Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 483 Working to Death

Actually, Thor's initial idea for Archer was not to cause too much trouble, but now that he has tasted the sweetness of collecting evil spirits and assembling soul weapons, his current collection efficiency is not enough.

Thor actually wanted to go to the No Man's Lands right now, because he knew that the evil spirits there were much stronger than those in Archist City, both in terms of quantity and quality.

The thought of experimenting on such a powerful evil spirit made Thor so excited he couldn't calm down.

As for the dangers involved...

Saul felt that with the diary in his possession, he couldn't find a safe place to hide even if he wanted to.

It would be better to take the initiative.

Thirty minutes later, Thor appeared in front of Char's villa.

Before he could even knock, Xia pulled him inside like a thief.

Inside the room, Julie was already waiting in the living room, dressed in a cool, breezy outfit.

However, Char did not provide tea, nor even a seat.

Julie waited for an unknown amount of time, then stood there angrily with her arms crossed.

Seeing Thor, Julie turned around. "It's a good thing you didn't arrive at the last minute, otherwise I don't know how much longer I would have had to stand here. Char wouldn't say anything before you came."

Xia peered through the window near the door, looked around, then drew the curtains, keeping his distance from the two men, and said, "This matter is crucial. Every time we repeat it, it could alert that person, so of course I have to wait until everyone is here before I speak."

"Now you can tell me, right?" Julie said irritably.

"No, I actually secretly notified Wizard Jonah, but I don't know if he will come."

"Didn't you say you only notified me and Julie the Wizard?" Thor chuckled.

"I'm sorry, but that was just to be on the safe side. I naturally can't tell you all the member information before you agree to come over." Xia said apologetically, but there was no remorse on his face.

So Saul and Julie had to wait another half hour.

However, this time Julie wasn't as bored as before.

She wasn't interested in the suspicious Char, but she was much more enthusiastic about Thor, who was outwardly cold but very polite.

However, this Thor sometimes acted like a clueless kid, ignoring her enthusiastic invitations several times.

So for the next half hour, Julie started chatting with Saul again to get to know him better.

Thor didn't deliberately avoid it like last time. He didn't have any particular goal when he was in Archaeologists then, but now he was interested in the frequently appearing charred corpses and evil spirits. While dealing with Julie's subtle seduction, he tried to extract more information about the evil spirits from her.

Half an hour later, Char finally left the gate.

"Let's go." Jonah the Wizard didn't show up at the last second, and Xia's expression wasn't good.

"Oh, this is the first time you've let us into a room other than the living room," Julie said teasingly, glancing at Xia.

"No." Xia Ya maintained a distance of three meters from the two of them and said somewhat stiffly.

Led by him, Saul and Julie arrived at the basement.

After passing through several tightly closed doors, they finally saw Char's destination.

"What is this?" Julie's mouth dropped open.

"A teleportation array?" Thor was also very surprised. He didn't expect to see a teleportation array at the hands of a first-tier wizard.

All magic related to space is not simple magic.

The space compression technology in the space bag Thor purchased is a closely guarded secret of Bydon Academy.

Although wizards in other places also possessed such skills, no one spread them widely.

Aside from some outdated elements that are kept secret and cherished, the most important thing is that knowledge of witchcraft can bring unimaginable dangers to those who cannot master it.

Like a child holding a sharp knife, he might cut himself first.

Therefore, after learning that Bydon possessed magical artifacts such as compression packs, Thor was determined to purchase one, even at a high price.

Because it's uncertain when we'll encounter another space-type item that can be exchanged.

The spatial traversal technology in teleportation arrays is even more difficult than spatial compression technology. Therefore, many second-tier wizards may not even possess such arrays.

For example, Thor's mentor, Gorza, did not have one.

However, Gorsa is more likely to not need it.

He is a homebody wizard who can teleport but dislikes going out.

Upon seeing the teleportation array, Thor and Julie's first thought was to memorize the runes on it. However, they discovered halfway through that there was another layer of concealing runes on top of the array, meaning that what they were seeing was not the real array.

"Well, there's no such thing as a free lunch." Thor withdrew his gaze, already thinking about how to get his hands on the spatial teleportation array.

"Xia, when did you set up a teleportation array in your own home? You didn't use all the magic crystals you earn to build this array, did you?" Julie was more familiar with Xia, so she spoke more frankly.

"Hmph!" Xia Ya curled his lip. "This world is so dangerous, with enemies everywhere, so naturally I need to prepare an escape route. Don't even think about this teleportation array; once I send you back, I'll naturally move you to another place."

Julie pursed her lips, not surprised that Xia would say that.

Thor didn't say anything, glanced at the magic circle again, and then followed the two inside.

Once the three of them had stopped, Xia Ya chanted a spell in a low voice, and the magic crystals around the magic circle began to shine, their light instantly obscuring the surrounding scenery.

Thor felt a sudden dizziness, as if his head and feet had switched places and then returned to their original positions.

"The teleportation distance of this spatial teleportation array is probably much farther than the mentor's teleportation distance."

At the very least, Gorza's teleportation wouldn't cause Thor's sense of space to become confused.

Thor couldn't see clearly at this moment, and he felt a little nervous. He couldn't help but want to use a new meditation method to observe his surroundings, but Penny stopped him.

"Brother Thor, you can't look around carelessly when you're teleporting, or you might make eye contact with some unknown entity in the spatial rift."

Thor immediately stopped observing. "I don't know much about spatial magic. You mean that when I'm teleporting, there will be spatial rifts around me?"

Spatial rifts sound terrifying.

"Yes, a spatial teleportation array is essentially about finding a safe spatial rift so that matter and spirit can be teleported together. But if something goes wrong along the way, the matter and spirit may not reach their destination."

After a few seconds, or maybe a few minutes, the white light dissipated.

Saul and Julie looked around at the same time and found themselves in a cave.

The cave was damp and the air was salty and fishy.

It seems they've arrived at the seaside.

Thor told Penny to go out and see where they were, while he spoke to Char.

"You deliberately used a spatial teleportation array to take us away from the vicinity of the academy. Is it because what you discovered is related to people from the academy?"

As Char deactivated the magic circle, he answered Thor, "Yes. You know, I've always been terrified of death, so I keep an eye out for any potential plots against me."

Julie rolled her eyes in exasperation. If Xia hadn't used up a lot of magic crystals to activate the spatial teleportation array, she really wouldn't have wanted to listen to his wild speculations.

But Thor was very supportive. "So? What conspiracy did you uncover?"

Even though there were only the three of them there, Xia Ya still lowered his voice.

"I discovered a group of similar evil spirits. They appear normal on the outside, but their insides are charred corpses. Before they erupt, they can disguise themselves as normal people for more than a day."

In the darkness, Char's gaze burned brightly.

"Through my investigation, I discovered that these evil spirits all shared a common trait in their lives..."

"Stop keeping me in suspense!" Julie urged, knowing that Char was finally about to get to the point.

Xia ignored him and waited a few seconds until the atmosphere around them became even heavier before continuing, "Someone is secretly contacting those who want to leave the city, saying they will help them with the departure procedures, but those who are taken away by those people will eventually become evil spirits and return to their jobs."

"They will work until their bodies can no longer support them, and then infect the next person before the humanoid skin completely tears away."

Upon hearing this, Julie seemed to realize something and raised her hand to cover her lips.

Thor muttered to himself, "This really is... working to death!"
