As Zhao Xu spoke, it was obvious that May, who was still a little girl in front of her, could not understand what was happening at this moment.
She just stared blankly at this big brother who had just made the evil dragon disappear.
Zhao Xu smiled at his naivety and then reacted.
When May met Ernest in her previous life, she had already become a shepherdess. Apparently, it was because of the evil dragon's invasion of the town that May lost the support of her parents.
In this kind of countryside, with no parents to rely on and the family's property was destroyed by fire, under such conditions, it was not easy for May to be able to grow up to be a young girl by working as a sheep herder.
In fact, May in history did not meet Zhao Xu. It was most likely that he was swooped and spat out by the dragon, passed out, and was lucky enough to survive.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Xu also sighed.
Even a strong man like May, who once stood at the pinnacle of Arthur, still has a past that is extremely fragile and does not want to be recalled.
But while Zhao Xu was thinking, he couldn't help but wonder about another point - why did he see the original May in Antinoya's memory line
Where is the actual Antinoya at this moment
Logically speaking, looking at May's appearance of being less than six years old, it is estimated that she would have to grow up for another seven or eight years before she would meet the rumored Ernest.
That was also the key time point when the other party officially appeared in Arthur.
Therefore, many ancient history scholars who study ancient mysterious history and theology and religion have raised a suspicion-that is, Ernest is a powerful mage from other "heavens".
Therefore, the other party passed on to Arthur that huge amount of magical knowledge that could not be completed by one person.
Before Ernest, Arthur already had magic, and his knowledge was not systematic at all, scattered and unformed.
So Emperor Ernest was never the inventor of magic.
Even strictly speaking, magic itself is to imitate the "abilities" of powerful mythical creatures, which is why most of today's spells use dragon syllables.
But when Ernest appeared, he added a large number of spells and even sorted out the eight major factions of magic.
His role in magic is like creating words for a language.
In an instant, Zhao Xu contacted the key point of Antinoya becoming a legendary mage at the age of 20.
It stands to reason that she became the legendary mage just over ten years after she came into contact with Ernest, so it is very possible that he was not born at this moment.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xu directly opened his palms and made a fist into the void!
Then the arcane energy spurted out, and then surrounded Zhao Xu's whole body like a goddess scattering flowers.
The fourth-level spell "Biological Location"!
The invisible halo of exploration pushed around, and Zhao Xu turned his body little by little, facing all directions of Arthur at this moment.
As long as Antinoya is within the range of the spell, he can successfully sense it the moment he faces the other party.
This spell, whose casting material is hound fur, can locate a certain group of creatures, or even a specific creature, provided that the caster must have observed the opponent at close range.
Zhao Xu, who had been seeing Antinoya day and night for several months, had no problem at all.
However, he wandered around like this for a whole circle without receiving any feedback from the spell.
Antinoya is not in this world.
In other words, she is currently protected by a spell that blocks prophecy, such as "avoid detection".
Even "transformation" that simply changes the body or the "illusion" of illusion can deceive this spell.
Of course, flowing water will also block the effect of the spell, so if Antinoya is swimming in the stream at this moment, there is nothing that Zhao Xu can do.
However, Zhao Xu, who had realized his initial judgment, didn't care. He stood up slightly and looked up into the distance.
Under the sunlight, the lake surface shines as clearly as the ice surface, the harvested wheat fields glow with a golden shimmer like a quiet and beautiful pastoral nursery, and the mountains further away are mysterious and mysterious under the thick gray fog that reaches the sky.
The clouds in the sky are intertwined and spread out in all directions like brocade ribbons.
All this was in sharp contrast to the blazing town in front of him. Black smoke billowed out from the manor houses piled with golden wheat ears, and the air seemed to be moaning.
Along with the collapsed buildings, the ground shook and shook, and eventually the town's suspension bridge began to collapse and fell into ruins.
Zhao Xu witnessed the history of Ms. May’s family’s destruction.
So he can also wait for the history of Ms. May to encounter a turning point in her life.
