Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 297

Chapter 296 Old Things

“Xiao Zao…was it also planted by Madam Youla?”

Xiao Zao seemed to hear Thor calling it, and slowly emerged from the back of his neck, looking left and right, and found that Thor was just standing there, as if in a daze, so he turned to Thor and stuck out his tongue at him.

Thor quickly raised his hand, pinched Xiao Zao’s upper and lower jaws, and accurately clamped his tongue in his mouth. He watched the black tongue twitching, and this time he chuckled and let go of Xiao Zao.

Xiao Zao’s grimace was interrupted by force, and was played by Thor in reverse, so he shrank back angrily. Before shrinking back, he did not forget to distance himself and stuck out his tongue at Thor again.

While playing with Xiao Zao, An told Thor: The Soul Devouring Demon Swamp is essentially a demonic creature with earth attributes. It is not quite accurate to say “planted”, but it was indeed one of the “dowry” brought by Madam Youla.

Agu, who used to be a librarian, came out to testify.

Agu: [It is indeed such a master. Soon after Madam Youla came to the wizard tower, she opened an underground laboratory and cultivated many magical creatures, but most of them failed to be cultivated successfully. Later, after Madam Youla died, the underground laboratory was abandoned. 】

An was not willing to be outdone and turned the page of Agu’s book.

An: [Master, I was still a living apprentice at that time, and I happened to experience the dark period when Madam Youla died. That day, the tower master suddenly lost his temper…hiss…】

Sol saw that An was still afraid when he recalled.

An: [Many people died that day. There were wizards from the Principality of Kma, and some wizard apprentices…We have never seen the tower master lose his temper so much. It was not until the evening that I heard that someone saw the tower master holding Madam Youla out of the underground laboratory. 】

An: [But Madam Youla’s head was gone. The tower master was holding only a headless corpse. Since then, the underground laboratory has been abandoned. 】

Thor touched his chin and suddenly said, “Xiao Zao had been staying in the underground laboratory before, and has stayed there since the laboratory was abandoned. Do you think it knows how Mrs. Youla died?”

The topic has shifted from whether Mrs. Youla deliberately pitted Thor to the cause of her death.

But this is not off topic.

If you know the cause of Mrs. Youla’s death, maybe you can understand what she wants to do now.

Maybe you can also know what Gorza wants to do.

Thor knew that his remaining ability to “observe history” would not last for a few days.

He originally wanted to use the last bit of ability on the diary. Later, he considered using it on the close Xiao Zao.

Now, after suspecting that Xiao Zao might know the cause of Youla’s death, Thor made up his mind to observe Xiao Zao once he had cleaned up the Black Castle!

Anyway, if that little ability to “observe history” is used on the diary again, he might not see anything.

Thor has given up the history of observing the diary for the third time.

But in addition to observing Xiao Zao’s history, Thor has another way to understand the reason for the sneak attack tonight.

“We have already welcomed the first guest tonight, and we have captured the second guest. I just don’t know if there will be a third guest.”

Thor carried the body of the land boat attacker, walked down the underground wine cellar step by step, and then entered the underground passage leading to the underground rhizome of the devil vine.

[We meet again, Lord Thor.]

The devil vine greeted Thor as soon as it felt Thor approaching.

At the same time, black tentacles as thick as thighs grew on the wet and muddy ground. They swayed, as if greeting Thor.

“Devil vine, how many years have you been under the Black Castle?”

[My concept of time is not that clear.]

“Then do you know how the Black Castle communicates with the Wizard Tower?”

[I’m sorry, I don’t know.]

Thor was not disappointed. He threw the body of the attacker on the ground and leaned against the wall casually.

He ordered in his heart: “Diary, let the black page of the attacker come out.”

The diary unfolded in his spirit body and turned to the fifth black page.

“Who are you and what’s your name?”

[My name is Cadis, and I am a third-level wizard apprentice of Land Boat. What is this place? Strange, why do I have no impression of how I got in. ]

“What is your purpose here.” Thor had no intention of keeping Cadis.

Maintaining these consciousnesses requires Thor to provide mental power.

If the consciousness in the black pages is not asked questions, they can be maintained for a longer time. But if there is no way to ask questions, why does Thor need to keep an unimportant consciousness?

Moreover, Cadis’s function is basically the same as Herman’s. But obviously Herman, who has become the captain of the frigate, is more valuable, and Herman knows more information.

[I took over the task of my mentor and came here to mark a quasi-third-level apprentice named Thor. But my task seems to have failed. How can I explain to my mentor when I go back? 】

“A quasi… third-level apprentice?” Thor turned his wrist, “Not many people know this news. Madam Youla is one, and Grand Duke Kira should be able to see it. Those third-level wizard apprentices in the Principality of Kerma may have also discovered it.”

After all, third-level apprentices are different from second-level apprentices. They not only have locators, but they can also perfectly combine the locators with their own spiritual bodies.

The stability of their spiritual bodies is much stronger than that of ordinary second-level apprentices.

After thinking about it, Thor continued to ask: “Do you know why you want to mark Thor?”

[The mentor said I don’t need to know the reason. ]

“Is it really a cannon fodder? You don’t even know the purpose of the action. So how do you mark it?”

[Let the seeds of the Lost Soul Flower come into contact with his spiritual body. ]

“After planting the mark, did your mentor tell you what to do after the mission is successful?”

[The mentor said that if my mission is successful, leave a mark at the entrance of the Black Castle Forest. At that time, someone else will naturally come to take over the mark. Strange, I clearly planted the mark, why did the mark fail later? Could it be that the energy of the seed has been exhausted? 】

Is there actually a third person?

But this time the diary did not remind him.

However, Thor soon figured it out.

In order to lead out the third person, he needs to be marked by the seed. But with the diary, the mark obviously cannot be preserved. In other words, the mark will not be successful, and the third person will probably not appear anyway.

But because Thor can learn the whole story from Cadis, even if the third person does not appear, it will not lead to a very bad direction.

Thinking of this, Thor finally felt relieved.

He has not yet conducted statistics and experiments on the new type of reminders in the diary, and he does not know what kind of adverse consequences will eventually cause the diary to prompt.

It is very likely that it will lead to death after a longer period of time. However, this longer period of time is only longer than the crisis that would come within a few minutes before.

Thor thinks that based on the previous characteristics of the diary, the crisis will evolve from a few minutes to a few hours at most.

“If the mark is taken over by someone, what might he do?” Thor suppressed the idea of starting to study now and continued to “interrogate”.

【… I don’t know. This is also the first time I have taken over the seeds of the Lost Soul Flower. I used to be just a third-level apprentice with the lowest status, and was recently promoted by my mentor.】

Sol rubbed his forehead.

“How come this Caddis doesn’t know anything? Why did his mentor promote him? To be a cannon fodder?”

I actually forgot to post it last night!!!

I really didn’t develop the habit of updating at night, and went straight to bed…
