Kent's words made Thor look a little uneasy.
He put down his hands, turned around and walked towards the stairwell.
"If Xia is sure that I can't come back, then his attack will definitely target my residence. I want to go back and take a look."
Kent followed closely behind Thor.
"I will go with you."
Morton deliberately stayed one step behind and walked behind Kent. The four wizards who came in with Kent did not follow. They seemed to have their own tasks.
After entering the stairwell, Thor did not start running wildly. He glanced at the thick branches occupying the passage on the left and walked up steadily.
As he moves, the branches nearby grow simultaneously.
"Is this plant some level 4 witchcraft? Dean Pound is here too?"
"No. The dean will not leave the academy easily. This is a witchcraft scroll made by the dean himself, and a giant tree grows. Although the power is not as powerful as when the dean used it personally, it is still enough to seal off the entire building."
"What do you think the source of the pollution will be?"
"I don't know. There is everything in this world, and the real source of pollution may not be understood until you see it."
Thor was silent.
They walked six floors up the stairwell, but were still ten floors away from Saul's room.
The spiral staircase seems to have no end, and the consistent images from top to bottom give the illusion of overlapping time and space.
"Wizard Thor, I wonder how Wizard Char deceived you into going out to find him?" Kent suddenly said.
"He said... you are secretly cultivating evil spirits to kill those who want to leave the city."
Kent laughed so much that his shoulders shook, "Hahaha, so it can't be me. If I want to cultivate evil spirits, I don't need to do this at all. Aren't the naturally born evil spirits in this city enough for me?"
Thor was silent.
Kent glanced at Morton behind him, who had been watching him cautiously, and asked Saul: "Well, Xia must have made up a terrible scene for you to trick you into cooperating with him to investigate me in order to protect yourself, right?"
"Almost." Thor's attention didn't seem to be on Kent. His pace gradually slowed down, and even the branches growing around him had surpassed him.
"I'm a little curious about how Chara deceives people. Does he tell some scary and strange scenes? For example... a person standing upside down or something?"
…
At the same time, Char and Julie were running wild in an underground garbage disposal plant.
Julie was in a mess at this time, and the skin all over her body was no longer as smooth as before.
She complained, "I really shouldn't believe what you say."
While Xia Ya was wary of his surroundings, he replied to Julie, "Come on, you and Saul are different. You have lived here for seven or eight years. The reason why you agreed to come this time must be because you also discovered something!"
Julie bit her lip, "I don't know anything!"
After running for a few minutes, the two came to a dead end. There was no upward passage, and the rustling behind them was getting closer and closer.
Julie shook her white hair and finally became a little anxious, "Aren't you the best at escaping? Think of a way!"
"Strange, it turns out there is a small exit here." Xia Ya ignored Julie and just stared at the wall in front of her in a daze.
"How did you step on it beforehand?" Julie complained, while staring nervously behind her.
"I didn't expect...Kent's method was so powerful." Xia Ya's eyes rolled, as if he was thinking about how to escape.
He suddenly looked at Julie beside him and murmured: "Is it because Saul didn't come this time because he noticed something? That shouldn't be the case. He has only been here a few months, how could he know more than me? "
"How much do you think Thor knows?"
"I think..." Xia Ya was about to answer, but suddenly realized that the person who just spoke was not Julie at all.
And Julie was looking at the way they came with a horrified look on her face.
An old man with white hair and a tall wooden staff walked out of the passage little by little and stood in front of Xia Ya and Julie.
"Dean Pound?" Julie opened her mouth in disbelief.
Char, on the other hand, didn't look that surprised.
"Well, hello, Wizard Julie. Wizard Char doesn't look too surprised. Did you already know that I was behind Kent's back?"
Xia Ya licked her dry lips, took two steps back, and pressed her back against the wall where the escape route was inexplicably missing.
"I don't know. At first, I just thought that even if Kent wanted a large number of evil spirits, as the actual organizer of the sweepers, he shouldn't have to secretly cultivate evil spirits. Evil spirits cannot be absorbed directly. , he doesn’t need so many evil spirits.”
Xia Ya looked at Dean Pound and showed a wry smile, "Now I understand, if it is Baidong College that needs evil spirits, then I am afraid that no amount of evil spirits will be enough to fill the gap."
Julie was so frightened that her hair was shaking.
She dared to join Char and secretly investigate the Kent wizard, but she did not dare to confront the second-level wizard Pound.
She is not the crazy instructors in the wizard tower, but she actually wants to assassinate the second-level wizard.
"You don't have to be so nervous." Pound raised his hand, and a white rose suddenly bloomed on the top of the wooden staff he was holding. "You are all honorary tutors of the college, and I am not a murderer. Now that you have discovered this secret, it is official Join Baidong College as a tutor."
Julie felt relieved. She secretly released the colorful halo of light, but there was no black, which represented murderous intent, and gray, which represented deception, on Dean Pound.
In other words, if she agrees to officially join Baidong College as a tutor, she can survive.
To become an official mentor, you must sign a contract. Other mentors kept the contents of the contract secret, but the conditions inside were obviously not too loose.
However, compared with death, temporary loss of freedom is still acceptable.
Julie immediately raised her stiff lips, "That's great, Dean, I'm willing to join."
But Xia Ya is no longer so well-behaved.
"Dean Pound, actually we just discovered the place where Kent cultivates evil spirits, and we didn't realize what happened in the college..."
Pound didn't give Chara a chance to finish his sentence at all, "Become the official tutor of the academy, or try to escape?"
Xia Ya's expression of begging for mercy immediately faded, "I knew that the development of Archaeological Site City to its current scale was all your conspiracy. Want me to join? Do you think I didn't find that the formal mentors... Anyway, how do you want to play with me? No matter, I won’t accompany you!”
When Xia Ya spoke, one hand kept holding her collar tightly.
And when he finished saying that he would not accompany him, his chest suddenly flashed a few times.
Dean Pound's expression darkened. As soon as he raised his wooden staff, he saw Xia Ya's whole body suddenly glowing in front of him, and then his whole body seemed to be burned to ashes by the light radiating from his body, disappearing in place.
"Space teleportation array?" Pang De said silently.
Julie was also stunned, "He actually hid the teleportation circle on his body? Isn't he afraid of attracting monsters in the gaps in space?"
"For a high-probability death risk, it is worth taking a low-probability death risk. Sometimes, I still admire Xia Ya." Dean Pound looked at the place where Xia Ya disappeared and did not show surprise or disappointment, "But he I forgot a little bit.”
"...What?" Julie hugged her chest. She felt that the dean paused deliberately just to wait for her to ask questions.
"In the face of absolute strength, there is no use running away." Dean Pang De showed a satisfied smile.
