The Truth of Magic - Chapter 518

518 A Level-8 ability, a new storm

After midnight, Zhao Xu and Serus still couldn’t resist their sleepiness. They secretly cleaned up the room where they had just been interrogated and washed away the ashes that the vampire had turned into. Then, they went back to the hotel next door to sleep.

At this moment, Zhao Xu’s eyes were already starting to look like they were going to roll up.

however, he still splashed some water on his face to wake himself up. then, he sat back in the hotel room that would be his living place for a while.

!!
Ever since he’d received the ” Howard’s luxurious bedding ” from Antonya, he’d been able to sleep for an hour on the bedding every two days, which was equivalent to eight hours of rest.

it was just that everyone hadn’t transmigrated yet, so they couldn’t really help zhao xu’s physical body recover on earth. It was barely passable in the game, and it wouldn’t affect his spell recovery time the next day.

Zhao Xu was sitting in front of his desk. There was a roll of blank goatskin in front of him, and there was a goose feather pen hanging on the ink bottle in front of him.

The oil lamp on the table slowly scattered the warm light, dyeing the alchemy tool set, magic material bag, and thick stack of magic books in a smoky yellow color.

In the middle of the night, other than the faint snoring and the rustling of leaves outside the window, there were also the occasional pitter-patter sounds coming from Zhao Xu’s desk. It was his automatic memory quill pen, and he was using the remaining spell slots he had for the day to copy spells on the scrolls.

Zhao Xu went back to Starfall town. Basically, all he had to do was to consolidate his level 8 abilities and spend some time on his remaining skill points.

After choosing the next key advanced class for Arcana, he would be able to read the notebook and reach the invincible level 9.

zhao xu was looking at the goatskin parchment on the table. it was so new that it was shining and translucent. he gently wrote the words ” supreme magic proficiency ” on it in the dragon language.

This was the third and final level of his ability after level 8, when he was in Supreme magic sculpting.

unlike other advancements that had levels 5 and 10, a supreme magic sculptor reached their peak at level 3, and there was no longer a level 4 after that.

therefore, he could continue to advance to level 4 as a guardian of runes in the divine arts, but he had to consider new advancements in the arcane arts.

as for the super magic proficiency ability, it once again showed zhao xu just how insane the advanced super magic sculptor ability was.

Compared to this advanced Level-2 ability, which could provide additional metamagic abilities, metamagic mastery was extremely powerful. However, due to the level 1 ability, metamagic control, it had accumulated a little.

Mastery of Supreme magic could reduce the cost of Zhao Xu’s Supreme magic by one fold.

Among the wizard specialties, there happened to be another specialty that was completely identical to this ability, and that was the legendary Specialty ” improved Supreme magic.

And so, when Zhao Xu was at level 8, he received a legendary ability.

In the future, he would only need to increase his spell by three levels with instant cast. In exchange for Supreme magic control, he would also lose one point of attribute damage.

The Level-10 abilities of the incantation Guardian and incantation envoy were similar to this.

But for Zhao Xu, who was now immune to elemental damage and could cast spells whenever he wanted, it didn’t mean as much anymore.

But Zhao Xu also emptied his mind and body to slowly feel the pulse of this power in his body. He was trying to get used to it.

as for the level 3 ability of the guardian of the spell, it was the same as the level 1 “extension specific spell.”

He could choose another spell, and in the future, he could transform a higher circle spell he had prepared into this specific spell. It was better than nothing.

Zhao Xu’s current system of abilities, combined with his specialties, made him quite well-rounded in every aspect.

For example, special extension magic was a very powerful spell for other mages, but for Zhao Xu, it was almost as if he didn’t get any improvements at all.

Just as he was thinking about this, Zhao Xu’s gaze suddenly fell on the level 4 spell, Transfiguration, that he had prepared.

The first transformation’s second level was “body transformation,” and the second transformation’s fourth level was “shape-shifting.”

It could be said that the appearance of the shapeshifting spell had opened the door to power for all mages.

According to what Antonya had said, the strongest core spell was the level 9 spell, ” body transformation.

The strength of this spell was solely dependent on his understanding of the monsters in this world.

Back then, after he had separated from the smuggling caravan, Zhao Xu had met the gold dragon cainphas, who Antonya had entrusted him with.