Although he didn't understand why he entered this world, it was possible that Antinoya hadn't even been born yet.
But he no longer cares.
Magic is like the wind, always by his side, and he is fearless in any world.
After thinking about it, Zhao Xu bent down slightly and said to the little girl, "In May, I'm sorry that I have to go to the future to see what happened. I can't stay here to witness your growth bit by bit."
Then he gently moved the tiniest day hand on the watch.
In an instant, everything around him continued to move forward like a rapid frame jump. The ruins of the small town in front of him gradually extinguished the fire in Zhao Xu's field of vision. The wreckage disappeared. Timbers were transported, and the foundations, structures, and houses were gradually rebuilt. rise.
For ten years, in one week, Zhao Xu witnessed the reshaping of this small town that had just been destroyed in history.
During this process, even if he observed it casually, he saw that in May, due to the betrayal of a servant, the family's land was sold at a low price, and was eventually taken in by a family of relatives living outside the town who had no children.
However, when the other party successfully gave birth to a child a few years later, the level of food in the family in May also declined day by day. From rice porridge at first to black hard bread later, she never received a piece of new clothes every year.
Her job of helping her adoptive mother wash knitted clothes for wealthy families in the town also turned into shepherding sheep for the rancher.
Even in a few years, May will be promised to a forty-year-old milkmaid on the ranch to become his wife, just because she paid a few gold coins as a bride price to May's adoptive parents.
And Zhao Xu became hard-hearted this time and watched all this happen.
For fear of missing Ernest's arrival, he didn't even dare to use his watch to skip time, and just observed silently in this small town, like a stone monument.
During this time, Zhao Xu lived on a nearby grassy hill. The "Eagle Eye Technique" was basically projected 24 hours a day on the area where sheep were grazed in May, just like closed-circuit television. .
Zhao Xu silently built a simple wooden house on the top of a nearby oak tree. He usually lay in a "hammock" on the branch of the tree. While thinking about the mystery of the spell, he observed the surrounding situation.
By touching this tree, Zhao Xu can see the scene around any oak tree at an infinite distance through the third-ring druid's unique magic "Forest Eye".
No matter how far the distance is, Zhao Xu is just watching the selected plant of the same type.
This change of spell is also more secure and will not disturb various shielding detection spells.
However, Wuyue was not protected by magic at this moment, so Zhao Xu observed her, more directly using "detection", the mage's fourth-ring arcane spell.
Even Zhao Xu used it so frequently that he was too lazy to use the professional ability of supernatural spells to save casting materials.
Because a bag of falcon eyes had been placed at his feet, and nitric acid, copper powder, and zinc powder were sprinkled and mixed inside.
At the same time, there is a highly polished silver mirror more than one meter high in Zhao Xu's tree house. Once the spell is completed, the mirror will reveal three meters of details around the May he has chosen to observe.
If the priest casts this spell, he will watch it through a silver basin filled with holy water worth at least 100 gold coins. As for the druids, they use natural pools for viewing.
A scrying spell enables the targeted creature to be seen and heard, but the spell only succeeds if the target fails a Will save.
Fortunately, before meeting Ernest in May, she had no chance of successfully exempting herself from Zhao Xu.
In particular, how well Zhao Xu understands the subject and whether he owns the other party's items all affect the difficulty of this spell's saving throw.
If he knew nothing, the difficulty of his saving throw would definitely be reduced by 10 levels.
Some second-hand information will be reduced by 5 levels if you have heard of the other party, while direct information will have no effect if you have seen it. As for the familiarity level, it is 5 levels higher in difficulty.
There are even images that can be 2 levels higher, objects or clothes of the other party that are 4 levels higher, and body parts like hair and nails that are 10 levels higher.
Therefore, Arthur's spellcasters actually pay great attention to the traces and residues left behind by themselves. If someone collects them accidentally, it is as if there is no spell protection to block the prophecy, and it is likely that they will always be under the surveillance of others, and even Become an introduction to other spells.
Zhao Xu, who was almost numb, also routinely observed the sheep herding process in May with a silver mirror.
