Chapter 231 Soul-Devouring Esters

After his moment of triumph, Thor tested his spiritual body again.

The result was still gratifying.

Although the new spiritual ester had removed the previously absorbed soul fragments, its quality still surpassed that of the first and second generation plastic bones. Therefore, Thor's mental power received another level of enhancement. Furthermore, as he continued to absorb soul fragments, his spiritual body would continuously strengthen.

"This material needs a new name; 'plastic bone' no longer adequately describes its properties."

As he pondered, Thor tidied up his messy notes. In the end, he gathered all the pages together, added a cover to the first page, and strung them together with thread.

He bent down and wrote three large characters on the cover: "Shilingzhi".

This is the name of the formula for Thor's second body transformation!

However, apart from Thor, whose spiritual body is comparable to that of a formal wizard, the other apprentices probably cannot learn from him at all.

This is a modification plan that would kill an ordinary apprentice if touched, and drive them mad if used.

Moreover, this body transformation was much more comfortable than the first time; the whole process felt like a dream.

But the content of the dream surprised Thor.

Why did he dream of an elf?

Senior Byron once told Thor that he should avoid contact with anything related to elves before reaching level three.

But Kongsa didn't seem to have that concern. She was even actively seeking information about elves.

I recall two encounters with elves, both of which seemed to be filled with the eerie.

Furthermore, there is absolutely no information about elves in the library. Even the books written in Elvish have nothing to do with elves themselves.

Thor felt uneasy because of his complete ignorance of elves.

Fear stems from the unknown.

"Perhaps the tower master can help me analyze this, but I don't know if he's available right now."

He used a message pen to write that he was awake, and then sat on the sofa given to him by the tower master to begin restorative meditation.

Unexpectedly, Gorsa, who had just left, reappeared before Thor just minutes later.

Along with him appeared the same sofa.

"Not bad, the compatibility between your spirit and body has returned to normal." Upon meeting, Gorsa scanned Thor from head to toe. "However, you've undergone two body modifications in a short period of time, so it's best to have Kaz give you a full check-up."

Thor nodded obediently. Although he had already done a check-up himself, the tools and instruments in the warehouse were rudimentary. It wouldn't be bad to ask Instructor Kaz to take action through the Tower Master's request.

"Do you still have the letter Kismet sent in?" Gorsa brought up another matter.

When he received the message last time, he was unable to leave due to other matters. Now, upon meeting him, the second thing he asked about was him, clearly showing his interest in why Kismet had approached Saul.

"No, the letter disappeared shortly after I finished reading it, and there was no trace of it at all."

After listening, Gorsa lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then gently tapped the sofa with his fingertips.

Suddenly, he stood up, his hood slipped off his head, and his thick, brownish-red cloak billowed to the sides.

"Close your eyes!"

Thor quickly closed his eyes.

Then, a bright light pierced through my eyelids, and everything in front of me turned red. Even with my eyes closed, I still felt a dull pain.

Thor quickly raised his hands to cover his eyes, thus avoiding the stimulation of the bright light.

In a daze, Thor felt the light outside growing stronger and stronger, almost piercing through his fingers and into his eyes.

Just as he was thinking about whether to imitate the coachman and lie on the ground with his hands covering his head to hide, the bright light from outside finally faded.

"You can open your eyes now," Gorsa said gently.

Thor opened his eyes as instructed, but everything was still blindingly white. It took two minutes for his vision to clear completely.

"Lord Tower Master?"

"I didn't find any trace of the letter either. Kismet secretly sent a letter, which you destroyed immediately after reading it. If it was just to pass on a few words, there would be no need to use such special methods."

Thor was startled and quickly asked, "Sir, are you saying he might have sent something else through that letter?"

"I think so too," Gorsa shook his head slightly, "but after checking several times, I still haven't found any external magic or mental energy. Given Kismet's usual methods... Thor, try to recall if there's anything else on the letter?"

Gorza means that Kismet may have controlled him through the letter?

Thor's expression turned serious, and he closed his eyes, focusing all his mental energy on his powers.

