"Curse fire?"
At this time, Zhao Xu was stimulating the energy of the "silver fire" in the palm of his hand, as if he was the heart of the candle, lingering with the silvery white light.
Faintly, he even seemed to hear someone mention his name.
This familiar feeling was noticed the first time he got the "Death Godhead Fragment".
Whenever someone mentions his "name", he can listen to the next half sentence without any hindrance.
At that time, Zhao Xu did not ignite the divine fire, and he was unable to handle such a situation, so he left it directly to Lux for processing and shielding.
From that moment on, Zhao Xu also slowly parted ways with the "Death Godhead Fragment".
This is also the reason why Zhao Xu knew nothing about what happened to the two of them. He didn't even know much about the plates that Zheng Xinyun left behind after he preached.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, I heard a similar "voice" again.
However, after careful analysis, Zhao Xu immediately realized that this "calling" was limited to the area near the tower, not the entire wild death land or even all areas of Arthur.
It's not as exaggerated as the original Death Fragments.
Antinoya also noticed something strange about Zhao Xu.
"oh?"
"It seems that your ability to master the power of Silver Fire is not bad. You actually mastered the perception ability brought by 'Silver Fire' in one fell swoop?"
Zhao Xu nodded.
"The gods can see, hear, touch and smell everything within a kilometer of their godhood level according to their godhood level."
Zhao Xu's eyes widened instantly, and then he realized the exaggeration.
Not subject to magic at all!
They are mortals and have the farthest field of vision, but it will be blurred hundreds of meters away.
Hearing is down to tens of meters.
As for the tactile sensation, it is only about one meter away and can be reached by both hands!
Doesn't this mean that these gods can launch a line-of-sight attack against him without even having to contact him face-to-face!
Directly output 10,000 points of damage in all directions from tens of thousands of meters away
"At the same time, they can use a standard action to sense any believers, holy sites, related matters, and even everything within a kilometer of the godhead level of that place when his name is mentioned, and this can last for one hour. At the same time, the gods can also One's own perception extends to the number of godhead levels, or blocks the power of perception of lower godhead levels."
I see!
No wonder the gods require believers to chant their names.
That is to say, every time a believer of Sisylvina, the goddess of magic, prays his name once.
The goddess can sense the area of almost 20 kilometers around the believer at a fixed point, as well as everything that happens in the next hour.
Every time you chant the name of God, it is equivalent to a one-hour wide-area radar scan!
As the number of "believers" increases, wouldn't it be possible for powerful divine power to basically perceive everything about Arthur
No wonder the gods themselves have the reputation of being almost omniscient and omnipotent.
And countless mages have also told their subsequent apprentices not to mention the name of God easily, not even the lords of the abyss and hell who have corresponding functions.
If you mention it, you will be targeted directly.
"Your silver fire can also make you feel this kind of similar power. But it is definitely much weaker. At best, you can only know who is calling you nearby and the words that follow. This will not cause too much burden, even If you don’t take the initiative to listen, you may not notice it.”
"And many researchers suspect that the supernatural power granted by the goddess to the chosen people, the silver fire, is part of the goddess."
"Because you are not the chosen one of the goddess, you cannot use the 'Silver Fire' at all, and you cannot even imitate it." Antinoya summarized.
Zhao Xu also felt at this time that most of the people who mentioned his name were mostly compliments and envy, and of course there were a few complaints.
Doesn't this mean that he will be able to feel when others say bad things about him in private nearby
"What about cursed fire?"
The power of silver fire is so powerful.
What level of power should the "cursed fire" that is more pure and is directly the energy of the magic network surpass the goddess herself
Feeling the warm power transmitted to his body made Zhao Xu fall in love with stimulating the silver fire even more.
At this time, the question was finally answered, but Antinoya smiled.
She walked directly to the stone table aside and sat down gently, then faced Zhao Xu.
"Did you know that there is another kind of fire in the mage's advancement?"
"Old Fire?"
Zhao Xu responded immediately.
He first learned about several "advances" at the Namolin Stone Tablet.
Among them, there is one type of mage advancement that is the most widely circulated. Even because of the name of the advancement, the title of the mage has been changed—
Archmage!
This advancement is a public advancement of the Mage Association, and you can apply as long as you meet the prerequisites.