He has also spread out the secret eye spells of the fourth ring and is doing directional patrols.
As for the area that he rarely visited in May, he also used the five-ring "Peeping Magic Eye" spell to plant more than thirty semi-real magic balls.
These small balls patrolled according to his instructions, and once they encountered a designated situation, they immediately returned to tell him.
But today still seems to be a calm day. May drove the sheep to the hilly slopes in the north early, repeating the work day after day in boredom.
Wuyue, who is already more than ten years old, has already started to grow. She is used to the harsh world and knows that beauty is a disaster for herself, so she doesn't wash herself much on weekdays. She always dresses in a shabby look, but still Even more despised.
At this time, May May was herding sheep repeatedly, and Zhao Xu was also watching her herding sheep repeatedly.
Even when the sun sets and the sheep are driven back to the sheep pen in May, Zhao Xu will turn to the early morning of the next day.
On the one hand, this long and boring wait tortured Zhao Xu's heart.
On the other hand, he had a vague feeling that the day when Ernest came to Arthur was not far away, so he basically couldn't miss the scene every month.
Suddenly, the silver mirror that was repeating yesterday's scene flashed with white light.
Zhao Xu's eyes immediately stung and he couldn't help crying.
Blind
Zhao Xu immediately flashed this idea. Although he could not imagine what a level of impact it would be to be blinded through a mirror, it did not prevent him from immediately carrying out self-rescue.
"Remove blindness!"
The vast majority of negative buff removal spells remain quietly in the third-level magic list.
Therefore, once a priest reaches the third level, he can already become an excellent doctor. By removing diseases, they can even cure all diseases.
The soft recovery energy light group instantly penetrated into his eyelids through Zhao Xu's "contact", and the original stinging feeling disappeared little by little.
The effect of the Remove Blindness spell corresponds to that of the Remove Deafness spell. It cannot regenerate the blind person, but it can remove the damaged part.
Zhao Xu's vision recovered instantly, and the surrounding light curtain was re-projected into his eyeballs, allowing him to see everything around him clearly.
The originally clear and thorough reflection of the mirror appeared cracks like snowflakes, and the sound of "sizzling" was accompanied by it.
May's figure in the mirror also shattered into countless tiny pieces.
"Boom!"
Thunder suddenly sounded like a bolt from the blue, as if it was vibrating next to the eardrums, and Zhao Xu almost had to add another spell to remove his deafness.
In the end what happened
Avatar
Zhao Xu kept shouting deep in his heart.
Because when he looked up, the entire sky had turned pitch black, as if the dusk phase had been skipped directly.
At the same time, the wind around him kept howling, blowing against the ground desperately, making him teetering on the top of the tree. The illusion that originally concealed the existence of the hut had also been terminated.
Suddenly, mysterious whispers came from the surroundings, which sounded like they were coming from an inexplicable empty place in the valley. They merged with the continuous thunder in the sky.
In these hills, in this land that has been enveloped in the darkness of night, it is wandering and rippling.
"Teleportation!"
No matter how cautious Zhao Xu was, he couldn't suppress the entanglement and curiosity in his heart at this moment. He immediately activated the teleportation technique and went straight to the place where May was last discovered.
In less than a second, the discomfort after the teleportation energy faded, and the familiar feeling of body manipulation crawled back into Zhao Xu's body little by little.
Zhao Xu appeared behind Wuyue, on the hills where she was grazing.
The surrounding sheep had already been disturbed by the roar just now, and they were all kneeling on the ground, unable to move.
What's even more exaggerated is that although her life was very difficult and rough, May, who still maintained a noble and clear heart, was now crawling on the ground.
She seemed to be kissing the earth.
But everyone around her understood that she was kneeling before the king who came to this world.
Zhao Xu also raised his head slightly, mustering up all the courage in his heart, trying to look at the man who had come to Arthur and was destined to leave more than a fifth chapter in the book Arthur's Magic History—
Ernest.
Four updates tomorrow.
