Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 686 What are you waiting for?

However, Camus seemed only interested in activating the eye of the storm. Once the eye of the storm began to operate, she did not reappear, even though she was temporarily suppressed by Byron.

To save Thor, Byron did not hesitate to use the power of the Elf King.

And it was done with all one's might.

Using power beyond his limits will definitely come at a considerable price for him.

Thor was well aware of this, so upon realizing what Byron was doing, he immediately spread the word that Corey had asked her to prepare the Ice Locking Array.

"How did he know I had an ice-locking magic array?" Corey was a little puzzled, but he quickly began to set it up as Thor had asked.

Just as Saul was about to ask Pelle to fetch Corey's mirror, he was suddenly blinded by a blinding flash of light.

He quickly turned his head and saw a black crack suddenly appear behind Byron.

This black crack may not actually be black; it's just that because nothing can be seen, those who see it feel that a piece of the world is missing, leaving only nothingness.

However, within the black crack, some colorful halos soon appeared.

The edges of these halos are irregular arcs and are constantly changing, like ripples on water.

The ever-changing halo of light vaguely resembled a human figure.

Clusters of light appeared from behind Byron, protruding with several smooth ridges, like arms or some kind of tentacles. They were like affectionate lovers, caressing Byron's shoulders and chest from his back.

"An elf!"

My friend exclaimed in surprise beside me.

Thor rushed forward, his arms transforming into tentacles, attempting to use his soul to fish and drive away the halo behind Byron.

But just when he thought he had rushed up to Byron at lightning speed, he suddenly realized that he had only lifted the first foot.

Time has slowed down!

No, it's not time, it's that Thor's perception of time is distorted.

This seems to be an ability unique to elves; Thor had witnessed it once in the wizard's tower.

Thor's mind seemed to slow down. He desperately tried to dispel the aura, but could only watch helplessly as Byron was enveloped by the aura and then slowly dragged into the black crevices.

Even after Byron completely disappeared, he continued to use the powerful energy from the Elf King to help Thor control the eye of the storm.

After the halo and Byron disappeared into the black gap, the gap itself vanished abruptly.

It was as abrupt as its appearance.

The feeling of being out of control disappeared, but his consciousness and limbs became uncoordinated, and Thor staggered and almost fell to the ground.

He steadied himself against the energy pillar beside him before standing up again.

"This method won't work either."

Suppressing his inner turmoil, Thor took a deep breath and tried to regain his composure.

Without Byron's suppression, the eye of the storm retaliated by increasing its rotation speed.

The black tide poured out almost in the blink of an eye.

This time, Thor and his friends were among the first to be swallowed by the Black Tide.

But this time, Thor escaped the Black Tide even faster than before.

At his feet, Ann, Agu, and Herman, who had just used their last bit of reason to help him exhaust himself, transformed into irrational evil spirits amidst their wails.

The tragedy of the past has been repeated.

Pei'er quickly lost consciousness and plummeted into the sky.

Saul, who was beside her, tried to pull her back, but found that no matter whether he grabbed her hand or arm, that part of her body would melt like butter meeting a red-hot knife.

He couldn't catch her at all.

"Lord Thor!"

Shouts came from a distant place.

Thor turned his head and saw Marsh, who was appearing for the first time in the golden pages.

He was standing on a giant, upside-down mushroom, paddling across the Kuroshio Current with another mushroom.

But at this time, Marsh's body was covered with mushrooms.

Mushrooms sprouted from every pore of his body, growing wildly. Soon, Marsh's rowing movements became stiff.

Finally, when he had completely transformed into hundreds of mushrooms clustered together, his shouts also ceased.

Thor watched silently.

With a wave of his hand, he collected all the already demonized consciousnesses into his diary.

However, the black pages they transformed back into were tattered and broken.

There was no silver lettering on the pages either.

Thor waved again, trying to retrieve Marsh's soul, but found that the other was too far away.

Saul was no longer angry or pained; he turned in another direction.

"Herbert should also undergo a mutation next."

Sure enough, the firelight soon illuminated Thor's face, which had turned into a black skeleton.

"After Herbert's mutation, the others also died quickly... Wait, something's not right!"

Thor's neck snapped, and his cervical bones cracked.

"How could Herbert have mutated faster than other low-level wizards?"

Thor either came out too late or didn't pay attention to the area, so he didn't notice that Herbert's mutation was happening at an abnormal pace.

It was as if he hadn't struggled at all, voluntarily letting go of all defenses and allowing the Kuroshio to pollute him.

This time, Thor did not try to escape. Instead, he used the last of his magic powers that still obeyed him to summon Diudiu, the giant bird that was pacing anxiously high in the sky.

Diudiu was clearly also affected by the Black Tide. When Thor made it put down its tentacles to pull itself to the other side of the sea of ​​fire, Diudiu put down a large number of tentacles that looked like long-legged insect legs.

Saul felt a chill run down his spine.

However, Diudiu's flight does not rely on magic, so this function has not been lost yet.

Thor reached out and grabbed the drooping tentacles, and the other tentacles began trying to burrow into his skin—of course, they failed, and Thor now had no skin left.

With Diudiu's vigorous flapping of its wings, Thor finally reached the surface of the fiery sea.

And he finally saw clearly what had happened here.

The crimson flames did indeed burn above the Kuroshio, but they didn't touch the Kuroshio at all. Instead, they burned on layers of melting, rotting corpses floating on the surface of the water!

The corpses swayed with the waves, and the rows of flames above them constantly changed shape.

Finally, it turned into a terrifying, demonic smile.

"Herbert's state isn't one of alienation," Thor finally understood. "He's burning the lives of others to provide himself with power, thus maintaining his sanity."

If Herbert in this state is not alienated, then is he also not corrupted or alienated in his precognitive dreams?

"Sol!"

Thor heard a familiar voice again.

He scanned the flames below and finally spotted Brando's head in a corner!

Brando's body was burning, but his head seemed to have been protected from the flames by the helmet.

"Help me!"

Brando desperately begged Thor for help.

Saul knew perfectly well that in the scenario he was rehearsing within the Golden Pages, saving people was utterly pointless...

But he still rushed down.

But Herbert's flames suddenly flared up.

"There should be enough dead bodies here for you to get out of here." Thor had been wary of the flames, and now he managed to dodge them with his Diudiu.

Herbert said nothing, but then lashed out with a few more fire whips.

Fortunately, the opponent was also resisting the pollution, so they couldn't focus on attacking Thor.

Thor dodged again, his eye sockets, devoid of pupils, already cold.

"Several times you turned into flames, but now it seems you still have the strength to leave. But you're just pretending to be corrupted and burning here."

Why don't you leave?

"What are you waiting for?"

"What are you looking for?"

"Yes, you're waiting for the eye of the storm to erupt."

"You're waiting for the anchor point to appear!"

The flames froze for a moment, then suddenly launched a fierce attack on Thor.

Thor jumped away again, but Diudiu was ignited.

"Chirp—"

It let out a mournful cry, and then all its long whiskers suddenly exerted force together, flinging Thor far away before the flames could fully spread.

Then, the pale yellow giant bird transformed into a large ball of bright flame and plunged into the black tide with a hissing sound.
