Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 90

Chapter 90 Seaweed Dumplings

The last time Sol met Luo Kai, he was invited to join the mutual aid society in public.

If it weren’t for Teacher Kaz suddenly appearing and calling Sol away, he would have to find a way to politely refuse Luo Kai.

Now that they’ve run into each other, I wonder if he will…

“Last time I asked you if you wanted to join the mutual aid society, I wonder how you’ve thought about it?” Luo Kai smiled and stepped forward, blocking the exit of the library. He

got straight to the point and asked directly.

Sol subconsciously became nervous, but he quickly realized that he was not a pure newcomer now.

“I’m sorry, Senior Luo Kai, I’m too busy with work and don’t have time to participate in any activities. Please forgive me!”

The tone was respectful, but there was no room for negotiation.

Luo Kai took another step forward, and the distance between the two was shortened to less than one meter.

“Are you really that busy? Or are you worried about this?”

He stretched out his hand and bent his index finger twice.

Like a little bug.

The other party actually took the initiative to confess the existence of the parasite to him!

Sol frowned secretly, and it might be difficult to deal with today.

However, to Thor’s surprise, Luo Kai did not push him and continued to invite him.

“Hehehe, I get it. But you don’t need to be so nervous. That little thing is just a safeguard to ensure that the internal information of the mutual aid association is not leaked. For an excellent apprentice like Thor, we naturally believe in your character and will not use such means.”

“Thank you, senior, but I really don’t have time recently.” Thor saw Luo Kai loosening up, and tried to get out through the gap between Luo Kai and the door with his feet sideways.

“Okay. But even if you don’t want to join the mutual aid association, you can still attend our exchange meeting if you are free. You work on the second floor of the east, right? If you are really worried, you can also ask Hayden. The cooperation between the mutual aid association and him has always been very pleasant.”

Exchange meeting? Will Hayden go too?

Thor responded casually, “If there is a chance.”

“That’s great, you can always find Doze and let him take you there.”

After Luo Kai finished speaking, he stepped aside to make way for Thor.

Thor glanced at the two of them, nodded, and quickened his pace to leave the library.

Luo Kai stood there, watching Thor go away with a smile on his face.

After a while, he suddenly said to Doze behind him: “Since all your good friends died, you have become much quieter.”

Doze was shocked and gritted his teeth without saying anything.

Luo Kai did not look back, but raised his hand and patted Doze’s head twice accurately.

“This is a good thing. If people want to grow up, they always have to give up something.”

…

In the next few days, Thor spent all his spare time on the two books “A Crazy Man Teaches You How to Raise a Soul Servant” and “Conjectures about Soul Carriers”.

Both books mentioned methods of preserving spirits and discussed spirit esters. However, the latter is more like an overview, while the former is more specific.

Spirit esters are also a general term for a large category, which can be subdivided into many types.

The time to preserve the soul ranges from a few days to decades. It can also be combined with other means to extend the shelf life of the soul again.

In addition to the basic function of preserving the soul, many spirit esters have some additional abilities. For example, the plastic bone in Thor’s left hand has the effect of improving the perception of dark element particles and increasing magic value.

Good spirit esters are also very precious materials in the wizard world.

Unfortunately, according to the classification in the book, the plastic bone in Thor’s left hand should be the lowest quality spirit ester.

The soul can only be preserved in it for one or two days.

Beyond this time, it will basically dissipate.

There are very few natural spirit esters in the world, and most of them are artificially synthesized, which also means that the synthesis plan can be continuously improved.

But if Thor can improve his plastic bone, he can not only increase the preservation time of the soul, but also enhance his own magic power and dark element perception again.

It is always easier to optimize a wizard body transformation plan than to try out another plan out of thin air.

Thor immediately felt that he had found the right direction. His pitiful magic value finally had the possibility of another leap.

However, this study was equivalent to reading a book beyond the syllabus. Some of the words that occasionally popped up in it did not even have annotations. In order to study these words, Thor had to borrow another book to study or ask his tutor for advice.

This in-depth study made him gain a lot and deepened his understanding of the book “Soul Carrier” given to him by the tower master.

“The tower master should be a wizard who specializes in dark attributes. He asked me to study knowledge about souls and corpses. The wizard tower even used two floors of the east tower as a corpse room. He attaches great importance to it. I wonder what the tower master is studying now. It should be some more advanced wizard topics, right?”

Two months later, Thor finally made some small progress in optimizing spirit esters.

He found that when making the solvent for dissolving plastic bones, one of the materials could be replaced to reduce the impurities in the plastic bones that are not conducive to the preservation of spirits.

He just needed to experiment with what to replace it with.

The diary was of little help at this time.

It could remind Thor which materials should not be put in, but it could not tell Thor which materials would have a positive effect.

Thor could only rely completely on his own knowledge and experience.

Now, he finally understood the research process of a normal wizard. He

proposed conjectures step by step and verified them.

He could only give up those that failed or could not be verified.

That day, he went to the registration office to change a batch of materials and continued to verify.

“This is a storage cloud… Why did I change this thing? Is my brain filled with water?” Thor slapped himself on the forehead.

“I know that plastic bones are afraid of electricity, but can I add electricity to it?”

Thor suddenly had a new idea while talking to himself.

“In fact, plastic bones are afraid of electricity. I should take precautions against this weakness in advance. Otherwise, if I fight with others, this will become my Achilles’ heel! Write it down, write it down!”

Thor hurriedly recorded his new inspiration in another book.

When he was researching, he often had some novel ideas, but because he didn’t have time to think deeply, he could only record them down for later.

After writing down his inspiration, Thor straightened up again and continued to examine the remaining materials.

“So, which one should I try?” Thor pinched his chin and was tangled.

At this time, a black tentacle as thick as a thumb rolled up a test tube of medicine and held it in front of Thor.

“This one? This is alkaline, will it affect the corrosive effect of the dissolving solution…”

“Damn it!”

Thor suddenly realized that something was wrong and jumped up from the chair.

But the black tentacle did not move away from him, but as if it was pulled by something, it got closer to Thor’s face.

The black slender tentacles, the slippery skin, the familiar way of rolling things…

“You, are you the Soul Devouring Swamp?”

Thor saw that the root of the black tentacle was in the blind spot behind him, and quickly turned around to look back.

But the tentacle also rotated synchronously with Thor.

Thor moved, and the black tentacle also moved with the same amplitude.

Thor’s expression was stiff. He raised his hand and wiped the black tentacle behind him.

Finally, he touched the root of the tentacle on the back of his neck.

The tentacle grew out of his neck!

Thor immediately ran to the door of the morgue, thinking about going directly to Teacher Kaz, or turning right to the second-level senior next door.

The black tentacle was still wrapped around the test tube, moving steadily with Thor.

Before his fingers touched the scarlet door of the morgue, Thor, who had just looked flustered, suddenly stopped again.

He looked at his left shoulder.

“Brother Diary, aren’t you working?”

Diary watched the show quietly.

Thor was thoughtful and raised his hand to hold the connection between the tentacle and the neck.

Diary was still quiet.

Thor just started to exert force,

“Chi!”

The black tentacle was pulled off by him!

He touched his neck with his other hand, but did not feel any wounds, and no second tentacle grew.

“So… maybe it’s not parasitic, I just took a small part of it out. But how can it stay active after it leaves the main body?”

The black tentacle can’t speak. Even if it was pulled off by Thor, it still rolled the reagent and sent it to Thor’s face.

Thor calmed down a little and took the test tube of medicine from the black tentacle.

“Well, before studying what you are, I want to see what the medicine recommended by you, a seaweed ball, is for!”
