Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 440
Chapter 437 Elf Skin and Black Iron Coffin (I)
“Thor?” A familiar voice called him.
Thor turned around and found that it was Master Kaz.
The wound on Kaz’s neck had completely healed, but he still looked pale and tired, and his mental state was especially bad.
“Master Kaz.”
Kaz looked at Thor, looking him up and down, just like when he first met him.
“Alas, who would have thought that you would be the first apprentice to become a formal wizard?” Kaz shook his head again, “Maybe I am not suitable to be a mentor.”
“Master Kaz?” Thor stepped forward and wanted to support the other party. He always knew that Master Kaz looked old, but when he saw him again today, he suddenly felt that his heart was also very tired.
“I’m fine.” Kaz saw that Thor was worried about him, waved his hand, and looked at the ruined wizard tower. “I used to think that even if some of the ways of the Gorza Tower Master were indeed embarrassing, as long as we endured for a while and completed the resurrection experiment, we would be able to live well in the end. But I still underestimated their greed and repression. The firewood eventually turned into an uncontrollable fire, and the funny thing is that they only burned themselves to ashes in the end.”
Kaz looked at Thor again, endured it, and finally whispered: “The tower master still wants to resurrect Yula, he has not really given up, you have to be careful. Maybe he will be grateful for your help now, but if one day, he still can’t achieve his goal, he may still target you again.”
“I… understand, thank you, mentor Kaz.”
Thor understood Kaz’s concerns.
Thor once thought that as long as he completed the resurrection experiment, Gorza would achieve his goal, but now it seems that he wants to resurrect Yula, not to resurrect his beloved wife.
Because if the tower master really likes Yula, he will not be indifferent to seeing her in such pain.
Thor thought about the words “Kill me” he had heard from the puppet three years ago, and he could understand that the real Yula could not bear the pain of resurrection.
At this time, Gorza’s usual gentle treatment became a suffocating cage.
While the two were talking, apprentices came from the distant forest one after another.
There were not many people, less than ten.
Thor saw a few familiar faces among them, including George, his former male servant companion, and Chlom, who liked to dance with corpses – he even held a complete female corpse in his arms.
These apprentices are often not particularly powerful apprentices, or they are lone rangers like Chlom.
They originally had little presence in the wizard tower, but they became the group with the most survivors.
Of course, some second- and third-level apprentices have not returned.
These people seemed to regard Mentor Kaz as the backbone, and they surrounded him in panic. Only George greeted Thor carefully.
Since becoming a wizard apprentice, he finally understood the gap between himself and Thor. At the same time, he also realized that being a wizard is not a safe identity. Sometimes, the terror becomes more dangerous as the strength grows.
This led to him not daring to get too close to Thor.
Because the breath of the other party would make him tremble.
“Ah! It’s Lord Thor!” George had a thumb-sized fleshy ball on his left neck, and a naive boy’s voice came out of it.
“Shh!” George quickly covered the fleshy tumor.
Thor nodded to him, “Is that your brother?”
George bowed and said, “Yes, he said he also wanted a head, so I wanted to grow a human face tumor.”
“You’re messing around!” Kaz scolded from the side, “Human face tumors are very easy to be alienated and even contaminate yourself. Who taught you to do this?”
George was dumbfounded and said the name of a third-level apprentice, only to find that the other party had died in the wizard tower.
“Really!” Kaz sighed, “I used to focus on the resurrection experiment, but now I don’t have to do the experiment, so I’ll discipline you idiots.”
For some reason, after saying this, the decadent atmosphere of Kaz’s twilight years suddenly weakened a lot.
Seeing Instructor Kaz scolding the incompetent apprentices one by one, Thor couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.
When the sun set, Kaz and others lit a bonfire beside the ruins.
With the little light, Kaz and other apprentices who came back one after another began to clean up the ruins of the wizard tower.
Thor was also inside, looking for the first warehouse. Because in addition to some materials he left there, Hayden was still lying in the sarcophagus!
Fortunately, although the wizard tower collapsed, it was mainly the upper part that was broken into pieces, and the lower part from the tenth floor was broken horizontally and fell to the ground.
The lower part of the fourth floor was even relatively well preserved.
