Chapter 756 Stay Away from Water
Chapter 756 Stay Away from Water
After leaving the upper room, Thor was preparing to return to his cabin.
But he saw a little girl at the corner of the stairs.
The little bundle, about four or five years old, was biting its left thumb while looking up at Thor with its round eyes.
"Brother, are you a bad person?"
Thor hadn't seen such a small human cub in a long time. He crouched down and looked at the little girl. "I'm not a bad person."
"If it wasn't a change of personnel, why did you go into that house?"
"If the older brother is replaced, he won't be able to get out."
The little girl's mouth gaped open, as if she had just realized something.
Saul found it amusing, patted the little girl's head, and got up to go downstairs.
"dad!"
Thor froze, looked down, and realized that the little girl wasn't calling for him, but for the person behind him.
He turned around and was surprised to see Paul, the wizard apprentice who had just interrogated him, standing expressionlessly in the corridor.
The adorable human cub rushed to Paul's side, hugging his knees, "Daddy!"
Paul, the wizard apprentice, remained standing still. It looked as if he wasn't being hugged by the little girl, but rather coiled up by a giant python.
But Saul could tell that Paul wasn't afraid when he was with the little girl; rather, he was nervous.
Highly tense.
"He really is the child's father." Thor tried hard to control himself from showing a funny expression.
"Ahem," Paul cleared his throat, suddenly covered the little girl's ears, and then said to Saul, "Here's a piece of advice: don't believe in the cat's gratitude. People who come into contact with it may be lucky at first, but they will all drown in the end."
"Drowned?" Thor thought of how Mike had died.
The man who died in a thin layer of wash water.
Paul bent down and held the little girl in his arms carefully and stiffly, like holding a piece of cream. He stopped talking to Saul and turned to leave.
The little girl hugged Paul tightly, rested her chin on his shoulder, and looked at Saul with her big, fluttering eyes.
Thor waved to the little girl, silently saying goodbye.
The little girl didn't respond; she just buried her head in Paul's shoulder.
"This is the first time I've seen a wizard apprentice with a child," Thor said, strolling back to his room.
The death of businessman Mike appears to have been deliberately suppressed.
During the rest of his journey, Saul heard no one discussing death, nor did anyone else experience any further accidents.
After a month of peaceful yet boring flight in the sky, the airship finally arrived at Thor's final destination—Sky City.
"This is Sky City."
As they were about to connect with the Sky City airport, most travelers packed their luggage and stood on the top-level corridor.
Although passengers are not allowed on the deck before docking, the uppermost corridor has windows with scenic views.
This was the first time Thor had stood here, looking at the scenery across the way.
There were two people beside him at this time. One of them seemed to have been to Sky City before and was introducing the other to the other.
"Sky City was originally an island in the sea, but it was later moved to the sky by the Sky City Lord's magic."
The other person complimented them enthusiastically.
Wow! It's like a place where gods live.
Thor followed their gaze and saw a small island floating in the clouds in a clear, azure sky.
The island is quite large, with its lower half completely obscured by impenetrable clouds and mist, making it appear as if it is floating on a sea of clouds.
The upper part of the island is a city built around a ring-shaped volcano.
A gray road winds its way up to a light blue castle at the top.
The mountaintop is still covered in snow, while the foot of the mountain is submerged in a sea of flowers.
White and pink petals were blown by the wind and rolled into the rooms of local residents.
Even through a window, it felt as if I could smell the fragrance of flowers.
"It looks like a paradise on earth," Thor thought to himself, but his gaze fell on the lower half of the island, which was completely shrouded in mist.
The distance was quite far, and he couldn't see what was underneath the clouds.
But he knew that raising an island would require a powerful magical array and a continuous consumption of resources.
"It's really unnecessary," Thor secretly shook his head. "To expend so much magic to raise an island, is it just for show?"
While he appreciated it, Thor didn't approve of such a waste of magic.
Unless there's something else going on.
A few minutes later, the airship gave a slight jolt.
Two servants came and opened the door to the deck.
"Please disembark in an orderly manner and avoid crowding."
Those who can afford to ride in an airship are all wealthy or influential, so there's no competition among them.
Many people were still in their rooms, preparing to leave only after most of the other people had left.
Thor, like an ordinary person, carefully carried his heavy suitcase, holding the orange cat in his other hand, and stepped onto the not-so-wide footboard to get off the airship.
After following the crowd to the plaza outside the airport, he did not leave immediately, but instead found a shady spot under a shop awning to wait.
"Lord Thor, what are you waiting for?"
Kate was placed on the box so that the two could communicate.
Here, one can already see quite a few wizard apprentices walking around, and the faint magical fluctuations generated by the two exchanging secret words will not attract the attention of others.
"Waiting for the cat."
"Meow?"
Thor's lips didn't move, but his voice reached Kate the orange cat's ears: "The wizard apprentice on the airship didn't notice the white porcelain kitten after discovering Mike's body. He only became serious after I mentioned it. Before that, he probably just considered Mike's death a simple murder. What does that mean?"
Kate smacked her lips. "That means someone took the little white porcelain cat before Paul saw the body."
He turned to Saul. "You were so interested in that kitten, why didn't you take it back then?"
"Because I want to observe objectively," Saul smiled. "You see, just like you would observe that servant."
The servant who had guided Saul onto the airship and then brought him to Paul for questioning was now hurrying off the airship, carrying a suitcase in his hand.
Just as Thor was about to follow, someone suddenly walked up to him.
The newcomer was a wizard wearing a light blue cloak, with a few petals still clinging to it.
The cloak was engraved with a concealment array, making it impossible for outsiders to discern the strength of the person before them.
But when Thor scanned the area with his mental energy, he immediately discovered that the other party was a formal wizard, and a second-tier formal wizard at that.
The newcomer raised her head, revealing a stunningly beautiful face.
"Welcome to Sky City, Lord Thor."
Saul touched his face and asked without any airs, "How did you recognize me?"
The witch smiled brightly, "Your illusion magic is so skillful that no one else can recognize you. I only found out you were here because of the city lord's guidance."
"Lord Ophelia? She's actually paying attention to the airport."
The witch who came to fetch Thor smiled, "In Sky City, the Lord is omnipresent."
