As for that Miss Lucy, judging by their attitude...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yawn... Miss Lucy is naturally that little princess Lucy Golden Thunder from the Stargate Council.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air twisted lightly, and a man with a languid expression appeared on the grass in front of Old Days Manor, as if he had always been standing there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dreammaker Clark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's her?\" Pei'er lightly bit her lip, controlling her gaze not to look toward Clark, but continuing the conversation in a very natural tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ann didn't know who Lucy was and looked at Pei'er in confusion. Pei'er secretly transmitted a message telling her: \"Lucy Golden Thunder is a direct descendant of Stargate Council Chairman Alick. She's also recognized as the descendant most likely to become the Golden Thunder Family's next fourth-rank wizard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ann gasped, then exhaled halfway through: \"She seemed quite kind to Master. Maybe she'll take care of Master inside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei'er paused and stated her purpose: \"Regardless, the Storm Eye matter is very important. Let's also enter the manor now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the first to voice opposition was Firefly Lord Herbert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's no need. Three Tribunal wizards, Miss Lucy, plus four second-rank wizards. These people's strength is already powerful enough. If even they would perish in Old Days Manor, then this isn't a brewing Storm Eye but an already breached gap.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert narrowed his eyes: \"If that's the case, our entry would only make the situation worse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei'er immediately had no reason to continue entering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at the dilapidated manor dozens of meters away and sighed helplessly in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally she had wanted to enter together with the other two third-rank wizards while Saul coordinated from outside. But now, due to the sudden intrusion of the Tribunal and Stargate Council, it was instead Saul who entered Old Days Manor first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Clark was also blocked outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as they confirmed this was the Storm Eye, the three of them would definitely enter afterward to perform the sealing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the moment the sealing succeeded would be her opportunity kill Clark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei'er clasped her hands in front of her lower abdomen, looking at the manor with a calm expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clark even closed his eyes and began to doze, seeming completely unconcerned with the situation inside the manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Herbert glanced at Pei'er with slight surprise, understanding flashing in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mouth corner slightly raised, feeling like there would be another good show to watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saul had just stepped onto Old Days Manor's porch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The decayed and dilapidated wooden steps let out feeble groans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was said that after Old Days Manor's original owner was polluted and mutated, others had tried to take over this place and renovated it several times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the house and buildings still quickly fell into decay, as if an invisible force wanted to give this manor its proper sense of history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Saul stepped on the second step, suddenly a little girl pushed open the half-rotten wood and emerged from under the steps, using extremely exaggerated speed to grab Saul's calf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, I caught you! Now you're it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as the childish voice finished, the little girl dispersed like mist, making Little Algae's fierce attack bite only air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Clack clack clack!\" Little Algae looked around unwillingly, then turned back in shock to see its little master's soul had actually left his body!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saul took a step forward and discovered his body was light as a feather. When he turned back, he found himself face to face with Little Algae, whose mouth was wide open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did he understand that the little girl's meaning of \"being it\" was literal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it hide and seek? What would happen if I catch the little girl, and what if I don't?\" Saul turned back to see his own body standing on the steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, this body also had no breathing or heartbeat, as if time had been paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can this manor only be explored through soul form?\" Saul wanted to try something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although his soul was powerful and could even transform, without bodily protection, the soul was very susceptible to pollution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such a dangerous place where many wizards had obviously been polluted, acting with just a soul was like throwing a piece of meat into a wolf's den.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saul looked at the other people frozen in place: \"It's been so long without the next person entering. It seems that either the next person can't come to this place before I truly enter the manor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saul returned to his body's side and tried to enter his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, his body was now like a sealed box—every attempt to enter was blocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can't go back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saul thought for a moment, then suddenly turned and moved three meters away from his body, faced himself, then turned left and began learning from meditation diagrams, walking clockwise in circles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One step, two steps, three steps...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saul tried to focus his attention on the walking movements, not thinking about whether he could return to his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four steps, five steps, six steps...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A soft barrier appeared before Saul. He tried to advance but felt strong resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how hard Saul tried, he couldn't enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He half-closed his eyes and didn't give up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The diary flipped gently at Saul's call, not stopping on any particular page.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the diary made \"rustling\" sounds, a semi-transparent white thread separated from it, wrapped around Saul's body, and emerged from his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Saul looked up expressionlessly and saw the same semi-transparent thread emerging from his body's forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, that thread only emerged five centimeters before stopping its growth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saul slightly raised his forearm, and the fate line in his palm seemed guided, flying toward the thread at his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barrier that had just blocked Saul now broke through like a layer of window paper before the fate line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the two fate lines intertwined with each other, Saul once again felt the connection with his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, there was no obstruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had returned to his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening his eyes again, the manor before him had changed. It was no longer that decayed wood and dusty, cobweb-covered old manor, but a simple yet cold, clean manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have I come to another place?\" Saul moved his hands and feet, feeling no stiffness, then continued up the steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering, Little Algae saw Kismet standing on the corridor. It clacked its little mouth and suddenly went up to bite him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just after biting, it let go with \"pft pft pft\" sounds, looking like it had eaten something very unpleasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You've become much more aggressive recently. Are you really about to mature?\" Saul grabbed Little Algae's neck and pulled it back. \"Don't put everything in your mouth!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saul looked at Kismet, still frozen by the window, and pushed open the door to enter Old Days Manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1202,"2026-06-05T22:22:28.368Z",1,"novelbin.me","c6bc62445dd3ba1f1ae9393aa8a5d35e3a8c513f12f7793d1e19a7c4e82e6eef","diary-of-a-dead-wizard-chapter-619","diary-of-a-dead-wizard-chapter-617",1037,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdiary-of-a-dead-wizard-cover.jpg"]
