The Truth of Magic

Chapter 59: Reading magic

Views:

The next day, after Zhao Xu prepared the spells in the morning, he came to the "Learning Library" of the Floating City early to take a seat and read.

This library is a place where mages who want to improve their knowledge and skills often come. It is directly divided into more than a dozen book areas, which directly correspond to the categories of knowledge and skills.

The library area and collections are very huge, but most mages find a quiet corner to stay, as if they don't want to be disturbed by strangers.

Since yesterday, Zhao Xu has been studying with peace of mind after setting the skill tendencies on the character card page in accordance with Antinoya's request.

When he clicks on the level 1 skill level of all ten categories of knowledge and skills, he can leave.

This is why Zhao Xu couldn't help being surprised when he heard Antinoya's words.

Even if knowledge and skills are a magical skill in adventure, he can't help but read so much.

After upgrading your knowledge and skills, you can perform associative searches in the information panel.

As long as you pass the test, you can obtain some information, depending on the skill level.

It is equivalent to Arthur's version of the academic Baidu search engine.

But even so, many combat systems still don't invest in knowledge and skills.

There are specializations in the arts, and each profession has its own professional skills. Knowledge is the professional skill of the mage.

He can exchange 1 skill point for level 1.

But for warriors, knowledge is a cross-class skill, and you have to spend 2 skill points to upgrade to level 1, which is half the result with half the effort.

After Zhao Xu cast a zero-level spell "Reading Magic" on himself, he quickly opened the occult book he borrowed and started reading, cherishing every second.

Zhao Xu had complained about this countless times yesterday.

These authors who write popular works on mystical science cannot write in simpler common language.

Or dragon language could be used, and they have to use encrypted magic words, as if not doing so would not highlight their identity as mage.

Zhao Xu's own knowledge (occult) skills and spell identification skills are at level zero, so it is risky to read occult books rashly.

As a last resort, Zhao Xu could only use the magic word decoding skill - "Reading Magic" to read it hard.

In this way, his efficiency will not be able to read ten lines at a glance, but can only maintain about one page per minute.

The duration of read magic is 10 minutes per caster level.

His poor level 1 mage naturally only has a level 1 caster level.

This made Zhao Xu memorize all 11 spell slots of arcane magic as "reading magic" today.

When the two hours of reading time are used up, he will have to use a slower interpretation method to read.

The power of many spell effects is determined by the caster level.

If Zhao Xu waits until a level 2 mage to cast it, then he can maintain "reading magic" for 20 minutes, which is much more comfortable.

This can only be blamed on his own low level.

Directly above the library is a light-transmitting glass roof, and there are many eternal magical lighting placed around it.

It's just that Zhao Xu's 17 points of intelligence attributes haven't become real yet, and he can't resist the urge to doze off while reading these occult books.

Compared with learning spells, the incentives for upgrading knowledge and skills are much lower.

This is also the reason why there are not many player mages in the Nuo Library. Most of them are gathered in the magic hall.

Suddenly, Zhao Xu saw Antinoya holding a book full of mysterious symbols on the cover, sitting diagonally opposite him and reading the book.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but said in surprise: "Teacher, do you also need to read a book?"

Although Zhao Xu has never been able to see Antinoya's true face, he can only identify it through the vague face shrouded in the dimness.

But after spending this time together, even if Antinoya changed her robes, he could immediately recognize her.

"I haven't used up the skill points at this level yet, so naturally I have to read a book to use them up." Antinoya said casually, and at the same time began to flip through the books in his hand.

There are three warning stickers attached to the cover of the book in Antinoya's hand.

When he came in yesterday, he was warned by the administrator not to read books with warning stickers beyond the advanced level.

The number of warning stickers in Antinoya's hand may only be accessible to the legendary level.

"Teacher, you can retrieve most of the information, and you still need to upgrade your knowledge?" Zhao Xu asked in confusion.

Antinoya glanced at Zhao Xu, "You don't know?"

"What do you know?" Zhao Xu looked around and made sure that there was almost no one around.

Most public places like the Floating City have blocked prophecy detection methods, so eavesdropping is not that easy.

"This is not a secret. If you want to become a legendary mage, there are requirements for the skill of knowledge (mystery). And it also determines the number of legendary spells you have." Antinoya said.

"What's the request?" Zhao Xu's ears almost stood up.

"Are you able to cast level nine arcane spells?"

Zhao Xu shook his head, "Not yet."

"Then why do you ask so many questions?"

"Didn't you say it wasn't a secret?" Zhao Xu asked.

"It's not a secret for level 20 mages, but it is for level 1 mages like you."

After hearing this, Zhao Xu went back to read his occult books.

But after knowing that this was linked to the legendary mage, the magic words in the book became much more vivid.

Every time he read a sentence, he felt that the "Legendary Mage Progress Bar" behind him kept showing "Experience +1".

Ten minutes later, the duration of Zhao Xu's "reading magic" officially ended.

The originally amiable magic text suddenly changed into a complicated look, and his eyes couldn't even focus.

Zhao Xu quickly closed the book and was about to pick up the transparent crystal on the table and use "reading magic" on himself again.

He suddenly remembered that Antinoya seemed to have never even cast a spell.

As a legendary mage, Antinoya must be over twenty levels.

Doesn't it mean that her zero-level spell "Reading Magic" can last for 200 minutes, which is 3 or 4 hours

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu quickly came over and said, "Teacher, let's discuss this."

"Tell me." Antinoya was in a good mood while reading the book.

"Teacher, can you release a 'reading magic' for me?"

"Teacher, your level must be able to last for 4 hours. But I can only last 10 minutes, which is too short. If you're flexible, it's just a zero-level spell slot." Zhao Xu asked hopefully.

Antinoya officially turned her head and looked at Zhao Xu.

"You don't have the 'Spell Delay' feat with a planned field bonus. With it, you can last for 20 minutes."

Zhao Xu could only look at the other party with a helpless expression.

"Oh, yes, I didn't mention it to you yesterday. You shouldn't dare to match this expertise casually."

"It's okay. Anyway, I'm going to teach you the remaining specialties. Let's teach them together then."

"But I have to tell you something." Antinoya continued.

"I didn't prepare the 'Reading Magic' spell for my zero-level spell today."

"Teacher, you don't have the ability to read magic?" Zhao Xu was surprised.

"No, I have fixed this spell."
