Chapter 495: What He Saw
Chapter 495: What He Saw
Does Saul trust Shia?
Or did he ever come close to trusting Kent?
Or the kindly, hospitable Dean Pond?
NO.
Saul believed no one.
How could Saul trust a few people he’d met less than six months ago when he hadn’t grown up together, hadn’t sacrificed his life to save his own, and hadn’t seen any interest in doing so?
What’s more, on the first day he entered the archaeologists, he found that there was something wrong with this city, on the surface, the population was large and thriving, and the witchcraft props were used in daily life to break through the traditional shackles, which was very close to the modernized society.
But look closely at the shadows beneath the curtain of prosperity, the stereotypical working hours, the intense pressure of the nature of the work, the monotonous and repetitive content of the work, as well as the frequent occurrence of malevolent spirits in all directions.
This seemingly high-rise, modernized big city is like a machine rotating under high pressure and overload, and every now and then a few screws and pieces of iron of unknown use crumble out, giving Saul a sense of immediacy that everything in front of him will suddenly explode and turn into rubble at some point.
Despite the large number of wizards and apprentices who were constantly working to perfect and repair it, Saul did not consider it a safe place to live.
And now it seems that the perfect repair on the surface is actually just a cover for the rust on the inside.
Saul lifted the cover of the engine and saw the chassis underneath that was already leaking oil.
It was a pity he couldn’t remain here to woolgather.
“What exactly did Dean Bond build this city for? How many people here are human? How many are only human skin?”
Kent gradually regained his composure at a question from Saul.
“It’s not for you to know. Even if you were a student of Gortha’s, you’d sink into the swamp for that.”
Seeing that Kent had made up his mind not to tell the truth, Sol no longer grated.
The other party came in with absolutely no good intentions, testing Saul to see if he knew the inside story.
I’m afraid that the so-called source of pollution was arranged by the other party. And the huge Pod that suddenly appeared in the room, and the humanoid smoke were obviously under Kent’s control as well.
The other party had brought manpower with him, as well as powerful sorcery as well as the identity of a landlord. It was impossible for Saul to tangle with him.
Therefore, when Saul entered the room and made sure that there were no other sorcerers around for the time being, he immediately took the lead in unleashing his most powerful sorcery, the Battlefield of Consciousness, on Kent.
Kent was caught off guard, or rather he didn’t expect that Saul would be the first to strike at him. Without any defense, he was easily pulled into the battlefield of consciousness by Saul.
Thus even though his spiritual power was actually quite powerful, he was captured before he could put up any resistance.
However, just as Saul’s body was gradually softening and completing the transformation from human to monster, he felt a searing pain coming from underneath him.
Looking down, the platform underneath Saul’s feet became reddish, as if there was a blazing fire sizzling underneath.
The lower half of Saul’s body, which had already turned into a tentacle, soon made a burning sound under such a scorching heat.
“As expected of a second-ranked sorcerer, you’re the first one to actively change the surroundings after entering this place. It seems that in the future, when I pull a second-order sorcerer, I must be prepared to fight on the platform.” Saul said indifferently.
On the other hand, Kent on the opposite side had long since been shocked to the point of being in a state of shock.
His third-order sorcery “Geocentric Armageddon” was a unique sorcery that he had adapted based on another “Pyroclasm” and according to the principle of volcanic eruption.
Both the magic strength and destructiveness were several times stronger than normal third-order sorcery.
However, the flaming plasma that should have been directly erupted here only heated up the ground!
Kent didn’t believe it, he didn’t care that Saul had already discovered his sneak attack, he mobilized his spiritual power once again, mouthed incantations, and frantically output his magic power.
However, the stone slab under Saul’s feet only became a little redder, still not achieving the effect he wanted.
“Not bad, let’s call it a day, although I majored in the dark attribute, I have also mastered some fire attribute sorcery. Since you sent it to my door, I’ll take it with a smile.”
Kent didn’t understand what was going on even now.
