The Truth of Magic

Chapter 602: Item familiar, hidden consciousness

Views:

As if it was extinguished in an instant, this feeling of discomfort instantly made Zhao Xu feel fearful from the bottom of his heart.

This means that the mysterious power hidden below directly destroyed more than thirty of his small construction balls at the same time.

Each Peeping Eye is equivalent to an adaptive drone with video.

It's not scary if they explode. What's scary is that they explode at the same time!

Zhao Xu, who has played with drones, knows that only "similar interference" methods can capture them all together.

In fact, when a fifth-level mage encounters this situation, he is generally reluctant to consume a fifth-level spell slot.

Just to detect intelligence, and considering that there are pressing adventures ahead, this can completely result in one or two chapters missing from the final trump card.

Therefore, generally mages without six or seven rings would not be as luxurious as Zhao Xu.

So Zhao Xu decided to continue to be extravagant.

After the potential point successfully restored the spell slot, he once again cast the "Peeping Magic Eye" spell.

After more than thirty stars fell into the shadow below again.

one two three…

It wasn't until Zhao Xu silently counted the fifteenth time that he received all the news about the crash of the Peeping Magic Eye "again".

Only when these prying eyes returned to his hands could he see what was happening, so Zhao Xu was still blind at this moment.

Facing this scene, he couldn't help but frown.

"Sharp Ear Technique"!

"Eagle Eye Technique"!

Zhao Xu immediately cast two long-range spells. He could deploy these "magic sensors" to an area up to 500 meters away.

Just the moment the spell was cast, the detector that could have made him feel the same was disconnected - indicating that the spell's effect had ended.

Although the detector cannot have special magic effects, even in a pure dark environment, he can still see abnormalities within 3 meters, unlike there is nothing now.

"Secret Eye"!

Zhao Xu, who was extremely wary of the dark cave below, directly cast another spell similar to the "Peeping Demonic Eye".

However, the "Secret Eye" is equivalent to a "drone" that he observes in real time and needs to operate at the same time. Its existence form is the same as the Sharp Eye Technique, which is an invisible magical sense.

The peeping spell that is more effective than this spell is the five-ring "detection" spell on the creature.

Zhao Xu concentrated all his energy on the "Secret Eye" and followed its sight as he explored the deep and dark cave.

It's like the presence of a DV camera in a death squad in a horror movie scene. The viewing angle is also very low, and it's the same angle of view facing the ground when viewed from the outside.

But in the cave, due to the bottomless nature of the cave, everything in sight was shrouded in darkness.

About ten seconds later, just as Zhao Xu continued to control his "secret eye" senses, he suddenly received a strong interference, and then the vision transmitted by the spell disappeared.

It was like being caught in a blur of snowflakes.

It was not terminated, but it was forcibly interfered with by a mysterious force. It was impossible to tell whether it was intentional or unintentional.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but shook his head. It seemed that he had to be prepared for what was coming next.

He already knew that he did not need to send "summoned creatures" to explore the path, or continue to cast detection and reconnaissance spells.

Zhao Xu patted his cloak directly and said to himself: "Have you recovered?"

But there was no response at all.

"That's all before. I may really have to take risks next. If you don't reply to me, then I will use some means?"

As he spoke, Zhao Xu issued a faint threatening tone, "Do you think I will use the 'Mage Disintegration Technique' scroll to turn your stored carriers into nothingness, or will I throw you into those doomsday craters that can melt even artifacts? "

The cloak that he usually regarded as a treasure still had no response.

The guards not far away looked at Zhao Xu talking to himself as if he was competing with him, and did not dare to come and disturb him.

"It seems that I won't give up until I reach the Yellow River."

Zhao Xu smiled and said, "But I suddenly remembered that I actually still have two eight-ring scrolls of 'Convert to Chaos' and 'Abandon Chaos' in my hand. It would be a good idea to just wash away your item magic pet expertise."

Finally, after hearing these words, the star cloak on Zhao Xu finally began to tremble slightly, and then he conveyed a sentence to him: "Uncle Zhongxia, you see that I am also working hard beside you, so you treat me like a piece of shit." Let it go, can you just accept that I am an unintelligent creature?"

"Have you ever seen a magic pet without intelligence?" Zhao Xu shook his head and complained.

Speaking of which, his bad relationship with the item magic pet can be traced back to when he was at level 3.

At that time, he chose "Wise Heart Spellcaster" and no longer needed a spell book.

But on the other hand, it also caused him to lose the professional abilities of "Copying Scrolls" and "Summoning Demon Pets". Later, he made up for half of it by relying on the dossier scholar's "Copying Scrolls" expertise.

That's why Zhao Xu deliberately chose the "Item Demonic Pet" at level 3, and designated the cloak he was wearing at that time worth hundreds of thousands as the carrier.

The item familiar specialty itself is a growth specialty, similar to the "poverty oath" specialty. After taking the oath, you can gain something at each subsequent level.

At level 3, he invested life energy, skill points, and spell slots into the item familiar, and he did get feedback.

For example, life energy was returned to him by 10% more, skill points were returned to 4 for every 3 cast, and spell slots cast at the second level were returned to the lower two levels with profit.

He can still use what he invested, but once the carrier of the item familiar, the "cloak", is gone, he will lose the investment and feedback.

Speaking of which, Zhao Xu exchanged a specialty for the additional "skill points" that only profession and intelligence can bring, which is not a loss in itself.

But he didn't expect that for the next entire 7th level, this magic pet would pretend to be dead. It had to wait until today when he threatened it before it would say anything about its consciousness.

"When you reach level 7, it stands to reason that you will gain 'intelligence', usually 10 or 12 points in intelligence, charm, and perception. Generally, unless my camp changes drastically or you are affected by a coercion spell, you will be completely loyal to me. These attributes are not used."

"On the other hand, you also gain the ability to 'sense' and can observe everything within a 20-meter radius around you." Zhao Xu said.

"I understand." At this time, the star cloak on Zhao Xu also made a voice in his heart, "With the arrival of sensory abilities, Uncle Zhongxia, you, like those mages who have magic pets, can get them as long as the magic pets are around you. The familiar assists in reconnaissance, so when you see that you have an additional 'alertness' feat that improves level 3 reconnaissance, you realize that your item familiar has awakened its 'sensory' ability."

"That's right." Zhao Xu nodded, "Originally, I thought that because you were suppressed by Lux, or maybe even replaced by her, you didn't awaken those three abilities."

"But when I find out at level 7 that the alertness feat is indeed added as usual, I will know that you are still a normal item familiar."

"At level 7, in addition to awakening the 'intelligence' and 'sensory' abilities, the item familiar can also awaken the 'communication' ability. But recently, Lux has left my body, and even her body, the 'Book of All Laws' They have all officially disappeared, and if you don't take the initiative to communicate with me, the problem will be too big." Zhao Xu said.

"So, is this why, Uncle Zhongxia, you finally came to me after summoning the goddess's miracle at the cost of the 'Book of All Laws'?" Zhao Xu said with emotion from the star cloak on his body.

"What do you think?" Zhao Xu shook his head.

"Are you so afraid of me? You don't even dare to call me. You really think I'm a three-body or something. The magic item has been living in me for so long, so I should say a few flattering words to the owner."

At this time, the consciousness of the Star Cloak behind Zhao Xu seemed to be angry.

"Uncle Zhongxia, ask yourself, is what you are exposed to now something a level 10 mage should bear?"