This profession has "advanced arcane abilities" at every level, and there is no disadvantage at every level, but Zhao Xu has never considered it.
On the one hand, the advancement requirements for knowledge (mystery) and spell recognition require level 15, which requires a character of level 12 to meet the requirements.
On the other hand, you need to master three prerequisite expertise, specialization skills (spell identification) and specialization spells of two different schools.
What's even more exaggerated is that one must be able to cast seven-ring arcane spells and master five-ring or higher spells from five different schools.
Under normal circumstances, a mage will advance to the "Master of the School" first, satisfy a spell specialization and get the reward of skill specialization (spell representation), so that he will not suffer any disadvantages.
Otherwise, with the three specialties in front, even Zhao Xu would feel a headache at this moment.
There are only 5 levels of advancement for the Archmage, and each level can choose an "advanced arcane ability".
They are arcane hand, counterspell control, elemental control, shaping control, spell power, spell-like power and arcane fire!
Every time you choose an ability, you need to sacrifice a corresponding spell slot, and they all start at the fifth level.
From now on, it can no longer be used to cast spells, which is also quite harmful to a mage who only has a few spell slots in each level.
For example, "spell power" that requires the sacrifice of a fifth-level spell slot can increase the effective caster level by 1 level, which is the same as Zhao Xu's orange ioun stone.
Sacrificing the "spell-like ability" of a fifth-level spell slot permanently converts an empty spell slot into a fixed "spell-like ability" twice a day.
As for "Arcane Fire", you need to sacrifice the nine-ring arcane slot. From then on, any prepared arcane spell can be converted into arcane fire, which will be a red energy arrow of original spell energy.
It has a range of more than 100 meters and can cause X times of 1-6 damage (XD6, X = Archmage level + number of rings).
At first glance, Zhao Xu's elect ability and any method of improving the caster level are comparable to the advanced arcane abilities of these three great mages.
This is also the premise that countless mages complain about, but the harvest is too little, not to mention having to sacrifice spell slots.
But when it was really possible to advance, mages still flocked to choose it.
Even because there are so many advanced "Arch Mage", many civilians who don't know the inside story think that "Arch Mage" is the title of a powerful mage.
Comparing the two, Zhao Xu's current advancements are even more valuable.
Even the "Spell Guardian", which requires a part-time priest, scorns the "Arch Mage" for advancement.
In an instant, Antinoya's hand directly inspired a red magic energy arrow, which passed by Zhao Xu's arm without any hesitation.
It was so fast that Zhao Xu couldn't even react.
"This is the arcane fire. Did you notice its energy characteristics just now?" Antinoya explained.
But looking at Zhao Xu's surprised look, she thought the other party still didn't understand, so she couldn't help but shake her head, "Why are you so stupid? Then watch carefully."
As she spoke, she continued to condense the "Arcane Fire" in front of Zhao Xu's eyes. That extremely pure magical ability once again emitted its own aftermath.
"tutor?"
Zhao Xu was not surprised at Antinoya's sudden attack.
But the other party actually advanced to "Arch Mage"
How unthinkable is this
"Are you surprised that I advanced to Archmage?" The thoughtful Antinoya immediately realized Zhao Xu's intention.
"Yes, is this the price of three expertise?"
Skill Specialization is specifically designed to increase level 3 skill bonuses, while Spell Recognition is of great significance to mages, so it is not necessarily useless if it is stacked high.
However, spell specialization is the saving throw difficulty of the designated corresponding school + 1 level.
In the later stages, the mage's spell saving difficulty can no longer keep up with the monster's saving bonus if it improves.
It is no longer an easy task to imagine that magic will work. Many things are more about probability.
Otherwise, wouldn't the mage's seven-ring "finger of death" be rampant in the world, killing all creatures that are not immune to the instant death effect
Therefore, the specialty of Spell Focus is really rubbish.
Generally, mages will choose it just because it is the prerequisite for the advancement of "Master of the School". Then they can obtain the skill concentration expertise through the Master of the School professional ability. Later, they can learn the "Spell Specialization" of another school to smoothly advance to the "Arch Mage". ".
"Zhongxia." Antinoya said angrily.
"I am a dual-elite profession. The two lines add up to a total of 70 levels of professional levels, excluding the initial 5-level basic professions in the two lines. Later, I have to arrange a full 60-level advancement. Can you recommend it to me?"
