The Truth of Magic

Chapter 68 The Path of the Mage

In the next few days, Zhao Xu improved his strength with peace of mind, and did not have any contact with the players again.

After Antinoya's explanation later, he realized that the magic field in the three fields of his pastor resonated with the origin of magic.

As a result, he instantly raised the skill of identifying spells to level 4.

Antino Yabu lowered the "Rainbow Ball" to judge this point.

At the same time, he was immediately driven to take a "magic missile" like a sheep, in order to use his original remaining power as soon as possible, so that he directly mastered the ability of "counter-spell".

The only aftermath of this incident is that some players who witnessed it in the underground plaza posted on the forum.

That post focused on the fact that Zhao Xu spoke mandarin but did not have a common language at the time, and that the female sorcerer's" magic missile" failed to release successfully.

In the end, it was concluded that "Zhao Xu is a player who has mastered counter-spells", which made many forum gods scoff at this.

Because from the opening of the server to the present, none of the players has been able to master this ability.

This is a feat that even the vanguard who became a level 1 mage from the 7th to the 14th day failed to accomplish.

Mystra is a city where players like Mystra are the fastest to become a mage in 20 days. It is really not convincing to say that such a genius has appeared.

The only thing Zhao Xu did was to like the comments that refuted the poster.

At the same time, with the introduction of the magic field, Zhao Xu's own knowledge field finally showed signs of communicating with the source of knowledge.

Zhao Xu also spent most of his time every day browsing various books in the knowledge library of Floating Void City.

Unlike the first level of knowledge (mystery), which he had a hard time upgrading to, basically every knowledge and skill was quickly improved by him.

After completing the knowledge and skills, he also finished the remaining extra languages ​​by the way.

Finally, Zhao Xu followed Antinoya to the seventh floor of the Obelisk - "Secret Star Cross".

The entire obelisk is the tallest tower on the floating city, and it is also the residence of the "final scroll".

The obelisk itself has been remodeled to widen the space, and at the same time, there are countless magic barriers around it. Basically, if you want to get in, you have to use a portal to get in without a fifth-level teleportation spell.

"Mentor, it's quite luxurious here." Zhao Xu said after looking at Antinoya's usual office.

Not to mention the various golems patrolling outside, just the set of menacing skeleton-shaped armor in the living room made Zhao Xu watch carefully for a long time.

In the previous life, what their fighters wanted most was this kind of incomparably tough full body armor.

Put it on the earth and have the same status as houses and cars.

Antinoya, a mage, probably wouldn't be able to wear this kind of armor, and the defense bonus provided by the armor might not be as high as her own spells.

"Don't touch it, it's an artifact." Antinoya warned.

After improving his concentration skills these days, Zhao Xu already felt that he was calm in every major event.

Hearing this sentence, I still couldn't help my heart beat a little faster.

"Sub-artifact?"

"That's right, this armor is quite good. It is immune to a lot of negative effects, but there is a failure rate of arcane spells. We mages can't wear it. It's a pity that you are also a mage. Otherwise, it's very suitable for you to wear. With your priest magic, You are a weapon on the battlefield."

Zhao Xu couldn't help turning around the armor, "Teacher, are you afraid of being stolen if you put it here?"

"For the strong who can break through here, if they want to steal it, they go to the bottom floor to steal it. What's the point of coming to me. It's just a broken secondary artifact."

"What's there?"

"Think about our name?" Antinoya smiled.

Zhao Xu nodded and realized that the legendary scroll guarded by their force was placed at the bottom of the obelisk.

It involves the secret of becoming a god of every goddess of magic.

Zhao Xu usually thinks about all kinds of small details that are wrong, but now that he came to Antinoya, he finally couldn't help his original curiosity.

He whispered, "Teacher, you have blocked all the detection and prediction spells here, right?"

"Nonsense. Even the divine power may not be able to monitor here." Antinoya said eloquently, "The greatest value of the armor as a divine weapon is that it can interfere with the divine power after being blessed with legendary spells. You read the real name of the god here , They may not be able to hear the following content clearly, of course you don't want to be dead, I don't want to attract the attention of the gods."

Hearing this, Zhao Xu made up his mind. It turned out that it wasn't for being handsome.

"Mentor, since the scroll involves the secret of becoming a god, why is no one reading it secretly?"

The walls can stop the enemies on the outside, but not the rebels on the inside.

No matter how high one climbs, it is still the goddess's subordinate god, so it is not comfortable to be the main god directly.

Antinoya was looking at the new document of the day.

"Let me tell you this, basically every legendary mage in the "Final Scroll" has seen that scroll. So everyone knows the secret of becoming a god."

Zhao Xu suddenly felt that the topic was too advanced for a level 1 person like him, but he couldn't help his curiosity in his heart.

He looked at his priest magic, and there was no sign of disappearing, so he hurriedly continued to ask, "Isn't this even more strange?"

At this time, Antinoya looked at Zhao Xu carefully, "Usually people only dare to inquire about such things when they are about to become senior mages. You are quite courageous."

After Antinoya's confusion a few days ago, Zhao Xu's mood has taken a leap forward, and he is not as cautious as in his previous life.

"Teacher, that's it?" Zhao Xu's voice rose slightly.

"Come here, learn your next specialty, and then go out and practice hard." Antinoya said angrily.

Zhao Xu realized that this was the first time that Antinoya did not answer directly.

Usually, even if it was a legendary secret, Antinoya's character was outspoken.

He faintly felt that the organization of "The Final Scroll" was able to win over so many powerful legendary mages, perhaps it was not as simple as guarding the scroll itself.

"You still have two specialties, right?" Antinoya asked lightly.

Zhao Xu nodded, "There are still level 1 specialties and human reward specialties that have not yet been determined."

His two defect specialties had already selected "Strange Foresight" and "Spell Familiarity".

"Then tell me, which aspect of your ability do you want to improve?" Antinoya asked.

"Mentor, didn't you say that the expertise is arranged by you?"

"Idiot, you can decide the order of learning first and then learning by yourself, and our arrangement is a rough range. The specifics are not so dead, anyway, they are all very strong."

Hearing this, Zhao Xu became a little confused.

He looked at his spell panel, and couldn't help thinking.

What is he lacking the most?

A mage has very few spell slots per day. Now that he has more priest magic, he can make do with it.

Suddenly, Zhao Xu looked at the spell slots that had been prepared.

"Mentor, do you have any specialties to increase the degree of freedom? Like the strange seer, I can cast whatever spells I want." Zhao Xu asked.

"Yes, 'multi-talented spellcaster'."
