Diary of the Death Wizard

Borderlands has no concept of a country.

Not even large agglomerations.

The denser the population, the easier it is for large-scale chaos to erupt.

The most power structure here is a wizard or apprentice whose high-ranking ruler is lower than him.

Some forces will also raise a group of ordinary people to do the simplest and inefficient chores.

Those with strong strength and good resources will also drive some golems, spirit bodies, and monsters with low intelligence.

At the same time, the leaders of these places usually pledge allegiance to higher-ranking wizards in name, and usually donate some resources and complete some orders in exchange for limited resources and shelter in times of crisis.

Of course, there are also those who claim to be stronger and do not surrender to anyone.

They are generally relatively powerful lone walkers, relying on themselves to struggle to survive in the land of no man and seek opportunities for promotion.

Such a first-order wizard named Dodge lived on the island in the middle of the Rhine Lake.

First-order wizards are not very powerful in Borderlands.

But the rules of Borderlands are chaotic. If a Tier 1 wizard can fully adapt to the power of local rules, he may be stronger than a Tier 2 wizard here.

On this day, Sol was wearing a gray cloak that had been dyed gray by the wind and sand, standing on a small hillside and looking ahead.

In the distance, a relatively wide lake can be vaguely seen, but most of it is shrouded in thick gray mist.

Marsh, the coachman without a car, followed him with a huge suitcase on his back.

Because of the loss of means of transportation and the difficulty of crossing the road in the land of no man, they walked for two months from the old witch's mouse hole to their destination - Lake Rhine.

The Rhine Lake is also called the Lake of Dead Souls here. It is said to be the only large lake in the land of no man. There is an island in the center of the lake, which is rich in resources, but because of the special rules around here, there is only one who majors in dark attributes. High-level wizards settled down.

Sol communicated with several consciousnesses in the diary in his mind.

Agu: [This wizard is very powerful, he has a high status here, and his strength can also be greatly increased. If so, would he be willing to give up this place to the master? 】

An: [If you don't agree, just kill him. 】

Saul shook his head, If possible, I would prefer to use knowledge and resources to solve problems.

Sol does not reject killing, but he is unwilling to regard killing as the preferred way to solve the problem.

Although it should be difficult to convince this Dodge wizard, Thor feels that he has strong capital in the field of dark attributes, especially soul, and may be able to pay the price of the other party's interest.

But before entering the island in the heart of the Rhine Lake, Sol still needs to wait for a piece of news.

After a while, a three-headed figure wearing a pocket cloak flew out of the mist and landed in front of him.

She was surrounded by so much cloud that she looked like a cloud.

Lake Rhine has been shrouded in dense fog all year round, and it is very hidden to use this cloud to move.

Check it out, you're lucky, he didn't open the closed magic circle.

This person who looks like the size of a two-year-old child is the old hag.

After two months of growth, the old witch has turned from a deformed baby into a little girl. The body is no longer so deformed.

It's just that her face is still the face of an old witch, and her mouth can still grin to the root of her ears.

Thor nodded, and gathered his cloak, Then let's go visit this wizard Dodge.

The old witch curled her lips, When you get enough souls, remember to suck away the remaining black tide on my body as soon as possible. I dare not meditate on this thing on me!

The old witch was also helpless.

These days, whenever she meditates, she hears water drops. The sound of water droplets became louder and denser, and sometimes she felt like she was about to turn into water droplets when she listened to it.

Sol didn't speak, he walked slowly to the Rhine Lake, feeling the cool air by the lake.

The temperature here is very low, and the closer to the lake, the lower the temperature.

Sol squatted down, and a corner of his robe fell into the shallow water, and a layer of hoarfrost immediately formed.

He picked up the corner of his clothes and shook it, letting the thin ice fall off.

At this time, he suddenly saw something in his peripheral vision, and looking forward, he saw ripples in the dark lake water. After the ripples, some vague white shadows appeared under the water.

Those white shadows were slowly approaching the water surface, and their appearance gradually became clear.

It was a confused face with wide-eyed eyes, only the whites of the eyes, no pupils.

There are not only people here, but also faces of other races.

Some are humanoid, while others are more like beasts.

They looked at Sol across the water, just as Sol looked at them across the water.

Herman: [A lot of people! 】

Saul stood up slowly.

The line of sight zooms out a little bit, penetrates the fog, and sees a wider world.

Above is a gray sky, below is a bottomless lake.

Under the surface of the lake, as far as the eye can see, there are numb faces.

They are separated by a lake from Sol, and it seems to be separated by a world.

Suddenly, a wave of water came from the center of the lake.

After the ripples, all the faces disappeared, and everything was like an illusion.

Today is not the day for Rhine Lake's foreign trade. However, I will not let my friends who came from afar return empty-handed.

A figure broke through the fog and appeared in front of Thor.

The person who came was a middle-aged man with gray sideburns and beard. He looked kindly, not like a wizard, but like a simple scholar.

With his hands behind his back, he stood on a huge pure white feather, floating slowly, with steady fluctuations of magic power exuding from his body.

Is a first-order wizard.

Is your Excellency the wizard Dodge? Saul bowed slightly and nodded.

The man smiled, picked up the monocle attached to the collar and looked at Sol, a little surprised, It turned out to be a completely unfamiliar new face, and the skeleton looks very fresh. You are not yet eighteen years old, are you?

Although the wizard looked kind, he completely ignored Thor's greeting and started a new question on his own.

It's not as easy to get along with as he looks on the surface.

Sol blinked his eyes, understood in his heart, and didn't care about it, Yes, my name is Sol, and I'm just sixteen. I take the liberty to visit you and want to make a deal with you.

Saul acquiesced that the other party was Dodge Wizard.

Everyone who comes here wants to make a deal with me. Dodge didn't deny it, I like to make deals with everyone. But many people can't pay enough. I have to send them some small gifts regrettably, and then feel helpless kindly ask them to leave.

Saul smiled, That's great, I like trading too.

He raised his right hand, palm up.

A few seconds later, a subcutaneous bulge moved from the cuff's wrist to the palm.

Then the skin split open, and a transparent irregular stone with traces of bright red blood squeezed out of his palm.

The expression on Dodge's face froze instantly, his gaze was fixed on the transparent stone in Sol's hand through the monocle, and after three breaths, he slowly said: Aphanitic.

Sol nodded. He ignored the same scorching gaze from the old witch beside him and Penny's yelling crazily.

Don't, don't, brother Saul, don't give cryptocrystals to others!

Seeing that Sol was indifferent, the Nightmare Butterfly, who had been hiding in the pages of the diary since entering the Borderlands, finally couldn't bear it, got out, and stood in front of Sol, trying to make him take back the cryptocrystal.

jingle--

Suddenly, a crisp sound rang in everyone's ears.

Penny flew back to the diary with a whoosh.

Oh, what's the sound, it's so ear-piercing!

The Nightmare Butterfly hid back into the diary immediately, trembling, and even Sol could feel its uneasiness.

Sol was puzzled and looked towards the source of the sound.

Dodge on the opposite side also took out a... Mengling from his cuff in a strange way.

Strange, why did it ring by itself?
