Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 121

Chapter 121 I Can Float Down

Thor heard a series of fragmented and vague sounds in his ears, but no matter how hard he listened, he could not make out the meaning.

He unconsciously took another step forward, but soon realized that it was the pollution that was tempting him.

Thor consciously moved his eyes away to reduce the influence of the pollution, but the sound in his ears suddenly became louder.

He raised his head and looked at the entire cliff.

On those cliffs, regardless of whether there were caves or not, there were actually many densely packed white arms stretched out.

Those arms kept stretching and waving, with five fingers spread out, and their shapes were hideous.

Thor frowned, and he was now sure that these hands were asking for help.

He seemed to be able to see through these hands the countless corpses buried in the mountain wall, and saw that these originally powerful wizard apprentices and wizards could only be buried in despair and helplessness in the face of more powerful and weird existences.

Thor suddenly understood what the wizard’s burial ground was, and what it meant that the western region had become a vacuum zone for wizards.

That was the cruelty that Thor could not imagine after hearing Byron’s understatement.

The dead on the cliff in front of him were probably only a small part of the entire Hanging Hand Valley.

Those arms could not make any sound, so they could only desperately shake to attract others’ attention, hoping to be saved.

But Thor was very aware that those arms were not even soul fragments. They were just the polluted resentment left by the dead under the radiation of witchcraft.

After watching for a long time, Thor had an illusion that he was not standing at the bottom of the valley looking at the towering and steep cliffs, but flying high in the sky, ruthlessly watching the dead buried underground and unable to break free.

Thor shook his head and felt that his spirit was a little unstable.

“Thor? Thor?”

Suddenly someone called him. Thor shuddered and came to his senses and saw that everyone was looking at him.

It was Nick who called him, “What’s wrong with you? They are all leaving.”

It seems that Byron and the others have already chosen the entrance.

But Thor rubbed his swollen head and said to the three seniors, “There are some abnormalities in these caves on the cliff behind us.”

Byron knew Thor’s ability best, so he walked back and carefully observed the mountain wall that he had not noticed at first.

Wright looked at Thor, then looked at the quiet mountain range, and asked doubtfully, “Didn’t they say that the bodies of the wizards were all underground? Why did they run to the side?”

“Thor is very good at observing spirits.” Byron retracted his gaze, “I trust him very much.”

Bill listened, squinted his eyes and smiled, “I’m not good at this, but if you can determine which cave is more likely to have spirits, I will listen to you.” Byron

directly gave Thor the right to choose, “Thor, which cave do you think is most obviously polluted?”

Thor wanted to say that the entire mountain wall was very abnormal.

However, he still observed the cave in front of him again, endured the restlessness of his spirit body, and carefully looked for the differences.

Bill saw Thor’s appearance, squinted his eyes, and didn’t know what he was thinking.

Wright clapped his hands and whispered, “Is he observing a spirit? I heard that some people with particularly sensitive mental powers can directly observe the remnants of souls without using any instruments. Could it be that Thor can do that?”

Byron did not speak, tacitly agreeing with Wright’s guess.

Thor scanned several nearby caves and finally stopped at one.

He raised his hand and pointed to a cave about three meters above the ground and a little over one meter in diameter.

“Here, the pollution here is more serious. The possibility of the existence of evil spirits is greater.”

Although Wright still didn’t understand anything, he still sighed, “Thor, the way you looked just now is very similar to the way my mentor examined the petri dish.”

“Your mentor?”

“Professor Anze.” Wright had a complicated expression, as if he was recalling something, “I’m only good at fighting, not good at doing experiments. The expression on Professor Anze’s face when he looked at my lab report… It’s really scary.”

Bill laughed, “If you play with women less, maybe your brain will work better.”

Wright rolled his eyes, “I have never played with women. Every time I communicate with them very seriously.”

Nick was still fiddling with the sensor in his hand, but he didn’t find anything else. He could only sigh, “If someone says that wizards with only mental talents but no magical talents are useless, I will use you as an example to refute them.”

Bill was the most anxious, and said immediately, “Since it has been confirmed, what are we waiting for, let’s set off now.”

Byron walked to Thor, patted him on the shoulder, “Follow me on the road.”

The four of them immediately chose the cave three meters above the ground, bent down and walked in, leaving only Nick in the camp.

Nick still stood there while watching Wright, who was at the end of the team, disappear into the cave.

He clasped his hands tightly together, not looking as calm as he appeared.

Because Bill and Wright were both third-level apprentices, Nick could not use the teleportation technique in front of them.

“Thor…” He could only secretly tell them in his heart, “Be sure to follow Byron closely.”

…

The cave Thor chose was not spacious, and moving inside the mountain was still more difficult than he had imagined.

After all, this was not a normal passage for passage. Some places were spacious, and some were so narrow that Thor could not get through.

When encountering such a place, Wright would take action.

He majored in earth attributes and was very comfortable moving underground.

After extending smoothly for a distance on the side of the mountain, it immediately turned sharply downward.

There were some steep places, and Thor could only insert his hands deeply into the soil on the side to maintain his balance.

It was pitch black under everyone’s feet, and it was impossible to see how far the downward passage was.

Bill, who was walking in the second place, kept using the glimmer technique, but it could only illuminate the area within a few meters.

Farther away, even with Thor’s current vision, he could only see a blurry shadow.

After walking for about half an hour, Wright, who was at the front, suddenly stopped.

“No, there is a very deep downward passage ahead, and the angle is almost vertical.”

He threw a stone down.

The stone bumped and rolled for a long time.

“I’m afraid we have to fly down here. It’s a waste of time to climb.”

“Fly?” Bill’s voice sounded, “Thor, there’s no need to ask, Byron, have you learned the feather fall technique?”

Byron’s whole body shook, and the whole person suddenly shrank.

His throat split, “I can float down.”

Before Thor could figure out how Senior Byron was going to float, he saw that the mouth of the senior who was shriveled like human skin suddenly became longer, his lips opened and closed a few times, and then he took a deep breath.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss…”

In just a few seconds, his whole body swelled up.

His skin was almost stretched to the limit, and it kept swelling and swelling, and finally turned into a long human-shaped balloon.

Then, he raised his two hands that were swollen like pig’s trotters and tied a knot around his mouth with difficulty.

Even Bill and Wright who were standing by were dumbfounded by this operation.

Byron ignored the two men, moved his body with difficulty, and flicked his mouth at Thor.

“Yeah.”

Perhaps it was tacit understanding, Thor immediately understood what Byron meant.

“Senior… do you want me to grab your mouth and float down together?”

“Yeah!”

“Puff——” Wright was the first to break the defense. He covered his stomach and laughed so hard that he couldn’t breathe. “Byron, Byron, why didn’t I find you so funny before. If I had your ability…” Wright

‘s voice stopped abruptly, and he suddenly touched his chin and began to think.

Bill immediately pushed Wright who was thinking, “Since they have a way to go down, let’s go quickly!” Wright

didn’t notice and was pushed down the tunnel by Bill. But judging from the sound, it didn’t become a free fall.

Bill looked back at Byron, “If you can’t carry Thor, I have a way to carry him down.”

Byron flicked his mouth sideways.

Bill curled the corners of his mouth, didn’t persuade him anymore, and jumped down directly.
