Chapter 579 – Unusual Tranquility
Chapter 579 – An Unusual Tranquility
Saul had wondered if Justin could be one of the Wind Demon’s people when he thought that the Wind Demon might continuously test himself.
He just didn’t expect that in the end, Justin confessed on his own.
However, Saul could tell that the other party was not a subordinate of Wind Demon. It was more like a cooperative relationship between the two sides.
In any case, since Wind Demon had tried many times, Saul couldn’t just sit back and wait.
When he was healing Justin, he took the opportunity to absorb the contamination and secretly buried an eye in the other party.
An eye from the mezzanine of the wizard’s tower.
The paired other was planted on the butler.
This is because the butler is currently the only person, besides Thor, who can slightly control the Spiteful Shard within the Sorcerer’s Tower.
And spying on a third-order wizard is very dangerous, and Hope is not willing to risk Saul himself.
And as a complete spirit body rooted in the Sorcerer’s Tower, it could be restored as long as it didn’t completely dissipate.
Now it seemed that his worries were indeed justified.
Not only did the other side’s power kill Justin, it even followed the eye connection and almost killed the butler as well.
“Did you see anything?” Saul waited for Hope to recover a little and asked him in a hurry.
“I’m sorry Tower Master, I didn’t see anything, the only thing that came into my eyes was blinding light, followed by an intense burning sensation.”
Saul was puzzled, “Wind demons are supposed to be related to the wind attribute, why would there be light? It seems that the flames just now were also caused by extremely strong light. There must be a sorcerer on the opposite side who majors in the light attribute.”
Saul was a little worried that the other party would not realize the eyes he was hiding.
Instead, the butler comforted him, “Lord Tower Master please rest assured, they may have discovered that Justin has a soul fragment on him, but they should not have discovered the surveillance function in it. Otherwise the power that was passed over wouldn’t only be destructive and not tracking.”
Saul was slightly relieved, but then also said seriously, “Regardless of whether the other party has discovered it or not, we must speed up the progress of the magic storage pool.”
The butler nodded with a face of recognition.
The magic storage pool constructed by Saul had already taken initial shape.
The quicksand termite colony had successfully recovered its vitality, and the queen had even begun to secrete Black Flare Crystals regularly.
This crystal was a relatively harmless catalyst.
At the same time, he, Camus, and the crowd of consciousness bodies had also analyzed and improved the Monte Extraction Method. And also completed the adaptation with the magic storage pool at the top of the tower.
Now, the most important thing was to select a carrier for the magic reservoir to filter the magic.
And this carrier, in turn, must be a wizard!
As for the candidate for this sorcerer ……
It would be best to take the initiative to go out and look for one, after all, the one who delivers it to the door will most likely be someone from the Wind Demon.
This kind of person, killing more is also troublesome.
Thus, in order to gather enough official sorcerers, Saul once again began to go out frequently.
However, using formal sorcerers as filter carriers, if outsiders knew about it, I’m afraid it would bring a lot of trouble. In order to avoid becoming a public enemy in the Land of Ignorance, Saul decided that the main purpose of this trip was to pick up corpses.
With the diary in his possession, he could circumvent many dangerous places.
And this time, in addition to circumventing, he could also wait in the periphery.
However, a month later, Saul surprisingly returned with empty hands.
Agu was carrying a pile of discarded parchments ready to be destroyed upstairs when he happened to meet Saul, who had just returned and was full of fatigue, on the stairs.
“Master?” He looked at Saul and carefully inquired, “Did this outing not go too well?”
Saul took off his dusty outer robe and slung it over his arm, “It was strange.”
He shook his head as he walked upwards, confusion still all over his face.
“The atmosphere in No Man’s Land has been strange lately.”
Ever since the outer layer of Vegetation, Consciousness Bodies could act independently with minimal consumption. So Saul had left a few Consciousness Bodies that were good at research to help out at the Sorcerer’s Tower in order not to delay the establishment of the Magic Storage Pool.
