209 Chapter 208-the Lost Path

zhao xu waited for a full 18 seconds to pass before he looked at lu duo with an ambiguous expression.

The ” God’s secret ” that Lu duo mentioned just now had deafened him three times. He couldn’t hear anything from the outside world at all.

it was as if the existence in the void was warning him that he could not listen to it anymore.

This made Zhao Xu think of his level 11 ability as an archivist-dark knowledge (terrifying secret).

compared to dark knowledge (tactics), which could improve one’s attack power against monsters, dark knowledge (terrifying secret) was much more domineering. it could directly stun or intimidate the enemy monsters without any exemption.

it could be said to be an excellent hard control.

For example, when he had fought with the pit fiend, the eighth-circle spell ‘command: Intimidate’.

All he needed to do was to release the word ‘intimidate’, as if his words were law, and he could freeze the enemy.

But in reality, the price and limitations of spells were great.

Not to mention that a level 8 spell was almost at the ceiling, the main reason was that this spell was only effective on creatures with less than 150 hp.

at the same time, zhao xu had also forgotten that it was a control-type ‘force mind’ spell, and it was within the range of zhao xu’s mental barrier spell.

So if the other party really wanted to successfully intimidate Zhao Xu, they would have to break through three of his spells-high magic immunity, mental barrier, and martyr’s pity.

this was the awkward part of this spell.

And the scroll scholar’s ‘terrifying secret’ would only be blocked by the overbearing Paladin’s level 4 immunity spell,’martyr’s mercy’, and everything else could pass.

The God’s secret that Zhao Xu was facing now was the same.

the other party even happened to be related to death god nairo, and at the same time, the entrance to the interdimensional space was not far from the underground temple of death god nairo.

But Zhao Xu didn’t have time to worry about any of this.

The problem now was that Lu duo’s spirit body was able to do this to him.

He did not even have the most basic immunity ability.

didn’t that mean that if he told this secret to others in the future, he could also turn their ears deaf?

Then, he could use the secret as a token of authority.

by this time, lu duo had already understood zhao xu’s thoughts. she had a look of disgust on her face as she said, “if i could find a loophole, i would have done so a long time ago. It’s because you’re the person involved that you’re infected by the resentment of death’s enmity. you can try to say something during a battle. in the eyes of others, it’s completely unclear. they can understand it, but they can’t understand it. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Xu calmed down quite a bit.

he must have known too much and was thus implicated.

On one hand, he knew about the existence of the demiplane and the need to go in and participate.

on the other hand-

“That’s not right.” suddenly, lu duo looked like she was in deep thought. the curly hair on her head was moving and she looked at zhao xu suspiciously. “don’t tell me you’ve come into contact with the god of death’s divine weapon before?”

when he heard the word “grim reaper “, zhao xu thought that things had turned around again until the words” divine gear “came out.

only then did he know that he had been frightened for no reason.

At that time, he had entered the land of death and seen those “stone coffins. logically speaking, at that moment, he had touched something.

“What does that mean?” Zhao Xu immediately changed the topic and tried to guide Lu duo’s thoughts.

” it’s that place. before nairo, the god of death, became a god, he was tortured there. after he became a god ... ”

the power of the will created by the powerful hatred of the gods directly turned that place into a ‘half-plane’ that separated itself from Arthur.

after that, lu duo didn’t want to reveal anything more. after that, zhao xu packed up a little and started looking through the magic books. he then fell asleep in the legendary library.

——————-

The next morning, after Zhao Xu woke up again, he went to prepare everything according to his plan.

this time, zhao xu took into account the mysterious and unknown nature of the interdimensional space, so he immediately reviewed all the spells from the three major spell caster systems.

In the end, when Zhao Xu finished preparing his spell, his character stats changed to this:

[ wizard (class 1: level 4) spell slots:

[ level 0:4=4 (class) ]

[ Level 1:5=3 (class) +2 (intelligence) ]

[ Level 2:4=2 (profession) +2 (intelligence) ]

[ archivist (Class 2: Level 3) spell slots:

[ level 0:4=4 (class) ]

[ level 1:4=3 (class) +1 (perceptive sense) ]

[ Level 2:3=2 (profession) +1 (perception) ]

[ priest (class 2: level 1) spell slots:

[ level 0:3=3 (class) ]

[ level 1:2+1=1 (profession) +1 (perception) +1 (domain) ]

Right now, Zhao Xu had 7 level 2 spells and 12 level 1 spells. If he used multi-talented spellcaster, he would have 13 level 2 spells.

now that he had 13 second soul rings, zhao xu was really invincible among his peers.

