The Truth of Magic

Chapter 214

214 bound spirit by fear (1/3)

The fearsome bind Spirit’s body was like a layer of muslin stacked together, floating in the air like a ghost.

but it was completely made up of darkness. its eyes glowed red as it stared at zhao xu. it already saw him as its prey.

Zhao Xu immediately activated his dark knowledge (battle tactics) ability and tried to find the weakness of the creature in front of him.

The only impression he had of this ” fear binding spirit ” was its name and its combat level that was above 10. zhao xu had only heard of its weakened version in his previous life, which was the challenge level 5 spirit bind.

Judging from its floating body, this ‘fear binding spirit’ was similar to the ghosts, both of them were virtual undead creatures.

in the past, the ghost had caused their team to be unable to fight back. half of the reason was that the ghost template itself was powerful, and it had several supernatural abilities.

from the wide-range sound wave attack of the ghost’s ” horrifying wail “, to the enemy’s ” corrupting gaze “, and even the ” corrupting touch “, which was effective through physical contact.

These special attacks that could erode attributes became the specter’s spear.

The ‘illusory body’ characteristic was the ‘shield’ of the ghost, and also the shield of the ‘fear lightning binding spirit’.

Only magic weapons were effective against apparitions, and just like magic attacks, they only had a 50% chance of being effective.

Just as Zhao Xu was still searching through the knowledge skills and analyzing them, fear of binding spirit had already jumped into the air and was pouncing towards him.

zhao xu’s entire focus was on the fight. his many years of experience as a warrior allowed him to judge that this opponent’s attack was at least at level-15 or above!

even if he had stacked mage armor and shield, he might not be able to block it.

Just as Zhao Xu was thinking about this, an illusionary tentacle that was filled with the will of death had reached out from under the White mist spirit body of fear and bound spirit and touched him.

at this moment, his cloak also burst out with a burst of starlight at the position of contact, shining brightly.

[ adventurer zhongxia has been attacked by fearful binding Spirit’s touch of the void. Starry cloak has activated, immune to this attack. ]

Zhao Xu’s heart started to beat a little faster when he saw this, but he still looked calm.

Originally, he would have placed his life first, but now that he had encountered such a situation, he could only make his own judgments.

he should not be greedy for the bigger picture.

Zhao Xu judged that the fear bind spirit in front of him didn’t have any magic weapons!

As long as the opponent’s natural weapon did not have the characteristics of a magic weapon, it would not be able to penetrate the defense layer of his starry cloak.

at this time, the feedback from his dark knowledge (tactics) and religious knowledge also made him instantly clear the characteristics of the ” fear of the bound spirit ” in front of him.

the special effect of the attack that zhao xu had just been immune to was called ” touch of weakness. ” if it succeeded, it would absorb 1 to 8 of his constitution.

The key was that the difficulty of exemption for this supernatural ability was as high as level 25.

Zhao Xu only had the immunity of a Tier 3 or Tier 4 fortitude right now, so he would definitely be hit by this attack. With his 14-point Constitution, he would fall to the ground and die in two or three rounds.

Then, just as the feedback from the knowledge skill said, the creatures killed by fear trembled binding spirit would be transformed into a derivative, which was an ordinary binding spirit. After death, they would be enslaved by the opponent.

Therefore, the most ancient and terrifying “binding spirit” would only appear in forgotten temples and abandoned tombs.

but even though the mummies were already charging at him from behind, zhao xu still didn’t attack.

this negative energy field would cause 10 points of negative energy damage every round. once he made a move, the effect of the barrier of immortality would end, and zhao xu’s health points would be in critical condition.

on the contrary, it was safer for him to rely on the protection of the starry cloak.

most of the undead creatures ‘attacks had the effect of damaging his physique, but their supernatural abilities had to hit him first before they could take effect!

so before these undead creatures took out any spells or magic weapons, zhao xu would be immune to all damage.

this was also the reason why zhao xu didn’t care about all the other godly items and had chosen this cloak of stars.

When the mummies got close to Zhao Xu, they saw that they didn’t react at all when they saw the fear of thunder bind attack on Zhao Xu, so they started hesitating.

In other words, the fear of higher-ranked undead creatures made them learn to wait patiently.

and when the trembles binding that had come over to attack zhao xu saw that its attack had failed, it let out an angry roar.

but it was a pity.

the man’s roar didn’t have any supernatural effects, and to zhao xu, it just sounded like the sound effects of a horror movie.

On the other hand, the spirits that were only around Level 5 or 6 had supernatural abilities, and Zhao Xu had to avoid them if he ran into them.