"But in this case, the advanced expertise of the Archmage is too wasteful." Zhao Xu said.
Antinoya shook her finger.
"Although the Archmage itself is not a powerful advancement, it requires the 'Counter Spell Control' of the seventh-level arcane level. It can reflect spells back to the opponent and treat them in their own way. It may be harmful to others. It’s difficult, but for someone like me who has a chain of counter-spell expertise, it’s pretty good.”
"As for the Arcane Hand, you can use contact spells to contact creatures within 10 meters. It is consistent with the distance spell you learned, which is equivalent to saving a feat. Shape Control can change the area or effect spell range from 'Burst' ', 'Cone', 'Cylinder', 'Diffuse', 'Diffusion', or even manually dig out unaffected areas to avoid attacking teammates, which is not bad."
Listening to Antinoya's few words, Zhao Xu also slightly realized that the "Arch Mage" also had its merits.
"As for the expertise you are worried about, it is not a problem for me at all. Zhongxia, I am different from you."
At this time, Antinoya's tone became more and more proud.
"For example, for flaws expertise, you choose two at level 1. But for those of us who were destined to exchange flaws for expertise before the Cataclysm, there is one flaw at level 1, and one flaw every five levels thereafter, so I have 8 flaws at the moment. A flaw expertise.”
"On the other hand, the 'Iron Will' expertise you acquired in the Land of the Punishers and similar methods, I told you that Arthur has several other places."
"You can obtain Skill Specialization (Religion), Nimble Fingers, Luck Specialty, Skill Specialization (Climbing), Skill Specialization (Performance), and Dragon Vein Specialty respectively. I also replaced these 6 specialties with Chaos Double Wash respectively."
At this time, Zhao Xu could only grin, with 8 flaws and 7 expertise gained from the experience of Iron Will, totaling 15.
When an average person reaches level 20, they only have 7 ordinary specialties brought by levels, and the remaining career reward specialties are discussed separately. The legendary specialties obtained after upgrading later are also mentioned.
However, Antinoya has 22 common specialties in total.
They are completely different. No wonder the other party can be so extravagant.
"Teacher, please hurry up and arrange for me to have such an adventure. I still lack expertise." Zhao Xu couldn't help but feel aggrieved.
"Haha, please wait in line slowly first. Most of these reward specialties will take several years to get a quota." Antinoya curled her lips, "I even dug out several of them. If you can master the curse fire, I will We can consider letting you jump in line."
She said seriously, "Based on the 'Arcane Fire' and 'Silver Fire' I showed you, can you detect the difference?"
At this time, Zhao Xu also lowered his head slightly and walked up to carefully observe the energy arrow condensed in Antinoya's hand.
"Arcane Fire essentially selects an arcane spell and restores it to unprocessed spell energy. Rather than casting a spell, it achieves a spell effect in disguise by stimulating various spell energies."
"A level 13 mage/level 5 archmage casts a six-ring dissociation spell of 36-216 (36D6) damage, while a six-ring arcane fire spell does 11-66 (11D6) damage. In comparison, the arcane fire spell does 11-66 (11D6) damage." Fire doesn't do much less damage. But it's better because it doesn't require saving throws or spell resistance."
At this time, Zhao Xu was like an old scholar, holding his chin and thinking.
"Compared to before, Silver Fire is obviously more advanced than Austrian Fire, which means their energy levels are different."
In an instant, thoughts surged in Zhao Xu's mind.
"Arcane fire is the energy that is extracted from the magic network by the mage, injected into itself and transformed."
"The silver fire is the energy that was extracted from the magic net by the goddess and injected into herself."
Zhao Xu's eyes seemed to be filled with a hint of surprise.
This is also the reason why Silver Fire has divine power that allows him to hear others calling his name.
"Good, obviously you understand the difference."
Antinoya also nodded with satisfaction at this time.
"Silver Fire is an ability given by the goddess of magic, Sisylvina, to the chosen ones and some of those who are favored by her."
"Curse Fire is the original ability of the Magic Network. It is a rarer and more precious talent than Silver Fire. Only a few people in each generation master this energy."
"The silver fire is the key to the final scroll."
"As for the cursed fire, it is also a key."
