The Truth of Magic

Chapter 690 Trap Sequence

(The problem of duplication of content in the previous chapter has been fixed. The last sentence should be "Ahead, a door that shone with pitch-black light, and it suddenly opened!". There are about 16 pages on the starting point app. If it is wrong, just exit and re-enter the chapter. If it is wrong, delete it Re-added after book.)

When in doubt, ask the spell first.

This is not necessarily the usual solution for Arthur's spellcasters, but it is definitely the first choice for cheaters like Zhao Xu who have a lot of money and don't have to worry about spell slots at all.

The two stone statues of the construct can be so strict that he needs to destroy them at the same time in one round, and they also have an equal amount of damage transfer.

Even if the legendary warrior came in person, he couldn't afford to walk around.

In front of this swirling portal of dark light, Zhao Xu had to write his name in Arthur's common language upside down on the spot if there were no secret traps arranged inside it.

He was also suspicious.

The simple second secret room actually needs a portal to get there?

It's no wonder that he didn't feel much regional vibration from the beginning, and he didn't recreate a trial space for him at all.

From this point of view, the trial site arranged by the "activation cellar" itself was completely separated, blocking the possibility of taking shortcuts.

"Analysis Portal!"

Zhao Xu immediately cast this three-ring arcane technique, and his eyes immediately filled with a cone-shaped light, which spread to a range of 20 meters.

Fortunately, this spell does not require resistance, so it is not affected by magic immunity.

Zhao Xu immediately analyzed the portal information in front of him through his eyes.

Originally, the power of magic could be used to search for the existence of a "portal gate" in the scanning area, so he naturally skipped this link, recalling the characteristics of the portal in front of him like a memory.

Open the password, affect the startup situation, one-way two-way...

Every round, Zhao Xu got a new kind of information, and he even saw the area where the portal led to.

The information about irregular transmission, random location transmission, limited creature transmission, and abnormal transmission is somewhat vague.

Um?

After the last characteristic information popped up, Zhao Xu looked at the crystal lens and small mirror in his hand as spell-casting equipment, and couldn't help thinking.

Is it actually a malfunctioning portal?

It will definitely work, but it's just a matter of luck.

But this is really petty enough to play tricks in this kind of place.

Didn't know that he once stole the craft of "portal manufacturing"?

Even now it can be simulated "portal creation" with potential points on the spot, so repairing it is naturally not difficult.

Just in a hurry.

However, after Zhao Xu retrieved the information about the failure of the portal in the knowledge (plane), he frowned.

Faulty portals cannot be artificially manufactured in essence.

The failure of the portal is generally caused by the loss of magic power and the impact of magic power for hundreds of thousands of years.

In many cases, magic items handed down from ancient times have mutated, and the natural portal is no exception.

It's just that generally speaking, if a portal is not hundreds of years old, it is unlikely to malfunction.

Not to mention that in Ernest's secret treasure, the protection and storage methods of this arcane king will only become more professional and perfect.

After thinking about it, Zhao Xu shook his head, and then continued to search for the types of faults related to the portal.

When he wanted to build the portal from Falling Star Town to the wild and dead land, he never thought about this kind of malfunction after a hundred years, so he could only rely on the "knowledge" skill to help.

With a "swish", a fault list immediately appeared in front of him, clearly listing various types of portal faults.

Started normally, sent the wrong location.

If it is not activated, a negative energy shock wave will erupt, just like a fatal spell.

If it is not activated, it is like being pushed away by the "telecontrol" effect cast by a level 17 caster.

If the absorption passes, the magic power will cause the magic item to be invalid for several rounds, or even permanently.

...

Looking at these possibilities, Zhao Xu took another look at the dozen or so magic items he was wearing.

Every item was carefully selected by him. If the energy was really sucked away, then he would have the heart to smash this portal.

This is simply an unbearable burden of life!

Any one of these magic items will be sold to the outside world, it will have a price but no market, and there will be no place to buy that kind of magic item.

It was even worth taking out a magic scroll of wishing that cost over 20,000 gold coins to make a wish to restore the magic item to its original state.

Of course, there is still the possibility of "normal startup" for the faulty portal.

But real mages don't bet on "probability."

Zhao Xu directly cast a spell "Stable Portal."

