Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 724 Cooperation

The photo stone was placed on the orange cat.

Because it was constantly moving, the visuals were quite chaotic.

However, with Thor's mental strength, he didn't feel confused. On the contrary, because the orange cat frequently changed positions, he could gain a more complete understanding of the situation inside Baidong Academy.

Through the memory stone, he also discovered that the orange cat likely specialized in earth-elemental magic. When attacking, it primarily used its small size as bait to lure enemies, then unleashed earth spikes and traps from the ground to kill them.

The white-bearded wizard's specialization in witchcraft is currently unknown.

But it seems he's using... his own hair to attack?

Thor saw him use the hairs on his arms to cut or deflect the attacks of numerous tree roots.

The soft body hair on his body transformed directly into steel needles. When the needles were sparsely arranged, they became sharp weapons; when they were densely arranged, they became sturdy shields.

In addition, Thor also paid special attention to the fairy companion on the white-bearded man's shoulder.

The companion fairy did not make any move or gesture during Whitebeard's battle.

It seems like they can't help in any way.

But if that's the case, Whitebeard could easily have his companion fairy hide during battle to avoid being affected.

"The other party retains a companion fairy; what purpose must it serve?"

Thor continued to observe and finally discovered a clue.

The tree roots pierced by the white beard seemed to turn into withered branches.

However, the orange cat seemed to intentionally prevent this scene from being captured on the memory stone, so Thor only deduced the result by recombining several scattered images.

"A photo stone cannot be faked, but it can still mislead people. Especially this kind of half-real, half-fake one, which is the easiest to fool. They may not be targeting me, but they are definitely the kind of people who habitually keep a backup plan in their daily lives."

After looking at it once, Thor understood and returned the memory stone to the orange cat.

"Those tree roots are indeed difficult to deal with. However, my major sorcery is perfect for countering enemies that attack in groups."

"Really?" The orange cat was still somewhat skeptical. "We've already shown you our fighting methods. If you're sincere, now show us your specialty, witchcraft!"

Whitebeard, standing to the side, tried a different approach, persuading Thor, "If we could understand each other's attack patterns, it would definitely be much easier in the fight."

Thor naturally understood this, since he wasn't actually going to demonstrate his true sorcery anyway.

We're all equally bad.

He felt no burden, raised his arms, and two black blades appeared out of thin air in his palms.

A second later, the two blades split into four, then into eight...

Finally, hundreds of black blades appeared around Thor's body.

It looked cold and menacing, but there was no murderous intent or fluctuation in its power.

"How terrifying!" The orange cat's eyes widened. "A powerful attack combined with extreme stealth makes it perfect for assassinating someone in the shadows!"

The white-bearded man on the other side also widened his eyes and blurted out, "Soul Blade!"

Thor immediately turned his head to the side.

This was the first time he had heard someone call out the real name of this witchcraft since he learned it from Jassim's inherited knowledge and memories.

"What are you to Jassim?" the white-bearded man continued.

His beard trembled slightly, as if he were very excited.

"I met the sorcerer Jassim a few times. Then he suddenly taught me this sorcery, saying that he didn't want it to disappear."

The white-bearded man nodded, looking somewhat dejected. "That's just his style."

"What is your relationship with Wizard Jassim? I remember Wizard Jassim is supposed to be an adjudicator wizard in the Tribunal," Thor asked in return.

"Me? I'm just like him, a pawn abandoned by the Tribunal."

Whitebeard was unwilling to say more at this point, but his expression softened considerably. He said to Thor, "Now that you have his approval, I believe we will succeed this time."

The orange cat, jumping around impatiently at the two's sudden reminiscing, quickly asked, "So, we've reached a cooperation agreement, right? Do we need to sign a contract scroll? If not, shall we go to Baidong Academy now?"

"A contract isn't necessary, but I need a little more time to prepare."

"Huh?" The orange cat sounded a little disappointed. "You seem to be in great shape. Is there anything else we need to prepare?"

The white-bearded man picked up the orange cat. "Isn't it normal for someone to need time to prepare when you suddenly ask for a collaboration?"

He then said to Thor, "How long do you need to prepare? I'm not rushing you, but this matter will definitely attract more wizards who want to advance to the third tier. Once there are more people, there will be more trouble and unforeseen events."

Thor glanced at the sky. "It won't be long. We'll meet at the main gate of Bydon Academy at sunrise tomorrow."

"Okay." The white-bearded man nodded, picked up the orange cat, and turned to leave.

After their figures disappeared into the ruins of the low-rise building, Herman asked Thor with a puzzled look, "Master, what are you preparing for tonight?"

Penny wanted to rub her antennae together. "Should we set up an ambush at Bai Dong Academy beforehand and catch them both in one fell swoop?"

"Do I need to prepare all night to wipe them out in one fell swoop?" Thor scoffed, turning to walk back. "I haven't finished what I need to do yet."

Penny was still wondering if Saul had something left undone, but Saul simply returned to his old house and continued scavenging.

However, in between scavenging, Thor would set up some magical arrays in several rooms.

Some of these magic arrays were spirit-gathering arrays, some were explosive arrays, and some Penny couldn't understand.

There's nothing we can do; it's just a lazy, unambitious butterfly.

As Thor grew stronger, his knowledge base became insufficient.

However, it still feels superior to Hermann.

"Look, Thor is definitely preparing a big move," Penny whispered to Herman.

They were busy like this until the sun went down before going back up the mountain.

Thor arrived at the main gate of Bydon College on time.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a cat jump down from the crossbeam.

"You arrived just in time."

"And what about that white-bearded gentleman?"

The orange cat meowed and laughed, "Meow...you actually called him Whitebeard?"

"It's just a temporary name." Thor didn't intend to tell them his real name.

"Then what did you call me?"

"Lord Orange Cat".

"Meow! I'm not an orange cat! I'm... no, I'm not a cat."

Thor glanced at the orange cat's eyes and thought to himself, "This wizard has been in cat form for so long that his spirit has been corrupted. If he can't resolve the corruption in time, he'll eventually become mutated."

However, Thor has not pointed this out yet.

The orange cat seemed completely oblivious to its own unusual mental state. "Then I'll call you... call you..."

He couldn't immediately think of anything particularly striking about Thor.

Although Thor's appearance is not bad, he looks too normal.

"Oh, right, I'll call you Black Blade Wizard!"

Finally, the orange cat remembered the powerful magic Thor had cast yesterday.

"How is it? Not bad, right?"

The orange cat seemed quite pleased with itself, meowing loudly.

"You haven't answered my question yet."

"Wang... Oh, Whitebeard is preparing the magic array inside. Once we get there, we can officially begin the assault."

"Let's go then." Thor took off the hood of his cloak and went inside first.
