The Truth of Magic

Chapter 700

700 Winning the bet!

All this time, Zhao Xu had been rather resigned to his leveling up status.

Neither high nor low.

Arthur’s wizard player system could be said to be a blessing, because they had surpassed the ” magic apprentice ” system that the native Arthur had been living in for more than ten years.

What was even more ridiculous was that they could decide their talent points at the point of creating an account, and thus obtain enough intelligence.

Among the wizard players, there were many who had 16/17/18 intelligence, which was enough to crush all the wizard natives in Arthur.

The fact that only 11 points were required to become a magic apprentice and learn how to cast 1st-circle spells was enough to stop the civilians in Arthur’s boundless rivers and mountains.

However, after the player mages transmigrated to Arthur, the situation was reversed.

A Warlock’s spells came from their bloodline, and the more they dug, the faster they could level up.

The priest’s magic came from the gods. As long as they appreciated it, even if it was a pile of shit, it was still a noble shit emissary.

However, they believed that man could conquer nature, and that their fate was in their own hands, not in the hands of nature. As a group of mages who relied on learning Arcana, they did not have such luck.

Countless player mages had to re-master their original arcane knowledge system. Although the basic incantations and casting postures could still be engraved in their minds, the ” spell models ” recorded in spellbooks were also very detailed and would not be out of place.

However, there were only a few high school students who relied on ” advanced mathematics ” to self-study enough to pass the postgraduate entrance examination.

As such, the mages would be stuck at this stage for at least a year or so without any chance of breaking through.

Not to mention the Wildlands, which was a wilderness of knowledge. It was not easy to find food, and books that recorded magic knowledge could only exist in the bags of mage players.

And even though Zhao Xu was lucky enough to break through to level 10 ...

However, that was still within the range of Five Rings.

As for the archivist who also studied divine spells, he did not break through the fifth ring in essence, so there was no barrier to break through the ring.

but now ...

A level 11 who represented the six-Ring Road was knocking on his door?

He was just making a bet with an Abyssal Demon Lord?

Could he really achieve what he wanted and the entire abyssal plane wanted him to?

What happened to the obstacles?

What happened to the stronghold?

He had just killed the two Balor demons, and the life energy in his body had not changed at all. But now, just by talking to this Demon Lord, he actually directly ascended on the spot.

At this moment, Zhao Xu felt a little regretful. Perhaps he should have made a bet on whether or not he would be able to become a God the next second.

At this moment, all of Zhao Xu’s stats on his character stats were being upgraded.

In fact, the moment Zhao Xu made up his mind, his Level 3 Magic guard was immediately activated without any delay.

on the other hand, he was still stuck on the divine arts, and he had not decided on the latest route.

At this moment, Zhao Xu silently watched as he became a level 3 Spellguard and gained one of the most important abilities of this class-

a spell of choice!

Magic guards that had undergone special training could cause minimal indirect damage to their own people when casting combat spells.

This meant that when Zhao Xu used sprint, he could choose a specific creature or subspecies when he cast spells.

For example, if he designated a human, then the human could be the only creature affected by the spell, or the only creature not affected by the spell.

From now on, when faced with a chaotic battle between a group of humans and gnomes, Zhao Xu could easily make sure that all the gnomes present would be injured by spells.

The number of times this ability could be used per day was equivalent to Zhao Xu’s intelligence bonus, but he had potential points and could recover it at any time, so it wasn’t a big deal.

When he reached Level 5, this ability could be further improved, and the number of specified species could exceed one.

If he had the ability just now, he would not have to worry about the innocent angels when he used his AoE skill to trap the demon.

It was just that it was not of any use in the current situation.

“What’s wrong?” The Fiend Lord in the air asked.

The face that was formed by the ripples of energy had a mocking expression on its face as if it was mocking Zhao Xu for overestimating his abilities.

“No, I just need to prepare. You don’t mind, right?” Zhao Xu asked in return.

“Sure.” This Demon Lord seemed to want Zhao Xu to admit defeat, and he started to compromise more and more.

It was like this in the casino. When they felt that they could win, no matter how many or how unreasonable your requests were, the other party would satisfy them.

Zhao Xu could roughly guess what this Demon Lord was thinking.

He was also happy to go with the flow, so Zhao Xu didn’t say anything and immediately cast a force wall spell to create a flat surface for him to step on. He also created a foothold in the air so that he wouldn’t have to rely on the power of flight to fly all the time.

On the other hand, Zhao Xu took out Howard’s luxurious bedding from his backpack and spread it out without saying a word. Then he laid down on it and started preparing his recovery spell.

In fact, he had the reward spell given by the power of the chosen, and he had chosen the ” anti-magic field ” at that time.

However, the goddess sisylvana had essentially offended all the Lords of the Abyss, both old and young. Or rather, countless gods were envious of the divine title that represented ” magic.

This was one of Arthur’s most tyrannical divine titles, so every goddess of magic was undoubtedly one of the great divine powers.

I have enough patience. Sure, you can prepare your spell after eight hours of sleep. The Fiend Lord suddenly shouted.

he looked as if he was going to have zhao xu under his thumb.

what a coincidence.

Zhao Xu was really prepared to wait for Antonya to finish her work first, but he couldn’t do anything about it when he saw how arrogant she was.

...

however, he still had to lie down in the luxurious bedding. in the remaining seven hours, he could look at the beautiful scenery of the abyss.

And just like that, Zhao Xu somehow managed to get seven precious hours of time.

However, as time went on, he slowly felt that something was wrong.

During this time, Zhao Xu quietly activated his TrueSight spell and tried to see if there were any creatures sneaking in.