These creatures that only had one way of attacking, from the ” super-small mutated Spider ” that wasn’t even Level 1 to the ” fear lightning binding spirit ” that was level 11, were all helpless against Zhao Xu.

This was also the use of a team. Everyone’s methods were about the same, but when put together, they became more comprehensive, and they could overcome all kinds of difficult situations.

Whenever Zhao Xu encountered a creature with strong magic resistance, it would be quite difficult for him to deal with it before he managed to increase his close-combat abilities.

It was just like how the undead creatures that only had normal attacks felt troublesome to him.

at this time, a few trenchant bind spirits in the distance also noticed the current situation and also floated over.

but when zhao xu saw the figure of one of them, he almost wanted to run away. he even activated his teleportation boots to put some distance between them.

A netherworld weapon!

In front of him floated a thicker ” fear binding spirit “. Its hands did not retract into its body, but held a faintly visible giant scythe!

That night, after Zhao Xu used the ” magic weapon ” spell to buff the giant sword in Fengye’s hand, the other party could actually hurt incorporeal bodies because magic weapons were effective against incorporeal creatures.

however, this effect only increased from 0% to 50%, and it still had a 50% chance of missing.

this was because the void body was somewhere between the spirit world and the main material plane.

No one knew whether the other party would be in the Prime Material Plane or the spirit world at the moment they swung their weapons.

this was the legendary virtual body of schrodinger.

However, with the appearance of the netherworld, this weapon’s characteristic, everything was not a problem.

unless the entire world was filled with ghosts and spirits, zhao xu hadn’t seen many powerful warriors in his previous life who had a weapon with a special ability like the netherworld. it was a rather unpopular weapon.

originally, an apparition could not hold a magic weapon. however, when magic weapons had the ” netherworld ” attribute, virtual creatures could use them.

This also meant that the trembles binding in front of him was holding a magic weapon that could cause damage to Zhao Xu.

If Zhao Xu successfully dodged the attack, he would be able to avoid half of the damage from the magic weapon.

However, the problem was that after a successful attack, supernatural abilities like ” fear of thunder binding ” could damage one’s Constitution attributes, which was the most troublesome.

at this moment, zhao xu’s entire body entered a state of heart as still as water.

he knew that this battle had already surpassed the normal difficulty.

Even if it was a mage with the same conditions as him, without his powerful equipment, they would have died here.

The Sorcerer Association was not like those cliché stories where they could not stand the appearance of geniuses and would not wipe out a low-level organization for every genius they saw.

it welcomed geniuses, and even looked forward to the appearance of geniuses.

therefore, the difficulty was a little strange.

Or rather, when the farmer who was responsible for repairing the flowers and plants in the manor guided him here, it meant that-

He was special, so the difficulty of the test was higher.

This difficulty also led Zhao Xu to another clue-Wang Ningwei and the others didn’t go in from here.

that interdimensional space had more than one entrance.

naturally, the place where they appeared in the “scavenger demiplane” might be different.

After Zhao Xu realized that he was calm, he started to make countless connections with this challenge.

the giant scythe-wielding trenchant bind was getting closer and closer to him.

when zhao xu had just taken the knowledge check, the result of the check had been the perfect level 20 when he connected to the source of the knowledge.

therefore, he obtained a lot of knowledge about the ‘fear lightning binding spirit’ in one go.

One of them pointed out the weakness of ” fear of thunder bind “-” sunlight paralysis. the opponent would lose their ability under the sun and escape.

Unfortunately, it was ” sunlight ” and not ” fire. otherwise, Zhao Xu would have just taken out a torch from his backpack.

Daylight, which could create a sunlight effect, was a level 3 spell.

zhao xu’s current situation was exactly what it meant to be stuck by one level.

who would have thought that a mere daybreak spell would be enough to counter fear bind, a level 11 player with a health dice that was close to 16hd?

this was the power of knowledge.

slowly, the trembles bound spirit got closer and closer until it was only six or seven meters away from zhao xu.

Zhao Xu smiled calmly and just looked at him like he didn’t care about his own life at all.

it wasn’t until that fear of the soul bind got close to zhao xu and was within range of the giant scythe that it started swinging the scythe in its hand.

The believers of death all regarded the scythe with the magic characteristic of beheading as a holy weapon. This was because once they successfully dealt a heavy blow, in addition to the scythe, which was the highest critical hit of all weapons, it also had a ” decapitation ” effect-harvesting death.

However, it was all too late.

zhao xu’s entire body suddenly burst with a powerful light. it was as if arthur’s sun had descended upon this plaza.

The Holy spell, radiant armor!
