Diary of a Dead Wizard

Saul was polite, but not in a no-no manner.

Hayden struggled for a long time and finally agreed.

Because Sol added another sentence outside the door.

"Senior Hayden, do you know why thirty-year-old apprentices who cannot advance to level three are kicked out of the Wizard Tower?"

Hayden's hand on the door suddenly tightened, he looked at Saul's nameplate intently, and finally opened the door.

"Then come in, I'm not used to going anywhere else."

Saul readily agreed and entered the second morgue, which was almost closed to outsiders.

As soon as he entered, Sol was shocked by the layout inside.

This is too neat and clean!

Unlike Saul's messy experimental table and overcrowded cabinets, Hayden's morgue is as neat and clean as...an exhibition hall?

The innermost wall was lined with display cabinets, from floor to ceiling.

Each display cabinet is equipped with a glass cabinet door, allowing people to clearly see what is stored inside.

From top to bottom, these cabinets contain parts of human or other living creatures from hair, eyes, nose... all the way to the feet.

The color also deepens little by little from left to right.

But Saul could tell at a glance that most of the limbs were normal.

In other words, they are all useless materials.

Hayden's tool table is also extremely neat. Even the conveyor belts connecting the left and right sides are clean, with no trace of dirt visible.

"Senior Hayden is really... good at storing things."

Hayden clasped his hands together and pinched each other.

"I just like doing things."

Thor had never seen Hayden in a public class for first-level apprentices. He was probably spending all his energy in the corpse room.

"Thor, when you said you were leaving the tower at thirty, wasn't it because the tower owner felt that people with insufficient qualifications would waste the resources in the tower?"

"I don't know if there is a reason for this, but the most important reason is..." Saul drawled his voice, but stopped suddenly when Hayden couldn't help but look over anxiously.

Hayden waited for a long time, and when he saw that Sol didn't speak, he immediately understood what he meant.

He stopped asking about the matter and got down to business.

"Solzu said he wanted to take something out of his eyes. Can you describe its nature?"

Thor took out several reagents from his arms.

"I have already thought up the surgical plan, and I always carry the necessary materials with me. It's just that it's not very convenient to operate on my own eyes, so I came here to trouble Senior Hayden."

Hayden was stunned, it turned out that he was just a tool man, "Okay, what do you need me to do?"

Saul explained the surgical procedure to Hayden in detail.

Hayden's mouth grew bigger little by little, and exclamations such as "Is this okay?" and "Really or not" kept running through his mind.

After explaining the process, Thor left Hayden, whose brain was overloaded, and began to prepare the potion.

He had long thought about taking out the Nightmare Butterfly's cocoon, so he had made a lot of preparations.

This time, Hayden will be responsible for retrieving the cocoon, while Thor will be responsible for capturing and sealing it at the last moment.

Yes, although Saul was the one who performed the surgery, he also had a very important task.

Whether it was Thor's experience of having it inexplicably enter his eyes after getting the cocoon, or the ending of the story where the butterfly that flew away was caught by the wizard but still killed the wizard in the end, all made Thor understand this Butterfly is not a peaceful guy.

The good news is that the Nightmare Butterfly is still just a cocoon, the future villain has not yet grown up, and the diary does not indicate that it will harm Thor.

Thor can now choose to strangle it directly or retrain it.

Both options have risks. For now, it is better to take out the cocoon first to prevent yourself from continuing to be affected by nightmares.

Soon he prepared two test tubes of medicine.

One is a pure transparent liquid, a little viscous, but it flows smoothly and does not hang on the inner wall.

The other one was a purple liquid with tiny bubbles.

"Senior Hayden, are you ready? The reagent will take effect within five minutes after swallowing it, and the effect will last for five minutes."

"Okay." Hayden took a deep breath, "This is my first time to attack a living person. If it hurts you... do you want to take another dose of painkiller?"

Thor raised his head and put the purple potion into his mouth.

Frowning and swallowing the aftertaste in his mouth, Thor glanced at the hourglass clock.

"No need," he said, walking over and lying directly on the transfer platform where the body was originally placed. "The painkillers will affect my judgment."

Hayden also knew that Sol was a ruthless person, so he didn't try to persuade him anymore. He walked to the tool table, picked up a thin needle, and began to disinfect quickly according to Sol's request.

"Disinfection?" Hayden thought to himself, "Is this the difference between performing 'surgery' on a living person and a dead person?"

An operation involving doctors and patients begins.

Because the doctor is still a novice when it comes to living subjects—the honest and low-key Hayden has never done any experiments on living subjects—the patient must constantly guide the doctor on how to operate based on his own feelings.

The operation lasted a total of four minutes and thirty-five seconds.

Although there was some panic in the middle, the total duration of the operation did not exceed the effective time of the medicine.

In the last twenty-five seconds, Hayden finally used the smallest tweezers to pinch out the cocoon hidden in Sol's pupils.

He raised the tweezers to see what was in Sol's eyes. But as soon as his eyes fell on the little silver ball, he was attracted by this beautiful little ball.

But a silver ball the size of a grain of rice quickly grew in size after being exposed to the air.

The silver skin shines like stars, and the deep and quiet feeling makes Hayden feel like he is looking up at the stars in the wilderness.

He unknowingly immersed himself in it, and gradually raised the tweezers closer to his eyes, as if he wanted to insert them directly into his eyeballs.

Suddenly, a skeletal hand appeared in front of Hayden.

The white bones rubbed against Hayden's cheek, and he snatched the small silver ball away.

"No!" Hayden was about to get angry subconsciously.

But when he saw Sol's appearance, a handful of cold water was poured on his swollen brain.

Thor had already sat up from the teleportation platform, with the fixator holding the eyelid open under his left eye frame.

A trace of blood overflowed from Sol's eyelids and flowed down to his chin.

His originally black left eye had now turned into a dull dark gray.

This is the result of Hayden's simple treatment.

But Thor didn't care about his currently blind left eye at all. He just quickly threw the cocoon he grabbed into the transparent liquid he prepared, and then sealed the bottle mouth with a cork.

The clear liquid overflowed a little, and the rest filled the entire test tube.

The small silver ball floated up and down in the reagent, as if someone was teasing it with a string.

After confirming that the sealing was completed, Thor threw the test tube to Hayden.

Hayden quickly stretched out his hand to catch it, feeling frightened for a while.

"It was very dangerous to observe like that just now. Now you can watch."

But this time Hayden just glanced at it and quickly returned the test tube to Sol.

"No, no, no, although this thing has been sealed by you, it is still very dangerous to me, so I won't read more. My sanity almost fell just now."

This time Hayden's stance was lower.

He became increasingly certain that Sol had far surpassed him in many fields.

Seeing that Hayden gave up observing, Saul put the test tube away.

"This thing is a test of willpower." Sol thought of the little girl Penny, "but I guess that if you are a pure-hearted person, you will not be easily affected."

Hayden looked gloomy, unable to reach either of these points.

If he had been determined, he wouldn't have been just a first-level apprentice until now.

Sol picked up a roll of gauze from the tool table and wrapped it diagonally around his head to cover his left eye.

Hayden stood aside quietly and watched, unable to speak.

Thor knew what he wanted to ask and directly answered the question left for Hayden before entering.

"If a wizard stays in a certain realm for a long time, it will attract unknown terror. The longer he stays, the greater the possibility of being contaminated. The lower the strength, the faster it will attract terror. In order to prevent the apprentices from becoming If they become pollutants, the Wizard Tower will regularly expel apprentices who are too old."

"Compared to other forces that turn unqualified apprentices into experimental materials upon expiration, Wizard Tower can be considered gentle."
