"Teacher, long time no see."
Zhao Xu, who used a spiritual link to communicate with the other party, immediately started communicating with his mentor Antinoya.
As soon as he finished speaking, Antinoya's body appeared faintly next to Zhao Xu, and his presence was obviously located instantly.
"You're not very safe in this state."
Antinoya frowned slightly.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Xu had some questions.
At this time, the two of them appeared on a hill, with an excellent view.
Naturally, they are also watched by nearby Earth-travelers. However, no one dared to come forward and disturb them. In the eyes of these people, Zhao Xu and Antinoya, who appeared out of thin air, were not much different from the legendary immortals in mythology.
However, this kind of attention has no impact on either of them, let alone care about it.
Zhao Xu, who traveled through four or five areas in a day, had already seen countless people's looks of shock, admiration, jealousy, and envy in just a few hours. He was not surprised at all.
"Have you forgotten that you humans have lost all protection of your psychic abilities?" Antinoya said softly.
At this moment, the crowd watching below, especially the players, couldn't help but guess what the two mage men and women who suddenly appeared and seemed to know each other were communicating with each other.
Even if it is any door, it means that two of them are fourth-ring mages or above.
Basically, during this day, after solving the basic safety issues, the Earth travelers also began to urgently need to know everything about Arthur.
The "top priority" is the entire adventurer career system and the monster system.
People like Zhao Xu and Antinoya who don't have armor piercing skills are mage and warlock professions.
If a soldier and an ordinary civilian both wear armor, they may not notice any difference for a while.
But the "spell" of the caster became a very unique "existence" after everyone really traveled through it.
Players have also begun to realize that throughout the wilderness, they can train other civilian travelers into warriors, rangers, rogues, etc.
But don't even think about the spellcaster profession. This is simply not something that can be replicated by humans.
"soul."
Zhao Xu also considered this word silently.
He has already enjoyed the power of the magic control spell.
When he went to find his parents before, even if he encountered provocation, he could still easily control the other person's mind and end the conflict with them.
Players before time travel did not think so. On the one hand, their magic control spells could not affect the protected players. On the other hand, many of their magic control spells were aimed at humanoid creatures, so most monsters would not eat them.
Charm control spells have naturally become unpopular spells among mage players. Some mages even directly oppose spell control spells in order to specialize in a school and have an extra spell slot.
"Teacher, do you mean that there is a possibility of me being controlled?" Zhao Xu said speculatively.
"That's right, for example, some of the teaching content of the association uses rituals and various complicated encryption methods to prevent it from being leaked under the influence of high-level mage's spells that can read memories or manipulate minds,"
Antinoya concluded, "So in a moment, I have to find a treasure for you to wear. You are not allowed to take it off until you reach the eighth level and can cast the mind barrier yourself."
In a few words, she filled up a key loophole for Zhao Xu.
"Also, did you know that Arthur has no less than a hundred forces that have sneaked into the entire wilderness and death land." Antinoya raised his head slightly and looked at the plain with only wild grass under the hill.
"It's just that the goddess of magic convinced the other gods, so she promised you that as long as you can control it, that is Yanan, and that is your territory."
"So now there is probably a vacuum within a thousand miles of your association's location, so the goddess's priests will rush over to assist you."
After hearing this, Zhao Xu frowned a little.
In this way, these forces are realistic enough, and they can save people within the designated scope.
"Humph, so Zhongxia, you still have a heavy responsibility now. The lives and deaths of hundreds of millions of people around you hang on your shoulders."
After listening, Zhao Xu also sighed, "According to my caster level, even if I produce food 24 hours a day, I can only produce enough food for 20 million people a day."
An incredible data was spit out gently in Zhao Xu's mouth, but it seemed so ordinary.
If the people below who are still hungry hear this, they will definitely shout something outrageous.
Because at this moment, many time travelers have already taken advantage of their old farming skills and started digging for wild vegetables underground. This skill, which might have been discriminated against before time travel, has suddenly become the most popular non-professional ability.
However, these wild vegetables that have been infected by negative energy are so wilted that they can't even lift their heads, not to mention they are slightly poisonous.
If the food has not been "purified by the magic of priests", ordinary people can barely fill their stomachs by eating it, but it will also easily accumulate toxins.
It's equivalent to pushing back the time of death slightly.
Thinking like this, Zhao Xu looked at Antinoya.
