The Truth of Magic

Chapter 520

520 The religion of the death god, the last words of the dead

“What are you doing?”

the tall and skinny captain shouted as he watched zhao xu slowly walk towards the corpse.

after eliminating the first stage of chaos and the arrival of the night patrol team, they had slowly taken control of the situation.

Naturally, he would not allow any random people to rashly intervene.

However, Zhao Xu just casually waved the wizard badge in his hand, and this caused the team leader to be stunned for a few seconds.

Then, Zhao Xu crouched down and looked at the body that was now completely pale.

Unless an ordinary person encountered a car accident or an elder died of old age, they might not be able to see a corpse in their entire life.

However, in Arthur, even those players who signed up for the “spring outing group” and didn’t participate in the battle but just enjoyed the scenery in the game would often see dead bodies.

Arthur had never been a peaceful paradise.

Zhao Xu put on his gloves and started observing the body in front of him.

He had the ” Medical ” skill level that he had delved into because of his priest level, and he was currently undergoing a basic examination.

the coroner who had wanted to stop zhao xu suddenly realized what was going on when he saw this. he mistook zhao xu for another coroner, so he didn’t do much.

“Master.” Suddenly, Lux said enthusiastically.

“What’s wrong?”

Zhao Xu was surprised. It was just a civilian’s corpse, so why would Lux, who was on standby mode, make a sound?

“Master, why haven’t you been taking care of your followers?” lacus lectured zhao xu with a sense of justice.

“You mean Yun-er?”

Zhao Xu suddenly realized something. I was so noisy during the day. I don’t think I’ll let her stay at night and chat with her in my room.

not to mention it’s the middle of the night. She’s long gone offline to sleep.

“I’m convinced, big blockhead.” Lacus raised her voice. master, if you don’t recruit more believers, are you really preparing to become the god of death in the future? ”

When he heard this, Zhao Xu’s heart skipped a beat.

The pair of dragon gods, Tiamat and Bahamut, were not very strong, but their ability to survive was rare in this world.

They had experienced the Twilight of the Gods three times and remained unmoved.

On the other hand, all kinds of “God of Slaughter,””God of murder,””God of War,””god of the dead” and so on that were related to the death god were changing rapidly.

The death gods seemed to be a “God system” that was born cursed by the gods.

As a godhood that was born with several kinds of peak sword-finger positions, there was no one who dared to completely control death.

Judging from Arthur’s current situation, only a few gods each had a part of it and didn’t dare to go deep.

“Lacus, when I touch you, I feel like I’ve entered a trap.”

Zhao Xu pried open the dead man’s mouth to check through his gloves as he complained in his heart, ever since I got this death divinity fragment, you’ve been acting up and down, and now you’re urging me to quickly establish my own followers.

but fishing should at least let people know what kind of fish can be harvested from this fish pond.

Hearing this, lacus was a little embarrassed. master, about this, I was in a state of consolidation and exploration before, so I couldn’t tell you everything.

but now, I’m basically clear.

master, go and consolidate Zheng xinyun’s Foundation first. Let her know whose priest she is.

Zhao Xu couldn’t help but ask in return, ” were you the one who dragged her to Starfall town? ”

“Hehe, yes. Master, you should have done this earlier, but I’m curious why you didn’t do anything after you accepted her. ”

Zhao Xu felt a little bitter, but he didn’t explain anything to Lux.

In her previous life, Zheng xinyun had died in Starfall town.

In his heart, there was more or less a kind of “taboo” about the repetition of fate.

“Then I’ll go and tell her everything when she’s online tomorrow.” Zhao Xu said.

“Oh my God.” Suddenly, Lux let out a sorrowful cry.

The people around him also saw that Zhao Xu seemed to have suddenly trembled. They thought that he had found a key clue, so they couldn’t help but stick their heads out to take a closer look.

“Why are you so surprised again?” Zhao Xu was helpless.

master, if you use zhongxia’s identity to face Zheng xinyun tomorrow, I guarantee that you’ll never be able to establish this believer in your entire life.

“You’re right.” Zhao Xu finally understood.

If they were too familiar with each other, they would naturally not have a feeling of reverence.

It was just like how he was so familiar with Antonya now that it was hard for outsiders to see her ” worshiping ” a legendary wizard like she did.

At the very beginning, Zhao Xu had seen sisylvana from a thousand years ago, before she had become a God, and she had also been very friendly to him.

Zhao Xu was definitely a “shallow believer” in the eyes of the goddess of magic.

moreover, if you personally take action, then I guarantee that you’ll be waiting for yourself to be nailed to death as a god of death.

Lacus warned, “so, from this moment on, master, you have to create a ‘clone’ of death. Even the divine grace on Zheng xinyun has to be carried out through this image.

“slowly, after zheng xinyun helps you spread the branches of the believers, you can remotely control the ‘fake death’ from behind the scenes. This way, even if this Grim Reaper is stopped, you can still escape unscathed, master.”

however, if such a situation really happens and you have to cut off your arm to survive, your believers will probably only be able to protect Zheng xinyun.

But when Zhao Xu heard this, he was surprisingly calm.

...

He had realized that if he was a farmer, then his believers were the crops in the farmland.

What he needed was to harvest the crops during the golden season of abundance.