This is a spell similar to the previous "Revitalize the City", and it is not in any occupation list.

It is only listed in one part of the "Transportation" field.

That is to say, only priests who believe in gods with priesthoods such as "Road" and "Travel" who happen to choose the "Teleportation" domain are eligible to cast this spell.

Just like when Zhao Xu was a level 1 priest, he chose "magic" (spell preposition), plan (spell delay), and knowledge (knowledge devotion).

Fortunately, his file scholars are all-encompassing. As long as there is a situation where a priest uses a "transcription scroll" to transcribe a divine spell, then that divine spell falls within the category that the file scholar can learn.

After the rainbow light of the magic spell dispersed, the dark light of the oscillating portal indicated by the failure immediately became much more stable, as if it had restrained its original irritability.

On the other hand, Zhao Xu continued to stand a little further forward. His third ring "Analysis Portal" just now allowed him to glimpse the scene outside the destination behind the portal.

However, this spell that requires concentration, the effect disappeared after he gave up concentration.

In this regard, he continued to take out a glass eyeball from his backpack, lightly crushed it, and scattered the pieces on the portal.

"View Portal!"

The third spell in the Portal Sequence—Visual Portal (four rings)!

After the power of magic was activated, the originally dark and radiant corrugated surface gradually became transparent on the side facing Zhao Xu.

It was like a mirror in an instant, showing a larger, deep, silent and dark secret room in front of Zhao Xu.

Like a voyeur, Zhao Xu put his face on the energy mirror, looked at all angles, and observed every detail on the opposite side.

It's a pity that this spell can't transmit the effect line of the spell, otherwise Zhao Xu could use it to cast a few more detection spells.

It's blank?

Zhao Xu thought to himself.

In this secret room of mine, at least there are two stone statues and wall lamps that are as invulnerable as Xiaoqiang.

The activation cellar clearly doesn’t have many artistic talents, and the scene is also the roughest art level, just copy and paste directly, just like some old domestic animations, all the trees and clouds are copied from the same piece.

Therefore, the "items" that can appear have the most direct indications.

But the next destination, nothing?

It's a pity that he hasn't reached level 11, otherwise he would be able to cast the six-ring spell "Portal Redirection" to directly change the destination of the only magic item that can be teleported to the outside world, so as not to be subjected to the bird's breath of the activation cellar here .

After complaining a few words to himself, Zhao Xu also stood up, stretched his legs and stepped into the portal without saying a word.

With a sense of distortion in time and space, light suddenly flickered in the tall secret room, and after condensing into a vortex, Zhao Xu fell from five meters above the sky like a fixed-point airdrop.

Zhao Xu manipulated his own flying power on the spot, trying to regain his balance.

[Adventurer Zhong Xia, you are affected by "Earth Binding", and you cannot fly here. 】

In an instant, this ruthless reminder came out directly, and Zhao Xu's face changed slightly and he used the "Feather Falling Technique" accordingly.

It was only then that he managed to control the speed of the landing, and he didn't fall to the ground.

After standing still, Zhao Xu immediately used his "secret vision" and many detection methods to look around the secret room, which was about the size of a standard basketball court.

Nothing different?

Zhao Xu wondered, he didn't have any psychological shadows, let alone that he was not afraid of entering the ancient tomb now that he was holding spells.

Is he afraid of ghosts?

The ghost is afraid that he is about the same.

Just for a moment, Zhao Xu frowned.

[Adventurer Zhong Xia, your voter ability, immunity to toxins is successful. 】

poison?

Where did the poison come from?

But as soon as he rolled his eyes, Zhao Xu reacted.

After being annoyed that he was a little honest, Zhao Xu held his breath on the spot, and silently took out the colorful spindle-shaped Ion stone from his backpack, and let it float above his head.

At first, in order to take risks with the team, Zhao Xu took off all the Ain stones on his head, because they are not so meaningful to his own improvement now, but taking them out in Yanan is equivalent to saying "I have Magic item" was written on the forehead.

But I didn't expect that if he wasn't immune to toxins, he would almost fall.

It's actually poisoning the air!

Zhao Xu couldn't help but underestimate the activated cellar.

In order to target him, all kinds of dirty tricks were used.

