The Truth of Magic

Chapter 489 The Disappeared Antinoya

At this moment, Antinoya turned his head and looked at the demon lord who appeared rashly.

Suddenly her voice became a little hurried.

"Do not look back."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Xu realized that Antinoya had disappeared without a trace.

Her whole body was like a blister under the scorching sun, and she couldn't see any traces in the blink of an eye.

It seemed that Zhao Xu was the only one who came into this hole in the first place.

"Bouncy ball!"

Zhao Xu immediately held the super magic instant scepter in his hand, and at this extremely dangerous moment, cast this powerful defensive spell.

Immediately, a slightly shiny spherical force field immediately surrounded him. At first glance, the translucent sphere itself was constantly flowing with layers of energy fluctuations, which seemed to burst at any time like a bubble ball, but it could not be destroyed.

The bouncy ball is the strongest defensive spell among the four rings.

At the same time, it was also the most powerful trapping spell that Zhao Xu could use at present.

At this moment, Zhao Xu was shrouded in this immovable barrier, but it did not affect his breathing and internal movement.

Inside and outside the barrier of this bouncy ball, there are two worlds.

Nothing can pass through this sphere!

In his previous life, Zhao Xu had seen this spell and suffered a lot from it on the battlefield.

At that time, a group of adventurers of them were hired as a flank to round up a murderous and defected Four Rings evil mage.

According to the information Zhao Xu received before the mission, there were not many spell slots left for the mage.

It's just that the lean camel was bigger than the horse, and even when the sorcerer was exhausted, he still easily slaughtered more than ten of his teammates.

Then, Zhao Xu saw the evil sorcerer use his last life-saving spell" Bouncy Ball".

At that time, Zhao Xu and more than twenty adventurers, because there was no spellcaster, all kinds of knives and axes were aimed at the translucent sphere, but it was of no use at all.

It has been delayed until the reinforcements of the mage arrive, allowing the other party to escape smoothly.

Only the designated four methods—wiping scepter, negating scepter, disintegration technique (sixth ring) or target dispelling magic (three rings) can try to dispel the sphere first, and then try to attack the people inside.

Like the holy avenger in Vivian's hand, which can cast advanced dispelling magic, because it is an area-type dispelling, it has nothing to do with the bouncy ball.

Therefore, the strength of this spell is that it can be used to divide the battlefield, control some enemies, or protect teammates who have lost their combat effectiveness.

For ordinary warrior adventurers, this sphere is an unsolvable existence for a lifetime.

If someone casts these spells on the majority of players as soon as they enter the early stage of the game, no matter how hard it is, some people will give up the battle and follow the law.

After Zhao Xu successfully cast this heaven-defying protective evocation spell, he did not relax in the slightest.

He knew this spell, and for Grazte who could instantly make Antinoya disappear, it was just a waste of the opponent's "movement" of dismantling.

He still had to think of his own way at the moment when the other party acted.

"Young man, it seems that this is the third time we have met." Grazte's seductive voice came from behind him.

Zhao Xu followed Antinoya's last order.

Never look back.

He didn't even respond to the other party's words.

Facing an abyssal demon lord who has witnessed thousands of years of history, no matter how many means, it is the same in the eyes of the other party.

Any insidious tricks and calculations are the remaining means of these purgatory creatures.

Only if the strength can suppress them, that is the real victory.

"oh?"

"Don't respond to me? It's okay, just listen to me, as long as you can keep silent, it doesn't matter."

"For the first time, you took back Frank's wife's soul from me. Those trash haven't caught them for me so far. I still remember this account."

Zhao Xu just hummed inwardly after hearing this, but did not refute.

Antinoya just glanced back and disappeared, so besides not looking back, he also tended to say as little as possible.

And this sentence of Graz'zt's incomparable arrogance also exposed the essence of the demons.

According to the opponent's logic, one bet only means this one victory.

That doesn't mean the demons won't do it any more.

Even the contract has no effect on the demons of the chaotic camp.

They are like nicknames, once you keep up with them, you can never leave them behind.

"The second time, I asked you for a promise. For this, I even sacrificed my chosen pastor. The succubus itself is very loyal to me, but now it is imprisoned in the dark by you. Under the dungeon. This is the second loss you have caused me."

Even if Zhao Xu had been put on a mental barrier by Antinoya, he would no longer be affected by any mental spells and effects.

But just listening to Grazte's passionate remarks made Zhao Xu feel that he was really wrong.

He immediately took a few deep breaths, constantly trying to restore his calmness and indifference.

I even started to control the thinking in my mind, not to think too much, and reduce the impact in this regard.

He knew that this was the alternating effect of Graz'zt's three powerful skills of "negotiation", "intimidation" and "bluffing".

