The Truth of Magic

Chapter 62: Real Ioun Stone

Views:

Zhao Xu, who got the Ion Stone, didn't even equip it, but put it directly into the middle pocket of his convenience bag.

In the early stages of the game, when I was walking around with the Ioun Stone on my head, it was really windy when I walked.

But Zhao Xu wished that others would look at him like a rookie.

He didn't want to attract anyone's attention. Silent development was the main focus.

In the early stage, as long as he is not illuminated by detect magic, players will not know that he has magic items.

Seeing that Antinoya clearly wanted him to be self-reliant, Zhao Xu didn't think too much.

He directly cast "Reading Magic" on himself and continued to study the occult classics, with a thick pile beside him.

Everyone can initially obtain 4 times the points because the upper limit of skill level is character level + 3.

Zhao Xu is now a level 1 character and can upgrade his skills to level 4.

Fortunately, Antinoya didn't force too much, otherwise with the level 4 workload, he really wouldn't be able to go out and take risks within a month or two.

Players in previous lives were also forced to not upgrade their knowledge and skills because reading was time-consuming.

While Zhao Xu was looking at the occult books, he couldn't help but speculate about the legendary mage.

If the legendary mage requires the knowledge (occult) skill, then he probably needs to fully upgrade this skill.

That is, at level 21, he must have a knowledge (occult) skill level of level 24.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but show sympathy for Antinoya.

Their players only have to take the college entrance examination for three years on Earth, but the wizards in Arthur have to take it for a lifetime.

"My today is your tomorrow, you don't have to look at me like that." Antinoya said while flipping through the book in his hand.

Zhao Xu was suddenly shocked. He looked at Antinoya the whole time but didn't see her raising her head.

Doesn’t it mean that players’ true inner thoughts will not be detected within a year

Zhao Xu quickly raised his head and looked around the classroom to see if there were any floating objects around him.

He had heard that mages had a method similar to drone reconnaissance, but he really didn't know the details of the spell.

Could it be that Antinoya is setting up the surroundings

"Don't embarrass the mage. Take a good look at the 'Summary of Common Spells' in your backpack."

"There is a second-level arcane spell called 'Crab Turtle Vision', which allows people to gain full field of vision." Antinoya said angrily.

I see.

Only then did Zhao Xu understand that Antinoya had gained a blind-angle vision similar to that of Byakugan.

So she can know what she is doing without raising her head.

Zhao Xu secretly thought that with this kind of magic equipment, he would not be afraid of someone coming from behind to scare him, but it would definitely not be easy to adapt to at first.

However, Antinoya was cautious enough as she just came over to read books with this kind of buff.

"Teacher, it's enough to upgrade the ten knowledge skills to one level, right? There's no rush for the remaining levels, right?"

After casting reading magic four times in a row, Zhao Xu finally felt that the skill of mysterious knowledge was finally starting to move.

He is equivalent to an athlete who has run a few steps. With the speed and the length of the track, it is easy to estimate the time.

"There is no rush, but advancement requires knowledge and skills." Antinoya said calmly, turning the pages in her hands without stopping.

"Is this the one I want to advance to?"

"What do you think?"

"What level is the instructor?" Zhao Xu suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Knowledge (mystery) must be a level 8 skill, otherwise you can advance before you are a level 5 mage."

Zhao Xu couldn't help but take a breath.

He was completely sure that Antinoya did it on purpose.

The skill level can only be 3 levels higher than the character level, which means that when he is a level 5 mage, the knowledge (mystery) skill must be upgraded to level 8.

Now the 4 times the skill points provided at level 1 are 40 points. He can't advance to level 2 without using them up.

He has far fewer skill points at level 5, so don't expect to be able to max out the Knowledge (Mystery) skill at once.

This will allow him to advance to the advanced profession a few levels later.

Therefore, he must upgrade the knowledge (mystery) skill to level 4 when he is a level 1 character.

It’s just that every time a skill is improved by one level, the reading requirements will increase accordingly.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but have a headache, mainly because he didn't have so much "reading magic" to use.

He has a heart for learning, but he has limited time to use the dictionary every day.

Not to mention that he is already a dual practitioner of Sinnoh and has twice as many spell slots as others.

"Teacher, look at my current situation. If I want to study well, I can't do anything without the blessing of 'reading magic'." Zhao Xu asked Antinoya for advice.

"Why don't you give me a 'reading magic'?" Zhao Xu asked with anticipation.

"Your suggestion is good." Antinoya agreed.

Zhao Xu was immediately overjoyed when he heard this, but out of caution, he asked one more question, "Teacher, does the constant spell need a change of environment? Are there too many people here?"

"Environment? Let's talk about it then. How can we know now?"

"When?"

"How can you master the fifth-level spell 'Magic Constancy' if you are not level 9?" Antinoya continued to turn the pages of the book in his hand.

Zhao Xu was stunned for a moment and thought about what he had just said.

He immediately realized that Antinoya wanted him to let him go.

Zhao Xu was speechless on the spot.

If he could use the "Magic Constancy" on his own, would he still ask Antinoya for help

At this moment, Antinoya was reading with peace of mind and seemed invulnerable to fire and water, so she probably wouldn't let him cheat like this.

Otherwise, Zhao Xu will just beat snakes and follow the stick tomorrow, and continue to beg for other constant spells.

"But, if you really have this ambition, I can satisfy you." Suddenly, Antinoya said directly.

"Joining a big organization always gives you the treatment of a big organization. After all, you players don't need to eat or drink. That Ioin Stone is indeed a bit useless to you."

Zhao Xu looked stern and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Teacher, how about a reward that can help me solve the problem of insufficient reading magic?"

"This is also possible. There are conditions for not being enough. The reward in exchange can only be lent to you. If you fail to meet the conditions, I will take it back."

Use the ownership of an Aoun Stone of 4000 GP in exchange for the unlimited lease rights of another unknown reward, and there are still requirements.

But the problem wasn't big, since he didn't dare to sell the original Aoun Stone anyway.

The only requirement is to meet the other party's prerequisites.

"What are the conditions?" Zhao Xu asked.

"I require you to have all four skills: knowledge (mystery), knowledge (religion), spell recognition, and concentration."

"Can."

Zhao Xu answered decisively.

No matter how difficult the request is, just agree to it first and then report back if you have any questions.

An orange rib-shaped stone flew directly towards Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu took it with his bare hands and looked at the iron stone in his hand carefully. He had never heard of this version of the iron stone. Could it solve his problem of not having enough time to read magic

While Zhao Xu was thinking, he took out the original transparent ioun stone from his convenience bag and gave it back to Antinoya.

"Take it with you. Just hold it for a while and then release it."

Zhao Xu nodded and followed Antinoya's instructions.

I saw the orange rib-shaped ball that was originally lying in Zhao Xu's hand suddenly flew into the air.

As if being restrained by gravity, it flew towards the top of his head.

Just when the Iron Stone was about to streak away from his head like a meteor, the mysterious force continued to pull it back.

After going back and forth like this for several consecutive times, the iron stone finally stabilized its trajectory and continued to circle above his head.

"The function of this iron stone is to increase the caster level by 1."

"From now on, the time you have to 'read magic' is 20 minutes, and the time you have to do super magic is 40 minutes, which is enough."
