Immediately, everyone in the room walked outside, leaving Zhao Xu alone, still sitting there.
He silently stared at his reflection.
Feel the "touch" that just sprouted in your brain.
"Falling Star Lake" originated from the fall of a meteor from the sky, which created a huge crater. Later, the water accumulated and formed a lake, hence the name.
Originally, "Falling Star Lake" was a beautiful scenic spot near Winter City as mentioned by adventurers.
Until thirty years ago, someone picked up a mithril fragment worth thousands of gold coins at the bottom of Falling Star Lake. This peaceful lake has been soaked in blood ever since.
After the former meteor fell behind, it changed the mineral vein at the bottom of Falling Star Lake, transforming the mineral vein from a low-quality silver mine into a mithril mine.
The mineral vein in Falling Star Lake had been explored before the meteor fell.
It's just that the quality of the silver vein was too low, and the final sales profit could not cover the costs of mining, refining, and selling, so it was naturally abandoned.
But when that mine is a mine of mithril worth thousands of gold, even if not much mithril can be extracted per ton of ore, it means that it is a profitable mine.
Naturally, Falling Star Lake began to be occupied by major forces, and slowly the mine owners paid for the contract, doing the work of second-rate dealers.
On the surface, the ownership of "Falling Star Lake" is ultimately owned by Winter City.
However, the mine owners of Falling Star Lake formed a mining association, and their strength also increased with the production of mithril veins.
At the same time, the mine owners who have become fertile are also continuing to carry out second-generation marriage work with Winter City and even the Northland Alliance.
This time Wolan and others were selected by the "mine owners", which was more or less because the mine owners wanted to drive a wedge into the player base.
Zhao Xu knew that it was this marriage relationship that made Winter City move much slower after the slave trade incident was exposed.
Players are also worried that by the time the process is completed, all the evidence may have long since disappeared.
At this time, he heard hurried footsteps outside the corridor.
At this time, the first reaction of the players was to go to "Falling Star Lake" to ask for an explanation.
Basically, in many of Arthur's city-states, no matter how arrogant the local gangsters are, when they encounter players who possess professional abilities and have resurrection stones, they have to apologize.
Otherwise, even the city hall would have to avoid the sharp edge of the players coming together after gathering.
It's just that the players didn't expect that when they went to ask for an explanation, they actually encountered a head-on attack from the Mining Association.
The mine owners know that as long as they can suppress the players' words, the senior management of Winter City can naturally use long-term relationships to repair it.
Yet they underestimated form.
The players in Winter City are not all individuals.
Countless people have classmates and teachers. Because of the geographical connection, basically the players in Winter City are in groups, because everyone has their own classmates and friends.
This is also the reason why Zhao Xu was able to take down the Sheriff of Falling Star Town later. There were too many classmates who could help and guide him.
Therefore, the Mining Association completely miscalculated. They killed the first wave of players, and those who arrived the second time were these players and their classmates, relatives and friends.
When this group is killed again, a bigger snowball will roll next time.
This is also the reason why Zhao Xu dare not act rashly. He needs at least dozens of players to witness the crimes of slave trading for the first time to ensure that this matter will not be suppressed.
At this time, Zhao Xu slowly understood as he listened to the shouts in the dormitory corridor.
Mouton, the first mage to graduate from Winter City players, was killed by the mine owners while investigating the missing persons case in "Falling Star Lake" and was resurrected.
Mouton has a gentle and humble personality. He is also very serious and responsible towards players who have not yet graduated. His advice to players is sincere, and he does not have the arrogance of high-level players at all.
He is also one of the few players who has just been promoted to level 1 mage and was selected by the Winter City Mage Association as a mage apprentice assistant.
Therefore, Mouton has a very high reputation among the apprentices of the entire Mage Association, and he also has a profound influence on the newly graduated first-level mage.
Several of them were even successfully promoted under Mouton's care.
Zhao Xu knew Mouton from his previous life. He was a counselor at the university next door. He was very young and outstanding.
In fact, I only entered the game to better integrate into the student group at the beginning, but I didn't expect to catch up to the front in no time.
Mouton's real name was "Suhang". In his previous life, he went to his house to sit under the leadership of "Zhang Qi".
At that time, Mouton had almost reached level seven and was somewhat famous in the entire player circle.
Even when communicating with the outside world and other cities, Mouton can still be regarded as their business card, giving it that sense of pride.
That's why the entire academy was so excited after Mouton died this time.
