The Truth of Magic

Chapter 294

294 mage tower

the next day, zhao xu had become completely unrestrained, and he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

from the initial mission of ” guarding the novice mage to kill the mountain bandits “, he had changed it to ” exploring the temple of death ” because he had encountered the man named andy who had accidentally sacrificed his friend to the devil.

In the end, just as he finished exploring the temple, he turned to iron will to obtain the mission and entered the underground cave. In the end, in order to find the portal leading to the carrion pit, he accidentally got involved in the battle of Starfall Lake, and finally came back to transfer to the divinity mission of the land of the sleeping.

Throughout the entire process, the opponents he faced were pit fiends, sorcery Giants, ninth-circle sorcerers, abominations, and so on. They were far beyond what he should have faced at his current level.

even though zhao xu mostly relied on external help and not his own professional abilities, through this kind of training, his own knowledge and experience had also improved dramatically.

after zhao xu and antonya parted ways at the floating city, he went straight back to the surface of mystra.

he had previously used potential points to simulate the ‘spontaneous casting’ and ‘spell endurance’ specialties.

so now that he had a specialty position, he spent more than half a day on the floating city and successfully mastered these two specialties.

His list of specialties now became: spell mastery (flaw 1), bizarre foresight (flaw 2), combat casting (level 1), item familiar (level 3), multi-talented spellcaster (human), spell instant cast (level 5 wizard supreme magic), spell endurance (iron will replacement).

these seven feats made zhao xu feel like he had a lot of feats at his disposal. even the majority of level 1 and 2 players only had one or two feats.

Zhao Xu was wearing the normal robe and the starry cloak that he had changed back to. At the same time, he was also holding the one-meter long staff that cost 170000 gold coins to cast instant high-level Supreme magic spells.

Now that he was holding this scepter that was completely made of metal, it could be used as a wooden stick or a light hammer with a nail head. When combined with the eternal Magic wand and legendary Necromancer staff that were hanging around his waist, Zhao Xu looked like an extremely powerful wizard.

So much so that when he walked on the streets of Mystra, ordinary adventurers did not dare to get too close to him.

Reverence for mages was an instinct that was engraved in the blood of the people of Mystera.

In particular, his Super Magic instantaneous scepter, which could be used three times a day from the first to the Ninth Circle, looked extremely luxurious in itself. On the contrary, the legendary scepter, which was made of string of fingers, looked a little unsightly.

last night, lacus had woken up for a while, and zhao xu had briefly talked to her for a few minutes.

the greatest use of the godhead of death to him was to charge his necromancer’s staff.

zhao xu’s legendary necromancer staff would be the greatest boost to his power level in his adventuring career.

according to lacus, the staff could recover energy a few times a day. basically, if zhao xu didn’t act rashly, he would be able to recover most of the energy in his magic staff within a week.

for him, the shard of divinity was temporarily equivalent to a ” wish spell ” that could only replenish the energy of the staff in a fixed direction. he would only be able to activate the rest of its uses when he leveled up in the future and when lux continued to fuse with the divine fragment.

zhao xu didn’t just walk around the streets of mystra. he went straight to the rose cross, which was a joint organization of the wizard association and the church of the goddess.

rose cross’s base was also located in the goddess ‘sacred heart cathedral.

After Zhao Xu revealed his identity, he quickly came into contact with some of the things that ancestor Andy had left behind.

The first notebook pointed to ancestor Andi, who was also the ASSA family. He was one of the seven-man teams that had once explored the tomb.

most of the relics had been taken out of the tomb, most of which were ancient stone tablets and some strange bronze statues. there were not many of them, and many of them had disappeared in the passage of time.

and what zhao xu saw had all been identified by rose cross before, so there was basically nothing special about it.

Even if Zhao Xu used the golem goggles to look again, it would still be the same.

The Association had also noticed that the ancestor of the ASSA family had explored the mysterious tomb before, so they had also collected information about the people who had explored the mysterious tomb.

