The Truth of Magic

Chapter 120: The Road to the Dossier (10,000 words completed)

The next day, Zhao Xu saw Antinoya again in her office on the obelisk.

At this time, Zhao Xu's mood had recovered a lot, and at the same time, his sharp edge had completely restrained.

Zhao Xu died after the black dragon's breath. When he traveled back to ten years ago, his heart was confused and drifting.

Even in the deepest part of his heart, he was completely unsure whether this was a dream of his.

Maybe after ten years of hard work, he traveled back to the day when the game server was launched, and was forever trapped in this ten-year cycle.

It wasn't until what he experienced yesterday that he started to drift with the crowd and finally woke up.

There are some things in life that are worth pursuing at all costs.

"It seems that you have gained quite a lot this time." Unusually, Antinoya sat on the sofa for the first time, reading the daily newspaper with her legs crossed, obviously in a good mood.

Zhao Xu noticed that the other party's hood seemed to have changed its style, and the shadow underneath was no longer so deep, allowing him to more or less see the outline of Antinoya's fair face.

"Oh, I have something to give you first." Zhao Xu took out the "booklet" given to him by Master Lane from his convenience bag.

"This booklet was given to you when I entered a mysterious mine near Zhongyu Forest and met a mage who claimed to be Ryan."

"What he means is to give you, mentor, the right to choose first."

Zhao Xu also sat down at this time and slowly recalled Master Lane's words.

"Sentimental." Antinoya waved her hand gently.

The power of the "Mage's Hand" grabbed the booklet and flew it directly into the incense stove in the corner of the living room. After a while, the booklet, forced by the fire, began to curl up, smoke, and become charred black.

Zhao Xu didn't expect this result at all.

In Antinoya's eyes, the pamphlet that Tucker didn't even risk his life to get from him was probably not as valuable as a stick of incense.

"Teacher, do you not accept what Master Lane has to offer?"

At this time, Zhao Xu couldn't help but guess that Master Lane might not have just offended Antinoya in a small way.

It’s enough that humans on Earth in previous lives received the “Legacy of the Yiter Dynasty”. After all, this thing failed to save the Yiter Dynasty in the end. At best, it was just a restoration fund left to future generations.

But the secret that pointed to Ernest, the king of arcana, was, to put it mildly, something that even the gods would covet.

Arthur's gods, except for a few powerful gods, most of them do not have their own personal emotions. They have been integrated with their own godhead, priesthood and camp, and to some extent, they have become abstract. The symbol is general.

Divinity is inherently a process of stripping away humanity.

So this can also arouse greed, and one can imagine how valuable it is.

Antinoya stretched out his finger and pointed at Zhao Xu.

This action immediately made Zhao Xu feel excited.

It wasn't that he was attracted by the green fingers, but that this action was the standard starting position for the seventh-level instant death spell "Finger of Death".

This spell-casting move is so famous that Arthur's children like to use it to point at each other when playing.

It's just that children are playing around. Antinoya's finger, not to mention the finger of death, may cause the ninth-level spell "Law: Death".

However, more than ten seconds passed, and there was still no change in Zhao Xu's body.

"tutor?"

Zhao Xu said helplessly that he suddenly felt that after being separated for more than a week, Antinoya seemed to have returned to the girlish style she had when she first met him, and started to like playing pranks.

"Ah?" At this time, Antinoya said, "Oh, I just saw this briefing, and I was still thinking about how the finger of death successfully broke through a mage's protective barrier and successfully killed the opponent. of."

"It's really strange. Now Arthur's level as an ordinary mage has dropped so much compared to before the Age of Disaster? He can actually kill with just one finger of death."

Listening to Antinoya's complaints, Zhao Xu also wanted to complain back. The Seventh Ring Mage is no longer ordinary, okay

"Teacher, I just asked you if you don't accept what Master Lane has to offer."

Although Zhao Xu knew that it was not good to ask repeatedly, he felt strange that this important booklet was burned like this.

"You think it's hard to accept that what you have worked so hard to bring back was burned by me, right?" Suddenly Antinoya directly controlled a heavy magic book to fly into her hands.

"It's not hard." Zhao Xu said with traditional politeness.

"It's not hard work. I can see you even changing your body shape." Antinoya joked.

"Mentor, that's because of their hard work, not mine." Zhao Xu said.

Now that I think about it, he used the ninth-level spell "Shape Change" attached to his back in one breath.

At the same time, he was still fighting with fists and swords throughout the whole process.

It's cool, but it's too expensive.

The ninth-level spell, Light Scroll, costs 3,800 gold coins. Ordinary people want to cast it, but the skill level of "Use Magic Device" must be high enough. You can imagine how much effort Antinoya put into this spell of his.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu felt a little more moved.

"Well, actually, that idiot Ryan just thinks too much."

After Antinoya turned the book in her hand, she finally recalled her detailed evaluation of Ryan.

Zhao Xu was much stimulated by Antinoya, but he didn't feel too excited.

"Fool?"

"Yes, he thought he was the only smart person in the floating city, and he was the only one who could see through the world. Back then, he thought that we dignitaries occupied the power of the headquarters of the Mage Association, so he didn't look down on us at all. But the goddess didn't look at it either. If you fall in love with him, your path to the priesthood will be ruined."

"After all these years, he must have been closed off for a long time, so he began to think on his own, thinking that we old people and young people are actually puppets of the association, used to neutralize private conflicts."