He did not love these manors deeply.

This was also the most undisguised relationship between a God and his believers.

Spreading the grace of God and offering faith.

As for the outermost layer, it naturally needed to be wrapped with ‘concepts’.

Thinking about this, Zhao Xu nodded. I understand. I’ll do my best to get this done.

Now that he had a direction in his heart, Zhao Xu’s expression returned to normal as he looked at the corpse in front of him.

The wife of the deceased was wailing so loudly that her tears even wet her linen clothes.

“If you can’t, then come down.”

“What hero?”

...

When they saw that Zhao Xu hadn’t done anything for a long time or come up with a specific plan, the people in the audience started to feel a little dissatisfied.

“Do you have an idea?” The coroner on the side could also tell that Xu Zhao was a passerby with good medical skills. He might even be a doctor, so he still spoke to him politely.

“It’s no use.” At this moment, the Barbarian player, furious wave, walked over and stood behind him.

His wide-open eyes, which were similar to that of an orc, seemed to have noticed the truth of the case.

“the way beastmen think is different from us humans,”

The Barbarian player was essentially the soul of a human. they, who are discriminated against, will attack humans and spread the disease of beastification, expanding the infected group of beastification.

usually, this kind of attack is random and will not leave any traces.

The Barbarian nu lang concluded, ” I believe you know better than me that the most difficult cases on earth are mostly random killings. On the other hand, it’s easy to catch people who are familiar with each other.”

These words were not complicated, and everyone present nodded subconsciously.

This also meant that this “murder case” was covered with another layer of shadow.

However, Zhao Xu turned around and said, ” “What you said does make sense. That’s why I need to ask the deceased.”

Hearing this, the Barbarian nu lang couldn’t help but laugh, ” don’t be silly. The souls of the dead have already returned to the God Country. Even if you can teleport to another world, can you find the dead among those countless souls? ”

“Not to mention, you can’t even enter the divine Kingdom.”

Zhao Xu grinned and showed his pearly white teeth. we Wizards are the existences that can turn the impossible into the possible.

“Talking to the dead?” The coroner on the side couldn’t help but exclaim, suddenly thinking of this possibility.

However, he immediately hesitated. this is a 3rd Circle Divine Art.

But right now, Zhao Xu was using all four of his abilities together: ‘instant cast’,’ multi-talented spellcaster’, ‘ring of silence (Silent Spell)’, and’ concealed spell (concealed spell casting action)’.

From an outsider’s point of view, he just snapped his fingers lightly, which seemed a little complicated.

there was no sign of him casting a spell at all.

Even if there were mage players present, they couldn’t recognize the signs of casting the spell.

“What are the characteristics of the person who killed you?” zhao xu asked as he looked at the dead man.

When angry wave noticed that there weren’t any traces of the corpse, he couldn’t help but laugh, ” or is it some kind of witchcraft ritual?”

The commoners of Arthur might still be ignorant and distant from magic, but the adventurers all knew about magic and believed in its power.

Therefore, he knew what was needed to cast a spell.

“Casting spells also requires some movement or something.” the coroner also corrected zhao xu awkwardly.

he thought that zhao xu was pretending to cast a spell because he had other plans and wanted to fish out the killer.

however ...

In the next moment, the body that was lying on the ground opened its mouth and made a soft sound that was almost like mumbling.

“It was my wife who killed me.”

the expression of the woman who was lying on the corpse suddenly changed. she said in horror, ” it wasn’t me. it really wasn’t me. ”

Before the people around her could say anything, she leaned back nervously and fell to the ground.

The Barbarian player, furious wave, couldn’t just stand by and watch anymore. He stretched out his thick and strong arm and grabbed Zhao Xu’s arm tightly as he glared at him and said, ” “I don’t know what tricks you’re playing, but your act of bullying a widow is very shameful in my opinion.”

However, his expression immediately changed.

This was because Zhao Xu, who was being held by him, wasn’t moving at all.

With his innate roll of 18 points of strength, together with the Beastman race adjustment of 2 points and the +2 strength belt, his strength of more than 20 points completely crushed the average player.

nu lang couldn’t accept this, so he gritted his teeth!

Berserk!

Relying on the barbarian’s unique skill, rage, nu Lang’s physique and strength were both increased by 4 points.

The muscles all over his body seemed to have expanded by a circle, becoming incomparably sturdy and strong.

With these 27 points of strength, nu lang gritted his teeth and tried his best to drag Zhao Xu away from him.

However, he was once again disappointed to find that the man in front of him still did not move.

Under the effect of his 27 points of strength, a low wall that wasn’t very solid would be pushed down on the spot.

For the first time, nu Lang’s eyes revealed a “seeing a ghost” expression.

“ah!” At this moment, the victim’s wife let out a frightened cry, as if she could not accept the shock just now.

“You don’t have to worry.”

The player angry wave immediately turned his head to comfort the other side, but his face instantly changed.

Even the crowd watching the show below the stage let out a wave of exclamations.

Those who were close to him all kicked their legs and rushed out, completely different from their initial attitude of watching the fun.

The head of the woman whose husband had died slowly turned into the head of a mouse, revealing a sharp protruding mouth and fine teeth. Mouse whiskers also grew on her face.
