The Truth of Magic

Chapter 337

337 A million gold coins

in an instant, within the range of this incomparably holy cathedral, the magic staff in zhao xu’s hand started glowing with a light that represented the will of death and termination.

it was different from the succubus ‘blasphemy, which was an area-of-effect sound wave spell.

Finger of Death, which could only be used at close range, had a limited attack range and could only be used on a single target. However, it was not like blasphemy, which had a death effect that required a level difference of ten levels.

From the moment the Finger of Death was developed, every time it appeared, it would come with the will of death.

It drew upon the most original power of death in the world.

Everyone present could feel the fear of death. They even couldn’t help but shudder.

But the succubus didn’t care.

wizard reyan, who was close to the legendary level, was already a level 20 spellcaster, but he still could not break through its spell resistance.

Part of it was because it had improved its spell resistance, and the other part was that it could mobilize the abyssal divine power to resist.

He was just a low-level spell caster, and he had the face to cast a spell on it?

however, the legendary necromancer staff in zhao xu’s hands was only worth a million gold coins.

it was because finger of death itself had already been upgraded to level 16, which greatly increased the difficulty of the spell immunity.

if one’s fortitude wasn’t at least level 14, they would definitely die when they encountered this spell.

when he used this staff to cast spells, his spellcaster level would be considered level 27.

At the same time, he used up his potential points. For all the checks that were stacked from 1 to 20 levels, he could add 1 to 6 potential points.

In an instant, the spell he cast was equivalent to a level 30 spellcaster, which was 50% faster than the level 20 Reyan.

The power of the Finger of Death instantly broke through the succubus’s spell resistance, and her face changed.

Immediately after, the power of death seeped into its body, from its outer skin that was covered in red scales all the way to the bones inside.

In the blink of an eye, the succubus turned into countless bubbles and disappeared, as if it had never existed in this world.

At this time, Matthew flew back and looked at the place where the succubus had disappeared in disbelief.

He touched the bubbles that looked like soap water, but he could not smell the slightest stench.

it wasn’t because he was slow, but because he had been using all his strength to fly over.

However, the clash between Zhao Xu and the succubus had happened in an instant.

Many cleric apprentices had only blinked before the battle ended.

“dead?” the old priest’s throat felt a little dry. he couldn’t believe it, but he still asked humbly.

When the trainee priests saw the humble tone of the old priest who had just taught them, they immediately understood that the man who had just killed the monster was probably the legendary master who was worshipped by the players on the forum!

Priest blanch, on the other hand, did not say a word. He looked at the bubble that had almost dissipated and pondered.

“There’s no death,” Zhao Xu shook his head and said, ” the other party must be an illusion.

“how is that possible?” matthew asked in return. the feedback from his attack just now should have been completely real.

moreover, the other party’s ‘blasphemy’ had really numbed him.

“no residue.” zhao xu gave a simple description.

At this moment, a cloud of dust suddenly blew over. It was Reyan, who had been flying all the way here. At this time, he was also sweating slightly.

After him, another three spell casters in different robes arrived. For a moment, the four of them looked at everything in the hall in surprise, and at the same time, they carefully scanned the hall with their own TrueSight spell.

The succubus relied on the divine power of the abyss to hide from the ” truth-seeing spell ” and could not see through its disguise.

however, it didn’t mean that it couldn’t be seen through if it used ‘invisibility’.

“Is it settled?” reyan was a little surprised.

there was a high-level wizard and a priest behind him. they looked at reyan without saying a word, waiting for his orders.

matthew, on the other hand, recounted everything that had just happened to reyan.

At this time, the trainee priests who were originally watching the show heard this explanation and couldn’t help but make a burst of noise.

only then did they know that such a shocking scene had actually happened. they had really been pulled back from the brink of death.

after reyan finished listening, he began to talk about what had just happened. “the succubus brought a divine weapon with her. the divine weapon can allow her to clone herself and teleport between her clones.”

doesn’t Sacred Heart Cathedral have a mythlock that prohibits long-distance teleportation? internal teleportation is also limited to a range of nine meters? ” zhao xu immediately recognized the loophole that reyan had just described.

it was sisylvana, the former goddess of magic, who had set up this maze.

Even though the succubus was carrying a divine weapon, Zhao Xu didn’t really believe that she could break through the restriction that sisylvana had personally set up.

