Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 343 People Scary

Flight is a second-order sorcery that Thor learned during a break from studying the containers.

It is a highly frequently used auxiliary magic that almost every apprentice who enters the third level will learn.

Almost all the Level 3 apprentices Thor knew could do it, the only one he hadn't mastered yet was Byron, whose levitation method was quite peculiar.

Thor kept his body steadily half a meter above the sea surface, and then moved forward quickly.

However, his flying skills are not yet proficient, so he usually only flies in a straight line.

Far from the coast, he ventured into a more secluded region.

A thin layer of fog rose over the sea.

The boundary between the night sky and the sea was completely blurred, and Thor seemed to be heading towards a deep, bottomless black hole.

The sound of the waves crashing gradually diminished as he moved further away from the shore.

The whole world fell silent.

From east to west, north to south, up to down, left to right, it seemed as if he was the only person left in the world.

If it weren't for the Nightmare Butterflies that occasionally slipped through his sight, Thor might have developed the eerie feeling that he was the only person left in the world.

But not at all now.

Because that silver butterfly is also a little chatterbox!

"Brother Thor, Brother Thor, there are so few fish here!"

When no one was around, Penny's traits became even more apparent.

Fortunately, her voice is quite pleasant; the little girl's voice is soft, sweet, and cute, so it doesn't become annoying to listen to.

"Brother Thor, if a soul tide occurs later, are you going to inject the energy tubes of the soul fragments into Herman's consciousness? He'll go crazy."

"It wasn't a direct injection." Thor would naturally filter it through the diary, but there was no need to tell Penny about the specific process.

Thor had now reached a point far from the shore. The figures on the bank were no longer clearly visible.

"This should be where the soul tide first appears."

Fish drown in the sea, and dead people are brought ashore.

Thor lowered his head, and the black tentacles reappeared, dangling down his clothes and gently stirring the seawater.

A few minutes later, Thor retracted his tentacles and shook the water droplets off his hands.

"The concentration of soul fragments has not increased; it is still decreasing. Under the current environmental conditions, it is impossible to form a large-scale vengeful spirit field."

Thor glanced up at the sky; the dark clouds seemed to press down on him, and the wind on the sea made it impossible for him to put on his hood.

"However, all the signs do resemble the environmental conditions rumored to cause a soul tide... but why is the concentration of soul fragments decreasing?"

Just as Thor was wondering what was going on, he suddenly felt something rising from the sea.

A massive surge of magical energy swept over.

Thor instantly retreated fifty meters and activated his Spirit Armor spell.

He stared intently at the seabed, trying to see what was sending out the danger signal.

"Could they be the vanguard of the soul tide?"

Then, Thor vaguely saw a huge spherical object rising to the surface. It wasn't moving fast, and was slowly approaching the water's surface.

Since the opponent did not launch an attack, Thor did not make any rash moves.

It was very dark, and Thor could vaguely see that the underwater sphere was about the height of a person and seemed to have four tentacles, which were thin and short compared to the center of the sphere.

A dark light formed in Thor's palm, poised to strike.

Immediately afterwards, the strange sphere finally surfaced, revealing its true form as it expanded and stretched to its limit.

Thor: "..."

The sphere slowly rotated, aiming its twisted, bluish-purple facial features at Thor.

"Um?"

As the dim light faded, Thor pinched the bridge of his nose and said with great melancholy, "Senior, could you please stop looking like such a monster?"

The giant sphere began to shrink, slowly transforming from a sphere into a person.

The bluish-purple discoloration on the skin faded, revealing its pale true appearance.

Byron sat on the undulating sea, raised a hand to greet Thor, and said, "Hmm!"

Byron can't speak again. Needless to say, he must have absorbed evil spirits again, and he has to remain silent for a long time to prevent himself from exploding due to internal pressure.

At the same time, he also had to be careful not to get injured. However, Byron's skin had a strong self-healing ability, so he didn't need to worry about minor injuries.

Five minutes later, Thor used the small algae to support Byron, and the two climbed onto a huge reef far from the shore.

There is a recessed hole in the reef, which is obviously man-made and was dug in the last few days.

"Have you been here for a long time, senior?"

Byron nodded, his body instantly evaporating, and then he held up a hand to make a "5".

"Yes, it's not surprising that you would come here if you were looking for an evil spirit. Did you go into the water because you found something underwater?"

Byron stretched out his hand and gestured wildly.

After observing for a while, Thor managed to roughly understand what the other person meant, relying on their years of tacit understanding.

"You mean, this place has been like this for five days straight, but there hasn't been a real soul tide. You think there's something wrong underwater, which is why you tried to dive down?"

Penny: "Um... Thor, how did you figure that out?"

Thor raised his hand and casually waved it near his ear, as if shooing away a mosquito.

"Did you discover anything, senior?"

Byron nodded; he had indeed made some discoveries in the past few days.

He reached out and drew in the air.

"A ship?" Thor deciphered, suddenly recalling Parker's earlier invitation to team up. "A ghost ship?"

But Byron on the other side shook his head.

Thor turned and looked at the deep, inky sea, his gaze gradually shifting beneath the surface.

"...A shipwreck?"

"Um."

Byron first pointed at Thor, then moved his hand below the water's surface. Thor understood that his senior wanted him to go down and see for himself.

"Okay, I'll go take a look. You rest here, senior, and keep watch for me while you're at it."

Saul removed the cloak that might hinder his movements underwater, revealing a linen shirt and black trousers underneath.

"By the way, senior, there are two wandering wizard apprentices on the shore, one level three and the other level two. Be careful."

Saul's warning to Byron to be careful was an expression of his confidence in the two wandering apprentices' abilities.

Byron nodded, and then the man's body suddenly shrank, sitting in the newly dug pit, covering himself with Thor's black cloak, and completely turning into part of the reef.

Immediately afterward, Byron withdrew the magical fluctuations emanating from his body, and Thor instantly lost all mental contact with him.

"Byron's strength seems to have really improved a lot. It seems that his risky move of absorbing the evil spirit into his body was quite effective."

Thor didn't linger any longer, turned around, and leaped into the sea.

As soon as he entered the water, Thor activated his Spirit Armor spell, and at the same time, several black tentacles flew out from the back of his neck.

Although the little algae is an earth-attribute magical creature, its original form is a swamp, so it is equally adept at swimming in water.

Thor felt as if he were being pushed along, without him having to exert any effort at all.

His job is simply to adjust the direction from the front.

Every now and then, a silver shadow would flash by in my sight; that was the curious figure of the Nightmare Butterfly.

There was already little light on the surface of the sea, and the further one went into the water, the darker it became.

The pressure of the seawater began to affect the Spirit Armor spell, and the mana consumption was also increasing.

Thor estimated how long he could stay afloat, then slightly increased his speed and continued descending in the same direction where Byron had just surfaced.

When he could see no light at all, Thor prepared to expend a little more magic to cast a few more light spells.

But just then, a few faint white lights appeared before his eyes. More and more of those white lights appeared, like fireflies hiding in the bushes at night, suddenly taking flight and then quickly scattering after being disturbed by the outside world.

Thus, the abyss before Thor transformed into the Milky Way.

"What a nice view!"

He was first impressed, then surprised.

"What are these? These are all... fragments of a soul?"

The second and third updates will be before 10 PM.
