The Truth of Magic

Chapter 75

75 Thunder summon

yes. the Druid glanced at Noah. I have to recall the last person who tried to bribe me, Otmar, after destroying nature.

Luck, who was following closely behind Noah, almost lost his grip on his legs and fell off his horse.

when the surrounding followers heard the name “destroying nature,” their faces turned pale.

Looking at the oak tree Men around them, no one could resist the great Druid’s anger.

after taking a deep breath, noah gripped the hilt of his sword at his waist, as if he could draw the courage he was once familiar with from it. he said seriously, ” your excellency otmar druid, how can we even talk about destroying nature? we’re just transporting some supplies to the border. ”

The Druid Otmar looked down at Noah and said in disdain, ” “I don’t care about your dirty tricks. I only know that your convoy can’t pass through here.”

“the items you sent over last time have already destroyed half of nanyu forest. We’ve discussed and agreed that all resources that are to be used to get between caso city and butan city will not be allowed to pass through beiyu forest.”

hearing this, noah’s face turned pale. he quickly said, ” Sir, you know that we’ve always been very careful in protecting the forest, and even every time-”

get lost. If it weren’t for your leader, I would’ve been from the Tianbei merchant Union.

After saying that, the Druid otmaris saw that Noah still did not give up and immediately began to chant an incantation.

zhao xu saw this post flash by and he was stunned.

This Druid really did what he said?

The highest number of lightning strikes was 15 consecutive 5d6 (5-30) damage. No one’s health points could withstand such a devastating attack.

In the face of such a scene of a high-level spellcaster chanting, Maple Leaf and the others were completely stunned. They didn’t know what would happen next.

however, no one dared to move or do anything that would cause a misunderstanding.

these oak men were enough to destroy them.

Before the knife Hit them, they would hope that things could turn around.

zhao xu looked at the druid, who was casting a spell, and at the clouds of lightning that were gathering in the sky.

none of the level 1 arcana and divine spells he had could solve the current predicament.

If it was a level 3 lightning summoning spell, he could still Dodge it if he ran 70 meters away.

But this Level 5 Thunder summon spell had a range of 300 meters, and there was no way Zhao Xu could pull away from it in six seconds.

This was the tragedy of being a level 1 wizard in Arthur-low health, short legs, and weak spells.

if he was lucky, the warrior maple leaf would probably be able to take it with his 12 hp, but zhao xu’s 8 hp was basically not much of a chance.

The entire damage curve was close to a normal distribution, with the probability of 15 or 16 points of damage in the middle being the highest.

if he only managed to hit 5 – 7 points of damage, it wasn’t just the goddess of magic who favored him, but also the goddess of luck.

Zhao Xu didn’t dare to have such thoughts, so he immediately took out the killer move that Antonya had given him from his backpack.

he was still reluctant to activate the trump card that was hidden behind his back.

Zhao Xu’s Howard’s haversack could allow him to take out whatever he wanted, and he didn’t even need a second to get it. He felt the courage that came with the item in his hand.

but at this moment, there was a loud explosion, and the druid’s spell was completed much faster than zhao xu had expected.

a bolt of lightning struck a spot three meters away from them.

the 10-meter-tall trail of lightning caused zhao xu’s face to turn white. however, he was calm on the inside and stuffed the thing he was about to take out back into his pocket.

The surrounding people had never seen such a meter-thick lightning bolt, and their faces were pale with fear.

after the lightning disappeared, only the light smoke rising from the ground showed the remaining power of the spell.

No one knew that there were at least 10 more.

The earth also began to shake at this time. The Oak Men around them moved one by one and stepped toward them.

“Retreat, turn around.” noah had already realized that this druid was being serious, so he quickly shouted. the attendant who passed the order also hurriedly blew the agreed-upon whistle.

zhao xu had already seen through the druid’s thoughts, so he wasn’t too worried. he just looked around and moved closer to the four players.

these people weren’t afraid of death, but it was hard to say for the followers around them. he didn’t want to be knocked down and trampled on innocently later.

the team in front of him consisted mostly of noah’s trusted aides, and some of them were his brothers who had gone through life and death with him. they had relied on these core members to barely pull the rest of the convoy back.

“follow closely. it’s fine. they won’t hit us.” zhao xu said to the four of them, who were a little flustered but still kept to their duties.

with that, another bolt of lightning fell from the sky.

however, it still didn’t hit anyone this time. the surrounding oak men also maintained a steady pace and approached.

the four of them slowly understood that the druid’s spell just didn’t want to waste time with them and forced them away.

“How extravagant, using this kind of spell to chase people away.” Maple Leaf couldn’t help but praise the Druid. He looked at the Druid with a hint of nostalgia.

Zhao Xu laughed when he saw the look on Fengye’s face. In his previous life, he had also seen that wizard fly in the sky and use a bunch of spells that made the opposing Army Run away like rats.

at that time, he also looked up to it, sighing that if he missed it, it would become eternal, and he would never have the opportunity to learn magic again.

The five of them ran for more than a kilometer away from the Druid before they slowly stopped.

The originally neat convoy was also scattered, and the number of carriages was also reduced by a few.

Covered in dirt, Noah could only go and gather his men, and he didn’t have the time to care about Zhao Xu and the others.

“what’s in this car?” After rogue rainbow’s face regained its color, he couldn’t help but look at the things in the truck.

“military weapons, and the materials needed to make them.” zhao xu said softly.

Casso and butan want to be independent from the Tianbei merchant Union, and they are both raising their combat power in a way that is akin to raising their troops. Zhao Xu repeated what he had read on the forum.

Of course, they didn’t want to fight, but to arm themselves so that the merchant Union wouldn’t think it was worth it to take them down.

brother spellcaster, how did transporting military equipment offend these Druids? ” the priest yoyo was also panting a little as she spoke.

zhao xu actually wanted to ask if calling him big brother was the current way of greeting people.

however, he still held back and patiently replied, ” “It’s mainly because the two cities produced military supplies, wantonly cut down the forest to collect stones and wood, and killed animals to collect fur, which angered the Druids. Therefore, any action to help them must have been cut off.”

“so it’s to be smuggled into caso and butan. i thought we were going to mystra.” The warrior Maple Leaf patted his head and laughed.

Zhao Xu just looked at the cargo carriage. From the very start, he could tell that it was some sort of military equipment from the deep tracks that had been deliberately made waterproof, and from the recent battle.

He had also guessed that the destination of these materials was Casso and butan.

Mystra could make all kinds of magic anti-aircraft cannons on her own, so why would a town that had been destroyed by magic have the chance to transport military supplies?
