The Truth of Magic - Chapter 215
215 Fireball opens a path (2/3)
‘Radiant armor’ was a second-circle spell among holy magic.
Zhao Xu had once used the sacred Level 3 spell ” Hammer of Justice ” to kill the pit fiend four times in a row.
On one hand, it was because his opponent’s power had been weakened when he appeared in Arthur’s main material plane. On the other hand, it was because Zhao Xu was relying on the godly item, the book of ten thousand spells, which allowed him to deal enough damage to spell casters who were around level 20.
however, none of these could cover up the strength of the “holy magic.”
Brilliant armor created a huge ring of light that surrounded Zhao Xu. It made his entire body glow with a layer of defensive power. If he was hit by any external force, it would turn into an extremely hard armor.
the mage armor could provide a mage with a full 4th tier armor defense.
Radiant armor’s duration was round-level (one round per caster’s level), and its effect was to provide a Tier 5 armor bonus, which was already comparable to the defense of a breastplate.
At the same time, he would also burst out with a light effect similar to the Daybreak spell. this kind of strong light was usually fine, but once someone tried to attack, they would suffer an attack punishment close to level-4.
in this exchange, the radiant armor provided him with a total of nine levels of defense. even the fear lightning binding might not be able to break through zhao xu’s defense and cause him any damage.
more importantly, the only casting component of this spell was the ” sacrifice “.
that was why zhao xu didn’t need to chant any incantations or perform any actions. he only needed to pay 1-2 points of strength to complete this spell.
immediately, the giant scythe-wielding “fear trembled binding spirit” lost all its power. the bright sunlight was like a heavy weight on binding spirit’s body.
It felt an incomparable sense of fear, and it suddenly turned around and fled in all directions.
Just like that, Zhao Xu watched as the giant scythe that the man had been holding fell to the ground, and his heart trembled.
a magic weapon!
even the simplest +1 magic weapon would cost more than 2000 gold coins.
In the entire Arthur community, there were only a few who had A +1 magical weapon.
after zhao xu used his non-hostile radiant armor to chase away the powerful fear binding spirit, the ten or so mummies seemed to be frightened as well, and they backed away like a tide.
Even though they didn’t have the weakness of being Afraid of Sunlight, Zhao Xu’s entire body felt like it was covered in a giant light bulb, and the pressure was making them feel uncomfortable.
Or it could be said that they already knew that when they tried to attack Zhao Xu, they would be suppressed by those rays of light, which would lower the success rate of their attacks.
Zhao Xu quickly walked over and saw that his surroundings were as bright as day. All the darkness, even if it was caused by magic, had been dispelled by him.
a netherworld scythe magic weapon was lying quietly on the skeleton on the ground. the weapon was still looming as if it was a projection.
Zhao Xu wasn’t so excited that he wanted to pick it up right away. Instead, he first used the golem goggles in front of him to identify this magical weapon.
no one could tell if there was any curse on this magic weapon.
for example, one would be shocked or cursed to death if they picked it up.
this effect was meaningless to the undead because they were immune to it. However, to living people like them, it was a curse that could kill them.
Hence, some evil necromancers liked to put this curse item on their undead army so that their enemies would be disgusted when they picked up the equipment.
[ +1 hell scythe, portal key. ]
+1 hell scythe-zhao xu already knew this in his heart.
but what the hell was the teleportation gate key behind it?
Zhao Xu looked at the teleport portal key that his invisible servant had just picked up in the other corner with a surprised expression.
What was going on?
at this moment, zhao xu turned around and took advantage of the time that he had bought from the aftershock of the lightning bolt tying spirit to quickly use his spells to identify the teleport portal key.
when the light from the detection spell reflected back onto his goggles, zhao xu’s face started to turn dark.
The key in front of him was indeed a teleportation key, but the test result clearly stated that it was a teleportation key to the ” positive energy plane.
Holding it would give 30HP of healing per round, and after more than 10 rounds, it would trigger the Otherworld teleportation spell on it, directly leading to the positive energy plane.
this wasn’t the token key to the teleportation gate on the high platform. it was simply an item that could teleport people instantly.
it was a pity that its 30HP healing effect could only last for ten rounds before it would automatically activate its teleportation. and at this moment, there were only nine rounds left.
when zhao xu used the spell ” command the undead ” to control the skeleton to pick up the key, the key sensed that there was an undead creature there, so it exploded with a wave of energy that instantly destroyed the undead creature.
at the same time, it also pushed the time back by one round.
