidden in the Sorcerer’s Tower.”
Saul’s eyes lit up, he also had this idea, but it was just not good to say it outright.
“I don’t know much about the Lost Soul Flower, it’s a secret that only the core personnel of the Land Rowboat can know. But based on their past performance, and your experience this time, I can probably analyze that this should be an ability that can affect a person’s consciousness, thus controlling their behavior or thoughts.”
“Remote control, one type is to utilize magical creatures, one type is to utilize mental radiation, and the last type you don’t need to know yet, the Lost Soul Flower can’t be that powerful.”
“And the first two ways are also difficult to control for a long period of time, especially after you return to the Sorcerer’s Tower, if they want to strengthen their influence on you, they must continue to exert their influence without interruption.”
Sol blinked slowly, did the Tower Master, no, Mentor Gortha really not know what the Lost Soul Flower was capable of? Why had it been almost completely guessed?
Golza could see Sol’s surprise, but he obviously couldn’t guess the reason for Sol’s surprise.
“For the next segment, you remember to keep the puppet I gave you with you.” Gortha looked over sideways, “Did you throw it away already?”
“No!” Sol said immediately, “I-I just haven’t carried it with me on these few outings.”
But he didn’t speak with too much conviction.
In order to hide the existence of the diary, he had deliberately not brought the red-eyed puppet that Golza had given him.
After all, Mrs. Yura had hidden in it, and Thor feared that it still contained Golza’s surveillance of him.
And on the contrary, his most crucial secret was something he couldn’t tell anyone.
Of course, Kismet, who knew everything already, was a surprise.
But it was the fact that there was already his time-bomb-like accidental character present that also made Saul more convinced that the fewer people who knew about the diary, the better.
Luckily, Golza didn’t dwell on the reason why Saul didn’t take the puppet with him, he just admonished again, “In the future, keep it handy.” “Yes, Mentor.” Sol answered, the diary had entered his mental body anyway, and it was certain that it could resist Golza’s mental detection head-on.
That one red-eyed puppet was just a puppet, and it could definitely be taken down easily as well.
“This puppet can temporarily host a spiritual body, while being very sensitive to spiritual power. If you input a certain amount of spiritual energy into it, you can make it memorize your fluctuating characteristics. In the future, if any other person or creature tries to influence the Lost Soul Flower within your spirit body, it will be sensed by the puppet, and its eyes will turn black while also giving you an early warning.”
So that was it.
When his mentor had given him this puppet, I’m afraid that he had the idea of testing whether or not his spirit body would be abnormal.
“Thank you, Mentor.”
Golza nodded, “After you leave this room, don’t mention the Landwalker or the Lost Soul Flower to anyone. Talking to yourself won’t do either.”
Leave this room?
Some columns of speculation flashed through Saul’s mind instantly, but before he could ask any questions, a sudden light came to him.
The familiar door and rows of bookshelf corridors made him realize that he had appeared in the private library on the 19th floor.
“Saul?” A low, hoarse voice came from behind him.
When Saul turned around, he saw Mentor Kaz who was standing in the corridor.
“Mentor, why are you here?” Saul hurriedly walked over.
Kaz gazed at Saul with a complex expression, “You …… have actually become a third level apprentice. This speed is even faster than the speed at which you entered the second level apprenticeship.”
His waist and back seemed to have bent some more, and the wrinkles on his face became more and more obvious.
“Tower Master sees people more accurately than I do.”
Looking at such a mentor, Saul didn’t know what to say, but the other party clearly didn’t need Saul’s comfort either.
“It was the Tower Lord who asked me to wait for you here. Since you have already been recognized by the Tower Lord as his student, don’t call me mentor from now on. Just call me Mentor Kaz like everyone else.”
Sol did not have the idea of disowning Kaz after becoming a Golza apprentice, but before he could speak, he saw Mentor Kaz raise his right hand and shake it.
Saul noticed a scorched black mark on his palm.
It should be a fresh wound.
“Don’t refuse. In fact, in the beginning, I was planning to give up on you.” With a relieved smile on his face, Mentor Kaz turned around with his back and signaled with his eyes for Sol to follow.
The two headed for the ramp that led to the upper and lower levels.
“It was then that the Tower Master asked me to give you a chance to work in the Corpse Room.”
This was something Saul had guessed a bit before and wasn’t surprised.
“That was when I realized that you were unexpectedly suited for dark attribute sorcery. It’s different from your talent for elemental perception, that’s a way of thinking and habits that are well suited to dark attributes. You didn’t get tired of dealing with corpses and stench all day long, and you even had the audacity to use the materials from the corpses to modify your body.”
Kaz couldn’t help but glance at Sol again, he could still recall his consternation.
There was also a bit of afterthought; after all, the Tower Master had just handed Sol over to himself, and if he found out that the man had played himself to death, Kaz wondered if he would be relieved of his wrath.
“It wasn’t until that time that I realized your talent. It was me who was narrow-minded to simply think about magic power and spirit power values.”
Watching Mentor Kazi self-criticize one way or another, Sol tried to interject several times without success.
Today, Mentor Katz’s sentiments were unusually numerous.
The two made their way to the ramp and then upwards, entering the 20th floor.
Saul was here for the first time.
The 20th floor was different from all the other floors of the Sorcerer’s Tower.
There was a bronze door right at the entrance.
Surprisingly, it was identical to the one on the first floor of the East Tower!
Kaz walked over and pressed his right and left hands on the left and right doors.
“From now on, you are authorized to officially participate in the tower master’s experiment. Next, it is up to me to give you the details of the experiment.”
I didn’t forget this time, just slow writing
