Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 660
Chapter 653: Demon Seeding? Vaccine?
Noah didn’t know why Scorpion suddenly lay on the ground.
But when Thor cast the spell of knowing languages on him, he finally understood that Scorpion had regarded Thor as a god.
In the wizard world, some backward places or remote areas of the continent also have people who believe in gods.
However, most people still respect wizards.
And the more powerful the wizards are, the more ashamed they are to believe in gods. This
is even more true in the unowned land.
Even if those dwarves or barbarians are powerful, humans who are slaves of wizards will despise them.
So, Noah thought Thor would refuse and correct the name of Scorpion at first.
However, Thor acquiesced.
Noah’s eyes widened slightly.
He looked at Scorpion, who was becoming more and more respectful to Thor and answering questions seriously, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.
Thor asked Xiaozao to split an avatar, pulling Noah while carrying Scorpion, and he performed the flying spell to return to Noah’s hut as quickly as possible.
After returning to the hut, Thor did not let Scorpion in, but started to question him directly on the hill outside.
“Where are you from? What are you doing here?”
After being put down by Xiaozao, Scorpion wanted to lie on the ground again, but was lifted up by Thor’s neck.
“I don’t like you lying on the ground to talk, just stand and answer.”
Scorpion hesitated, “But my grandfather said that we should pay the greatest respect to the gods.”
“Then did your grandfather tell you that the gods hate disobedient believers?”
Scorpion was stunned, and it took him a long time to understand what the believer meant, but he still compromised and did not try to lie on the ground again.
“I come from my tribe, on the edge of this black death plain.”
Scorpion said that his father died when he went out to find food, and his mother married other men in the tribe. Because no one was willing to raise him, he was forced to become an adult.
And adults must go outside the tribe to hunt a monster back, otherwise they will not be qualified to start a family in the original tribe.
But Scorpion’s ability is not strong, and for various reasons, the people in the tribe did not help him complete the hunting.
So he originally wanted to go a little deeper into the Black Death Plains and set a trap to catch a gold-eating rat, but he didn’t expect that he accidentally went too deep and attracted the withered ghost vines. In the end, he was rescued by Noah who was opening a map.
Noah also didn’t expect that the Black Desert, which had always been so quiet that it could drive people crazy, was so dangerous.
Thor asked Noah not to speak and maintain his character.
“Where is your tribe?”
Scorpion looked back and looked around, “I can’t see it clearly now, but I can see it clearly when it gets light. My tribe is between two mountains. It takes twelve days and nights to walk here.”
Scorpion raised his hands, but his fingers were not enough, so he counted the deformed hands at the tail vertebrae. He
almost couldn’t count them.
Thor continued to ask: “How many people are there in your tribe?”
Scorpion shook his head directly, “I don’t know, a lot.”
This was because he couldn’t count with his fingers.
“How many places like your tribe are there?”
“I know there are three, but we rarely interact with each other. Normally, we only interact with each other when we change species.”
After asking Scorpion a few more questions, Thor learned that the people here basically live underground, surrounding the Black Death Plains where he is.
This Black Death Plain is very dangerous, but there are many monsters. Some weak monsters are the food source for most people.
However, few people enter the deepest part of the Black Death Plain, which is where Thor is. Because those who enter are either crazy or dead.
Finally, Thor asked about Scorpion’s third hand, which he was most interested in.
Scorpion didn’t think there was anything wrong with having such a hand. He just felt that his hand was too weak.
“Does everyone have a hand here?”
Scorpion felt that the god in front of him was not as omnipotent as his grandfather said. He held his third hand that seemed to be burnt.
“Are you talking about the magic limb? We all have it, but the shape of each person’s magic limb is different. Some people have wings like birds, and some people have mouths like crocodiles.”
“Every child must plant a magic limb when he is born. Those who survive will have their own magic limbs, and those who die will be sold.”
“What if you don’t plant a magic limb?” Thor asked.
Scorpion looked a little surprised. He thought about it carefully and finally dug out a deep memory. “The only child I remember who didn’t plant a magic limb turned into a monster when he was five years old. I heard that he ate everyone in his tribe.”
According to Scorpion, people who don’t plant a magic limb may turn into monsters when they are a few years old.
Noah listened with great interest, but he kept holding back and didn’t interrupt without Thor’s permission.
“Grow a demon? A demon limb? If you don’t grow a demon, you’ll turn into a monster.” Thor crossed his arms and pinched his chin with one hand. “It’s a bit like a newborn baby getting vaccinated. But the vaccine here is quite strong. It sounds like the survival rate of vaccination is not very high, and you can’t last for a few years without vaccination.”
“It should be related to the black fans everywhere in this world.”
“Maybe the people in this world have been studying black fans for a long time. Their research results may help me and my senior’s inertization formula.”
The result of the question was that Thor was more determined to explore this world in depth.
But there is no rush now.
Noah still needs time to grow, and he also needs to prepare for his promotion to the third level.
And it should be safer to explore this chaotic domain in depth after he becomes the third level.
Now let’s just have a simple contact with this world through Scorpion.
Thor stretched out his hand to the deformed arm that Scorpion was holding in his arms, “Let me take a look.”
Scorpion was a little nervous, but still controlled the burnt deformed arm and placed it in Thor’s palm.
Thor’s mental power penetrated deeply into it, “Sure enough, there are also black powders in the magic limbs, but they are slightly more active than the black powders underground.”
Thor asked Scorpion about the way to breed magic, and Scorpion told him the truth.
“You just said that your magic limbs are not strong. How do you compare them?”
Scorpion replied more carefully, “My magic limbs are just stronger and not very long. They can be used for sneak attacks occasionally, but they are not as strong as those of others in the tribe. So my new father didn’t want to raise me, so he lied and said that I was an adult. In fact, I am only eight years old, and I am still two years away from ten years old…”
Scorpion counted on his fingers, “There are still two years to go!”
So this is what is called forced growth – lying about age.
Thor nodded, suddenly raised his hand and tapped Scorpion’s deformed arm twice, and then stretched out his arm and pointed a finger at Scorpion’s forehead.
Scorpion was shocked, thinking that the gods were going to attack him, and fell down.
However, when he sat on the ground, he found that he was not dead or injured, but his scalp was a little itchy.
Thor waved his hand again, and Scorpion, who was about to ask what happened, rolled his eyes and fainted.
“I have planted a parasite in the body of the scorpion. I will teach you how to control it later. You live here with the scorpion first. Unless you can perform level 1 witchcraft, don’t rush to find those tribes.”
Noah nodded repeatedly.
“When I have time, I will go to see those tribes first. For the time being, you should walk around the hut and be careful of the monsters they talk about.”
Noah continued to nod obediently.
Thor left him new magic crystals and a few scrolls, and when the time came, he left the chaotic domain.
After Thor left, Noah, who had been obedient, suddenly looked at the scorpion.
“God?” He smiled, “I actually regarded the mentor as a god. This is really a backward and ignorant world.”
“But… it would be nice to let my mentor become a god.”
His eyes gradually became fanatical, “The mentor wants to explore this world. My power alone is too weak, and the mentor is very busy… Then I can assign this task to the believers.”
“By then, this world will belong to the mentor! The mentor will become the real god of this world!”
Noah grinned and laughed very happily!
