The Truth of Magic



688 Ernest’s trial

To most of the creatures in Arthur, a wizard of the same level was far more terrifying than a monster in a high-level battle.

What was even more terrifying than a mage was a monster that could cast spells.

When the monster’s body made up for the fact that mages were the weakest team, the problem began to become unsolvable.

For races like the dragons, who could naturally bring about Warlock levels when their profession level increased, they could simply multi-profession as warlocks and achieve a linear increase.

A monster’s data panel was fixed, and they could deal with it as long as they knew the information.

However, a monster that could cast spells was unknown, and no one could guess what their true trump card was.

It was a f * cking feeling to be hit by a 5-circle ” devouring vortex ” or even a 9-circle ” big cracking ” when he was fighting monsters with all his buffs.

At this moment, Zhao Xu also realized that he was facing this very awkward situation.

He was facing a ” wizard ” or ” Warlock ” active cellar. The other party was immune to magic and could also throw unpredictable spells at him!

This was simply allowing the officials to set fires and not allowing the people to light up lamps.

Zhao Xu was the only one who could release an anti-magic field and then use Iron Heart strength to lift the pressure on himself. He was the only one who could do something as shameless as this, but now he had to face someone even more insane than this?

Not to mention, it could be seen from the more than ten restrictions that this ” living cellar ” was not an ordinary legendary monster at all.

It was completely beyond his level.

At this moment, Zhao Xu was really glad that he had been careful enough to send Zheng xinyun and Lu Yu away. Otherwise, he would have been struck by lightning if he failed to act cool.

Being more cautious, Zhao Xu touched the ” retreat emblem ” that he had placed earlier.

[ adventurer zhongxia, you are currently in the area of the level 8 spell, dimension lock. The retreat emblem can not activate ‘advanced teleportation’. ]

In the next second, the ” advanced teleportation spell ” that he had on him, which could cross both the physical and the spirit world, immediately lost its effect.

They were actually targeting him wave after wave?

Zhao Xu was secretly surprised. At this moment, he continued to control the power of flight in his body, and he crossed a distance of more than 30 to 40 meters.

Trees move to death, trees move to life.

Arthur’s super-vision spells could be counted on his fingers.

In close combat, the distance between them was two to three meters, but for 99% of spells, they could hide after a distance of one kilometer.

If the distance was a few hundred kilometers apart, 99% of the attacks could be ignored.

But on Zhao Xu’s character stats, the red warning was still very clear.

The level 8 ” dimension lock ” spell could create a shimmering Emerald barrier to prevent cross-dimension travel.

Therefore, any door, teleportation, and even his original illusionary spirit body, as well as the teleportation spell, which could enter the spirit world, would be ineffective.

However, this 8th-circle spell only had an effective radius of six meters. He had covered such a long distance, but he was still covered as hard as the five-finger Mountain.

it meant that the body of this activation cellar was probably shrouded in such an effect.

Randomly changing the radius of the spell’s effect?

When he thought about this, Zhao Xu became even more wary.

it seems that you already understand how powerful I am? ” The Voice in the Void laughed even more proudly. in theory, even if a God enters my body, he will be punished by me.

“do you think that after ernest left, more than half of the gods would die so easily? The gods aren’t stupid enough to fight to the death without a care.”

This active cellar seemed to have returned to his talkative mode, but it also seemed like he couldn’t find an existence to talk to for a thousand years.

Now that Zhao Xu had appeared, he started to explain everything to him.

Sometimes, if you don’t talk to someone, you can’t express how awesome you were.

“You’re saying? the secret of ernest? It’s essentially a trap, using treasures to lure the gods into your body and then destroy them?” Zhao Xu immediately realized what was going on and asked cautiously.

He began to uncover the truth of the past bit by bit!

This was especially so when he had been interacting with Antonya. She had never once talked to him in detail, much less taken him there.

“you’re finally smart for once. If it wasn’t a fortune that could sweep through all of Arthur, how could it have caused the gods of that era to personally leave their God realms?”

after many gods suffered losses in the future, everyone became smarter and knew that this treasure house was a place to kill gods. Naturally, they were no longer interested in it.

after hearing this, zhao xu felt his heart turn cold.

