Chapter 707 – Behind the Seal

Chapter 707 Behind the Seal
Unlike Tutor Golza, Sol’s instantaneous movement ability had a great limitation.

His teleportation had to be connected to the thread of fate.

And he couldn’t go wherever he wanted like Golza.

Saul had Eddie come over early before he came to the old manor.

Eddie wasn’t aware that Saul needed him in order to just instantly come over, and thought he was being told to come over and explore.

He began to report his exploration findings to Saul.

“Lord Tower Master, I’ve checked this place, and no other pollution has been born since the last time the eye of the wind was sealed. It’s cleaner than most parts of the Land of the Lordless.”

Sol nodded his head a little, “Has anyone else passed through the neighborhood during this time?”

“There are people traveling to Rhine City passing through, but whether it’s a caravan, or a lone traveler, they basically don’t go near here.”

After all, it used to be the place where the eye of the storm erupted, and fearing that there would be a pollution hazard, the general wizards were reluctant to approach.

Only Eddie, who had witnessed Saul’s ability to help clean up the contamination in his body, was not as scornful of the old manor where the eye of the storm had once erupted as others were.

Listening to Eddie’s report, Saul’s gaze had fallen on the crumbling roof of the Old Day Manor.

“Alright. Next, you leave here first, and don’t tell the others about me being here. If anyone asks you about Old Day Manor ……”

Eddie immediately picked up, “I’ll just say it’s for the development of Rhine City and to examine the safety of the neighborhood.”

Saul glanced at Eddie.

An eye appeared on the other party’s forehead and quickly disappeared again.

These people seemed to have treated him like a lord of the city.

Saul did not refuse.

Though he wouldn’t really be any kind of city lord and manage any city.

He would not forget that he was a sorcerer. The road ahead would only go through endless unknowns.

Though the path was difficult and dangerous, there was no need to only pray to the heavens when danger came.

Only after Eddie left did Saul enter the old manor.

The original rules here had been completely destroyed by the eye of the storm that erupted.

After the eye of the wind was sealed, this place became very safe for the time being.

After a few years, when the deterrence of the Black Tide had passed, someone would surely reoccupy this place.

Slowly ascending the dilapidated wooden staircase, listening to the unbearable cracking sound of the wood under his feet, Saul’s body steeply lightened.

When he took another step, there was not a single sound of his steps.

He entered by following the front door that had fallen halfway down.

The main hall and corridors were covered in unknown mycelium. Some were grayish-white, others black.

A firelight flashed.

Green smoke immediately rose in the room, and the mycelium was burned to pieces by the high temperature, revealing the originally spacious corridor.

Now that Saul’s manipulation of the sorcerer was extremely meticulous, the blink of an eye fire only burned away the mycelium, but did not harm the surrounding walls or the aged carpet under his feet.

Following the familiar passageway, Saul once again arrived at the basement of the manor.

The original owner of the manor had once been alienated here and died in helplessness and despair.

And a giant rat devoured the dead wizard and became the mastermind behind the entire manor.

Once the people thought that by solving the evil spirits of the rat and the original owner, the place would no longer be dangerous.

But then the place was still contaminated by an outbreak of black tide.

Saul walked through the overturned various experimental equipment to the place where the giant rat had died in the first place.

All that was left here was a black stain, and it was completely impossible to tell what had happened.

But when the diary appeared in Saul’s hand, the surrounding peace immediately boiled up like boiling water.

“Sure enough, the eye of the storm erupted from here in the beginning, only to be shifted outside later, but the root cause is still here.”

After carefully observing the lines that coalesced above the diary, Saul raised his hand, and several black blades appeared around his body.

He pointed his index finger forward.

The black blades around him immediately disappeared into the ground. As if cutting tofu, a large pit was dug out of the ground in a few breaths.

The ground beneath Saul’s feet quickly collapsed, but he remained in his original position, suspended motionless in the air.

About three to four meters down, a strange shaped disc appeared in front of Saul’s eyes.

Only then did he drop down and raised his hand to brush away the dirt on the disk.

The disc was very cold to the touch, as if he was sticking his hand into the deep sea in the middle of the night.

“This is the effect of the ice lock spell.” Sol quickly saw the hidden lines on the disk, “It became like this after sealing the eye of the wind? It doesn’t seem to need to be watched over.”

Sol had also learned a lot about the history of the Lordless Land during this time. The sealed eye of the wind had never broken through the seal twice.

This seemed to be a special characteristic of the space in question.

So these places where the eye of the wind had once appeared would not be noticed anymore.

This was convenient for Saul.

Because he came over today to wreak havoc.

“I’m not very good at earth attribute sorcery. But ……”

Saul raised his foot and lightly stomped the ground.

The earth under his feet and around him immediately flowed like mercury and gradually merged together above Saul’s head.

The soil then hardened, turning the large pit that Saul had just dug out into an enclosed space.

Within this small dark space, Saul raised his hand and lit a few balls of light for illumination, and then he used his magic power to directly draw sorcery spell formations on the six surrounding walls.

These spell formations had Byron’s inert formula as well as the function of forbidding energy from leaking out.

At the same time, he borrowed parts of the spatial teleportation spell formations he bought in Archaeust City to reinforce the spatial stability in this small room.

After spending a small half day to make the preparations, Saul took a deep breath, and the flesh and blood and organs of his entire body instantly became transparent before being absorbed by a black skeleton like a drop of water falling into the desert.

A skeleton with a black body and only a white section between the index fingers of his left hand squatted down once again.

“Ka ka ka ka ka.”

Without sinews and flesh, the bones connected with mysterious power collided with each other, making a sound like grinding teeth.

The only white bone in his left hand slowly rested against the center of the ice lock seal.

An extremely strong cold air was channeled into Sol’s fingertips.

“This time it’s truly icy and piercing.” The black skeleton of bones laughed to itself, not dodging, but continuing to press harder against the center of the ice lock spell.

While testing the seal with the white anchor point of his fingertip, Saul continued to adjust his diary, keeping an eye on the lines above to see if they would project dangerous omens.

After an hour, Sol felt as if he sensed something through the sealing spell.

But it was only a vague sensation, and there was no way to determine if there was something underneath the seal.

After trying for a while longer, with no progress other than that vague feeling, Saul had to get up.

It wouldn’t work if he didn’t stop.

At this time, many black water droplets had already precipitated inside the closed space that Saul had temporarily created, like the water mist on indoor windows in winter.

But these black water droplets were not honest.

They were like a struggling drowning person, constantly twisting the water droplets, wanting to detach themselves from the wall made of clay.

Although Saul didn’t look at those black water droplets, his mental power had been covering the entire room.

Through his spiritual perception, he could clearly “see” that a few drops of black water had already broken free from the wall.

However, when these drops of water broke free from the wall, they revealed a face that was connected to the bottom.

The rounded water droplets here are not real water droplets.

Rather, it was the upper half of a rounded head of a human head.

They revealed faces that were previously buried in the walls, and they were clearly identical to Saul!
When the empty mouths on these faces opened and closed, there were layers and layers of voices that entered Saul’s brain.

“There is no …… meaning ……”

Just one more today, I’ll try to make it up tomorrow
