The Truth of Magic

Chapter 132

132 combat strength test

Knowing that an archivist could also cast legendary spells once they reached the legendary stage didn’t make Zhao Xu stronger right now.

However, it also made him understand that only a legendary archivist could teach others this powerful profession.

it was as if every priest had a god standing above them.

every archivist, even the ones without any background, must have had contact with the legendary archivist once and seen the “ancient slate” summoned by the legendary spell.

After Zhao Xu was promoted to an official archivist, he woke up at the obelisk the next day to find that he already had the spell slots for an archivist.

Archivist did not have domain spells like priests, but they had a lot of spell slots.

For example, after Zhao Xu became a level 1 scroll scholar, he had three level 0 spell slots and three level 1 spell slots from the archivist.

In addition to the spell slots for Wizards and priests, he had 10 level 0 spell slots and 9 Level 1 spell slots.

combined with the fact that there were many spell casters who could combine level 0 spells into level 1 spells, zhao xu could very arrogantly throw out 14 level 1 spell slots.

compared to the level 1 wizards now, the endurance was five to seven times longer.

Zhao Xu didn’t go out of his way to level up his [ knowledge (mystery) ] skill over the past two days, so he didn’t need to use the read magic spell. The wizard and cleric spell slots were basically useless.

so, he only spent an hour in the morning preparing the archivist spell.

In the future, Zhao Xu’s job class would mainly focus on increasing his wizard level and his job class would focus on increasing his scroll level, so he would only be able to level up once as a cleric in his entire life.

When Zhao Xu got to a higher level and the level 1 spell slots of the priests became meaningless, he would probably start to give up on preparing priest spells. He would only prepare the spell slots for Wizards and dossiers.

after all, he had basically obtained all the powerful skill points, territory, dispel, and spontaneous casting abilities of a cleric.

Wizard Leo was already a high-level wizard, but he still had to beg for a level 1 cleric. From the looks of it, the advancement that Antonya had prepared for him in the future would definitely not be simple.

After Zhao Xu received the spell, he had originally planned to test his combat power in Antonya’s research facility at the obelisk in the morning.

when he had become an official wizard and priest, antonya had thrown him out to train so that he could cast spells and test his spellcasting abilities.

And now, he couldn’t leave Mystra until he reached Level 5. At the same time, he was no longer the kind of noob who needed Antonya to keep an eye on his summoned skeletons for him to practice on.

Naturally, Zhao Xu would be able to go to the floating city or even the combat power testing room at the obelisk to test the power of his spells, just like the other new Wizards.

but antonya still hadn’t appeared in the morning, so zhao xu didn’t dare to enter the testing room that had a legendary golem guarding the door.

Zhao Xu’s heart was itching for a fight. After he flipped through the map of the floating city, he noticed that the battle testing hall where the Wizards were being received wasn’t too far away from the obelisk.

This time, Zhao Xu was a lot more careful. He carefully looked through the manual and saw that it said that one did indeed need a Test Voucher to enter the combat testing hall.

every test would consume various consumables and even energy, so the floating city would distribute test coupons to every mage stationed there every month, which was a small benefit.

in a place like the combat testing hall, even academic mages who did pure theoretical research could use it.

In particular, the mages ‘laboratories were all arranged according to their research topics. Sometimes, just to verify a small theory, borrowing from another mage’s laboratory would be better than spending a Test Voucher to personally test in a combat strength testing hall.

it was just that antonya had considered the fact that her place was well-equipped and that if she really needed anything, she would just buy it. she had never considered going to the combat power testing facility in the floating city.

So, of course, they wouldn’t have specially given Zhao Xu a test pass.

when he thought about this, zhao xu couldn’t help but start to think.

even though he didn’t know why the level 9 wizard, nochi, had given in to him during the last lecture, zhao xu still obediently put away his mithril chip after the lecture.

In his opinion, it was quite stupid to wear a badge that said ” I’m awesome, get out of the way ” for no reason.

Zhao Xu didn’t want to use his special privileges in the floating city at all.

in the end, after he mentioned it to antonya, all the tickets for the seminar would be delivered to antonya’s office every day.

suddenly, zhao xu remembered that the release box in the guest room had to be filled with unused tickets every day so that they could self-destruct.

Didn’t that also mean that Antonya’s combat test vouchers for legendary wizard Antonya would also be delivered regularly and then thrown in?

He remembered that Antonya had asked him to throw away a bunch of things yesterday, so Zhao Xu quickly walked over to the dissembling box in the corner of the room. After he opened the lid, the magic locking mechanism also activated automatically, and the entire magic box lost its power.

This box could usually release a dissociation spell and dissociate all the data in the box.

it was like an extremely expensive but more powerful shredder.

zhao xu looked at the piles of waste paper in the box and quickly started to search through them.

“an invitation to the panke family’s banquet? It’s quite familiar.”

Zhao Xu glanced at it and then threw the invitation to the top wizard family to the side.

“the association’s internal journal issue 1323, secret: A ninth-circle sorcerer.”

What the hell? Zhao Xu didn’t even bother to look at it and just threw it to the corner.