The bodies of consciousness that couldn’t independently cross the Rhine Lake naturally couldn’t go out and weren’t clear about what was happening outside.
Saul instructed Agu, “You tell the others to all come to the underground floor in half an hour.” Agu hurriedly answered yes.
Half an hour later, Camus sat in the confining spell in the corner, looking at the underground floor that had suddenly become lively, his eyes roamed a little bit and finally landed on Saul in the center of the crowd.
And Saul was sharing his experiences of this month with everyone.
“I’ve traveled to all the dangerous places near the Rhine Lake, but none of these places have surprisingly appeared lately.”
If only no one had died in the dangerous places, then Saul could still understand, but if not a single person had appeared, then it was a bit strange.
In the Lordless Lands, often the more dangerous the place, the more rare sorcery materials could be obtained. And the sorcerers who came to the Lordless Land were either forced to do so or were keen to take risks, in short, they would not just stay honestly in a safe place.
However, Saul had spent a month walking through the area around Lake Rhine, and surprisingly, he hadn’t even picked up a single corpse.
This could be too counterintuitive.
Penny didn’t care about what was counterintuitive first, she was the first to run out and suggest, “Since we can’t pick it up, brother Saul, let’s just make our own!”
Several people unanimously ignored Penny’s voice.
It was easy to kill someone, but it was hard to stop afterward.
Because one would get caught up in the intense pleasure of getting something for nothing, thus forgetting that the true purpose of pursuing profit was the pursuit of knowledge.
Putting the cart before the horse will only make the foundation unstable and even mutate.
“Perhaps we should also find out if something big has happened in the Masterless Land, causing ordinary wizards to be afraid to come out and venture out.” Herman was more cautious.
“Speaking of which, Gaga Drum hasn’t appeared for a long time either …… Could it be that our place is closed?” Ann was more wary.
“Are you saying we’re on lockdown here?” Thor’s fingers kept tapping on the tabletop, making a disturbing noise.
“If you want to know, why don’t you just go out and take a look?” The old hag sat on the stool with a big grin, full of concern, “Every few years, some dangerous events with huge impacts appear in the Masterless Lands, and it’s normal for people to choose to keep a low profile and honestly not go out at this time. This kind of thing, if you find some medium-sized settlements, you can basically inquire about it.”
“Good, then please.” Sol immediately said sincerely.
“I won’t go!” The old witch flatly refused, “I’m not going anywhere until I advance!”
Saul wasn’t surprised, the old hag was still carrying the Wind Demon’s and the Firefly Lord’s wanted, even if she helped him ambush people, she wouldn’t leave Lake Rhine too far.
But look at the people around him, besides the old hag, there was surprisingly not a single living wizard.
There is only one Marsh …… who can move freely is too weak, and going out is a master who is being stewed in a pot.
Saul now finally knows that Golza mentor obviously does not like crowded places, but why he has to recruit so many apprentices.
There were many things that really couldn’t be accomplished by oneself!
The efficiency was too low.
“Is it time consuming to inquire about what’s going on here, or is it better to activate my second plan?”
After realizing the wind demon’s covetousness for his own abilities, Saul, in addition to speeding up the construction progress of the Demon Storage Pool, also began to prepare another escape plan.
These two scenarios were one offense and one defense, but neither was easy.
There was no way around it, facing the third rank, the easy way was definitely useless.
At that moment, the butler walked down the stairs and knocked on the open door at the entrance.
“Lord Tower Master, sorry to interrupt. That time that headless horseman, he appeared in the Mushroom Forest again.”
“Teng!”
Sol and the old witch stood up at the same time and looked at each other.
The old hag sneered, “Very well, you asked for the materials, and here they are.”
Saul was also excited.
He thought Brando was scared by his consciousness space and wouldn’t come back.
Previously, the first time he met someone who could escape from the space of consciousness, he was unprepared and let Brando run away.
But now he was different from a month ago.
As long as Brando dared to appear within the range covered by his mental fluctuations, he would definitely make this guy his new book page!
Made up for yesterday’s shift
