Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 95

Chapter 95: Leaving the Wizard Tower, You Must Temporarily Transform Back into a Human

“I can leave the tower…” Thor had the illusion of being released from prison.

He felt like he was flying into the sky like a balloon, but at the same time he was empty and couldn’t touch the ground.

He thought that he would only get the chance to leave the tower after he was promoted to level 2.

If he wanted to increase his magic power to 50 joules, he would probably need half a year.

Unexpectedly, an invitation from Senior Byron would bring the time forward.

What task did Senior Byron need his assistance with?

He remembered that he had asked Senior Byron to help him find a relatively complete soul body. I wonder if this invitation is related to this.

“Are you going to leave the tower?” Keli’s voice sounded beside him.

“Yeah.” Thor had a smile on his face.

“Ah, that’s great, I just happen to go out for a while.”

Keli is already a level 2 apprentice, so it’s not surprising that she can get the task of leaving the tower.

But this is also Keli’s first time going out. Thor asked with concern, “Is it a dangerous task?”

Keli shook her head.

She lowered her eyes and said without any emotion: “I’m just going to get some materials cultivated outside the tower and go home by the way.”

She seemed not to want to talk about this matter anymore, and raised her head and raised her voice slightly.

“Since it’s your birthday and you have received the good news that you can go out, let’s go back and eat cake to celebrate.”

Keli grabbed Thor’s shoulder again.

“Eat cake to celebrate your birthday? Can’t cake be eaten at any time? Or is this cake not the kind I understand?” Nick interrupted curiously.

Since Nick was going to go out with Thor, Keli thought about it and invited Nick.

“Please come and taste it together. I just made it.” She nodded.

“Of course it’s a very special cake!” Thor was now in high spirits. Without Keli’s push, he took the initiative to take Nick out.

“Senior, please don’t be polite. I’ll give you more of mine…”

The day of departure was postponed for one day due to some irresistible objective reasons.

Nick was still a little depressed when he drove Thor out of the wizard tower.

Thor, who had stuffed most of the birthday cake to senior Nick, leaned against the window and looked out with great energy.

They left the tower in a double-decker carriage. The carriage was small, and people could only lean against it, not lie down, so it was not particularly comfortable. But the carriage was very fast.

The driver was an adult male slave in the tower. Generally, those who have lived to this age have their own means of survival.

Along the way, the male servant only spoke when necessary, and usually tried to remain quiet and low-profile. Thor and Nick just called him the coachman, not even his name.

Thor could feel the fear coming from him.

Just like he was nervous when facing his mentor and the tower master.

This was because of the disparity in power levels, and the sense of threat generated could not be eliminated by courage alone.

Nick was still lying on the seat to rest. Thor had no one to share the joy of escaping the “cage”, so he could only lean his upper body out of the window like the first time he entered the city.

It was a bit cold in April, but under the spring breeze, greenery had begun to cover the earth.

The junction between the wizard tower and the wasteland in the distance was also dyed green from a single dark yellow.

As the carriage was moving fast, some grass seeds and flying insects hit the wheels and walls, leaving yellow-green traces.

Thor watched the green mountains and dense forests getting closer and closer to him, and even occasionally a few wild mice and rabbits would jump out of his side.

After looking at the new and strange outside world for a while, Thor couldn’t help but look back at the wizard tower.

The gray-black wizard tower stood alone on the plain, surrounded by emptiness and silence, as if nothing would change after thousands of years.

Except for the wizards’ buildings, there was not even a tall shrub around the wizard tower.

It seemed that even the plants were afraid of the wizard tower, keeping an absolute distance from the mysterious world there.

The carriage drove for most of the day in the deserted wilderness and finally arrived at a populated town.

But the carriage did not stop, nor did it even approach those villages, but just sped past them on the road next to them.

Those villages and towns were not prosperous, and there were quite a few houses.

Sol saw some people who went out immediately kneeled on the ground after seeing their carriage, and did not get up for a long time.

Their clothes were simple and old, but no one was n*ked.

People in the outside world seemed to be living well.

The darkness of the wizard tower did not invade ordinary people around. The latter can also enjoy the environmental dividends brought by the wizard tower.

Sol looked for a long time and finally retracted his head. After

looking at the scenery for a long time, he always felt a sense of alienation as an outsider, and it was not as easy as he imagined.

It seemed that the chain from the wizard tower was still firmly tied around his neck.

When Sol sat back in the carriage with a sense of loss, he found that Senior Nick had recovered his spirits and started reading a book at some point.

Thor: “…”

Okay, he thought about it, picked up his heavy backpack, opened the various props and potions he had prepared, chose a less sensitive book, and started reading it.

They then rushed for five days, only stopping to rest in the middle of the night, and even sleeping was replaced by meditation.

It felt like an ascetic.

During the day on the sixth day, Thor raised his head from the shaking book, closed his eyes and pinched his nose.

“Senior Nick, do you know where we are going?”

“Go to Mobian City on the border of the Principality of Kerma, meet up with Byron first, and then… most likely go to Chuishu Valley. But before that, I have to take a detour to do a small task and earn some credits.”

Nick raised his head from the book and blinked at Thor, “It’s rare to come out, and there is still plenty of time, so I can’t make a wasted trip.”

While the two were talking, the carriage suddenly stopped and shook the two.

“Are we there?” Thor hurriedly looked out, but only saw a farmland and a gentle hillside.

There were no towns around.

At the foot of the hill not far away, there was a team of dozens of people on horseback, standing quietly.

Someone in the team was holding a flag with a blue background and silver edges, and in the middle of the flag was a very abstract painting of a rabbit holding a snake.

Nick suddenly put away the book in his hand and got out of the carriage.

Among the people on the opposite side, a tall middle-aged man rode over.

He was wearing a light cloth armor with the same navy blue and silver stripes, with only metal armor sewn on the vital parts. He had a long sword hanging on his waist, and jumped off the horse about ten meters in front of Nick.

Thor saw the man walk up to Nick, kneel on one knee, and perform a chest-touching salute.

Nick raised his hand to let him stand up, his movements were as elegant as a prince.

The two turned their backs to Thor and began to talk in a low voice.

Because of the distance, Thor could not hear what the two talked about specifically. He could only see that the middle-aged man had been very respectful, and Nick still had no emotions.

After a while, Nick came back, but did not get on the carriage.

“There’s something going on at the family side, and I need to go there. I’m afraid you’ll have to go on your own to get to Mobian City.”

Thor asked in surprise, “What about the mission with Senior Byron?”

Nick blinked, his mouth tight, “I can finish the work quickly, and I won’t be late from there to Mobian City. But…”

Thor immediately felt that this turn of events was not good.

Sure enough, he heard Nick continue, “I can only ask you to run the small mission I accepted. I will transfer the mission credits to you.”
