The Truth of Magic

Chapter 235

235 The third notebook (2/3)

after seeing this scene, everyone couldn’t help but lean forward. they even suspected that the spirit had only disappeared for a moment.

this was because everyone still remembered what cui lu had said at that time.

Even if it was a Challenge Level 1 monster, when it became a ghost, it would automatically increase by 4 levels due to the ghost’s own ability, becoming a Challenge Level 5 monster.

did this mean that zhang qi’s sword had killed a level 5 monster so easily?

However, no matter how unbelievable it was ...

Based on what Mouton and Feng GE said, the spirit should have really disappeared.

There were also people who suspected that it was the highest-level priest, Mr. Wind, who did it.

however, after a secret discussion, they all agreed that the priest probably did not cast any spells at that time.

then, after zhao xu’s classmates got his approval, they all happily pulled out an ” everlasting fire torch ” each.

After the attack of the ghosts, everyone’s mind of rushing the Army was relieved.

Winter city’s players had mostly brought Arthur’s residents with them on this expedition to fallen star Lake.

that was why the players couldn’t just go offline and leave them to fend for themselves in the wilderness.

Therefore, most teams chose to set up camp.

After cui Lu arranged the people who would take turns to be on duty at night, everyone returned to their tents. The bonfire party was not even held.

it wasn’t like the other team of players a hundred meters away, who had been singing the whole night, and the song had been drifting over as if they were on an outing.

Even though Zhao Xu had given them the mission at the very beginning, most of them hadn’t actually done much during the battle. Some of them hadn’t even moved from start to finish, and they had been completely terrified by the ghost.

if zhang qi had not successfully stabbed the ghost to death, most of the people present would not have had the face to accept the inextinguishable torches.

they felt bad for accepting it, so everyone specially set up a separate tent for zhao xu so that he didn’t have to keep watch in the middle of the night.

After Zhao Xu walked into the tent, he lit up the oil lamp that was hanging from the ceiling and let out a sigh of relief.

Of course, it was not Zhang Qizhen who had stabbed the ghost to death.

in reality, zhao xu realized that now that he was a level 20 cleric, it would be even more difficult for him to make a decision.

it was just that he had so many tricks up his sleeve that he had to hesitate about which move to use to destroy the spirit.

Therefore, he was more focused on observing his classmates ‘true reactions during the entire process.

in the face of such a dangerous battle, the players who dared to challenge the ghost despite it displaying its might all had their own abilities.

Even the weakest of them knew to shoot one or two arrows at the spirit.

And so, Zhao Xu had completed his evaluation of his classmates on the eve of the battle at Starfall Lake.

In terms of results, it was indeed in line with everyone’s future achievements.

Therefore, the moment Zhang Qi thrust out the sword ...

Zhao Xu gave up on the idea of continuing to observe and train his classmates. He chose to give Zhang Qi a bit of fame.

When Zhao Xu had finished casting his spells during the day, he didn’t plan on wasting the spell slots he had today, because he knew that he definitely wouldn’t be able to fight today.

In fact, the battle would only start the next day, so he had used most of his spell slots as backup.

The blazing sky God’s servant had given Zhao Xu a level 20 priest ability, not a scroll ability, so the range of his spells was limited to priest divine spells.

But he had a bridge.

it was a miracle spell that was on the same level as a mage’s wish spell.

Miracle, as a ninth-circle divine spell of a priest, could only summon miracles on the surface, such as saving a city from a flood or bringing back dead companions at a high price.

For example, it could easily ” simulate ” priest spells that were below level 8 or any spells below level 7.

Because of this, Zhao Xu, who had five 9th-circle divine spell slots, immediately used miracle to simulate the 6th-circle arcane spell, trigger.

The most important thing about the trigger spell was that it could compress a level 6 spell and allow Zhao Xu to cast the spell with a single thought.

No matter how complicated the magic technique was, it would require a lot of materials, magic tools, and casting time.

this was another stele in a mage’s multi-action skill that was comparable to swift burst.

However, Zhao Xu had used the trigger spell to activate the Level 4 spell, Swift burst.

Of course, Zhao Xu had also used divine spells to simulate the swift burst spell.

so, when he touched the ivory statue hanging on his chest, he felt that it was too late.

he immediately activated swift burst, which he had prepared in advance.