By the time he could still sense the aura of God released by the surrounding walls to prove himself with his true knowledge skill, the other half of his body was already dead.

When the goddess of magic, sisylvana, appeared, he had also felt the aura of a ” true God.

In other words, this living cellar had either really killed a God before, so there was such a residual aura.

Either he was a real God Himself.

Either it was a skill of truth that was powerful enough to deceive him.

No matter which possibility it was, it meant that he could only be beaten up.

In particular, this “activation cellar” had honestly told him all these ancient inside stories, which basically declared that he had no chance of leaving.

Would he still have a chance to be reborn a second time?

Zhao Xu even started to consider this possibility at this moment.

“Hey, hey, are you running? I’m telling you this so that you won’t have too much hope, in case you can’t escape after wasting your time and can’t stand it anymore.”

but I’m not trying to scare you by telling you this. Young man, come on, let’s continue playing this game of chasing and escaping.

don’t worry. As long as you make me happy, I can let you choose a comfortable way to die. For example, I can open a teleportation door and catch a few big sister succubi from the abyss to let you enjoy it. You can die after ending your current Virgin status.

When he heard this, Zhao Xu’s forehead almost split into three lines.

He finally knew where the dozen or so ‘souljudges’ he had encountered at the very beginning had come from!

Even in the abyss, only a bloody battlefield would have more than a dozen of them speaking at the same time in a narrow place.

Wasn’t it a joke to hide a dozen souljudges in an ordinary Ogre dungeon?

In the face of such a vile living cellar, he really didn’t know what kind of torture those gods had suffered before they died.

But Zhao Xu immediately remembered that the other party had mentioned a female half-dragon, mie?

Did he leave?

“Then, I wonder what price you want me to pay?”

People would always meet stronger people, and it was natural to be slapped in the face.

Zhao Xu didn’t have anything he couldn’t let go of. When faced with someone stronger than him, he just had to sit down and clear the way.

After all, no matter how they looked at it, it seemed like they had some sort of relationship. At least they knew Antonya.

back then, zhao xu had called antonya ‘big sister’ and successfully entered the lost legacy of that dynasty.

If he could get out of here alive, he wouldn’t mind finding a temporary mother.

“This one?” The activation cellar didn’t expect Zhao Xu to suddenly change so quickly, and it said happily, ” “This is very simple.”

“When Ernest first created me, he had considered the possibility of you Arthur geniuses, who had yet to become gods, accidentally finding this treasure.”

you’re in your early 20s, and you’re a double elite mage and archivist. You’ve also brought along a spell Guardian and a super-advanced magic caster. Although you’re not a legend, you’re still considered a prodigy. You’re someone who needs to be protected and can’t be pulled out of the grass at will.

“Just let us go?” zhao xu asked in surprise.

“You wish.”

No. animated cellar refused coldly, ” according to his words, if he let you go so easily, you won’t cherish it. Who knows, you might have to come back in the future and try again.

“It’s because geniuses are always so confident.”

“But what?” Before the other party appeared, Zhao Xu took this opportunity to make use of this turn.

The activated cellar master was also a little angry and said indifferently,”But I still left you a way out.”

the original plan was to be slowly teased by me and tortured to death like a cat catching a mouse. This process could take days or years, depending on your fate.

“However, you can choose the trial that Ernest left behind. Once you pass it, you can escape and even choose a treasure from the treasure vault.”

” however, once this trial begins, it becomes extremely violent and intense. it can’t be stopped on its own, and there’s a possibility of death at any time. ”

At this time, the activation cellar continued to speak in a tempting tone, “so you can play a game of cat and mouse with me first. When you are about to be played to death by me, then switch to normal mode. This way, you will not lose anything.

Zhao Xu asked calmly, “how did that miss Ling from before choose?”

“Oh? she didn’t choose, so i just sent her out.”

“What?”

