When Zhao Xu had a traditional vegetarian meal in the morning according to family tradition the next day, he just excused himself from being tired and stayed at home without going out.
His parents, on the other hand, were preparing to go out to visit relatives and friends and business partners with the "gifts" they had bought and piled up.
After Zhao Xu listened to a round of instructions and brushed off his parents' news about "Anti Noya", he went back to bed and put on his helmet.
And since Nan Xiaowei knew that he was Arthur's "Zhongxia", her "favorability" and "respect" for him immediately exploded, and she almost worshiped Zhao Xu as an idol.
This also made Zhao Xu couldn't help but knock the other party on the head. He finally understood why so many young girls lost their virginity.
As the simulation helmet connected to Arthur's network, Zhao Xu's vision slowly returned to clarity, and he suddenly realized that there was a vast expanse of white in front of him.
The sudden snowfall of winter is coming again.
In less than a day, there was a layer of goose-feather-like winter snow on the ground that could reach up to the ankles.
The bone-chilling cold air hit his face instantly, making Zhao Xu, who was well-dressed in the game, still feel the bitter cold of winter.
When I traveled through my previous life, it was early winter. Under the freezing cold winter, many poor people were still living in the open and had no way out of that winter.
"You're finally here?" Antinoya was in the carriage at the moment, looking at him through the curtains.
"This snow is really heavy." Zhao Xu sighed, "It has only been one day since we were online, and the entire Falling Star Lake has become covered with snow."
"It's not your fault." Antinoya mocked.
"Um?"
Zhao Xu's surprised voice had just come out, and he recalled it.
At the beginning of the Battle of Falling Star Lake, in order to prevent the corpses from spreading the plague under the heat, he directly cast the nine-ring spell "Finbul Winter", which instantly caused the entire cold wave to come to the world along with winter.
The moment he painted the entire empty plain in front of Falling Star Lake into a snow-white battlefield was the first time Arthur's players realized that the "power of spells" could actually be so terrifying.
"Yes, blame me."
Zhao Xu sighed. At this time, he looked through the city wall of Falling Star Lake Town and couldn't help but understand.
He cast spells to prevent players and even villagers in the town from contracting the plague and dying.
At the same time, due to the magic, more poor people who are unable to purchase coal and firewood for heating are bound to die this winter because of this "winter" that is even colder than in previous years.
Zhao Xu's eyes couldn't help but become profound.
Perhaps, in the future, he would have to be more cautious before releasing spells like this that can affect the environment for a long time.
"Come on, don't worry." Antinoya said, "Realize it, it's easy to cast a spell like 'Finbul Winter', but it's very difficult to lift it."
Her eyes became a little dim as she spoke, "Every time we mages cast a spell, we are carrying the weight of life. The spell itself leaves our mark on this world."
"The difference is whether you carve out a magnificent miraculous landscape, or whether you destroy life and make everything barren."
Zhao Xu was silent after listening.
But when he turned around, he realized that the horse in front of the original "carriage" had disappeared.
"Where's the horse?"
Why is there only a car left
Could it be that Antinoya's promise, which she patted her small curved chest, was slapped in the face just one day later
"What are you thinking? No one in this world can steal a horse in front of me." Antinoya said angrily, "If I let that ordinary Mal stay here, how would he survive, so I would have Just send it back."
"All right."
Upon seeing this, Zhao Xu first repeated the old routine of "stacking caster levels" and then continued to cast spells.
"Phantom Pony!"
Today, Zhao Xu doesn't feel distressed at all when he casts the three-ring spell.
In an instant, a large, semi-realistic horse-shaped creature took shape in the cloud. Its smooth black head and body, coupled with gray mane and tail, looked just like a normal war horse. Only its limbs were insubstantial. The smoke shape reveals the nature of the summoned object.
With the blessing of Zhao Xu's caster level of over 20, the Phantom Horse's speed directly reached the upper limit, with a sprint speed of up to fifty meters per second.
At the same time, it can carry more than two hundred kilograms in addition to the weight of ordinary people, which is enough to serve as a labor force for pulling goods.
At this time, the phantom pony originally obtained the "flying ability" because it exceeded the 13th level of caster level. However, when Zhao Xu pointed at the carriage in front of him, he lowered his head and walked over to hitch the frame of the carriage.
Zhao Xu took advantage of the situation and climbed into the driver's seat of the carriage, sighing with emotion: "Summoning a phantom pony at random is indeed much more cost-effective than raising a war horse."
This is especially true from the perspective of battle damage.
In Arthur, once the player's war horse dies, the feeling of distress is the same as in reality when a new car is scrapped in a car accident.
