Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 734 Exit

"What is this?" Xia looked down and didn't notice that there was an extra eye between his eyebrows.

What Thor gave him was a white tooth encased in a gray, transparent substance.

It looks like the teeth of a wild beast encased in gray amber.

"It's teeth," Thor answered seriously.

Xia, sitting opposite, narrowed his eyes speechlessly. "I can tell."

Thor smiled. "You don't need to know exactly what it is. Just know that if you're in a critical situation and have no other way to save yourself, this thing can cause you and your enemy to suffer great damage at the same time."

Char stared wide-eyed, speechless. "Then why did you lend it to me? To commit suicide? To avoid being controlled by Beth and becoming her slave?"

"It's a slow suicide," Saul said calmly. "If you win, you can come back to me before you die, and I can save you. If you lose, at least you can avenge yourself."

Char looked conflicted, but still accepted the encased tooth.

Thor then used a secret language technique to tell Char how to use the teeth.

Char stared at Thor, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

Thor patted Char on the back, "Alright..."

The house began to tremble again.

Kate the orange cat immediately arched her back, then straightened up after realizing what was happening. "Those tree roots are back again."

Just as Char was about to transform into a full moon again, Thor stopped him, saying, "Never mind us, just go where you need to go. Beth is recovering faster and faster, you don't have much time left."

"Huh?" The orange cat was taken aback, and asked first, "Then what do we do?"

"Fight if you can win, run if you can't," Thor said nonchalantly.

"Huh?" Kate's cat-like eyes widened.

Xia Ya, however, was decisive. "Alright, then take care of yourselves."

His figure vanished instantly, completely unconcerned about who would remove the contamination from Thor and the orange cat if they died from the tree roots' attack.

They seemed to suddenly have a lot more trust in Thor.

After Char left, this already unstable space was immediately invaded by countless thick tree roots and branches.

These tree roots and branches seemed to have their own consciousness, and immediately attacked Thor and the orange cat as soon as they broke through the room.

Kate the orange cat nervously prepared to find an opening to fight, but before she could act, Thor grabbed her by the scruff of her neck and lifted her up.

Kate: "?"

"What are you doing? Put me down!"

Saul calmly replied, "The deal is done. There's no need for us to stay here any longer."

Kate was even more confused. Looking at the sharp branches that were about to touch her, she was about to cast a spell when Thor pulled her away, interrupting her.

"Hello!!!"

However, the next second, Kate found that the whole world had suddenly stopped.

Damaged houses, flying rocks, roaring tree roots, sharp thorns...

Everything remained quietly in place.

Only the hand behind me was still lifting me up and making me spin in the air.

"What happened?"

Then he heard Thor's voice.

"If you want to leave here, you need to see this place clearly." Thor looked around at the world that had suddenly frozen due to his mental suppression. "Like the old manor, if you can't see the path ahead, you won't find the exit."

He carried the orange cat and flew into the air. "Kate, actually, this city... is upside down."

Without giving Kate time to understand, Saul closed his eyes.

The moment he closed his eyes, Kate suddenly felt dizzy.

Once he adjusted to the dizziness, he suddenly realized that the world had turned upside down.

Gravity came from above, but he did not fall to the ground.

"What's keeping me from falling?"

Kate looked down and was startled by what she saw.

The reason he didn't fall to the top of his head was that there were many fine roots under his feet that wrapped around his limbs and torso!

And these roots, with their extremely fine tips, are burrowing into his body through the pores of his skin!

"Oh my god!" Kate immediately struggled, trying to break free from the roots that were entangled in her.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't tear off the roots.

Just as he was about to try to light it, he heard Thor's calm voice again.

"Don't be afraid."

Thor opened his eyes and saw the roots on his body, but he didn't care at all. He looked around.

The house Char built collapsed with a roar, falling towards the sky. Amidst the swirling dust, many tall, dark figures could be vaguely seen standing all around.

In the distance, there were many square shadows that looked like tall buildings. Closer up, there were also several thin, dark shadows that resembled streetlights.

It was as if the nighttime city they had just left had come looking for them.

Thor waved his hand, the wind swept away the dust, and the surrounding scenery became clear.

"Oh my God!" Kate sighed helplessly beside her. "Are we always going to be in this kind of place?"

"Yes." Thor was also somewhat shocked. "So this is how Beth's sacrifice was done."

What are those towering buildings around them?

Those were extremely thick, straight tree branches reaching towards the sky.

To Thor, it looked like a tall building.

These branches are covered with hard nodules that look like tumors.

But in the middle of the hardened nodules, there were human heads growing out.

Upon closer inspection, it turns out that there isn't actually a human head growing on it, but rather a person encased in the fruit of the tree, with only the head sticking out and drooping helplessly on top.

Saul suspected that the shadows they saw in the night and the pedestrians they saw in the daytime were the souls of these people.

Foolish, mechanical.

It is a doll completely controlled by the upside-down tree.

Life, death, and annihilation can be easily controlled by others through their consciousness.

Unlike the lucid Char, these trapped people are probably still living in that busy city full of false hope.

Until death, and then forgotten.

The roots on Thor and Kate grew more and more numerous, penetrating deeper and deeper into their skin.

"What should we do? Will we end up like those people, trapped here forever?" Kate's voice trembled.

"Meow." He couldn't help but meow again.

"Now that we've seen the road clearly, we can find the way back."

As soon as Thor finished speaking, his skin began to peel away, revealing the black bones underneath.

As the skin disappeared, the roots that had been wrapped around him suddenly lost their footing.

Just as the roots were trying to continue wrapping around Thor's bones, several gray tentacles stretched out, twisted around the roots, and snapped them off with a gentle twist.

Black smoke billowed from the roots.

That is pollution from an upside-down tree.

When Thor was still a first-tier wizard, he dared not entangle with the roots because of this contamination, but now...

The black, viscous liquid was expelled by the suckers on the tentacles, spraying directly onto the black mist and then onto the nearby roots.

These black liquids are like piranhas suddenly thrown into water. As soon as they come into contact with the black smoke and roots, they begin to corrode frantically and spread rapidly, completely clearing out the nearby roots.

Kate, being carried by Thor, naturally got stained with the black liquid as well.

Seeing the corroded roots, it thought it would end up in the same situation and meowed in fear.

After calling out for a while, he realized that the black liquid on his body had only corroded his roots, while he himself was completely unharmed.

The surrounding branches and roots instinctively feared the black liquid released by Thor, and curled up and retreated.

The roots receded, revealing a point of light not far from Thor's feet.

"There! There!" Kate immediately realized that was the exit from the upside-down tree. "It's been underground all along!"

Thor looked up at the sky one last time.

There was a black sea of ​​fire, and countless figures were struggling in the flames.

Then, he regained his appearance and, with Kate in tow, flew toward the light.

Passing through the light spots is like traveling to another world.

With a flash of light, Thor and Kate were back on the bare, but freshly cut, tree stump.