Zhao Xu, on the other hand, re-examined his own strength.
He has the "Gem Jump" spell, so escaping is actually not difficult, but the ensuing battle will basically bleed blood until the last moment.
A few simple spells cannot solve the problem at all.
And Zhao Xu, the "Fireball Technique" that can really solve the problem, can only release two, so he has to choose key points to release.
Moreover, the entire battle of "Battle of Falling Star Lake" slowly began to ferment in the forum, and the battle situation only became more and more tragic later on.
In fact, at first, the mine owners didn't react at all. They originally just wanted to wait for the investigation team to arrive four or five days later, and then make arrangements according to the previous routine.
Unexpectedly, the battle with the players became more and more intense, so that the mine owners finally put their family guards on top to resist the wave of players' attacks.
The whole process was like two adults stabbing each other with knives, neither fatal.
But when everyone is injured, it is destined that only one person will be able to leave alive.
Therefore, the battle for several days was basically protracted. Zhao Xu had no choice but to have such a wave of excitement just for a moment. It was not cost-effective for him.
He needs to fight for the long haul.
This point dawned on him.
After killing the five players and four guards with the fireball technique, Zhao Xu found that there was some kind of faint feeling in his mind.
He needs to kill to unlock the location of the portal.
If he was using the "giant scythe" in his hand, I'm afraid he would be able to react to this after the killing was successful.
There is no need to wait until you just heard the news about the slave trade in Falling Star Lake to react.
This requires him to become a warrior.
The reason why war priests can leave a great reputation in Arthur is mainly because they have magic support, and their attack power is no less than that of warriors, and they can also be self-sufficient, so they are very famous.
Therefore, Zhao Xu, who has a "full spell table", can also do the corresponding things, and he is even more powerful.
The only drawback is that some of the spells are too high in level and he can't use them yet.
At this time, Zhao Xu walked back into the quiet room with his backpack and giant scythe, and then locked the door.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Xu took out the "prayer candle" and placed it on the table.
At this point, there was nothing to hold back. All signs made him understand that that "demi-plane" was definitely more than just an "Iron Will" ability.
Especially since he had just been to the temple of Naraku, the god of death, and that temple happened to have the "artificial god of death" plan that the priests had exchanged their lives for.
So Zhao Xu determined that he needed to enter that half of the plane to see what was going on, not to mention that he had such a connection with "Falling Star Lake" in his previous life.
Zhao Xu knew that this battle did not just break out all at once.
And the artifact among the artifacts he obtained is still in a dormant state.
So he needs to use this prayer candle.
But if the prayer candle is simply summoned, then he is just watching the creature fight, and it does not count as him harvesting life.
So it was completely useless for him to activate the "giant scythe" in his hand to locate the portal.
He had to do it himself.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xu took out an extremely white book from his backpack. It even had feathers on it, like an angel.
The written title reads "Synchrony".
Homology is a very unfamiliar word.
But there is a well-known spell underneath it - Synchronic Celestial Clan.
This is the holy magic of the seventh ring, and above that, there is the "high-level attuned heavenly clan" of the ninth ring.
The greatest effect of this spell is that it allows him to merge with heavenly creatures.
After merging, he can gain the opponent's "magic-like abilities" and "supernatural abilities".
Once Zhao Xu transformed into the Blazing God's Attendant, the nine-ring spell ability of "body change" only allowed him to obtain the corresponding supernatural abilities.
But he could not touch the "spellcasting ability" and "spell-like ability" of the 19th-level priest of the Seraph God.
You know, what Zhao Xu is most worried about in the underground temple is the "deep hell refining demon", which is actually the other party's series of spell-like abilities, such as the "group monster immobilization technique" and "order shock" that can be used at will .
The ability to cast spells is everything to Arthur.
So once Zhao Xu can "synchronize", he will break through the limitations of "transformation spells" and gain "spell abilities". At this time, he will be the reaper of death on the battlefield.
It's just that "Synchronic Celestial Clan" is a seven-ring spell, and Zhao Xu can't use it now.
But the "Tongtun Celestial Clan" is just one of the means of "Tongtun".
In addition to this, there are other corresponding coherence methods.
At this time, Zhao Xu directly lit the "prayer candle" in front of him.
Then he waited quietly for the door of heaven to open.
This fifth chapter has to be completed at noon on the 5th. As expected, writing five chapters in one day is my limit. Fortunately, I didn’t commit to five updates on the 6th. I will update three times that day, and then save a chapter to stabilize subsequent updates.