In the end, Zhao Xu flipped through seven or eight documents before he finally found his target.

it wasn’t that he had sharp eyes, but that it was a thick stack of “combat strength test coupons “.

there was nothing special on it except for the fact that legendary combat power could be used in the test hall.

zhao xu didn’t think too much about it. he just tore off the outermost piece of paper and put it to good use.

——————————————–

the combat strength testing hall was one of the largest buildings in the floating city, and its height was only slightly lower than the spire.

According to the manual, the combat strength testing hall had a total of 13 floors, and each floor had been modified.

The 1st to 9th floors were for 1st to 9th circle Wizards, and the 10th to 13th floors were for legendary Wizards.

Compared to the lecture room, there were more mages in the combat strength testing hall, and the majority of them were novice mages.

for these novice mages, they didn’t have any research topics to do. coming here to use spells to create an effect would only be worthy of their years of hard work.

however, novice wizards had very limited spell slots, so they could only return home after a few shots.

Zhao Xu was in a daze as he looked at the crowd in front of him and the inspectors at the door.

He almost thought that he was at a scenic spot on earth. It seemed that there were mages who took advantage of the situation, which was why the floating city had deliberately added such a method.

Zhao Xu waited until he reached the front of the line before he handed his test ticket to a waiter in front of him.

But the man’s expression changed immediately after he took it. Then he looked at the robe that Zhao Xu was wearing.

He was indeed a first circle mage.

Sir mage, please wait for a moment. I’ll go and ask the supervisor.

After he finished speaking, the attendant quickly invited Zhao Xu to the waiting area in the corner to take a seat. He then turned around and jogged to the office area in the center of the stadium.

Even though Zhao Xu had taken off his badge when he left home today, he still wore his first circle wizard robe on purpose so that the other party wouldn’t misunderstand.

However, from the looks of it now, it shouldn’t be a big misunderstanding.

After a while, a big-bellied man who looked like an apprentice trotted over with the attendant.

“May I ask which area will you be testing, my Lord?” The supervisor didn’t even bother to introduce himself. He just stood in the corner and asked Xu Zhao in a low voice, ”

zhao xu looked at how respectful the other party was and nodded. he tried his best to show a friendly attitude.

he understood that the other party was concerned about his relationship with a legendary wizard. after all, the ticket was printed with a legendary-level testing area.

That was why he was so polite to her.

But Zhao Xu didn’t think too much about it. He was just a normal first circle wizard.

“Let’s try both of them,” Zhao Xu said directly.

He wasn’t familiar with the first circle mages “area, and when he said he would try, it was like buying something, telling the other party not to follow him.

“In that case, my Lord, please enter through this passage.” The supervisor bowed and said.

Zhao Xu nodded and then walked towards that passage that had no markings on it but was empty.

On the other side of the corner, the entrance to the first floor was still being approved.

only when one person came out from the inside would another person be put in from the outside. this was to ensure that there was enough space for the first-circle sorcerers on the first floor.

After watching Zhao Xu enter the tunnel, the supervisor who was once an apprentice quickly ran back to his waiting room and picked up the new Alchemy product from the floating city, the short-distance communication device, and connected it all the way to the service Hall on the tenth floor.

li Stan, quickly activate all the testing equipment on the 10th to 13th floors. the supervisor panted as he spoke through the microphone.

“are you crazy? even a legendary-mage wouldn’t be in such a formation.” An excited voice came from the phone.

” i’ve checked the serial number of that test voucher. it belongs to that young lady. ” the supervisor knew that it was enough for him to say this.

There was no need for any foreshadowing, no matter who he was referring to. Everyone knew that there was only one lady in the floating city.

as expected, on the other end of the microphone, stan fell silent. he was in disbelief. that’s not right. That lady’s place is much more luxurious than ours. Why would she come here? ”

“it’s not her, but her servants. i’m afraid they’re just here to arrange for the devices to be activated first. you should know that the young miss doesn’t like to wait. who knows, she might be teleported over soon. you should hurry up, haven’t you always wanted to get to know her?” The supervisor said nervously, ” and you have to try them all. Then you’ll open them all, you know? ”

” alright, alright. thanks for the reminder. i almost made a mistake. i’ve been stuck in the floating city for so many years that i’ve become muddled. don’t worry, i’ll definitely arrange it. ”

usually, li stan was in charge of the 10th to 13th floors of the entire test hall. even legendary mages would not easily offend him.

but at this moment, he was extremely excited, as if he had just awakened a second spring.

” activate all the explosion test rooms, summoning and binding rooms, detection and detection rooms, energy plane interfaces, alchemy workshops, and trap test rooms on the tenth floor. follow the highest level mode. at the same time, inform the ninth-circle sorcerer to come over and have him activate the testing equipment on the remaining 11th to 13th floors.”

lstan ordered in a heavy tone.

at this time, the subordinate who was closest to him could not help but frown and say, “sir, the tenth floor is enough, right? The three levels above are also going to be activated? That would cost us a million gold coins in energy and price.”

“as i said, this is the highest order.”
