Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 444 Ambush

Thor stared intently at the person opposite him, making no attempt to hide the murderous intent in his eyes.

Two people were walking slowly toward the bow of the ship, near the cabin entrance.

One person is supporting the other.

The person Thor was staring at was the one who had been helped up.

He wore a long cloak, which clung to his body in the wind, revealing his exceptionally slender figure.

The other person seemed to be unwell, constantly coughing while covering their mouth, and occasionally looking like they were about to vomit.

Another person supported his arm and said something with concern.

Thor kept his eyes on them, not worried that they would notice his gaze.

After absorbing new Hidden Crystal, Nightmare Butterfly Penny's abilities have grown, and she can now influence the perception and cognition of others to a certain extent.

Even if Thor stares at the other person for a whole day, as long as the latter's strength does not exceed Thor's mental power, he will not be able to detect them.

"Brother Thor, I've confirmed it, that person is Gudo! Ha, he didn't expect that, did he? No matter how much you disguise yourself, a spiritual being won't lie!"

Penny flapped her wings and fluttered in front of Thor.

Beneath the Wizard's Tower, Penny also sparred with Gudo, helping Thor hold him off for a while, but was eventually expelled from his spirit body.

At this moment, it naturally disliked Gudo very much.

As for Thor, needless to say, he was poisoned, hunted down, and had a grudge against Claire.

He was initially a little annoyed that the other party had escaped, but he never expected to run into them on the airship today.

Thor lifted his foot and walked steadily and firmly toward Gudo, whose body and appearance had changed drastically.

At the same time, translucent gray tentacles rose and fell on the deck beneath his feet, spreading out in all directions like smoke.

After the battle at the Wizard's Tower, Thor gradually discovered that his Soul Fishing ability could now split into multiple parts, much like the small algae.

Although the more it splits, the less powerful each tentacle becomes, the more powerful a single tentacle is than before.

These tentacles first dispersed to various corners of the deck, and then surrounded the center where Gudo was located from the outside.

The movements were very discreet and careful.

Not only that, Thor also spread his mental and magical power together on the tentacles of Soul Fishing, and through a second vibration, added a new third-tier sorcery, Shadow Binding, to it.

It allows Thor's attacks to blend into the surrounding shadows, making them more concealed, and it can also create a dizzying effect the moment the attack is launched, increasing the success rate of Soul Fishing.

Ahead, neither the disguised Gudo nor the man supporting him noticed the attacks coming from all directions.

Elsewhere on the airship, there were no other Tier 1 wizards, and even if there were other advanced apprentices, they would not be able to see the ambush taking place under the double disguise of Nightmare Butterflies and Shadow Binding.

The smoke was gradually approaching the two people who were about to enter the cabin.

In Thor's view, transparent tentacles slowly extended from the walls of the passageway leading into the cabin. The tips of the tentacles were all aimed at the two of them, ready to strike. They were just waiting for Gudo to step into the final ambush point, and then they would turn the clear sky and the clean deck into a cage shrouded in shadow and smoke.

However, just as Thor's ambush was complete and the final killing intent was about to be unleashed, a white shadow suddenly descended from the sky.

The white figure was incredibly fast; just as Thor's encirclement was about to close in, it pierced through the last gap and shot towards Gudo and the other person.

Someone's trying to intercept it?!

Thor narrowed his eyes, immediately unleashing his mental power. The already restless shadows and tentacles suddenly launched an attack on the center.

However, Thor's attack was not known for its speed. Despite his quick deployment of the trap, the white figure was a second faster... piercing the brain of the person next to Gudo!

As soon as Gudo, who had been tense all along, realized that someone was attacking, his abdomen and arms suddenly exploded.

The explosion sent out black smoke billowing outwards like tigers and wolves, indiscriminately attacking friend and foe alike; even the person who had been supporting him was attacked.

The unfortunate creature that was attacked let out a wail from both its mouth and soul, which actually dispelled part of Thor's attack.

