The Truth of Magic

Chapter 153: Any spell (2/3)

"Isn't this a bit exaggerated?" Leian stood in the shadows and looked at the door of No. 91 Forum.

Under the influence of the listening spell, he listened to every word of the spell structures described by Zhao Xu in the forum.

With the talent of Leian Jiuhuan Mage, he didn't even need to find out the spell model that Zhao Xu sketched on the whiteboard, he already had a pretty good guess in his mind.

Naturally, he immediately saw how Taxi, the level 2 mage, had instant enlightenment and was upgraded to a level 3 mage.

Leian felt that what Zhao Xu said was not so earth-shattering.

How can it be like giving a lecture by the goddess of magic, allowing the listeners to be directly promoted on the spot

Standing next to Leian was Antinoya.

She obviously didn't think much of Leian, and had always kept a certain distance from him.

However, after hearing Leian's question, Antinoya still explained: "In his understanding, spells are one-sided, isolated and static. Now that a low-level mage breaks his understanding, he naturally Barriers are broken and then escalated.”

"No, what you're saying is that it's useless for a top mage like me to explain this to him, and it has to be explained to him by a rookie like Zhong Xia?"

"Isn't this a bit deliberate?" Leian said unfairly.

"Because you senior mages who are just going along with the situation cannot understand the mentality of ordinary mages who are struggling to climb on the edge of the cliff."

Antinoya glanced at Leian with contempt: "Tell him, he will only think that you are so talented that you can do anything. Only a second- or third-level mage like Zhong Xia can break his illusion. Moreover, you What kind of senior mage do you think he is?"

Leian was unable to refute what Antinoya said.

But he could only curl his lips, you, the eldest lady, are the most successful mage in Mystra, okay? ���

It took Zhao Xu more than two hours to finish lecturer Bloan's lecture notes, and he felt thoroughly enjoyed the whole process.

Perhaps everyone has the mentality of being a teacher deep down in his heart.

If Zhao Xu did not awaken the ability to master knowledge during the day, then he must be talking about this material at this moment in connection with mystical knowledge.

His focus will tend to be on the origin and development of various spells, which is why Lecturer Bloan can stretch the lecture notes to dozens of pages.

But Zhao Xu has now gained that ability, and this speech has become an opportunity for him to master his spell list.

Every time he mentioned the structure of spells, he was actually re-examining his own thinking.

Most mages only master a dozen or even a few first-level spells.

Zhao Xuguang has mastered hundreds of first-level spells, and more than a thousand second-level spells.

With this level of accumulation, his spell vision far exceeds that of ordinary mages.

And Zhao Xu found that after he finished explaining, many people in the audience were looking at him eagerly, waiting for him to reveal more secrets of the spell.

Although everyone could not deduce the entire spell model from the simple structures that Zhao Xu drew on the whiteboard, this kind of explanation also enhanced their knowledge and lowered the threshold for everyone to learn spells in the future.

"I feel like Zhongxia is a lot stronger." Wang Ningwei whispered to Eswig.

"Just upgrade to level 3 mage, won't you transform to this point?" Eswig was also a little confused and looked at Zhao Xu on the stage. For her who likes to know all kinds of spells, Zhao Xu at this moment is like It's like there's a light behind it.

"The main reason is that ordinary high-level mages won't delve into these low-level spells over and over again, and they don't have the patience to explain them to us." Wang Ningwei said in Eswig's ear.

At this time, Zhao Xu looked at the audience, recalled the steps of a normal speech, and simply said: "That's it for the preliminary explanation. The next step is the question and answer session. If you have any questions, you can raise your hands."

Immediately, dozens of people in the audience raised their hands.

Zhao Xu didn't think much and pointed to a female mage who raised her hand fastest based on his feeling.

After being signaled by Zhao Xu to stand up, the female mage said with surprise on her face: "Thank you for bringing such a lively, unique and interesting experience to us, the mage apprentices who have just started to learn magic and are still struggling with it." Speech, let me—"

Zhao Xu quickly waved his hand and said, "Short the story, let's talk about the problem directly."

"Oh, I just want to ask Mr. Mage how to deal with the disadvantage that the mage needs to prepare spells and seems to be a bit passive." The female mage said softly, looking at Zhao Xu with an expectant look on her face.

After Zhao Xu heard this question, he pondered for a while.

Many mage textbooks have already provided various answers to this question.

Doing good intelligence work and planning is the easiest way, and then there are specialties and even various spells that can be modified.

For example, the simplest way to use the wish spell is to simulate spells below level nine.

"What an unqualified compliment. That female mage flattered her so much that she slapped her on the leg." Eswig whispered to Wang Ningwei, "She wanted Zhong Xia to say the spell 'Lari Arcana Conversion Technique'. She could even show off. But she didn't expect that Zhong Xia on the stage was not a level 11 mage at all."

