Chapter 329: Pig!

Chapter 329 – Pig!
A slow smile appeared on Sol’s calm face.

Satisfied, he stated, “Good, then it’s up to you.”

Saul’s plan was to absorb Herman’s consciousness once again through his tentacles that were able to take the form of a soul, and then bring it back to the Sorcerer’s Tower to mimic the state of Lady Yura and experiment with all the problems that would arise when a spirit and a vessel were combined.

Although Saul was now able to access the information of previous experiments, reading a book was always not as thorough as understanding it by doing it all by himself, and it also helped him to utilize his soul talent to discover the details that the previous experimenter had not noticed.

This was also the reason why Golza had endeavored to train him and have him join the experiment team as soon as possible.

With the combined efforts of the other three bodies of consciousness, Sol absorbed Herman’s body of consciousness into his own spirit body very smoothly.

During this time, the other three provided a lot of advice and explained to Sol a lot of knowledge in fields he had not seen before.

Apparently, the remaining three bodies of consciousness also quickly understood the reason why Herman had taken the initiative to come forward.

After Saul had given up the fifth black book page without hesitation last time, they had vaguely sensed that Saul was not able to create book pages indefinitely.

Coupled with the fact that maintaining their bodies of consciousness awake required Saul to continuously inject soul energy, it could be analyzed that if in the future a body of consciousness appeared that was more valuable, more in need of preservation, and even closer to Saul, then they …… might be abandoned.

Ten minutes later, Saul reopened his eyes.

He looked down at his left hand.

His left hand was by now covered with a layer of flowing mercury. This was where Herman’s consciousness was temporarily sealed.

“It can be kept in my hand for about 3 days. Need to rush back to the Sorcerer’s Tower as soon as possible to find a suitable container for Herman to start the experiment.”

Today happened to be the day that the coachman came over to deliver the supplies, but since Saul’s experiment was going well, he might let the coachman take him back to the Sorcerer’s Tower first.

He opened the protective spell formation at the lakeside lodge. And has Algae plant a diversion here.

If someone were to patronize it after Saul left, then he would notice the anomaly when he returned again.

At nightfall, Saul got down from the carriage, but he didn’t expect to see Rokai waiting here at a glance.

He had already learned from Byron that Rokai had blocked the carriage they were traveling in here together with Jero, only that he himself was not in the carriage at that time.

But that day, Saul had just returned to the second storehouse when he realized that Nick’s body, which had been brought in two days before, had contained the implied order for the Lost Soul Flower Seal.

Whether or not he would have been blocked by the two Rokai that day, there was no delay in the Land Rover’s inner circle exerting influence on the Lost Soul Flower Seal.

Saul jumped off the wagon and told the mushroom wagoner to go back first, while he himself took the initiative to walk up to Rokai.

“What a coincidence, Chairman Rokai.”

Rokai gazed at Sol, and a bright smile suddenly bloomed on his expressionless face.

“Hee hee hee, congratulations ah, Saul, you’re the one I know who has promoted to a third level apprentice in the shortest time yet. It’s worthy of being an apprentice under Lord Tower Master himself, from now on I’m going to call you Senior Saul.”

“No need, you can still just call me Saul.” Sol returned a polite smile.

The president of the Mutual Aid Association, Luo Kai, also seemed to be twenty-seven or eighteen this year, but he never had the sense of urgency that other older second level apprentices had, and all day long he was either organizing exchange meetings or giving lessons to first level apprentices, as if he had no intention of advancing to the third level apprenticeship at all.

“Are you going out?”

“No, I’m purposely waiting here for you to come back.” Luo Kai said with a smile, “I’ve sent several first level apprentices here …… and another entrance, guarding every day to see when you’ll be back.”

“Anything?” Saul’s mind turned sharply.

Is it the aftermath of the last return to the tower? Or was it that formation in the hut by the lake?
“Hehehe, what else could I be up to? But it’s just that after the last exchange, a lot of people want to invite you to go again.”

