Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 627 Killing the Rat

The giant rat flashed by, and Thor remained focused on the reappearing black woman.

"It seems you are not the true master of this world either."

The third-tier wizard has entered the old manor and, perhaps attracted by the commotion above, has gone to the upper levels of the manor.

"Then it's useless."

After saying that, Saul pretended to leave.

"Wait, you can't leave, you're my toy." The woman said, reaching out to grab Thor.

Thor twisted his body sharply to dodge the witch's hand, only to see that the witch's face was now contorted with rage, and her entire body suddenly grew larger, as if a giant net were covering Thor.

Thor raised his hand to block, and a protective shield crackling with electricity enveloped him.

The blinding light from the electric shield immediately made the witch cover her eyes and retreat.

Thor turned and chased after her, a black blade materializing in his palm, which he immediately thrust at the shrunken witch.

The witch's eyes had not yet recovered, and she instinctively hid on the ground.

However, Thor's black blade abruptly changed direction half a meter away from the witch, shooting towards an empty corner instead.

The black blade suddenly vanished in mid-air, followed by a piercing scream.

"squeak--"

"It really is a big rat." Thor immediately abandoned the stains on the ground and attacked the corner of the room, following the scene he had just witnessed.

The will here obscures direction and even prevents Thor from perceiving the room's layout, but it cannot truly make life disappear.

A mouthful of blood gushed from the air, and then the surrounding scenery began to change as if fading.

Thor immediately felt the change in gravity on his body.

He fell halfway down, then immediately flew, and then, upside down, saw that the entire room was exactly the same as the room he had just seen in the flashback.

It's just that the top and bottom are reversed.

At the spot where Thor had just attacked, a huge rat, almost big enough to swallow three adults, rapidly grew larger in his field of vision and opened its blood-red maw toward Thor.

"Whoosh—"

Black tentacles suddenly sprang out from behind Thor and plunged straight into the rat's foul-smelling throat.

However, just as the algae was about to pierce the rat, five or six arms suddenly emerged from the rat's throat, grabbed the algae, and pulled it forcefully, seemingly trying to tear it off.

At that moment, the giant rat suddenly snapped its jaws shut, attempting to sever the black tentacles with its sharp teeth.

Thor immediately grabbed the giant rat's upper and lower jaws, forcing its mouth to stop in mid-air, unable to close.

But before Thor could pry open the giant rat's mouth, several more arms with skin that had corroded to the point of exposing black bones emerged from its mouth.

"This rat has probably devoured countless wizards by exploiting spatial distortions. And its level of mutation is probably no less than that of the witch from before."

Thor quickly looked up and found that the stain on the ceiling was quiet and did not seem to be helping the giant rat attack him.

The black blades coalesced once more around Thor, sliding like shattered glass towards the arm in the rat's mouth.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

The sharp blade severed both arms and continued forward, cutting off all the arms binding Xiaozao.

The little algae, now free, did not retreat. Taking advantage of its ability to move, its round head instantly grew longer and pointed.

It silently pierced the back of the giant rat's head.

"squeak--"

The giant rat immediately let out a sharp cry and struggled painfully.

As it screamed, Thor discovered that the gravity in the room seemed to be changing again.

The sky and the ground seemed to have switched directions.

If they were to re-enter the false space, the giant rats would likely seize the opportunity to leave, waiting for them to die from the pollution before returning to devour their corpses.

This rat has managed to survive by consuming mutated corpses, and has probably become part of this old manor.

"Should we use the consciousness battlefield?"

Using the Battlefield of Consciousness is a quick way to deal with the giant rats, but Thor has hidden something in his consciousness, fearing that if he uses it even slightly, a being with a very powerful consciousness will discover his abnormality.

"No!"

Thor gritted his teeth and suppressed the urge to use his trump card. Then, before the entire room was swallowed up by the alternate dimension again, he suddenly pulled his upper body's soul out of his body, leaving only his lower body connected.

Just then, the air rippled again, and the space that was transforming stopped once more.

"Oh, right, there are three Tier 3s outside." Thor, whose soul had left his body, revealed a surprised smile.

The giant rat seemed to sense Thor's change, and its sharp squeak was now tinged with fear.

Several overlapping black shadows also appeared on the surface of the rat's body.

Those dark figures looked like suffering humans, struggling desperately to break free.

Thor stared expressionlessly at the shadowy figures. His soul form gradually grew more than a dozen tentacles, each with suckers and sharp teeth, enveloping the giant rat completely.

A moment later, Thor's spirit returned.

His body fell again, landing on an overturned table.

The spatial changes finally stopped, and not only that, the changes seemed to have extended outwards from this room.

"Snapped!"

When Xiao Zao returned, the giant rat's corpse fell to the ground, now transformed into an irregular rat skin.

The small algae approached Thor and opened its shark-tooth-like mouth.

A monocle fell off.

"Aren't these the eyes of that blue-haired wizard? They've been eaten by rats?"

Thor had no idea what had happened to the blue-haired wizard, but he never expected that when he saw him again, the other man would only have one relic left.

Little Algae opened the giant rat's belly, and Thor discovered the source of contamination within its corrupted soul.

Based on his experience treating others during this time, he was basically certain that this source of contamination was the reason why the giant rats could devour the corpses of other wizards.

However, this source of pollution is not the eye of the storm.

Its ability to contain all kinds of pollution is completely different from the characteristics of the eye of the storm as described by Peir.

"This rat isn't the eye of the storm either. Is the eye of the storm the place where the chaotic radiation fluctuations just came from?"

Thor found it a bit strange.

The eye of the storm isn't actually on the former owner of the manor. Could it be that the anomalies in the former manor are actually unrelated to the eye of the storm?

The giant rat died, the space was restored, and the chaos ceased.

The corpses scattered on the ground, pitted and mangled from being eaten, suddenly began to decompose rapidly, making it impossible to discern their original identities.

At the same time, it was as if some kind of constraint and barrier had been broken.

A sudden, explosive sound, like the impact of magic, came from the spiral staircase.

Surprisingly, it wasn't far from where Thor was.

Before the space was restored, he had no sense of any other people around him.

Just as Thor was about to rush out of the room, he looked up and saw black stains on the ceiling.

It looked like black mold had grown there due to years of dampness and seepage.

Quiet and unnoticed.

Sol took flight and flew to the stain.

"Are you... still here?"

Although there were many mutilated corpses lying at my feet, only this stain faintly emitted spiritual fluctuations.

Thor suddenly realized that although the giant rat he had killed might be controlling the changes in the manor's space, the story of the manor's owner might not be false.
