The Truth of Magic

Chapter 201 The Notebook Truth (33)

Zhao Xu was about to open the secondary space bag to check the internal structure.

Suddenly Lux said, "Master, this thing is yours anyway, if you open it now, it's easy to get some residual aura."

Hearing what Lacus said, Zhao Xu stopped to poke in to get a hand.

The "dimension bag" was no different from Zhao Xu's "Howard Convenience Bag". If he couldn't do what he wanted, something would automatically appear above for him to use.

But no matter how rubbish the contents were, Zhao Xu had at least gained something at the moment.

He began to fold and put away the sack-shaped "dimension bag".

Although the dimensional bag itself looks similar, Zhao Xu still judges that the bag in front of him is "Dimensional Bag II", which is worth about 5000 gp, has a space of 2 cubic meters, and can hold two tons of tap water alone.

Even if there are only a few gold coins in it, Zhao Xuguang won't be too much of a loser if he gets this bag.

After all, he just fought monsters, and basically relied on the no-cost business of artifacts.

"Strange, Lacus, why didn't I upgrade this time?" Zhao Xu said to himself at this moment.

In the past, he was able to upgrade smoothly just because of chatting and spanking.

This time, he managed to fight a monster with a challenge level close to level 20, but there was no reward?

Otherwise, Zhao Xu will be able to gain attribute points when he reaches level 4, and he can continue to increase his intelligence to 22 attributes

"Ah? Master, did you make a mistake?" Lux suddenly said with a smile, "I have already obtained the harvest, like the 'Book of Ten Thousand Laws', and my probability of directional transformation has reached 31%. , isn’t it amazing?”

"1%." When Zhao Xu heard the probability of increase, it was better than nothing.

But it also means that maybe one day Lux can change the artifact he wants at will?

It's just that at this moment, a doubt has already surged in his heart.

"Lax, do you want to upgrade too?"

"Yes, master, the true complete form of me can freely transform into any artifact, not just one." Lux said softly, "So I need your support, master."

"And, master, you can also go and see this altar, there are secrets on it." Lux suggested.

"Otherwise, when Mystra's people come in, this place will definitely be sealed off, and you won't be able to explore so casually, Master."

Zhao Xu also cast his gaze on the altar at this moment, and walked slowly forward.

The altar of Naraku, the god of death, is made of a huge piece of cyan pyroxene. In addition to its good conductivity of magic, this material is also very resistant to wear and external force intrusion.

After hundreds of years, there is no longer any offerings on the altar, let alone the god of death has long since disappeared, and no one can be found to please the gods.

After Zhao Xu approached the "altar" a little, he found that in addition to the original inscribed runes, there was a layer of faintly boiling and bubbling blood on it.

Was it just painted with his own blood by the "Devil of the Deep Hell"?

Relying on his recent acquired knowledge of rituals, combined with the results of his knowledge and skill checks on mystery, religion, and planes, Zhao Xu barely guessed what was repainted by the "deep hell demon" , in order to seize the dominance of this altar.

"It is to change the direction of the altar from pointing to the deserted Death God Kingdom to pointing to a certain layer in Purgatory, or its owner." Lacus once invaded the altar, so she immediately Know the actions of the devil.

Zhao Xu nodded. As expected of a devil in the order camp, the concept of class is strong, and he didn't forget to report to his master to apply even after he passed through.

No wonder he felt that the other party was not very powerful, but he still successfully climbed to the high-level status of ordinary devils such as "Deep Prison Demon".

If it were a race like the devil that was not as big as Lao Tzu, the altar would definitely point to its own real name.

But after looking at it, Zhao Xu still honestly took out the "Midsummer's Spell Notes" from his backpack, and copied the ritual spells he saw into it.

At the same time, taking this opportunity, he also gave a brief overview of what happened after he came in.

"Lax, is there anything wrong with the notebook in my hand?"

Zhao Xu and Lacus confirmed that he got this notebook from Andy, and it was a relic of the other's ancestor.

"No, it's just an ordinary notebook that can record unlimited content. The transcribed text will have some spirituality." Lux said after sensing it, "But it has caused some death breath from the tomb. Your master still has some strength."

Have some strength?

To be evaluated by Lux like this, must not be more than a demigod?

When Zhao Xu got the diary, Andy's ancestor in the first few pages also recorded the general location of the tomb, as well as a simple sketch of the entrance of the tomb.

If there is a nearby place passing by, you can go in and explore it.

However, he had better lower his expectations. Places that could have been explored by Andy's ancestors hundreds of years ago may not necessarily be transformed into places for adventurers to rest.

While doing his homework, Zhao Xu asked, "Lax, did you drag me in on purpose?"

He was able to come here, and everything started from the fact that he picked up a broken notebook in the gravel.