At this moment, although Zhao Xu was immune to the toxin, he felt uncomfortable in his heart caused by breathing the highly toxic gas.

Zhao Xu still honestly took out the "Ion Stone" to give him the power not to breathe.

At the same time, he glanced warily at his character card panel and checked again.

The secret room just now was a test of his attack methods and damage output ability.

So what is the test in this secret room?

In particular, the empty surroundings did not seem to be actively triggering substances, more like they would actively attack him.

Suddenly, a cold voice came from the void——

"Pass the requirement: Survive and pass 20 levels."

"Countdown to level 1."

"5."

"4."

...

"1."

Zhao Xu heard a strange sound of the mechanism starting, and he turned his head suddenly.

I saw three crossbow arrows with a cold glow shooting towards him, looking at the dark green arrows, they were already contaminated with toxins.

However, he had "Friendly Fire" to divert long-range attacks. Zhao Xu ignored it and turned to look at the strange noise coming from his back at the same time.

At the blind spot of sight, six darts were also shot towards this place.

besides!

Zhao Xu's sudden crab-turtle vision made him notice the strangeness above, a row of poisonous needles stained with dark green blood struck from the top of his head.

Attack from multiple angles at the same time!

At this moment, Zhao Xu already understood.

Since the appearance of the activated cellar, he has been imprisoned in teleportation ability, and naturally all displacement abilities cannot be used.

But trees move to death, people move to live, and ordinary fighters dodge the attacks of their own powerful monsters by relying on their skills.

Without saying a word, Zhao Xu immediately cast himself on the ranger's unique magical spell "Keep your feet on the ground."

[Adventurer Zhong Xia, you are affected by the "down to earth" spell, you get +10 ability bonus on rebalance, climbing, jumping and rolling checks. 】

After casting the spell, Zhao Xu rushed towards another open space in a hurry, as swift as a flash of light, and he could be called as light as a surprise.

While others were still ignorant of dodging, Zhao Xu already understood in his heart.

The three attacks just encountered are the most common level 1 traps—basic arrow traps, poison dart traps, and poison needle traps.

This corresponds exactly to the first level.

Standing in this secret room, Zhao Xu obviously thought that he had triggered a trap, so these three trap targets shot straight at him.

When it is more exaggerated, traps generally need to go to the corresponding position to trigger them, but these traps are basically as long as they are picked in the secret room, they will automatically aim and shoot.

It can also be seen that these traps are by no means ordinary and rigid traps, but their strength is still limited.

However, although Zhao Xu relied on the effect of the star cloak and his superb defensive ability, he still didn't dare to be careless. After thinking about it, he decided to focus on dodge. If he really couldn't avoid it, he would fight hard.

He remembers that there are quite a few first-level traps, is that all?

Just as the idea was born, Zhao Xu noticed that there seemed to be a growing shadow above his head——

Rolling Stone Trap!

A huge rock suddenly appeared high in the sky and fell towards him.

Zhao Xu took a step towards the side without haste.

At this time.

At the next foothold, a burst of flying spears shot towards the head and face.

Spear Trap!

At the same time, several sickles also appeared with iron chains, drawing a half-moon arc, cutting obliquely.

Sickle Trap!

As if they heard Zhao Xu's complaints in his heart, one after another, the first-level traps all walked to the front desk, thinking about Zhao Xu showing their sense of existence.

It's just that Zhao Xu hasn't had time to complain.

Camouflage traps, deep pit traps, dart salvo traps, iron gate traps, sharp steel wire corridor traps, rock traps, and knife wall traps also attacked in sequence, and a series of attacks did not repeat at all.

Once upon a time, Zhao Xu, who hadn't been beaten by these first-level traps in the dungeon, finally made up his homework at this moment when he remembered 10.

What's even more exaggerated is that these traps have a reset function. After all of them are used for a round, the boulders, poisonous needles, and darts all disappear automatically, and then shoot out from the void again.

A simple first level, Zhao Xu has already survived 10 rounds of first-level traps.

But there was no sign of the end in sight.

The voice in the void just said it politely, and it will pass after passing through twenty levels.

But now, I don't even know when the first level is the head!

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but glance at the ordinary walls around him.

Want him to destroy?

Do you really think your uncle's "dispelling magic" is a joke?
