The Truth of Magic

Chapter 250: Underground truth

Views:

When Zhao Xu heard "Lux" who suddenly woke up and reminded him that something was wrong, he woke up in his heart.

However, at this critical moment, thanks to Lux, she was able to remind him before he could identify the spell that it was the "Mage's Splitting Technique" that could break down a house.

When he first heard this, Zhao Xu almost lost his temper.

He had never done anything immoral in Falling Star Lake in his previous life.

How come Frank, the "Emerald Star Master", raised his hand and cast a spell that could bankrupt him

Generally speaking, a resident spell like Zhao Xu who has cast a bunch of spells on himself for a long time may seem invincible, but he may not be invincible.

Because ordinary spell casters can cast third-level "dispelling magic" and sixth-level "advanced dispelling magic", and compete with the caster level to achieve a certain probability of dispelling the spell effect.

If he builds a defensive building, others can demolish it or even blow it up.

However, when it comes to the ninth ring.

Everything has changed.

A spell that makes both the enemy and ourselves cry was born.

"Mage Disintegration" can 100% remove all spell effects on the opponent.

If someone hangs himself with a life-extending spell, and it happens to be lifted, he will die instantly when his lifespan expires.

However, if it is just to dispel the spell, then this spell will become the "starting gesture" for the mage and the two sides to greet each other during the war.

But it also has an additional effect, so that all mages who dare to use it first will inevitably fall into a desperate situation.

This also makes this spell the "nuclear weapon" of Arthur's nine-ring mage.

All it takes is the Mage Association to convene the nine-ring mages and sign an agreement not to be the first to use the "Mage Splitting Technique".

Because this spell will dissolve all the magic items on the opponent's body.

A Will saving throw is made between the object's Will bonus and the owner's Will bonus, whichever is higher.

As long as there is one item that is not passed, it will be reduced to ordinary items by this "Mage Disintegration Technique".

That is to say, if Zhao Xu's "star cloak" worth 130,000 gold coins fails to survive, it will become an "ordinary cloak" worth less than a few gold coins.

Then Zhao Xu really wanted to kill someone on the spot.

It's just that at this time, the mantra in the other person's mouth has almost finished reciting the prayer.

Otherwise, Zhao Xu would have shouted on the spot that I have a magical weapon!

"Mage Disintegration" is one of the few spells that is so overbearing that it can destroy artifacts.

It's just that the success rate is 1% per caster level. According to Frank in front of him, it will definitely not be more than a quarter.

The main reason is that once the opponent really destroys the artifact and fails to survive the Will save, it will be the opponent's turn to lose the ability to cast spells.

Even miracles and prayers cannot avoid this situation.

So taking an artifact for a ride is indeed a good way to protect your other magical items.

But now, the other party didn't ask any questions, just slapped his nose on his face, and Zhao Xu had no choice but to do it.

He activated the "combination spell" he had set up at the beginning on the spot.

Zhao Xu first recalled the scene where he cast the six-ring spell "Triggering Technique".

And the process of "recalling" is the condition for his triggering technique to "activate".

Immediately, the "Trigger Technique" pre-set on Zhao Xu's body directly burst out with powerful energy, instantly driving the four-ring "Swift Explosion" spell he was equipped with at the time.

Relying on this combination, Zhao Xu's entire body began to enter a slow state instantly, and everything seemed to be almost stagnant.

He had enough precious time to cast the "Standard Movement" spell.

Being able to catch up before the opponent's spell is completed is what makes "Swift Explosion" the most satisfying part of a spell that can get ahead of others.

It's a pity that the mage opposite doesn't understand "quick burst", otherwise the opponent can also use "quick burst" before he activates "trigger".

At that time, Zhao Xu would think about dismantling the opponent's "quick burst" and thus enter the mage action battle.

However, Zhao Xu didn't worry too much. His focus was entirely on the specific response method.

If he tries to cast any defensive spells, it will definitely be funny, just like using tofu to block a kitchen knife.

The mage's disintegration technique explodes with the opponent as the center of the circle, covering an entire 12-meter radius area.

It's four times larger than the fireball spell's range of over 100 square meters, and you can't even run as far as that.

While any door is within sight, the space of this treasure house is completely covered by the spell. So if he wanted to escape, he would have to use teleportation. This would definitely alarm the outside world.

Another way is to risk his life and directly use the "anti-magic force field".

At this time, Zhao Xu was four meters away from the opponent, just outside the range of the spell, and could not prevent the opponent from casting the spell.