"Soul Toxin!" Thor immediately recognized the black, beast-like mist emanating from Gudo as the enhanced version of the Soul Toxin that had nearly melted him before.

Although the forms of witchcraft may differ, the underlying threat remains.

Thor didn't launch a direct attack just now because he didn't want Gudo to become alert and then use the poison for self-defense.

Even Thor struggles with Gudo's poison.

He immediately retracted his tentacles, leaving only shadows around the two to restrain them and prevent them from escaping.

At that moment, the person next to Gudo collapsed to the ground, convulsing, with a thin layer of ice covering his entire body.

Thor looked up and finally saw the person above attacking Gudo's companions.

It was a creature with a full head of white hair, and wings made of ice crystals that were slowly flapping behind it.

Huge blue and white magic circles floated above his head and below his feet.

It was this magic circle that concealed all his killing intent and magical fluctuations before he launched his attack.

When the other party no longer needed to conceal himself, Thor could clearly sense from the fluctuations emanating from him that the other party was actually a second-tier wizard.

A completely unfamiliar second-tier wizard, unlike any other second-tier wizard described in the western region!

"Could it be a second-tier wizard from another region?"

Just as Thor was wary of his opponent and refrained from further action, Gudo suddenly transformed into several identical figures and fled in four directions.

One of them was running right towards Captain Thor and Captain Harry.

The second-tier wizard above did not let Gudo go; several more white ice spears condensed around his body.

"Is Gudo trying to shift the blame?" Thor could easily dodge, but Harry behind him probably wouldn't survive.

He looked at Gudo charging towards him, his eyes narrowed, and immediately noticed several unrealistic image distortions on the other man.

"This is fake."

Having confirmed the other party's authenticity, Thor didn't stop them. Black tentacles extended from behind his neck, directly grabbing Captain Harry's waist and pulling him and Thor aside.

The ice spear struck Gudo's phantom, immediately piercing through its body and then embedding itself in the deck.

The moment it hit the deck, it exploded with a "bang," turning into countless tiny ice needles that scattered in all directions!

A transparent spirit armor spell immediately blocked Thor's path.

"Splash!"

The Spirit Armor Technique didn't hold out for long before being shattered like glass by dozens of ice needles.

However, the momentum of the ice needles had decreased, and their speed was no longer as fast as when they had just erupted.

The black tentacles split again, forming a wall that blocked Thor's path.

"Tap tap tap... tap tap tap..."

The ice needle pierced the small algae's clone, losing its kinetic energy halfway in.

The small algae's mouth immediately began to vibrate with a "crackling" sound, as if someone had been doused with ice water.

The next second, cracks appeared on Xiaozao's clone, and it finally shattered into pieces on the ground.

Captain Harry, who hadn't even realized what was happening, immediately felt his legs go weak and couldn't stand up. If it weren't for the tentacle of the little algae holding his waist, he probably would have already slid to the ground.

But something even more terrible is happening.

None of the Gudos who had fled in all directions toward the airship were actually real figures.

Therefore, all the ice spears pierced through the phantom and exploded on the deck.

The once intact hull now has four large holes, and the entire airship has begun to rock.

"Lord Thor!" Captain Harry, who had been terrified, suddenly calmed down. "Could you get me to the engine room? If the airship crashes, no one but you will survive at this altitude!"

Thor nodded and had Xiao Zao throw the person down the passageway into the cabin.

He stared intently at the old man in the sky.

At this moment, the old man also turned his gaze to Saul.

His eyes were like murky sewage, emitting a cold, foul odor.

"A third first-tier wizard?" The white-haired old man sneered. "Three first-tier wizards on a small airship? I bet you're one of them. Then let's all die together."

The opponent's murderous intent instantly turned the sweltering summer heat into a freezing winter, and even Thor's skin broke out in goosebumps.

Those survivors who hadn't managed to escape were instantly turned into ice sculptures, unable to move.

At the same time, in Thor's mind, the dark red diary began to rustle.