"Zhong Xia, now I'm giving you a third chance, I hope you don't let me down again this time, otherwise my anger will make you unbearable."

"I need a promise from you."

"As long as you make this promise, I can even make your incarnation a lord of the abyss and control one of the planes. Just think about it, this monstrous power is what Antinoya can give you just now Is it?"

"After the demise of the magic empire, she is just a princess respected by all races in name, famous but not real. What can she give you?"

"And you, as long as you promise me an illusory promise now, I may not even need it to be fulfilled in the future. What is so difficult for you?"

At this moment, Graz'zt's voice was getting closer, as if it had come to Zhao Xu's side at this moment, whispering in his ear.

However, Zhao Xu still calmly looked at the shield in front of him.

As long as it is still there, it means that you are still safe.

"Oh. Still don't say a word, use silence to fight?" Grazte suddenly said with emotion.

"I once promised a lucky person an artifact. It was a cornucopia of gold coins that kept popping out. Every time I reached in, I could take out 1,000 gold coins from it, but the price was the relatives and friends that the lucky person knew. Friends will die because of this. Guess how many times the other party tried to catch it?"

"I don't make the moral dilemma choices you demons set up."

Zhao Xu suddenly replied.

No need to guess, he knows what dimension Grazte will expand to next.

For example, what should I choose if the person who died was not a relative or friend I knew.

Even as long as Zhao Xu started to answer "no."

Then in the following story model, the "cornucopia" will become a "healing basin", and next to it are relatives waiting for his rescue.

It will gradually question Zhao Xu's heart by constantly revising the entire story model and blurring the boundaries.

Once temptation fails, these chaotic demons tend to shatter a person's "idea."

This is also the reason why only those with firm beliefs can become a qualified paladin.

Even paladins run into many moral dilemmas as a result.

Even Graz'zt only needs to ask a paladin, what is the paladin going to do in order to save a person by eating the corpse of a dead baby?

If it is negative, what about the people in that city?

This kind of moral sophistry is to set a trap by presupposing a dilemma.

So Zhao Xu also refused for the first time.

After all, he had read a lot of the book "300 Questions about Devil's Moral Dilemma".

And Grazte didn't seem to expect that Zhao Xu, who was standing in front of him, didn't have the heart to gossip and listen to stories, so he flatly refused.

After a few dry laughs, it continued to change direction.

"Then you don't care about the safety of 'Anti Noah'? I killed her just now. If you hurry up, you can save her. Maybe she will die from now on because of your life-saving grace." Desperate for you."

"Oh? Really? Then I have to crush her soul directly."

"No." Zhao Xu said, "I don't believe at all that you can do anything to your mentor."

Zhao Xu still found that he had been hit in the soft spot.

Although he was 99% sure that Antinoya would be fine.

But in the face of a "demon lord" who almost climbed to the top of the abyss lord, if the other party came in person at this moment, and then cooperated with special means to catch Antinoya by surprise, then 1% of the accidents would happen Possibilities still exist.

So for the 1% possibility, Zhao Xu resolutely decided to speak up, and tried to get him to reveal more information.

"Help me." Suddenly Antinoya's voice came, full of pain, as if struggling.

"I'm fine." Suddenly there was another voice in front of the altar, and it was Antinoya's voice.

It's just that the sound came from within the barrier of the elastic ball.

At this moment, Zhao Xu gently put down his right hand that had just snapped his fingers.

He just used Zero Ring's "Phantom Sound Technique" to engrave Antinoya's voice.

It also told Grazte behind him that simulating this kind of voice, this kind of psychological attack, was of no use to him at all.

"Interesting. I even suspect that Antinoya has done an offensive and defensive test against high-level demons with you."

Grazte couldn't help but praised, "I'm curious, why are you so sure that I can't kill Antinoya."

"You know, those who have really seen the methods that Ernest left Antinoya with are basically dead. Only we old antiques in this world can know how terrible she is."

When Zhao Xu heard this, he couldn't help laughing.

Antinoya also teased him, saying some ambiguous things to deceive him.

But the only thing is, she never brags. She said that if she could visit the Abyss anytime, or even tease Graz'zt, that would do it.

And with this kind of strength, Graz'zt can easily obliterate it.

He just estimated the possibility of less than 1%, not that he really believed it.

Just like everyone walking is likely to be hit by a drunk driver who runs a red light, the probability exists, it just depends on how big it is.

He also suspected that Antinoya just disappeared suddenly for a while, otherwise the demon could shut himself up for a few days first, weakening his will first.

"Why do you need a promise from me?"

After a long time, Zhao Xu couldn't help but ask, which was a question he had thought about several times.

"It starts with a long story."

Graz'zt's voice grew deeper and deeper.

"If you don't mind, you can listen to me slowly."
