Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 428 Urgent Need to Urine

Meanwhile, in front of the bronze gate on the twentieth floor, Luo Kai, the president of the mutual aid society, who was still only a second-level apprentice, stood expressionless.

Suddenly, an apprentice's voice came from the end of the corridor.

"I saw a fireball!"

Upon hearing the long-awaited signal, Luo Kai's lips curled up in an exaggerated smile.

"Hehehe," he laughed strangely, looking at the bronze gate in front of him, "My mentor has given me a signal, so now, I'll satisfy your appetite."

"Hehehe."

"Hehehe."

"Hehehe."

Immediately, the same eerie laughter rang out behind Luo Kai.

Behind him stood a group of low-level apprentices with blank expressions and the same angled smiles on their faces.

After laughing, they moved their feet, even bending their joints at the same angle, like puppets on strings, step by step towards the bronze gate.

As the junior apprentices approached, a powerful sense of oppression began to emanate from the bronze gate.

Several junior apprentices closest to the gate fell to the ground with a thud.

But they quickly got up again, tears of fear streaming from their eyes, yet they had no choice but to keep moving forward.

Even Luo Kai, who was standing behind them, felt the oppressive force, but he was not afraid; instead, he was extremely excited.

"Hehehe, let me see what's in that hidden compartment!"

Dozens of apprentices stood piled up in front of the gate, stretched out their arms, and pushed the bronze gate open a crack in unison.

Pushing open this small crack, the colorful world behind the door is revealed to everyone.

Before they could recover from their astonishment, they saw pale, slender arms reaching out from behind the bronze gate. These arms greedily stroked the lowly apprentices, who were both weeping and smiling, pulling them inside the bronze gate like tender lovers.

Several junior apprentices finally managed to break free of control, shouting unconsciously as they tried to squeeze through the crowd.

But Luo Kai, who was standing at the very back, raised his hands, and several transparent thin lines could be faintly seen at his fingertips.

After the thin thread appeared, the few junior apprentices who had broken free from their restraints out of fear were forced to turn back and approach the gate.

Their eyes were crying, but the corners of their mouths were turned up to the limit.

As the slender arms pulled all the apprentices near the bronze gate inside, the colorful world inside became even more dazzling and the aura it exuded became even more terrifying. Strange black spots even appeared, and Luo Kai gradually felt the pressure.

He shook his head with a smile, "That's too dangerous. Forget it, I'm not playing with you guys anymore."

Luo Kai took two steps to exit the 20th floor, leaving behind only those desperate low-level apprentices who watched helplessly as they were pulled into a completely unimaginable world.

After leaving the 20th floor, Luo Kai clapped his hands and walked on tiptoe with great joy.

"You must be starving after all these years! Eat up, eat up, this is all for you. Eat your fill so you can have a proper celebration!"

The same scene was taking place in front of the bronze gate on the first floor of the East Tower, except that this time the leader was another female Level 1 apprentice.

This female apprentice had never given Luo Kai a second glance before, but in private she completely obeyed his orders without the slightest dissatisfaction.

On the other side of the bronze gate, Haywood, sitting in the first warehouse, was looking somewhat dejectedly at a group of snails with duck-like feet running around on the ground.

Suddenly he sensed something was amiss.

"Who would dare to break into the warehouse while the instructor is conducting an experiment?"

Heywood's disappointment immediately turned into anger, but he kept his emotions in check, maintaining a calm facade even in his rage.

He strode out of the first warehouse, walked through the long corridor, and came to the bronze gate.

Seeing that even the bronze gate had been pushed open, Heywood's anger intensified, and he cursed inwardly, "You're asking for death!"

But as he approached the door, he discovered that the colorful, distorted world inside was almost overflowing the door frame.

Having spent over a decade in the first warehouse, Haywood had developed a certain relationship with the mezzanine and knew how to close the doors ahead of time.

But just as he was about to step forward and restore the door to its original state, he heard Heidi scream from behind him.

"Heidi?" Reminded by his sister, Haywood immediately stopped and looked at the bronze door again.

This time, he saw many more dark figures vaguely visible inside the gate.

Heywood trembled all over.

"Who? Who sent so many people into the mezzanine? Aren't they afraid of a riot of vengeful spirits inside?"

For some reason, the thought of the mezzanine riots filled Heywood with a vague sense of fear.

For a moment, he stood rooted to the spot, not daring to approach.

Meanwhile, Keli ran breathlessly straight to Professor Gu Duo's laboratory.

Her hair was now much shorter than before, reduced from shoulder length to just ear length.

She used all her golden hair, which contained metallic energy, to fend off Jero's pursuit from behind.

