The Truth of Magic

Chapter 545 Dragon Prophecy, Lunar Meteorite

[Correction in the previous chapter: Level 6 feat: Spell Twins, metamagic feat (Level 2 of Spellcasting): Far Spell]

Ever since Zhao Xu talked to Wang Ningwei on the phone that night and told her the secret of world travel, even the weakest barrier between them disappeared.

If you want to describe it in one sentence, it is the closest comrade-in-arms.

At this time, the periphery of the association's resident area was already crowded with people, and Rota, who was in charge of the construction of the resident, had to stop the work at hand and come out to entertain the high-level officials of these towns.

But everyone's original intention was to try to contact Zhao Xu through his secretary to know the destination of the portal's hook in advance.

As for the few portal artisans who came from Mystra, thousands of miles away, they are even more disciplined, treating themselves as dumb, not saying a word.

But no one knew that Zhao Xu, who was very popular at this time, was leaning on a door, and was having several key discussions with Wang Ningwei who was beside him.

"Potential."

Wang Ningwei couldn't help but look at Zhao Xu after listening, the significance of which was self-evident.

Both of them are clear that the meaning of their potential points is naturally limited.

But the second way to obtain potential points means that it can be spread.

The third and fourth players with potential points can be copied because of this, which is extremely domineering.

"Zhong Xia, you have to be cautious about this kind of thing after all." Wang Ningwei advised.

Potential points can restore spell slots, which can already be said to be on the edge of the loopholes in the world rules.

It's just that there are fewer potential point owners, and even fewer of them are mages.

If a mage with potential points can still reach the fifth ring, another discount will be applied.

In the end, among the few remaining few people, they still need to have access to learn the spell of "Unruly Heroism". When added up, it is really rare.

This is also why this back door can still be retained, unlike the "quick burst" that can be learned once it is severely suppressed.

Because its threshold is too low, it is only a second-level spell.

But once Zhao Xu's method spreads, the threshold will be lowered, and it will only be those with vested interests who will be disadvantaged in the end.

It's not that she is selfish, but that a huge and incomparable interest class is involved behind it.

It was the entire group of mages who took advantage of Arthur's loopholes.

"Don't worry." Zhao Xu said, "I'm just telling you that you also have 'potential points'."

"The simulation expertise is no less than the powerful potential point ability of recovering spell slots," Zhao Xu said.

Many specialties are chained specialties, and if you want to simulate them, you have to pay two potential points.

"What's that?" Wang Ningwei also asked expectantly.

"Remember, Ningwei, you owe me a favor." Zhao Xu joked.

"I owe a lot, Zhong Xia." Wang Ningwei said with a smile.

Then Zhao Xu also became serious, and he stretched out two fingers, "With expertise, you can get potential points."

"The first specialty, 'Dragon Prophet'."

As he spoke, Zhao Xu's eyes looked out of the window, at the tower that had just been topped out, and the craftsman was hanging above it with a carving knife to carve out the emblems of the Eight Great Schools.

"In most of Arthur's places, from the vast blue sky to the depths of the filthy cave, there are symbols. The legendary dragons in ancient times observed the symbols around them and tried to find these natural symbols The significance of the traces, trying to get the omen of the legendary 'dragon prophecy'."

"With this expertise, we can, like those legendary dragons, pursue and decipher the records that all things should have, and realize what will happen."

"So with the specialty of 'Dragon Prophet', we will be able to inspire a kind of foresight ability—prophetic praise."

"Prerequisites for this feat: Knowledge (arcana) 2 ranks, Language (Draconic)"

Speaking of which, Wang Ningwei saw Zhao Xu suddenly raise his fist high, and then his whole body began to emit a mysterious aura.

At this moment, he seems to be a prophet, his eyes have lost their focus, as if the river of fate is where they fall.

Then Zhao Xu stretched out his finger and pointed gently at Wang Ningwei's forehead, that's all.

[Adventurer Zhongxia, you have awakened a level 9 character level specialty: Dragon Prophet, gaining the ability of "Praise of Prophecy". 】

[Adventurer Zhong Xia, you cast "Praise of Prophecy", save +1 insight bonus. Duration: 3+1/2 knowledge (mystery) = 9 rounds]

In an instant, Zhao Xu saw that his total of 8 (level/2 + perception adjustment) prophecy praises had dropped to 7 times.

