After Zhao Xu asked the bartender for news, he came up to the private room on the second floor without thinking.
It's because he knows the other person is a player.
When he was looking for a smuggling caravan out of the city in Hurricane City, he specifically found Caesar, an underground force. The first thing he did was to show the other party his identity as a spell caster.
Because he knew that unless he used those three methods, it would be difficult for him to defeat four hands with two fists.
So the caster's identity is his barrier.
When he goes upstairs, his identity as a player is his barrier.
It's just that he didn't expect that Arthur has been serving for a month and a half and almost two months.
Players like Wolan who have successfully penetrated into Arthur's local town forces and do not rely on level but rely on personal business methods to have fun.
They actually met each other without saying a word, just buying and selling by force or even grabbing equipment
The gods are not dead yet, and evil deeds are not yet serious enough to be carried out in broad daylight.
Suddenly, Zhao Xu understood.
Perhaps his own robe was looked down upon.
Even though he was carrying a giant scythe of the underworld, this behavior without armor directly showed that he was not a warrior.
Arthur currently has only one level 4 mage and four level 2 mage among the mage group, which is jokingly called one god and four emperors by forum players.
It sounds very domineering, but it also implies that most other magic mages are actually just level 1 rookies.
For most basic professions, the second-level echelon has gradually become more abundant.
But Zhao Xu was also helpless.
He is here to seek intelligence support, not to kill people.
This group of players may have one or two magic weapons, but this also means that only the person with the magic weapon can threaten Zhao Xu.
The other party naturally became Zhao Xu's key target.
Others tried to attack Zhao Xu with ordinary weapons, but they would only be destroyed by his cloak.
Just when Zhao Xu thought this way, several Arthur native guards who were responsible for guarding the door began to surround Zhao Xu.
Even the young man who was sitting on the sofa at first took out a crossbow and aimed it at Zhao Xu domineeringly.
Arthur's freedom gives players so many possibilities.
It also allowed some players to suddenly reach high positions just because of the favorability of "NPCs", and it also caused a gap between Germany and Germany.
"Are you sure you want to fight me?" Zhao Xu kept smiling and looked at the people in front of him.
He was evaluating what range he should control if he did it himself.
"Idiot. Give you a chance to drop those two pieces of equipment, otherwise we will block you outside the temple and kill you five times. By then, your account will not have this talent point." Then. A young male holding a crossbow said.
He was already convinced that the other party would drop their equipment and surrender.
Arthur's death penalty is too heavy for everyone to bear, and naturally becomes an effective boost to their threat.
In the beginning, their group was able to successfully squeeze into the Falling Star Lake Mine Joint Association, and it was not the first capital they accumulated by robbing players and Arthur residents.
Originally, they were no longer so naked in this kind of robbery business.
It's just that this rookie player actually had two pieces of magic equipment on him, which directly aroused their greed.
In other words, after the player took off his equipment and made the first concession.
Only then can they proceed to the second step of interrogating the source of the equipment.
Wolan had put the exchange chips worth thousands of gold coins on the table more than once, but no one had ever been able to take them away easily.
As long as the other party is willing to take the first step, that is the beginning of being at their mercy.
A group of them were basically familiar with this kind of behavior, so when Wolan showed that hunting look at the beginning, they began to get into their respective roles.
At this time, Zhao Xu was probably assessing his anger level.
He had to decide when he couldn't stand it anymore and just clear out everyone present.
At the same time, before doing so, he had to ask first to prevent these people from dying in confusion.
"Is this how you treat people who just come here to ask for information?" Zhao Xu asked with a smile.
"She's quite calm. It's much better than last time when she ignored her and logged off immediately." The woman sitting on the edge said with a smile.
She was still wearing the robe of a trainee priest, and the robe was engraved with the divine pattern of the wrathful god.
Listening to what the other party said, Zhao Xu could only express his condolences to his innocent predecessor. Forcibly logging off would only cause his body to stay in Arthur as if he had died of sleep.
Naturally, the rogue's "sleight of hand" can be used to steal the player's equipment.
"Forget it, we're done. After you throw the equipment on the ground, take the bag of money and get out."
Wolan continued to speak in a cold tone, but on the other side she also continued to dismantle Zhao Xu's psychological defense.
If you lower the price to the limit at first, and then raise it slightly higher, it is easy for the other party to feel that this is a favor.
However, what they met was Zhao Xu, who treated them like fools.
This feeling that was completely opposite to usual made everyone present feel that they were meeting a different candidate this time.
It's not as easy as expected.
Suddenly, the young man holding the crossbow pulled the trigger, and an "arrow" flew towards Zhao Xu.
