The Truth of Magic - Chapter 169
169 a chain mission
in the following period of time, zhao xu immersed himself in the collection of the entire legendary library to the point that he didn’t even want to leave.
Especially when he discovered many powerful rituals.
Although rituals were much more time-consuming than spells, it was still a rare way for low-level players to surpass their current level and obtain great power.
!!
if it wasn’t for the legendary library’s clone, which made lu duo come over personally to remind him that the time was up, zhao xu would definitely have to sleep on the floor in the library.
Then, after Zhao Xu and Lu duo confirmed how they were going to enter the library, they muttered another phrase, ” Lu duo is the cutest. they slowly left the library of legends.
According to Lu duo, he only needed to find a quiet place in the future and perform a reverse summoning ritual. Then, he would be able to project his consciousness into the space of the legendary library.
and zhao xu’s body at that time had simply gone into hiding in the spirit world.
Zhao Xu had only been on the ninth floor of the scholarly library at the time, so he didn’t have to use any complicated rituals.
In the future, unless he shouted the command after he reached the ninth floor, he would have to use the materials to set up the ritual himself.
This also meant that Zhao Xu wouldn’t be able to use this skill to help him escape in the middle of a fight.
when zhao xu returned to the obelisk, he could already feel that his way of thinking had changed.
When he left the space of the final scroll, he had obtained countless spells. At that time, all he could think of was to use spells to solve problems.
when he left the molin’s stone tablet, he was thinking about how to maximize his strength with his advanced ability.
Now that he had left the library of legends, the things that reverberated in his mind the most were the mysterious rituals and all kinds of secret knowledge.
It was as if the mysterious world of Arthur had begun to unveil itself for him at this moment.
from now on, zhao xu’s channels of obtaining mystical information were no longer limited to antonya and knowledge check skills.
after that, zhao xu went back to the obelisk to report to antonya about his learning experience that day.
after antonya heard this, she just laughed, but she didn’t explain to zhao xu what the legendary library spirit’s true form was.
Antonya handed Zhao Xu a letter instead.
Zhao Xu remembered the last time Antonya had arranged for him to give a lecture, and he had also benefited a lot from that speech.
So, Zhao Xu took Antonya’s letter and read it with great interest, only to find that it was a piece of intelligence.
It described how a satellite town near Mystra had been attacked by bandits, and the town had asked for help from Mystra.
“teacher, didn’t you say that i shouldn’t leave mystra before i reach level 5?” Zhao Xu asked.
although the satellite town was only half a day’s journey away from mistra, it was still a risk.
“I’m not asking you to take risks.” Antonya said, ” I’m asking you to go on a protection mission.
Protect?
zhao xu didn’t know how to react. he was just a level 3 wizard, so he should be the one being protected.
Why was it his turn to protect others?
“it’s called protection, but it’s actually a test.” antonya said as she looked at zhao xu.
the floating city will regularly assign special tasks to mages who focus on combat, ” Saleen said. Antonya said.
Zhao Xu also nodded.
Arthur’s degree of realism had caused a lot of controversy in the bloody aspect. It was just that the restriction act in his previous life had not been officially introduced before everyone had transmigrated.
As for many Warriors, even though they were extremely brave when fighting monsters, many of them were stunned by the blood that sprayed out when they came into contact with the monsters.
After all, not everyone was born like Zhao Xu, who had personally killed Chinese New Year pigs back in his hometown.
this time, we will arrange for twenty mages to conduct a blood test. Their task is to eliminate the targeted Bandit group, and your task is to monitor them throughout the whole process and give them a score.
Antonya said, ” at the same time, when they’re on the verge of failing their mission, you’ll be the one to take care of the rest of the bandit groups.
When Zhao Xu heard this, he finally realized that he had been promoted to an examiner and a bodyguard.
in particular, he was in charge of scoring, which represented an unusual power.
The floating city needed to be screened through tests, and it was officially planned to start training some of the people who could pass the test.
when he thought about how everyone would have to enter the real world of arthur in a year’s time, zhao xu knew that the fate of those 20 people would be decided by him.
however, after thinking about it, zhao xu decided to turn her down. ” mentor, it’s mainly because my level isn’t high enough, and it’s hard for me to handle complicated situations. ”
not to mention that I only have a level 2 invisibility spell for hiding. Even if I increase my spell caster level, it won’t help.