But he had already figured out that the current position he was in was definitely not caused by any illusion.
He even suspected that he had entered a world side.
But it’s impossible for a world side to move at will ……
Kent’s throat loosened up and down and finally gave up.
The support that was supposed to arrive in seconds hadn’t shown up so far, and he no longer intended to continue fighting with Sol. He thought that he would not lose to Sol in a head-to-head confrontation, and he still had a good chance of winning, but who would have thought that this place would be so weird!
A wall of fire roared up in front of Kent.
This is just the most common fire wall spell, he did not expect this sorcery to hurt Saul, so as soon as he waited for the huge fire wall to block between himself and Saul, Kent turned around and ran.
The platform was not big, he only ran a dozen meters to the edge.
Looking downward, the bottom of his feet was surprisingly also a starry sky.
And behind Kent, several tentacles had already passed through the barrier of the fire wall, like a giant palm with a dozen fingers, fiercely slapping down towards where Kent was.
“Staying here my sorcery doesn’t work, I can only wait for death.” A fierce light flashed in Kent’s eyes, “Might as well make a break for it in this peculiar space!”
When he thought of this, the burning flaming tentacles had already arrived behind him, Kent no longer hesitated and jumped.
Just as Kent left the platform, all the flames and burning heat instantly disappeared.
Only the burns that remained on Sol’s body did not recover.
Sol, who had regained his human form and carried large burns on his body, came to the edge of the platform and looked down at Kent’s increasingly distant figure in the starry sky.
“Master.” It was at this time that Herman appeared from his diary.
Just now, Saul didn’t let him out at all, as this was no longer a battle he could participate in.
Unless a powerful soul arming transformation was carried out, Herman would only be able to sit on the bench in the future, and then make room for newcomers when Saul ran out of black book pages one day.
Just thinking about this made Herman break out in a cold sweat.
Even though he didn’t even have sweat glands.
“I’ve never experimented with having a spirit jump off a platform before.” Saul’s voice was calm.
Every time he entered the battlefield of consciousness, his emotions were maximally shielded by the Nightmare Butterfly as a way to prolong the time he stayed in the platform.
Therefore the Saul at this time was also the most dangerous.
Herman slowly moved to Saul’s side and also stood at the edge of the platform.
Obviously the platform was stable, obviously there was no howling wind, but Herman still felt his heart pounding. It was as if several more hearts grew out of his body of consciousness and then beat frantically at different frequencies and different amplitudes.
He couldn’t understand how on earth that wizard named Kent had the courage to jump just now.
When Herman lowered his head, he realized that even though Kent had jumped for several seconds and his figure was about to be unrecognizable, he could inexplicably see Kent’s face.
Especially since he had been turning his back to the platform – and suddenly turned back.
That face was filled with fear, as if he had seen a horrible existence that he had never imagined in his life.
“What did he see?”
Herman, who was highly nervous, trembled and nearly fell off the platform in his stupidity.
Easily easing up a bit, he looked sideways at Saul, who had just been talking.
Saul obviously also saw the expression on Kent’s face, but compared to Herman’s nervous fear, Saul’s face only had probing curiosity.
Saul even lifted one foot to hang in mid-air.
The twinkling stars around them suddenly accelerated in frequency, as if a group of people, thousands of them, were desperately blinking.
“Lord, master, I think you’d better not experiment with yourself ……”
Herman said suddenly wanting to slap himself.
Advising Saul not to experiment on himself, should he experiment on him?
But what Herman feared did not happen.
Saul retracted his foot, “What are you worried about, didn’t you see the diary didn’t even respond?”
After another moment, a black shadow of light suddenly flew up quickly from the starry sky where no end could be seen, and then it directly disappeared into the huge hardcover book above Saul’s head.
The diary shrunk to the size of a palm, and then lazily flew into Saul’s palm, “clattering” to open, revealing new black pages.
I’m going to jump far and ask for a monthly ticket.
