The Truth of Magic

When he saw the life energy returning to his body, this sort of completely visible action made Zhao Xu want to “farm monsters” for the first time in his life.

“I’ll do it.”

Zhao Xu had purposely stacked up a high amount of physical damage for himself in order to kill the giant mutated scorpions one by one.

“You’re going to use magic?”

The Paladin, Vivian, had already raised her sword and was ready to fly and sprint. These monsters with Level-14 armor could basically be killed with one strike.

It was just that she was originally a succubus and walked the path of baiting, so she naturally didn’t have many close combat specialties.

For example, high-level games were useless and could only use ” powerful ” and ” follow up slash ” to bully noobs in low-level games. Naturally, she did not practice it and was not efficient enough to kill monsters.

These small-sized scorpions in front of him had at most 10 or so health points, so they were probably gathered in some pit and then appeared together. It was obviously not worth Zhao Xu’s fireballs to clear out the area.

There was no need to kill a chicken with a Cleaver.

Compared to the abominations, who were immune to fire, the demons were born with only 10 points of fire resistance. Naturally, they were familiar with the famous ” fireball ” spell of mages.

After lady Wuyue’s training, she even knew that high-level mages could combine the fireball spell with various divine abilities, and finally release a ” fireball ” that could break through fire immunity.

Zhao Xu continued to run forward, but he didn’t stop what he was doing.

When the small mutated scorpions saw their enemies flying towards them, they started squirming towards Zhao Xu like a fountain.

Their small bodies were more than a meter long, and their speed was no slower than ordinary people.

Zhao Xu used his perfect mobility to instantly charge forward and stop. At the same time, he had just finished chanting the mysterious spell.

In an instant, a cone-shaped flame spurted out from his hand, as if he was spraying pesticide. The flame covered a range of five meters, directly enveloping all the small mutated scorpions that popped out.

The scorching flames engulfed everything on the spot.

These mutated scorpions that couldn’t speak could only hiss in pain and roll around in the flames in pain. They even curled up like roasted prawns.

Zhao Xu cast a simple level 1 spell and killed almost a hundred small mutant scorpions.

At this time, in a hidden corner of the tunnel, a small hole was quietly drilled in the fluffy sand that was arched into a small mound, and a few spinning eyes emerged from it.

“Big brother, is this the legendary fireball technique? So fierce? Just kill all these scorpions.” The one who spoke was a Ranger.

In the beginning, they had followed the first pair of adventurers into the cave. After snatching a treasure chest and alarming the mutated Scorpion, they had separated at a fork in the road.

In the end, the two of them managed to escape to this place. However, they found that the surrounding caves were guarded by the mutated scorpions. They could only bury themselves in the ground and wait for the mutated scorpions to disperse so that they could go back to search for the treasure.

The other warrior player, who was called big brother, shook his head. I’ve heard of this spell before. It’s a first circle spell, burning hand.

“How is that possible?” The forest patrolman exclaimed in shock, almost unable to suppress his voice.

Level 1 wizard spells were not a secret to the majority of players. Everyone knew that color spray was useful, sleep was barely passable, and so on.

It was just that it was difficult for them to recognize the source of the flames just by looking at them.

The warrior player had to rely on his knowledge from his previous mage account to make a judgment.

how could the burning hand deal such damage? ” It wasn’t as if the Ranger players had never seen other Level 1 mages casting burning hands.

In the early stages of the game, damage spells were a popular choice for novice mages who didn’t understand Arthur.

As for fire damage, it could be said to be the typical type of damage in traditional online games, so many novice Wizards chose ” burning hand ” as their first free spell choice, and the rest were ” magic bullet “.

However, when it came to actual combat, the 1-4 (1d4) damage of the burning hand made countless people despair.

Not to mention, this spell could also be resisted by reflection, and once it passed, the damage would be halved.

As for the players, they were low-level mages, so the difficulty of saving them was not high to begin with.

There was once a player who cast this spell on a chicken. In the end, under the sea of fire that was like a flamethrower, the chicken only had its feathers slightly burnt before it flew away smoothly.

This example successfully put burning hand, a 1st-circle damage spell, on the players ‘blacklist.

This was why the Ranger player was so surprised.

this spell deals 1-4 (1d4) damage per level. If the other party can fly, he must be a level 5 wizard, which means he has reached the maximum damage limit of 5-20 (5D4) damage. The warrior player explained.

holy sh * t, a Level-5 wizard is so powerful. He can actually turn something rotten into something magical.

