Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 744

Chapter 734 Exit

“What is this?” Char lowered his head and didn’t notice that there was an eye between his eyebrows.

What Thor handed him was a white tooth wrapped in a gray transparent substance.

It looked like the tooth of a wild animal wrapped in gray amber.

“It’s a tooth.” Thor answered seriously.

Char on the opposite side narrowed his eyes speechlessly, “I can see it.”

Thor smiled, “You still don’t need to know what it is specifically, just know that if you are in a critical moment and have no other way to save yourself, this thing can cause great harm to both you and the enemy.”

Char’s eyes widened speechlessly again, “Then why did you lend it to me? Commit suicide? To avoid being controlled by Beth and becoming her slave?”

“It’s chronic suicide.” Thor was still calm, “As long as you win, you can come back to me before you die, and I can save you. If you lose, at least you can avenge yourself.”

Char was tangled, but still accepted the wrapped tooth.

Then, Thor used the secret language to tell Char how to use the tooth.

Char stared at Thor, wanting to say something but stopping.

Thor patted Char’s back, “Okay…”

The house began to shake again.

The orange cat Kate immediately arched her back, and then stood upright after reacting, “Those tree roots are coming again.”

Char was about to turn into a full moon again, but was stopped by Thor, “Don’t worry about us, just go to where you should go. Beth is recovering faster and faster, and you don’t have much time left.”

“Huh?” The orange cat was stunned and asked first, “What should we do then?”

“If you can beat them, fight them, if you can’t, run away.” Thor said indifferently.

“Ah?” Kate widened her cat eyes.

Char was decisive, “Okay, then take care of yourselves.”

His figure disappeared in an instant, not worrying about who would remove the pollution for him if Thor and the orange cat died under the attack of the tree roots.

It seemed that he suddenly had a lot more trust in Thor.

After Char left, this originally unstable space was immediately invaded by countless thick tree roots and branches.

These tree roots and branches seemed to have their own consciousness, and they immediately attacked Thor and the orange cat as soon as they broke through the room.

The orange cat Kate was nervously preparing to find a gap to fight, but before she could act, Thor grabbed her by the back of her neck and lifted her up.

Kate: “?”

“What are you doing? Put me down!”

Thor said calmly: “The deal has been reached, and there is no need to stay here now.”

Kate was even more confused. Looking at the sharp branches that were about to touch her, she was about to cast a spell, but Thor pulled her and interrupted her.

“Hey!!!”

However, the next second, Kate found that the whole world suddenly stopped.

The broken houses, the flying stones, the roaring tree roots, the sharp spikes…

everything stayed in place quietly.

Only the hand behind him was still holding him in the air.

“What’s going on?”

Then, he heard Thor’s voice.

“If you want to leave here, you need to see it clearly.” Thor looked around the world that suddenly stopped because of his mental suppression, “Just like the old manor, if you can’t see the road in front of you clearly, you can’t find the exit.”

He carried the orange cat and flew into the air, “Kate, in fact, this city… is upside down.”

Without giving Kate time to understand, Thor closed his eyes.

The moment he closed his eyes, Kate suddenly felt dizzy.

When he got used to the dizziness, he suddenly found that the world was upside down.

Gravity came from the top of his head, but he did not fall to the ground.

“What keeps me from falling?”

Kate looked down, and was shocked by what he saw.

The reason why he did not fall to the top of his head was that there were many fine roots under his feet, which wrapped around his limbs and torso!

And these roots had very fine tips, and they were drilling into his body through the pores of his skin!

“Oh my God!” Kate immediately struggled, trying to get rid of the roots.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t pull off the roots on his body.

Just when he was about to try to light a fire, he heard Thor’s calm voice again.

“Don’t be afraid.”

Thor also opened his eyes and saw the roots on his body. He didn’t care at all. He looked up and looked around.

The house built by Char collapsed and fell towards his head. In the dust, many tall black shadows were faintly seen standing

around. There were many square shadows that looked like high-rise buildings in the distance. There were also a few slender black shadows like street lamps nearby.

It was as if the night city that the two had just left took the initiative to find them.

Thor raised his hand and waved, and the wind took away the dust, and the scenery around became clear.

“Oh my God!” Kate sighed weakly beside him, “Have we always been in this place?”

“Yes.” Thor was also a little shocked, “So this is how Beth sacrificed.”

The towering buildings around them were not buildings at all?

They were extremely thick branches that were straight up to the sky.

In Thor’s eyes, they looked like high-rise buildings.

There were nodules like tumors growing in these branches.

And in the middle of the nodules were human heads.

After a closer look, it turned out that there were no human heads growing on it, but that the people were wrapped in the fruit of the tree, with only a head left outside, drooping limply on it.

Thor suspected that the shadows they saw in the dark and the pedestrians they saw in the day were all the souls of these people.

Stupid, mechanical.

They were puppets completely controlled by the inverted tree.

Life and death were all easily controlled by others with their consciousness.

Unlike the sober Char, these trapped people were probably still living in the busy and falsely hopeful city.

Until they died and were forgotten.

The roots on Thor and Kate’s bodies became more and more, and penetrated deeper and deeper into their skin.

“What should we do? Will we become like those people? Trapped here forever?” Kate’s voice was also trembling.

“Meow.” He couldn’t help but shout again.

“Now that we can see the road clearly, we can find the exit to go back.”

After Thor finished speaking, his skin suddenly began to fade, revealing the black bones inside.

As the skin disappeared, the roots wrapped around him suddenly lost their support points.

Just as the roots tried to move forward and continue to wrap around Thor’s bones, several gray tentacles stretched out and twisted the roots in turn. With a slight twist, they broke the other.

Black smoke poured out from the end of the roots.

That was the pollution of the Inverted Tree.

When Thor was still a first-level wizard, he didn’t dare to get entangled with the roots because of this pollution, but now…

the black viscous liquid was spit out by the suction cups on the tentacles, sprayed directly onto the black mist, and then stained the nearby roots.

These black liquids were like piranhas suddenly put into the water. As soon as they came into contact with the black smoke and roots, they began to corrode desperately, and spread rapidly, directly clearing all the nearby roots.

Kate was carried by Thor, and naturally stained with black liquid.

When it saw the corroded roots, it thought it would fall into the same situation, and it was scared and cried “meow meow”.

After crying for a while, he realized that the black liquid on his body had only corroded his roots, and he was not hurt at all.

The branches and roots around were instinctively afraid of the black liquid released by Thor, and they curled up and retreated one by one.

A large number of roots retreated, revealing a light spot not far from Thor’s feet.

“There! There!” Kate immediately realized that there was the exit from the upside-down tree, “It turned out to have been underground all along!”

Thor looked up at the top of his head for the last time.

There was a sea of black fire, and countless figures were struggling in the sea of fire.

Then, he restored his appearance and took Kate with him to fly towards the light spot.

Crossing the light spot is like crossing into another world.

With a flash of light, Thor and Kate returned to the bare tree stump with a very fresh cross-section.
