Chapter 619: He Cheats
Chapter 619: He Cheated
Pei’er had received news while rushing over that a group of people had entered the Pure Spirit Witch Tower, bringing the young wizards inside along with them into the old manor.
And along with them, there were also a few second-ranked sorcerers who went in.
After listening to the report from the wind demon’s men together, Firefly Lord Herbert said with certainty, “It’s the wizards from the Court of Judgment. As for that Miss Lucy. Look at their attitude ……”
“Yawn …… Miss Lucy is naturally that little princess Lucy Golden Thunder of the Stargate Council.”
The air was gently twisting as a man with a languid look appeared on the grass in front of the old manor, as if he had been standing there all along.
Clark the Dream Maker.
“Is that her?” Pelle bit her lip lightly, controlling her eyes from casting a glance at Clark and instead picking up the conversation in a very natural tone.
Ann didn’t know who Lucy was and looked quizzically at Pelle, who secretly messaged her, “Lucy Golden Thunder is a direct descendant of Stargate Council Speaker Alik. It is also recognized as the most likely offspring to become the next generation of fourth-rank wizards of the Golden Thunder family.”
Ann sucked in a mouthful of cool air and exhaled halfway through, “She seems to be quite kind to her master. Maybe she’ll take care of the master in there.”
“She has a good reputation.” Pelle wasn’t as pleased, “But I’m afraid she’s here with a mission and may not be able to take care of Saul.”
Pelle paused and stated her purpose, “In any case, the matter of Wind Eye is important. Let’s enter the manor now as well.”
However, the first one to speak out against it was Firefly Master Herbert.
“There is no need. Three wizards from the Court of Judgment, Miss Lucy, and four second-order wizards. These people are already powerful enough. If even they would fold in the Old Day Manor, then this place is not the eye of the storm that is brewing, but a gap that has already been breached.”
Herbert narrowed his eyes, “If that’s the case, our entry will only make the situation worse.”
Pellew instantly had no reason to continue entering.
She looked at the dilapidated manor a few dozen meters away and sighed helplessly in her mind.
Originally, she had wanted to enter with the other two Third Order Sorcerers while Saul cooperated outside. But now, due to the sudden entry of the Judgment Court and the Stargate Council, it had instead allowed Saul to enter the old manor first.
But it was a good thing that Clarke was also kept out.
As long as it was determined that this was the eye of the wind, the three of them would definitely enter again afterwards to perform the sealing.
And the moment the seal succeeded would be the moment for her to turn the tables on Clark.
Pelle folded her hands in front of the small of her back, her face calm as she looked out over the property.
Clark even just closed his eyes and started taking a nap, seemingly completely unconcerned about what was going on in the manor.
Only Herbert swept past Pelle in mild surprise, a look of realization flashing through his eyes.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he felt as if he had another good show to watch.
……
Saul had just stepped onto the porch of the old manor.
The corrupt and worn wooden steps groaned airily.
It was said that after the original owner of Old Day Manor had been contaminated and alienated, there had been several renovations by others who had tried to take over the place.
But the houses and buildings still quickly stepped into a state of obsolescence, as if an invisible force wanted to give the manor the sense of history it deserved.
As Saul was stepping up the second step, suddenly a little girl toppled through the half-rotted wood, drilled out from under the steps, and with an extremely exaggerated speed, hugged Saul’s calf.
“Haha, I got you, now you come to be a ghost!”
As soon as the child’s voice fell, the little girl dissipated like a mist, causing the algae’s ferocious attack to only bite into the air.
“Ka ka ka ka!” Little Algae looked around unwillingly, and when she turned around, she was shocked to see that her little master had gone out of her body!
Saul took a step forward before realizing that his body was as light as a feather, and once he turned back, he was face to face with Algae, who had her mouth wide open.
He then realized that the little girl’s so-called ghost was literally a ghost. “Is it hide-and-seek? What happens when you catch the little girl, and what happens when you don’t?” Saul turned around to see his body standing on the steps.
Sure enough this body was also without breath or heartbeat, as if time had been suspended.
“Could it only be possible to explore this manor through the spirit body?” Sol, however, wanted to give it a try.
Although his spirit body was powerful and could even shape-shift, without the protection of a body, the spirit body was very susceptible to contamination.
In a dangerous location like this where it was obvious that there were many wizards who had been contaminated, acting with his spirit body alone was simply throwing a piece of meat in the wolf’s den.
Saul looked at the others who were fixed in place, “It’s been so long without the next person entering, it seems that either the next person won’t be able to come to this place until I actually enter the manor.”
Saul goes back to his body and tries to walk into it.
However his body was like a closed box at this point, every time he entered he was blocked out.
“Can’t get back in?”
Thor thought about it, and suddenly turned three meters away from his body, facing himself, then turned to the left and began to learn the meditation chart, walking in a clockwise circle.
One step, two steps, three steps ……
Saul tried to keep his focus on the movement of his walking demeanor and not think about whether he could get back into his body or not.
Four steps, five steps, six steps ……
A soft barrier appeared in front of Saul, he tried to move forward but felt a strong resistance.
Saul was surprisingly unable to enter no matter how hard he tried.
He half-closed his eyes and didn’t give up.
The diary flipped gently at Saul’s call and didn’t stop at any page.
As the diary clattered, a translucent white thread pulled out of the diary, wrapped around Saul’s body, and drilled out of his palm.
At the same time, Saul looked up expressionlessly, and in the center of his own brow, he saw the same translucent thread drilling out.
Only that thin line only drilled out a length of five centimeters before it stopped getting longer.
Saul raised his small arm slightly, and as if guided, the thread of fate in his palm flew towards the thin thread in his eyebrow.
The barrier that had just blocked Saul was now like a layer of windowpaper, easily broken through by the thread of fate.
As the two threads of fate entangled with each other, Saul felt the connection between himself and his body again.
He took a step forward.
This time, there was no barrier.
He returned to his body.
Opening his eyes again, the manor in front of him had changed. It was no longer the stale manor with rotting wood and stale, spiderwebs all over the place, but a simple yet cold and clean manor.
“Am I coming to another place?” Saul moved his arms and legs without any feeling of stagnation, then continued to ascend the steps.
As he entered, Komo saw Kismet standing on the cloister, and it kabbled its little mouth and suddenly went up to bite the other.
But just as it bit down, it ‘puff puff puff’ loosened its mouth, looking like it had tasted something very unpalatable.
“You’ve gotten a lot more aggressive lately, are you really growing up?” Saul gripped Algae’s neck and yanked it back, “Don’t shove everything into your mouth!”
Sol looked at Kismet, who remained still in front of the window, and pushed the door into the old manor.