It was also because he had the organization’s support that Zhao Xu was able to successfully get his hands on the complicated information that he had to gather and organize.

zhao xu looked at the name list in his hand and fell silent.

the second notebook he obtained also contained the spirit of the former army commander, who was from the andrea family. however, the power of the clan had long been exterminated in a turmoil a hundred years ago, and no descendants were left.

and of the seven people who had gone on the expedition, three had returned to mystra. The third was the Errol family, which had also moved out of Mystra during the turmoil a hundred years ago and settled down in the “northern sky merchant Union” North of the broken Sky mountains.

however, in the end, the demon incident this time was more related to the asaph family’s bloodline, so the files only mentioned a few words about the other two families.

as for the third person, which was the notebook that the errol family was involved in, zhao xu would have to explore it further in the future.

after zhao xu requested to make a copy of the information, he left rose cross’s base.

Then, he flipped through the booklet in his hand. On it was a quest that he had just received from the mage Association’s Garrison, the arcane gate.

Most adventurer teams would sometimes choose to pay a huge price and directly request for help from the local wizard Association if they needed the help of a spellcaster to take an adventure.

the quest in zhao xu’s hands had been issued by the local players ‘guild of mystra, the watchmen, and they needed a level 3 wizard who could master a specific spell.

Zhao Xu wasn’t really interested in these kinds of missions either, but the Guild leader frostsword and his sister snow had a pretty good reputation after everyone transmigrated.

with the idea of getting to know each other better, zhao xu accepted this quest from one of the top guilds among the current players in mistra.

Zhao Xu had to wait until he reached Level 7 before he could return to the floating city anyway, so he just took on random missions during this period of time. On one hand, he could accumulate his own experience, and on the other hand, he could continue to accumulate his own magic items.

after going around four or five streets, he successfully arrived at the courier station. this was also the place where he had informed the other party through the association to prepare to set off after meeting.

The Watchmen Guild was considered a high-level party in Mystra, and there was no lack of Level 2 players at this time.

when they saw zhao xu walking over in his sparkling cloak, they couldn’t help but narrow their eyes a little.

” those are all magic equipment? ” a female ranger player who was wiping her longbow couldn’t help but say this, especially when she saw the scepter in zhao xu’s hand. it was definitely the kind that cost a fortune.

it seems that the Sorcerer’s Association has sent a reliable Level-5 sorcerer over. He’s finally worthy of the remuneration we paid in advance.

As the Guild Master, frostsword nodded his head in satisfaction. For the sake of this mission request to the wizard Association, they had almost emptied their entire Guild’s liquid funds.

When Zhao Xu saw this large team of 30 to 40 people, he knew that this mission was going to be quite a big one. He immediately went up to frostsword, the person who had issued the mission, and gestured to him.

“Wizard Association, third-circle wizard, code name: the wind.” Zhao Xu followed the tradition of the Association and used a code name to introduce himself. As he spoke, he handed over the mission proof document.

the rogue on the side took it and used his ” deciphering document ” skill to identify it. then, he told the guild master beside him that it was indeed correct.

The leader of the watchers Guild, frostsword, also looked at Zhao Xu and gave him a brief introduction of the main management staff.

well, then let me reiterate this to you. According to the contract I signed with the Association, no matter what spell I cast in the next mission, you are not allowed to ask about it, and you are not allowed to search for information about me. Is there a problem? ” Zhao Xu confirmed with his guild leader, frostsword.

At this moment, frostsword glanced over at Zhao Xu’s most luxurious-looking scepter. He smiled and then nodded silently to show that he understood this rule.

The mages of the Association usually hid their identities when they were out on missions. On one hand, it was to prevent too much information about themselves from being leaked and being targeted.

“Then tell me about your mission?” Zhao Xu and the other members of the opposing Guild found a hidden corner at the relay station and started talking.

for the sake of confidentiality, frostsword had only left the general direction of the mission in the mage association.

The actual details of the quest would have to be discussed in person, so Zhao Xu still had one more chance to listen to the quest and reject it.

Frostsword’s tone was heavy as he said in a low voice, ” ” this starts from a person that our union rescued in the wild three days ago. at that time, we found that he had a map on him. ”

” it’s about the ruins of a high-ranked wizard’s wizard tower. ” As he spoke, frostsword’s eyes lit up and he looked at Zhao Xu.
