The Truth of Magic

Chapter 136 Forest of Lying Words (33)

Generally speaking, most of what Antinoya wanted to teach him was to give him pointers on the spot.

This time it was specially arranged for him to go to another place for class, which was somewhat unexpected.

Zhao Xu also followed the directions given by Antinoya to a mysterious classroom in the Hall of Learning.

The Hall of Knowledge was the main training place for all mage apprentices in Floating Void City. Zhao Xu had never been here because he had been trained by Antinoya alone.

Most of those apprentices are trained on the first to third floors.

And when Zhao Xu entered the eighth floor, he found that the entire corridor was empty.

Compared with the lower floors, the entire eighth floor is closed, not at all light-proof, and at the same time empty and desolate.

Only in the corner of the wall, there will be a faint candle every twenty steps.

Zhao Xu walked all the way, and there were many murals hanging on the sealed walls, but most of them were abstract, as if they were some kind of mysterious ritual symbols.

Zhao Xu knew that some paintings could easily be trapped or even controlled if he observed them carefully, so he didn't take a closer look at them.

Throughout the corridor, there was only the sound of "tattling" footsteps, and it even seemed like there was one more person.

Zhao Xu stopped abruptly several times, but the sound of his footsteps also stopped at the same time.

In the end, after walking through seven or eight classrooms cautiously, he finally found that the doors of those classrooms began to have numbers, which was not far from the classroom 101 that Antinoya had told him.

Contrary to the super-large hall of the academic forum, the classrooms in the Hall of Knowledge are smaller than Zhao Xu's university classrooms on earth, and some are even just a small conference room.

Zhao Xu walked all the way, and he found that most of the classrooms looked dilapidated, and the seats were not even straightened, just dumped on the ground, and there were even some broken mirrors piled up in the corners.

The layout of the entire eighth floor, from the floor to the ceiling murals, was painted with no bright colors at all, and it was all extremely dull and dark gray.

A deserted scene.

As a sorcerer, Zhao Xu was not afraid of any visions.

Compared with ordinary people, his "Magic Missile" can be regarded as able to restrain many things that ordinary people cannot deal with.

It's just that after he walked a few steps, he always felt that there seemed to be some shadow behind him, which made him a little strange.

But whether Zhao Xu looked back, or relied on listening or reconnaissance skills, he showed that there was nothing unusual.

"Protect from evil!"

Zhao Xu thought about it, and then used one of his usual protective spells to cast it on him.

All of a sudden, he had a little more courage.

At this time, he had already walked to classroom 93, and it seemed that he was not far from 101.

Suddenly, a "Yiya" sound came from behind.

Zhao Xu turned his head sharply, and the wooden door of classroom 92 slowly opened.

Zhao Xu stared at it for half a minute, and the spell was ready to go, but nothing came out of the 92 good classroom.

It seemed that it was just the wooden door that had been half decayed and was blown open by the wind due to disrepair.

The only question is, where does the wind come from?

Reminiscent of the depressing surrounding environment, Zhao Xu knew that he had begun to overreact mentally, and it was easy to continue to be suspicious.

He reached directly into the side pocket of the convenience bag, thinking of the lion's hair, and suddenly he poured one of the ingredients inside the bag, and the lion's hair appeared in his hand.

After Zhao Xu released the Ain stone in his hand, he grabbed the lion's mane and began to chant spells and cast spells.

"Heart of a Lion!"

Immediately afterwards, at the moment the spell was completed, he directly pressed the warm spell energy from his palm into his body.

Suddenly, Zhao Xu mustered up infinite courage!

At this moment, even if there is any supernatural situation, he is not afraid.

Zhao Xu gritted his teeth sharply and rushed directly towards 101's classroom.

If he encounters any strange situation in the wild, he must first cast a spell to see.

But here as a floating city, no one knows that there is any special mechanism.

The "Heart of the Lion" cast by Zhao Xu on himself is a unique magic spell of a paladin, which can make him immune to fear effects for 2 rounds (12 seconds).

When he encountered the giant dragon before, he did nothing, even had difficulty raising his head, and fell into a state of trembling, one of the effects of fear.

Now that he has cast this spell on himself, whether it's the true feeling in his heart or the pure effect, he who is immune to fear will at least not be too passive.

With a distance of ten classrooms, Zhao Xu quickly finished the sprint before 12 seconds came.

It's just that he counted the numbers silently, only to find that the classroom after one zero is classroom one zero two.

Classroom 101 disappeared out of thin air for no reason.

Just like that, Zhao Xu stood on the wall between the two classrooms, lost in thought.

Antinoya definitely wouldn't cheat him if he let him come here.

It's just that Zhao Xu didn't understand why the eighth floor of the palace of learning was full of weirdness.

Suddenly, all the candles in the corridor went out.

The darkness suddenly struck, and crying mixed with laughter rang in his ears.

"Light spell." Zhao Xu took out the firefly in his pocket in an instant and cast this spell.