For anyone else, this would be ridiculous, because no matter how hard they try, they would never be able to detect that a second-tier wizard had done something wrong.

But Saul was confident that once he put all his effort into investigating, he would discover some clues.

After a while, Thor opened his eyes. "No problem."

However, when he saw the tower master staring at him, he still respectfully asked a question.

"Lord Tower Master, would you like to check it again?"

"If I make a move, it will harm your spiritual body."

The Wizard Tower is Gorsa's territory, and he has deep ties to it. Since he hasn't discovered anything, the probability of Kismet secretly sabotaging Thor is very low.

"Have you encountered anything strange recently? For example, heard some unusual sounds, or saw some unfamiliar scenes?" Gorsa asked slowly.

His question reminded Thor of the main reason he had summoned the Tower Master.

"I was unconscious for a period of time during the modification. While I was unconscious, I saw an elf."

"An elf?" Gorsa leaned forward. "How can you be sure it's an elf?"

Saul described what the girl looked like, sobbing and saying she was going to die.

After saying that, Thor asked, "Could that illusion involving elves be related to Kismet?"

Recalling Kismet's striking appearance and flamboyant manner, Thor suddenly had a guess.

"Could Kismet be an elf?"

"Ha, why would you think that?" To his surprise, Gorsa chuckled. "That's true, elves generally don't teach their knowledge to apprentices. But since your spiritual body is already comparable to a formal wizard, I'll tell you... Elves disappeared three hundred years ago."

The elf... has disappeared?

Thor was puzzled. "Since they disappeared three hundred years ago, why do people still avoid talking about elves? Besides, Elvish is one of the most common languages ​​of magic, and there's no danger in learning it."

Seeing Thor's immediate expression of surprise and curiosity, Gorsa smiled and continued, "Because Elvish is actually a language created by elves specifically for communicating with wizards."

According to Gorsa, the elves are born with powerful spiritual energy, and even newborn infants are comparable to formal wizards.

They rarely speak, but they like to sing, though their songs have no lyrics, only melodies.

When elves need to communicate with each other, they will directly release a mental energy shockwave, and large chunks of information can be transmitted completely and correctly in just one second.

Therefore, when elves communicate with humans or other races, they often accidentally drive the other person crazy.

Therefore, the wise men of the Elven race invented Elvish.

Normally, we communicate via text. We only speak when it's inconvenient. In an emergency, we send a mental shockwave, and whether the recipient survives depends on their luck.

"Elven language also has pronunciation, and it sounds like singing. However, many of the pronunciations are beyond the capabilities of human organs. Even with modifications to the tongue and throat, it is difficult to accurately imitate them. Therefore, Elven language is mostly used for writing rather than communication."

Starting with the Elvish language was Gorsar's way of hoping that Thor would gradually learn about the Elves through things he was familiar with, rather than creating a strong cognitive shock right from the start.

After all, even explaining knowledge about elves could confuse weak apprentices or even injure their spirits.

"It was also because of Elvish that the wizarding world gained a better understanding of the Elven race. However, increased communication did not lead to a reduction in conflict."

According to Gorsa, elves are not the kind of good, kind, and beautiful creatures that Thor imagines them to be.

They are straightforward but not naive; they love nature and the laws of nature.

Therefore, sometimes their actions seem unbelievable or cold-blooded.

In particular, when a group of wizards clashed with the elves, the elves did not hesitate to transform that group of wizards and the human areas they controlled into a suitable living environment for the elves.

No one in the area was spared.

This established the elves' illustrious reputation.

"Back then, the elves occupied a small territory, but no wizard, not even a third-tier wizard, dared to provoke them. Therefore, their status was quite extraordinary. But one day, three hundred years ago, the elves suddenly disappeared. No one has seen a real elf since; it's as if their existence was erased. And all the wizards who investigated the elves' whereabouts either disappeared or were corrupted."

Gorsa's silver eyes flickered. "Some say that without exception, the entire elven race has been corrupted."

Thor: ...I'm in big trouble.