Although Klee is almost at level three, she is still not enough to compete with the top level three apprentice, Jero.

For some reason, Jero didn't seem to be pursuing Claire very seriously.

He walked leisurely with his hands in his pockets, and when Ke Li tried to block his view with her metallic hair, he simply tilted his head to avoid it.

And so the two of them arrived at Professor Gu Duo's laboratory, one after the other.

Upon entering the laboratory, Claire immediately glanced at the long table in the room, where she had prepared the antidote for the soul poison.

Although it wasn't the antidote for the toxins she had recently enhanced, if Thor could have it, it would definitely greatly alleviate his symptoms.

"Star Grass, Soul-Eating Ants, Elimination Solvent..." Keli rushed to the lab bench, quickly rummaging through the contents while desperately racking her brains for a solution to the enhanced Soul Toxin.

But after flipping through the pages for a few seconds, she still couldn't find the antidote she had secretly concocted!

"He's not there." A soft sigh echoed from the corner of the room. "You're in such a panic, not seeing me for so long. It seems Thor has been poisoned."

Keli immediately straightened up and looked solemnly in the direction from which the sound came.

At the far end of the room sat a person, whom she had rushed in so urgently that she hadn't noticed at all.

It's Billy!

Claire had never seen Billy participate in any research related to the resurrection experiments; he was solely focused on his experiments with soul toxins.

Even the Soul Toxin that Claire improved was originally created by Billy.

But now, judging from what Billy is saying, he seems to know a lot about Gudo's mentor's conspiracy.

Was Billy involved in the mentors' rebellion?

Keli bit her lip lightly. If that was the case, it would be very difficult for her to obtain the antidote for the soul poison.

Just then, Jero also appeared unsteadily outside the laboratory door.

"Oh, back in the lab? Looks like you like it here. How about you die here?" Jero said with a smile, a faint arc of electricity flickering in his palm.

Claire leaned against the lab table, watching both Jero and Billy, a golden hue gradually appearing on her face.

"Jero!" Billy suddenly spoke, interrupting the atmosphere that was about to start a fight.

Jero was clearly aware of Billy's strength. Although Billy might not be that strong in a fight, his various poisons were virtually impossible to defend against.

Jero didn't want to confront Billy unless absolutely necessary.

"What? You want to do it yourself?" Jero's eyes darted between Claire and Billy, a hint of interest creeping in. "Then you can have her, just make sure she doesn't go back to the little garden."

After saying that, the electric arc in Jero's palm dissipated, and he clasped his hands behind his head, humming a strange tune, and left.

Before Jero's figure had completely disappeared, Claire immediately started looking around.

Even if she were to fight Billy, she would first need to find out where the antidote was.

Billy didn't make a move, letting Claire search for him.

Finally, Claire's gaze settled on the corner of the room.

There were two spherical glass containers, one large and one small. The smaller one still contained beta toxin, but the larger one contained something else.

Claire is very familiar with its appearance.

That's the antidote to the poison in your soul!

And it was the bottle she personally prepared!

Keli immediately rushed forward, ready to take out her antidote.

"Claire!" Billy, sitting on the other side, called out to her, "Don't give Thor the antidote. You stay here quietly, and I promise that no matter who succeeds in the end, I can get you out of the Wizard Tower safely."

Claire's outstretched hand froze in mid-air. She slowly turned her head and looked at Billy with a look that seemed to say, "Look at me like I'm an idiot."

"What did you say?"

Billy kept his head down and didn't make eye contact with Claire, so he didn't notice the "complex" emotions in her eyes.

"Sol has been targeted by Anze and Gudo from the start. Don't risk your life for him. You're a genius, and you still have a lot of room to grow..."

Billy is not usually very talkative, and this was the first time he had talked so much with Claire.

But Keli didn't want to listen anymore after hearing half of it, so she simply turned her head and pressed her finger directly on the spherical glass to draw runes.

As her fingertip traced the last symbol, the spherical glass opened.

Keli laughed excitedly. Although the small sealing array was different from the original, it was no challenge for her at all.

She reached in and grabbed the antidote.

"Sigh—" Billy sighed.

Claire immediately tensed up. Maybe Billy wanted to wait until she got the antidote before he made a move on her?

Klee is ready for battle!

Billy isn't as skilled in combat as Jero was earlier, but he's confident he can escape with the antidote if he faces Claire head-on.

Just as she was about to pull her hand out of the glass, she suddenly felt something sharp pressing against her wrist.

Seeing that Claire had stopped moving, Billy said slowly, "The syringe inside is already filled with your alpha radiation toxin. If you try to take the antidote out, the toxin will be injected into your body immediately. As you know, there is still no antidote for radiation toxin."

