Chapter 414 – Concealment
Chapter 414: The Cover-Up
Golza simply smiled when he heard Saul’s words of loyalty.
He had long ago clearly told Saul that if Saul’s research did not work as it should when it came to the resurrection experiment, then Saul would become the object of study.
With such a threat, he wasn’t at all afraid that Sol wouldn’t be attentive.
Saul naturally said just that.
If Golza could keep his word, Saul would naturally fulfill his left and right work in earnest.
“Mentor, I would like to conceal the promotion for the time being, is that okay?”
The matter of promotion definitely couldn’t be hidden for long. But for a short period of time, an apprentice’s identity was always better than a full-fledged sorcerer’s identity for people to let their guard down.
Moreover, formal sorcerers had teaching tasks within the Sorcerer Tower, but facing the resurrection experiments that would begin within half a year, Saul didn’t have the time to attend classes every day to guide other apprentices right now.
“Good.” Golza agreed, and he didn’t even ask why.
Sol added, “Is Lady Yura by your side?”
Golza stood up and said with great relief, “She will not be privy to the conversation between you and I.”
After saying that, Golza had walked up to Saul and raised his hand to suddenly press on his left shoulder.
Saul stiffened, but held back from resisting.
He then felt as if his left shoulder was passed through by a cold chain.
It didn’t hurt, but it felt like thorns were growing in the cracks of his bones.
“You’ve just been promoted now, and your magic power and spirit power are entangled like a newly married couple, allowing others to see it at a glance. I’ll plant a thorn in your body, and if you take care to collect your power again, you won’t be seen.”
After saying that, he took two more steps back, allowing Sol to check the state of his body on his own.
Saul raised his hand and pressed it on his left shoulder, and his spiritual power probed into it, and found that the existence of this thing would indeed cause the magic power and spiritual power, which were already getting along well and cooperating with each other, to show signs of “quarrelling”.
But if Saul exerted a little force, he could break through this layer of camouflage.
Golsa is based on the principle of formal wizard promotion to help him make a disguise, than simply to restrain the strength of much more reliable.
With this layer of camouflage, the news of Saul’s promotion could be concealed for a longer period of time, perhaps until the last moment.
And since Mentor Golza had offered to help him without asking anything, was it because he had discovered something as well?
Although he didn’t seem to care about anything, as the lord of a tower, it was impossible for him to be unaware of it.
In the face of the upcoming resurrection experiment, he would be prepared no matter how proud he was, right?
Seeing that Sol understood the principle of disguising his strength almost immediately, Golza smiled slightly, “Well, do you have any other questions about participating in the experiment?”
“Thank you, I have no more questions.” Sol suddenly remembered something else, and after hesitating for a second, he still asked, “By the way, mentor. If the Haywood that you just put away was only Haywood for a period of time, then why did he know what happened a few hours before I entered the mezzanine when he was in the mezzanine?”
Gortha clasped his hands to his chest and leaned back on his upper body as he looked at Saul with downcast eyes, “Did you communicate with him that much? It really does seem like the mezzanine is your little garden.”
His tone changed slightly, it was hard to tell if he was angry or not.
But then his voice took a few more turns.
“Because the mezzanine hides a lot of people’s little minds.”
He winked his right eye at Sol.
“And that includes me.”
Golza disappeared from Saul’s presence, and then the shadows that had vanished from the room popped back in. Thor thought about Gortha’s words and stood still for a long time.
……
The next day, the Rum Tutor dormitory.
Yura, who had just undergone a round of acclimatization experiments, emerged from an eyeless puppet doll, transformed into a black silhouette, and sat down on a seat and crossed her legs.
On the other side, the nimble Kaz immediately stepped forward to record the changes in the puppet.
Rum remained seated in the corner as he kept a close eye on Yuura’s state.
“You haven’t had any more abnormal reactions in the last few days?”
Rum was referring to the other day, when Yuura suddenly lost control and had to stabilize her emotions with the Blue Water Spirit.
Kaz had heard about it as well, but he wasn’t present at the time and only knew that with Rum’s help, Yuura had re-stabilized.
“It’s okay, I went back and asked Golza about it. He told me it was because the seal I left with Sol was destroyed that affected my state.” Yuura tugged at her hair, pulled it off, and glued it back on.
“You left an imprint with Saul?” Kaz realized how he didn’t know anything.
“Heh, still looking after his little apprentice for Gortha.” Yura laughed softly and brought the subject to a close, “But with the experiment nearing, Golza won’t let me split the soul imprint anymore.”
Kaz hurriedly nodded, “It’s no longer allowed, you need to maintain your condition now. Otherwise the experiment begins ……”
He paused for a moment, then added, “By the way, I looked at the gray matter potion developed by Byron again, the formula is somewhat similar to Blue Water Vibranium to a certain extent, but since his potion is for living people, it is less toxic.”
He suggested to Yura, “If you think taking Blue Water Potion is too painful, we can actually try Byron’s formula as well ……”
“No need!” Youra balked at Kaz’s offer, “No need to reduce the toxicity, the pain will keep me awake. Lest I don’t know what Golza has done to me when I enter the vessel.”
Rum’s eyebrow jumped and a light sneer hung on his face, only to be quickly obscured by his fat.
Kaz said helplessly, “The Tower Master is, at times, a bit more forceful, but he is trying to resurrect you, after all.”
Yura sat in place, switching to a leg cocked, and waited a dozen seconds before speaking slowly, “I know, haven’t I been cooperating with your experiments? I have the least say in the matter anyway.”
Rum said with an easy smile at this moment, “The experiment has entered the final confirmation stage, and without any accidents, we will be able to conduct the official resurrection experiment within half a year. In any case, after the experiment is successful, we will be relieved.”
Kaz hurriedly agreed, “Right, when the experiment is successful, we will have fulfilled the Tower Master’s request, and we can do whatever we want at that time.”
Kaz was the oldest of the three, but was the most thoughtful when mentioning life after completing the resurrection experiment.
“I don’t intend to break away from the Sorcerer’s Tower, after all, I’m used to living here. But it’s possible to take a long vacation and walk around. It’s rumored that Cauldron City near Blue Water Bay has been built amazingly by Baidon Academy, and even ordinary people can live using wizard’s props, I kinda want to go there to see the sights.”
Yura sneered, “Using wizard props? Aren’t those ordinary people afraid of being contaminated? Or do the witches of Baidong Academy not care how long ordinary people can live?”
Rum was obviously interested in this topic as well.
“It’s impossible to actually let ordinary people use witchcraft props. Even if they did, they must have restricted it to a specific group of people. After all, Baidong Academy has to consider the population base if they want to have new apprentices to recruit. They can only have a territory of one city.”
“That’s why I said to check it out.” Kaz stroked his beard, still looking curious.
Yura splashed cold water again, “Come on, even if the resurrection experiment is completed, Golza might have another idea. This person …… loves to make decisions for you without your consent.”
