Wizard Immortal

Chapter 202 Energy

What are you doing here?

Hearing footsteps behind him, Adir turned around and saw the boy from before running towards him with a terrified expression, panting heavily as if he had been chased by something for a long time.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Hearing Adir's voice, the boy snapped out of his daze and emerged from his previous state of terror.

The burning sensation in his chest had subsided. Meeting the gazes of Adir and the others, he was still somewhat shaken and quickly made up an excuse: "Sir, I am an orphan and am almost starving. I would like to ask you to take me in."

As he spoke, he gritted his teeth, knelt down without hesitation, and the fear on his face vanished, replaced by a look of determination and sincerity.

"How dare you!!"

Before Adir could speak, the two guards beside him changed color and immediately reprimanded him, making the young man in front of him feel uneasy.

"interesting."

Adir waved to stop the guards beside him from scolding him, and looked at the boy in front of him with some surprise: "He's actually a knight's apprentice."

Previously, Adir hadn't paid close attention, but now that he was focused, the other person's physical data was immediately revealed under the chip's detection, clearly indicating that he was a knight apprentice.

Suddenly, he paused, a tremor stirring deep within his soul that moved him.

That was the power carried by the ability to travel through time, and now, sensing something, it began to react.

The source of this reaction was not far away.

Following his senses, Adir looked down and saw a purple stone.

The stone is round and entirely purple. It was the one the boy in front of him was holding earlier, and it fell down during his rapid run, landing at Adir's feet.

After glancing at the purple stone at his feet and hesitating for a moment, Adir bent down and picked it up.

A warm current quickly spread from my palms, traveling through my entire body and reaching deep within me.

In that instant, deep within Adir's soul, the power that had been accumulating suddenly increased, and it continued to grow continuously.

The power that had increased in just a short time was almost equal to the power Adir had accumulated over the past half month, causing Adir to be taken aback. He couldn't help but turn around and look at the boy in front of him: "What's your name?"

"Sol!"

Hearing Adir's words, the boy responded without hesitation, then slightly raised his head, looking at Adir with a somewhat uneasy expression.

"Thor, is that it? Not bad."

Adir nodded calmly, his expression revealing nothing of his thoughts.

But upon hearing his words, Thor felt a sudden tightness in his chest, almost thinking that he had revealed something.

Before he could think any further, Adir's voice came from in front of him again.

"Take him with you."

As if it were an occasional gesture, Adir spoke calmly, then turned to look ahead, seemingly not paying much attention to the boy in front of him.

Behind them, several guards exchanged glances, but in the end, they dared not disobey Adir's orders and took the boy named Thor with them.

Despite this, they still kept some of their attention on the boy in front of them as they walked, seemingly not lessening their suspicions.

Several days passed quickly.

One morning, in the spacious laboratory, Adir stood in front of the test bench, holding the purple stone in his hand.

"Just an ordinary stone?"

After examining the stone in his hand repeatedly, a hint of doubt flashed in Adir's eyes.

Over the past few days, he tested the purple stone several times, but no matter how he tested it, the result was always the same: it was just an ordinary stone, at most with a slightly purer color.

This conclusion surprised Adir: "It seems that the problem isn't with the materials themselves, but with some other reasons."

"It seems we still need to start with that boy."

The energy contained in this stone greatly helped Adir; the energy that this purple stone alone brought Adir was at least equivalent to the power Adir had accumulated in a year.

If the cause of the energy increase can be found, it will be of great help to Adir.

At least in the future, if I want to travel between worlds again, I won't have to wait for the energy to be fully charged.

Thinking of this, Adir couldn't help but look at his own physical data.

「姓名:阿帝尔.法库斯。力量：17.8。敏捷：18.7。体质：18.4。精神：20.1。精神力纯化度：7.9%。」

"Unknown energy data processing complete! Update data?" The voice of the chip's mechanical device sounded again in my mind.

"Has the update been completed?"

Hearing the chip's notification sound, Adir was somewhat surprised, but still said, "Update immediately!"

The next moment, streams of green data appeared before his eyes, converging into a new attribute panel.

「姓名:阿帝尔.法库斯。力量：17.8。敏捷：18.7。体质：18.4。精神：20.1。精神力纯化度：7.9%。未知能量：3.5。」

Looking at the brand-new data panel, Adir nodded.

The idea of ​​digitizing the energy needed to traverse the world is something Adir has always wanted to do, but things of the soul are too difficult to detect, and that power is too secretive, making it difficult for the chip to detect.

It wasn't until the power contained in the purple stone was detected by the chip that the data digitization of this power was completed, and it appeared on the attribute panel.

According to the standard set by Adir, one unit is the energy he has accumulated in a year. 3.5 units of energy represent the total power that a formal wizard-level soul can accumulate in three and a half years.

"This power can be used to travel between worlds, so let's name it World Energy."

After thinking for a moment, Adir muttered to himself.

As he gave the command, the unknown energy displayed on the attribute panel slowly faded away, and was replaced by the new attribute, Boundary Energy.

After doing all this, Adir got up and walked outside.

Outside the gate was a beautifully landscaped garden, where a boy named Thor was standing, occasionally pruning the plants with shears.

Compared to a few days ago, there was a noticeable change in him. His tattered linen robe had been replaced with a clean white robe, and he looked much neater and much more presentable than before.

Upon seeing Adir approaching from afar, Thor quickly put down his construction tools and respectfully addressed him: "Lord Adir!"

"Hmm, it seems you're recovering well."

