The Truth of Magic

Chapter 76 Camping

After more than half an hour of consolidation, the entire smuggling caravan finally recovered the lost carriages. It took another hour or two before the skilled attendants repaired the damaged carts.

Seeing that there were no casualties, Roja also knew that the spell was the last warning of the Outmar Isdruid.

If Roja still dared to try to take the original forest path, then the next time he would be greeted by a single lightning strike that missed someone, but a direct area-killing spell.

Arthur, which is more primitive and closed, does not have so many good roads for horse-drawn carriages than the various roads on the earth that are densely built like a network.

Those virgin forests that have not been opened up, let alone a carriage, ordinary people may not be able to walk through them with a mountain axe.

After discussing with several people in Roja, they had no choice but to adopt the alternative plan explained by the original leader and go around from the Yit Field.

Compared with the Beiyu forest guarded by druids, the biggest problem with the entire Yit Field is that the monsters gather more densely and are more vulnerable to attacks.

This time is also a trial for Roja after he took over the position, and he can only continue to grit his teeth and persevere.

After the entire smuggling caravan set off again, they spent most of the day at ease. It was not until nightfall that the caravan found a place near the stream to build a bonfire and set up tents.

Zhao Xu and the others took the opportunity to go offline to eat and take a shower, and then hurried back online again.

If the team is attacked and leaves during this empty window, it is really difficult to survive in the wild with only a few players, even if it is only a day away from the town, it may not be possible to go back smoothly.

Handing in the resurrection stone and returning to the city passively has become a way for many exhausted players to give up treatment.

This is also the reason why early players try to stay in groups and not go deep into the wild.

In the middle of the night, everyone sat around the bonfire and chatted with each other. After the emergency escape during the day, the original strangeness disappeared a lot.

The wanderer enthusiastically recalled what he had seen and heard during the day, and the other three players also laughed at the right time, as if everything was an episode.

Zhao Xu sat on the sidelines and quietly examined his mistakes today.

Roja's subordinates don't have any spellcasters, they are basically level 1 fighters, and even level 1 civilians, at best, Roja himself is one or two levels taller.

Naturally, they couldn't recognize that the spell was an upgraded version of the third-level spell "Summon Thunder" and the fifth-level spell "Summon Thunderstorm" like Zhao Xu, who had a level 4 spell recognition.

Zhao Xu could tell at the first glance that although the spell was a continuous attack, it would only hit one place each round, and unless they were very close, they would send one away at a time.

There were nearly fifty people present, and Zhao Xu's chance of hitting was actually very low.

This is also the reason why he is looking for these smuggling caravans. There are many people and there are many targets. He also has the opportunity to divert the enemy's attention when encountering risks.

It's just that Zhao Xu was completely flustered at the time, and put his hope of survival on the three cards that Antinoya gave him.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but say that he was stupid.

Faced with that kind of scene, his first goal should be to fall on those tree people.

At that time, if he put on mage armor and his defense level could reach level 14, it would really be useless to face these treants with attack power reaching level 12.

Only when the defense level exceeds the attack power by 10 or more can the hit rate be reduced to below 50%.

But he can apply a first-level divine spell sanctuary spell to himself.

If he blesses the Ain Stone and the sanctuary spell that lasts for 4 rounds after being superimposed with the spell delay, those treants who want to hit him have to pass Zhao Xu's spell immunity test, so there is almost a third of them innately. Miss possible.

No matter how bad it is, he can also release the first-level divine magic, such as Hidden Mist, to suppress the enemy's vision.

Although if he cast a spell at that time, it is very likely that he would immediately become the target of priority removal.

But it's one thing to act or not, it's another thing to be able to react and make a reasonable plan.

After summarizing, Zhao Xu also knew that he was a novice mage after all, and everyone knew some battle experience, but the difficulty was to choose between the flashes and flints and make the best choice.

Zhao Xu also understood that the plan he made at the beginning was still water, and did not achieve the goal, so he could only continue to adjust in the next few days.

Then, in the middle of the night, Rucker told them that there was a regular watch and that it would be their turn a few days later.

Several players returned to the temporary tent to rest in peace.

Zhao Xu didn't consume spell slots today, so he didn't need to rest for another 8 hours to recover spell slots.

And the spell slot will not be refreshed at a certain moment. Eight hours before preparing the spell, if he is attacked and releases the spell, it will still be counted as the next day's spell slot.

So mages hate night raids in the middle of the night, but this is the hobby of wild monsters.

Although Zhao Xu didn't need to sleep, he quietly took out the books Antinoya gave him and looked through them.

Rainbow, the rogue at the side, couldn't help but glance over, "Mr. Zhong Xia, I didn't expect your backpack to be flat, and you can pretend to understand things."

"Visual effects." Zhao Xu let out a haha ​​and got over it.

The book in Zhao Xu's hand was the tutorial for the "Persistence of Spells" specialty that Antinoya had stuffed for him. He had been hurrying to read these days, but every time he read it at a loss.

On the contrary, he has almost mastered the skills of preparing spells later on, and he can basically match his spells with the effect of "spell delay".

Slowly, when the last magic word disappeared from the page, Zhao Xu had read the entire description of the specialty.

It's just that this specialty still doesn't appear on his character card panel.

Zhao Xu was not discouraged, he closed the book gently, and when he turned around, he dripped another drop of blood, and those contents could resurface again.

If he hasn't figured it out after three times, then he may have to find Antinoya to find a way.

It was almost midnight at this time, and three of the four players were sleeping in their sleeping bags.

Pastor Yoyo, on the other hand, continued to read her theological classics by a candle, without any distraction, just like a student taking the college entrance examination.

In his previous life, according to Zhao Xu's sense of responsibility, he should at least educate the other party a few words, mainly studies and games.

But now, Zhao Xu could only hope that the other party could withstand the pressure and focus on the game.

People tend to admire those who work hard for their goals.

After Zhao Xu sighed, he continued to dig out the magic scroll in his backpack - the first-level arcane "summon mount".

He was busy studying that specialty before, but looking at the recent rhythm, he might have to go to the rhythm of death on this plain.

Then he still treats his legs preferentially, and honestly remembers this spell in his heart.

Originally, these spells required 24 hours of dedicated research before they could be mastered and transcribed, but Zhao Xu possessed the ability of "Wisdom Spellcaster", and his knowledge (mystery) level and spell recognition level were both voted to level 4. He studied spells again. Not so long.

Only if luck is really bad, then you have to read it for 24 hours.

After Zhao Xu smeared his temples with ointment that stimulated the spirit and made it easier to memorize spells, he began to read the scroll.

The lamp oil under the candlelight slowly burned into light smoke, and the whole tent was also very quiet, except for the snoring of the three male players and Zhao Xu's flipping books.

Suddenly, there was a hissing sound, accompanied by the whistle and buzzing of the enemy's attack, which was urgent and sad.