Larry's Arcane Conversion is a sixth-level spell.

It can transform a spell prepared by a mage into a spell mastered by another mage.

It is equivalent to using a sixth-level arcane spell to change a prepared spell.

"Don't underestimate Zhong Xia." Wang Ningwei told Eswig with a mysterious smile.

At this time, Zhao Xu, who was on the stage, thought for a while and decided to tease the female mage, and said directly: "Well, just do your intelligence work well."

Zhao Xu's answer is the most official and least technical answer, equivalent to a formulaic reply.

"Um..." The female mage who was asked the question suddenly became embarrassed.

She didn't expect that Zhao Xu didn't follow the normal plot.

As long as Zhao Xu comes up with a plan that is relatively unfamiliar to everyone, or even a little less popular, she will naturally cooperate with her and give out a surprised look, and then stare at Zhao Xu with bright eyes.

In this way, after the speech was over, she could go forward and discuss the answers just given with Zhao Xu.

Who would have thought that the lecturer on the stage would kill the problem in just one sentence.

At this time, Zhao Xu suddenly took a few steps forward, crossed the podium in front, looked at the mage apprentices and novice mage who were listening quietly under the stage, and said, "It's like, I specially prepared the spells you plan to ask today."

The female mage who stood up had her eyes lit up and she immediately reacted.

She knew that this was Zhao Xu's opportunity for her to cooperate, but she didn't expect that she would meet a master today who knew how to create opportunities by herself.

The female mage immediately started thinking about what spells Zhao Xu would prepare.

It's just that Zhao Xu just talked about at least dozens of spells, many of which the wizards have never heard of, and there is no special emphasis or hint at all.

The female mage gritted her teeth and couldn't care less. She planned to directly gamble on "invisibility".

But just as she opened her mouth, someone in the audience suddenly said: "Transformation."

As soon as this sound came out, Tai, who was expecting it, couldn't help but burst into uproarious laughter.

The second-level spell "Transformation", as the first level of the core four transformations, has stopped countless people, even low-level mages like them have heard about it.

Many mages without the talent for transformation, even if they can cast sixth-level spells, are still powerless against the second-level "Transformation Technique".

Not to mention whether Zhao Xu was prepared or not, even if he prepared this spell, there was a high chance that the spell would fail.

However, Zhao Xu on the stage just snapped his fingers.

He was indeed unprepared for the transformation spell, but his "uncanny foresight" had reserved free spell slots, and he could also rely on his "multitalented spell caster" to merge two first-level spells into one second-level spell and release it.

This is why he said this deliberately at the beginning. No matter what spell the apprentice in the audience mentioned, he could cast it as long as it was a first-level or second-level spell.

This is Zhao Xu's plug-in.

Suddenly, all the apprentices looked at Zhao Xu who was casting the spell in disbelief, wondering if he was serious

Or maybe he just wanted to use a first-level "disguise technique" to fool them.

Zhao Xu's figure began to get shorter, and at the same time, the details of his face were reshaped bit by bit, slowly transforming towards the appearance of another man.

The "Transformation Technique" can transform into a creature of another race with a similar size. It can also transform into the appearance of another human being. This is an extremely powerful disguise effect that even people who are not very familiar with can't reveal it. .

When Zhao Xu's final transformation spell was completed, a large group of people in the audience roared loudly, looking at Zhao Xu and the apprentice who made the sound in disbelief.

Zhao Xu transformed into the apprentice who was sitting on the stage and asked him to use the "Transformation Technique".

The two looked like twins.

After seeing that everyone was convinced by him, Zhao Xu snapped his fingers, canceled the transformation spell, and slowly changed back to his original appearance.

Zhao Xu also directly motioned to the female mage to sit down, and then continued to motion for people to raise their hands.

It's just that most of the next few apprentices were just joking, asking Zhao Xu to perform the spells they requested.

"Wall of Smoke", "Mage Tremor", "Dimension Jump", "Master's Touch" and many other spells that most people have never heard of were displayed in Zhao Xu's hands.

The eyes of the apprentices in the audience gradually changed from expectation to shock.

Only those who were in the game knew how incredible it was for Zhao Xu to do what he did.

"This lecturer is actually a warlock, right?"

"How on earth did you sneak in? How can a warlock master so many spells?"

"So it turns out that a senior mage can do whatever he wants?"

Seeing the discussion in the audience, Zhao Xu put down the handouts and left after seeing that the presentation was almost complete.

Later, when everyone came to the stage, they realized that the handout in Zhao Xu's hand was full of scribblings, and the ink hadn't even dried yet.

Obviously this handout has just been processed.

In the most obvious line, the lecturer's name "Bloan" was erased with a pen, and the name was rewritten on it, but it was also erased.