Adir smiled, wearing a white and gold robe. His handsome appearance and gentle expression made him look very approachable, which naturally made people feel good about him.

Without waiting for Thor to speak, he handed over the purple stone in his hand: "This is yours, isn't it?"

"Yes." Thor instinctively took the purple stone that Adir handed him and nodded subconsciously.

"This stone is a bit strange."

Looking at the other person's appearance, Adir nodded: "Although it's just an ordinary stone, it has a special aura on it, making it a bit different from ordinary stones."

"Where did you get this stone from?" he asked the other person at the end, his eyes calm but his heart filled with concern.

Thor, standing in front of him, was taken aback. Upon hearing Adir's words, his eyes narrowed and his arm holding the stone trembled involuntarily.

Adir clearly observed this detail through the chip, but he didn't say anything. He just stared at Thor quietly, waiting for him to speak.

After a moment of silence, Thor finally spoke: "This stone is something I brought from my hometown. It was specially mined by the elders of my family as a sacrificial stone. It is usually used during sacrifices. It is said that carrying it on your person can bring you peace and protection, so I always carry one with me."

At this point, he couldn't help but touch his head: "As for why it's different from ordinary stones, it's probably because the environment in my hometown is too harsh."

"That's possible."

Adir nodded, seemingly accepting the idea, then smiled and said, "Once this war is over, if there's a chance, I can send you back to your hometown and let you study the environment there."

After saying that, he patted Thor on the shoulder and then left.

"call···"

After some time, Solton breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Adir leave.

"Lord Adir's authority is too great."

Standing there, reflecting on that feeling, Thor couldn't help but sigh.

Although Adir had always appeared very gentle and kind, Thor could sense a powerful force emanating from him, as well as a suffocating pressure that he had never felt before.

As a homeless person, he naturally understood what this situation meant.

This means that the opponent's strength is too terrifying, and the difference in the life levels between the two sides is too terrifying, which is why it brings such strong pressure.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party didn't harbor much malice, he probably wouldn't have dared to stand directly in front of Adir.

"That's good. At least with Lord Adir's presence, those things won't dare to come looking for me for the time being."

Thinking of this, Thor couldn't help but sigh.

He deftly finished trimming the flowers and plants in the area, put his tools aside, and then walked outside.

Upon reaching the gate, the guards standing there gave him a cold look before turning their gaze away and ignoring him.

He stepped through the gate and walked out familiarly.

Having just experienced a war with the lizardmen, the city reeks of blood. The inner city, where the nobles reside, is relatively unaffected, but the outer city is now filled with the stench of blood.

There were many corpses everywhere, beggars all around, and many people with purple skin walking around. The whole scene looked desolate.

As Thor walked quietly past the city gates and witnessed this scene, his heart sank.

He gave away the few copper coins he had to a few beggars, and soon walked to a corner of a street.

In a familiar place, he saw a person lying on the ground.

It was a person wearing a tattered red robe, lying on the ground, it was unknown whether he was still breathing.

Seeing this, Thor's heart tightened: "Eddie, are you still there?"

He shouted loudly, and at the same time, he quickly walked forward, walked to the red-robed man's side, and flipped the man's body over.

The moment he saw the man's face, his heart skipped a beat, his face turned pale, and he sat down on the ground.

In front of him, a black skeleton was quietly wrapped in a tattered red robe, looking extremely eerie.

In Thor's eyes, the black skeleton was still emitting faint black mist, which was spreading outwards. Much of it crawled up his body and spread over him.

"Eddie... even you..."

Looking at the corpse that had turned into a black skeleton before him, Thor gritted his teeth and said, "I can't die yet!"

He shoved the skeleton aside, then got up and ran off to the next spot without looking back.

He traveled quickly and soon arrived at the next location.

In another alley, several people lay on the ground, which pained him deeply.

He ran quickly to the group of people and looked at their faces.

There were three people in total. Two of them had already turned into black skeletons. The last person was also black-faced and was emitting black smoke in Thor's eyes, but he still had one last breath.

"Thor, you...you're still alive?"

A faint voice came from the last person's mouth.

Sensing the presence beside him, the man opened his eyes, his cloudy, lifeless eyes looking at Thor: "Never mind me... Yana... she's still alive."

As he spoke, his hand trembled as he pointed in a certain direction, as if he were using all his strength.

"Yana..."

Silently standing up, Thor stared blankly in the direction the other person was pointing. He quickly ran over and searched frantically.

Finally, in some corner, he found a girl who was on the verge of death.

The girl was also wearing a tattered red robe, and her whole body was filthy, emitting a foul stench.

But Thor didn't mind any of this. He simply hugged the girl and looked at her face.

On the girl's forehead, a black mark was clearly visible, exuding an aura of mystery and misfortune.

"Yana..."

Solton was stunned when he saw the mark on the girl's forehead.

"Brother Thor..."

Before her, barely opening her eyes, the girl saw Thor and uttered a weak, feeble voice, as if she had used up all her strength: "The mark on my body... is about to erupt."

"It's okay! You'll be alright!"

Listening to the girl's voice, Thor kept muttering to himself, not knowing who he was talking to.

"What should I do? What should I do!"

The question kept echoing in his mind. Finally, he hugged the girl in his arms tightly and ran outside like a madman.

"The mark is about to erupt! The only one who can save Yana now is..."

He ran frantically outside, and soon arrived at the gate of a manor.

"stop!"

Just as I reached the gate, a voice came quickly from the side.

At the gate, two armored guards stood coldly watching Thor and the girl he was holding: "You can only go in alone!"