“I like this Holy maiden who walks the earth. I like her and don’t make things difficult for her, can’t I?” The Treasury sneered.

Yes, of course you can.

Zhao Xu could only grin a little at this treasure house that didn’t follow any principles.

Chaos, utter chaos.

“I choose the trial.”

“Now?”

“yes,”

He had nothing better to do than to play cat and mouse with this living cellar, which had a bad taste!

And the difference between the two was like a dragon catching a chicken.

Hmph, then I’ll take back my evaluation of you. Boring, you’re really boring.

As the animated cellar was speaking, Zhao Xu felt the buildings around him start to change. The originally broken and irregular walls seemed to have been polished and polished in an instant.

Slowly, the surroundings began to turn into a square-shaped secret room. The floor became extremely smooth and was paved with processed white stone slabs.

The room was empty, and in front of the door were two stone statues. They were carved with patterns of armor and held a long halberd in their hands, like terracotta soldiers.

in view of your boring performance, I’ve decided to increase the difficulty of your challenge. I’ll let you know that villains die because they talk too much.

Zhao Xu couldn’t be bothered to argue with him about who the real villain was, so he just asked coldly, ” then what are the criteria to pass the trial? ”

it’s very common. Kill the monsters in every room, and the door will be created until you come to the secret room where my main body is. Then, you’ll pass the trial.

No wonder.

However, even the ” door ” that he passed through had to be created at the last minute after he killed the monster. It was clear that there was no way for him to take advantage of the loophole.

Naturally, he could give up on the fifth-circle ‘wall-passing technique’ or the seventh-circle ‘gate of ministers’.

as he thought about this, zhao xu also started to observe the two stone statues in front of him.

Clay golem?

zhao xu had run into this type of golem before in the palace of azur, where the divine weapon was hidden, but he had taken care of it easily back then.

As for the two stone statues, they were only medium-sized and not super large.

At this moment, Zhao Xu silently activated his secret sight, but he couldn’t see any traces of the stone statue.

The other party was like a black hole of magic that eliminated all forms of detection. In fact, Zhao Xu even suspected that the other party had cast a mental barrier spell on him.

they were completely against each other.

As Zhao Xu complained, he secretly cast a one-ring spell, flaming hand, which dealt a fixed amount of fire damage of 1 to 6.

It was a perfect test.

when the same spell was reflected, the damage would not be a problem for him at all.

however, when the magic flames landed on the stone statue, they did not leave any traces behind. they did not even turn it black.

In the next second, Zhao Xu cast another magic bullet.

Zhao Xu had already reached the upper limit of this Level 1 spell, which meant that at level 9, he would be able to fire nine magic bullets at the same time.

two of them landed on the two stone statues, while the other three flew toward the surrounding stone walls.

In an instant, the magic bullets that had gathered power fell on the two stone statues and disappeared without a trace, instead of causing cracks.

It was magic immunity.

Zhao Xu nodded his head slightly and seemed to have understood something.

But who was Zhao Xu? he just walked up and drew his longsword. In order to minimize the damage, he ignored all the additional damage and stabbed with the least amount of force.

As expected, Zhao Xu, who had ghost strike, easily cut through the stone statue’s defenses, and the blade of the sword sank more than three fingers into the stone statue.

When mages encountered golems, they couldn’t use spells to bully them, so they could only change their way of thinking.

He transformed into a melee monster and went up to fight.

Or perhaps, someone like him, who scored full marks in close combat.

But in the next second, Zhao Xu’s face froze.

this was because for the first time, he realized that he had taken half of the damage!

It was as if he was the one who had stabbed himself with the sword!

Zhao Xu gently used minor healing to smooth out the bleeding wound on his abdomen and smiled.

He more or less understood it.

All the damage he had done to the stone statue had been transferred to himself. At the same time, his starry cloak had also automatically activated the effect of reducing magic damage by half, so he had only taken half of the damage.

However, since it was his own damage, he could not activate reflex to offset it.

He was actually the one who injured the stone statue, and he was the one who was injured.

Interesting, this is really interesting.

Zhao Xu laughed.
