Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 541

Chapter 536: Souls in the Wizard Tower

The interior of the Wizard Tower was still dim, and no light was turned on because of the arrival of its owner.

Thor raised his hand, and an orange fireball appeared in his palm.

Although there was no light, he could still perceive the structure of the tower through the fluctuations of his mental power.

But visual cognition is also indispensable.

Especially in the former Gorza Wizard Tower, fire once meant safety.

The first floor of the White Wizard Tower.

Nothing.

It didn’t even have a staircase leading to the second floor.

But when Thor realized this, an arched doorway appeared right in front of him.

Behind the doorway, where the flames barely illuminated, several steps of stairs could be seen that went up.

Thor held the fireball and came to the archway, and found that this staircase had an upward passage and a downward passage.

The upward passage could be easily illuminated by the fireball, while the downward passage was immersed in thick darkness a few meters away.

It seemed that the light could not even reach it.

Thor immediately thought of the dark and spatial corridor between the second and first floors of the Wizard Tower.

“Go to the bedroom first, or go to the storeroom first?” Thor stopped at the stairs.

He didn’t know where the black iron coffin that gave birth to the entire wizard tower was. Only by finding the black iron coffin could he truly control this wizard tower.

Just as Thor was about to take the next step…

“Tap…tap…tap…”

A steady footstep came from below.

Thor looked sideways and saw a face with sunken cheeks emerging in the darkness.

After the thin face appeared, there was a slender neck and an equally slender tall but slender torso.

When he first appeared, he was nearly two meters tall, and his body proportions were extremely disproportionate.

But when his eyes fell on Thor and continued to go up, his height was shrinking little by little.

This shrinkage was very strange. Thor clearly saw his arms and legs folded inward like a machine. There was also a slight “click” sound.

And when the man walked to the five steps below Thor, his height had shrunk to only a little taller than Thor.

Thor is not very tall now. Perhaps the premature witchcraft transformation overdraws his bones. He is only 1.7 meters tall.

The man in front of him is about 1.74 meters tall.

When his height began to shrink from two meters, Thor finally recognized him.

“Butler?” He was a little surprised, and then he understood.

It turns out that the butler of the wizard tower is not a real person, just like the librarian and the gardener outside.

After the collapse of the Gorza Wizard Tower, the gardener was taken away by Mentor Kaz. After all, Thor was on his own and didn’t need someone to clean up the garden for him.

The butler of the wizard tower has not appeared. Thor thought he left in the chaos or died in a corner.

Unexpectedly, the other party has been staying in the black iron coffin.

“Long time no see, Lord Thor. Please allow me to call you ‘Lord Tower Master’.” The butler performed an elegant chest-touching ceremony, and after getting Thor’s consent, he stood up again.

“There are no other stewards in the Wizard Tower at present. You can call me Hope directly, or give me a new name.”

Asking the master to give me a new name means that Thor has absolute control over him.

Hope is nominally the steward of the Wizard Tower, but in fact, he is still a servant of the Wizard Tower.

Thor laughed lightly, “So your name is Hope. I have always called you the steward before, and I didn’t know your name. This name is good. I think you are used to it.”

He was not interested in naming people. After confirming Hope’s identity, he looked at the darkness leading to the lower level again.

“It seems that the black iron coffin is downstairs. There should be other people in it?”

“Yes, Lord Tower Master.” Steward Hope slightly sideways to make way for the not-so-wide staircase passage.

Hope’s action is like opening a passage.

Two more faces appeared in the darkness.

Thor was very familiar with these two faces.

They were the middle-aged librarian and the elderly librarian.

“Master of the Tower…” The middle-aged man was still timid and didn’t dare to look up at Thor.

“Master of the Tower.” The old man’s eyes were full of complexities and his attitude was respectful.

At the same time, a third voice “sounded” in Thor’s mind.

Agu: [Master of the Tower. ]

Thor sighed softly, “Now that the wizard tower has reappeared, it’s time to make you whole again.”

He stretched his hands forward, and two translucent gray tentacles extended from each of his left and right palms.

The old man accepted it calmly. Although the middle-aged man was very scared, he did not dodge at all.

As the other two parts of Agu’s soul were sucked into the diary, the black page belonging to him changed again.

The originally rough edges became neat and smooth, and the rough paper became as soft as silk cloth. However,

Agu, or the faceless man Gustav, who had re-melted his soul, did not speak again, and even closed the pages of the book, staying quietly in the diary.

“It seems that Agu still needs some time to complete the fusion of souls. Well, after a long separation, it may take some time to merge again to complete the integration of consciousness and memory.”

Thor ignored the diary and continued to look into the darkness.

“Ahem,” Butler Hope coughed twice, “What’s left are some scattered soul fragments. You are familiar with them, Lord Tower Master.”

Soul fragments?

Thor crossed his arms, “I know. Then don’t let them out for now.”

What else could the soul fragments in the wizard tower be?

Aren’t they just eyes, mouths, and noodle arms?

These guys are really not suitable to come out.

Let him go in and take a look.

Thor put down his arms and walked into the darkness.

Butler Hope lagged behind him by one step and followed closely behind him.

While Thor was exploring the new wizard tower, the old witch waiting outside was already impatient.

“What is this kid doing in there? Did he go in to sleep and leave me outside?”

Marsh was still growing mushrooms on the side. He was about to pull out all the mushrooms growing on his body. Only the most cheerful mushroom shaking on his head did not move.

The old witch, who had nothing to do and nowhere to move, wanted to go for a walk outside, but when she walked to the lake, she found that the vine raft that was originally on the water had disappeared without a trace.

“Sol said that we need to take a boat to get to the island, but he didn’t say that we must also take a boat to leave the island. I can also try. I can’t just listen to him. What if he makes a wrong judgment?”

In short, the old witch didn’t completely believe in Sol, and she was also quite confident in her own strength. She believed that even if she encountered a rule-based danger, there was a way to avoid it.

“Tell your master that I’m going to take a look on the lake.”

Without waiting for Marsh to answer, the old witch got up and flew into the thick fog.

Another hour later, the sky above the gray fog also dimmed.

It was about to get dark, and Sol finally came out of the wizard tower.

After he came out, he only vaguely saw Marsh through the fog, but he didn’t feel the old witch’s mental fluctuations.

He walked to Marsh, who immediately stood up and bowed.

“Where is the old witch?”

“My lord, she said she was going out to take a look.”

Hearing that the old witch went out without permission, Sol was not very happy. He walked to the lake, but the fog was too thick and he couldn’t see where the old witch was.

Sol squinted his eyes and started the semi-immersive meditation method.

The world in front of him immediately became much clearer.

Thor saw a small figure circling in the sky not far from the island in the middle of the lake.

“It seems that my initial speculation was correct. Two rules have been discovered so far. One is that you cannot look directly at things in the water when you are on the lake, and the other is that you need to take a boat to enter and exit the island in the middle of the lake.”

Looking at the old witch who was like a headless fly and couldn’t fly out of the fog, Thor curled his lips and said, “Xiao Zao, you reassemble the raft and go over there to bring back the trouble.”

“Don’t be too anxious, wait until she calls for help before setting off.”

Thor took a last look at the old witch, turned around and took Mash back to the wizard tower.
