Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 171
Chapter 171 Why am I always the one who gets hurt?
Thor pushed open the door and saw Ku Jin leaning against the wall of the opposite corridor.
The other party stared at Thor silently, and his figure did not look as tall as before.
He did not ask Thor about the negotiation with Ferguson, as if he was indifferent to it.
Since the other party pretended to be an outsider, Thor also pretended to be confused, nodded to him, and left here.
He deliberately set the time at two o’clock, just because he didn’t want to be dragged by others.
However, Thor had not returned to the warehouse before three o’clock in the afternoon.
On the only way to the morgue in front of the second floor of the East Tower, a man covered in a cloak was standing in the middle of the corridor waiting for him.
Wizards really like to wear this kind of big cloak that can wrap the whole body.
Thor saw Lord Gorsa wearing it, and Heywood wearing it. Wizards walking outside especially like to hide in cloaks.
While blocking the sight of others, it also conceals the more or less abnormal appearance of these wizards.
Thor stopped five meters away from the cloaked man in front of him.
From his angle, he couldn’t even tell whether the other person was a man or a woman.
“Long time no see, Thor.”
The person stretched out a slender white hand from under the cloak and gently took off the hood on his head.
Thor smiled, “Long time no see, Senior Kong Sha.”
“I know that being promoted to level two is not a problem for you, but I didn’t expect that you could snatch this job from Ku Jin right after being promoted.”
“It’s really not me who snatched it.” Even though he had been promoted to level two, Thor still trembled a little in front of Kong Sha.
Especially when the other party’s eyes surfaced one by one, Thor felt no less pressure than before.
But what he couldn’t figure out was why such a powerful Kong Sha had not been able to advance to level three?
“Sometimes you don’t have to take the initiative to snatch something. As long as you get recognition, you can easily replace others.” The red lips flashed a smile.
Kong Sha seemed to be happy to see it happen.
“But it’s not easy to get recognition.” Thor stepped forward, “”Senior Kong Sha came here specially to wait for me, what’s the matter? “
Kong Sha turned around and looked at the darkness deep in the corridor.
“I want to continue our transaction.”
“There are no heads available in the warehouse.” Thor said quickly.
“I know. And it’s past the time when I need a head.” There was some bitterness in Kong Sha’s words.
Perhaps it was the change in her identity, her attitude towards Thor was no longer so condescending.
“Then what do you need?”
Kong Sha was silent for a moment, and Thor got straight to the point, but she hadn’t made up her mind yet.
Thor didn’t urge her, he waited quietly for Kong Sha’s answer.
The longer the other party hesitates, the more important the thing he wants is probably.
But Thor was not under so much pressure.
In this transaction, in the final analysis, Thor was still the dominant one.
So whether facing the third-level apprentice Ferguson or Kong Sha in front of him, Thor was not panicked.
“I need…” Kong Sha said halfway, and suddenly raised her head, “Who? Come out! “
Thor was startled and quickly turned his head halfway.
But he still kept half of his attention on Kong Sha. After all, this sound was too much like some kind of shady trick to divert attention.
But the corridor behind him was empty. Even the nearest first corpse room was nearly a hundred meters away from here.
In addition, although the corridor was curved, there was no obstruction.
“Could it be an apprentice who can perform invisibility?” Thor saw that Kong Sha was just standing there, facing the corridor behind him, without any other movement, and thought to himself that there might really be a third person present.
Invisibility is a level 2 witchcraft. If there really is a third person here, his strength must be above level three.
Kong Sha seemed to have thought of this, and in an instant, more than a dozen eyeballs densely fell on Kong Sha’s glass skull.
They were stacked on top of each other, and each pupil was facing a different direction.
Sol noticed that there were more eyes in Kong Sha’s head, and some of them did not look like ordinary people’s eyes.
Suddenly, the pupil of one of Kong Sha’s eyes suddenly enlarged, almost expanding to the entire front half of the white of the eye.
“I see you.” Kong Sha’s eyes immediately turned to the same direction and stared at it closely.
But there was still no movement in the direction she was staring at.
“Sol, let’s go in.” Kong Sha said, taking the initiative to step back, and the whole person was gradually wrapped in the darkness of the corridor behind her.
Sol did not doubt Kong Sha’s judgment. He turned back and squinted his eyes to look at the place where Kong Sha had stared.
Unfortunately, the person hiding in the dark was not some kind of spirit, and Sol’s semi-immersive meditation method was powerless to do anything about it.
He turned sideways and walked into the depths of darkness step by step.
After both Thor and Kong Sha entered the deep corridor on the second floor of the East Tower, a foot suddenly appeared at the edge of darkness, while its owner who had not entered the darkness was still invisible.
“Tsk!” A low groan sounded in the corridor.
The foot finally withdrew from the darkness and disappeared.
At this time, Thor and Kong Sha had already arrived at the first floor of the East Tower, in front of the bronze metal door.
The bronze door was simple and heavy, but the witchcraft array painted on it gave people a strange sense of déjà vu.
After Kong Sha approached the door, she pursed her lips, her face solemn, and seemed a little nervous.
Thor was the one who had the key, and he felt no pressure in front of the bronze door.
“Senior Kongsha,” Thor stood in front of the gate, “It’s almost three o’clock.”
Kongsha raised her head, several eyeballs popped out, staring at the bronze gate fearfully, and at the same time, she quickly said: “What I need is the Whisper of the Elf No. 117.”
Thor’s face suddenly darkened, “Senior Kongsha, all numbered items are taboo. I can’t even use them, let alone bring them out for you.”
Kongsha stared at Thor with one eyeball, “I know, I can go in and use them myself. This way, you don’t need to move the taboo objects, nor do you need to bring the things out.”
“Then please, I’ll just consider it as being late for work today.” Thor didn’t believe it was that simple, he directly gave up the position of the gate, and even closed his eyes to deceive himself.
“I can’t get in… but you can take me in.”
“Take you in?” Thor knew he could do it.
Just like Kujin took him in. And if the person he brought in wanted to harm him, Thor could use the key to directly drive the person he brought in out.
But there is also a hidden danger. If the other party is too fast and grabs something before Thor reacts, it may cause damage to the second warehouse.
“Then Senior Kong Sha, how can I confirm that you will not do anything unnecessary after entering?”
As long as the benefits are large enough, Thor does not mind taking risks. This is also based on the tacit understanding that he and Kong Sha have cooperated for several years.
If it were a stranger like Ferguson or Ku Jin, Thor would not even consider it.
“Elf Whisper is a green conch, but the size of a fist. You can’t use it, but you can move it.”
“I’ll take the Elf Whisper to this door for testing. Can you come in and use it?”
“Yes.”
In this way, even if Kong Sha wanted to enter the warehouse, she couldn’t push open the second door. And if Kong Sha wanted to snatch the Elf Whisper, she would risk offending the tower master’s life.
“It’s worth a try. What price are you willing to pay for me to continue taking risks for you?”
“Location device.” Kong Sha said, “You have just entered the second level. After you stabilize, you should consider the location device. I can provide you with two relatively safe location device solutions.”
“I know you have a strong talent for mental power. But magic has always been your weakness. So you can either continue to improve your mental power, or use the location device as a backup to forcibly improve your magic power. By the way, is your magic power over 55 joules now? If the magic power is too low, there is no rush to build a location device.”
Thor: “Just over 80 joules.”
Kong Sha: “…”
Kong Sha: Why am I always the one who gets hurt?