"No, master. In fact, from the very beginning, I was lying dormant in that sarcophagus, and I didn't wake up until you entered there. Otherwise, why would I let that 'deep hell demon' swagger here? ’” Lux denied.

Hearing this sentence, Zhao Xu's first reaction was to turn on the "Secondary Rapid Burst", but he had just used up the "Higher Rapid Burst".

He hadn't accepted the penalty of the 1-round stun result, so naturally he couldn't cast this similar spell again.

However, Zhao Xu was not slow to react. He took out the notebook from his pocket and threw it away from the altar.

At this time, Lux had just overdrawn the power-transforming artifact, and she would definitely not be able to support him in a short time.

At this moment, Zhao Xu took out his "protective staff" and stared at the notebook he picked up from the gravel pile that specially led him here.

Suddenly, the notebook that Zhao Xu had dropped on the ground shook for a moment, and a group of faint, hard-to-see spirit bodies slowly seeped out of the notebook, and finally stabilized in the sky and began to reorganize. Become humanoid.

"Ghost." Lux reminded.

Zhao Xu also looked wary at this moment, looking at the ghost that appeared rashly.

But now he is at the third level, not as weak as when he was at the first level.

And the body of the ghost is a middle-aged man, his face is painful, but he can't hide the soldier's breath in the corner of his brow.

Zhao Xu knew that he had met a colleague from his previous life.

"Why did you lead me here on purpose?"

Zhao Xu asked.

After such a long time, Leian failed to find this temple through the Shidunzi sundial, so he couldn't see that this ghost had this ability.

"Mr. Zhongxia, you don't have to worry about me. My wish has already been fulfilled. I will dissipate on my own later." The ghost bowed to Zhao Xu and said thank you.

Speaking of it, he looked at the rotting dregs of the devil after his death, and now it has become a very small lump.

It's not that Zhao Xu doesn't want to care.

Rather, as long as the devils don't die in Bator Hell, no matter what, the dregs of their dead bodies will continue to shrink until they are annihilated.

Then wait a hundred years and be resurrected in hell again.

At that time, what class of devils they become will depend on whether the former owner has given face.

At this moment, Zhao Xu roughly understood the key points of the matter, but did not say much, but continued to wait for Youhun's explanation.

Anyway, if the other party doesn't need to prove himself in a hurry, then he has to continue to discuss and discuss.

"If you think about it, you also know that I am the commander of the Southern Banner Legion who was tempted by the devil and sacrificed his soldiers four hundred years ago." The ghost said with a face of shame.

"You are stupid."

Zhao Xu retorted indifferently.

An army is an organization that is far more closely linked than a team of adventurers.

Zhao Xu also had many brothers in his previous life. In the Battle of Sealing Demons, everyone entrusted each other with life and death. Naturally, this kind of betrayal was even more disgusting.

If the other party is the kind of refugee with no food and clothing, it's all right to be tempted in order to survive, and if he is about to die, how can he control so much.

However, as a high-level commander, he himself has been educated and fell into the manipulation of the devil, and finally fell into a situation where he could not escape from being reduced to a ghost.

Zhao Xu didn't understand and sympathize with the other party because he had fallen into an inescapable ghost state.

"Indeed, I was stupid." The ghost blamed himself.

"After nearly 70 or 80 soldiers were sacrificed at that time, when the dead bones of a certain soldier were dug out, the entire legion fell into an uproar, and soldiers began to flee slowly every day."

"In the end, I expressed to the devil that I was unable to continue the sacrifice, but I got ridiculed by the other party, saying that for revenge, I had sold my soul to them, and I would only become their kinsman after death."

"At that time, I was not reconciled. On the one hand, I felt that my strength was getting stronger and stronger every day, and my appearance became more and more like a devil. On the other hand, I was afraid. So later, I committed suicide in front of this notebook. Sure enough, I really did not change. Instead of being a devil, he succeeded in becoming a ghost."

"Mr. Zhongxia, after you killed the devil, I understand my wish. The rest of the content is recorded in this notebook. I also hope that you can keep this piece of our family's handed down for me. The token brought out of the tomb."

The ghost suddenly said excitedly: "That bitch, you married me for this thing, how could I let them do what they want? They can't guess that the thing they are looking for is what I bring with me every day." The broken notebook on my body, hahaha..."

Before the ghost could finish speaking, the mist-like spirit body that was originally condensed into a ball couldn't support it and dissipated in all directions.

"It made a mistake, and broke away from the protection of the notebook. Its soul will reorganize, and then fall into hell, reincarnated as a devil." Lux said silently.

When Zhao Xu heard this, he didn't say much.

When people make mistakes, they will naturally bear the price, but sooner or later.

At this time, he also walked to the notebook that revealed its true appearance after the ghost disappeared.

In other words, its shape and appearance, and the "Midsummer's Spell Notes" that Zhao Xu obtained from Andy——

exactly the same.
