Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 124
Chapter 124: Mutation Cave
Seeing that the previous attack was effective, Thor threw out two more arrows.
The sharp sword drilled into the smaller cave and disappeared. Soon, green mucus gushed out again.
The suction from the cave gradually weakened.
Thor breathed a sigh of relief.
His soul worm was mixed with soul fragments full of regrets when it was constructed. He didn’t want to use it more if it was not necessary.
Now there are three seniors here, so Thor doesn’t need to fight too hard.
Sure enough, Thor just withstood the attack of the mutant crypt, and the battle of the three people over there was over.
Two more ground spikes drilled out of the ground, inserted obliquely into the mountain wall opposite Thor, and penetrated the crypt in front of Thor from the side.
The crypt contracted violently twice and finally closed completely.
Staring at the cave, seeing that it had not changed for a long time, Thor turned back.
He saw Wright raised his eyebrows to him, knowing that the ground spike he was holding now and the two ground spikes that solved the mutant crypt in the end were all Wright’s help, and hurriedly thanked him.
“Thank you, Senior Wright.”
Wright looked relaxed, and it was obvious that the battle just now was nothing to him.
“You’re welcome. If you get sucked in, we’ll have to find a way to pull you out. Haha, it would be bad if you get pulled out, and we’d lose a very powerful guide.”
Wright laughed out loud because he didn’t know what he was thinking.
At this time, all the mutated caves had been closed. Thor realized that this was not a fork in the road, but just a relatively spacious passage.
There were only two roads, front and back, and the rest of the tunnels and caves were all fake.
“What kind of monster is this? It’s disguised so well.” Bill stepped on the foam on the ground, which had solidified into a solid like plaster at this time, and it fell down with a step.
“There is no record of this monster before, maybe it’s a new mutation in the past one or two years.” Byron said in a deep voice.
Byron checked several closed mutated caves and couldn’t find any useful loot.
He stood up and clapped his hands, “It’s getting late, I suggest we go back to the ground first.”
Bill said “tsk”.
“We didn’t get much this time. It takes a lot of time to go in and out. We might as well stay here overnight.”
Byron shook his head. “It’s too dangerous to stay overnight in a place where evil spirits are haunted.”
But looking at Bill’s expression, he knew that he would not compromise easily this time.
Thor still held the ground spikes that Wright supported him and hid behind to watch the fun.
Anyway, as a second-level apprentice, he was not qualified to participate in the discussion of such strategic decisions.
Just as Thor was watching the angry debate that was about to ignite, a big hole suddenly opened in the wall beside him.
“Sha——”
A cold and gloomy breath seeped out.
But before Thor was touched by the cold air, he turned his head suddenly and noticed the big hole that opened silently beside him.
At the same time, a pale, hole-ridden human head suddenly shot out of the hole and bit Thor’s subconsciously raised right hand.
The long chestnut hair was scattered on the head in a mess, and the white of the eyes without pupils stared at Thor between the hair.
His face was full of holes like honeycomb coal, and his mouth was the biggest hole on his face. Sharp teeth stretched out from the hole, but failed to bite through Thor’s gloves.
There was no pain in his right hand, but Thor still felt a strong pulling force.
The moment the head bit Thor, it immediately retreated, as if trying to pull Thor into the big hole that had just been opened.
Thor was pulled by the opponent’s huge force, and his body was shocked. He quickly held the ground spike tightly with his left hand again to avoid being dragged in.
“Bang!”
Thor’s face changed, and under the huge pulling force, he heard the sound of his bones being dislocated.
Everything happened in a flash, and at this time Byron’s support finally arrived.
A huge net appeared out of thin air and wrapped around the head full of holes.
The head was bound.
Under the pressure of the huge net, the flesh made a “sizzling” sound of roasting meat.
It finally let go in pain.
Thor then rescued his right hand.
But his right hand was completely powerless at this time, probably because the bones were broken, so he could only hold it with his left hand.
The head of the person on the other side was about to be pulled out by Byron’s giant net, but he suddenly tore off his neck.
The back half of his body that was not caught by the giant net quickly shrank back.
Seeing that the big hole was about to close, Byron jumped in without saying a word.
At the critical moment, Wright raised his hand, and a big hand made of stone appeared from the ground, holding up the mutated cave and preventing it from closing.
Thor looked at the big hole that was constantly trying to close with worry, wondering if Senior Byron could come back safely.
“Broken?” Bill suddenly appeared behind Thor, scaring him.
“Maybe it’s just dislocated…” Thor’s heart skipped a beat and he retracted his left hand slightly.
But Bill had a smile on his face and pulled Thor’s arm forcefully.
Severe pain immediately came from his elbow.
Thor’s face twitched, but he endured it without crying out in pain.
Bill opened his mouth and a puff of white smoke came out, covering Thor’s right elbow, and soon the pain there disappeared.
Bill tore off Thor’s gloves and saw the gray and transparent skin of Thor’s forearm and the faintly exposed bones underneath.
He raised an eyebrow and lifted Thor’s arm and flipped it back and forth twice.
“Your modified arm is quite strong. It was bitten like that, but there is no scar left.”
The injured part of Thor was not the bitten arm, but the joint where the skin and upper arm were connected, which was torn.
After checking, Bill finally let go of Thor’s arm and threw the glove to Thor again.
Thor caught the glove with his left hand and put it in his pocket without wearing it.
“Your glove is not very strong. If you want, you can go to the exchange meeting and change it for a stronger glove prop.”
“I’ll go and see if there is a chance.”
Thor didn’t want Bill to notice the special properties of his glove, so he responded casually.
He lowered his head to study his right hand. His right hand could move freely at this time. It seemed that Bill was really healing him instead of simply anesthetizing him.
I didn’t expect this guy to be a healer.
At this time, Byron finally ran out of the cave. Seeing this, Wright removed the stone hand, and the big hole closed instantly.
“How is it?” Wright leaned over.
Byron had a smile on his face, picked up a glass bottle with a round bottom and a thin neck, and changed it in front of everyone.
“Evil spirit?” Even Bill walked over now.
“Evil spirits that are being transformed, but they are still vengeful spirits in essence.”
The bottle was gray and Thor couldn’t see what it was.
“Vengeful spirit? That’s fine.”
Although it was not the evil spirit that Byron’s mission target, a vengeful spirit like this that had already begun to transform was also very valuable. It would be
good to take it back to the wizard tower in exchange for credits and money, or to keep it for research.
And if Byron didn’t catch an evil spirit, it would be the team’s gain, and Bill and his team would also be able to share the money.
Wright clapped his hands, “That’s good, we have made a lot of gains today. We can go back.”
This time Bill didn’t object.
Byron put away the bottle and walked to Thor.
“How is your arm?”
“Senior Bill treated me, and it’s fine now.” Thor raised his right arm and shook it, but it was mainly for Senior Byron to examine it.
Everyone cleaned up the scene again and made sure there was no other gain before returning the same way.
The most difficult part of the way back was the very deep passage.
Wright and Bill both had their own ways to get up, but Byron gave up on turning into a balloon and asked Thor to use the algae to pull him up.
The algae was very strong and could easily pull two people up.
As they were climbing up the passage, Thor’s heart was moved and he looked down.
Because of the loss of light, the underground passage became dark again, and there were bursts of flowing water.
Thor had an illusion that someone was constantly pouring water into the underground passage.
The water level gradually rose, chasing the footsteps of everyone.
Night is coming.
Like the Wizard Tower, the underground of Chuishou Valley at night may also become another world.
