Vivian had just taken turns to perform the "Detect Evil" appraisal on all the stone gates, but none of them showed any abnormality.
Therefore, based on the information determined by divination, Zhao Xu and Vivian took a short break and decided to enter the stone gate with a "good" result.
At this time, Zhao Xu walked in and took a look, and clearly saw several coffins carved on the stone pillars of the door, which made him suspect that there were undead challenges inside.
However, it can be said that Zhao Xu has always dealt with undead creatures the most.
Even the most powerful necromancy staff in his hand is aimed at undead creatures, so he doesn't feel any pressure.
Just like the stone gates he had seen before, the stone gate in front of him was completely tight against the gaps in the surrounding walls and was not ventilated at all.
In front of the completely closed huge stone door, a dark blue stone slab was paved on the ground. It was very different from the light yellow land next to it and seemed a bit abrupt.
Usually when you see this kind of stone slab in some narrow corridors, most likely it is the pedal of a bow and arrow trap. Once you step on it, the switch will be activated.
But it's obviously different now.
"I'll try it first," Zhao Xu said.
"President, I have more health points, so I should stand on top, right?" Vivian dissuaded.
At this time, her expression was solemn. Even if she died for Zhao Xu, she would definitely do it.
"Don't be so stupid." Zhao Xu smiled.
"If it's really a trap, I just summon an invisible servant and ask him to carry a bag of soil to press the floor. But the previous maze test made me worry that the servant wouldn't be able to detect anything special, so I tried it myself. .”
With "Secondary Rapid Explosion" + "Teleportation Boots" in hand, he has an absolute backhand that can definitely escape.
The one who can defeat him at the critical moment will only be another mage who can explode quickly, not this kind of mechanical dead thing.
That's why there is this magical scene where the mage carelessly walks into the trap and the paladin at full status watches the show from behind.
Just because he wanted to think about it, Zhao Xu still directed Vivian to stand a little further away.
In general traps, he believed that nothing would happen to Vivian.
But the level here was too high, and he wouldn't be surprised if there was a corpse of a god inside, so Zhao Xu didn't dare to get it right.
After holding the super magic scepter and getting ready to cast the spell, Zhao Xu stepped directly onto the dark blue stone slab.
Suddenly, the ring-shaped door hall, which had been so peaceful and quiet that there were echoes of whispers, suddenly made the sound of mechanical chain gears.
With the ground shaking slightly, Zhao Xu saw the door in front of him begin to rotate.
Turnstile!
Zhao Xu reacted instantly and hurriedly motioned for Vivian to run over from a distance and stand on the adjacent bluestone tile beside him.
After the stone door turned 180 degrees, Zhao Xu, who was originally standing outside, was also brought indoors by this rotation.
"The design of this stone gate is too deliberate." Zhao Xu complained.
The entire process from beginning to closing lasted for two minutes.
In other words, the speed was extremely slow. It took at least half a minute for him to wait until the gate turned around and there was a gap for people to pass through.
"It's a bit like our style." Vivian also commented.
The revolving door means that if they want to escape, they have to wait for the door to open slowly. If they encounter danger and are chased inside, they will have to escape all the way here and there will be no time to wait for the door to open.
This ensures there are no obstacles for them to get in, but it also delays their escape. At the same time, the design of the door cannot prevent enemies from opening it.
At this time, Zhao Xu took out an immortal fireworks torch and took it with Vivian each. Like Zhao Xu, insert it directly into the back.
The Eternal Fire Torch is not a real torch, so it does not need to be held rigidly in the hand to use it.
But when the torches shone in front, everyone couldn't help but take a deep breath. No wonder they felt a strange burning sensation when they first came in.
Where they were standing was a small platform on top of a cliff, and it wouldn't be a problem for more than ten people to stand on it.
There is also a stone bridge that is large enough for people to lie flat in the middle, connecting them from their end to the other side, but the other side is too deep and dark to see clearly.
In short, they had to walk to the other side through this stone bridge without handrails.
What's even more terrifying is that at the bottom of the cliff, there is constantly boiling and rolling molten metal. Their scorching temperature is such that even if a cow is dropped, there won't even be many bones and corpses to be found when it is fished out.
"It's really a big deal. These spaces are layered with obstacles, but when I entered this wooden door, I didn't feel the slightest discomfort from the teleportation." Zhao Xu sighed.
Vivian observed and nodded in agreement.
