Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 948 The Problem of Succession

Just as Thor was pondering how to help his mentor Gorza, Gorza, who had been curled up and motionless, suddenly twisted his neck.

"Mentor!" Thor immediately crouched down, trying to wake him. Communicating with Gorsa would naturally be more helpful in his recovery.

However, all that could be distinguished about Gorsa was his head and torso; his limbs were stuck together and tangled together.

The other party seemed to be maintaining only the lowest level of activity, and did not respond to Thor's call.

"Could it be because he recognized me when I used my mental energy to probe his body just now?"

"Gorsa did indeed respond to your mental power. Do you have any way to awaken him?" Norton was at a loss. Although he was a fourth-tier wizard, he was really not good at healing.

Thor looked down, and a thin gray needle appeared in his palm. It was the Soul-Stabilizing Needle that Sand had given him as payment.

"I have a solution, but some preparations are needed before starting the treatment."

Edgar, who had been silent all along, looked up excitedly and then looked at Norton hopefully.

Norton seemed somewhat surprised, because in his view, a wizard corrupted to this extent was very difficult to save. If Gorsa was truly dead, he would have no choice but to entrust the Radiant Clan to Edgar. Even if Edgar wasn't confident he could lead the Radiant Clan to a stable position, there was no other option.

"Tell Edgar what you need. The Radiant Clan will fully cooperate with you. You can use any resources on the entire world side!" Norton waved his hand, granting Thor the maximum access.

Anyway, if he and Gorza both die, and Edgar can't hold the world side, then everything here will become someone else's spoils of war, so it's better to give it to Thor.

"If you can cure Gorsa, I can give you 30% of the resources in this world."

Wow, thirty percent of the resources of the world's largest wizarding family? Norton really goes all out.

This is a very sincere offer.

"These things aren't urgent." Thor didn't care about the value of the Radiance at this moment, and how many resources the Radiance had was still up to them. He didn't need to appear so eager for quick success at this time.

"My methods may not necessarily cure my mentor; I can only do my best."

Norton sighed, "I'm already very satisfied with the result."

For the next few days, Thor remained on the side of the Radiant World. He asked Edgar for some materials, then took out the sorcery array he had copied from the Soul-Stabilizing Needle, selected the milder components, and prepared to design a protective suit for his mentor, Gorsa.

According to Thor's design, this protective suit could both shield Gorza from external pollution and gently nurture his spirit and body.

As for the shape of the protective suit, Thor had already decided to make it based on Gorsar's previous appearance in the Wizard's Tower, giving him a bandaged skin suit.

However, the material of these bandages...

Edgar brought the materials to Thor, and he carried them in his hands instead of putting them into his spatial device as others were used to.

"This is the skin you requested. But why not just peel it off a living organism instead of using witchcraft to cultivate and manufacture it?"

"Human skin is of no use against the Black Tide, is it? Even a wizard's skin is no different." Thor took the artificial skin.

This box of artificial skin incorporates Gorza's once intact cells, Thor's remaining mermaid cells, and the tailbone he brought back from the Wailing Wall.

Of course, all of them underwent inactivation treatment to prevent the supervisor from being infected with other contaminants before their immunity had recovered.

Thor modified the artificial skin into the shape of bandages, then carefully separated Gorza's tangled limbs and wrapped them one by one with bandages, leaving no trace of his charred body exposed, including his eyes.

Moreover, Gorza's eyes, like his other facial features, were dissolved in his skull and could not be distinguished at all.

Once everything was ready, Thor transferred the unresponsive mentor to the prepared magic circle, then lit up all the magic crystals and infused them with magic power and a little spiritual energy.

The enormous magic circle suddenly lit up, dispelling much of the darkness within Norton Wizard Tower.

Norton and Edgar, who were watching from the sidelines, whispered among themselves.

"The magic circle used by the wizard Thor is very similar to ancient design practices," Edgar said.

"Perhaps he obtained an ancient artifact or scroll."

"There are traces of modification on it. He's just a third-tier wizard, yet he can modify such a complex magic array." Edgar didn't know that what Thor had taken out was only a part of the Soul-Stabilizing Array, otherwise he would probably be so surprised that he wouldn't be able to speak.

"So it's not without reason that Gorsa values ​​him. If you examine his growth journey closely, you'll find that this guy... seems to be favored by fate." Norton also fully acknowledged Thor's abilities and even began to consider whether he could pass the position of Chief of the Radiant Clan to Thor if Gorsa couldn't recover and Edgar couldn't shoulder the burden of the Radiant Clan.

The Radiant Clan does not rely entirely on bloodline power to maintain its existence. Many clan members also join the family through mentor-apprentice relationships.

Of course, this mentor-apprentice relationship is definitely not like the one in some wizarding organizations where mentors use apprentices as cannon fodder. Rather, it's a truly close relationship where both parties can trust each other and fight together.

Thor's performance in the Red Sea and at the Wailing Wall has completely won over the world; no wizard doubts his abilities. And in a wizarding world where the Eye of the Abyss is about to erupt, what a powerful guarantee of survival a wizard capable of curing the Black Tide's pollution would be!

Norton found it increasingly feasible, and his gaze towards Thor softened. If even the combined power of the three continents couldn't stop the Black Tide from erupting, then the various world sides would be the last bastions of this wizarding world against the Black Tide.

Thor probably wouldn't refuse such a backup plan.

Thor is unaware that Norton has taken a liking to him, and he is currently focused on saving Gorsa.

Seeing that Gorsa in the magic circle had a slight physical reaction, he quickly stopped the magic circle to let him rest, so as not to let the healing power be too strong and cause the mutation to rebound.

With this combination of treatment and rest, and alternating shifts, it took Thor more than half a month to finally gather Gorsa's scattered mental energy together.

However, the mental energy had been broken for too long and there were too many fragments, so Thor was unable to restore it in a short time.

However, Gorsa's current physical condition should be able to withstand more intense treatments.

Thor took out the Soul-Stabilizing Needle.

This item is Thor's most useful tool in fighting the mutation, and he hesitated when he saw his mentor's condition. But in the end, Thor decided to give it to his mentor, Gorza.

He gently pinched the needle between his thumb and forefinger, and the previously inconspicuous, tiny black needle suddenly flashed with light.

It moved quickly, and after the flash, it returned to normal. However, Thor knew that the Soul-Stabilizing Needle had now been activated.

Thor stepped into the magic circle, knelt down next to Gorsa, and then raised the needle to pierce Gorsa's head.

Since the spirit is concentrated in the head, it is natural to use magical tools in the nearest place.

However, just as Thor was about to insert the Soul-Stabilizing Needle, he suddenly received a faint spiritual force.

"No need... to save me."
