Chapter 352 – You call this a birthday present?
Chapter 352 – Do you call this a birthday present?
This familiar font!
This familiar tone!
“Korie? Could it be that she has returned from her research on the radioactive toxin?” Saul flashed a smile, then sucked a cold breath through his teeth, “Hiss, I haven’t contacted her in like three months.”
Saul turned his head to look at Hayden, who was carefully standing in place after dispensing the potion.
“You …… forget about it, you pack up the lab materials and get back to resting.”
So originally, he intended to let Hayden organize the notes of this experiment, but fearing that this guy would overlook some insignificant but crucial details of the experiment, he decided to do it himself.
After arranging the task for Hayden, he hurriedly turned around and stepped towards the bronze gate with big strides.
As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Keri who took half a step backward.
“Why did you open the door all of a sudden?” Korrie stared at Saul with a pair of dead fish eyes, “Have you grown taller?”
“Almost ten centimeters.” Saul curled his mouth.
Kori was the only one who noticed his height change when they met.
Of course, that was probably why she found herself needing to look up at Saul.
“I’ve actually been growing taller since I completed my secondary witch body transformation, it’s just been more and more noticeable lately.” Saul nonchalantly compared the top of Kori’s head with his hand; whereas Kori had been only slightly shorter than him, now she only reached the tip of his nose.
Kori returned the glare.
Saul was also observing the changes in the other party. Ever since he was promoted to second level apprentice, he and Korrie had gotten together less and less. Every time they reunited, both parties would undergo great changes.
And now Korie’s changes were also amazing. Her long red hair had completely turned golden. It wasn’t the common blonde color, but the kind of gold that was close to brass and high purity gold coins.
Instead of her hair being braided into a twisted braid for ease of movement, it was down.
The tip area of her hair had become hardened, like a normal person with a string of steel needles attached underneath the strands of her hair.
The metallic glitter on Korie’s skin had also completely faded, not knowing if it was hidden from her or transferred to the strands of her hair.
“You finished the radioactive toxin?”
“That’s for sure!” Korie looked at Saul with a look that said, “Do you even need to ask?”
“Then congratulations on finally getting back to the tower!” Sol’s congratulations weren’t exactly sincere.
Saul was more willing to have Korrie return to the Black Castle to do her own research than the Witch Tower, where the situation was getting more and more confusing. The other party was the kind of person who was single-mindedly devoted to experiments, and apart from occasionally discussing her knowledge with Saul and going out to fetch materials when necessary, she hardly participated in anyone’s gatherings.
And as a result Korrie’s progress was evident to all.
Saul could sense a strong metallic particle aura from her.
I’m afraid that the other party was not far from the third level.
While Korie, after hearing Saul’s compliments, was the one whose eyes shifted to the left in unison, avoiding his line of sight.
“That’s not true, I still have some finishing work left to do.”
Saul froze, “Is there some kind of difficulty?”
He assumed that Koryuuta was looking for help from him or someone else.
“Idiot!” Korrie was speechless as she suddenly pulled something out of her coat pocket and held it up in front of Sol’s eyes, “It’s your birthday today! As per usual, I’ve come to give you a present.”
Saul’s whole body shook, he ignored the thing that was dangling in front of his eyes like a necklace and looked at Kagome.
“I forgot …… Korie, you don’t like me, do you?”
After asking Saul regretted, this question is blunt like an untouched little brat, which is he an uncle heart should ask?
The corner of Keri’s mouth twitched, the necklace in her hand switched directions and banged on top of Saul’s head.
“I think you have a brain fart!” She shook the necklace in her hand again, signaling Saul to hurry up and take it.
Saul was a little embarrassed and hurriedly took the necklace, looking down and examining it carefully so he could quickly divert his attention.
The necklace chain was a thin chain made of silver, and the pendant was a thumb-sized clear glass ball. The outside of the glass sphere was inscribed with sorcery spells in dark patterns, and Saul instantly recognized it as a kind of sealing spell, which had been exclusively modified by Korrie, and he couldn’t tell which exoteric nature the seal was targeting for the time being.
And inside the glass ball sealed a silver-white, metal-like substance. It had an uneven surface, and the whole was in the form of an irregular cube.
When Saul raised the pendant to his eyes, he again vaguely felt that the metal-like substance was emitting a dark blue light.
“What is it? A witchcraft prop you made?”
“It’s the latest radioactive toxin I’ve developed, and the first piece is for you.” Kori closed her hand, arms over her chest, and raised her eyebrows in triumph.
“Oh?” Saul was still very interested in Korrie’s radioactive toxin, and didn’t expect her to actually research it and give the first piece to himself, “It looks very powerful from its external property characteristics ah. Is there an antidote? I want to study it too.”
“It’s still being developed.”
Kagome continued to speak with a straight face, and the angle of her chin up didn’t taper off.
This time it was Saul’s turn to draw in his mouth, “The finishing touches you’re talking about wouldn’t be researching the antidote, would it?”
Kori acquiesced, her eyes turning to the other side.
“By the way, be careful when you collect it, it’s still quite toxic.”
“Well, see, you’re sending me a bomb!”
Saul actually wanted to ask “You call this a birthday present?” , but he didn’t dare to ask, asking would only get a blank stare from Korrie.
“By the way, I haven’t named the toxin yet, so since it was inspired by your suggestion, it’s up to you to name it.” Kagome shrugged her shoulders.
Zozor turned the pendant around in his palm, he didn’t want to study the radioactive toxin inside right now, he wanted to see if this seal on the outside was strong first.
“Let me name it?” A lot of once familiar knowledge flashed through Sol’s mind, “Let’s call it Alpha then.”
“A …… Alpha? How did you come up with such a tongue-twisting name?” Kori corrected her tongue before repeating the name in full.
“Oh, it is a bit, then ……,” Sol was just about to change it when he heard Kori interrupt him sharply.
“Forget it, Alpha is Alpha, it’s what it is.”
Seeing Saul put the necklace away with some trepidation, the corners of Korrie’s mouth rose.
“Well, I actually came back to ask Mentor Guido for advice, and to see you on the way, and now I’m leaving.”
Without saying goodbye, Korrie twisted her head and ran, her hair raising in a fan in the air.
Halfway through her run, she suddenly braked, tossed her head once more, and said earnestly to Sol, “Remember to get me a birthday present, nothing too cheap!”
After saying that, she didn’t wait for Saul to reply and snapped into the dark corridor.
“This guy!” Saul didn’t know what to spit out.
However before he could turn back and walk inside the bronze gate.
Another light footstep came from the dark corridor.
It wasn’t Kori’s footsteps!
Saul turned back instantly, his eyes suddenly icy cold.
“Who?”
The voice sounded midway down the corridor, someone who had been quietly lurking in the darkness while he spoke to Kori.
And surprisingly, neither he nor Kagome had noticed!
The visitor slowly stepped out of the misty darkness and crossed into the area illuminated by candlelight, revealing his true colors.
Thor’s eyes shifted from icy to puzzled.
“Well ……” Byron’s eyes were hesitant, not sure where to look, the cleft between his throat that replaced his mouth opening and closing with difficulty, “I …… didn’t mean to eavesdrop on you .”
