Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 305

Chapter 304 The Difficulty of Advancement

When Thor and Byron, who had finished adjusting, left the laboratory, Keli had already completed a series of preparations and was sitting leisurely in the front hall flipping through the books that the original owner Mochimochi had thrown on the table.

Hearing the voice, she looked up from the text and saw Thor and the other person walking down the stairs one after the other.

Especially Thor, who was still holding a backpack in his hand.

“You…are you leaving now?” She threw the book in her hand casually on the sofa.

“Yes, I haven’t been back to the warehouse for a long time. I thought I could go back in ten days this time, but I unexpectedly stayed for another half a month. I have to go back to hand over the work quickly.”

Thor knew that after he and Byron left, Keli was the only one left in Black Castle. Although Keli took the initiative to ask to come here to study her witchcraft. And with her personality, she wouldn’t care about these things, but in Black Castle, it was not as convenient as in the Wizard Tower.

“Sorry, we finally met, and I have to leave in a hurry again.” Thor hasn’t studied and researched with Keli for a long time.

It seems that after advancing to the second-level apprentice, the two of them have moved in different directions.

Keli was more relaxed.

She shrugged and said, “It doesn’t matter. If one day we always get together to chat, it will probably mean that we are not far from death.”

She added, “I left a transmission track at the registration office and with Instructor Gudo – something that can communicate directly with Black Castle. If you have anything to ask me, you can go to these two places… Oh, by the way, remember to prepare enough magic crystals. Transmission consumes a lot of magic power.”

“Then let’s just write letters.” Thor smiled and refused.

Keli rolled her eyes, sat back on the sofa, touched the book that she had thrown aside before, and continued to read.

Thor said goodbye to her, “Then Senior Byron and I will leave.”

Keli did not show her face, but just raised one hand and waved casually.

Unexpectedly, Byron suddenly said, “Actually, you don’t have to call me senior anymore. If I’m not mistaken, you should have reached level three, right?”

Thor didn’t expect that Senior Byron could see it, and he didn’t deny it, “Yes.”

In the past half month, Thor has successfully mastered the second-level witchcraft Torture Touch.

He has now officially become a third-level wizard apprentice!

“Pah!”

Keli’s book slipped from her palm and slammed on the ground.

“You’re level three?” She stood up in disbelief, “How long have you been promoted to level two? Three months?”

Thor thought about it seriously, “Almost half a year.”

“You still think about it?” Keli clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

Then she suddenly straightened her chest and said seriously, “Next time we meet… I will catch up with you.”

Her eyes were burning, and she didn’t think she was bragging at all.

And Thor on the opposite side also restrained his smile and nodded solemnly, “I believe you.”

Both of them were extremely sure that Keli could advance to level three, only Byron on the side felt that he was stabbed.

He thought about his own age and the age of the young man and girl in front of him, and his expression became depressed for a while.

…

Not long after, Thor and Byron got on the carriage they came in.

These two carriages were much larger than the one Thor took alone, and it was unknown who paid for the rental.

The Black Castle behind him was completely covered by the shade of the trees, and Thor looked back from the window.

It was not because of the parting mood that made people look back frequently, but because Thor secretly left something in the Black Castle before leaving.

After Thor turned around, Xiaozao also quietly got out of the window, imitating the owner’s appearance, examining the clones left by it in the Black Castle.

Although Keli was not as easy to attract “firepower” as Thor, she even had witchcraft props prepared by her mentor for self-defense, but Thor knew that the relationship between Mobei City and the Black Castle was not as solid as it seemed, so he was naturally not at ease with Keli staying here alone.

So, he ordered Xiaozao to leave a clone here, and allowed it to seize the nutrients of the devil vine at the critical moment to protect Keli.

Xiaozao is the Soul Devouring Demon Swamp, and was originally a demonic creature of the same level as the devil vine. But since following Thor, its power has also been affected by the diary and is constantly getting stronger.

Therefore, when Xiaozao encounters the devil vine, it can easily suppress the opponent and almost occupy the opponent’s nest.

Presumably, the devil vine will find Xiaozao’s clone in the Black Castle Forest soon.

I hope it won’t cry too loudly then.

“I really envy you.” Byron, who was sitting opposite Thor, sighed when he saw Thor finally sit up straight.

“Huh?” Thor was still thinking about the Black Castle and Mobei City, and didn’t react for a while.

“For you and Keli, it’s only a matter of time before you advance to the third-level apprentice. Unlike me, if I hadn’t obtained your plastic bone formula, I might have left the wizard tower now and was out there looking for a way to advance in despair.”

Thor smiled, “In fact, it was senior who relied on his own wisdom to realize it. My formula is not the real solution.”

“But I know how rare an opportunity for enlightenment is.”

It seems that the problem of the evil spirit in his body has been solved. Senior Byron, who has not spoken for a long time, opened up his mouth.

“Even in a powerful wizard tower, it is very difficult to train a third-level apprentice. Even Kong Sha, who was extremely talented at the time, is still struggling outside to find a way to advance.”

At this point, Byron suddenly remembered something, and his face was slightly depressed.

“By the way, Nick is dead.”

Thor was startled, “Senior Nick…”

He found that Nick was not in a good state the last time he saw him. Thinking that he had helped him in the Chuishu Valley, Thor asked about his situation.

It’s a pity that Nick was unwilling to tell Thor anything, and he didn’t take the initiative to find Thor.

Moreover, Nick majored in light attributes. Even if Thor knew the troubles he was facing, he might not be able to help.

“How did he die? Was it an accident or was he murdered?” Thinking that Nick was closely related to the grinding sound fruit, Thor hurriedly asked Byron about the cause of Nick’s death.

“Neither. He failed to advance and was contaminated.”

“Failed to advance…” Thor murmured, “He really would die.”

Thor recalled the last time he saw Nick.

Nick majored in light attributes, but the witchcraft he studied was all related to emotions. Thor never asked why emotions belonged to light.

Thor always felt that majoring in dark attributes was more dangerous, after all, it often dealt with death and evil spirits. That knowledge also looked weird, full of chaos and evil.

But now it seems that the light attribute may just sound good.

Byron told Thor that Nick majored in emotions, but he also needed to suppress his emotions. Every time he was injured or his spiritual body fluctuated, the fear, sadness and even joy that he suppressed would be fed back like a tsunami.

If he could not resist the counterattack of the emotional tsunami, his spirit would collapse.

Therefore, Nick often needed the Grinding Sound Fruit to help him get through the most difficult period of the emotional tsunami.

“These descriptions do match Nick’s final state.” Sol’s mood was inevitably a little fluctuating because he heard the death of an acquaintance, “But his final nervous look didn’t seem to be just contaminated.”

Sol remembered that Nick was emotionally tense at the time, but his rationality was not affected, and he gave him the only remaining Grinding Sound Fruit.

Sol frowned.

The apprentice who applied for a large amount of Grinding Sound Fruit in the registration office died, and the entire Mofan Town was wiped out. Now even Nick, who was most familiar with the role of the Grinding Sound Fruit, is dead.

The atmosphere in the carriage gradually became solemn.

Now, almost everyone related to the Grinding Sound Fruit is dead!