After Zhao Xu finished checking all of his equipment, he walked out of his room. He went to look for the middleman who had brought him here yesterday. Under the middleman’s arrangement, he got into a carriage and headed to the destination.

zhao xu sat on the carriage again and felt the shaking of the carriage as it rolled over the rocks. he couldn’t help but smile.

Previously, he had taken the risk in the carriage with Youyou and her group. Unfortunately, things had changed in the end.

zhao xu sat in the carriage for the entire morning, and the journey was completely beyond his expectations.

this went on for three whole hours, and zhao xu finally managed to reach his destination before noon.

It was only then that Zhao Xu noticed that they were heading towards a Manor.

a three-or four-story garden-like building stood in front of zhao xu with a slightly strange atmosphere, and behind it was a towering mine.

The person in charge of the manor looked like a normal garden farmer. He hadn’t even put down the scissors in his hand and was just standing in front of Zhao Xu.

After he took the ” recommendation letter ” that Zhao Xu handed over, he put it into his pocket without even looking at it. Then he dragged Zhao Xu to the entrance of the mine at the back of the manor.

“is the pit of the carrion trotters below us?”

Zhao Xu saw that the hole wasn’t that big, and he couldn’t help but get curious.

“no, i don’t. there was a secret teleportation gate under the cave. As long as you can find that crucial place, you will be able to successfully teleport.”

at this moment, the farmer’s temperament of digging for food in the field disappeared. on the contrary, he became like a marriage witness who was going to attend a wedding, and his whole person became cautious and solemn.

“remember, if there’s a problem, just crush this gem, and we’ll go in and save you.” The farmer said as he handed Zhao Xu an ordinary-looking black gemstone.

also, although you don’t have the ability to teleport, I’ll warn you according to the rules. Don’t play any tricks. You’ll pay a huge price for teleporting inside. after he finished speaking, the farmer took a folding stool and went to a corner to sit down, waiting for zhao xu to move.

when zhao xu saw this, he didn’t think too much about it. he cast a spell or two to protect himself, then took out an eternal flame torch and walked in.

It was only after Zhao Xu’s figure disappeared that a wizard who had been invisible all this time finally revealed himself. He lowered his head to look at the farmer and said, ” why did you arrange for him to enter the most difficult entrance? In recent years, not many people have been able to pass through this entrance.”

however, the farmer shook his head. ” it’s the association’s request. ”

“Are you kidding me? you and I both know what level you have to be to pass this entrance.”

“if i let you go down now, can you guarantee that you will be able to successfully obtain that specialty after entering from this entrance?” the mage asked.

“I can’t.” the farmer shook his head. ” so we’re the ones guarding the door, not him. ”

” hmph, i’ll just watch you guys play the zither randomly. i’d better warm up first and get ready to go in and save the person. ”

—————

Zhao Xu had a bunch of teleportation gemstones in his backpack.

Four of them were the seven-ring escape spell, which allowed him to return to a designated place after crushing the gemstone.

the other four were gem jumps, which allowed him to teleport to another gem.

The farmer didn’t say that he couldn’t teleport, but he said that he would have to pay a price.

such a statement was worth discussing.

Moreover, he didn’t expect that he would have to go through another obstacle to get to the interdimensional space.

On the other hand, Zhao Xu had just stepped down the steps of the mine when he realized that his torch had been extinguished. The darkness around him suddenly swallowed him up and stuck closely to his body.

compared to when he had just walked down almost thirty steps, the entrance of the cave at the top was far away, leaving only a small white light, like a small window.

zhao xu also cast the eye of ebony on himself so that he could see clearly into the darkness.

He observed for a while, but still couldn’t find the reason that made his eternal flame torch dim.

However, he didn’t say anything and continued to move forward.

The conditions of the underground pit were extremely harsh. The entire tunnel was dug out by man from the sand, so the walls and the ground were made of unedited sand.

Zhao Xu continued to walk down the tunnel, and from time to time, the ceiling would shake because of the sound of his footsteps, and sand would fall down.

It didn’t hurt him at all, but it kept provoking his already tense nerves.

Finally, Zhao Xu stopped in his tracks.

with a hint of surprise, he looked at the wall in front of him, which was a dead end.

When he walked down the stairs, there was no fork in the road, so he walked straight. The road ahead had disappeared.
