The Truth of Magic

Chapter 672: Ogre! trap! Life and death line control!

"Ogre?"

Zheng Xinyun obviously didn't know much about this kind of monster, and not only her, but the entire team looked confused.

The bleak autumn wind blew in our faces, causing everyone's faces to feel a little painful, but their eyes for knowledge were still burning.

The fate between Zhao Xu and the ogre can even be traced back to his previous life.

Looking back at this moment, he could still feel the sharp pain on the back of his head from being hit hard by the ogre's giant wooden club.

"The ogre is a large giant from the chaotic evil camp. It can be said to be a big, ugly and greedy creature. On their thick skin, there are tall and well-developed muscles. I have seen one like that before. The head and neck look like lizards. But the body odor is very strong, unkempt and smelly."

"And the ogre creatures are all doing business without capital. They make a living by burning, killing and looting. They usually cooperate with other monsters to bully the weak. They are an evil race that knows how to stick together. Generally, if you see the ogre, you will It means there are ogre wizards, evil giants, trolls, etc. nearby."

Listening to Zhao Xu's description, those who responded quickly had already taken out various simple notebooks and started recording.

Compared to the past on earth, as long as knowledge can bring traffic, its price is close to free.

Arthur's knowledge is more expensive, and even the cost of paper and printing cannot be reduced, and the popularization of knowledge is out of the question.

Now Arthur, a powerful and knowledgeable player has suddenly become a knowledge V.

Even the knowledge they have about "monsters" is equivalent to the wealth code on the earth. Except for a few who share it with good intentions, most of them are kept waiting for "information transactions" with others.

Although what Zhao Xu is talking about at this moment is limited to low-level monsters, looking at this situation, it is clear that the entire habit will be clearly understood further away.

To put it bluntly, just taking these materials and handing them over to the camp can be exchanged for a hefty reward.

At least there are still a series of intelligence exploration missions in the camp, but most adventurers don't dare to take them easily. Most of them rely on their own original memories to deal with them.

For a while, everyone was itching to look forward to it, and they even forgot about the group of monsters that might arrive at any time.

Zhao Xu was also in a trance. He squatted down and continued to preach based on the ogre's footprints.

"Monsters like ogres are lazy and bad-tempered. They are accustomed to only one way to solve problems, and that is to beat them first. They can be said to be more animalistic than the original orcs."

"But they still know how to run away if they can't beat them. Ogres usually gather into small groups and occupy any place convenient for eating. The reason why they are named 'ogres' is because this kind of monster eats everything and catches them casually. Those who come, poach or kill will be swallowed without hesitation.”

Zhao Xu frowned slightly as he spoke, "But it is precisely because of their deliciousness that sometimes ogres are hired by evil humanoid creatures, including humans."

"Besides his height and weight, what other characteristics does the ogre have?"

Zheng Xinyun also seemed to be back to taking notes seriously in high school class, thinking carefully about Zhao Xu's explanation.

"Their skin color generally ranges from dark yellow to dark brown. They are not naked. Most of them have randomly sewn fur. However, because they are not changed and washed, their stench is even worse."

As he spoke, Zhao Xu pointed to the footprints, "If you have a keen sense of smell, you can even tell how long the other party has been away based on the remaining smell."

"As for combat, ogres like to win battles, so when many adventurers encounter ogres, they often fall into a sneak attack or ambush. Fortunately, although ogres know how to use bows and arrows to throw stones, etc. Long-range means can weaken opponents, but they still lack discipline and can easily become a ball of loose sand."

Then Zhao Xu analyzed the details of the ogre bit by bit based on the monster's habits and some common traps.

This team of more than ten people had a slight illusion at this moment, as if there was an ogre traitor standing across from them, analyzing the weaknesses of their own race bit by bit.

It wasn't until Zheng Xinyun remembered that she felt a little dizzy later that she looked with a trace of doubt, "Captain, can we defeat this kind of monster?"

"Difficult." Zhao Xu glanced at the average level of the team.

