Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 994 I'm testing you

In the end, the half-elf was placed in the underground base.

Now that the Stargate Council is basically on Thor's side, there's no need to worry about any conflicts of interest when using their territory.

Moreover, the underground base is fully equipped, and the personnel are familiar with the queen insect. It is a ready-made research site, and it would be a waste not to use it.

Because of his half-elf status, Byron will most likely reside permanently in the underground base from now on, so the house he originally rented will belong to Thor.

Thor teleported away from the underground base again and appeared next to Gorza.

At this moment, Gorsa was leaning back on his large pink sofa, listening to a report from several second-tier wizards temporarily selected by the Stargazing Tower.

Because he was facing Gorsa, the wizards who were reporting immediately saw him when Thor suddenly appeared to Gorsa's right side.

"Ah, Wizard Thor, you..."

They were only halfway through their greetings when they suddenly realized that Thor's aura was completely different from before. He stood next to Gorza, and the mental pressure emanating from both of them was equally powerful.

The wizards below immediately fell silent.

Gorsa turned to look at Thor. "Your teleportation ability is quite interesting."

The Stargazing Tower itself is protected by magical arrays. It also has countermeasures against spatial magic. The council chamber, where Gorsa is currently located, has been further reinforced with several isolation arrays.

Otherwise, if the enemy were to teleport in, they could easily break into their base and cause massive damage.

However, Thor still managed to enter with a simple teleportation, without even alerting the Stargazing Tower's defense system.

"I've seen your teleportation ability before, but it seems to be even stronger after your advancement. I didn't even detect any spatial fluctuations."

Thor nodded. "High mobility, but also many limitations."

Gorsa didn't ask what the limitations were. "Who isn't? A fourth-tier wizard has only developed themselves to the limit, but their control over the outside world is still limited."

He waved to the wizards below, instantly teleporting them away.

This was meant to demonstrate his teleportation ability to Thor, who had just become a fourth-tier wizard.

Thor also kept an eye on Gorza's magical and mental energy changes. He noticed that when Gorza used teleportation magic on others, the commotion was greater, allowing Thor to observe even more.

"Was the transfer done using shadows?"

Thor discovered that these people were first transferred into their own shadows, and then disappeared along with their shadows.

If the mentor's teleportation is also limited, then it is likely that there must be a shadow, and that the shadow must have been controlled by him.

This explains why Gorza teleported in segments when he went to fetch Thor. Back then, he not only needed to teleport within his own controlled shadow, but the distance of his teleportation was also limited. However, as his strength increased, this distance became increasingly greater, making it easy for people to overlook the changes.

"How's the Queen doing?" Gorsa asked.

"Everything is going smoothly so far. The half-elf has suppressed the queen's consciousness, but it will take time to completely control her. I have given him a year to complete it."

"Within a year?" Gorsa's eyes widened slightly. "My estimate is about 20 years. You mean, the Eye of the Abyss will fully erupt within a few years?"

Thor sighed softly. "Yes, I have a way of knowing that the abyss may only be a few years away from its full eruption. It's just that I don't have the exact number of years yet."

Gorza was silent for a moment; the news was quite bad for him as well.

"Only a few years left? It seems we need to be more forceful."

He suddenly stood up from the sofa.

"I will bring out all the Radiant Clan members who are hiding on the side of the world, and add some high-level wizards to the ranks. I will also make use of the Soul-Stabilizing Spell Circle you left behind last time."

Gorsa raised his hand, and a huge 3D map immediately appeared before them. Thor immediately walked to the map and looked at the places marked by his mentor.

"I've looked around, and because the continent of Iskeper doesn't often confront the Black Tide head-on, its defenses against pollution are quite lax. Didn't you set up many soul-fixing magic arrays in the No Man's Land? I also plan to move them here and set them up in these coastal areas."

Thor looked at one of the spots, the very corner of the continent he had seen in his dream being sucked into the Eye of the Abyss, and pointed there, saying, "Let's add a few more Soul-Stabilizing Arrays around here."

"This is the closest point in Iskepar to the Eye of the Abyss." Gorsa immediately understood Thor's meaning. "Are you worried that this place will be attacked by the Black Tide?"

"It's also for future defense. If one day the continent of Iskeper needs to confront the Eye of the Abyss, this will be the first line of defense. It will also be the place where we lead the Red Worms to launch an attack on the Eye of the Abyss."

This is even more serious than Gorsa had originally guessed.

There's nothing we can do about it; after all, Thor has precognitive dreams.

While prophetic magic exists in the wizarding world, its accuracy and clarity are rather poor. Wizards who prefer rational analysis do not rely heavily on prophetic magic.

However, Gorsa has great faith in Thor. Currently, aside from Thor's several consciousnesses, Gorsa is probably the only one who understands Thor's unique nature best.

Gorza still possesses a fragment of Thor's soul.

"Okay, I will send more people to these locations."

Looking at Gorza's composed demeanor, even though he knew he could definitely take control of all the remaining members of the Stargate Council, the speed he moved exceeded Thor's expectations.

"Is the Stargate Council now without any problems?"

"They have already shattered their own hopes of leaving the wizarding world. Now, they naturally have no choice but to change their mindset and fight against the Black Tide."

After realizing they couldn't escape, a group of people who had been trying to run away had no choice but to fight to the death.

Gorsa's appearance was perfectly timed, and he quickly won over the hearts of the people.

"Then I'll head back to the No Man's Lands first. I'll leave things here in your care." Thor thought for a moment, then added a reminder to Gorsa, "There's a wizard named Douglas who's been working with us on the Red Worm. He appears to be a third-tier wizard, but he might not be that simple. You'll have to be careful when you encounter him."

Upon hearing the name, Gorsa's eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded, saying, "Cooperation is cooperation, but caution is still necessary, right?"

Thor nodded.

"It's best if we don't let him realize we're wary of him," Gorsa continued.

"Uh..." Thor could only nod again.

"Oh dear, the Stargate Council is really short of high-level wizards right now. So I'll give him a proper test. If he passes, he can enter the core management of the Stargate Council. What do you think?"

"What you say goes." Thor silently wiped away non-existent cold sweat.

Instructor Gorsa was using the pretext of testing people to openly guard against Douglas, and even if Douglas saw through it, as long as he was still "Third Order", he couldn't say anything.

OK.

When it comes to scheming against people, Thor has no reason to worry about his mentor, Gorza.
