Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 799 Lantern

Corey could stop the probing of a third-tier wizard who was also a member of the Stargate Council, but she alone could not stop the Tribunal's Pegasus chariot.

Even the coachman was only a second-tier wizard.

Unless the wizard Ole, who just left, returns and joins her side, leaving Thor behind.

But Corey knew that was impossible.

Although she told Thor that Wizard Orle was unhappy with him because his student had died in the No Man's Land, the root of the conflict was actually a clash of ideas between the Glowing Family and the Stargate Councilor.

They certainly wouldn't try to keep Thor, who was already destined to belong to the Radiance faction.

Moreover, the Tribunal's stance is that they are inviting people rather than arresting them, making it even less likely that the other side will clash over Thor and the Pegasus carriage.

Seeing the worry in Corey's eyes, Thor comforted her instead, "Don't worry, I promised to go to the Tribunal to see that big shot anyway. I just didn't expect them to be waiting here."

Thor calculated the time. "There are still two weeks until the agreed time. It's a bit late to set off now."

Perhaps the tribunal decided to come and pick him up because Saul had not shown up for a long time.

As for how they knew Thor would be here... perhaps, like the chieftain of the Radiant Ones, they each had their own methods of finding out.

As they were talking, the Pegasus carriage, which was very discreet except for the horses, stopped in front of Thor and Corey.

Even without flapping its wings significantly, the carriage can remain steadily suspended in the air.

The wizard driving the carriage was completely shrouded in a black cloak, and did not reveal his face even when he came to Thor.

The wizard coachman's voice was hoarse. "Lord Thor, please get in the carriage. I will take you to the Palace of Eternal Night."

Thor hadn't expected his destination to be the Eternal Night Empire. "Weren't we going to the Tribunal?"

"The court will be waiting for you there."

Thor turned to Corey and said, "I promised to go to the Tribunal, and I've kept my promise. Please convey my apologies to Chief Norton for me; I'll visit him again when I have the chance."

Corey said nothing and could only watch quietly as Saul boarded the carriage to the Tribunal.

The interior of the court carriage was as unassuming as its exterior, even bordering on rudimentary.

The carriage contained only basic wooden seats, and not even cushions.

The carriage didn't even have a single window, but there was a lantern on the last seat.

The entire lantern stand was made of brass, and a thin layer of dust had settled on the glass walls inside. The handle at the top of the lantern was also polished to a shine.

It looks like a lamp that has been used for a long time.

The interior lighting was stable; even inside the bumpy carriage, the lamps did not flicker violently but instead emitted a soft glow, making the dark-toned carriage look warm and inviting.

Thor chose to sit in the seat on the right, his gaze involuntarily falling on the lantern behind him.

He thought to himself, "The highest-ranking carriage of the Tribunal contains no wizarding tools, uses no magic or fluorite for lighting, yet it has chosen such an ordinary lantern. Could there be some mechanism on it that I can't see?"

Thor had already scanned the entire carriage with his mental power, and apart from the Pegasus in front and the second-tier wizard coachman, there was no magical feedback anywhere else.

Including the lantern in front of us.

But Thor couldn't believe that this Pegasus carriage was really that ordinary.

At that moment, Kate, who had been carelessly placed on the ground by Thor, struggled out of her cloak.

"I...I need water," Kate gasped for breath. "My skin is starting to crack."

Fortunately, the carriage was spacious enough that Thor took out a large wooden barrel from the storage container, which was just the right size to fit Kate's whole fish inside.

He then used a level 0 water-based spell to fill the bucket with water, and only then did he see Kate stick her head out, lean against the edge of the bucket, and catch her breath.

"How are you adapting to your new body?" Thor sealed off the space inside the carriage, so the wizards outside couldn't hear them.

"It's not good at all," Kate said dejectedly. "Lord Thor, you'd better make me a new vessel as soon as possible. This body has no legs, and the internal organs are very strange. I think if I stay here any longer, I might go crazy."

Thor raised his hand and placed it on Kate's head. He didn't mean to pat her head, but to infuse magic into Kate's new body.

"There is indeed a lot of pollution in this body. I originally planned to go to Radiant Base to clean up the pollution for you, but I didn't expect to be running around like this again."

He withdrew his hand, revealing some impurities in his palm that resembled a mixture of mud and algae.

Saul poured the impurities into a test tube, sealed it, and put it back into the storage container.

"Let me give you a quick clean-up now, and you can try to get used to this body."

Kate looked up in surprise. "Aren't you going to give me a different container?"

Thor chuckled and leaned back in his seat. "So all we've been testing is how your soul reacted while you were inside the cat. Now we have a perfect opportunity to see how you are inside the mermaid. Mermaids, what rare experimental subjects."

Kate's face twitched.

However, he was also aware of how rare mermaids were, and if he were in their shoes, he would definitely want to study their bodies as well.

Finally, he could only sigh, "Well, well then, please watch over my soul and don't let me really go mad."

After that, Kate stopped talking and quietly soaked in the bath, repairing her skin that had cracked from the high-speed flight.

Inside the enclosed carriage, Thor couldn't see outside, nor did he know where the carriage had flown to.

After about an hour, the bumpy vehicle began to descend, followed by slight vibrations, and then came to a complete stop.

The carriage door was opened from the outside, and sunlight immediately streamed into the carriage, turning the originally warm yellow interior into a bright white.

However, the coachman at the door did not let Saul get out of the carriage.

"Lord Thor, we are about to enter the ultra-long-distance teleportation array connecting the continent of Iskeper to the continent of Skate. You don't need to worry about safety, but you cannot use magic or mental energy during this time."

Thor had heard of long-distance teleportation arrays.

but……

Why go to Skye?

The continent of Skate is located in the northwest of the world's existing continents, with Iskeper in the middle, while Neflet is in the east and closer to the Southern Hemisphere.

Thor's journey to Neflett normally involves passing through Iskeppert, but after finally making it there, he's about to be taken back to Skye by the Tribunal.

"Aren't we going to the Palace of Eternal Night?"

"Go. It'll just be faster this way." Before Thor could ask, the coachman lowered his voice and continued, "Iskeper and Neflet don't have a direct long-distance teleportation array."

Has the conflict between the Stargate Council and the Tribunal become this deep?

The driver didn't give Saul time to think and closed the door immediately.

His original task was to take Thor to Neflet; all Thor had to do was obediently follow him.

Anyway... even if he wanted to run, he couldn't run anymore.

As Thor sat in the carriage, he suddenly felt a loss of spatial awareness.

Because he had already traveled to the chaotic region several times, this intercontinental teleportation array did not make him lose his composure.

At the same time, Thor kept his magic firmly under control, preventing it from showing.

But at that moment, his extremely sharp mental senses suddenly turned to the lantern inside the carriage.

Even as the lantern moved through space, it continued to emit a steady light.

It's as if it's not in the carriage, but in a separate space, completely unaffected by the ultra-long-distance transmission!

Thor's pupils suddenly contracted. Amidst the chaotic spatial perception and slight dizziness, a name suddenly popped into his mind.

Flim!