It can be said that most of them have nothing to do with "Qiyu".

He couldn't even see any magical aura in the entire team, but he was already an outstanding person if he could bring a few alchemy items with him.

"It is often difficult to kill a large, powerful, and explosive creature like an ogre. Once beaten, even a strong dwarf warrior may not be able to withstand it. So if you really start fighting, it is best to use it first. The spell is weakened."

Only then did everyone realize that Zhao Xu basically used magic when facing difficult problems.

These mages, who seem to be inconspicuous in low-level battlefields, seem to be a key part.

After Zhao Xu finished his introduction, everyone thought for a while and decided to avoid the direction of the "ogre"'s footprints and head in another direction of the wilderness forest.

According to the information that the rogue first learned, this road was opened up by an adventure group of forty people only a few days ago, and they returned safely at dawn.

It proves that this road has certain safety.

Zhao Xu only acted as a powerful "knowledge searcher" and said nothing when it came to target and strategic decisions.

To put it mildly, the whole process went smoothly, so there was no need for him to take Yoona out. He also longed for the moment when this team would fight three times a day, consume all their supplies, and be at the end of their rope.

At the same time, I initially agreed to join this team because I was optimistic about the number of people in the team.

A team of more than ten people will not be as easy to stop as a team of more than forty people. At the same time, it is large enough and will not disappear quietly like a team of four people. It is easy to create fluctuations to attract the attention of monsters.

When encountering danger, there will definitely be a few who cannot escape. At this time, he can let Yoona officially face a test of life and death.

Why.

Zhao Xu even felt that his talent as a nanny had improved again.

Thinking of this, since everyone was in a state of listening to his explanation just now, and the monster showed signs of appearing, Zhao Xu quietly waved his hand and started casting spells.

Who makes him a good person

Fourth-ring spell, advanced contemplation!

As Zhao Xu's "Spell Distant Spell" expertise came into play, he cast the spell on more than ten people present without touching it personally.

He is the only mage at the moment, so there is no need to worry about someone using "detection magic" to see any clues.

Just like when he was exploring underground caves before, just the second-level observation technique allowed him to feel the direction, distance and situation of all his companions in his heart.

At this moment, a small map of the MOBA game seemed to appear on his retina, with the heads of more than ten people in the team suspended.

Thanks to his caster level of 33, with one contact creature for every three levels, he was able to cast spells on everyone with one spell.

If it were any other spell caster, only one spell would cover three people. If it really wanted to cover everyone, all the four-level spell slots would be exhausted on the spot.

Zhao Xu saw the mini map with his left eye, and each person's specific status panel with his right eye.

In everyone's status list at this moment, only "Uninjured" is the bright status.

There are more than ten other negative states: injury, paralysis, trance, coma, dying, nausea, panic, dizziness, poisoning, illness, confusion, etc., all showing complete darkness.

At the same time, with the advanced care of the fourth ring, compared to the care of the second ring, Zhao Xu can also cast "touch" spells of the second ring and below at any time through this state of care.

The most typical one is the X-injury treatment spell.

Moreover, this spell can take effect as long as everyone is still on the same plane.

Even Zhao Xu was able to hide and act as a remote healer, restoring everyone's health at any time. He was a first-rate tyrant.

Just as Zhao Xu was thinking like this, his steps suddenly froze slightly, but immediately returned to normal.

Even the observant master couldn't see any of Zhao Xu's psychological fluctuations at this moment.

At this moment, Zhao Xu was wearing these ten-minute level "detection trap" spells that could reach 10 hours after delay.

It told him instantly that something was wrong!

The "Detect Trap" spell can reveal simple pits, traps, traps, as well as mechanical traps made of natural materials, and even some natural dangers, such as quicksand and rock holes.

It is powerless only when facing magic traps and complex traps such as trapdoor traps.

At this moment, Zhao Xu remained silent.

He just moved his two fingers and cast the spell again, hiding all traces. After knowing the true result of the trap ahead, he continued to remain silent.

