Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 730 The Shady Merchant Thor

Kate had never heard of "The Cat Returns," but now she has witnessed it firsthand.

This guy didn't seem to feel fear in the dark.

He walked along the endless road, carrying the cat in his arms. From time to time, dark figures would appear among the tall buildings around him, staring at the man and the cat.

Despite being carried by Saul, Kate still felt waves of fear.

He tucked his hands and feet in, his eyes darting left and right, as if he had completely forgotten that he was a wizard.

What he hated most was that every time Saul walked past a streetlamp, he would stop and wait for a while, taking advantage of Kate's sensitivity to fear to gather the shadowy figures hidden in the dark.

Soon, many dark figures will gather around the streetlights, making the already dim light even dimmer.

When these shadowy figures gather to a certain extent, Thor will use a special method to shake the tall, thin shadowy figures into a pile of powder.

Kate had no idea how Thor resisted the terrifying pressure emanating from these shadowy figures.

We can't just tough it out with our spiritual body, can we?

After passing the third streetlight, Kate finally spoke, her voice trembling.

"Blackblade Wizard, are you trying to eliminate the enemies here this way? But I don't think it will work."

The orange cat quickly glanced at the tall buildings around it.

The fear these buildings instilled in him was not lessened in the slightest by Thor killing some of the shadowy figures.

"I think these shadowy figures are just things attached to this place. Breaking them won't affect this place."

"Actually, I didn't smash these shadows to destroy this place." Thor took two more steps forward, then stopped. "Have you felt that there are eyes watching us the whole time?"

The orange cat stiffly stretched out its front paws. "Of course there are, they've always been there. Ever since I came in, these shadowy figures have been watching me. By the streetlights, in the room, and even the moon in the sky! What moon? It's clearly the most terrifying eye here!"

Saul suddenly interrupted Kate: "You're right."

"?" Kate asked, first with a puzzled look, then emphasized, "Right? Rather than wasting our time like this..."

To everyone's surprise, Thor looked up and stared at the moon overhead.

"I've been feeling a gaze ever since I came in. That gaze is different from everyone else here, very special... because it's very rational."

"Rationality?" Kate was a little confused.

"It's normal that you don't know, after all, you don't know exactly where you are or what our situation is."

"You know?"

"Hmm." Thor looked up, his gaze fixed on the moon overhead.

The moon then turned into a full moon.

It seemed as if he was also making eye contact with Thor.

Thor said loudly, "This place is actually a replica of the city of Archaeost by the Inverted Tree. But there has always been an entity here that does not belong to Archaeost, which has gone undiscovered. It exists so blatantly that I have never considered that it might not be a product of the Inverted Tree."

Under Thor's watchful gaze, the moon overhead gradually curved upwards.

"Right, Mr. Moon?"

As soon as Thor finished speaking, the moon fell from the sky at the speed of free fall.

"That, isn't that the moon?" Kate was finally free. She immediately jumped off Thor's hand and ran back seven or eight steps before stopping and turning to look at the sky.

"What's so strange about that?" The moon fell directly in front of Thor, hovering about a meter above the ground.

Only when you get close can you see that the moon is actually just a sphere of light.

Suddenly, two eyes and a mouth appeared on its shell, and it immediately started complaining about the orange cat.

"Is the moon you see really the moon? Just because you look like a fat cat doesn't mean you're actually a cat. Do you think everything around you is an illusion?"

Kate was stunned by the moon's impact.

Although he really wanted to say that he wasn't fat, he didn't get the chance to say it.

Seeing that the orange cat had stopped reacting, the moon seemed to think he posed no threat and looked at Thor again.

"I saw you the moment you walked in, and I knew you weren't a good person. You pretended to be honest and fooled everyone, including me. Damn it, trusting strangers really does come at a price!"

Thor raised an eyebrow; he suddenly knew who the moon in front of him was.

"Char Aznable, the wizard?"

"You don't need to pretend anymore. If you didn't know who I am, would you deliberately show off your strength in front of me to lure me out?"

Char has had another episode.

They always assume the worst about others.

However, it may be precisely because of this personality that he became an anomaly among the spirits absorbed by the upside-down tree.

"Think what you want," Thor said, not bothering to explain. "I came here wanting something, but the upside-down tree has clearly changed. So I need to figure out one thing: what's wrong with this tree now? And who is its owner?"

Stunned by Char's question, Kate couldn't help but turn her gaze to Thor.

"Who is this Blackblade Wizard? He seems to know more than Wilde." A cold glint flashed in the orange cat's big, innocent eyes, then disappeared in an instant, returning it to its dazed and confused state.

He tried his best to minimize his presence while listening intently to their conversation.

"Hmph, why should I tell you?" Char, now transformed into the moon, scoffed. "Do you also covet the Upside-Down Tree? That's not something you can even dream of!"

Thor crossed his arms and retorted sarcastically, "Why do you care about these things? Anyway, no matter who it is, it can't be you, just a spirit that has long since become a puppet."

The moon's eyes narrowed sharply. "Are you trying to provoke me? Don't waste your time. Just know that without my help, you will be trapped in the upside-down city forever, until you too become cocoons of the upside-down tree."

The moon menacingly threatened Thor and Kate.

"That's none of your concern." Thor suddenly leaned forward and reached out to touch the moon.

The moon rose rapidly, reaching the height of the streetlights in the blink of an eye.

But Thor was no slouch either. Moreover, the gray, translucent tentacles he suddenly swung out were even faster, stopping the moon halfway through its journey and quickly wrapping around it, tying a knot in its body.

"You?" Seeing Thor make his move, Char seemed to have forgotten that he had fallen from the sky on his own initiative. "You liar, you really did want to kill me!"

Char, who had been living among the upside-down trees for many years, was angry but not alarmed.

He cursed as he prepared to change his form and escape from the "knot" Thor had created.

And so, in the blink of an eye, the round moon turned into a crescent moon.

But Xia discovered that the ropes binding him were shrinking along with him!

It turned out that the tentacles binding him had rows of suction cups on them, firmly adhering to the surface of the moon.

Thor calmly pulled back his tentacles, watching Char try to break free but couldn't.

"Although your consciousness is still independent, it has clearly been influenced by the inverted tree. If it weren't for you, we might be able to stay in this inverted city, but without me, you will gradually lose yourself in the pretense."

Char's struggling movements slowed down noticeably.

Clearly, he understood this as well, otherwise he wouldn't have been in such a hurry to show himself to Thor.

Compared to Thor, who was trapped in the upside-down city, Char was the one who was more eager to escape.

Char transformed back into a full moon. "What exactly are you going to do?"

Thor smiled. "Let's make a deal. I'll heal you, and you get me the seed of the Upside-Down Tree, if it hasn't rotted yet."