In an instant, he had entered a state of slow time flow that was equivalent to the ‘standard action time’.

at that time, he even saw zhang qi’s sword slowly moving forward.

zhao xu naturally wouldn’t waste the time that his swift burst had given him for a standard action.

without hesitation, he cast a third-circle holy spell, hammer of justice, which had no upper limit in damage.

The pit fiend had been reduced to dust after eating three or four strikes of the hammer of justice from a level 20 caster.

naturally, the specter, which was originally a level 3 warrior, was reduced to nothing after taking a full 90HP of damage.

After all, the force field hitting the ghost was like a father hitting his son.

because of this, even if someone had been observing zhao xu at the time, they wouldn’t have known that he had actually gained some time to cast the spell after he touched the statue on his chest.

It was mainly because Swift burst was an arcane spell, so Zhao Xu couldn’t cast it directly. He could only cast it by compressing it with a trigger spell.

otherwise, zhao xu wouldn’t have had to use his trigger spell. he could have just cast his swiftness burst and the battle would have ended.

Zhao Xu started to think.

he was too passive without the spontaneous casting specialty.

tomorrow, he would be a war priest, carrying a giant scythe and waving it around.

at that time, he would no longer be able to cast time stop and then slowly buff himself like before.

therefore, he had to go to the legendary library tonight to find some ideas.

Now, Zhao Xu’s first reaction when he encountered a problem was that he knew he had to study more.

suddenly, zhao xu’s inspect skill indicated that there were people standing outside his tent.

“come in?” zhao xu said softly.

flay gently rolled up the tent’s curtains and walked in silently. she had already taken off her leather armor, revealing her originally beautiful figure.

“i really couldn’t tell that you were a priest. our rogue’s stealth skill actually doesn’t work?”

zhao xu just laughed. flay’s maximum level of stealth was around level 10, so of course, it wouldn’t work.

When she was close to legendary and had level 30 stealth, she would probably be able to fight him on equal footing.

“You told me to come to you in the middle of the night?” flay asked.

“yes, miss flay,”

zhao xu didn’t think that freya would be so big-hearted as well. she didn’t care about the ghost attack at all and just went straight to the point without beating around the bush.

before the leader asked me to protect the young lady, he also asked me to ask when the young lady will be back.

zhao xu was a little curious about the mysterious tomb that flay had been searching for in the vicinity of fallen star lake in his previous life.

In his previous life, he was afraid of getting involved in the fights of the big shots or the mysterious world, so he didn’t ask about Flay.

in this life, he more or less had the qualifications to take risks. naturally, he was curious about flay’s goal.

“that’s not right. my father knows about that place. why would he be curious about how long i’ll be back?” Flay asked in surprise.

At this moment, Zhao Xu had the lie detection spell cast by the blazing God’s servant permanently cast on him.

That was why he knew whether Flay was lying or not, including the things that she was trying to probe him for.

Moreover, his ability to read people’s expressions and expressions could help him figure out Flay’s intentions.

this was also the reason why zhao xu had dared to come to flay’s place to set up traps even though he didn’t have any information on her.

zhao xu paused for a moment. he realized that no matter whether it was the results of his spells or his observation skills, there was nothing unusual about them, which meant that leader donder did know about this.

he continued to ask, ” “It’s mainly because the tomb is too mysterious. The leader is afraid that miss will continue to delay.”

when flay heard zhao xu mention the tomb, her suspicions disappeared and she lowered her head in deep thought.

but that’s true. Since you’re here to protect me, you’re considered a core candidate. Can you help me take a look? ” at this moment, flay took out a piece of paper from her clothes and handed it to zhao xu.

“next, while you’re in the ‘starfall lake’, help me take note of where this emblem has appeared.”

Zhao Xu also smiled. He had finally achieved his goal.

In fact, it was normal for Flay to do this. After all, she would have to rely on her subordinates to find clues in the future. She was just informing them in advance.

On the surface, Zhao Xu was the goddess’s priest, so he naturally didn’t have to be too respectful. He casually took it and then slowly spread out the old parchment.

however, his gaze had just landed on the paper when it froze.

he had seen this pattern in ancestor andy’s notebook before.

he had also seen it in the notebook of the spectral ancestor.

Then, the two notebooks had combined into one, becoming the spell notebook in his hand.

this was the third time he had seen the picture of the mysterious tomb.

Thunder struck the ground, water swirled and flames burned.
