The Truth of Magic

Chapter 10

Zhao Xu couldn't describe what was going through his mind when he walked through the portal.

According to his estimation after listening to it, the players who got two badges, after coming to the headquarters of the Mage Association in Mystra, should directly get the opportunity to work as a dossier scholar, and continue on this road.

In fact, Zhao Xu was deeply shocked when the black-robed sorcerer said the name file scholar.

Prior to this, he never expected that this basic profession, which is no less than that of mage and priest, would be accessible to players on Earth on the first day.

Arthur's game is a popular game to survive on Earth.

In an environment where traffic is more valuable, many live broadcast players are not stingy with revealing and publishing game content.

These contents also rely on the Internet, without restrictions on dissemination, so that laymen like Zhao Xu can understand.

The biggest difference between basic occupations and advanced occupations is that the caster levels of advanced occupations can be superimposed, but basic occupations cannot.

Listening to the black-robed mage's words, there is no doubt that his mage's path will go on forever.

The problem is, on the path of archivist, he has to work as a level 1 priest first, and then become a repeated magic spellcaster archivist?

Being a level 1 priest also means that he will always be one level slower than others on the path of archivist who is majoring in it.

Level 1 mages can learn level 1 spells, and level 3 mages can learn level 2 spells.

By analogy, a level 5 mage can learn level 3 spells, which is the case for most spellcasting professions.

Other people's 9th-level priest casts the 5th-level divine spell resurrection, and he can only play the mud of the 4th-level spell.

When Zhao Xu appeared in Floating Void City after a round of time, he had regained his composure.

He roughly understood something.

The word of the Goddess' will is very subtle.

It is the will of the goddess to make him a file scholar.

It is also the will of the goddess that he must work as a level 1 priest part-time.

Zhao Xu, who understood this, switched the belief tendency of the character panel directly to Sisylvina, the goddess of magic, in an instant.

He was 90% sure that the Goddess was watching him from the moment he created his character to the job screening.

Those statues were indeed as he had vaguely guessed at the time, they all had divine power attached to them.

The gods use the Temple of Creation as their battleground, and they have already begun planning and selecting their believers here.

Zhao Xu was selected, perhaps because of his double elite qualifications.

Or because of deeper reasons.

Anyway, the goddess needs him to become a priest, so it must be, and she needs to strengthen her relationship with him.

The priests in Arthur's world, because of the true god, can be said to be practitioners of the idea of ​​gods. It is not necessarily true that a person says how pious he is.

But if a man is the priest of that god, his piety cannot be questioned.

Because their priest level is the testimony given by the gods.

Priests can be directly given a professional level by the gods.

Therefore, the church and shrine in Asheri are also deeply trusted by believers, and their actions are exactly the same, which is like a real ideal kingdom of heaven.

Faced with this situation, Zhao Xu naturally immediately changed his belief to a goddess.

Faith is a serious matter.

But the gods are still very tolerant towards shallow believers, only the selection of priests will be very strict.

Every time the level of the priest is raised, the approval of the gods is required.

Priests cast aside by the gods they believe in will lose most of their abilities, including divine spells.

At that time, only evil gods and abyss hell would accept these blasphemers. For them, the soul of a priest who rebelled against the gods is a supreme delicacy.

But there are still some exceptions to everything, otherwise the pastors should always be faithful, and God is still not omnipotent.

They can twist the melon to make it sweet, but they can't turn the sweetness of the melon into a natural thing.

Zhao Xu speculated that if he really didn't believe in the goddess so much that he would die, the goddess would naturally not let him become a senior priest.

However, it is still allowed to only give a level 1 priest level, as a candidate to be favored.

This is also the reason why he boldly decided to believe in it.

Otherwise, just let yourself be a file scholar, why bother with the second path and become a level 1 priest.

The goddess needs her level 1 priest as an anchor, so why don't she need the favor of the goddess, so that she can take the lead in the future world of great controversy.

As for him not being a devout believer to be a priest, it depends on whether the goddess will give him face.

It was really embarrassing, so he directly changed to the faction's faith pastor.

At least four years later, the entire north will start to be in turmoil, and the abyss and hell will invade again. At that time, Zhao Xu didn't have a tenth rank, so he couldn't say that he could keep his family safe.

