Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 589

Chapter 584: Finding the Eye of the Storm

“Is he a half-elf?” The second-level wizard asked in disbelief.

“Yes.” The third-level wizard nodded.

“Oh my God, because of the disappearance of the elves, are the remaining half-elves so powerful? If there are more half-elves, wouldn’t they be able to dominate the world like the elves?”

“Don’t worry.” The third-level wizard whispered, “These half-elves are also suffering from the curse of the elves. Their number will only decrease until they disappear completely.”

Thinking of the half-elf who just left, the third-level wizard sighed silently in his heart, “You will never know if the half-elf you meet is the last half-elf in the world.”

While the wizards behind him were talking about the half-elf who had entered the no-man’s land, this wizard who amazed everyone had already entered the dangerous area.

He lifted his hood again, but his appearance had changed into an ordinary 30-year-old man.

It was Thor’s excellent senior, Byron!

Byron is now a first-level wizard.

Not only that, because of the head of the Elf King given to him by Thor, he has a little bit of elf ability. Not only can he change his appearance at will, but he also has a strong ability to seduce others.

It’s a pity that Byron usually still maintains his own appearance.

In his opinion, even if he changes his skin, he is still himself.

The so-called stunning appearance is almost as useful as the hands of a wizard.

The most satisfying function of this skin is its strong adaptability to magic and mental power.

This even gave him the confidence to advance to the second level after he was promoted to the first level.

This is the most precious part of the Elf King’s head, and it also shows that it is rare for Thor to give it to Byron.

However, Byron no longer has the idea that he owes Thor.

Byron exhaled and looked into the distance, “Where will Thor be?”

…

Just as Byron stepped into the no man’s land, another person who had a brief intersection with Thor also ushered in a turning point in his life.

Noah, the boy who once helped Thor find the nest of the quicksand termites, took the initiative to join the hunting team organized by the Wind Demon Lord in order to exchange money to treat his sick brother.

This hunting team is a little different from the past. It recruits a large number of ordinary people and promises that as long as they perform well, they will have the opportunity to become wizard apprentices.

Since meeting Thor, Noah has discovered that not all wizards can only stare at a candle in a daze.

It’s a pity that Thor does not intend to accept him as an apprentice.

Maybe his qualifications are too poor.

But Noah did not give up completely.

After he moved to the new settlement with his father and brother, he has been looking for opportunities to become a wizard apprentice.

But he didn’t expect that the only opportunity would require him to fight for his life.

At this time, it happened that his brother had a continuous high fever due to radiation sickness, which made him put down his last concerns.

His father and brother once gave him the only chance to live, so he is willing to give this opportunity to his brother today.

From then on, Noah joined the hunting team and left his family who had depended on each other for many years.

However, when he joined the hunting team and stepped into the terrifying area he had never set foot in, he realized that he was still naive!

The hunting team will indeed give them the opportunity to become wizard apprentices, but the prerequisite is to survive in the “danger investigation” operations again and again.

Every ordinary person is a pathfinder. They are required to take a potion to temporarily enhance their mental power. It allows them to perceive secrets that they have never discovered before.

It is equivalent to becoming a temporary wizard apprentice.

But at the same time, their weak bodies will show various abnormalities due to the sudden increase in mental power.

Noah once saw with his own eyes that a woman who had just taken the mental potion suddenly went crazy and pulled out all her hair. Then she scratched her scalp in pain, until blood was dripping and bones were exposed.

Other wizards saw the woman’s reaction, and no one came out to help her. Ordinary people didn’t know how to save her, and they didn’t dare to save her.

After that, the dying woman became the first victim before the hunting team set off.

In addition to the woman, the appearance of other people also changed more or less. Only Noah didn’t change at all.

This immediately attracted the attention of several wizards.

They came over and asked Noah to hold a crystal ball and chew a leaf.

However, after Noah did as he was told, the wizards left in disappointment.

This made Noah a little depressed, as if he was not cut out to be a wizard apprentice.

After a few episodes, everyone officially embarked on a hunting trip.

However, ordinary people, including Noah, realized that perhaps it was the best ending for them to die the night before departure, like that woman.

On this day, the group trekked through mountains and rivers to a forest.

This was the fifth forest they had passed through.

Every time they passed through a forest, their hunting team would leave at least one ordinary person behind.

Noah didn’t know what these people were doing. In short, the wizards under the Lord of the Wind Demon would ask them to explore some very dangerous places. Regardless of whether the people who went to explore could come back alive, they would not enter the place they had just explored, but would leave directly.

Along the way, like the footprints left behind, they left only corpses.

And this time, it was finally Noah’s turn to be asked to walk into the forest with a strange and complicated instrument.

Noah’s heart, which had been numb all the way, began to beat wildly. He finally had a sense of reality of being on the verge of death.

He wanted to escape, but he knew that the four wizards behind him would not give him a chance to escape. He

might even implicate his father and brother in the settlement.

Noah swallowed his saliva, and was pushed by the wizard behind him. He began to mechanically move his hands and feet and mechanically move forward.

The wind blew the leaves, the birds chirped, and the insects chirped, all of which turned into chaotic noises in his ears.

The huge fear that death could come at any time made Noah’s mind a mess.

But such a chaotic thought also made him keep moving forward without stopping.

“Rustle–“

The leaves and branches around him rang in unison as if they had agreed, breaking the usual sounds in the forest.

Noah was suddenly awakened, and seemed to realize what he was doing.

His foot, which was about to step out, was suspended in the air. He looked up cautiously and tremblingly, and suddenly found that the trees around him had grown pairs of eyes at some point, and like humans, they slowly bent their trunks and stretched out their branches, as if they wanted to catch humans who dared to walk in the forest.

A leaf touched Noah’s head.

“Wow——”

Noah, who looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, but was actually less than ten years old, could no longer hold back, screamed, and ran wildly.

He no longer cared about the predetermined direction, but just kept moving forward.

“Plop!”

Suddenly, something under his feet tripped Noah.

His eyes quickly followed the falling body. Because the speed was too fast, there was no time to react and adjust his posture.

However, when Noah fell heavily to the ground, he found that it didn’t hurt at all.

He lowered his head and found that there was a dense patch of gray-white mushrooms under him.

These small mushrooms caught Noah like a soft mattress.

He held a mushroom with one hand, supported his body blankly, and looked around, only to find that he didn’t know when he had left the forest.

There was a downhill slope in front of him, and these gray-white mushrooms spread all the way to the bottom of the slope.

Further ahead were a few sparse trees, and behind the trees, rows of huge mushrooms up to three or four meters high.

“How can there be such a big mushroom? There is no such a big pot?”

For some reason, Noah suddenly felt that the fear in his heart was reduced a lot, and he even felt like teasing the mushroom forest in front of him.

I overslept, so I can only write the next chapter at night.