Just the empty area in front of me completely occupied the space of the two doors next to it.
It means that the other two doors will only reorganize the space on their own.
"But are we really going to go there?"
Vivian said with a hint of distress.
Wearing a suit of armor, if she fell, he would definitely not be able to pull her back.
Zhao Xu understood the meaning.
Both of them can fly, and they can reach the other side without walking along this bridge.
When a mage reaches the third ring and masters flying, some adventures that are blocked by cliffs or impassable due to complex terrain become a joke.
In other words, it would be embarrassing to have the courage to enter this mysterious building without even the ability to fly.
The question is whether it can be that simple.
"Let me check the wind first." Zhao Xu became worried when he came in and saw that there was an easy way to go.
He directly recited the spell, took out an unlit candle from his bag, and began to wave the spell.
Compared with the usual "standard action" time casting, Zhao Xu's chanting and casting time this time was close to a full round.
In these 6 seconds, he was completely passive and rigidly casting spells.
If it were a one-on-one fight, the opponent would never give him such a comfortable time.
In normal mage battles, everyone seizes the opportunity to release "standard action" spells. If they are suppressed and unable to draw, there are also "quick action" spells.
He even used his spell prompting expertise to change his standard movement to swiftness.
Therefore, this is also a spell with a completely different direction—
Level 1 Monster Summoning Technique!
For the first time, Antinoya brought in skeleton soldiers to fight Zhao Xu, using similar spells.
Monster summoning is a series of spells, from the first level to the ninth level. Each level has a summoning list, and you can select the monsters in it to summon.
They are usually extra-dimensional creatures, usually alien creatures, elemental creatures, or magical beasts from other planes.
At the same time, the monster summoning spell lasts very short and is a round-level spell, but it can be canceled at any time.
Even the ones summoned were not real monsters, but projections similar to Zhao Xu and the others.
At this time, a celestial owl with white feathers all over its body stood in front of Zhao Xu, its eyes looking forward proudly.
Among Arthur's owl species, the owl in front of him is the one that can participate in battle.
The body length is nearly tens of centimeters, and its wings and arms are as high as two meters when spread out.
At the same time, this one is still blessed with the "Heaven Template", which corresponds to the "Purgatory Creature Template" that Zhao Xu saw before.
The abilities of celestial creatures also change with their own life dice.
The one in front of me has no damage reduction, only 5 points of acid, cold, and electricity resistance, and it also has the ability to destroy evil once a day.
But none of this could change the fact that the challenge level of the Celestial Owl in front of him was only a quarter.
That is to say, this projection creature summoned with a spell slot has its own combat power close to zero.
Furthermore, spells have to be cast throughout the round and last for a short time, so spells to summon monsters are useless spells, and unless specifically optimized, they are difficult to use successfully.
Including the current Zhao Xu, who summoned the heavenly owl, but only used it to explore the flight path.
The owl opened its snow-white arms and flapped its wings forward.
Celestial creatures have their own dark vision, which does not affect their ability to see in the dark at all.
However, the heavenly owl had only flown less than three meters when suddenly a lightning beam as thick as a bucket suddenly pierced the night sky and fell directly from the tops of everyone's heads.
In an instant, the celestial owl disappeared without a trace.
"Three-ring spell, lightning beam." Zhao Xu grinned, helpless.
Naturally, the owl was not teleported away, but was killed on the spot by the lightning beam just now.
The objects they summoned were energy projections, so naturally there were no bones left.
He didn't even have time to scream, it was a bit faster than Zhao Xu expected.
He once used Lightning Beam, a 10-60 (10D6) spell with similar damage power to Fireball. In that underground lair, he cleared a large number of mutant scorpions blocking the road.
"This means flying is prohibited here." Vivian added.
Zhao Xu looked a little solemn and nodded.
It's okay if I can't fly, I just don't know what the punishment and prohibition rules are.
"Then you follow me, we walk side by side, you look in front and I look behind." Zhao Xu ordered.
"Yeah." Vivian nodded seriously.
In less than a moment, Zhao Xu and the two walked forward for about 20 meters, still unable to see the opposite side with the torches in their hands.
"It's weird." Zhao Xu couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Suddenly, Vivian suddenly stopped and turned around like dancing to protect Zhao Xu.
At this time, in front of them, a tall and large constructed creature was waving its arm and slamming it down towards Zhao Xu.
Clay Golem!
Magic immunity!
