The Truth of Magic

Chapter 41 The Real Spell

It's just that Antinoya was completely unmoved, as if he didn't see his waving arm.

Zhao Xu knew something was wrong.

Antinoya didn't even make the most basic dodge moves.

Refusal to move does not mean that the defense level will return to zero. After all, there are still armor bonuses and deflection bonuses.

But if you don't move, the Dexterity is regarded as 0, and the adjustment value becomes -5.

No one can underestimate the impact of these 5 points on the defense level.

It's just that Zhao Xu was like a gambler who had followed the last blow, and it was impossible for him to take the punch back now.

It's just that he was about to meet Antinoya, just like the magic missile spell was about to be triggered.

Zhao Xu's eyes showed a look of disbelief.

A pair of huge and translucent wings spread out behind Antinoya, and she was like half a dragon and half a man at this moment.

Zhao Xu could only continue to swing regardless, even if Antinoya had completely turned into a real dragon at this moment, he would still swing this punch.

The aura of a warrior has always been indomitable.

Facing Zhao Xu's punch with all his strength, Antinoya's translucent wings were not for decoration, and they embraced him directly, forming an invisible force field barrier in the shape of dragon wings.

Zhao Xu suddenly realized that his punch was like a mud cow entering the sea, and the strength dissipated invisible.

The azure light on the palm, representing the touch of fatigue, also disappeared.

His attack was dispelled, and the spell was gone.

"The second-level spell, Wings of Protection, is immune to a special attack. I will give up this spell next, and you continue."

After watching Zhao Xu barely stand still, Antinoya said to him slowly.

It was too difficult. Even with Zhao Xu's tenacious mind, he felt that there was a dead end in front of him.

There are walls everywhere, and one is demolished, and there is another, endless.

Although this spell can be naturally immune to one attack, it is extremely powerful and only a second-level spell, which is very attractive to him.

But Zhao Xu had no anger in his heart at this moment.

His eyes were full of fighting spirit and looked at Antinoya, as if it were a whetstone.

Zhao Xu knew that he could only cast one spell each round, which was too slow.

He also wanted to cast two spells a turn.

In this way, at least Antinoya would not deal with it so easily.

It's just that he can't do anything, because most of the spells are "standard action" time.

The "swift action" spells that can be released instantly are not common, and they are not within his current grasp.

So Zhao Xu could only cast one spell a round, while Antinoya threw out one spell a round to deal with it, just like playing chess.

At this point, he only has one last zero-level spell left.

It's hard for a smart woman to cook without rice if she wants to lose two.

"If you don't move, you'll lose." Antinoya looked at him and said with a smile.

Zhao Xu had never been the kind of person who would do anything on his own terms, but he was very patient with the taunts in battle.

In the battles in his previous life, he had seen too many battles and rushed forward because he couldn't help himself.

In the end, the loser who was directly killed by the monster's backhand without even rushing in front of the monster.

In the casino, the people who lose their fortune in gambling are the ones who lose their minds after losing a lot and increase their bets crazily.

If Zhao Xu was irrational at this moment, he would just cast the last spell.

After returning in vain, that was the real ridicule by Antinoya to death.

Zhao Xu continued to pace around Antinoya.

He doesn't like gambling.

It's just that until now, there is no other way.

Antinoya said that the spells she had used would not be used again.

Mages study spells, shouldn't they repeat their studies, right?

If this was true, then maybe Antinoya would not have the means to be immune to ray attacks.

Zhao Xu's eyes were firm, and he watched Antinoya begin to chant spells.

This time, his casting time was longer than before.

Finally, Zhao Xu's robe did not move in the wind.

Freeze Rays!

The cold air and icy ray shot out from Zhao Xu's hand and shot straight at Antinoya.

It's very similar to Acid Splash, except it deals cold damage.

However, Antinoya sneered the moment Zhao Xu cast the spell.

Hearing this laughter, Zhao Xu knew that he had failed again.

It's just that his last spell was also used up.

In his mind, he suddenly entered an ethereal state.

Everything in the world seems to be outside, and everything can no longer disturb him.

The little bit of consciousness that Zhao Xu had left told him that he needed to be faster.

He still needs to cast the spell immediately. Without two simultaneous spells, it is impossible to break through the barrier set by Antinoya.

It's just that he didn't!

He doesn't know any "swift action" spells.

He also doesn't have any spell slots anymore.

Unless, he can compress "standard action" into "swift action".

Unless, he can restore the spell slot he just used.

Zhao Xu's pupils suddenly turned a little gray, like a proud god looking down on the world.

At this moment, the cold air created by his "Freezing Ray" had reached Antinoya.

The tragedies in the world are always similar.

Antinoya seemed to have a huge repulsion, and the cold air was ejected away on the spot before it touched the corner of her clothes.

An invisible force has been covering and guarding Antinoya's whole body.

"The fourth-level spell, Friendly Fire, can—"

Antinoya's words did not finish.

The Freezing Ray is back!

The second "frozen ray" formed by the condensation of cold air and ice and snow appeared at an unknown time, approaching Antinoya's body.

Zhao Xu cast two freezing rays in succession!

Zhao Xu just felt that something was gushing out of his mind, but he didn't even notice it.

On his character card panel, a line of text appeared:

【Potential points: 5】

No matter what, his freezing ray, which could not be compressed into a "swift action", was just so unreasonable, and he cast it instantly.

Just like that, the second "freezing ray" landed on Antinoya abruptly.

Then it melted, and a few drops of water fell to the ground.

Antinoya's defense blocked the ray.

However, she was also hit by Zhao Xu's spell.

Zhao Xu succeeded.

Everything is so contrary to common sense!

Not to mention that Zhao Xu no longer has any spell slots!

He also doesn't know the super magic specialty - instant spell casting.

The second freezing ray can arrive at the same time, and it is it that is directly cast instantly.

After the "Instant Spell" supermagic, all "standard action" spells can be transformed into "swift action" spells.

From a few seconds of chant to instant casting.

This is where the strategic value of "Instant Spell Casting" lies.

So even if "spell instant casting" needs to use a spell slot four levels higher, it is still flocked to by people.

However, Zhao Xu's "Freezing Ray" was a "level zero spell", and if he wanted to cast it instantly, he had to use a level four spell slot as the price.

And even if his spell slot is intact, it is only a first-level spell slot. How can he go beyond three levels to perform instant casting?

Not to mention, he didn't master the metamagic specialty of "Instant Spell".

"How did he do it?"

In the shadowy corner of the arena, a mage in black robe came out and looked at Zhao Xu, but asked Antinoya what he said.

Why can Zhao Xu be so unreasonable?

Why?