However, even so, most of the butlers and servants did not survive.
The collapse of the wizard tower triggered a chain reaction of some witchcraft materials. Even if these witchcraft materials are ordinary, they are very dangerous to non-wizards, so many people were already dead and unrecognizable when they were dug out.
In order to recover as many assets as possible that Gorza didn’t want, Kaz took the remaining apprentices and servants to clean up the ruins, and finally they really picked up a lot of good things.
However, Thor noticed that the butler who was more elusive and commanded all the butlers was not here.
There was neither a corpse nor among the survivors.
“Could he have been taken away by Gorza?” Thor thought secretly.
In the early morning of the next day, Kaz found Thor again.
“We have basically cleaned up the ruins.” Kaz smiled bitterly, “As a result, I found that the items in the rooms above the 19th floor are basically gone. I guess they were taken away by Gorza. Haha, I also wanted to see the tower owner’s collection of books, but it seems that I don’t have this luck. How is your side?”
The first floor of the East Tower was tacitly owned by Thor, and no one dared to come and steal, even Kaz deliberately did not approach.
“After the wizard tower collapsed, the bronze gate also lost its activity. Some of the materials in the first warehouse were not contaminated. I picked a little and left the rest for you.”
Kaz did not refuse. The irresponsible tower master patted his butt and ran away. If he still wanted to take care of the surviving apprentices, he must have enough supplies.
“Second warehouse…”
“Take everything you can from the second warehouse. The materials there are relatively dangerous. Level 3 apprentices cannot use them casually.”
Thor was tempted, but he really didn’t have such a big backpack. Even the compressed bag only had a few cubic meters of space, which couldn’t fit a warehouse.
“The bodies in the second warehouse have all rotted. There are still many materials that rely on interlayers to separate and preserve. When I went there, some of the materials were fighting, and some were also lost.” Thor described with a smile.
“I still took some away. There are still a lot of them, so I’ll leave them to you, mentor.”
“That’s good. It’s dangerous for you to take them all.” Kaz accepted it again, and after a moment he asked again, “Thor, are you… leaving?”
“Yeah.” Thor did not deny it.
“You, did you take all the ghosts in the mezzanine?”
Thor was stunned. He didn’t expect that Teacher Kaz could find out. He admitted directly, “Yes, Teacher Gorza should have planned from the beginning that he would leave after the experiment was successful, so he said that he would leave the wizard tower to me… But now the existing wizard tower has collapsed. However, Gorza still gave me something very important. Those ghost fragments are also in it.”
Kaz opened his mouth. He seemed very interested, but thought about it and didn’t ask.
“Well, young man, it’s time to go out and explore. After cleaning up here, I plan to take the apprentices who are willing to go with me to the Principality of Kerma.”
Thor was stunned. He didn’t expect Kaz to leave too.
“Aren’t you going to rebuild the wizard tower here?”
Kaz smiled and waved his hands. “How can I be qualified to build a wizard tower? Besides, this place was allocated to Lord Gorza by the Principality of Kema. I can’t control it.”
“There are also some small wizard organizations in the Principality of Kema. I plan to find a suitable residence and settle there. By the way, the name of the organization is the Dead Garden. If you go to the Principality of Kema in the future, you can go and have a look.”
In the words of Teacher Kaz, he seemed to have established the organization of the Dead Garden and carried it forward.
Suddenly, a silver butterfly came into Thor’s eyes, and then Penny’s lively baby voice came.
“Brother Thor, Keli is awake.”
Thor was startled at first, then smiled happily, and said goodbye to Kaz.
“Teacher Kaz, Keli is awake, I’ll go and have a look first.”
“Go, go!” Kaz waved his hand hurriedly.
Thor followed the nightmare butterfly and jumped directly from the original small garden into a big pit. Before falling to the bottom of the pit, a black tentacle as thick as a thigh caught him from below.
Thor trotted over and saw Senior Byron was there too.
The two nodded, and Thor rushed to the metal-clad Keli.
“Keli, are you awake?”
Keli’s voice was muted because of the metal armor.
“Help me open a few holes, I’m almost suffocating!”
It’s the last day of this month, I don’t think it’s too much to ask for 300 monthly tickets~
