After hearing Antinoya's words, Zhao Xu knew that the legendary organization's unique abilities were finally opening up to him.
Compared with the expertise and professions learned at the beginning, they are inherently fair to everyone, and they will not be unable to obtain expertise or upgrade just because there is no way.
Even after Zhao Xu has mastered it to a certain level, he can teach others those advanced and specialized abilities.
However, the test account abilities that he got when he opened the server, such as "potential points" and "double elites", are things that others cannot copy and he cannot teach them.
Like everyone, level feats are fixed every three levels after first level and cannot be changed.
Unless the account itself is special, the total amount of expertise is determined, and you can only obtain additional expertise by relying on professional abilities.
Now, according to Antinoya, it means that in that "scavenger's cave", they can gain additional spirituality and obtain a designated "specialty".
The specialty ability of "Iron Will" allows the owner to increase the owner's will save by 2 levels.
When Zhao Xu first used the "Protection from Evil" spell, he also received a level 2 resistance increase in saving throws.
Can be useful against spells and the supernatural abilities of some monsters.
When they met the ghost that night, the Maple Leaf team had this specialty, and they would not be so easily knocked down by the ghost's "Colorful Jet".
At that time, Zhao Xu also relied on the will save, which was the natural advantage of his mage profession, to succeed in the save.
Otherwise, if he also falls, everyone can line up to resurrect and return to the city.
Will saves increase as the career level increases. A level 20 mage has a level 12 Will save bonus.
When Zhao Xu was at level 1, he had level 2 professional will immunity. Now at level 3, his Will save has been raised to level 3.
Paired with his +1 modifier to Wisdom, this also increases the Will save bonus by 1 step.
Therefore, Zhao Xu's current will immunity is level 4, and generally low-difficulty challenges that test his will are not a big problem for him.
"Iron Will", a specialty that can be upgraded to the second level, is definitely not worth learning specifically, but now for Zhao Xu, it is like picking it up for free.
In particular, this expertise is even more significant as it is the advanced prerequisite for the "Super Spellcaster".
"However, there is another prerequisite." At this time, Antinoya reminded Zhao Xu.
"If Ningwei and Eswig, who performed the mission with you last time in the Witch's Secret Box, die while clearing out the bandits, then there is no need for the three of you to go again." A scavenger's burrow."
Zhao Xu was thinking and nodded to show that he heard.
That is to say, he tied up with Wang Ningwei and Eswig.
In this situation where Zhao Xu is in the dark and the other party is in the open, there is nothing wrong with him taking the lead.
This is the second time that he has teamed up with Wang Ningwei and Eswig in disguise.
The next challenge to obtain the "Iron Will" expertise will definitely require them to fight side by side.
This made Zhao Xu think about the future positioning and relationship issues of their trio.
Needless to say, from Zhao Xu's initial contact with the two women, he could feel that they were not the kind of people who were difficult to get in touch with.
Even if Eswig sometimes has a bit of a venomous tongue, that's just because he is more sensitive by nature.
Mainly, he was a little strange. What was the starting point of this matter
"Teacher, who is taking advantage of whom?" Zhao Xu asked.
This kind of mission allows all three of them to gain the "Iron Will" expertise by going through a challenge.
If it were spread out, even high-ranking mages would be overwhelmed.
This has broken through the original barriers.
So Zhao Xu didn't think he would arrange them for no reason.
"Well, you must have benefited from them. In the future, you will advance to the level of 'Super Magic Spellcaster', and your abilities cover most of the abilities of the 'Super Magic Spellcaster'. So before you reach level 13, There is no need to consider the advancement of 'Super Spellcaster'."
"But both of them are potential candidates for this advanced level, waiting to pass the test. Therefore, this trial to obtain the 'Iron Will' specialty is a very critical task for them."
"Once they fail, it doesn't mean that they will lose the chance to become a 'super magic user', but it will also affect their growth progress in the floating city. So if you want to help them, you have to work hard. "
"As for why you were also added, of course they rated you higher than the other one in the mission evaluation later. At the same time, among the current floating city player group, your strength level is the first. You will naturally become The target has been selected. Otherwise, you would normally have to be at level 15 before you would be assigned to the 'Scavenger's Cave' trial. After all, many senior mages from the Floating City are also queuing up for this opportunity."
When Zhao Xu heard this, he was almost moved to tears.
Wang Ningwei is kind-hearted and acts upright. He is not surprised that the final result gave him high marks.
As for Eswig, he guessed that the other party was somewhat repaying the favor. After all, he used the 'spell' to save them both, instead of choosing to keep them alive.
The reward for his mission that day finally arrived.