Right now, he is also in this state. Apart from the small first-level promotion, he seems to have seen the strangeness of these mysterious symbols.

"The second key specialty is called 'Heroes of Prophecy'."

"Its pre-feature is 'Dragon Prophet'. The effect is that as long as it is in the state of 'Prophecy Praise', it can get 1 action point. This 1 point of potential is also the key to activating the 'Unruly Heroism'."

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Xu continued to raise his finger and made a complicated gesture, but in Wang Ningwei's view, it revealed some kind of immortality.

"Potential Point Simulation Specialty: Prophecy Hero."

[Adventurer Zhong Xia, you activate the "Prophetic Hero" specialty (potential point simulation). 】

[Adventurer Zhongxia: You get 1 temporary potential point (prophetic hero), duration: 9 rounds]

At this time, the value on Zhao Xu's panel also changed to——

Potential points: 9+2 (temporary)

Then Zhao Xu revealed the details of the second specialty, "Heroes of Prophecy".

After listening, Wang Ningwei also took a deep breath, trying to calm down her emotions.

"Using a nearly one-round-time 'Prophecy Praise' ritual action to activate a temporary potential point that lasts for several rounds, it is already very difficult to reproduce it in a battle situation. Therefore, it can only be used to activate 'Unruly Heroes' Manner' and dual specialties like making portals."

Speaking of which, Wang Ningwei looked at Zhao Xu curiously, "But for you, the price is too high. Although the second prophecy hero can be simulated with potential points, the price of a specialization may not be worth it."

If you are a player without potential points, you need to learn the two specialties of "Dragon Prophet" and "Prophecy Hero" to have potential points.

Let alone two, even three are worth it.

This is what "Potential Point" means.

It is equivalent to communicating infinite possibilities.

However, Zhao Xu patted Wang Ningwei's shoulder lightly, "You can experience the usefulness of being able to simulate two specialties at the same time, and you will slowly experience this."

"Besides, we have specialties, which can be washed away."

"impossible."

Wang Ningwei showed an unbelievable expression, "After the cataclysm, the 'retraining' of returning one's own potential and re-selecting specialties is no longer heard of."

Zhao Xu, on the other hand, remained silent and took out a scroll case from his backpack and handed it over.

Wang Ningwei spread out the magic scroll with a doubtful tone, "Is this kind of material and length an arcane technique that exceeds seven rings?"

The next moment, her eyes were completely attracted, and her voice even trembled slightly.

"How can it be?"

On the scroll, there are two eight-ring spells "Avoid Chaos" and "Switch to Chaos". This is a magic scroll that can cast these two spells.

Now that Wang Ningwei is in her hand, she can even take a gamble to cast these two spells.

"It's really hard to believe, but Ningwei, you should understand by now."

As he spoke, Zhao Xu looked out the window at the five-meter-tall, semi-circular stone door frame that was being built, which was also the base of the future portal.

"Spells are Arthur's primary productivity."

"We mages are essentially cheaters in this world."

"This scroll is just my birthday present to you."

observatory.

"It's strange, the 'flash explosion' phenomenon on the moon has been quite frequent recently."

A researcher wiped the lens on his hand, carefully looked at the analysis report in his hand and said.

Another researcher shook the coffee in his hand and sniffed the scent floating on it, "Meteorites hit the moon, in fact, it may happen every day, what's the matter?"

Since amateur astronomers observed the appearance of mysterious bright spots on the moon many years ago, astronomers have also speculated that this "moon flash" is essentially a meteorite hitting the moon after joining the research.

Compared with the earth, the moon without atmosphere is directly facing the landing of meteorites, without any friction protection.

This is one of the reasons why the moon's surface is cratered.

"But the observations are different. The last time it was observed on a large scale was during the total lunar eclipse last year."

"Hey, when will our institute's 'Lunar Impact Detection and Analysis System' project be approved." The researcher said with emotion.

"You just have to wait. If you get approved within this year, you'll have to laugh."

Just as the two of them were talking, a bright spot of light suddenly flashed on the distant moon.

It excited countless amateurs around the world who aimed their telescopes at the moon and enthusiastically recorded the situation at this moment.

On the other side, Zhao Xu was on the roof of the dormitory, holding hot tea and blowing the evening breeze.

Under the naked eye, the moon is still extremely bright, disc jasper.

It's just that he knows very well in his heart that his days on earth are not many.