"Teacher, if I apply a levitation technique to the carriage, wouldn't we be able to fly?"
At this time, Antinoya in the curtain said calmly, "Levitation is a minute-level spell that cannot last. If you give up these spell slots, I don't mind."
When Zhao Xu heard this, he started to consider it directly.
What Antinoya said may seem difficult to achieve, but under the condition that he has "spell delay", a second-level spell can last for nearly an hour.
He can really achieve this.
"Hey, look." At this time, a wanderer who took advantage of the heavy snow to secretly lay a trap on the hillside shook his companions in disbelief.
"What's wrong? Keep your voice down, and don't disturb the snow fox nearby. The nobles in the city have paid a lot of money to buy a snow fox fur." The hunter next to the wanderer ignored it and continued to delve into the trap in his hands. .
When another layer of snow falls, the animal trap they laid will become extremely secretive.
"No, look, it's a supernatural incident!" The wanderer grabbed his companion and continued shouting.
At this time, it was in the distance of their sight.
In that vast white snowfield without any dirt, a fast-running war horse was struggling to drag the carriage behind it.
It's like a high-speed train above the snowfield.
However, what surprised them was that no matter how much they rubbed their eyes, they could not see the hoof prints or ruts behind the fast-running carriage.
Just like the sky and the sky.
"It's really fun." Zhao Xu shouted while driving the carriage that was speeding.
At this time, because the speed of the car was too fast, the sharp cold wind rushed towards his face on the spot, and the wind and frost poured into his mouth on the spot.
If it weren't for the invisible armor provided by Zhao Xu's own mage armor, which blocked most of the ice and snow wind knives, his face would have been frozen to pieces at this moment.
"You are playing very hard." Antinoya noticed that after the car floated and lost ground friction, its speed on the snowy field was comparable to that of a speeding car on the highway.
"This is a man's pleasure." Zhao Xu couldn't help shouting loudly, otherwise it would be covered up by the whistling of the wind and snow.
Just like many girls can't understand why a thirty-year-old man can play games so enthusiastically.
This is when Zhao Xu saw Antinoya and Vivian sticking their heads out. Looking at their angry and happy faces, Zhao Xu couldn't help but joke, "If there is no desire, men will definitely tend to play with men. This is the romance of men.”
"Zhongxia, I don't even know when you became a man." After Antinoya said that, she closed the car curtain directly. As soon as she poked her head out, the cold wind blew her face red.
Suddenly, Zhao Xu suddenly pulled the horse's reins.
A snow-white figure covered with ice and snow suddenly appeared a few meters in front of him.
Zhao Xu was extremely sure that the other party was not there at all just now.
Otherwise, he would have been able to shift his position and pass by the opponent.
But now the other party suddenly appeared, and under the rapid speed of the carriage of a hundred kilometers, it was impossible to stop immediately.
In one second, he is bound to hit the opponent!
Under the momentum of this carriage, he didn't even have to doubt that the other party would definitely be smashed to pieces.
This is a tragedy that no matter how skilled the driver is, it is unavoidable!
Time passed so fast that he had no time to cast a spell, and Antinoya in the carriage had already bumped into him after hearing his exclamation.
At this critical moment, Zhao Xu's eyes became extremely indifferent, like a proud god looking down at the world.
"Swift burst!"
Four rings of arcana!
This spell is the key fourth-ring spell that Zhao Xu came into contact with.
After he used it, even if the blade was less than half a centimeter away from his throat, he could rely on the burst of time to calmly cast a "standard action time" spell.
At this moment, an extremely light snowflake was about to fall on the bridge of Zhao Xu's nose, but it was unable to fall.
The time in the hourglass is as frozen as a picture at this moment.
"Bigby's punch!"
Zhao Xu acted decisively at this moment and cast this spell that could knock people down!
The attack punch is not outstanding among Bigby's fist series, but it just fits the situation at hand.
As long as the person who suddenly appeared fell down on the snow, their floating carriage would be able to pass through unimpeded, and it would not crush the other person because of its suspension.
However.
Just when Zhao Xu had already seen the traces of the "Strike Fist" he had used, he saw the glowing fist itself growing as big as a human torso, condensing and forming in front of the opponent.
Then came the violent swing.
Exactly.
The strength of the fist was released on the spot and disappeared without a trace.
Even the car was directly pulled by a huge force and suddenly braked on the spot. No sparks were seen, but the dull sound of braking could be heard.
Just like that, the Phantom Colt and the carriage stopped immediately when they were about to touch this mysterious man.
I saw the other party gracefully take off the hood covering his head and bend down slightly.
"Please allow me to introduce myself, the legendary mage—"
