Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 447 Undersea

After landing, Thor didn't hesitate and immediately ran towards the sea.

At this time, Kodo had already gone to sea and had been there for some time.

"Brother Thor, something's blocking my sense of phosphorus powder. Has it discovered us?" Penny suddenly reminded Thor.

Thor continued moving, thinking for a moment before saying, "No, it must be this sea that's blocking the connection."

He thought of the glowing fragments of vengeful spirits on the seabed.

At the time, although he was surprised by the large number of soul fragments at the bottom of the sea, he only thought it was because too many people had died there.

Looking back now, it's likely that sorcerers played a role in this. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the deaths of ordinary people to generate so many vengeful spirits.

Normally, after an ordinary person dies, their soul will quickly dissipate due to their fragile mental strength.

But wizards can seize the brief moment before an ordinary person's soul dissipates and forcibly turn them into a vengeful spirit.

The magic circle for extracting vengeful spirits that Thor discovered can also do this.

When Thor arrived at the seaside, he didn't enter the water like Gudo did, but instead flew directly on the surface of the sea.

Gudo went underwater from the very beginning, using the fragments of vengeful spirits in the sea to cover his tracks, and he was very careful along the way.

Since Thor doesn't enter the water, he can also use the power of the soul fragments in the sea to conceal his presence as he pursues them, making his pursuit perfectly legitimate.

Even Thor's shadow on the sea became a blurry blob; if someone looked from below, they would only think it was a large fish or a ship.

This is the Web of Shadows, also a level 0 minor spell.

The higher Thor's level, the easier it is for him to master low-level sorcery. He has basically mastered all the level 0 and 1 sorcery that are available for exchange in the registration room.

However, he didn't know many second-tier and third-tier spells. As for third-tier spells, he only knew Shadow Binding and Fire Arrow, a frontal attack spell that he only began to study on the road after leaving the wizard tower.

However, most certified wizards only master two or three Tier 3 spells. The higher the tier of the spell, the harder it is to obtain.

There are only three types of items that can be exchanged in the Wizard Tower's registration room, so Thor naturally made copies of them all and took them with him.

If he wants to learn new witchcraft in the future, he will either have to exchange for it with other forces or look for complete witchcraft notes that have been lost elsewhere.

Both methods are difficult.

But Thor has one advantage—he can learn from the consciousness within the pages of the book.

Therefore, if he wants to learn that kind of witchcraft, he can try to obtain the soul of a wizard who specializes in that element.

Ordinary wizards cannot obtain such a conscious soul.

Of course, the amount of soul energy required for a consciousness to completely write out the runic structure of a high-level sorcery is enormous. Without Thor's replenishment, the consciousness might not even be able to sustain itself and dissipate before it can fully reproduce the runes.

Thor channeled his magic, and his speed across the sea increased rapidly, completely disregarding the location of Gudo below.

"Rokai, just tell me where the source of the underwater soul tide is." This time, Thor wasn't going to follow Gudo around.

The other party came here secretly; they certainly wouldn't be after those few fragments of souls floating in the sea.

He will definitely go to the place where souls are most concentrated.

The origin of the soul tide!

Although Luo Kai was unwilling, he made his point very clearly.

The energy contained in Luo Kai's pages is dwindling and is about to disappear.

No matter how powerful he is, he is only a second-level apprentice. The consequence of suppressing his strength is that his mental strength is insufficient, and even if he turns into pages, he cannot last for long.

Based on Roca's description, Thor used his flying ability to quickly pinpoint the location.

He discovered that this place was very close to the area where he and Byron had found the grey matter.

"Splash!" Thor didn't hesitate and immediately dived into the water.

Here, further from the coast, the dark clouds overhead began to thin out.

If it weren't for Luo Kai pointing it out, Thor would have found it hard to imagine that this place, where the environment was almost back to normal, was the origin of the soul tide.

But as he gradually descended deeper into the sea, he discovered that only the surface was clear water, while the water near the seabed was even denser than the dark clouds overhead.

But aside from the environment becoming dark, Thor did not find a single fragment of the soul.

However, although Luo Kai likes to lie, his diary makes him tell the truth.

Thor did not hesitate and continued to sink.

He carefully observed his surroundings, but did not find any trace of Gudo.

The opponent is advancing underwater and doesn't specialize in water elemental magic, so their speed is definitely slower than Thor's flying speed.

Thor continued to descend until his hands finally touched the seabed.

"It's very clean here too. Although there are some fragments of vengeful spirits, there are obviously not as many as at the shipwreck, and they're not glowing."

Thor began to feel around on the ground, carefully turning over the seaweed and stones.

"Brother Thor, I can sense my phosphorus powder again. Gudo might be appearing soon!" Penny suddenly reminded him.

Thor didn't speak. His right hand trembled, and he suddenly pulled it back as if he had been electrocuted.

"This is it!" He confirmed the location of a cave.

The entrance to the cave was very narrow, hidden in a crevice between rocks, and covered by seaweed and dust. It would be difficult to find unless one searched carefully like Thor.

Thor smiled slightly and slowly turned his head to look in the direction Gudo had come from.

……

About five minutes later, Gu Duo arrived at the seabed.

With a fish-like air bladder in his mouth, he looked around blankly, then began to grope and turn over on the seabed, just like Thor.

He was clearly not very familiar with the layout of the place, and even had to surface to catch his breath halfway through.

That swim bladder-like air sac can actively absorb and compress outside air, which is why Gudu can stay underwater for such a long time.

After catching his breath, Gudo continued to explore the seabed. Finally, he found a cave on the seabed.

The cave was narrow, seemingly only wide enough for a child to pass through, but Gudo began to squeeze in after finding it. His muscles gradually compressed, transforming him back into a gaunt man.

And so, though it was a bit difficult, he managed to squeeze in headfirst.

After advancing three or four meters by rubbing against the rocks, the view below suddenly opened up.

It was transformed from a narrow cave into a cave where you could stretch out your arms at will.

And here, countless fragments of souls are crammed together.

Although the fragments of souls here do not emit light, the malice they exude is even more obvious.

When Gudo entered the wide cave from the narrow cave, it was as if he had passed through a barrier, and his brain was immediately hit by the howling and wailing sound.

"There are so many fragments of vengeful spirits here!" After a few seconds, Gu Duo regained consciousness.

He wasn't a wizard specializing in light or dark attributes, and even as a formal wizard, he still felt very uncomfortable facing the onslaught of so many fragments of vengeful spirits.

"We need to hurry. A new wave of soul surges is probably about to erupt here."

Gudo continued to sink.

The numerous fragments of souls here have begun to affect the physical body, obscuring his vision.

Everywhere was a gray blur, yet it also emitted a distorted, shrill scream.

Often, mutilated and distorted facial features would appear before Gudo, only to be swept away by the underwater currents.

Gudo didn't dare to look closely at the vengeful spirits; he was focused on sinking downwards, even squinting his eyes slightly to avoid further harm.

The Battle of Bluewater Bay a century ago also buried many formal wizards.

Finally, Gudo reached the bottom of the cave.

Several caves actually extend from the bottom of the main cavern, leading deeper into the darker seabed. But Gudo did not go any further down.

He barely managed to pinpoint a location using his mental strength, and with both hands, he parted the slippery seaweed and felt a rough, uneven surface.

A smile finally appeared on his face.

"Found it!"

Chapter Two was still at night.
