The big fish was bitten by the "fishhook".
Sol waved his hand and asked Xiaozao to send it to the laboratory on the underground floor. He picked up the mushroom chair and walked to the lake.
"Long time no see, Jiajiagu." He first said hello to his old acquaintance, then looked at the new second-level wizard, "Hello."
"Hello." The second-level wizard opposite actually nodded in return, "Wizard Sol."
Thor secretly looked at this unfamiliar second-level wizard. The wizard robe on his body looked more complicated and solemn, not too similar to the local clothing style of Stat Continent.
Jiajiagu quickly introduced Thor, "Wizard Thor, this is the second-level wizard, Master Justin. He comes to see you, uh... uh..."
Jiajiagu was about to speak but stopped.
Justin took over Jiajiagu's words and directly expressed his intention, "I would like to ask you to help me treat the injuries and pollution on my body."
"I have some research on cleaning up pollution, but you are a second-level wizard after all, and my means and methods may not meet your needs."
"Also, I'm not very good at treating injuries. I think since you are a second-level wizard, you should be better at healing witchcraft than me."
It has not been open for half a year, but Sol wants to keep this new patient.
Just explain your strength in advance and don't let the other party have too high expectations, lest the business turn into hostility.
"I've already heard about your abilities from Jia Jiagu, but my situation is indeed special."
Justin stopped mid-sentence and glanced sideways at Gaga Drum.
"Haha, you two adults will talk first, and I'll go find Butler Hope to hand over the goods." Jiajia Gu was very sensible and left on his own, leaving space for Sol and Justin.
After Gaga left, Justin slowly took off his metal mask.
This person's face is actually sunken inward!
The bridge of the nose, which should have been high, is deeper than the eye sockets. It was as if someone had cut off the entire bridge of his nose and then hit the wound with a hammer.
In the deepest part of the nose depression, there are a few yellow-green stains.
"I come from the continent of Nephrite and entered the Borderlands five years ago. To be precise, I escaped."
Justin's voice was calm and his eyes were unwavering, as if he was telling someone else's experience.
"I am a wanted criminal who has been ordered cleared by the court."
Inquisition, Saul has heard of it, but the expungement order...
He thought of the wizard Jassim who killed two wizards with a black blade and then committed suicide.
The other party is from the tribunal.
Seeing the change in Sol's eyes, Justin knew that the other party had heard of the name Tribunal.
"You don't have to worry about angering the Inquisition by healing me. They won't enter the Borderlands, which is why I ventured here."
Jassim’s words are very informative.
The Inquisition does not enter the Borderlands.
Why?
There are no barriers or checkpoints here. Even wizard apprentices and ordinary people can enter and exit at will - as long as they do not encounter any danger of death.
It seems that this place is called Borderlands not only because of the pollution and terrible rules it contains, but also for other reasons.
Justin paused for a moment, leaving Sol enough time to think before continuing.
"I was injured by the adjudicator of the Tribunal while escaping. My solid metal protection was almost destroyed. After I entered the Borderlands, the wound was corroded by the pollution here.
In the past few years, I have tried every means to treat my injuries and curb pollution, but my body has quickly reached its limit. If there is no solution, I may not survive more than a year. "
I don’t know whether it’s a habit or despair, but when he mentioned that he was not going to die soon, Justin remained calm.
This actually made Thor admire his magnanimity.
Few people can feel so calm while feeling the slow approach of death.
"Wizard Thor, your reputation has spread in this area, but to be honest, few people dare to come to you for treatment."
Sol touched his chin and admitted readily, "Indeed."
"Decontamination is exposing your weaknesses to other people. Normal people won't come to you."
"That's right." Thor nodded.
However, being a doctor is just a cover. If too many people come to him, it will be a problem.
"But I'm different. I've basically tried all the possible methods. The remaining ones are either too dangerous or there is no way at all. So I came to you. This is probably my last attempt."
Thor did not make a promise, "Can you let me see your injuries and contamination first?"
"Okay, but I need to do some protection." Justin said calmly.
Thor agreed.
So, Justin recited the spell silently, and a golden metallic liquid appeared under his feet.
This liquid extended around the feet of the two people, forming an equilateral triangle, and then grew diagonally upward from each side, eventually forming a closed tetrahedron.
Thor was observing the fluctuations of magic power when Justin performed witchcraft from beginning to end.
He found that the opponent's method of casting spells was very thick and smooth, but there was a hint of tremor and uneasiness hidden in his magic power fluctuations, which was as worrying as the anthills in the dam.
Then, Saul stepped forward, ready to check Justin's injuries, but the latter suddenly turned around and sat on the ground.
Then, he slowly lifted the scalp on the back of his head.
There was a harsh sound like tearing tape.
Thor tried to calm himself down and look more professional.
The skin on the back of Justin's head is voodoo-treated fake skin. And the back of his head all the way to his neck is made of metal.
Not Keli's metallic skin, but real hard, cold metal.
But this metal, which should have been smooth and shiny, actually had a thick layer of yellow-green impurities.
The shape is irregular and the surface is rough.
Sol took out a glass rod and swept it gently, and saw some small pieces falling down.
He quickly caught it with a petri dish.
"If you don't mind, could I do a little test experiment on these first?"
"Of course." Justin raised his hand, and his nails turned into sharp metal knives. He took it upon himself to cut off a piece of impurity-laden metal surface for Thor.
Thor noticed that the other person's metal back was still made of metal, and he wondered if there was still traditional flesh and blood.
These newly exposed metal layers are smooth and bright, but after being exposed to the air for a few seconds, they begin to develop some dull colors, and soon change to the familiar yellow-green.
The surface also starts to get rough.
Thor compared the petri dish with the newly grown substance on the opponent's head. From the appearance, it was the same kind.
"Something looks like the metal is rusted," Saul said.
Justin covered his scalp again, and then stood up, but still turned his back to Thor.
"Yes, I major in metal witchcraft. The word rust you use to describe it is actually very vivid. I am rusting rapidly, non-stop, and repeatedly. And this phenomenon has spread from the initial nose to To my whole head.”
When his back was turned to Saul, Justin's eyes showed a little vulnerability.
But when he turned around, the fragile look in his eyes was completely covered up.
Thor stopped staring at Justin.
He has begun to study the properties of the material in the petri dish with his head down.
He had already seen that this wizard, who looked calm and calm on the outside, was actually very proud on the inside.
Although he can bravely reveal his most vulnerable physical side, he refuses to show any psychological vulnerability for this purpose.
In this case, Sol naturally had to politely avoid it.
