The Truth of Magic

Chapter 520: Belief in Death, the last words of the dead

Views:

"What do you want to do?"

Seeing Zhao Xu slowly walking into the corpse, the tall and thin captain scolded him on the spot.

After eliminating the chaos in the first stage, they have slowly brought the situation under control after the arrival of this night patrol team.

Naturally, we won’t let idle people intervene rashly.

However, Zhao Xu casually raised the mage badge on his hand, leaving the captain stunned for a few seconds.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Xu himself crouched down and looked at the completely pale corpse.

Unless ordinary people encounter a car accident or an elder dies of old age, they may not be able to see a corpse once in their lifetime.

But in Arthur, even if he usually signs up for the "Spring Tour" and only enjoys the scenery in the game without participating in the battle, he will still see dead bodies.

Arthur has never been a quiet and peaceful paradise.

At this time, Zhao Xu put on his gloves and observed the corpse in front of him.

He has a "medical" skill level that he studied because of his priest level, and he was doing some basic inspections at this time.

The coroner who originally wanted to stop Zhao Xu was stunned when he saw this scene. He mistakenly thought that he was the same coroner and did not take much action.

"Master." Lux said eagerly despite the sudden silence.

"What's wrong?"

Zhao Xu was surprised, how could Lux in the standby state make a sound if it was just the corpse of a civilian.

"Master, you haven't taken care of your followers recently." Lux educated Zhao Xu with righteous words.

"You mean Yoona?"

Zhao Xu was a little enlightened, "I have a lot of people making noise during the day, so I can't leave her alone at night and ask her to come to the room for a private chat."

"Not to mention it is now midnight, she has already gone offline to sleep."

"I've convinced you, Big Wood." Lux raised her voice, "Master, if you don't win over some believers, are you preparing to become the God of Death in the future?"

Hearing this, Zhao Xu also felt slightly moved.

Tiamat and Bahamut, the dragon gods, may not be very powerful, but their ability to survive is rare in this world.

They have experienced Ragnarok three times and have remained motionless to this day.

On the contrary, various "gods of killing", "gods of murder", "gods of strife", "gods of the dead" and so on that are related to the god of death are replaced quickly.

The Death God line seems to be a "god line" that was born to be cursed by the gods.

As a "priest" who is born with several swords pointing to the pinnacle, there is no one who truly dares to fully control "death".

Judging from the current Arthur, only a few gods each control a part and dare not go deep into it rashly.

"Lux, when I touch you, it feels like I'm in a trap."

At this time, Zhao Xu opened the mouth of the deceased through his gloves to check, while complaining in his heart, "After you got this fragment of the Death God's godhead, you have been coming and going, and now you are urging me to quickly consolidate my followers."

"But fishing should at least let people know what kind of fish may be harvested in this fish pond."

When Lux heard this, she felt a little embarrassed, "Master, this is mainly because I was in a state of consolidation and exploration before, so I can't tell you everything."

"But now, I'm basically conscious."

"Master, please first consolidate Zheng Xinyun's base and let her know whose pastor she is."

Zhao Xu couldn't help but ask, "Did you bring her to Falling Star Town?"

"Hehe, yes. Because Master, you should have done this earlier, but I'm surprised that you have been slow to take action after accepting the other party."

Zhao Xu felt a bit bitter in his heart, but he did not explain it to Lacus.

In the previous life, Zheng Xinyun was the one who died in Falling Star Town.

In his heart, there is a kind of "taboo" against the recurrence of fate.

"Then she will be online tomorrow. Let me go and have a showdown with her." Zhao Xu said.

"Oh my god." Lux suddenly let out a mournful cry.

The people around him also saw that Zhao Xu seemed to be shaken suddenly, and thought that he had found a key clue, so they couldn't help but poke their heads in to observe.

"Why are you so surprised again?" Zhao Xu was helpless.

"Master, if you use Zhong Xia's identity to face Zheng Xinyun tomorrow, I guarantee that you will not be able to consolidate this believer in your life."

"That's right." Zhao Xu understood in his heart.

If you are too familiar, you will naturally not feel reverence.

It's as if he is so familiar with Antinoya now that it is difficult for outsiders to have the same sense of "worship" for the legendary mage that outsiders see in her.

At first, Zhao Xu saw Sisylvina from a thousand years ago before she became a god, and she also had a friendly attitude towards him.

Zhao Xu is definitely a "light believer" to the goddess of magic.

"Moreover, if you take action personally, then I guarantee that you will wait until you are crucified as the God of Death."

Lux warned, "So from this moment on, Master, you have to create a 'clone' of the God of Death, including the grace to Zheng Xinyun, and you have to use this image to execute it."

"Slowly, after Zheng Xinyun helps you spread the branches of believers, you will be able to control the 'false god of death' behind the scenes. In this way, even if the god of death is blocked, master, you can escape unscathed."

"But if this happens and you have to lose your arm to survive, your followers will probably be able to save Zheng Xinyun."

But when Zhao Xu heard this, he surprisingly felt calm in his heart.

He has realized that if he is a farmer, then the believers are the crops in the farmland.

What he needs is to harvest crops in the golden season of abundance.

