The Truth of Magic

Chapter 232: Lighting level

Views:

After hearing Zhao Xu's words, if Fleur hadn't understood that the other party was her bodyguard, and even called out the name of her cheap father.

Otherwise, she would be suspicious of the other party's intentions.

But this was easy to handle. Having grown up with the female thief, she had already known how to use her beauty to get around without suffering a loss.

"Then I'll go there in the middle of the night?" Fleur whispered.

"Yeah, okay."

The journey that follows is just like what Zhao Xu has experienced before.

A group of people team up with each other and go on a night march in the wilderness.

After the sun completely set and night gradually rose, Zhang Qi and others simply took out simple homemade torches.

This kind of torch is basically a wooden stick cut into shape, and then wrapped in linen cloth soaked in grease. It can be bought in the market for 1 copper coin.

However, on the one hand, the lighting brightness of this kind of torch is very average, and the thick smoke it emits also affects the feeling of the holder.

On the other hand, it is easy to extinguish or ignite weeds on the ground when attacked, causing burns. Therefore, once adventurers have money, they will replace them with lamps.

And the grease content is limited, so the torch itself can only last for one hour.

As the first player to graduate as a mage in Winter City, the mage Mouton took out a bull's-eye lantern.

This kind of lantern has been processed inside, and then a small opening is opened. After the lamp oil is lit, it can emit a cone-shaped lighting area with a full field of view of twenty meters through the bull's eye.

Oil seals are also good as another supplementary lighting effect.

"Hey, Master Mouton, how much does this lantern cost you?" the mage player in Zhao Xu's class couldn't help but ask.

"Twelve gold coins," said Master Mouton. "That means you have to burn a small jar of lamp oil every 6 hours, which is about 1 silver coin."

After hearing this, everyone immediately became interested. After all, six torches can barely last for 6 hours, and they cost 6 copper coins.

"The main reason is that it has a wider illumination range and can see the darkness ahead earlier, which is always better." Master Mouton explained with a smile.

Resurrection stones are always more expensive.

"So, our half-orc race is better." Du Nan, a barbarian, laughed and scanned the surrounding wilderness night scene with a proud expression.

Dark vision is a half-orc racial ability, and half-orcs can also get 2 points of strength enhancement.

"Everyone who has a torch, use a torch, and those who have dark vision, use dark vision. Players who venture through this road die every day, so be careful." At this time, Zhang Qi also stood up and shouted.

Zhao Xu looked at Du Nan and had a headache.

In his previous life, Du Nan had registered an account twice, always playing the half-orc race and the barbarian profession.

It is also suitable for his own personality. When encountering a battle, he will activate "Frenzy" which can increase his attributes and rush through it without any thought.

It's just that after time travel, this race is not easy to deal with. It doesn't matter if they are all players now.

When Du Nan wants to marry and have children, he will have to find an orc.

Although Du Nan himself didn't care much in his previous life.

In fact, people who give their game IDs a bad name usually don't care much about it.

But Du Nan really wanted to be a human being when the time came, and Zhao Xu had a way to help him.

Even if the other party wants to change now, Zhao Xu, a level 20 priest, happens to have spells that can be used.

This is also the reason why mages and priests become increasingly incomprehensible when they reach advanced levels.

Because most of the problems in time have been solved by predecessors who have invented corresponding spells.

At least Du Nan is now enjoying the benefits brought by the half-orc race, such as dark vision, which allows them to see the dark situation ahead without using torches.

It is only when it encounters the darkness caused by magic that it becomes deflated.

Fleur probably also wanted to have a little more lighting and a little more safety.

At this time, she also took out an alchemy item - the "Lighting Staff" from the package.

Then she lightly tapped the top of the wand, and it suddenly glowed softly like a glowing magic wand.

Even in an area 10 to 20 meters away that exceeds the lighting of a torch, it provides enough dim vision.

"Here, there are really people buying this thing." At this moment, the player who noticed what Fleur was holding couldn't help but exclaimed.

The lighting rod is a slender iron rod with a gold-plated top. As long as it is knocked, it will consume the gold-plated film and emit light until the gold is consumed and the light will stop.

A small lighting stick costs 2 gold coins for 6 hours of lighting, and it is indeed not something that ordinary people would use.

Although it is indeed more convenient and less likely to cause fire than torches and lanterns.

Zhao Xu didn't expect that with just a lighting tool, he could see the excitement of the people present.

Thinking about his past life, he could only hold the torch of Kupu by himself and watch the players at that time use lanterns.

While he was thinking about it, he also took out his "inextinguishable torch".

When he took it out, several people in the audience immediately glanced at it, but everyone saw that what he took out was also a torch, so they didn't pay much attention.

"Husband." Suddenly Feng Ge whispered to Zhang Qi, "That priest's torch is weird."

"What's wrong?" Zhang Qi was a little confused.