However, he gained nothing.

in this void vortex, the demon lord kept staring at zhao xu. he was as honest as a paladin who kept his promise, and he really didn’t do anything to zhao xu during the entire process.

“I can only vaguely sense that something is wrong, but how did you do it?”

zhao xu was accumulating power as he waited for the level 6 spell to come. at the same time, he was also thinking about where he had gone wrong.

“Oh, I’m curious how you found out.” The Lord of the Abyss said with a smile.

It was obvious that at this moment, he had completely pinned down Zhao Xu’s last chance of turning the tables.

Zhao Xu suddenly started to frown.

...

“We’ve completed the contract?”

that’s right. Mystra’s magic education is indeed of good quality. Even a sixth-circle mage is of such a high level. The Lord of the Deep was already addressing Zhao Xu as a six-ring Soul Master.

Clearly, he could tell that he had reached the sixth ring.

Were they certain that he would not be able to master the sixth ring’s ‘anti-magic field’ very quickly even if he reached the sixth ring?

zhao xu thought to himself.

However, in the next second, he suddenly entered a state of extreme emptiness.

It was as if he was hearing a deep call from ancient times.

His real name!

the other party already knew that he was from mystra.

But what she wanted was his real name!

Zhao Xu knew that most of these abyssal demons had their own true names, and if you knew the true names of these demons, you would be able to get a huge advantage when casting spells like expel or Alliance spells.

However, did the true names of humans also have any use?

Something was wrong.

He had been too careless.

Zhao Xu understood now. His experience with grazite and Demogorgon had misled him!

At that time, the power that they could use to descend into Arthur was extremely limited. This was also why these demon lords needed to recruit believers in Arthur and deceive innocent humans so that they could be used.

No matter how much food the demon overlords had, they couldn’t afford to consume it after traveling such a long distance.

But this moment was his chance to truly come into contact with a fiend Lord.

As long as the other party was in contact with him for a long time, he would be able to exert a subtle influence on him.

Even if he won the next bet, he would be able to cause a fatal blow.

“If I lose, what will happen?” Zhao Xu suddenly regained his calm and asked.

“Nothing much.”

The Lord of the Abyss laughed and said, ” it means that I will know your real name and then turn you into a succubus.

You demon lords really don’t have any creativity.

Zhao Xu pouted.

He sat on the ground and took out an anti-magic field scroll, preparing to copy it into his mind.

Enlightened spellcaster’s ability continued to display its key effects.

As long as Zhao Xu didn’t try to cheat and use the scroll later, this Demon Lord didn’t have any intention of interfering. It just quietly watched Zhao Xu’s every move.

enlightened spellcaster. That’s a rare ability. I don’t remember any mages who chose that after the catastrophe. I didn’t expect to meet one here.

Then, he asked, ” how is that lady? ”

But Zhao Xu had already made up his mind not to answer and continued to dismantle the remaining parts of the spell model.

It was a good thing that Antonya had really taught him the entire system of spells in the very beginning, and she had tried to understand it from the basic principles.

She didn’t just teach him the A key. Even though Zhao Xu had been able to draw 19 models in one stroke when he learned zero-circle cantrips, he still had some basic skills.

In addition, he knew that he would transmigrate, and after his intelligence had improved sufficiently, he was also very sincere in learning the heart of magic. There was not much difficulty at this time, and he slowly completed the whole spell.

In the end, after an hour of spell preparation, Zhao Xu dusted off his butt and stood up.

He glanced at the spell slots he had and could not help but sigh. Mages were really shabby.

He was a sixth-circle wizard with 29 intelligence.

Among the level 6 spells, there was one class and one intelligence reward, so there were only two level 6 spell slots in total.

As for level 5 spells, there were two classes and two intelligence rewards, for a total of four.

He looked a little better, but he could only imagine it. Thinking back to the days when he used level 5 spells like running water, if he didn’t have the support of potential, he really wouldn’t be able to support this scene.

Zhao Xu looked at the level 6 anti-magic field spell slot that he had already prepared in his mind and nodded.

In fact, when mages cast spells, the real casting process was in the ” one hour ” of preparing the spells every morning.

When the ” standard action ” and ” Swift ” spell casting were really performed, it was only equivalent to the final ignition process, and even so, it was difficult for many people.

“I’m ready,” zhao xu said.

The Fiend Lord chuckled, and the vortex-like face nodded. I’ll give you one minute. As long as you can use it, you win.

“Then let’s start.” After saying that, a pressure that represented the violent will of the abyss came!

Zhao Xu’s entire body seemed to have been shaken to the core.

By affecting the concentration of the spellcasting!

to prevent him from casting a sixth-circle spell?

zhao xu didn’t think that the demon lord would think that his divine power was already at a certain level, so he still had to resort to such underhanded tactics.

But who was he?

Silently, he spent all 16 luck points on focus. The [skill enhancement] spell that the other party had cast was also targeted at focus.

In an instant, Zhao Xu safely made it through this wave of attacks and completed the casting of the anti-magic field!

However, just a second before Zhao Xu could smile, the space around him suddenly changed color!

All the magic energy was disappearing bit by bit.

All arcane spells turned into nothingness.

This included all of the magic items on Zhao Xu’s body, and even the force field wall that he was standing on no longer had its usual effects.

Anti-magic field!

This was the Lord of the Abyss ‘anti-magic field!

As long as his anti-magic field reached Zhao Xu first, Zhao Xu wouldn’t be able to cast any spells.

Then he would not be able to complete this bet!

This was the foreshadowing that the Lord of the Abyss had set from the very beginning!
