Diary of the Death Wizard

Calgary is a big city that has been established for less than a hundred years, but both its infrastructure and population density have far surpassed the current capital of the Principality of Kema.

And there are so many novel things that have never been heard of there, even Captain Harry's airship is very common there.

However, it is very difficult to settle there, you have to go through a series of audits, and you have to pay a lot of money, even wizard apprentices are no exception.

Baidong Academy is only open to official wizards and above for free.

"What if it's just a short stay?" Saul asked.

"Then you only need to pay this amount. But you need to be reviewed regularly." Pound pointed a number to Sowerby.

Sol immediately gave up on the idea of ​​going to Calgary next stop.

During the conversation, the city wall of Blue Water Bay was already in sight, but Sol hadn't seen "Blue Water" yet, nor had Black Water.

"Isn't Blue Water Bay facing the sea?"

"It used to be, but after the war a hundred years ago, the urban area of ​​Blue Water Bay was moved away from the sea. The tide of souls has become more frequent these years, and even the villages living near the water bay had to move away."

Pound opened the wide car window and pointed the direction to Sol, "If you want to go to the beach, just follow that road and go south."

Listening to Pound's introduction, Sol slowly frowned, "Since the seaside has long been uninhabited, why are there still ships docking at the pier there?"

Pound showed bitterness, "Because it's cheap, my lord. However, in the past two years, fewer and fewer ships are willing to dock in Blue Water Bay, and life has become more and more difficult."

Sol swept across Pound's ten fingers, "Difficult?"

"Haha," Pound twitched the corner of his mouth in embarrassment, "I don't do business in this area, I just occasionally visit my wife and children who live here."

Sol naturally didn't care about Pound's private life, he kept Pound mainly because he wanted to know about Soul Tide.

"How much do you know about soul tides?"

"A lot, my lord."

Pound's eyes lit up, he knew that his chance to perform had come!

...

Sol did not enter the urban area of ​​Blue Water Bay in the end. He asked Pound for a horse, and turned silently on the way to the bay halfway.

Although the wealthy businessman Pound regretted not being able to invite Sol to his home, he was more relieved that Sol had left.

He ordered his subordinates to hurry up and wanted to go home as soon as possible, but as soon as the carriage picked up speed, he saw a group of nobles waiting outside the entrance of the city gate.

"Master!" Outside the car window, an older attendant trembled and said, "Viscount Alaf, Mrs. Shetterly, Mr. Odo, please go and sit down."

Pound was stunned for a moment, then let out a long breath.

On the other side, when Sol rushed to the beach, the sky was already gray.

The thick clouds came into view almost instantly. The sky is still clear on the shore, but the sea is covered with dark clouds.

It's like a sharp blade that divides the sea and land into two worlds, with a clear distinction.

Only the occasional white-foamed waves crossed the line. They are like palms struggling to survive, trying hard to climb to the shore, but finally retreated in despair because of the indifference of the beach.

All that just now is not entirely a metaphor. Sol squinted his eyes and saw that between the ebb and flow of the tide, there would occasionally be pairs of pale arms, with knuckles clawing ferociously towards the shore, and were soon scattered by the waves.

"There is indeed a problem with the sea water here."

The sea in the previous life was refreshing to watch, but the sea in front of him always gives people a faint feeling of heart palpitations.

Just like you are not looking at the sea from the shore, but a drowning person, who will sink to the bottom of the sea forever at any time.

The farthest place where the sea and the sky meet is also distorted, the pale gray and the deep dark blue gradually merge together, but devour each other.

The skyline is not a straight line but a distorted silhouette.

After only watching for a while, Sol felt a little restless in his mental body. He lowered his head, no longer looking at the end of the sky, and only focused on his eyes.

"No wonder ordinary people would rather spend huge sums of money to remove a city. If you really live by the sea every day, looking at such a scene, 9 out of 10 will go crazy."

At this time, he was standing on a cliff some distance away from the sea, and was about to fly to the bottom of the cliff to observe the sea at a close distance, when he heard other sounds mixed with the waves.

It was the sound of shoe soles rubbing against sand and gravel shells, and the sound of walking against the waves.

Sol wanted to look around, but at the bottom of the cliff, on a flat sandy ground, he saw a dozen people.

There are men and women, old and young in this group. Each of them has a thick hemp rope tied around their waist, and the hemp rope is tied to a larger stone on the shore at a distance.

Their eyes were covered with black scarves, and their feet stepped on the wet sand and sometimes knee-deep sea water.

They would stop after a step or two, dipping their hands in the water or groping in the sand.

They looked tense every time they bent down, their knees slightly bent and taut, ready to exert force at any time. It's as if instead of bending over, they're about to jump.

"These people...are they chasing the sea?"

Sol used the flying technique to jump off the cliff soundlessly, and then landed a hundred meters away from those people.

He took a few steps towards the sea, looked down at the place where the beach was plowed by the waves, and found nothing.

"There are very few shells and seaweeds here. But there are no traces of people walking. It means that they were not dug up by people who drove the sea. It's that this inaccessible place lacks animals and plants."

At this time, Xiaozao suddenly voluntarily drilled out from the back of Sol's neck, looking left and right like a nimble little snake.

"What did you find again?"

Xiaozao immediately turned her head to the direction of the waves.

"Is it the breath of death?" Sol thought, and took two steps towards the sea.

Suddenly he heard a terrified cry from the crowd.

He immediately turned his head to look, and found that one of the men straightened up suddenly, then turned his head and ran towards the rope without saying a word.

He ran until he was out of reach of the waves. After only a few steps, I was so tired that I bent over and gasped for breath.

Obviously terrified.

Although Sol turned his head to look over after the other party yelled, his sensitive reaction and excellent eyes allowed him to see clearly what frightened the man.

It was a pair of pale hands hidden in the same pale waves.

Those hands turned into substance in an instant, and instantly grasped the wrist of the man who was groping in the sea water.

That's why the man fled ashore in terror.

After the man ran away, everyone else stopped and straightened up. They turned their heads covered in black scarves in the direction of the man, and they were also very nervous. But after a few breaths, no one followed the man ashore.

They seem to be hesitating, hesitating, and reluctant.

After another minute of silence, the first man continued to bend over and fumble for something in the sand, then the second, the third...

Everyone's face is numb, even children.

And the man who was scared away, after resting on the shore with his knees on the shore for a while, stretched the rope again, and after confirming that the rope was tied firmly to the stone, he walked into the sea again.

"There should be something in the sea that can be sold for money." Sol simply walked over to those people, ready to ask them directly.

At this time, the accident happened again.

A boy suddenly slipped and fell into the water. He struggled to stand up, but somehow he crawled two steps into the deep water.

After being choked by the waves, he hurriedly pulled the rope around his waist, trying to determine the direction of the shore.

But when he straightened the rope and climbed two more steps along the direction of the rope, he found that the water was deeper.

There was a terrified expression on the part of his face that was not covered by the black scarf, and he obviously didn't know why it happened.