Rather, I deeply love these crops.

This is also the most naked relationship between gods and believers.

Spread divine grace and dedicate faith.

As for the outermost layer, it naturally needs to be packaged with "ideas".

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu also nodded, "I understand. Next, I will complete this matter."

Zhao Xu, who had some direction in his heart, regained his composure and looked at the corpse in front of him.

The wife of the deceased beside her cried so loudly that her linen clothes were even wet with tears.

"If it doesn't work, come down."

"What kind of hero?"

Seeing that Zhao Xu had not taken action or given a specific plan for a long time, everyone in the audience began to feel dissatisfied.

"Do you have any ideas?" The coroner on the side also saw that Zhao Xu was a passerby with good "medical" skills, maybe a "physician", and his tone was still somewhat polite.

"It's useless." At this time, the barbarian player Nulang came over and stood behind him.

His wide-open eyes, similar to those of an orc, seemed to detect the essential truth of the case.

"The thinking mode of lycanthropes is different from that of us humans."

This barbarian player is essentially the soul of human beings. "They are discriminated against and will attack humans to spread the disease of lycanthropy and expand the number of infected lycanthropes."

"Generally, such attacks are often random attacks and leave little traces."

Barbarian Ang Lang concluded, "I believe you know better than me that most of the most difficult cases on earth to solve are random killings. On the contrary, those who commit crimes committed by acquaintances are always caught accurately."

These words were not complicated, and everyone present nodded unconsciously.

This also means that this "murder incident" has cast another shadow.

As everyone knows, at this time Zhao Xu turned around and said, "What you said does make sense. Therefore, I need to ask the deceased."

When Barbarian Ang Lang heard this, he couldn't help laughing, "Don't be stupid, the souls of the dead have returned to the Kingdom of God at this moment. Even if you can teleport to another world, you can still find it among the countless souls. deceased?"

"Not to mention, you can't even enter the Kingdom of God."

Zhao Xu showed his white teeth at this moment, "We mages are the ones who make the impossible possible."

"The deceased talked?" The coroner couldn't help but exclaimed, suddenly thinking of this possibility.

But he immediately hesitated, "This is a three-ring magic."

However, at this moment, Zhao Xu was using the four abilities of "quick spell casting", "multitalented spell caster", "silence ring (silent spell casting)", and "concealed spell casting (concealed spell casting action)" on the spot.

To outsiders, he just snapped his fingers gently, which seemed a bit complicated.

There was no sign of any spellcasting at all.

Even if there were mage players present, they did not recognize any signs of casting spells.

"What are the characteristics of the person who killed you?" Zhao Xu asked, looking directly at the deceased.

Player Nu Lang, who noticed that there were no traces on the body, couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Dance God? Or are you talking about a witchcraft ritual?"

The civilians of Arthur may still be blinded and stay away from magic, but the adventurers are all aware of magic and believe in the power of magic.

So it is very clear what is needed to cast the spell.

"You need to add some movements when casting a spell." The coroner on the side also corrected Zhao Xu awkwardly.

He thought that Zhao Xu was pretending to cast a spell and had another plan to fish out the murderer.

However.

The next moment, the body that was originally lying on the ground opened and closed its mouth, making a slight sound that was almost like mumbling.

"It was my wife who killed me."

The woman who was lying on the body suddenly changed her face. She said in horror, "It's not me, it's really not me."

Even before the people around her made a sound, she leaned back nervously and collapsed to the ground.

At this time, the barbarian player Nu Lang couldn't see it. He stretched out his thick arm, grabbed Zhao Xu's arm firmly, and glared: "I don't know what tricks you are playing, but your behavior of bullying the widow, In my opinion, it is very shameful.”

But his expression changed immediately.

Because Zhao Xu, who was held by him, didn't move at all.

With a natural strength of 18 points, coupled with Orc's 2 racial adjustment points and a +2 Strength Belt, his strength of over 20 points can completely crush ordinary players.

Unable to accept the anger of this scene, he gritted his teeth!

violent!

Relying on "Rage", the barbarian's special skill, Nu Lang received a 4-point bonus in terms of physical fitness and strength on the spot.

I saw that the muscles all over his body seemed to have swelled and became extremely strong and strong.

With the blessing of these 27 points of powerful power, Nu Lang gritted his teeth and tried desperately to drag Zhao Xu on the ground.

But once again, she was disappointed to find that the man in front of her was still motionless.

Obviously under the influence of his 27 points of strength, a weak low wall will be knocked down by him on the spot.

For the first time, Nu Lang's eyes showed a "ghost" look.

"Ah!" At this time, the deceased's wife made a horrified voice, as if she could not accept the stimulation just now.

"you do not need to worry."

Player Nu Lang quickly turned his head to comfort the other party, but his expression changed instantly.

Including the spectators outside the field, they also let out exclamations one after another.

Those who were close were kicking their legs and rushing towards the outer circle, completely opposite to their initial attitude of watching the excitement.

I saw that the head of the woman whose husband died slowly became like a mouse's head, revealing a protruding and sharp mouth and fine teeth, and rat whiskers also grew on her face.
