Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 488

Chapter 485 Bargaining

The cost of violating the secret contract is terrible, so if you want to sign this contract, you must avoid language traps.

After referring to the diary’s opinion – no opinion – Thor decided to participate in Char’s action.

And seeing that Thor agreed to sign the contract, Julie hesitated for a while and expressed her willingness to participate.

In general, the interests between the three of them and Baidong Academy are not close.

Although Julie and Xia are both honorary tutors of Baidong Academy, they do not have any research projects or promotion needs that require support from Baidong Academy, so they can put more energy on the task of being sweepers.

This is actually the fundamental reason why Xia only summoned them.

This is what Thor figured out when he and Xia began to discuss the content of the contract.

As for Jonah, who didn’t come today.

Although he taught students at the academy, it can be seen from the fact that he didn’t care where he would do experiments that his research mostly relied on himself and the magic crystal.

So Xia also wanted to call Jonah today.

It’s a pity that the latter didn’t come for some reason.

Several people spent some time to determine the content of the contract.

You can’t not make restrictions, but you can’t make too many restrictions, which will lead to the violation of the contract if you are not careful.

When the content of the contract was decided and Thor and the other two signed their names on it, they really discussed the detailed plan to find the source of pollution. After

the preliminary plan was made, Char sent the two back to his villa. Then he watched them leave.

Thor walked out of the academy, but did not go home immediately. After wandering on the street for a while, he returned to Char’s villa.

Char opened the door and found that it was Thor. He was not very surprised, but a little helpless.

“Julie just left, and you came right after. I knew you were interested in that thing, but I really won’t sell it.”

Thor smiled and said, “I just came here because I thought Julie should have left.”

Char was stunned and curled his lips, “So I said Julie was too stupid, and her actions were easily calculated by a newcomer.”

“You can listen to my offer. Even if you are not satisfied, I can check your dream again for free.”

“No, I have my own way to make sure that the evil spirit has left.” Although he said this, Char still opened the door and let Thor in.

The two stood in the living room.

“Julie’s strength is average, but she became a formal wizard twenty years earlier than you, so she still has some good things in her hands. But I became a formal wizard ten years earlier than her, so I don’t like any of Julie’s conditions. But Thor, you are from the Wizard Tower, and your mentor is now a third-level… So I want to hear what you have to exchange.”

Sure enough, the background of the Wizard Tower is still feared and envied.

However, although Thor is very interested in the space teleportation array, he will not lose his mind.

“Before I quote, I need to know whether your space teleportation array has completely mastered the formula for constructing the array, or just used some kind of witchcraft props to directly arrange the array at the designated location?”

Xia Ya was so surprised when he heard this.

“Sometimes I really doubt whether you have set up a monitoring technique here?” Xia Ya took two steps back and looked at the blind spots in the room, “Or did you deliberately leave something in my house?”

“Of course not.” Thor secretly hooked his fingers and asked Penny, who was flying around the room, to return to her spiritual body, “This is just a reasonable guess.”

Xia Ya didn’t quite believe it, and still looked up and searched around him.

But of course he couldn’t find anything.

“Well, it’s the second one. I got a set of witchcraft scrolls with this magic circle drawn on them. I can place the space teleportation magic circle at the required location.”

It was indeed the case.

The reason why Thor had the above guess was that when he observed the witchcraft magic circle that the wizard Char had arranged, he found that the other party’s magic circle talent was not particularly outstanding.

When Thor was dreaming, Char controlled his magic circle, and Thor was confident that he could easily break it. It would be difficult for Char to construct the space teleportation magic circle by himself.

So Thor guessed that there might be other people or other things who helped Char to construct the magic circle.

And with the character of the wizard Char, he should not let others know his escape route.

“Okay, you know what you want to know. So what do you want to use to exchange the magic circle with me?”

“Unless necessary, wizard Xia always acts alone, right?” Thor suddenly said something that seemed irrelevant.

Xia was stunned, frowned and said impatiently: “Of course, I can’t be sure whether my companions will betray me.”

“But there are actually many inconveniences in acting alone, and there are also some simple but risky actions that you need to do by yourself. In this case, you may just give up, resulting in a direct loss of possible benefits.”

Xia said indifferently: “Compared with your life, a little benefit is nothing.”

“But if there is a way for you to completely control a person to do things for you, control his life and death, and don’t have to worry about betrayal, isn’t it better? He can even help you resist danger.”

Xia’s eyes lit up a little bit, “You, do you know any kind of mind control?”

“The magic of controlling people’s hearts is at least something that a second-level wizard can do. But there are parasitic magic similar to mine, which can make the parasitized person completely listen to your command, and life and death are also in your hands.”

Xia was obviously moved, his hand on his chin, thinking seriously.

“I know that Shaar used to avoid danger, but you can really try to take the initiative to test the danger, and then consider whether to avoid it or solve the problem.”

“Shaar, we are wizards. If wizards only think about avoiding, they will sooner or later be attacked by the backlash of knowledge.” Thor said in a low voice.

In the wizard world, danger is always hidden in the unknown. If you just stand still, you will be dragged into the abyss of danger by an invisible hand.

If you only think about safety, don’t become a wizard.

This sentence applies to wizard apprentices and formal wizards.

After Thor persuaded him a few more times, Shaar finally agreed to the exchange.

However, his exchange condition was…

“You give me the parasitic witchcraft, and I will set up a space teleportation array at the place you specify.”

The smile on Thor’s face disappeared, “Do you think that if I tell you where to set up the array, this array can still play a concealing role?”

“But I can’t give you the scroll directly. Compared with taking the initiative to attack, I would rather master the ability to escape!” Shaar puffed out his chest and did not intend to give in.

“It seems there is no room for negotiation.” Thor turned around and made a move to go out.

“Wait a minute!” But Char stopped Thor.

He hesitated for a moment and came up with a new idea.

“In addition to setting up a teleportation array for you, I can lend you the scroll for three hours to copy.”

Thor asked directly, “Is there a concealing array on the scroll?”

“Yes, but if you have a strong talent for arrays, you can calculate the original array by peeling off the concealing array yourself.”

Thor sneered, “It’s easy to say, but it’s hard to even accurately copy it in three hours. You have to lend it to me for at least three days.”

“That won’t work!” Char raised his voice, but immediately lowered it, “At most, at most one day, and you can only copy it from me. You don’t have to talk about conditions, just say whether you agree or not?”

Thor thought about it for three minutes this time, “If the array is drawn incorrectly, if I go in and teleport, will I die?”

Char nodded, “Of course, there is a high probability that it will be torn apart by the space rift, and a small probability that it will fall into an unknown place, and it is almost impossible to reach the other end.”

“It’s really dangerous.” Thor lowered his head, “Okay, I agree, I’ll start transcribing now.”

Xia’s muscles twitched, suppressing the corners of his mouth that were about to rise, “Well, let’s go to the room we went to last time. I’ll stand in the defense array and open the scroll. You can only observe from the outside, and you can’t come in, otherwise I’ll kick you out of the room.”

“Humph!” Thor was a little dissatisfied and snorted.

But his attention was on the diary in his spiritual body.

“Diary man, I haven’t bothered you for a long time. But you see, the space teleportation array is really too dangerous. You don’t want me to be torn apart… during the teleportation, right?”

I hope my daily routine can return to normal.