Reyan explained awkwardly, ” “It’s a slip of the tongue. It’s actually based on the principle of reverse summoning, which is equivalent to it being able to summon itself from its clone, so it just happened to take advantage of the loophole in the mythological lock. After all, they came to the Prime Material Plane in a special state.”

reyan continued, ” when we were chasing after her, the succubus split into two again and ran away. It happened once every round. however, you can actually see through the illusions that the other party created with the art of truth.”

although the truth knowledge spell was only a five-circle divine spell, branch could still use it.

however, it was a minute-level spell, so unless there were enough spell slots or ‘spell endurance’, high-grade spellcasters would only use it in close combat.

therefore, when the succubus split up just now, only reyan, who was blessed with the trueshot spell, saw it, so he was the only one who chased after it the whole time.

as long as he kept his eyes on the succubus, she wouldn’t be able to get rid of him no matter how many times she tried.

however, no one expected that after the succubus split into many clones, it could also be teleported to another clone to replace it. in the end, it successfully avoided his pursuit.

“That’s why the succubus switched back to the doppelganger in this classroom before you could attack her. then, when zhongxia was about to kill her, the succubus must have been severely injured and switched to another clone.” reyan immediately figured out the whole process.

“this succubus is really cunning. she hid among these cleric apprentices from the beginning and relied on the fact that the players didn’t have a clear background and didn’t have any acquaintances to hide. Maybe he’s still hiding among the players.”

Reyan’s words immediately made the trainee priests in the audience look at each other, and all of them couldn’t help but look at their companions with suspicion.

“don’t tease them.” Zhao Xu said angrily.

his words were loud and clear, which made the players at the scene feel a lot more at ease. they then realized that reyan was just joking with them.

if the succubus had disguised itself as one of them and was hiding, it would indeed be very creepy.

“this junior looks quite impressive. he almost killed the succubus priest, but immediately realized that the other party wasn’t really dead.” priest blanch, who was already the age of everyone’s grandmother, praised zhao xu to reyan.

Zhao Xu’s calm and collected actions just now had saved everyone in the room.

otherwise, by the time reyan returned, there would probably be no one alive in the classroom.

This also made her feel lucky that she had cast a Death Ward on Zhao Xu first.

” that goes without saying. why don’t you think about how this kid can become a ‘senior inspector’ at such a young age? ” reyan was also very proud of what zhao xu had done just now.

“Oh, I’ve heard of a pit fiend being killed? Was it done by this zhongxia?” blanch, who was originally calm, now looked at zhongxia with a few more traces of surprise.

Pit fiends were existences that even she would find difficult to defeat.

However, Zhao Xu was too embarrassed to tell her that when the pit fiend was projected over, it was in a blank state, unlike today’s succubus, which had a priest level of more than ten.

“what’s a pit fiend?” at this time, a female priest asked in a low voice. she had just entered the game today, so she didn’t know much about the conversation between the big shots in front of her.

however, she also understood that today’s experience would definitely be recorded in the forum, so she listened carefully from the beginning to the end. the only thing missing was a written statement.

” like the balor, the pit fiend is the top existence among the ordinary devils of the hell side. it is also close to legendary strength. ” The male player beside her answered.

“didn’t arthur say that everything was a real deduction? every NPC’s life history could be traced back clearly. the priest looked like he was in his early 20s. he’s already massacring the powerful demons of hell?”

” don’t be envious, just focus on leveling up. one day, we’ll be able to stand there and laugh with the big shots. ”

Reyan didn’t pay any attention to what the priests were whispering about. He walked over to Zhao Xu and looked at the legendary undead staff that Zhao Xu had just used to make the succubus run away.

is this the spell resistance of the succubus that this staff just pierced through? ”

“yes.” Zhao Xu nodded.

All of a sudden, Reyan seemed to have recognized him. His pupils immediately widened slightly. He was so shocked that he could not care less about the fact that there were a bunch of people present. He complained,”Isn’t this too biased? When I was adventuring, I never touched a magic staff that costs millions of gold coins.”

These words made the two people behind him stare at the magic staff in Zhao Xu’s hand.

The cleric apprentices all took a deep breath when they heard the price.

“by the way, how many chinese yuan can arthur’s one million gold coins be exchanged for?” a player couldn’t help but pinch his face and say.

“If you ask me how much 100 gold coins can be exchanged for, I might have some idea.” the other player was also a little numb to this number.

Since when were the magical items in Arthur so extravagant that they could be counted in millions?
