The Truth of Magic

Chapter 430: Survival in a desperate situation

Views:

Zhao Xu had already received the righteous punches from the four elements in turn.

Generally speaking, there are many people who die after being punched by the Lord of Elements.

But those who can take a punch from the three elements without dying can generally withstand a fierce punch from the fourth elemental master with a smile.

At this moment, the masters of the four elements also realized that something was wrong with the mage in front of them.

It is not surprising for the masters of the four elements that low-level mages throw out nine-ring spells at every turn. They have all seen throwing legendary spells before.

But it can be said that it is unique for the opponent to block the attack of the four of them so calmly.

Defense ability is not so easy to improve.

Most mages fought with them just to ensure that they would not be hit by them, using spatial distance in exchange for absolute defense depth.

For a mage, being unable to hit is the real defense.

At this time, the other two demons also rushed over one after another, fighting and biting around the four elements.

Lux's tactic is very simple, using two golems with extremely strong single combat capabilities to complete the battle against the Lord of Elements.

The Lord of Elements who initially chose to merge later chose to attack Zhao Xu separately, mostly for this reason.

After collecting the static physical attack data, Zhao Xu had almost completed his spell at this moment, and immediately headed towards the four elements to activate the spell.

"Advanced arcane fusion (eighth ring)."

In an instant, this warlock spell directly pulled out two other spells that were no higher than the fourth and seventh levels, compressing the two spells into one spell and releasing the time.

"Hammer of Justice (Three Rings of Holiness)!"

"Spell Extremely Effective Hellfire (Level 4 upgraded to Level 7)"

Suddenly, a force hammer flew towards the Lord of the Earth Element who was pulled in front.

However, this spell, which can continuously increase with the caster's level and has no upper limit of damage, fell so lightly behind the surface of the hard rock, causing an aftermath wave and then disappearing.

[Adventurer Zhongxia, you cast "Hammer of Justice" on the Lord of the Earth Element, and the opponent's spell resistance was successfully resisted.]

The hellfire spell exploded suddenly within a few meters of Zhao Xu, and the wave of the explosion covered the three elemental masters who had just come to attack him.

As the aftermath dissipated, they didn't seem to be greatly affected by the aftermath, but they could barely be seen to be slightly injured.

[Adventurer Zhongxia, you cast the extremely effective "Hellfire" on the Lord of Element X, causing 30 points of damage (5D6).]

Three in a row.

This means that this spell has successfully caused rare damage to the three masters of the elements.

Hellfire, a spell from purgatory, is the only spell that ignores saving throws and resistance. It doesn't even belong to fire damage. Even the fire element that is immune to fire damage is still hurt by the explosion.

It's just that 30 points of damage is a bit pitiful for these monsters who often have thousands of health points. This is also a limitation of the Hellfire spell. Although it will not be blocked by various effects, the damage is too low.

This is true even if the maximum effect of the spell is used.

"Lux, is your transformed artifact filled with water?"

Zhao Xu was basically satisfied that the Hellfire spell had been verified, but he couldn't help complaining about the Hammer of Justice, which was offset by spell resistance.

The caster level of this final scroll artifact is actually level 20.

From the information he retrieved before, the spell resistance of the four masters of the elements was at least 42 points, and the ones in front of him were probably even more so.

A level 20 caster would be lucky enough to break through 40 points of spell resistance, so he would naturally be powerless against the master of the four elements.

At this time, he and Lacus were communicating in a tight timeline. It was completely the idea in his heart that sprouted, sparks quickly collided in his mind, and then the exchange of ideas occurred.

"Master, even if I transform into an artifact, it's impossible to exceed the limits of the artifact itself." Lux explained.

"Then your level 20 is too exaggerated." Zhao Xu complained. He himself was more than a 20th level caster just by stacking up caster levels.

"This master, most of the magic items made are based on real caster levels, rather than improvised ones. When Ernest made the final scroll, it was only about level 30, and I barely simulated the power of level 20. It’s already amazing.”

Lux smiled and said, "And mages are the ones who find possibilities out of the impossible."

Zhao Xu remained silent about this.

He had fought against the "Abyssal Fiend" before and used the "Reduce Spell Resistance" spell to weaken the opponent's spell resistance, so high resistance was not a problem.

It's just that there are four Lords of Elements in the field now, each with a minimum of two shots, which means he has to throw spells eight times to reduce the spell resistance of these Lords of Elements to a controllable level.

Zhao Xu could only sigh and wonder if there was any other way.

However, at this moment, the wind element suddenly began to deform and turned into a whirlwind, slamming towards Zhao Xu.

In an instant, the tornado, which was three to four meters wide at the bottom, more than ten meters wide at the top, and more than twenty meters high, directly blew Zhao Xu into the air.

Zhao Xu immediately wanted to break free, but the abilities of the masters of the four elements were always above level 60, which was not something he could pass now.

[Adventurer Zhongxia, you are affected by the whirlwind ability and receive 20 points of damage (4D8).]

Zhao Xu, who was in the tornado, had already felt the huge damage caused by the wind blade. Within a few blows, his robe was torn to pieces, showing sharp wounds.

But Zhao Xu felt something was wrong at this time.

Having used False Life before, he could naturally withstand the 20 points of damage caused by the strong wind.

The problem is that now he is like a doll tumbling in a washing machine, constantly tossing with various eddies, without any time to calm down.

The various tossing around his body even made his head congested with blood, affecting his ability to think.

"Master, you have to perform this kind of reflex dodge every next round. If you fail, you will still suffer the same damage." Lux also noticed the crisis Zhao Xu was in at this time and hurriedly informed him.

At this moment, Zhao Xu was also suddenly swinging his limbs, like a drowning person, constantly spreading his limbs, trying to maintain his balance.

After several failures, he gritted his teeth and began to cast spells forcefully.

The mage still has to solve the problem according to the mage's method.

[Adventurer Zhongxia, your reflex save failed and your spellcasting failed.]

As the spell slot disappeared in his mind.

The spell Zhao Xu intended for did not arrive. Instead, he lost a prepared spell slot.

He actually had to maintain balance to cast spells in the vortex of this tornado!

Isn't this a joke to him? Why can a spell that doesn't require movement be affected by the strong wind

Zhao Xu didn't have the reflex ability of forty or fifty levels, so there was no way he could maintain his balance and stability in this whirlwind of more than sixty levels of difficulty.

And if he didn't cast a spell, he couldn't escape the sweep of this huge whirlwind.

Even if it drags on, if he fails to dodge the wind blades mixed in, dozens of points of life will be lost.

Zhao Xu, who had superimposed health points, could not withstand the third round of wind blade damage.

The scene was completely in a deadlock.

The two demons that could help him were now entangled by several other masters of elements.

Zhao Xu, who lost his ability to cast spells, lost his ability to deal with the situation from the moment he didn't lay a spell for himself that could instantly increase his immunity bonus by dozens of levels.

And the tight time did not allow him to hesitate.

The sound of death's footsteps was so clear to Zhao Xu's ears for the first time.

"Master, do you have anything related to the elements on your body? Let me see if I can activate and communicate with you." Lux also realized that he was in danger and hurriedly suggested.

Zhao Xu suddenly had an idea flash in his mind.

He reached directly into his backpack.

But instead of taking out the original brass treasure box, he took out his "Midsummer's Spell Notes".

In an instant, a sudden change occurred.