"So I said he was a fool. From the past until now, he has guessed everything wrong."

Antinoya's voice was crisp and echoed in Zhao Xu's cochlea.

Zhao Xu vaguely understood, but it was the first time that he discovered that Antinoya called him a powerful person and an old man and a young man. He couldn't help but curiously asked: "Teacher, are you also from a mage family?"

Warlocks are looked down upon by mages because their power comes from blood rather than learning.

It's just that when the mages occupied high positions, they also played the same trick. If it was not convenient for them to accept their own nephews as apprentices, they would exchange apprentices with another mage who had a nephew.

Slowly, it has become a tradition that the mage comes from a mage family.

Just like the collapse of Ernest's Austrian Empire.

"Oh, that extremely nosy Ryan, didn't I tell you my full name?"

Zhao Xu suddenly became interested and began to recall the surnames of various giants in the Mage Association.

"Forget it, let me tell you, Iter Antinoya."

Suddenly, countless thunders flashed through Zhao Xu's mind, and he finally understood why Ryan asked him to hand over the pamphlet to Antinoya.

It is said that the legacy of the Yiter dynasty is in the hands of the descendants of the Yiter family, that is, in the hands of Antinoya

In previous lives, humans on earth were able to struggle through the initial lack of resources. It can be said that all humans on earth later were benefited from the Ittel family.

Zhao Xu didn't expect that on the first day he entered the game, he met a descendant of the Iter family.

"Teacher, so you are the last princess?" At this time, Zhao Xu couldn't help but tease.

"Who told you that I am the last princess?" Antinoya said lightly. "But I burned that booklet because I knew it was a trap."

"If you want to participate in this matter, wait until you are at least Level 5. Then you will be eligible to listen, but only to listen."

As soon as Antinoya finished speaking, her focus turned to Ryan.

"That fool Ryan also sought medical treatment in a hurry. Thinking that Ernest could get his soul back from Astimus, he thought that the other party would also have such a method in his secret treasure. I didn't even think about it. It’s just something that others can do with just a face. The question is, does he have that face?”

At this time, Antinoya did not continue the topic. She stood up directly and stuffed the books back on the bookshelf. "Tell me about your adventures during this time."

After hearing these words, Zhao Xu recounted everything from leaving Hurricane City, to meeting the Druid, to entering the mine, and finally from Crescent Town to transforming and killing enemies in the heavy rain. .

"That's okay. Although you rely on three methods to constantly commit suicide and get into dangerous situations. But considering that you have already changed your body, it would be too much of a loss if you don't go out for a while. It's just that the level you are exposed to is too low. If you dared to attack Ryan, who is at least eight rings, without saying a word, then I would give you an advantage."

Hearing these words, Zhao Xu gritted his teeth. If he could gain the spell-casting ability of the corresponding creature due to the shape change, then he would dare to take the initiative to fight against it.

The problem is that he transformed into the Seraph of the Seraph God, and he does not have the level 20 priest spellcasting ability of the Seraph of the Seraph God.

"Forget it, I shouldn't have too high demands on you. If your demands are the same as mine, doesn't it mean that you are as smart as me?"

"Yes, yes, my intelligence is only one-third of yours, mentor." Zhao Xu quickly flattered, "But it is indeed thanks to your ninth-level spell, mentor."

Suddenly Zhao Xu still recalled the state after changing his body, but it was a pity that after the killing, he was in a sense of emptiness.

Otherwise, according to the 25th level caster level set by Antinoya, and the duration of the spell is 10 minutes per caster level, he can definitely play for 4 hours.

"Oh, that's nothing. The Temporary Spell feat allows the mage to instill spells into willing creatures. Now that you have reached level 2 and have 2 HD, you can instill two spells at the same time."

"Don't you have to spend money?" Zhao Xu asked in a low voice.

"Yes, multiply the spell level by the caster level and then get 100 gold coins. This should be the market price." Antinoya said lightly.

9x25x100=22500Gp.

After calculating this formula, Zhao Xu suddenly felt a little distressed.

He finally understood the price of having fun.

"Are you distressed?" Antinoya suddenly saw the pain on Zhao Xu's face and asked curiously.

"Yes." Zhao Xu agreed.

"That's my money, why do you feel bad?" Antinoya tilted her head slightly and looked at Zhao Xu, feeling a little confused.

She didn't even bother to count the piles of gold coins inherited from the Yiter dynasty.

Not to mention that she can use the wishing technique to make gold coins, but she can't be too presumptuous.

"And if you want, I can get you two more rounds later. I have more than thirty on my body." Antinoya showed off happily.

As expected, he was a legendary mage in his thirties.

After hearing Antinoya's true level at once, Zhao Xu was secretly speechless.

"But now that you are at level 2, we can arrange dossier courses for you. Don't worry, there are only a few new abilities you need to master. You will know the other basics."

"But this time, don't leave Mystra unless you have level 5. You will be embarrassed by being too dishonest."

"Teacher, shall we take the portal?" Zhao Xu remembered at this moment that on his first day in the floating city, the black-robed mage told him that another girl with the awakened scroll scholar profession was sitting in another portal.

"No need." Antinoya said in a brisk tone.

"Aren't you going to a special training place?"

"What are you thinking about?" Antinoya, who was wearing a cloak, looked at Zhao Xu with wide eyes.

"I told you from the beginning that I am a dual elite mage and a dossier with potential points."
