Diary of a Dead Wizard

Thor slowly gritted his teeth.

Such cold truth made his breathing stagnate. But deep in his heart, there was a voice telling him that this was the way the world should be.

Winnie seemed not to be satisfied with how hard the truth had hit Sol. She approached Sol again, and the black shadow leaned forward and stayed in his ear.

A small voice sounded, "Do you know how many years Gorsa has been at the peak of the second level?"

"If you don't understand the meaning of this sentence, let me give you an example. Do you know why a second-level apprentice who cannot advance to a third-level apprentice at the age of thirty will be kicked out of the tower?"

"Why would the Wizard's Tower let them go instead of squeezing people to death?"

"Because for people who have stayed at the peak of their level for a long time, their known knowledge will be constantly polluted by unknown things from above. If those second-level apprentices are left in the tower, they will be polluted and turn into monsters sooner or later. You work in the corpse room, so you should know that All polluted things will be sent to the garbage dump. Even if you are as powerful as Gorsa, you are not willing to take the risk of using it."

Thor vaguely felt a sweet breath blowing on his cheek, but after the sweetness, it was extremely bitter.

Winnie continued, "You said Gorsa...is he becoming more and more like a monster?"

Thor finally couldn't help but took a big step back, hitting his back on the table, and the pain and fear made him take a big breath.

"Ho...ho..."

Thor couldn't help but think, if the tower owner turned into a monster, how many living people would be left in this wizard tower?

Just when Sol was trapped in the terrible future described by Winnie, a gentle voice suddenly sounded at the door.

"Yura, don't scare Thor."

Thor and Winnie turned their heads at the same time, and saw Gortha, wearing a reddish-brown cloak, walking from among the corpses.

When Gorsa passes by, those corpses will automatically move to both sides, waiting for people to pass by before going back.

When he reached Winnie and Thor, Gorza opened his arms and lifted his cloak, revealing his body wrapped in pink bandages.

"come back."

Winnie's dark shadow only stayed in place.

But Golza was extremely patient with her and said, "Come back... be good."

Only then did Winnie glance at Sol. Her red eyes couldn't tell what she was thinking.

She walked over, opened her arms and embraced Gorsa, and then, like raindrops on the lake, she melted into the other person's body and disappeared.

Sol suddenly came to his senses. When Winnie left and looked back at him, he seemed to see a beautiful and cold woman's face.

Gorsa retracted his hand, and his broad cloak swayed slightly, once again covering his body completely.

He lowered his head and said softly to Thor: "You don't need to pay attention to Yula's words, especially the part about resurrection. I will tell you these when you advance to level three."

Sol couldn't help but step forward, "Tower Master, is the spirit just now really Mrs. Yora?"

Gorza nodded, "It's her."

He chuckled, "Did she tell you that she was just a replica and named herself Winnie?"

Sol didn't know how long his conversation with Winnie had been heard, but there was no point in hiding it. After all, Winnie herself was sucked into her body.

He nodded.

"She is like this every time. When she is happy, she says she is Yula, and when she is unhappy, she is Winnie." The corners of Golsa's eyes were crooked, but then dimmed quickly, "I have tried my best to keep her consciousness intact, but When replenishing Yula's soul energy, she was still somewhat contaminated by the outside world. Therefore, her cognition was also affected."

"There is no way at the moment. The conscious body is a more fragile existence than the soul. Sometimes a trivial impact from the outside world or a change in one's own thoughts can cause great harm to the conscious body. From one extreme to another extreme."

Gorsa stretched out his right hand from under his cloak, holding an old and rusty oil lamp on his fingertips, with a light layer of oil still inside.

"The body is the cornerstone of the soul. Don't try to separate your soul from the body if you have nothing to do."

Sol paused and reached out to take the oil lamp.

The lamp was so small that he could hold it with one hand.

The wick is a small noodle thread burning steadily.

Did the tower owner realize that his soul had left his body? Or did Winnie who was following him tell the tower master?

"I don't know why I suddenly left my body last night. It shocked me. Fortunately, I went back later."

Saul explained, trying to show that he was not actively seeking death.

"Take this soul-inducing oil lamp with you and put a few drops of blood and saliva from your fingertips into the oil. If your soul leaves the body again, it will help you return to your body."

Thor held the oil lamp tightly, so the tower owner thinks that the soul leaving the body will still happen?

"Thank you. But do you know why I am in this situation?"

"You already have a suspicion in your mind, go and verify it instead of listening to others."

The corners of Gorsa's eyes gently curved again, "If you want to thank me, grow up as soon as possible. You must at least reach level three before you can help me."

Sol nodded quickly, "Yes, Tower Master, I will definitely work hard."

Gorsa smiled and suddenly disappeared in front of Thor's eyes.

In the huge warehouse, Saul was finally the only living person left.

Without the worry of evil spirits possessing him, he didn't have to look for help.

Sol held the soul-inducing oil lamp and walked back to the table in a few steps and sat down.

He was lying on the table with his arms around his face, and no one could see his expression clearly at this time.

Before three o'clock in the afternoon, Saul moved all his experimental materials from the corpse room on the second floor of the East Tower to the warehouse on the first floor of the East Tower.

Then he took advantage of lunch time to go to Senior Byron, intending to transfer the contribution from the sailboat to Byron as a reward for saving his life.

Unsurprisingly, Senior Byron accepted Sol's thank you gift without any hesitation.

"When did you come back?" Byron calculated his share and returned some credits to Thor.

"Actually, I came back yesterday." Sol said with a wry smile.

Byron glanced at Sol, but thought that Sol did not return to the dormitory after returning to the tower, but was with the tower owner, so he didn't ask any questions.

"What are you going to do about Wright?"

Thor knew what Byron meant and said with a smile: "What he did at that time was actually the norm in the wizarding world. Instead, senior, you came back to me, which really surprised me."

"I took action only when I was certain." Byron looked indifferent and didn't think what he did was surprising. "If you die, I will run away immediately, and I will not avenge you."

Sol shook his head, "Don't seniors even take this life-saving grace to heart?"

"I just provided some assistance. You have to rely on yourself to survive. As for that little favor..." Byron raised the account book in his hand and said, "It's worth it."

Sol smiled obediently, there was no need to talk about favors.

"By the way, where does Senior Wright live?"

Looking at Sol's seemingly innocent smile, Byron silently mourned for Wright, and then reported Wright's dormitory number and the laboratory he often visited without hesitation.

The information is very detailed.

But Saul didn't go to Wright, this matter was not urgent.

He moved while he still had some time.

Keli next door hasn't come back yet.

He was a little regretful, but this was the rule for normal missions. Who would come back in a few days like him?

With no time to rest, Sol exchanged some things he needed and returned to the second warehouse.

……

While Sol was busy, the news that he had replaced a third-level apprentice and became the warehouse manager had spread among the senior apprentices.

On the twelfth floor of the East Tower, there is a free activity room specifically for third-level apprentices to communicate.

There are usually not many people here, but the third-level apprentices who come back from missions usually come here for a walk.

They will exchange their gains and experiences from outside, or ask if there is any new news in the tower recently?

Today, the door of the activity room was pushed open again, and three people walked in from the outside.

Two men and one woman.

The first man had a flamboyant expression, the second had a sinister expression, and the third woman wore a large hood to cover the upper half of her face, revealing only a fair-skinned, graceful chin.

There were only two people talking in the activity room, but they suddenly stopped talking when they saw the three people coming in.

They looked at each other and one of the women stood up and walked towards the person who entered.

"Billy, I heard that your brother Bill died during this mission."

The man with a sinister expression raised his head and replied calmly: "Oh."
