Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 745
Chapter 735 Dean Pound
“Meow! We’re back!”
Kate felt Thor release his neck and immediately jumped to the ground.
After Thor released the orange cat, he immediately looked around, “Has the Whitebeard wizard not come out yet?”
But he had been walking around the city at night for a long time and didn’t find Whitebeard, so he thought he had found the exit.
In fact, if Thor hadn’t been looking for an opportunity to steal tree seeds, he wouldn’t have stayed in there for so long.
“Oh, don’t worry about Wilde, he’s a thief and won’t die in there.”
After being brought out by Thor, Kate was obviously more flattering.
The black liquid just now made him feel scared.
He was afraid that Thor would be unhappy and sneer at him.
“Wilde?” Thor heard the name and suddenly realized, “It’s unlikely that we have the same name. I didn’t expect the captain of the land boat to hide here. Does he already know who I am?”
While Thor was thinking, Kate was still sighing.
“Baidong College has become like this. I guess their dean has also become a flower bud. The one we are looking for… eh?”
Kate stopped talking halfway because he found that a person suddenly appeared on the large tree stump that was originally empty.
An old man with disheveled hair, wrinkled face and confused eyes.
“Dean Pound.”
Although he had not seen him for a long time and his appearance and demeanor had changed greatly, Thor recognized his identity at the first time.
Baidong College, Dean Pound.
“Is he Dean Pound?” Kate was delighted and was about to go over, but stopped when she saw what was behind Pound. “Those are the roots we encountered!”
Behind Dean Pound, there were dense and long roots.
These roots were connected to the center of the stump.
The long and thin root canals were like human blood vessels, and you could vaguely see something inside being transported to the old Dean Pound.
“How come these roots are here?”
Thor walked forward slowly. “These are the roots of the Inverted Tree. It’s normal for them to appear inside or outside. Don’t get close to them.”
After saying that, Thor walked forward and came to Pound. “Dean, do you still remember me?”
The bewildered dean heard Thor’s voice, raised his head a little, and then quickly sank down again.
“Is he like the shadows inside, and has lost his self-awareness?” Kate was obviously very concerned about the dean.
He was still looking forward to getting a way to open the door from the dean.
Thor also wanted to have a good exchange with this dean Pound.
Although the other party was not the actual controller of Baidong College. But he had led the college for so many years, and he must have a better understanding of Beth and the Inverted Tree.
Although he had asked Xia to steal the tree seeds, it did not prevent Thor from trying again through the channel of Dean Baidong.
In order to ensure success, he did not mind making a deal with the dean.
“Can you hear me?” Thor released a mental force and scanned Dean Pound’s body.
Unexpectedly, the opponent’s physical condition was very good, almost comparable to that of a peak second-level wizard.
But Dean Pound’s mental state must be problematic.
When Thor used his mental power to scan him, his mental body did not even have the most basic stress response.
“Maybe the soul is inside the Inverted Tree, and only the body is still outside?”
Thor raised his hand, and his index finger turned into a tentacle, tapping on Pound’s forehead.
After a moment, Thor let go of his hand, “Strange, the spirit is still there, and there is no excessive pollution.”
Thor took two steps back, observed for a moment, and suddenly laughed, “I have encountered too much pollution recently, and my brain has become rigid. This is not the effect of pollution, it is witchcraft.”
He cast a 0-level “clear mind” on Dean Pound.
Although it is only a 0-level witchcraft, when cast by him, a 3rd-level wizard, the effect is almost comparable to 3rd and 4th-level witchcraft.
After a moment, Dean Pound, who looked numb, suddenly trembled all over, and the whole person almost fell down, but was pulled back by the roots that pierced into his body from behind.
He immediately broke out in sweat on his face. Obviously, although Thor made him sober, he also made him regain consciousness and was tortured by the roots behind him.
But the dean was also a ruthless person. Although he was almost knocked down by the sudden pain, he quickly adapted to it, and endured the pain behind him, looking up to face Thor.
“It’s you?” Bond smiled. “I heard that you went to the Borderlands. I didn’t expect to see you again. You’ve been promoted to the second-level wizard. You’re indeed Gorza’s student.”
Thor turned his head to look behind Dean Bond. “Don’t you need to care about your condition?”
Bond turned his head slightly to check his back, but his neck was in pain as soon as it was twisted halfway.
Even though he was already an old wizard with a lot of experience, he couldn’t stand it.
He smiled miserably and said, “It’s better not to care. This will relieve some of the pain.”
Since the other party didn’t worry about his body, Thor didn’t waste any more words. “Beth turned the bodies of everyone in the inner city into ashes to cover up the fact that she absorbed the spirits of these people?”
Bond immediately showed a painful expression.
Even Thor couldn’t tell whether this emotion was true or false.
“I wanted to save her…but she lied to me. She is no longer the original Bestana. In order to revive, she even ignored the inheritance of the academy.”
“Inheritance? You mean the Inverted Tree? Beth’s resurrection also hurt the Inverted Tree, right?”
Pound smiled bitterly, “Although I don’t know where you know about the Inverted Tree, but you are right. Forcibly resurrecting Beth will consume a lot of the Inverted Tree’s essence, which will cause irreversible damage to the Inverted Tree and even cause the tree to wither. In the past, we have always deliberately slowed down the progress of resurrection to ensure that the Inverted Tree will not be damaged too much.
But when that madman Xia stole the tree seeds, Beth and the Inverted Tree were both severely damaged. At this time, according to our original plan, we must first protect the Inverted Tree, but Beth, she chose to protect herself at the first time, almost overdrawing the Inverted Tree’s essence!”
At this point, Dean Pound’s face showed pain again, “She was obviously not such a person. She was obviously sacrificed to protect the inheritance of the academy.”
Time can change a person, and so can experience.
Thor is also a person who died once, but he forgot the process of death.
Thinking about it now, this may be his luck.
However, Thor had no time to lament Pound’s experience. He frowned and said, “Char stole the seeds of the Inverted Tree…”
Kate’s beard trembled behind him, and
he forced himself to hold back his laughter. Seeing the person who suppressed him in trouble, Kate was very happy, “He made a deal with him and treated him first, but he didn’t give him the thing he wanted right on his body! He lost money, right?”
Pound nodded and confirmed Thor’s guess.
Thor touched his chin, “It shouldn’t be.”
He narrowed his eyes and confirmed that the theory of cause and effect had been achieved. The other party was only at the first level. Even if he had become the second level in the Inverted Tree, he could not resist the guidance of the theory of cause and effect of the fate line.
“Since the theory of cause and effect has been achieved, either Char didn’t know that he stole the tree seeds. But this is unlikely. Or he couldn’t give me the tree seeds in his state at that time.”
Thor was not angry. He thought to himself, “Fortunately, I habitually kept a hand.”
Then, he smiled at Pound again, “Dean Pound, let’s make a deal?”