Feng Ge lowered his voice and said, "He didn't light it. It was on when he took it out."

At this time, Zhang Qi couldn't help but feel numbness in his back.

If things are abnormal, then half of them have special problems.

He whispered to Feng Ge, "Go over and notify Lulu, and I'll go see what's going on."

After saying that, he put the torch in his hand back to Feng Ge and walked gently towards Zhao Xu.

According to their plan, they would have to walk for another two hours before setting up camp.

After Zhang Qi got closer, he looked at the torch in Zhao Xu's hand and didn't feel anything strange. The flame was still burning.

It wasn't until he stopped for a while that he realized the torch wasn't hot on the road

He couldn't help but walked over and asked in a low voice: "Brother Pastor, why does your torch look different from ours?"

Zhao Xu said with a smile: "A lot of the lighting you see in the temple are like this."

Hearing this reply, Zhang Qi was a little confused. He had never been to any temple.

But he never thought that Zhao Xu's listening skills were so advanced that he couldn't hide any trouble from him.

After Zhao Xu relied on his reconnaissance skills to notice that Feng Ge's topic was related to him, he began to pay attention.

So no matter how low Feng Ge's voice was, under the influence of Zhao Xu's level 30 or above listening skills, it was basically the same as speaking next to his ear.

He doesn't even need to use the spy spell "Sharp Ear" anymore.

He naturally heard Feng Ge’s question, so when he answered Zhang Qi, he also told Feng Ge—

There are many torches like these that light up when taken out, and they only exist in the form of lamps in the temple.

Priests who focus on perception will easily become stagnant if they don't pay more attention to everything around them.

At this time, Zhang Qi had already walked back to his original position, and Feng Ge also came back from Cui Lu, biting his ear and said: "It's embarrassing, that torch is an inextinguishable torch, worth 110 gold coins."

"I'll go, what do you think the immortal torch costs 110 gold coins?" Zhang Qi couldn't help shouting.

He couldn't help but be shocked.

He spent a lot of money to buy the same "slat armor" as Zhao Xu's the day before yesterday. It provided a full level 6 armor defense and only cost 200 gold coins.

Just such a broken torch costs 110 gold coins

At this time, Zhao Xu saw Zhang Qi shouting out. Many players and classmates present looked at him. Apparently they realized that the torch in Zhang Qi's mouth was the one in Zhao Xu's hand

110 gold coins

It’s not that it’s not worth it, but if you have the money to buy this thing, why not solve the equipment problem first

Zhao Xu saw everyone's attention looking over at this time, so he explained: "This immortal torch was obtained after being blessed with the 'Eternal Flame' spell. From then on, the torch can always emit light without heat. "

"Really 110 gold coins?" Zhang Qi asked with a hint of doubt.

Zhao Xu shook his head gently, "No, just use 50 gold coins of ruby powder for the material cost."

"Let me go, doesn't it mean that the person who bought this in the market made a profit of 60 gold coins?" Zhang Qi couldn't help but continue to exclaim.

The slatted armor he wore was earned for him by his girlfriend Feng Ge through her ability as a priest.

At this time, Pastor Feng Ge had no choice but to poke Zhang Qi on the shoulder, telling him to shut up.

"If you ask a mage to cast a second-level spell, the casting service fee is 60 gold coins."

The base value of a second-level spell is 20 gold coins, multiplied by the level 3 caster level, so the service fee is 60 gold coins.

This is also the reason why the nine-ring spell requires a service fee of 90*17=1530 gold coins.

Several people nearby heard Feng Ge's statement and couldn't help but take a breath and look at the torch in Zhao Xu's hand.

Spending thousands of gold coins to buy powerful armor would not be a luxury for them.

But it is quite surprising that even the most inconspicuous lighting can produce hundreds of gold coins.

"Xiao Ge, I suddenly feel that you spell casters can make a fortune by casting spells for others." Zhang Qi couldn't help but envy him.

Pastor Feng Ge explained angrily: "Priest magic comes from God. Don't think about it. We can't charge service fees like mages. We have to serve believers."

At this time, Zhao Xu's classmates couldn't help but look at their own 1-copper-coin torch, and then at the 1-silver-coin bull's-eye lantern.

Then he looked at the lighting staff in Fleur's hand, and then his eyes returned to the immortal torch in Zhao Xu's hand.

When have you ever seen such a naked class distinction using lighting

Zhao Xu, who was about to comfort everyone, suddenly stopped.

With a questioning expression, he turned his head and looked into the depths of the pile of rocks.

The ghost buried in Falling Star Lake appeared in advance

It's a pity that he is no longer the Zhao Xu he was during his first adventure.

No matter what comes, with Zhao Xu's current ability.

He was being polite if he didn't blow up the other person's ashes.

I can only post one more chapter at three or four tonight, so everyone goes to bed early.
