Most of these mages prepare several fixed spells to launch spells at fixed targets in the underground square.
The freezing rays and magic missiles they released were basically spells that Zhao Xu was familiar with.
This confused him a little, and he could barely recognize it without even using the spell recognition skill.
"Teacher, I feel something is wrong." Zhao Xu couldn't help but raise it after all.
"Um?"
"For example, if I hear a certain spell, it is a spell I know. Then I also know what spell the other party casts. Or even more bluntly, the other party chants the spell loudly in front of me. For example, the identification spell takes an hour. There’s no way I wouldn’t recognize the person who cast the spell.”
He has studied magic. In fact, he has been trained in the ability of "spell recognition" to some extent, but doesn't this mean he can recognize spells even if he doesn't cast a single shot
"Naive." Antinoya mocked, "Don't challenge the practice of countless people for thousands of years with your current less than 16 points of intelligence."
"You call it understanding, not identification. Only after your spell identification reaches level 1 will you realize that identifying spells is an instinctive and passive behavior."
Change active into passive
When Zhao Xu heard these words, he felt something touched in his heart.
"It's easy for one mage to cast spells, but what about seven or eight mages casting spells at the same time? My intelligence can handle it, but can your current intelligence handle it?"
"You are asked to come here to train spell identification because you have basically mastered all the spells they release. You are equivalent to the ability of spell identification. The progress bar of level 1 has reached 90%."
"It depends on when you break through the last 10%. Otherwise, your ability to make 90% progress at level 0 alone will not be as good as others' real level 1 spell recognition ability."
Hearing this, Zhao Xu's heart felt like it was broken.
Suddenly, everyone in the entire venue was abstracted into coordinate systems in his eyes, and those spells were the curves of each coordinate system.
Zhao Xu fell into this state of confusion.
"Huh?" Antinoya felt something was wrong with Zhao Xu.
She directly waved her hand and cast the "Rainbow Sphere" spell to isolate all interference from the outside world.
At this moment, compared to the rainbow light ball filled with seven-color glass that Leian released at that time, Antinoya's spell has no trace at all, as if it is invisible.
No one present noticed that there was a completely invisible rainbow light ball spell covering the two of them in the corner of the square.
Even the managers not far away who were responsible for keeping an eye on the safety of the new mage didn't notice the movement here.
Fortunately, Antinoya and Zhao Xu had chosen the position on the stage from the beginning, otherwise the novice mage would have accidentally touched the barrier of the rainbow ball and would have been killed on the spot by the seven powers of the barrier.
Zhao Xu, who was in the middle of the game, felt that the light spots in his mind that represented the three major areas of the priest were slowly becoming brighter.
The power from the magic field slowly emerged and poured into his whole body. The power from the other two fields also seeped out and poured into him.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Antinoya immediately activated his mysterious knowledge and religious knowledge skills and began to perform an association test.
Her level of knowledge, which is far beyond ordinary people's and is terrifying after being blessed by magic equipment, directly connects to the deepest part of the "source of knowledge".
No matter how difficult the test in front of you is, with the amount of luck points and insight bonus Antinoya had that day, they are like raindrops under the scorching sun, which will disappear as soon as they are exposed.
Finally, Zhao Xu slowly came back to his senses.
All he saw on his information panel was that any spell he heard or saw was automatically converted into identification checks.
[Perform spell identification on a mage cast 10 meters in front. The test result is 7+D20=7+10=17, which exceeds DC16 and identifies the spell slot "Magic Missile".]
[Spell identification was performed on the mage 7 meters in front of the left. The test result was 7+D20=7+2=9, which failed the save difficulty test.]
Zhao Xu had no time to take a closer look at the rest.
Because he noticed that on his character card, in the skill list, the level of Spell Recognition was level 4 - reaching the upper limit of skill level for a level 1 character.
He looked at Antinoya with a blank expression, "Teacher, my spell recognition has reached level 4."
Even after knowing almost all the ins and outs of Antinoya, I was still a little touched when I heard Zhao Xu's confirmed answer.
She nodded, "Then you saw the check on your information panel?"
"Yes, my spell recognition skill bonus is 7, of which 4 points come from level 4 skills and 3 points come from intelligence bonus. Why is this?" Zhao Xu asked in an unbelievable tone.
Why did he directly max out Spellcraft to level 4
Normally, shouldn't it only be level 1 and then gradually improve
Why does his information panel automatically identify other people's spells
"Knowledge and spell identification are among the few abilities that connect to the source." Antinoya said softly, "After you have the spell identification level, your character card system is connected to the magic source of this world."
"You can use your experience to identify other people's spells. This is your understanding. However, your understanding of each spell is different. This is very abstract."
"But after you have the 'Spell Recognition' level here, you can rely on your original power to automatically identify the spells around you. Even if you have never learned or heard of that spell."
After hearing Antinoya's words, Zhao Xu finally understood that the mysterious spell recognition that he had been talking about before was actually such an ability.
It's just that most of them just make do with the system, unlike Antinoya who knows the details.
"Then what criteria are used to determine failure in identification?" Zhao Xu asked.
"Add 15 points to the spell level to determine the difficulty of identification. If the test result exceeds the difficulty, it can be identified."
Zhao Xu then turned his attention to the mages casting spells in the venue.
He has a 7-point Spellcraft bonus, and these wizards cast first-level spells with a DC 16 difficulty.
As long as his identification check 7+D20 can be greater than 16, he will automatically see through the true colors of those first-level spells.
For him, the origin of magic is 55% automatic recognition of first-level spells.
The higher his skill level and intelligence, the more likely he is to automatically recognize these spells.
No wonder professionals have overwhelming advantages over civilians, from attribute points to the character card system to the existence of this connection to the origin.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xu looked at Antinoya and said, "Teacher, what about my knowledge and skills? Is it because of this connection that I can obtain additional background knowledge if I succeed in the test?"
"That's for sure. The test result is the feedback given to you by the 'source of knowledge'. Each test you make is a connection attempt. I just relied on the knowledge test to know what your situation is."
Only then did Zhao Xu realize that he had one more question he hadn't asked Antinoya: why his identification skills were directly upgraded to level 4.
But Antinoya grabbed his collar directly and led him to the field.
The two of them appeared next to the administrator, and there were several novice mages around who were also training in identifying spells.
"You, release the 'magic missile' at him." Antinoya commanded a female novice mage and said.
"To me?" Zhao Xu looked at Antinoya and the female mage she ordered in surprise, without reacting for a moment.