But even if the anti-magic field is in the outside world, it is regarded as a bamboo chopping board. The probability of being destroyed is the same as that of the artifact, one percentage point per level.

It's just that he has to remove the "anti-magic field" himself later, which is too passive.

Just when Zhao Xu hesitated for a moment, almost two seconds had passed.

If he delayed a little longer, the time it took for the burst to occur would not be enough to cast a spell. At that time, he could only watch the other party cast a spell, and then watch a bunch of magic equipment disappear into ashes.

break out.

Suddenly, this word flashed in Zhao Xu's mind.

Arthur could blur everything, except for the description of the spells in the spell list, there was not a single word that could be blurred.

The working principle of the spell is based on countless theoretical derivation experiments, which does not mean that you can change it if you want to.

So it explodes rather than diffuses!

That is, if something is blocking his way.

The effect of the spell cannot be submerged from behind!

Just as the effects of this spell do not penetrate beyond walls.

After thinking about this clearly, Zhao Xu chuckled and cast another five-ring spell—

"Stonewall!"

I saw an extremely thick stone wall emerging directly from the ground and stacked all the way to the ceiling.

The area is more than ten square meters, which is equivalent to six full beds put together.

It almost divided the entire room.

This spell is not the "fire wall" of the plasticity system, nor the "wall of order" of the protection system, nor the "illusion wall" of the illusion system.

It is a genuine stone wall made from the lineage of the real conjuration system (creation).

The duration is instant, that is, the wall will not disappear because the duration expires.

This is also the characteristic of items in the conjuration (creation) series, which is not afraid of various anti-demon and demon-breaking effects.

However, when Zhao Xu Zhao Xu intuitively put up a wall.

However, he realized that Frank, who was blocked in front of him, had not cast any spells.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Xu saw Frank, the nine-ring mage, using magic to move the stone wall in front of him, but the other party did not continue to cast the spell.

This also surprised Zhao Xu, who was holding the second spell and preparing to counterattack.

"Master, he canceled the spell." Lux explained.

"Yes, you actually know how to build a wall intuitively. You, a priest, know a lot of magic tricks." Frank, the master of the Emerald Star, walked to a back chair and sat down, with a cup of hot and simmering water in his hand. Smoked coffee.

"No fight?" Zhao Xu asked.

But his brows were still furrowed, showing no signs of relaxing at all.

Just now, Frank claimed to be a seven-ring mage, and turned around and cast a nine-ring spell on him.

He now has no second trigger to replenish, not to mention that the round of punishment after he cast "Swift Burst" has not yet come, so he can no longer release "Swift Burst".

"It's not necessary. Anyone who can use countermeasures is qualified to ask me Frank questions." Frank, the man with a silvery metallic color all over his body, said.

"It's not difficult to cast a spell, but finding the right spell to cast is something that mages need to think about for a lifetime." Frank suddenly sighed.

Zhao Xu didn't expect this to be the case, and the situation fell into an embarrassing atmosphere for a while.

"Master, it's true. Get closer to him and cover him within three meters." Lux continued to pay Zhao Xu's attention at this time.

"If things go wrong then, Master, you can use the 'Anti-Magic Field'."

When Zhao Xu heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "Lux, can you turn into a magical weapon?"

"Ah, Master, why did you react so quickly? Maybe someone has changed, right?" Lux complained.

Hearing this, Zhao Xu smiled and said nothing.

Lux asked him to create an "anti-magic field" where both the enemy and himself would be destroyed and neither the enemy nor himself could cast spells again.

It's because the anti-demon field is against them as mortals, not artifacts.

So if one day Lux can transform into the "Book of All Laws" at any time, and his "anti-magic field" is hundreds of meters away.

At that time, even a legendary mage could fall into his hands if he was not careful.

However, Zhao Xu still followed Lux's suggestion, pretending to go up to negotiate, and took a few steps forward.

There are too many complex variables in the mage station. On the contrary, sometimes, after removing most of everyone's abilities and lowering them to compete together, the decision-making will be much easier.

"Speaking of which, what do you want to ask me?" At this time, Frank gently blew the mist from the coffee cup in his hand.

"Master, how should I put it? I feel that the other party is indeed not hostile." Lux also told Zhao Xu with a hint of confusion.

However, Zhao Xu's ability to see through invisibility and his thirty-level "Observe Motive and Color" skill did not remind him of anything unusual.

Zhao Xu was still on guard, "I want to ask the truth about the birth of Falling Star Lake."

Frank's eyes suddenly glowed with a silvery white light, and he asked: "Are you also here to look for things underground?"
