Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 517

Chapter 512 Curse

The peasants below didn’t know what was going on. They looked up and waited for the verdict.

Herman: [Master, is Little Claude really not dead? But why would he show up for these people who keep killing him?]

Thor was not in a hurry, “Because these people are not alive.”

Herman still didn’t understand.

But before Herman continued to ask questions, the village chief Big Claude, who was standing closest, sighed.

The sigh fell to the ground, and the other villagers froze for an instant.

It was as if time had stopped for everyone except Thor and the village chief.

“You are the first wizard who saw the truth right away. But no matter how you look at it, you are only at the first level. Are you hiding your strength?”

The man behind the scenes finally showed up.

Thor squatted down and looked down at Claude.

In his eyes, the tall red-haired middle-aged man was covered with scars.

The skin on his face was bumpy, as if it had been rolled in boiling water; there was a circle of circular scars on his neck, as if it had been cut off by a knife; the fingertips of both hands were severely worn, and the nails were not visible, as if they had scratched something hard.

There must be more terrible wounds on other parts of Claude’s body that were covered by his clothes.

This wizard Claude looked like he had been killed dozens or hundreds of times.

“My strength is not important.” Thor said slowly, “What’s important is that if you continue like this, you will be alienated.”

Claude was not surprised, and he was obviously very clear about his physical condition.

“Since you have solved the dilemma of this village, leave quickly. In a while, the rules here will be restarted.”

“I already know the basic formula. No matter how the situation changes, it will not deviate from its principles.” Thor said with a smile, “But you, are you willing to self-destruct in this chaotic reincarnation?”

“I didn’t expect that a great good man would come to the Borderlands.”

“I’m not a good man,” Thor denied, “I just like equal exchange.”

Claude smiled, and when he pulled the corners of his mouth, his mouth not only split up and down, but also split left and right.

“I roughly know what you want, but why do you think you can afford the price?”

“Just for this.”

A translucent tentacle swung out from Thor’s palm and suddenly rolled up the little girl who was fixed.

Claude glanced at them and did not move. “You can’t destroy them.”

He thought Thor was going to threaten him with the villagers, but Thor let go of the little girl the next second.

The little girl, who had originally revealed a strange smile, regained her calm demeanor, closed her eyes and lay on the ground as if she was asleep.

Claude changed his careless look and rushed straight to the little girl to check her condition.

Then he looked up in shock, “You can actually remove the pollution from her body, retain her body, and not cause serious damage?”

It’s like dropping a drop of ink into clear water, and then removing the ink without destroying the shape of the clear water.

Claude has a way to remove the ink from the clear water, but there is no way to remove the pollution from the spirit.

He put the little girl down and gently combed the girl’s bangs.

Morton: [It seems that he doesn’t act so indifferent to these villagers.]

Agu; [On the contrary, he cares about these villagers. Even though they are already a group of…living dead.]

An: [The master is so powerful. He saw Claude’s true thoughts at a glance.]

Herman: [Huh?]

In fact, Thor was also a little surprised to see that Claude cared so much about the little girl. He used soul fishing on the villagers, but only sucked away a lot of pollution from them.

In addition to testing Claude’s attitude, the main purpose was to make the other party realize that he could remove the pollution from his spirit.

But unexpectedly, Claude actually paid more attention to the pollution on the villagers, and didn’t even think of this method of removing pollution can be used on himself.

Putting down the little girl, Claude, who stood up again, no longer had the cold expression just now.

“What is the price to learn your method of removing pollution?”

“You can’t learn it.” Thor jumped down from the roof, “But you can use the principle of the formation of this village rule as a price in exchange for my help.”

“So this is what you want?” Claude was slightly stunned. He obviously misjudged Thor’s needs.

He looked down at the little girl, and then made a decision, “Regarding the reason for the formation of the rules, I can only say… I don’t know.”

Thor frowned, but he saw that Claude had something else to say, so he didn’t interrupt.

“I can see that you have just entered the Borderless Land for a short time, otherwise you wouldn’t ask this question. In the outside world, whether it is Stater or the other two continents, the formation of pollution always has its own regularity. Only the Borderless Land is different. Here, pollution always comes inexplicably. Sometimes you are still studying as usual, and the next second the potion in your hand suddenly pounces on your face and tries to get into your body. Even a part of your body may suddenly become diseased.”

When Claude said this, several villagers suddenly moved twice.

He took out a milky white shell wind chime from his arms, picked it up and shook it gently twice.

The other villagers who had already shown signs of waking up were fixed in place again.

“One day, this village suddenly had the rule of ‘killing must be fatal’. This phenomenon is not uncommon in the Borderland, but no one knows why, at least not yet.”

“However, although I don’t know the reason, I can tell you everything that happened here. Maybe one day, you can figure out the reason on your own.”

“Tell me about it.” Thor did not make a promise immediately.

“This is the village where I was born.” Claude lowered his eyes. “Originally it was a slightly larger village than this one. One day when I was fetching water from the river, a wizard suddenly appeared in front of me and said that I was qualified to be his apprentice.”

“He can control the small fish in the river to jump onto the shore by themselves, and he can also let the birds in the sky help me carry buckets. I thought it was very magical, so I agreed. Unexpectedly, when I took him back to see my brother, my brother would not agree at all. He even took out all the coins in the house, hoping that the wizard would let me go.”

“I was only ten years old at the time and did not understand what my brother meant. I thought he was afraid that if I left, the family would have one less person to work, and he was very unhappy. So when the wizard asked me for the second time in front of my brother if I wanted to be his apprentice, I still said yes. And then…” “

Then, the wizard killed my brother.”

Sol supported his chin, “It was also expected.”

“I didn’t react at all at that time. I only remembered to cry after I was taken away. The wizard wanted to teach me runes, but I was so sad and scared that I couldn’t learn it. He asked me if I thought he was a bad person. Although I didn’t dare to admit it, I really thought so in my heart. Then he took me back to the village.”

“But he didn’t do that to send me back. He wanted to let me know that there are no good people in this village either.”

Hearing this, Thor looked at the villagers on the ground with strange expressions, and suddenly guessed something.

Claude continued, “He told me that killing is actually a very common thing. I didn’t believe it, so he took me to fly into the air. Then I saw with my own eyes that the usually kind farmer would hide a corpse in the haystack and bring it home every day when he went out. The originally honest peasant woman would also take advantage of the farmer’s absence to pull other men into the room. Some of these men left, and some went into the stove. My favorite little sister at the time was stuffed into a tree hole by her mother, and her mother still called her home for dinner as usual every day…”

“Seeing all this, my fear turned into numbness, so I followed the wizard back to study honestly. It was not until I became a third-level apprentice that I suddenly realized. The village where I was born suddenly became so weird, in fact, it was because the wizard cast a curse.”