And the young man also showed a cruel smile.
When someone tries to procrastinate, naturally they have to step up the pace.
So they formulated detailed steps from the beginning. As long as the opponent refused to bow his head, they would have to use hard moves to hurt the opponent first.
A weak state is more likely to break the will.
The young man was always very confident, and the crossbow arrows that could hit almost nine times out of ten were aimed at Zhao Xu, and Zhao Xu was even unable to dodge under the weapons of the four guards.
However, just as the crossbow arrow was about to pierce into Zhao Xu's body and just touch the outer fabric of the cloak, stars suddenly poured down from the sky.
The originally indestructible, specially customized arrow was directly exploded and destroyed by the starlight.
Even under this intensity of starlight, arrows raining down from the sky were still of no use.
Just when no one had reacted to what was going on in this scene.
"Glitter dust!"
The only impression everyone had at the end was the name of this spell.
It was far more intense than the starlight just now, and the dazzling cloud of golden particles exploded on the spot and spread towards the entire box.
"ah!"
"My eyes! Why can't you see?"
"Don't get excited!"
"It's blindness, don't panic."
"Flash Dust" is a powerful blinding spell among the second-level spells.
It forcibly creates dazzling golden particles floating in the air. Basically, the creatures covered will be shining with golden light and unable to hide, and even invisible creatures will appear.
Therefore, spell resistance has no effect on it, and only Will saving throws can determine whether it will become blinded.
When everyone's eyes recovered, the entire box was shining with golden light, and everyone was contaminated with the particles created by the spell just now.
But their target, Zhao Xu, disappeared after throwing the spell.
The whole process was astonishingly fast, too fast for everyone to react, and it also disrupted their plans.
"Retreat first." Volan, the leader of these players, finally said with a nervous expression. She already knew that they had kicked a rock this time.
"What's wrong?" said the girl in the corner among the five people.
Although she also felt something was wrong, she was still a little bit dissatisfied.
From just now until now, the gate of this box has not been opened.
But there was no trace of Zhao Xu at the scene, and with the blessing of such a special spell as "Flash Dust", there was no hiding.
The only reason is that the other party has become "invisible".
Or the invisibility after flash dust.
Several young people who knew about "glitter dust" and "invisibility" also felt uneasy, just like their former prey.
They were hit head-on by an iron plate!
"Run quickly." The middle-aged man, the eldest among the five, said through gritted teeth.
They look down on first-level mages because their opponents have limited spell slots.
But now, the situation has apparently reversed.
The other party was obviously teasing them deliberately with a high-ring mage with a malicious taste.
"The other party should be an indigenous mage, but I made a mistake." Wolan reviewed himself and said. At this time, a group of people had begun to gather at the door.
Everyone knew that there was a god of death hiding in the room who was about to harvest their lives, but no one dared to reveal this fact.
Just as the guard trembled, he inserted the key into the gate that was locked from behind and finally turned it.
Suddenly, a death announcement came from behind -
"Fireball."
The bar counter of the "Truncated Bar" was already quite lively at this time, and even a few good-hearted gamblers had begun to place bets on the young man who had just gone upstairs and was carrying a huge scythe. What was left on his body when he came down.
But most gamblers suppress the young man and never let him go.
Just as they raised their glasses to each other, they were about to clink their glasses and wait for the next bet to come.
There was a loud "bang", followed by the sound of various debris falling to the ground and breaking.
At the same time, the aftermath of the explosion made everyone present feel as if they were shaken from the ground to the wine glasses.
They all stared blankly at the private room on the second floor. There was only one group of people on the entire second floor.
Could it be that there are mysterious explosives stacked on the second floor
Several guards who were watching downstairs saw something was wrong and were about to go to the second floor.
But their way was blocked.
A male mage wearing a hood and carrying a huge scythe appeared from the corner of the second floor, and then walked down gently.
During the whole process, his pace was not very fast, but no one dared to stop him, as if the other person was the incarnation of death.
From the moment the bartender saw the man, he knelt down under the bar and did not dare to move for fear of attracting attention.
It wasn't until the mage officially walked out of the tavern that the guards plucked up the courage to rush up to the second floor.
Immediately afterwards, the guards screamed—
"Dead, finished, all dead."
For a moment, in the entire tavern, even the drunkest drunkards suddenly woke up.
They knew the combat power upstairs, and it would not be a problem to directly sweep through dozens of people on the first floor.
At this time, I thought of the faint smell of sulfur in the air and the violent roar.
A drinker who had been a mage's apprentice for half a year said with awe and envy -
"Fireball."
"That's the third, third ring mage!"
