Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 536

Chapter 531 Dream Bell Ringing
There is no concept of country in the Borderless Land.
There are not even large gathering places.
The denser the population, the more likely it is that large-scale chaos will break out.
The most common power structure here is a high-level ruling over lower-level wizards or apprentices.
Some forces will also support a group of ordinary people to do the simplest and inefficient chores. Those
with strong strength and no shortage of resources will also drive some puppets, spirits, low-intelligence monsters, etc.
At the same time, the leaders of these places usually nominally pledge allegiance to higher-level wizards, pay tribute to some resources and complete some orders on weekdays in exchange for limited resources and shelter in times of crisis.
Of course, there are also those who claim to be stronger and do not surrender to anyone.
They are generally strong lone rangers who rely on themselves to struggle to survive in the Borderless Land and seek opportunities for promotion.
There lives such a first-level wizard named Dodge on the island in the middle of the Rhine Lake.
First-level wizards are not strong in the Borderless Land.
But the rules of the Borderless Land are chaotic. If a first-level wizard can fully adapt to the local rule power, he may be more powerful than a second-level wizard here.
On this day, Thor, wearing a cloak that had been dyed gray by the wind and sand, stood on a small hill and looked ahead.
In the distance, a fairly wide lake could be vaguely seen, but most of it was shrouded in thick gray fog.
The coachman, Mash, who had lost his car, followed him with a huge suitcase on his back.
Because they had lost their means of transportation and it was difficult to travel in the Borderless Land, they walked for two months from the old witch’s rat hole to their destination, the Rhine Lake.
“The Rhine Lake is also called the Dead Soul Lake here. It is said to be the only large lake in the Borderless Land. There is an island in the middle of the lake with rich resources, but because of the special rules of this area, only a first-level wizard who majored in dark attributes settled here.”
Thor communicated with several consciousnesses in the diary in his mind.
Agu: [This wizard is very powerful. He has a high status here and his strength can be greatly increased. If so, will he be willing to give this place to the owner? ]
An: [If you don’t agree, just kill him. 】
Sol shook his head, “If possible, I would rather use knowledge and resources to solve the problem.”
Sol did not reject killing, but he was unwilling to use killing as the first choice to solve the problem.
Although it should be difficult to convince the Dodge Wizard, Sol felt that he had a strong capital in the dark attribute field, especially in the soul, and might be able to pay the price that the other party was interested in.
But before entering the island in the middle of the Rhine Lake, Sol still needed to wait for a message.
After a while, a little person wearing a pocket cloak and only three heads of body flew out of the mist and landed in front of him.
She was surrounded by a lot of clouds and mist, looking like a dark cloud.
The Rhine Lake has been shrouded in thick fog for many years, and it is very concealed to act with this dark cloud.
“I checked it out, you are lucky, he did not open the closed magic circle.”
This person who looks only the size of a two-year-old child is the old witch.
After two months of growth, the old witch has changed from a deformed baby to a little girl. The body is no longer so deformed.
But her face is still the face of the old witch, and her mouth can still grin to the roots of her ears.
Thor nodded and gathered his cloak. “Then let’s go visit this Dodge Wizard.”
The old witch curled her lips. “When you get enough souls, remember to absorb the remaining black tide from me as soon as possible. I dare not meditate with this thing on me!” The
old witch was helpless.
These days, whenever she meditated, she would hear the sound of water drops. The sound of water drops became louder and louder, and sometimes she felt that she was about to turn into a water drop.
Thor didn’t speak. He slowly walked to the edge of the Rhine Lake and felt the cool air by the lake.
“The temperature here is very low. The closer to the lake, the lower the temperature.”
Thor squatted down, and a corner of his robe fell into the shallow water, and a layer of white frost immediately formed.
He lifted the corner of his robe and shook it to let the thin ice on it fall off.
At this time, he suddenly saw something in his peripheral vision. Looking forward, he saw ripples in the dark lake water. After the ripples, some vague white shadows appeared under the water.
Those white shadows were slowly approaching the water surface, and their appearance gradually became clear.
Those were confused faces with wide-open eyes, with only whites of the eyes but no pupils.
There are not only people here, but also faces of other races.
Some are human-like, while others are more like beasts.
They look at Thor across the water, just as Thor looks at them across the water.
Hermann: [So many people!]
Thor slowly stood up.
His sight gradually moved farther and farther, penetrating the fog and seeing a wider world.
Above was a gray sky, and below was a bottomless lake.
Under the lake, everywhere you looked, there were numb faces.
They were separated from Thor by a lake, and it seemed like a world.
Suddenly, a wave of water rippled from the center of the lake.
After the ripples, all the faces disappeared, and everything seemed like an illusion.
“Today is not the day for Rhine Lake to trade with foreign countries. However, I will not let my friends who have come from afar return empty-handed.”
A figure broke through the fog and appeared in front of Thor.
The man was a middle-aged man with gray sideburns and beard. He looked kind, not like a wizard, but like a simple scholar.
With his hands behind his back, he stood on a huge pure white feather, slowly floating over, emitting a stable wave of magic.
He was a first-level wizard.
“Are you Wizard Dodge?” Thor bowed slightly and nodded.
The man smiled, picked up the monocle pinned on his collar and looked at Thor, a little surprised, “It’s a completely unfamiliar new face, the bones look very fresh, you are less than eighteen years old, right?”
Although the wizard looked kind, he completely ignored Thor’s greetings and asked new questions on his own.
He was not as easy to get along with as he seemed.
Thor blinked, understood in his heart, and didn’t care, “Yes, my name is Thor, I just turned sixteen. I came to visit you and wanted to make a deal with you.”
Thor acquiesced that the other party was Wizard Dodge.
“Everyone who comes here wants to make a deal with me.” Dodge did not deny it, “I like to make deals with everyone. But many people can’t pay enough. I can only regretfully give them some small gifts, and then reluctantly ask them to leave.”
Thor smiled, “That’s great, I like to trade too.”
He raised his right hand, palm facing up.
A few seconds later, a subcutaneous bulge moved from the wrist of the cuff to the palm.
Then the skin cracked, and a transparent irregular stone with a trace of bright red blood squeezed out of his palm.
The expression on Dodge’s face froze instantly. He stared at the transparent stone in Thor’s hand through the monocle. After three breaths, he slowly said, “Cryptocrystalline.”
Thor nodded. He ignored the equally burning gaze from the old witch beside him and Penny’s crazy screams in his ears.
“No, no, brother Thor, don’t give the cryptocrystalline to others!”
Seeing that Thor was indifferent, the nightmare butterfly that had been hiding in the pages of the diary since entering the Borderless Land finally couldn’t help it, and drilled out and blocked Thor in front of him, trying to make him take back the cryptocrystalline.
“Dingling——”
Suddenly a crisp sound rang in everyone’s ears.
Penny flew back to the diary in a flash.
“Oh, what’s that sound, so harsh!”
The nightmare butterfly immediately hid back in the diary, trembling, and even Thor could feel its uneasiness.
Thor was puzzled and looked towards the source of the sound.
He saw Dodge on the other side also took out a dream bell from his sleeve in a strange way.
“Strange, why did it ring by itself?”
