Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 550

Chapter 545: Changes in Rhine Lake
As soon as he got the powder that left traces of the crisis, Thor immediately began to study it.
After studying it for a long time, he was unable to analyze its specific composition.
It seemed to be neither soil nor some kind of crystal. He had no idea what it was.
“It’s like a completely new substance.” Thor decided to ask the local old witch if she knew anything.
So, four days after entering the basement, Thor finally came out.
“I thought you died in there.”
The old witch stood at the exit of the basement, her face full of displeasure. After living
in the wizard tower for more than a month, she has grown from two heads to four heads.
From a baby to a little loli.
Oh, the face is not.
“The experiment encountered some problems and it took longer than expected. By the way, old witch, you are knowledgeable and an old man in the Borderless Land. Have you seen this kind of material?”
Thor put the petri dish in front of the old witch.
“Where did you get this thing?” The old witch glanced at it casually, and then her face suddenly changed.
“You really know it.”
“I… it’s okay to tell you. Anyway, if you stay in the Borderless Land for a long time, you will encounter it sooner or later.” The old witch looked complicated, “This is the remnant of the pollution source in the Borderless Land. We all call it strange sand.”
“Strange sand?”
“Someone once discovered that new rules were born in all places where strange sand appeared. Haha, congratulations, the rules of Rhine Lake just analyzed are no longer useful. Next, we will take risks to study the new rules that will appear here.”
The old witch’s face was not good.
Every exploration of the rules will bring a large number of deaths.
Even so, people may not be able to discover all the rules, so that occasionally wizards will suddenly die inexplicably in the place where they have lived for many years.
Thor thought to himself: “But the diary does not indicate danger, and the soul suspected to be Camus in it is not conscious yet.”
He asked the old witch again, “Is this strange sand dangerous? Or what is its use?”
“It’s useless. It’s like the residue of exhausted energy. Of course, there is a little radiation pollution on it. If it is placed in the hands of ordinary people, it is also fatal.”
There is indeed a little radiation on this strange sand, but for apprentices above level two, it has no effect.
At this moment, Marsh, who lived outside the tower, ran in, panting and said nervously, “My Lord, Rhine Lake, Rhine Lake is frozen!”
Thor and the old witch looked at each other and stood up and walked out at the same time.
When the two came outside, they found that the thick fog, which was less than ten meters visible, had dissipated a lot, leaving only the misty, dreamy, fairy-like white fog covering the Rhine Lake and the island in the middle of the lake.
Even though they were dozens of meters apart, Thor could see that there was really a thick layer of ice on the surface of the Rhine Lake.
This made the temperature of the island in the middle of the lake drop a little bit more than before. It was obviously March, when the flowers were blooming and spring was about to begin, but it was as cold as February that froze the skin.
Thor walked quickly to the lake and looked at the ice.
The ghosts who had looked at him confusedly at the bottom of the lake were also covered. I wonder what their situation is now?
It just so happened that his experimental subjects had not been consumed yet.
Thor called the dull Kent.
The old witch narrowed her eyes.
She recognized at a glance that this Kent was not a living person, and he should be of the same nature as the butler. It was
just that she didn’t know the specific structural principle… Of course, she was too lazy to figure it out.
There was too much unknown knowledge in this world, and she was too lazy to figure it out one by one.
But for things related to herself, such as the rules of Rhine Lake, she was still willing to use her brain.
The old witch also walked to Thor, raised her hand and pinched a ball of air, turning it into a bird with whirlwind wings.
“Go!”
The old witch shouted softly and let go of her hand.
The bird rushed straight towards the ice, with a heroic atmosphere of facing death.
However, the little bird constructed by witchcraft just crossed the interface between the lakeside and the ice surface, and suddenly disappeared.
The wings composed of the whirlwind spread out and turned into a breeze, but it did not even blow the thin mist around.
“Forbidden magic space?” The old witch’s face became heavier.
At this time, Kent had obeyed the order and walked to Thor.
Although the old witch’s air bird had dissipated, Thor still asked Kent to step onto the ice.
Kent had no sense of crisis. Thor gave the order and walked forward.
The moment he just stepped into the ice, the whole person disappeared.
Thor had been staring at Kent, and this time he finally discovered that when Kent crossed the boundary between the lakeside and the lake, the body witchcraft around his body disintegrated in an instant.
And Kent’s soul was pulled under the ice by the inexplicable force of rules at a speed that the n*ked eye could hardly keep up with.
Thor thought about it and walked to the edge of the lake.
“Hey, don’t look for death!” The old witch hurriedly called him.
“I know.” While paying attention to the movement of the diary, Thor tried to use the diary to extract Kent’s soul that was sucked into the Rhine Lake.
Then, he easily sent Kent’s soul back to the diary.
It seemed that the rules of the Rhine Lake did not prevent the soul from leaving. But it was more likely that the power of the diary was stronger than the rules of this area.
Thor went back to change a separate experimental spirit and set a coordinate for summoning witchcraft in the spirit.
But this time, after the spirit entered under the ice, Thor failed to summon it back.
The coordinates also disappeared after the soul entered the lake.
“Witchcraft will disappear when it enters the range of the Rhine Lake, and the soul will be sucked under the ice. Then can physical methods be used to bring the soul back?”
Thor asked the algae to split a slender tentacle and threw one end onto the lake like fishing.
The new tentacle could not split again on the ice, but it could use its pointed mouth to nibble on the ice.
After nibbling for ten minutes, it finally nibbled a small hole in the ice.
Then it drilled in and used its mouth to hold the spirit that fell in.
And sent it back to Thor little by little.
Xiaozao had swallowed a cryptocrystalline substance in the Elf Valley and mutated.
Therefore, unlike other Soul Devouring Swamps, Xiaozao can touch physical objects, spirits, and even conscious beings like Nightmare Butterflies.
But when Xiaozao’s clone crawled back to the shore and opened its mouth to Thor, Thor and the old witch realized that it was not the spirit that Thor had thrown in before.
“Well, it’s a little difficult for your clone to distinguish which spirit is which.”
Thor touched Xiaozao’s head.
“Your pet is really unique.” The old witch looked at Xiaozao with envy.
It has powerful functions and is well-behaved and obedient.
Thor did not respond, and he would not sell it anyway.
He came to the lake again, “The spirit will be pulled to the bottom of the lake, and the magic will dissipate. But Xiaozao can move on the ice and even bite through the ice… It seems that the rules here are not very strong, at least there will be no extreme situation of instant death.”
“But… Xiaozao is a demonic creature and can go up. What about us?”
Thor took a tentative step forward.
The old witch’s eyes widened immediately. Before she could stop him, she saw Thor had already taken the second step.
He was standing on the ice.
She opened her mouth and her head almost fell back.
“You… lunatic!”
The third update!