With this key in hand, Zhao Xu wouldn’t have to worry about the damage from the negative energy field for at least ten rounds, and he could easily kill these undead creatures.
even though zhao xu had managed to scare off two waves of trembles and mummies, the spell had been in effect for six rounds and he didn’t want the binding spirit to come back again, so he didn’t cancel the radiant armor spell.
it was equivalent to having such a big light bulb on his head all the time.
naturally, the skeletons at the outermost circle began to approach him, slowly forming a circle.
This was also the reason why Zhao Xu wanted to hurry up and appraise the item.
but when he saw the difference between the two keys, zhao xu’s mind was no longer on skeleton square. he was now deep in thought.
why did they make such a deliberate arrangement?
In the beginning, the skeleton was defeated by the positive energy key on the spot.
After using the same undying shroud, positive energy would also cause damage to Zhao Xu. So, Zhao Xu didn’t take the key in time and also died on the spot after taking 30 hp.
This positive energy plane key was targeted at people like him who used the shapeshifting spell ” undying shroud.
The first wave of five consecutive damage spells was targeted at those who used ” negative energy damage resistance.
The true knowledge spell was targeted at people who used the second-circle spell, ” disguise as an undead.
Originally, he would still be hurt by the negative energy field after using that spell, but he could deceive the undead creatures into thinking that he was one of them. However, this field had the effect of ” truth-seeing “, so the illusion was useless.
at this point, even though the army around him was slowly pressing forward, zhao xu had already started to think things through.
in the first checkpoint, it used the exemption to remind him that ” nothing more than five “. however, he had learned about this in advance in the ” legendary library. ”
and the second obstacle was to tell him to be careful of everything?
all methods would be targeted?
This made him extremely confused.
in the end, zhao xu gave up on his short-term guess. he just knelt down and picked up the two-handed military weapon, the giant scythe.
Zhao Xu’s job class didn’t have the ” military weapon Mastery ” feature, so when he used this weapon, his attack power would be greatly reduced because he wasn’t familiar with it.
Then, Zhao Xu walked over to the positive energy key. The moment he reached out and picked it up, he immediately removed the undying barrier around him.
[ adventurer zhongxia, you are connecting and teleporting to the positive energy plane. You will receive 30 rapid healing per round. Nine rounds (54 seconds) countdown. ]
Rapid healing 30 meant that he would recover 30HP every round. As long as Zhao Xu didn’t get killed instantly, that meant that he would be able to survive for the next 10 rounds.
and zhao xu didn’t plan on teleporting to the plane of positive energy, so when the ninth round came, he would definitely throw away this one-time use magic item.
but after zhao xu took off the protection of the undead shroud, the undead creatures that were hesitating and walking towards him suddenly surged towards him like a wave.
They were racing against time to pounce on him, the only living person on the field.
at this point, zhao xu didn’t think that the +1 hell was the only thing on the field that was so rare. no one could guess whether or not these skeleton soldiers were hiding some sort of mysterious magical weapon.
After Zhao Xu removed his undying shroud, he didn’t feel restricted at all. He immediately ran towards the rope that was used to drop the platform.
At this moment, a dense crowd of skeleton soldiers swarmed in front of him for various reasons. There were even a few mummies among them.
zhao xu immediately raised the eternal wand of the fireball spell in his hand and shouted, ” “Fireball.”
suddenly, a small ball of fire shot out from his palm and landed six or seven meters behind the sea of skeletons.
The fireball was a long-range spell. Basically, he could throw it anywhere he wanted in this field.
Just like that, the skeletons that were charging towards Zhao Xu with their weapons in their hands suddenly felt a wave of scorching fire coming from behind them.
the weak fireball exploded after it landed on the ground.
The entire space was engulfed by the hot and violent waves of fire. The entire area within a six-meter radius was filled with the wailing of skeletons.
The skeleton’s body had been barely maintained by the power of the soul Flame, but after being hit by this powerful fireball, its body exploded into pieces.
in the end, a path that had been paved by a mountain of corpses and a sea of flames that had been created by the fireball spell appeared in front of zhao xu.
