Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 566 Hooked Fish

The most important piece of the puzzle was found in an unexpected place by someone who was originally a complete stranger.

Who would have thought that a group of quicksand termites, oppressed by another species, would eventually settle in a tree?

Thor carefully collected every quicksand termite he could see before finally removing the queen, who was extremely emaciated due to malnutrition.

After Thor's alternative queen ant reunited with his own queen ant, it immediately transferred its nutrients to her and then fell into a deep sleep.

Thor was slightly stunned by the performance of this potential queen ant, only snapping out of his daze when Penny's comments brought him back to reality.

To thank the boy for the clue, Thor then prepared a bottle of mental recovery potion for him.

Although this medicine cannot completely cure the boy's mental atrophy, it can at least keep him healthy for a few more years.

To live longer, he would need to become a wizard's apprentice, but given his mental state, he is not capable of doing so.

This is an endless loop.

Finally, Saul gave the boy some money. This would prevent him from being coveted by others and slightly improve his future life.

The boy was clever and didn't think Saul's offer was too little. He even understood Saul's intention immediately and thanked him sincerely.

Saul said goodbye to the boy for the second time, watching him run towards the settlement to reunite with his father, and couldn't help but sigh: "Ordinary people living in extraordinary places may not even know if they will have the chance to open their eyes the next day."

Penny said with a grin, "Brother Thor thinks he's good. Why don't we take him back as a little servant? Butler Hope is short-handed and has to do everything himself."

"The Spirit Cleansing Wizard Tower isn't exactly a good place for ordinary people either." Thor didn't think the place he was in was any kind of benevolent place.

With a bountiful harvest, he embarked on his journey home.

Thor left the Spirit Cleansing Wizard Tower for half a month. When he returned, he rubbed his eyes, thinking he had gone to the wrong place.

Two rings of mushrooms have been planted around the outskirts of Lake Rhine?

These mushrooms are each half a person's height and as thick as a person, as sturdy as a row of small stools.

Without a doubt, these mushrooms must have been planted by Mash.

Since arriving at Lake Rhine, Sol rarely went out, and when he did, he generally didn't need a car. Therefore, Marsh, who had previously worked as a coachman, became a farmer and started growing mushrooms in a corner of the island to improve everyone's diet.

However, space on the island was limited, and the small white mushrooms were very resilient, so Marsh soon lost his job again.

Before Thor left this time, he spent his days squatting by the lake, seemingly lost in thought.

Unexpectedly, when Thor returned, he found a wall of mushrooms.

Just as he curiously stepped forward to take a look, Marsh squeezed out from behind a row of mushrooms. "Lord Thor, you're back!"

He smiled憨厚ly, holding a few small, grayish-white mushrooms covered in dirt in his hands.

Thor chuckled and took a mushroom from Marsh's hand. "Can this mushroom really grow this big?"

"Yes, yes." Marsh nodded repeatedly, "It can grow even bigger! Don't underestimate it; if you cultivate it properly, it has many uses."

Thor put the small mushroom back in Marsh's hand, then tapped the large mushrooms that were half a person's height and found that although they looked soft, they were actually very tough.

If these mushrooms were to grow any taller, they could indeed be used as protective walls.

However, it can only resist physical damage, and still cannot withstand witchcraft.

Marsh stood aside watching Thor test the mushroom wall, feeling a little nervous, unsure whether the adults would agree to him growing mushrooms outside.

If not, he would have to dismantle it overnight.

Thinking about the workload, he regretted it a little; he should have waited for Thor to come back before planting.

However, although they can't deal with wizards, it's not a big deal.

Thor patted Marsh on the shoulder. "Go ahead and plant it if you want. You can try to grow it a little taller. Oh, just don't forget to leave an entrance."

Marsh was overjoyed and quickly demonstrated to Thor, "Sir, you see, there's a way."

He raised his hand and tapped a mushroom, which immediately slumped down and lay flat on the ground in a bizarre, prostrate position.

"Sir, the mushrooms and I have made an agreement that we will open the door for you, no matter where you come in from."

Thor opened his mouth, unsure how to respond. He forced a smile. "Then you continue, I'm going back."

Marsh hurriedly saw Thor off, his face beaming with excitement.

Thor stepped onto the frozen Rhine Lake, his feet crunching on the perfectly firm mushrooms, while across the lake, his butler Hope drove his wolf-drawn carriage.

"Welcome home, Tower Master."

Ann, who was left behind at the Wizard Tower, jumped up excitedly and waved.

Beside her stood an old witch wearing a hood, her expression obscured, leaning against the door with her arms crossed.

With the return of its master, the lifeless wizard tower has been revitalized.

Thor breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he has lived here for less than a year, he has gradually come to feel at home.

After returning from the survivor Gulin, Thor and Camus officially began constructing the magic-accumulating pool, while entrusting the task of cultivating termites to the butler Hope.

An old witch who usually does nothing but adapt to her perfect body volunteered to join the work of cultivating quicksand termites.

However, she was neither good at taking care of people nor ants. In order to prevent the old witch from continuing to wreak havoc on the termites, the housekeeper Hope assigned her some seemingly important but actually frivolous tasks.

While building the magic storage pool, Thor also made sure to improve the spiritual protective membrane for his several consciousness entities.

Time flies, and another six months have passed in a flash.

The seasons in the No Man's Land are distinct by region.

Lake Rhine has transitioned from the depths of winter to early winter, and patches of gray-white mushroom groves have already sprung up along its shores.

The mushroom grove wasn't as densely planted as the ones along the lakeside wall; it looked more like a forest.

Beneath the giant mushroom tree, there were clusters of small mushrooms.

White spores float in the air, seamlessly blending with the white mist over Lake Rhine.

The weather is clear, and the fog has thinned out a bit today.

Having stayed up all night, Saul carried a small stool made of dehydrated mushrooms to the lake early this morning.

He easily made a small hole in the ice with his dagger, then took out a thin wooden pole and tied Xiao Zao to it.

Casting rod.

Enter the water.

The fishing line, without a float, sways gently in the water.

Thor leaned back, half-closing his eyes, waiting for the "fishing line" to bite the "fish".

During this period, Thor would choose to relax in this way after each period of intense mental exertion.

While waiting for Xiaozao to bite into a Soul Popsicle, he would clear his mind and enter a state where he didn't need to think.

daze.

If life could continue to be this peaceful, he wouldn't mind if it took him a little longer to get promoted.

However, tranquility is meant to be broken.

While we waited, the outermost mushroom tree in the mushroom forest began to sway from side to side.

Then came the second tree, and the third tree.

It was like someone touching the surface of the water, and the ripples gradually spread out.

Someone is coming.

Thor snapped out of his daze and turned his head to look; the person was still sitting in the chair.

Two mushrooms near Lake Rhine fell over, revealing two figures.

Jaja, carrying an even larger bag, was waving excitedly at Thor.

Standing beside him was a middle-aged man with an expressionless face. The man's face was covered by a metal mask, and his eyes, which were exposed, were eerily green like will-o'-the-wisps in a graveyard.

Although magic is forbidden on Lake Rhine, mental power is unaffected. Thor could sense that Gaja had brought a second-tier wizard with him this time.

The lake water suddenly began to ripple, and the black, vine-like tentacles rapidly contracted.

The little algae suddenly leaped out of the water, its pointed head still holding a human-shaped popsicle in its mouth.

The big fish took the bait.

effort!