But later, Zhao Xu also realized how deceptive that "spell" was.
That "spell" can indeed be resurrected, but it can only be used in the "real illusion".
That is to say, after Zhao Xu left the eighth floor of the Hall of Knowledge, the spell became a decoration.
If someone really coveted those two resurrection opportunities and did not save his teammates without knowing each other's identities, they would really spit out blood after knowing the truth.
"Is level 15 because you can swipe cards?" At this time, Zhao Xu asked Antinoya.
"That's right, as a mage now, your thinking is quite clear." Antinoya praised.
Zhao Xu secretly laughed in his heart, no wonder the senior mage also wanted this expertise.
At level 15, he can learn the two eight-ring spells "Abandon Chaos" and "Embrace Chaos".
At that time, he can first use "Embrace Chaos" to exchange the ordinary specialty of "Iron Will" into a chaos specialty.
He can then use the discard chaos spell to exchange that chaos feat for the one he wants.
The two phases are superimposed, and he is equivalent to replacing "Iron Will" with the target specialty he wants.
Zhao Xu is equivalent to gaining an additional professional ability.
This is the legendary washing expertise.
For many mages, even if they cannot learn this spell, it does not prevent them from finding a mage who knows this spell and paying a sufficient price to obtain the other party's spell.
This also means that after Zhao Xu obtains the "Iron Will" expertise, he can also find Antinoya to refresh his expertise for him.
After this period of time, Zhao Xu has understood that even if he has gained expertise in exchange for two flaws, his expertise chain is still extremely tight.
Because his "Meta-Magic Shaper" can cast spells combined with various meta-magic feats at almost no cost.
Every additional metamagic expertise he gains means that his strength becomes stronger.
If you don't match the metamagic expertise with others, you have to keep making trade-offs.
The level 10 ultimate professional abilities of "Spell Guardian" and "Super Magic User" are just to reduce the level of super magic by one level.
For example, if you match the spell with a long-lasting spell, you can only use spell slots with a higher level of 5 levels instead of 6 levels.
It's just that much better than nothing.
But even so, this ability to reduce the level itself corresponds to the "Legendary Expertise" of the same name.
Therefore, the value of the ability of "Super Magic Shaper" is difficult to measure.
"Teacher, is there anything similar like this in the floating city?" Zhao Xu then asked.
"Haha, Zhongxia, are you so sure that I will perform the 'Double Cleansing of Chaos' for you?" Antinoya mocked.
"Teacher, there is a saying about the earth, which is called Longwangshu." Zhao Xu said with a smile.
At this time Antinoya stood up. The hem of the robe she was wearing was a little too long and could only drag on the floor.
Finally, Antinoya stuffed a stack of discarded materials into the dissociation box, looked at Zhao Xu and said, "I hope you will remember what you said today."
Next, Antinoya found a low-level mage for Zhao Xu, so that Zhao Xu and the opponent successfully counterattacked the spell in a spell duel.
Then Zhao Xu did his own work and began to draw the magic circle on the ground one by one according to the "ritual requirements" recorded in the magic book.
In order to ensure the success rate of the ceremony, Zhao Xu deliberately found some gem fragments among the waste thrown away by Antinoya and reground them into powder.
In particular, the two gemstones, "Emerald" and "Jadeite", had only slight flaws, and they were thrown away by Antinoya without any concern.
Let Zhao Xu process it while lamenting that the destinies of mages are different.
As a magical gemstone, emerald is often used in some expensive spells, such as resurrection.
So the price of an emerald is 5,000 gold coins.
Zhao Xu assessed that the slight crack did not affect the strength of the spell at all, but for the wealthy Antinoya, it was so willful.
Finally, Zhao Xu lit the special incense in the center of the ceremony and began to sit down and meditate.
Slowly, as Zhao Xu's thoughts became empty, the original lines of the ritual circle began to slowly appear bright.
The mysterious energy in the void began to be injected into it, slowly starting the entire ceremony.
Antinoya sat on a high-legged stool and looked at Zhao Xu silently.
Because ritual spells take a long time and the various rune spells themselves have complex requirements, generally only educated spellcasters or scholars can perform them.
But in history, there were many unlucky people who suffered disaster because of performing rituals. The most common one was summoning power and summoning demons from the abyss.
Another example is performing a teleportation ritual, but the destination is completely opposite.
So Antinoya hung a "Time Rewind Talisman" on her chest today.
Once something goes wrong with Zhao Xu, she will activate the talisman without hesitation. Eventually, the time in this room will be abruptly set back to 6 seconds ago.
That is, everything that happened during this round will be cancelled.
Antinoya was somewhat afraid that Zhao Xu could cause trouble during the ceremony.
