Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 747

Chapter 737 Wishing Candles

Beth launched a city-wide sacrifice.

But it was not as smooth as Dean Pound had thought.

Beth was more forced to launch the sacrifice in advance.

Time moved forward.

Before Thor left the inverted tree, due to the special nature of the space, Char had already arrived at the tree’s heart space.

The moment Char came in, Beth discovered his presence.

“You actually came back by yourself. I thought you would show up at the last moment.”

The voice was hoarse and without any emotion.

If Char had not known that he had completely offended Beth, he would probably have thought that the other party was really calm.

Char still looked like a human, but his body was glowing slightly.

The light illuminated the entire tree’s heart space.

It also illuminated Bethstana at the bottom.

She was lying n*ked on a suspended hollow witchcraft circle.

n*ked Bethstana was not really n*ked, because she only had a small amount of white skin left on her cheeks, neck and limbs, and the rest of the body had become dense roots.

There are almost thousands of roots, hanging like silk ribbons on a loom.

There are also many tiny hairs on the roots.

It seems to be a product of combining the characteristics of human skin with tree roots.

It indicates that Bestana does not need to see Char to sense his arrival.

At the same time, Char also knows this.

He knows even more that Bestana relies on these hairy roots to control every spirit in the Inverted Tree.

When they are not needed, the spirits will remain motionless according to the established design, or act in a single and repetitive manner.

But when Bestana needs them, those spirits can become killing weapons at any time.

They are extremely loyal to their masters and fight to the death with their enemies.

Until the last bit of energy of their spirits is exhausted.

Char understands this too well, so he will risk his soul to steal the tree seeds.

He did not tell Thor that the tree seeds are in his body.

First of all, this is his only reliance to fight Bestana. With this tree seed, Bestana will worry about whether he will destroy the tree seeds when he is forced into a corner.

Secondly, Char was temporarily unable to remove the tree seeds from his body. Because he could not really control the tree seeds.

However, if Char could really defeat Bestana, whose movements were restricted at this time, he would not mind fulfilling his deal with Thor and handing over the tree seeds to the other party.

“Bestana, I’m back. I know your current condition is very bad. Even if you force the sacrifice, there is a great possibility of failure. So I came back. As long as you give me a promise, I will return the tree seeds to you, so that your chances of success will be higher.”

For some reason, when Char said these words, he suddenly remembered Thor, who had made a deal with him before, and the expression on his face unconsciously learned Thor’s movements and demeanor.

Bestana was indeed very weak, and she knew that Char knew this, so she did not hide it.

“What promise do you need?”

Char straightened his chest. “I want to become an inverted tree branch like Pound. I can work for you later, but you have to set me free when I can survive independently.”

“Okay, come here. After I take out the tree seeds in your body, I will give you a branch for you to live on.”

Bestana was so straightforward that Char hesitated.

“Why is the process different from what I thought?”

But despite his uneasiness, Char had no way out.

He flew towards Bestana like a warrior who was ready to die.

The dense roots actively split to both sides, making way for Char.

Char continued to fly forward. “I don’t believe you. I need to sign a witchcraft contract. You and I are both in spirit form now, but I have a contract that can be signed without magic power.”

As Char said this, a candle suddenly appeared in his palm.

The candle was white and ordinary, just like the white wax used by ordinary nobles.

As soon as the candle was taken out, it automatically lit up, and the flame was stable. No one knew what was burning.

Bestana, who had not paid much attention to it, also focused her attention.

The witchcraft props that can be stored in the spirit body must be very extraordinary.

Two roots suddenly rolled towards Char, as if to snatch the candle from his hand.

Char hurriedly shouted: “Don’t move, or I will leave immediately…”

But when he was halfway through his words and his attention was all attracted by the roots in front of him, a man with a black beard suddenly appeared behind him. The man hugged Char from behind and bit his shoulder.

Char immediately realized that Bestana had no intention of making a deal with him and had already prepared an ambush behind him.

He was about to break free from the person behind him, but he found that his shoulder was numb.

The numbness spread quickly along his shoulder, and Char immediately felt that his consciousness began to slow down.

He turned his head with difficulty and finally saw the appearance of the man behind him.

Char had never seen this man in the Inverted Tree.

He had a full beard, and the skin where there was no beard was all ulcerated.

No one knew how a person could make his soul look like this.

The man who ambushed Char was naturally Wilde’s soul that was brought to the tree center space by Bestana.

Although he was very dissatisfied with Bestana for pulling out his soul without even saying hello, he was powerless to resist at this point. He could only help her control Char as Bestana requested.

When he bit Char’s shoulder, he used all his strength to stimulate his spirit body and let the spirit wave pass into Char’s spirit body.

At the same time, he also passed the spirit pollution lurking in his spirit body. As expected,

Char, who had just come into contact with the spirit pollution, was controlled by this overbearing pollution. For a while, except for desperately resisting the pollution that entered his spirit body, he could no longer resist.

Wilde immediately took Char to fly to Bestana in the center of the space.

“Hurry up, although the pollution of the elves is overbearing, it is not completely irresistible.”

Char was sent to Bestana, with fear in his eyes.

However, when the two were less than three meters apart and Bestana had already begun to scan Char’s spirit, Char, who had been struggling in numbness, suddenly blew a breath at the white candle in his hand.

Because his face was numb, the air Char blew was very weak.

Normally, such an airflow could hardly shake the flame.

But Char blew so gently, and the steadily burning white candle suddenly went out.

Then the candle in Char’s hand disappeared, and turned into a transparent crystal bottle in the next second.

The crystal bottle contained the same transparent liquid, which looked like the most ordinary spring water.

Before others could react, Char’s fingers gently pulled out the cork on the crystal bottle.

Then, a sweet fragrance spread out.

Just when Char smelled this breath, the numbness on his body quickly faded.

It was as if he had met a nemesis.

The most shocked was Wilde behind him.

Because he also smelled the scent of the bottle of spring water that suddenly appeared.

The pollution of the elves that had troubled him for many years was so easily eliminated by the immersion of this sweet smell!

Wilde immediately became excited, and regardless of Bestana being next to him, he blurted out, “What is that bottle of water?”

Char didn’t say anything, but pressed his backhand on Wilde’s face. A flash of light appeared, and the other party was instantly moved out of the tree heart space.

Char couldn’t kill Wilde immediately, but he had the tree heart, so he could throw this unexpected place out first.

After dealing with Wilde, Char immediately rushed to Bestana, with a white tooth sealed in gray amber in his hand.

Bestana didn’t pay any attention to the tooth in Char’s hand that had no threatening aura, but just stared at the crystal bottle in Char’s other hand, and suddenly shouted like crazy: “Wishing candle! What you just took was a wishing candle! The legendary cursed object is actually in your hand!”