Claire sneered, turning to look at Billy. "So this is where you were waiting for me."

Billy looked up at the furious Claire, his mind a jumble of emotions, and said, "So you weren't this reckless after all. Looks like you were really in a hurry. I didn't set this trap; it was Gudo who set it up for you. He knows you're close to Thor, and you probably came here to get the antidote to save him."

Billy explained something to Gudo.

"But he doesn't really want to kill you. If you stay here for just one day, the syringe will retract, and then you can move around freely with the antidote. This is also to save you."

Billy didn't warn Claire about the trap in the glassware because he didn't want Claire to return to the battlefield.

Claire's breath hitched as she looked down at her arm that was stuck into the glass.

The syringe pressed against her wrist was transparent, possibly the effect of some kind of witchcraft, but Claire could clearly feel a sharp object pressing against her skin.

She looked at her wrist, but in her mind, she saw the image of Thor's skin slowly dissolving.

"And what about you? If I were to leave, would you lay a hand on me?" Claire's voice softened, but her back remained stiffly straight.

Billy smiled. "No."

He patted the chair he was sitting on. "In fact, to prevent me from causing trouble, they also put me under restraint. I can't leave the area within a meter of this chair before dark."

"I see." Keli nodded, her eyes vacant, as if she had resigned herself to her fate.

Seeing this, Billy hesitated and said, "If you're bored... we can talk about your radiation poison. I've always been interested, maybe we can explore... Claire, what are you doing?!"

Billy was shocked!

He was speaking enthusiastically when he noticed that Claire had suddenly taken her hand out of the glass container, her palm still tightly clutching the bottle of antidote.

Although her wrist was covered with a metal shield, there was still a black needle mark on it.

Billy didn't know what to say. His lips were trembling. He could only watch helplessly as Claire took out the antidote, grabbed a bunch of materials from the lab table, and ran out of the lab.

"Are you out of your mind?!" he finally shouted in astonishment as Ke Li was about to step out of the room.

Keli paused, turned her head slightly, and said calmly, "Sorry, I can't wait, I need to pee."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ke Li's figure disappeared down the corridor.

It's clear she was really in a hurry.

Urgent...

Outside the Wizard's Tower, in the small garden, when Thor saw Anze cast a fireball into the sky, he knew that Anze probably had a backup plan.

He immediately thought of Luo Kai, who had disappeared somewhere.

"We can't wait any longer; perhaps we can try to force an antidote."

Thor is not without options when it comes to this terrifying soul toxin.

This soul toxin only targets Thor's skin, but that doesn't mean Thor's soul energy can't attack proactively!

He decided to use soul fishing to work on his own skin!

Thor's skin is made of soul-devouring esters, which contain a rare ingredient: Thor's own soul. This is why he is targeted by soul toxins.

He only gave the formula for the phlegm-consuming ester to Byron and Haywood; no one else had it.

But there is another person—Anze, who once broke Thor's finger to observe it up close. As a mentor who is proficient in materials science, he may have also discovered some of the secrets of the Soul Eater.

With a plan in mind, Thor attempted to form a gray, transparent tentacle in his palm.

The tentacle was poisoned as soon as it took shape and quickly softened, but Thor's eyes lit up.

"There's hope!"

He caused tiny octopus tentacles to rapidly grow on all the skin that was covered by his clothes.

These octopus tentacles don't grow very big or long, but they grow very quickly and take shape very easily.

Then, before the small tentacles softened from the poison, they quickly "bent down" and pressed themselves tightly against Thor's skin, beginning to absorb the spiritual power within and the soul toxins wrapped around it!

"It's feasible!" Thor's eyes lit up; he could already feel his skin melting at a slower rate.

If we just hold on a little longer...

"Ugh!" Suddenly, a muffled groan came from Gorsa's side.

Thor immediately looked over and found that the rage that had been slightly suppressed on the other person had worsened again!

Black blood flowed out freely, quickly forming a small black puddle on the ground.

Yura, who was clinging to him tightly, smiled. "Kill me..."

She tried even harder to squeeze herself into Gorsa's wound, wanting to completely corrupt the man.

Anze helped Rum to his feet again.

"I know the Wizard Tower is your Radiant family's trump card. With it around, you're generally unkillable. So until just now, you probably didn't think you'd die today, right?"

Anze staggered forward two steps, and new, dense black threadworms fell off his body, struggling to crawl toward Gorsa.

"But have you ever considered that if one day your wizard tower rebels first, becomes corrupted, and goes out of control, can you still rely on it to remove the corruption, or... detonate it and perish with us?"

The first chapter is 4500 words. The second chapter will be after 6 PM. I don't know how many thousands of words it will be, but I'll finish typing it.