Suddenly, the magic robe that Zhao Xu had cast the light on shone directly, and was about to break through to dispel the darkness in front of him.

In just a split second, a deeper darkness engulfed him like a wave.

The light technique expired in an instant, and the strange voice also disappeared.

Just like that, Zhao Xu listened to his own heartbeat in the dark environment.

Boom, boom, boom.

It's just that the "Lion's Heart" spell, which is immune to fear, is on his way to the last second.

The deep and dark fear surged up in Zhao Xu's heart again.

Zhao Xu didn't think much about it. He took out another lion's mane from his backpack.

At this moment, he needs to maintain his inner calm.

"Okay." Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind Zhao Xu.

Immediately afterwards, a bonfire burst out in front of him.

Ahead is a dilapidated and dilapidated forest scene.

Five mages in robes and cloaks sat around a bonfire in a forest clearing, and there was still a seat vacant, waiting for him to sit down.

"The person who comes last will always be intimidated. Since you are not scared to cry, go and sit down."

If Zhao Xu hadn't recognized Lei An's voice at this time, he would have cursed on the spot.

But at this time, he still walked over obediently and sat in the vacant seat in front of the campfire.

Only then did Zhao Xu notice that Leian blinked at him deliberately.

"Don't you know how to disperse, kid? I set up this scene so that you can be handsome." Suddenly, Leian's mind link came over.

"There are no undead creatures here, why should I use the ability to disperse undead creatures?" If Lei An hadn't mentioned it, Zhao Xu would have almost forgotten that he still has such an ability.

Now that he encounters problems, he tends to use his own spells more.

"You are also stupid. The positive energy erupted by the dispelling ability has a heart-warming effect."

"I wanted you to show off your strength, so I arranged some more terrifying plots for you. Is the illusion effect going to explode?"

Zhao Xu understood after hearing this, "Your illusion skills are too strong, aren't you?"

"Nonsense, this floor is the mirror of illusion. The control core is in my hands. I can manipulate the space and illusion of this floor at will."

At this time, Zhao Xu had already sat down in the corner. He noticed that the two companions beside him seemed to be girls.

Thinking that the other party must have been intimidated by Lei An's vile just now, Zhao Xu couldn't help showing sympathy.

"Are you okay?" At this moment, the female mage on Zhao Xu's left asked him concerned.

Zhao Xu nodded, "It feels okay."

"Some of these illusions are beyond the scope of normal illusions." The female mage on Zhao Xu's right also said at this time, "I just tried it, and some things do have a real touch."

Leaning against the bonfire, Zhao Xu faintly noticed that the eyes under the hood of the other party were purple

"Hehe, who told you that these are illusions." Suddenly Leian walked directly to the campfire and looked around at the six mages.

"Welcome to the Forest of Lying Words." Leian's voice was low and hoarse.

Zhao Xu guessed that it should be imitated by ghost sound or something.

"Aren't you here to teach me the ability to 'disguise spellcasting'?" Zhao Xu asked Leian, relying on the mind link spell.

"That's the reward for breaking through the level, you idiot, do the test first. If you cause your teammates to lose, you will be taught, and they will not be eligible." Leian warned maliciously, "You think everyone is like you teach everything?"

As Leian thought about it, he began to feel annoyed. Back then, he waited until almost level 10 to be eligible to learn this technique.

"The eighth floor of the Hall of Knowledge is actually an invisible portal. When you step out, you will be teleported to the designated place, which is here - the Forest of Lying Words."

"I think you have heard of it before you came here? Only after you pass the test can you obtain the ability that has never been revealed."

There is nothing more attractive than the abilities that other players cannot learn.

Even though Zhao Xuming knew that he could obtain this ability, he still couldn't help listening to Lei An's words.

"Later, you will be divided into two teams, and then each of you will think of your own code name, and use the code name to refer to it in the team."

"The test is very simple. I placed something in the Forest of Whispering Words. If you find that thing, come back to the bonfire and pass the test."

Leian said word by word.

"What's that thing?" A mage opposite Zhao Xu asked.

"You ask me, who should I ask?" Leian revealed his true nature without saying a word, but he immediately pulled back: "You will know when you see it."

"Okay, take this line as the dividing line, divide you into two teams, stay 30 meters away from me within two rounds, or I will activate the instant death spell." Leian said coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Xu and the two female mages around him quickly got up and retreated to the side.

It wasn't until the three of them ran under a withered tree that they stopped.

At this time, the bonfire where Leian was located had disappeared.

"Then introduce yourself first?" The girl who spoke to Zhao Xu at the beginning said, "Code name, Lu, level 2 mage, player."

"Code name, Ying, level 2 mage, player." said the purple-eyed female mage.

At this moment, both of them looked at Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu was silent for a while and then said, "Code name, Feng, a level 2 mage, is also a player."

All three looked at each other in blank dismay.

God knows when three level 2 mages will appear from Arthur.

Tomorrow 4 more repayment.
