Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 313
Chapter 312 Container
The circular laboratory on the 20th floor is the largest laboratory in the entire wizard tower.
Every mentor has a place here.
Thor is the only apprentice allowed to appear here.
According to mentor Kaz, Heywood and Kongsha also had a place here, but they soon lost their qualifications and were kicked out of the 20th floor.
The only apprentice who was not kicked out was Ivan, but he played too much and his body disappeared completely. Only a lost soul was left, wandering in the dormitory area every night, looking for his own body.
After hearing mentor Kaz’s description of Ivan, Thor immediately remembered the gray shadow he had met during his several night tours of the wizard tower.
Mentor Kaz said with a sigh: “You must never use yourself for experiments casually.”
But as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Thor, who was gray-skinned and nodded in agreement.
Kaz: “…”
Some rules don’t seem to apply to everyone.
Finally, mentor Kaz told Thor how to use some facilities in the circular laboratory and the precautions, and left him here alone.
Thor carefully turned around in the laboratory.
Although this place is called a laboratory, it has become a place for displaying experimental results because it is a place used by all instructors and experimental participants.
Experiments with less danger or preliminary steps are never carried out here.
This is not a rule, but a convention.
If Thor wants to start research here on his own, no one will stop him.
After all, no one usually shows up here.
Instructor Katz said that he can choose to follow a certain instructor to conduct experiments, or he can set up a project independently. But he doesn’t need to rush. He can first look at the experimental records here, especially those that are considered failed and unnecessary for research.
So as to avoid wasting time on the road that his predecessors have walked.
As for whether Thor will see some dangerous knowledge-it’s already level three, does he still need the instructor to walk hand in hand?
After Instructor Katz left, Thor was not in a hurry to look at the experimental records and corresponding books.
He was very interested in the rows of sarcophagi in the room.
Some of the coffin lids were open, some were half-open, and some were not open. It was definitely not entirely for the need of safekeeping.
On the side of each sarcophagus, a small booklet was tied with a hemp rope. This was obviously used to record information about the sarcophagus.
Thor came to the nearest sealed sarcophagus and squatted down to check.
The booklet recorded the number.
Container No. 1342, the sarcophagus cannot be opened without permission. Non-humanoid, unstable form of existence, experiment terminated. For specific information, see: 19th floor, *Study Room, *Bookshelf**. Information update time: January 1, 311.
Thor flipped back and saw records of 1342’s status at different times.
The record date on the bottom page is June 9, 310.
Then the frequency of information updates began to increase, and in July 310, it was even updated once a day. But after entering August, the update speed dropped suddenly, and later it was even updated once a month.
Until January 1, 311, the experiment was terminated.
From the above records, Thor could imagine that the original experimenters started the experiment with great expectations and enthusiasm, and they might have thought that success was expected halfway through. But in the end, it still failed. So he racked his brains, thinking about what went wrong and constantly improving it. However, repeated failures gradually made the experimenters realize that there might be something wrong with their direction, or that a crucial node had not been broken.
In short, the experiment was terminated.
The only good news is that the experiment was suspended, not terminated.
Sol stood up. Although he was a little curious about the container in the sarcophagus, he had no intention of opening it rashly.
The record clearly stated that the state was unstable. If the contents were broken after opening, it would ruin the work that the experimenter had spent so much effort on. It would also be a waste of the two words “suspended” that were written with great difficulty.
Sol browsed some records hanging next to the sarcophagus and roughly summarized a pattern.
All the completely closed sarcophagi here are containers for suspending experiments – I think those that were terminated don’t even have the qualifications to stay in this laboratory.
The sarcophagi with only a gap are mostly unstable or dangerous containers.
Half-open or fully open containers are containers that have been used for at least a month.
As long as the lid of the sarcophagus is open, it means that the experiment is still going on.
But Sol scanned the entire room, and with his strong mental power, he immediately calculated the number of all the unsealed sarcophagi.
Not many, 12.
And the completely closed ones, a total of 117.
Next, Sol returned to the circular experimental table in the center of the laboratory.
This circular lab table is obviously also for multiple people to use together. The desktop is made up of polygons. If necessary, any polygon can be moved in front of you.
There is also a pipe in the middle of the lab table that goes straight to the roof. This pipe can directly transport the required materials – including spirits.
Sol originally thought that this was some modern mechanical structure, but when he opened the door of the pipe, he saw the slender arms that once passionately pursued him.
These arms are different from the ones he saw outside the bronze door on the first floor of the East Tower. They are quietly and honestly shrinking in the pipe.
Sol doesn’t know if these arms still remember him, but he remembers them very clearly.
When he traded candles with Ferguson, and when the ugly woman behind Heywood pulled out his soul, these slender arms like noodles entangled him a lot.
“Why are you so honest now?” Sol held his chin, “Is it because this is not other places in the East Tower? Because this is the tower master’s laboratory?”
These arms are not as crazy and chaotic as they appear. At least they know how to restrain themselves when facing the tower master.
Although it is meaningless to argue with a group of chaotic broken spirits…
“Bang!” Thor closed the pipe door with a palm.
“Sooner or later, I will use you for experiments!”
Now Thor has almost walked around the entire laboratory. Occasionally, the diary will appear to remind him not to touch a few places.
Of course, with Thor’s current eyesight, he can also distinguish dangers.
“Next, we need to determine the research direction.” Thor walked back to the bronze door and pressed his hands on the left and right doors like Teacher Kaz. “I already have an idea, I wonder if it is feasible.”
Thinking in his heart, he pushed open the door on the 20th floor. Then he waited for a while, listened to the sound behind the door disappear, and then stepped out.
However, when he took a step out, the light in front of him suddenly became dim.
Thor turned around instantly and found that the bronze door behind him had been closed, but the walls on both sides of the door were not the same as the walls on the 20th floor of the East Tower.
The slight scratches on the wall told Thor that this was not the 20th floor of the East Tower.
He looked back at the dark corridor behind him again, and finally realized that he had passed through the bronze door on the 20th floor and arrived outside the bronze door on the first floor of the East Tower!
