Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 720 Internal and External Coordination

"The Upside-Down Tree, Beth, and what he said about Char's sneak attack. I remember when I left, Char was already controlled by the Upside-Down Tree, but he seemed to still have his own consciousness. Could it be that his consciousness influenced the Upside-Down Tree?"

This wizard Char is truly extraordinary. Although he suffers from severe paranoia, his strength is unfathomable.

An upside-down tree and a second-tier wizard were both driven out of control by him.

Of course, it's not certain whether things are really as Jonah says.

It's not that Jonah lies, but rather that everything he knows may be inaccurate.

But now at least we know that the inverted tree is in a bad state, and that Bai Dong Academy is obviously plotting something in an extreme way.

"Those pierced by the tree roots were sealed in a beeswax-like resin. What happened after that? Why did the entire city become ruins? Why are the people in the outer city still living as before? Do they know what happened in the inner city?"

Jonah gave a bitter laugh. "I don't know the rest. I... I'm looking..."

He suddenly felt a little lost, as if he couldn't figure out where he was or what he was doing.

"Brother Thor, he's about to wake up," Penny reminded Thor.

Thor understood that if Jonah realized that his real body had become a mutilated corpse, he would probably immediately realize that he was dreaming.

Thor immediately asked, "Since you witnessed what happened to those people, do you know what the Dean plans to do next? I heard you say the Dean complained that the cocoons weren't enough; does that mean he killed everyone else in the inner city? Where are Beth, the Dean, and those who turned into cocoons now?"

Jonah was stunned by Saul's barrage of questions, and he stared blankly at Saul.

Just when Saul thought his brain was at full capacity, Jonah suddenly grabbed Saul's arm with such force that he almost broke it.

You won't find them. They're no longer in this world.

Saul let Jonah hold onto his arm tightly, like a drowning man grasping at his only straw.

"Then...where are they?" Thor asked softly.

"They're...you can't find them...hehehe..." Jonah suddenly laughed eerily. "I remember now, in the last moment before the tree disappeared, I sacrificed my limbs and some organs to escape from the beeswax. I remember now."

He slowly released Saul's arm, his face a mixture of tears and laughter. "But I've lost the most important thing. I have to find it back."

The scene around Thor began to blur, as if someone was adjusting the pixels of the world in his eyes.

The blocky feel is getting stronger.

The world is becoming increasingly fake.

The dream began to crumble.

The building blocks that make up the dream are collapsing and scattering.

Along with the room, Jonah's intact and healthy skin also peeled away.

When the flesh-colored and black building blocks fell off Jonah's body, what was revealed was not the mutilated human body that Thor had seen in the outside world.

Instead, it was a human figure made of ashes.

"We should go, Brother Thor." Penny's voice also turned serious. "We must leave before we wake up from this dream, or the way out will become a maze of yarn."

Although Saul still had some questions unanswered, he could only nod.

In the dream world, third-tier wizards cannot rely on external magic.

Because there is only spiritual power here, not magic.

Two silver wings suddenly emerged from behind Thor.

With a sudden flap of its wings, the whole world began to rush backward.

The ashes in front of them quickly moved away.

The world gradually darkened, then brightened in an instant.

But this brightness also carried a hint of darkness.

Thor opened his eyes and saw the wizard Jonah lying on the ground in front of him, curled up like a baby.

His head was turned to the right, resting on his arm without fingers, and his thigh, which had lost its lower leg, was curled inward as much as possible.

They huddled together.

His face still lacked features.

All Saul gave him were eyes in a dream.

But on that face that had nothing on it, Thor saw a trace of peace.

he died.

The moment he realized it.

Thor slowly walked forward and gently patted Jonah on the back.

This man, who had struggled for who knows how long in the ancient city of Archaesta, collapsed like mosquito coil ash scattered on the ground with a gentle touch.

It turned into familiar gray powder, adding another cloud of dust to this messy room.

"Oh dear," Penny said calmly, showing no sadness towards the others, "it seems he didn't really survive that massacre."

Saul stood there for a while, which made Penny and Herman too afraid to speak in the end.

I have no idea what Thor is thinking.

After a while, the entire inner city became even darker, and Thor finally moved.

He left the house, returned to the room opposite, and with a wave of his hand, swept the dust into a corner.

The room wasn't exactly brand new, but at least it wasn't covered in dust.

Saul walked to the dining table in the hall of the room, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

On the table in front of him appeared a huge quill pen and several unused parchment sheets.

Saul picked up the ridiculously large quill, flicked it lightly, and then began to write on the parchment.

"Claire, I need you to do a few things for me outside..."

……

The package on Keli suddenly vibrated. She looked down and pulled out a piece of parchment with delicate lace from a small, exquisite leather bag, which she then spread out on her lap.

"Tch, they won't take me in, yet they make me do all this."

He complained, but a smile was on his face.

Although she and Saul have always been friends, she can't interfere in anything Saul does.

The other party was progressing too fast, and she could only watch from behind. Even the little help that Saul gave her was very beneficial to her.

This inevitably caused Keli, who considered herself a genius, to feel anxious.

That's why, after she woke up under the collapsed wizard tower, she didn't go with Byron to find Thor.

With her abilities, she would have only been a hindrance in the past.

So when Grand Duke Kira invited her to the capital and promised to help her become a full-fledged wizard as soon as possible, Claire agreed without hesitation.

It wasn't entirely for her family's sake.

Being able to help Saul today at least gave her some comfort.

She jumped down from the tree, and then Ann and Agu came over.

They had already left the original town and were hiding in the woods outside.

"Is this a message from the master?" Ann was very curious, her eyes involuntarily glancing at the parchment in Ke Li's hand.

Agu, standing to the side, was very well-behaved and didn't peek at all; he just stared at the huge quill pen in Keli's hand.

"A communication pen?"

Claire chuckled, "Yes, after the Gorsa Wizard Tower collapsed, Thor and I each took one. This pen can't be used at very long distances, but Thor has strong mental power, so he modified it and can barely use it at this distance."

Ann wasn't interested in the communication pen; she asked anxiously, "Does Master have something for us to do?"

Claire's smile faded. "He asked us to help set up some magic arrays outside. These arrays are so strange; I've never seen them before."

Keli unfolded the parchment and showed it to the two consciousnesses opposite her.

With permission, Ann and Agu both came over.

On the yellowed, soft parchment, below a few lines of text, were five intricate miniature magic circles.

These magic circles also have intersecting lines.

They formed a pentagram.