It was during that turmoil in the previous life that Zhao Xu was summoned to leave.

As a result, his hometown was destroyed by the passing black dragon.

In that great turmoil, countless people died in the entire Northland.

Many earthlings who traveled to the past and were only level 1 civilians were obliterated by the turmoil.

It was also at that time that the entire earth-traveling group desperately entered the basic adventure profession.

The enthusiasm for non-adventurous basic occupations such as mentors, noble families, and experts has dropped to freezing point.

When Zhao Xu finished thinking about this, his teleportation had just finished.

He walked out slowly, and saw a hall that was more than ten times larger than before.

At the same time, the hall is densely covered with many identical portals, like a forest of steles.

On one side of the entire hall, there is a whole row of spell guards, who are guarding the order of the entire hall.

From time to time, people come out of the portal.

On the wall facing these portals, a group of workers built a table and were busy on it.

Before Zhao Xu could ask a question, a waiter came up to greet her. She was quite handsome, which made Zhao Xu reawaken the aesthetics that Arthur had cultivated for eight or nine years.

"Dear mage, please come here with me to re-register." As she spoke, she stood aside, waiting for Zhao Xu's departure.

Basically, every door is served by a guiding maid like her.

Thinking about it this way, I'm afraid that the black-robed mage I took just now really came here specially for him. Could it be that he wanted to see what he looks like?

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but feel a chill.

The maid in front was still waiting carefully, without feeling annoyed at all, and Zhao Xu couldn't make people wait, so he quickly followed.

He asked as he walked, "Those senior mages can't come in through this door, can they?"

Zhao Xu knew that it was safest to walk in.

Whether it's for the mages or for the defense of this floating city.

These floating cities that Mystra paid a huge price to rise, in addition to serving as satellite cities of the main city, I am afraid that they also exist as the last kindling.

Teleportation spells are out of reach for others.

But in high-level combat, it's impossible to go unnoticed.

Zhao Xu had seen it in a battle. A group of high-level adventurers descended from the sky through teleportation spells.

Zhao Xu knew that this floating city was extremely huge, but the projection did not completely cover the entire Mystra. It can only be said that these floating cities were too high, too high for flying creatures to reach.

Naturally, the only way to break through is teleportation.

"These cities are all set up with mazes. Only those who are recognized can use the teleportation technique to enter." The maid's voice was not high, and it was just within the range that Zhao Xu could hear without disturbing others.

Zhao Xu was taken aback. He hadn't heard much about this in his previous life.

There are too few players born in Mystra, and this group is completely the top of the pyramid.

He suddenly realized what the mark mentioned in the post explaining the advancement of spell guards meant, and he also said that something that didn't provide any ability and was just a proof was of great use.

It turns out that the professional ability of an advanced profession is actually used to pass through the fan lock of the floating city.

As far as Zhao Xu knew, professional ability was arguably the hardest thing to counterfeit.

In this way, it is much more stable than a magic imprint, which can be transmitted to the floating city without restraint.

Because every spell guard is a carefully selected person, especially, the betrayer will lose his professional ability.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu became serious.

Sure enough, Arthur's cities that can be passed down for thousands of years have their own backgrounds.

Finally, Zhao Xu finally walked to the front table.

After the other party briefly confirmed his recommendation letter and the badge on it, he handed him a bunch of keys, and asked the maid to guide him to his future dormitory before turning around to entertain others.

After Zhao Xu listened, the audience followed the maid to the map in a daze.

He circled around the castle the whole time, and arrived at the dormitory without even breathing the outside air.

The maid didn't say anything, so she went back to receive the next one, and Zhao Xu was even more confused.

In his previous life, he was trained as a fighter, and the other party directly pulled him to the training ground, and a group of muscular men came up to practice, from correcting their fighting posture to how to dodge and deal with the attack.

Immediately afterwards, even after selecting the specialty, start practicing the specialty until it is successfully activated.

One ring after another, it is very compact, and some players can complete the training before going to bed tonight and go on an adventure in the wild alone.

Unlike Zhao Xu, who didn't say anything about the course, he was sent to the dormitory first.

He doesn't sleep with Arthur, why do he need a dormitory?

Shaking his head, Zhao Xu still pushed open the door of his dormitory and stepped in.

Then he stopped.