The duration of the invisibility spell was 1 minute per level of the caster.
and for zhao xu to follow behind most of the new wizards, it would take at least a day and a half.
it wasn’t something that he could hold up with just a few minutes of magic.
On the other hand, Zhao Xu also lacked the means to wipe out a large group of mountain bandits. He didn’t have the means to make a decisive decision when he had to show his face.
“This time, as long as you accept it, I’ll give you two corresponding items, which should be able to increase the power of your spells.” Antonya added.
When he heard this, Zhao Xu took a look at his equipment and realized that there were indeed quite a few empty slots.
“Mentor, what kind of magic equipment is it?” zhao xu couldn’t help but have a look of anticipation on his face.
after hearing zhao xu’s request for help, antonya let out a soft snort and seemed to be in a very good mood. “well, one of these is naturally a magic item that will allow you to kill a lot of bandits. the other one is a magic item that can allow you to secretly follow them.”
“if you can keep an eye on them in secret and help them deal with the bandits without revealing your identity, the two magic items will be yours.”
“if you want to expose your identity and deal with the bandits, you can choose one. if there are any casualties among the new mages, then we’ll cancel both.”
when zhao xu heard this, he understood what was going on.
this was giving him benefits.
the only difference was that he would have to do some hard work along the way.
“yes, i’ll take this mission.” zhao xu said.
zhao xu had already noticed that the two pieces of equipment that antonya had described sounded like they were very suitable for large-scale battles.
at this moment, zhao xu couldn’t help but think about the battle at fallen star lake.
at the same time, antonya started to take something out of her dimensional bag. soon, she placed a wand-like object on the table.
this is the ‘eternal wand’. It carries the fireball spell. antonya said as she watched zhao xu pick up a wand.
at the tip of the wand, there was a vortex-shaped pink crystal.
Zhao Xu was also a little surprised.
He never thought that the eternal wand, which he had just seen in the records of powerful magical items in the legendary library, would appear in front of him.
The eternal wand could only store up to Level-3 spells.
compared to an ordinary wand that could only be fired 50 times, the eternal wand had two differences.
One was that it could cast spells twice a day until the end of the world. that was why it would not run out of energy like an ordinary wand. it was just an ordinary branch without any power.
Secondly, anyone who was an arcane spellcaster could use this wand.
This also meant that Zhao Xu would only be able to use two free fireballs against the mountain bandits.
This was a test of his casting timing.
since he was now a level 3 wizard, he had access to level 3 spells that could only be cast at level 5. on the other hand, it also limited his abuse.
“Teacher, what about the other thing that can help me hide?” zhao xu asked.
At this moment, Antonya’s face lit up. well, you’ll know when you go to Mystra to hand over the information.
“Now is the time. You have to sort it out first.”
“Organize?”
when zhao xu heard this, he understood. this was to let him sort out the direction of the next mission.
Zhao Xu didn’t pay too much attention to it and just tore the seal off the letter in his hand.
he immediately pulled out the list of personnel.
When Zhao Xu saw this, he couldn’t help but laugh.
It was so coincidental that Wang Ningwei and ashvich were in this team.
now, it was zhao xu’s turn to judge the results of wang ningwei and the others ‘mission.
zhao xu also noticed that the man he had chased out of the classroom was among them.
this meant that she had fallen into his hands again, and zhao xu couldn’t help but sigh at this sort of fate.
“Teacher, then I’ll go back and prepare?” Zhao Xu asked Antonya.
“No,” she said.
at this moment, antonya looked at zhao xu and said, ” i’m going to give you your second mission now. ”
Zhao Xu was stunned. There was a mission within a mission?
“Regardless of whether you annihilate the bandits or not, on the afternoon of the fourth day, you, Ning Wei, and asvich must hurry to the ‘carrion beast pit’ marked on the map. When you’re there, there will naturally be someone to guide you to your next mission.” Antonya said.
When Zhao Xu heard this, his clear train of thought was suddenly thrown into confusion. It was as if the mission at the end was the most important thing.
However, the book ” 3000 mysterious places in Arthur ” wasn’t here, so he couldn’t take it out to check.
“teacher, what can we get from that hole?” zhao xu asked, hitting the nail on the head.
“well, it’s just that i can get an additional specialty,’iron will’. it’s a prerequisite for incantation gestures.”