In other words, according to Antinoya's caster level of over 70, if no new war spells were developed, one day's food production would double the rations for a population of 40 million.
Together with him, it accounts for less than 1% of the entire human population, which is a drop in the bucket.
"So let me ask you a question now."
Speaking, Antinoya looked at Zhao Xu.
"Are you willing to let Yanan become one of the countries of the Mage Association in exchange for Mystra's full assistance?" Antinoya said, with an understatement, but it seemed that the matter had nothing to do with her.
"I have already joined the Spell Guard Organization. The affairs of the Mage Association are naturally my business. I accept this."
Zhao Xu had guessed at this moment, because this was the situation Wang Ningwei had faced in her previous life.
"Why did you agree so easily?" Antinoya was a little surprised.
"You have to know that before the establishment of the Eastern Earth Empire, in order to ensure the purity of the Nine Swords, they completely rejected the help of the entire Mage Association. This also gave the Eastern Earth Empire its independence today and will not be subject to any interference. The thirteen surnames behind the scenes are decided by Dongtu."
Zhao Xu shook his head, "I don't have the idea that I have to do it."
As he said this, he looked at the earth travelers below. There was no shortage of former middle- and upper-class people among them.
There are entrepreneurs who have passed the review and are about to harvest leeks after passing the listing approval, there are also powerful people from ministries and commissions who participated in formulating policies and policies and came from prestigious universities, and there are also many coders who have climbed up the dragon gate to achieve financial freedom by relying on the golden age of the Internet.
In front of them at this moment, their lives are about to be rewritten. The only things they can still rely on are their previous interpersonal relationships and the "career opportunities" that their bodies are suitable for.
"So I don't think, if I don't get it, I might as well ruin it all."
Zhao Xu put his hands behind his back, "If the person coming today is another senior executive of the Floating City, even one from the Seven Giants, then I will hesitate."
"Only if you come as mentor, I won't doubt you at all." Zhao Xu said with emotion.
"That's nice to say."
Antinoya's face instantly looked like a blooming peach blossom in April, but the reserve in her heart made her gently turn to the other side.
"But you have completely traveled through time and become a part of this world. I haven't seen you send text messages to communicate with me."
At this time, Zhao Xu had already resigned and said: "Teacher, when you were in the Nine Hells, I sent text messages from time to time to communicate with you."
"It's just that you told me at the time that although there is a 5% failure rate in sending messages to other worlds, there are some special places where it will increase dramatically. After many failures, I waited for you, mentor, to come to me later."
Antinoya shook her head even more at this time, "Haha, at the beginning of time travel, I braved the disapproval of the world and deliberately laughed at you, okay!"
"Then I really want to thank you, mentor." Zhao Xu got angry as he said this.
At that time, the cold mechanical voice had announced that starting from midsummer, all players' abilities would be able to be substituted into Arthur's.
Later, the female voice of Antinoya suddenly appeared and mentioned his name again. It was completely superfluous. The superposition of the two attracted great attention to him.
It was obvious that it was Antinoya's impromptu idea.
"Forget it, I won't argue with you anymore. Don't worry, accepting Mystra's help will not make your territory lose its independence." Antinoya said.
"Teacher, this is not my territory. This is the territory of humans on earth. I am just standing on the top first." Zhao Xu corrected.
"Do you believe it?" Antinoya chuckled, "Or maybe you ask the people below if they believe it."
"I just believe it." Zhao Xu said with a gentle expression.
"But I also tell you that from the moment you just agreed, Mystra has begun to teleport the mage to Yanan, and will sign a food loan agreement with Wang Ningwei first." Antinoya said.
"However, Yanan, which is protected by the entire Holy Residence, will definitely be able to grow food earlier than other territories in the desolate ruins and achieve self-sufficiency. The association will just lend flowers to the Buddha, which is not a help in times of need."
"What I have to do next is to provide help in times of need." There was a hint of pride in Antinoya's tone.
"Well, is it the treasure trove you just mentioned, mentor?"
Zhao Xu said in surprise, "But isn't the treasure house your own, mentor? It can't be considered as something given to me by the association."
"No, Zhongxia."
Suddenly, Antinoya shook her head. She gently moved her green and white fingers, shaking Zhao Xu's heart.
"My teacher split it in two and gave me the part that represents the arcana, which is the Mage Association. The true and false treasure house was also a cover-up for him, just to hide that this organization is the real key. "
"I am the organization."
