Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 683
Chapter 675 You Win
For a moment, it seemed like a few seconds, or maybe a few minutes, Kismet felt as if he had been sealed inside the eye of the storm.
There was no light in all directions, and no sound could be heard.
He vaguely felt that there seemed to be someone in front of him.
Maybe it was Lucy who was sucked in before, or maybe it was just his illusion.
The corners of his mouth still maintained the arc that was raised a second before he was frozen. It seemed that
he didn’t care even if he was frozen in order to seal the eye of the storm. But his fate did not end there.
Before the ice lock was about to completely freeze Kismet’s consciousness, cracks suddenly appeared in the rock-solid ice.
These cracks spread around Kismet just right, but did not touch the black hole in the center at all.
Then, Kismet’s hands, feet, torso, head, and every part of his body appeared with entangled white threads.
These thin threads were like the strings of a puppet, all over his body.
“What a pity, Miss Lucy.” As the ice broke, Kismet’s mouth corners rose again. “Without the permission of the diary, you can’t kill me. Just like I can’t kill myself.”
Then the thin line wrapped around his body suddenly tightened, without leaving any marks on his skin, but pulling his whole body out of the broken ice little by little.
Fresh and cold air suddenly rushed into his chest and lungs, and at the same time, Kismet’s stagnant brain started to work again.
He found himself floating in the air and quickly moving away from the old manor.
Then…
“Pah!”
The elegant Kismet fell at Thor’s feet.
After two seconds of silence, he got up from the ground and saw Thor standing beside him.
Thor didn’t look at Kismet at this time, but said to Corey: “You can continue.”
Corey stared at Thor’s hands for a while, and then reactivated the ice lock magic circle that had just been suspended for a few seconds.
Because Kismet had been rescued by Thor, the mirror he was holding naturally moved away from its original position.
However, the eye of the storm had been sealed temporarily, giving Corey a chance to pause and catch her breath.
While Thor was saving people, she had people rearrange the mirrors for mapping at the original center point.
Although the original magic circle was not powerful enough, it was still okay to use it to reinforce the seal.
Kismet’s face was still covered with dirt and grass seeds, and he just sat on the ground without getting up.
Thor was in no mood to care about him at this time.
Just now, in order to save people, he used the witchcraft he had never used in front of outsiders for the first time, which was developed based on the fate line – Dawn Pull.
This witchcraft can only be used on himself and people who are close to him.
By pulling each other’s fate lines, the surrounding environment can be slightly affected, and in the darkness representing death, a glimmer of the direction that may usher in the dawn can be found.
This witchcraft is very abstract. Not only can it only work on people who are close to Thor, but it can only work in dangerous moments.
So after Thor developed this witchcraft, he never used it, and everything was theoretical research.
This time, they were able to find the weakness of the ice layer and rescue Kismet without affecting the eye of the storm. It was probably because Kismet was extremely lucky that he was able to seize that ray of hope.
After performing this sorcery, Thor’s mental strength almost immediately weakened. Now he could only stand there and could do nothing.
It was not until Herbert and Pearl worked together to press the frozen eye of the storm back into the ground that Thor recovered a little and turned to Kismet, who was still sitting next to him.
“Were you sleepwalking just now?” Thor’s voice sounded flat, but it was faintly reprimanding. “I created a gap with great difficulty, but you were just standing there in a daze? Do you really want to be sealed with Lucy?”
Kismet raised his head and suddenly started laughing.
“Hahahaha…”
“Hahahahahahahahahaha…”
He laughed so hard that he fell backwards on the ground, as if he had a seizure.
“Are you happy that you survived the disaster?”
“Haha… Huh, I’m happy for the surprises you’ve created time and time again.” Seeing Pearl and Herbert flying over from the corner of his eye, Kismet immediately sat up, “I thought you would use the power of the diary to save me, but now I find that it’s not entirely true. Of course I’m happy.”
Thor blinked and didn’t reply.
When Kismet was in crisis just now, the diary didn’t give any hints.
But the other party seemed to be sure that the diary or some power would be able to save him.
Thor found out early on that Kismet was related to the diary, and now it seems that this connection is closer than he thought.
“Could Kismet be something like a diary spirit?”
While thinking, Pearl and Herbert landed beside Thor at the same time.
Pearl looked at Kismet with a complicated expression, and was more or less surprised by his performance just now.
“Anyway, thank you for cooperating with us to complete the seal of the eye of the storm in the crisis just now.”
Kismet still had a smile on his face, but it was not as exaggerated as before.
“I just know clearly that only by sealing the eye of the storm can I survive. Besides, I am also the representative of Sky City here.”
“What were you laughing at just now?” Herbert’s face was still serious. His eyes wandered between Thor and Kismet, and he seemed to doubt the relationship between the two.
“Isn’t it worth a good laugh to survive in a situation where you are almost certain to die?” Kismet gave a completely different answer from before.
“Humph.” Herbert snorted and turned to ask Thor, “What kind of witchcraft did you use when you shot the arrow and saved Kismet just now?”
Thor replied calmly: “My own witchcraft based on the ice lock array.”
Herbert was obviously not satisfied with this answer. He wanted to continue asking, but he heard Pearl say on the side: “Okay, now is not the time to relax. We are not sure whether the eye of the storm is really sealed. Next, everyone go back and have a good rest. I will let a few wizards and apprentices stay to observe whether there are any changes in the eye of the storm. If something unexpected happens, we need to gather again.”
Herbert was persuaded by Pearl, but his eyes on Thor were still disturbing.
Thor was under pressure from a third-level wizard, and tried to let his emotions show on his face.
“Okay.” Herbert took a step back, “Then everyone go back and rest, but remember to stay alert. Once you receive the signal, you must gather as quickly as possible.”
After that, Herbert and Pearl called a group of people to look after the status of the eye of the storm.
Kismet secretly ran away during this period, saying that he was afraid of being caught and killed again.
Because he had no chance to ask in detail, Thor still didn’t know why Kismet was stunned for a moment, which directly led to the fleeting chance of escape.
But now the most critical eye of the storm crisis has been resolved.
After the eye of the storm array was taken over by someone, Corey took the initiative to come over.
“I will report Lucy’s rebellion to the Stargate Council. If you hadn’t reacted quickly this time, our ice lock array would have failed.”
Thor did not modestly refuse, “It’s not just Lucy’s matter, but also Luke. These two people have close relations with the Stargate Council. If they are not handled properly, it may cause big trouble.”
Corey, a member of the Glowing Family, is not worried about this.
“It doesn’t matter. Luke died in the eye of the storm, and Lucy almost destroyed the seal for personal grudges. These are facts. The Stargate Council will not make things difficult for you and me.”
After saying that, Corey lowered her head and remained silent for a moment.
Just as Thor was thinking about whether he could say goodbye and leave, she suddenly spoke with difficulty: “Can you…can you…can you tell me how you calculated the angle and multiple of the magic circle so quickly at that time?”
“It’s nothing, just substitute a fixed formula. Of course, this formula is difficult to derive.”
“Formula?” Corey’s eyes widened, and her round eyeballs almost fell out of her eye sockets.
After a long while, she lowered her eyes, as if she had suffered a great blow.
“I was still complacent about my mapping formula, but you had already discovered the change method and worked out a unified formula…” “
…Uh, actually the formula…”
“You won.” “
?”
“I was still lucky before, but now it seems that you have already worked out the ice lock magic circle. Don’t worry, I am not an ignorant person. This time, the third-level selection task is…you won.”