“I’m sorry, I’ve just recently taken up my mentor’s assignment and I’m rather busy, so I’ll attend it later when I’m free.”

Luo Kai’s playful demeanor tempered, he naturally knew who the mentor was in Saul’s words.

“What a …… pity, many people are waiting to trade with you. But naturally, Lord Tower Master’s matter is more important.” The smile crept back onto Rokai’s face, “I will inform you of every gathering in the future, and I hope to show up at the exchange again someday.”

Rokai smiled and stepped back into the shadows, giving way to the passage into the Wizard’s Tower.

Saying a hasty farewell to the unsuspecting Rokai, Sol rushed back to the second vault.

He summoned Hayden and told her to continue participating in the daily afternoon experiments starting tomorrow.

Afterward, Saul went straight to a corpse. “If there was ever a vessel most suitable for Herman’s consciousness, it would be this one.”

In front of him, Herman, who had been transformed by the mortician, stood straight up.

Saul removed the mercury seal on his own left hand, and the hand inside remained in the shape of an octopus tentacle. And there was a black shadow in the center of the translucent tentacle.

“Although there’s no longer anything vital to say about the corpse. But the place where the body of consciousness is stored still needs to be considered.”

Saul recalled the history he had once seen when he borrowed Komoro.

In the underground laboratory, Golza stood behind the chattering Lady Yura and sliced her head open with a slap.

At the end of the scene, Saul remembered that Golza seemed to …… take the top half of Lady Yura’s head.

“The mentor puts Lady Yura’s soul into the vessel’s head. However, Herman’s situation is a little different from Lady Yura’s, he is now completely conscious body and is relying on the soul energy I provide to maintain a stable form. If a soul with only a conscious body is original, and the soul energy comes from someone else, will it also be rejected by the body?”

Thinking like this, Saul brought his hand to Herman’s corpse’s – chest.

He didn’t choose the head, because Mentor Golza’s experiment had obviously failed. And Saul thought that the head was obviously an important, but also dangerous place.

For his first experiment, Saul still wanted to play it safe.

Let’s see if Herman’s corpse would reject his body of consciousness first.

Saul carefully brought the mass of black light representing Herman over. His arm slowly morphed as it moved, gradually transforming from an octopus tentacle into a giant syringe.

“Sure enough, the change in form helps my mental power work as needed, and it’s also a kind of psychological hint.”

The syringe’s needle stuck into the corpse’s chest and slowly advanced.

Saul meanwhile detached a trace of his mental power to surround Herman’s conscious body, constantly monitoring his state.

The black body of consciousness seemed to sense the change in position and began to tremble slightly.

And the closer he got to the body, the more he trembled.

“Is the body of consciousness instinctively afraid?”

“The soul is afraid of its own body? No, the current vessel and his original body are still two different concepts, maybe I have to prepare to abort the experiment at any time.”

Although it was necessary to create a platform of consciousness in order to take these bodies of consciousness out, it was still easy to send them back, just ask the diary to absorb them again.

It would also be a good idea to cleanse it of any contamination it had been subjected to in the outside world in the meantime.

Although he noticed the abnormal behavior of Herman’s consciousness body, Saul still didn’t terminate the experiment immediately.

But his spirit was also tightly strained, if he could, he still didn’t want Herman’s body of consciousness to go wrong so soon.

The injection had already come to the final stage, and the black body of consciousness disappeared a little bit into Herman’s body.

The sliver of spiritual energy released by Saul was also still steadily sending back the information inside.

In the next second, Saul suddenly realized that the body of consciousness that that trace of spiritual energy was entangled in was gone.

“How ……”

He had just frowned when he saw Herman on the opposite side open his eyelids.

None of the corpses in the storehouse had eyes, and their eyes had been stored in a special place in the Wizard Tower.

So when Herman’s corpse opened its eyes, what Saul saw was a cloud of emptiness.

But when the head lowered and the emptiness met Saul’s eyes, he felt something else watching him from behind the darkness.

“Herman?”

“Pig!”

Saul blacked out, “Stick your tongue out before you talk!”