At this moment, the wanderer walking at the front did not notice that the traces of dead leaves under his feet were thick and unnatural.

Or if they were to concentrate on advancing from the beginning, searching for traps like laying landmines, not only the rogues' energy would be unbearable, but they would not be able to accept such a snail's pace of advancement.

Therefore, in many cases, it is better to use special means to forcefully defeat the mine.

Such as Zhao Xu summoning invisible servants to carry dirtbags.

A wanderer walking alone to clear the way is sometimes a last resort.

In other words, during the adventure, dying in the hands of traps is also one of the rogue's fates.

"Ey."

A slight collapse sound was heard, and the expression of the young wanderer in the team changed instantly. At this time, he hurriedly performed a volley disguise, trying to lift Newton's coffin board and jump out of the scope of the trap.

Disguised trap!

Zhao Xu's mind continued to play out the details as if rewinding the tape.

Such as reflection dodge difficulty level 20, mechanical trap, position-triggered type, depth estimate of three to four meters, search difficulty level 24, and device disarming difficulty level 20.

A series of keywords flashed through his mind.

It was as if everything in the world was just a string of cold data in his mind, devoid of any emotion or color.

And at the moment when everyone screamed in surprise.

The rogue itself is not low in agility, and even his professional ability is focused on dodge, and his saving throw is mainly based on high dodge.

Theoretically, this rogue is also the person present, other than Zhao Xu and the ranger, who is most likely to successfully dodge after triggering the trap.

And he lived up to expectations, forcing the carp to roll and flip to the front with a trace of indecency.

Zhao Xu also smiled slightly at this.

Most people's instinctive reaction is to forcefully retreat, but this is opposite to the force of forward movement, so after the offset, the dodge distance may not be enough, and it may still fall into the trap range.

A well-made trap only triggers the fall when it reaches the very middle. Therefore, if you don't have enough time to disarm the trap and want to forcibly disarm it, you may fall into the trap without paying attention and get a bad fall.

The wanderer rolled forward full of determination at this moment, which was full of courage and hope.

But Zhao Xu just glanced at it.

In order to catch food, the ogre, who has no life-or-death taboos, could not insert a few sharpened bamboo poles into the pit. It is obvious that there is only one reason, that is, it is a serial trap.

When the wanderer successfully landed and felt that his body was no longer sinking, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

There was another scream from the team!

The rogue then raised his head in surprise, but three iron spears had already struck at the moment the trap was triggered, and were stabbing him in the chest.

There is no way to avoid it!

Zhao Xu couldn't help but shook his head.

Flying spear trap!

Long-range attack level above level 12.

But now it seems that these three sticks are basically submerged into the rogue's chest.

There was no chance of him surviving.

"Treat minor injuries!"

Zhao Xu cast this one-link spell in an instant. From a back-to-back perspective that no one could see, a stream of life energy was directly injected into the rogue's chest.

Originally, the three spears arriving at the same time could knock down the rogue in an instant, and even lower the lifeline to less than -10, which would lead to a sudden death.

But because Zhao Xu raised his hand like this, he forced himself to hold on.

Moreover, Zhao Xu did not use the second-level spell "Cure Moderate Injuries". Otherwise, if this continued, the opponent might be full of energy and frighten his teammates.

Zhao Xu's visit this time was not to protect others and to lead alts for risk-free leveling.

He just wanted Zheng Xinyun to experience the feeling of death in this critical line of life and death.

Therefore, his spell just managed to control the wanderer into a coma on the verge of death, but not completely dead.

In an instant, the entire team screamed!

"Yaron!"

"Little dragon!"

All of a sudden, several people who were friends with the wanderer couldn't help but rush forward, trying to save him!

Only Zhao Xu's eyes were still cold at this moment. He looked slightly at the captain of the team, Sledgehammer Cook, but he was also obviously stunned.

This is no longer the "game" it once was!

"Stop! There might be a trap!" Zheng Xinyun shouted on the spot.

Her eyes finally showed fear, and she heard the footsteps of death.