At that time, the Golden Dragon cainphas had explained to Zhao Xu how to use the nine rings to transform into different forms. He had even demonstrated to Zhao Xu how to turn into several extremely powerful creatures.

Even though its Golden Dragon body was much more powerful, it was still a Golden Dragon.

Among them, the ancient gold dragon cainphas even specifically told Zhao Xu about the contents of the four-circle transformation spell.

Perhaps in his eyes, this was the first key spell that Zhao Xu had obtained.

The Transfiguration spell was a touch spell that lasted for minutes.

Zhao Xu could use a shapeshifting spell to turn a living creature into another living creature. Aside from the original race, the types of creatures that could cross-race were limited to: Monsters, animals, Dragons, demons, Giants, humanoid creatures, magic beasts, humanoid monsters, mud monsters, plants, and insects.

The health dice of the new form was determined by the lower level of the target and the caster, with 15HD as the upper limit.

However, he would be able to obtain new strength, agility, and vitality. At the same time, he would also be able to master special attacks.

However, supernatural abilities, spell-like abilities, and supernatural abilities could not be obtained. Only the physical change of the ninth-circle could break through and obtain ” supernatural abilities.

Zhao Xu knew this very well, but he was already strong enough.

For example, in some special situations where Zhao Xu wanted to be immune to poison, paralysis, shock, or Transfiguration, he could transform into a mud monster and obtain their racial talents. For example, if he wanted to gain fire immunity, he just had to transform into the corresponding fire subspecies.

Of course, it could also transform into a Mount and fly in the air with its partner to engage in guerrilla warfare.

This was especially so for Zhao Xu, who was a creature from another world because he came from earth. That was why he could still transform into a creature from another world even after he transformed.

The environment was no longer an obstacle to his progress.

Just as he was painting and thinking about the next scene where the Transfiguration spell would be applied …

In the originally quiet night sky, a scream suddenly rang out. It was mournful and sharp, as if it carried an unbelievable wail.

Zhao Xu’s neighboring doors also started to rumble.

It was obvious that his companions had also been awakened by this cry and were all upgrading their clothes.

zhao xu sighed. he looked at the quill pen that was still writing down notes and put on the cloak of stars. he was wearing the great sage robe underneath, so he couldn’t take it off for even a second.

When he walked out into the corridor, Vivian and the White Dragon had already put on their basic equipment. Antonya was also fully dressed, and it was obvious that she had used magic to put on her clothes.

“Let’s go down and take a look?” Zhao Xu asked.

“Go on.”

Antonya nodded and said, ” there was an accident at the hotel you were staying at. You had to resolve it no matter what.

They immediately followed the curious gazes of the surrounding people and squeezed through the crowd. Finally, they saw a dead man lying on the ground with a pale face. A woman was lying on his body and crying in pain.

Zhao Xu looked at the bodies that didn’t disappear for a long time and understood that something had happened to the residents of Starfall town in Arthur.

with that thought in mind, he slowly stood in front of the corpse. the owner of the corpse was a man in his thirties. his hands were rough and he had a beard.

But Zhao Xu quickly noticed the two teeth marks on his neck.

Antonya also glanced at him and yawned. She sent him a telepathic message and said, ” you’re the one who caused this, so you should settle it yourself. I’m going to sleep. Your skin will definitely get worse if you wake up in the middle of the night every day.”

Was it another vampire’s accomplice? the opponent had seen his companion’s death and followed him here?

Zhao Xu, who had watched many episodes of Detective Conan in an instant, was like Sherlock Holmes in a detective novel. He scanned the crowd around him with great vigilance.

The time it took for everyone to get close to the scream was too short.

It was the same even for the possible service personnel.

If he was the vampire who had just launched an attack, then it was entirely possible that he was still at the scene, looking at them with a mocking gaze as a group of blind flies continued to fly around.

In an instant, Zhao Xu made two simple hand gestures and secretly completed the casting of the spell and activated the ring of silence to cast a spell.

He invisibly cast a first-circle spell, “detect undead.

Zhao Xu’s eyes lit up as he scanned through everything that was happening in the arena.

If pale dawn was truly seeking death, he would have no choice but to take action and uproot everything he had in Starfall town.
