Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 170

Chapter 170 Negotiation

Thor stared at Hayden with his only remaining right eye and saw the blood on his face fade away little by little.

Thor understood that Hayden, who was hiding in the morgue without attending classes, studying, or making progress, probably wanted to wait until he was thirty years old and leave the wizard tower to live a free and low-key life.

But the reality was not as good as imagined.

The closed Hayden finally came into contact with the truth that he had never known.

He became depressed, his body swayed, and he put one hand on the tool table, messing up the neatly placed tools.

Just like his mood at the moment.

“I told you not to hide, don’t hide, you coward, now it’s over! It’s over, right?” Hayden, with a pale face, suddenly opened his mouth and said something that was completely inconsistent with his expression.

Looking at Hayden like this, Thor raised his hand and pinched his chin, thinking.

As neighbors for two years, he had long discovered that Hayden had some personality problems and seemed to have developed a second personality. He didn’t know whether it was the influence of witchcraft radiation or his own inner disease.

At first, Thor didn’t intend to pay attention, but during this cooperation, he suddenly felt that Hayden was actually a good assistant. He

had no extra curiosity, solid basic knowledge, and had unlocked almost 100% of the 0th-level witchcraft library. He had rich experimental experience and had handled countless customers.

Most importantly, Hayden had no power behind him.

Thor put down his hands and crossed his index fingers.

“Senior Hayden, I’ll give you a choice. Do you want to leave the Wizard Tower at the age of 30, or work hard in the last two years to reach the third level?”

Thor’s question slightly loosened Hayden’s restraint over the years, but when he thought of his own situation, he became discouraged again.

“Thor, I’m already 28 this year. The two years you said are really only two years.”

Thor didn’t force Hayden. He looked back at the human body display cabinets on the wall. “If you change your mind and want to give it a last try, you can come find me.”

Thor walked out the door. “If you want to try, you can put an eye outside the door. I’ll see it and come back to find you.”

“You? You want to help me?” Hayden took a breath and looked at Thor, who was only fourteen years old. He felt a little absurd, but he couldn’t help but want to believe it.

“Do your best.” Thor shrugged and opened the door of the morgue.

His white joints were very obvious against the scarlet door.

After leaving the morgue, Thor saw that the time was almost up, so he went to Ku Jin’s dormitory to attend an appointment with hidden calculations.

“Your eye…” Ku Jin pushed open the door and saw that Thor, who was fine yesterday, had become a one-eyed dragon today.

“It’s just an experimental accident, it’s okay.” Thor said casually.

When Thor walked into the room, Ku Jin closed the door directly from the outside and left him outside.

Saul was startled, and immediately turned around to open the door.

When his hand touched the doorknob, a voice came from the direction of the bedroom.

“Don’t be nervous, Ku Jin didn’t come in because it’s me who wants to discuss cooperation with you.”

He turned around and saw Ferguson who had taken off his pants last night.

Saul’s face showed appropriate confusion and vigilance, “Who are you, senior? What do you want to talk to me about?”

“Sit down.” Ferguson pointed to the tables and chairs in the living room, “I’m used to sitting down to talk.”

“Is it because you can’t stand?” Saul thought to himself, and walked to the chair closest to the door and sat down hesitantly.

Ferguson chose the seat opposite Saul and sat down, looking like he was going to negotiate.

“I don’t know what you are capable of, but you can replace Ku Jin’s position for several years.” Ferguson raised his chin and looked at Saul, “But there has always been an agreement between Ku Jin and me. I pay credits or other things that Ku Jin needs, and Ku Jin provides me with materials unique to the second warehouse.”

So straightforward?

Thor puffed out his chest, “That was the deal between you and Ku Jin. Now he has left the warehouse, and I don’t have the ability to continue the deal with you like he did.

” Thor didn’t say anything stupidly, “You are actually stealing materials from the warehouse?”

It’s okay to play dumb, but being too dumb is fake.

Ferguson didn’t beat around the bush, “What are you worried about?”

“Metal door, since you’ve already done the deal, you should know that the door will automatically determine the content of the task. Things that are not written with the communication pen cannot be transported out of the warehouse.”

“We can help you solve the transportation problem. What other questions do you have?”

We?

Are you secretly telling me that Ku Jin is also involved, or that there is another partner?

Thor pondered for a few seconds, “What can you provide?”

“The most basic magic crystals and credits. Since you have accepted the warehouse mission, you will not be able to go out for a long time, so you will basically have no chance of going out for missions. If you need anything and the wizard tower doesn’t have it, you can ask me and I can help you find it.”

Thor folded his arms across his chest, leaned back in his chair, and thought to himself, “The pie you drew is quite round.”

“Then what do you need me to transport? I declare in advance that I will not touch anything with a number, even if you promise to help me solve the corresponding troubles.”

Ferguson tapped his hand lightly on the armrest, “We will naturally not touch taboos. We will only need some ordinary things. We want long-term cooperation.”

This time it was Thor’s turn to consider.

“How can I guarantee that people won’t secretly report me after I trade with you?”

“Hahaha…” Ferguson leaned back, “What’s the point of reporting? As long as you say you used it yourself, will the mentors check for missing materials one by one?” Ferguson

raised a finger at Thor and shook it gently, “You don’t have to think about reporting. First of all, we have been doing this for many years, and secondly, the mentors are actually aware of it. We are not greedy, and we won’t foolishly touch the bottom line of the mentors.”

It seems that these guys have really been smuggling materials for a long time, but some of the words just now may have been said to Thor.

Even if Thor didn’t overhear the conversation between the two, he would not accept Ferguson’s words completely.

“I know about this, but I need some time to think about it.” Thor glanced at the hourglass clock on the wall and stood up, “It’s almost three o’clock, I’m going back to the warehouse.”

Ferguson didn’t stand up, but his face was a little gloomy, and he folded his hands to cover his mouth.

“Thor, I think there is one thing you must understand. We are not wandering wizards, nor are we lone wolves in the wilderness. It is normal to cooperate in the short or long term to achieve certain goals. Otherwise, why do you think Master Wizard Gorza wants to build a wizard tower? After

all, the power of one person is limited.” Thor lowered his head slightly, “I understand what you mean, but it is also because I am considering cooperation that I am more cautious. If I easily agree to everything, you will also worry that I will cheat, right?”

Thor asked again, “What do you want?”

Ferguson pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, “In order to keep it secret, I will only tell you the moment before you enter the warehouse. If you do not leave the warehouse for a long time, or come out without what we need, our transaction will be terminated immediately.”

Not giving Thor time to prepare is obviously to prevent him from having time to play tricks.

But they didn’t know that Thor had heard their plan a long time ago.

Thor supported himself on his knees, stood up and said, “Well, it seems that what you want is not simple.”

Ferguson’s expression froze. He didn’t want Thor to think so, and hurriedly explained, “The materials that can enter the wizard tower vault are naturally not simple. I didn’t tell you in advance because I was afraid of any accidents.”

He tried to change the subject.

“You’d better not waste too much of our time. Give us an answer before tomorrow night, otherwise we may change a partner.”

Thor’s smile instantly turned cold, “Change? How? Are you threatening me?”

Questioned by a second-level apprentice, Ferguson’s anger burned up. But when he put his hands on the armrest and tried to stand up, his action changed from supporting to grasping.

“It’s not a threat,” he suppressed his anger and held the armrest tightly, as if he wanted to break it, “It’s just a necessary reminder.”

After Ferguson gave in, Thor’s face changed instantly and smiled, “Thank you for the reminder, senior, then I’ll leave first.”

But this time he didn’t promise to think about it carefully.