A level 1 spell that could only deal 1-4 damage in an area was naturally trash. However, it was a different story if it could deal 4-20 damage. This amount of damage could even burn a group of civilians to death.

However, forest ranger immediately reacted. that’s not right. Although this is 5 stacks of 1-4 damage, and the average damage is closer to the most central expected damage, not even a single mutated Scorpion has escaped. Isn’t this too much? ”

The warrior player frowned. this means that the mutated scorpions didn’t have any immunity, and the damage was taken. Where did this perverted mage come from? he’s so terrifying, he shouldn’t be just Level 5. Damn it, I shouldn’t have deleted my account if I had known.”

“Sigh, big brother, it’s not too late for you to learn how to play mage now.” The Ranger player consoled him. He felt that it was a bit of a pity that the other party had given up because the early stages of the mage stage were too trashy.

Zhao Xu, who was at the center of the conversation, was looking at the small mutated scorpions on the ground that were already giving off a slightly burnt smell. He frowned and didn’t say anything.

As an insect-type creature, the spells that affected its mind were naturally ineffective.

Therefore, he used the burning hand, a level 1 spell. With his 28 intelligence, even if it was a level 1 spell, the difficulty of immunity was still as high as level 20 (10+1 level +9 intelligence).

This way, these clumsy mutated scorpions, which had a reflex immunity of rank 0, could not even think about dodging half of the damage.

It was a pity that each of them was only at half of the challenge rating, so there were more than a hundred of them, and they didn’t give Zhao Xu much life energy.

He couldn’t help but evaluate if the life force accumulated from clearing the nest would be enough for him to reach Level-7.

But when Zhao Xu thought about it, he realized that he was still too young. One really shouldn’t be too greedy.

At this time, Vivian also flew over, but she only glanced at the dead mutant scorpions on the ground.

In fact, the power of these mutated scorpions was comparable to a small team of gnomes with dozens of people. Even the local soldiers of a small town with more than ten people would suffer heavy casualties if they encountered them.

It was only because Zhao Xu’s damage output had reached a level where he could kill his opponent with a single slap that he was able to deal with it so easily.

Even if Vivian, who had a challenge rating of over level 10, had to deal with the attacks of the shapeshifting scorpions, she would still have to take them down one by one.

“Let’s go,” he said. Zhao Xu ordered.

“These mutated scorpions are too agile.” Zhao Xu was a little confused.

we’re clearly flying, and there’s no pressure of our wings flapping against the ground. How can they still sense us and assemble an Army in an instant? ”

Most insect-type creatures had the ability of ” tremor sense. within the range of its effect, as long as there was a creature walking on the ground, these abilities could locate the position of contact.

Therefore, it could easily identify the enemy’s position without even meeting them, which was why its invisibility ability was somewhat restrained.

Vivian, on the other hand, shook her head. She raised the sharp sword in her hand and pointed it at a mound that had not been stepped on. because those mutant scorpions are here to catch these two.

Zhao Xu finally realized that there were people down there, and he said coldly, ” “Who is it?”

However, the people below seemed to think that they were just bluffing and ignored them.

Zhao Xu laughed and aimed at the mound. He took aim from a short distance away.

“Bang!”

In an instant, there was an explosion.

“Hey, hey, hero, it’s me.” Immediately, the two people who were hiding in the ground hurriedly crawled out.

The warrior and the Ranger both raised their hands to show their innocence.

In addition to the intimidation of the magic spell just now, the two of them had just been looking at a stone in front of them, and it had been directly cut open by an invisible sword Qi.

This power instantly scared the two of them. If they didn’t come out and surrender, their heads would be separated from their bodies.

“Are you the players who fled from Luca city to the northern Alliance?” Zhao Xu looked at the two of them, who were dressed in poor clothes.

The Ranger had a short bow with very little power, but he had less than 20 quivers full of arrows, which he couldn’t afford.

On the other hand, the Warriors could only wear ordinary inlaid leather armor and hold cheap machetes, instead of the double-handed swords that were worth 50 gold coins.

yes, yes, yes. Mr. Mage, you’re also running for your life. Oh, I mean, moving? ”

The leader of the warrior players, Northland, asked.

“We’re just here to join in the fun.” Zhao Xu said.

While flying in the air, he couldn’t help but think. so, you are the adventurers who snatched these treasure chests from the mutated Scorpion? ”

“Ah?” The warrior’s eyes widened. He did not expect to be exposed in an instant.

But Zhao Xu couldn’t be bothered to explain himself. He was already holding the rune Power Magic staff in his hands from the treasure chest that the other party had stolen.
