The Truth of Magic

Chapter 91

91 locking onto the target

At this time, Fengye’s mind was thinking that the level 1 arcane spell charm human could only increase the favorability. He had never heard of an NPC giving up his wealth.

There were usually several types of adventure squads. One was a long-term squad with equipment distributed according to needs. the first was a temporary g-team, where the equipment would be auctioned off one by one. the highest bidder would get it, and the others would split the gold coins equally.

The other type was their type of employment. Noah would pay for the reward, weapons, and various consumables. Naturally, all the gains would belong to Noah, unless there was an agreement.

Even if Zhao Xu did a lot of work, they could compensate him after the event, and they could even split the loot with Zhao Xu later.

He wouldn’t have let him choose in advance.

the fact that shattered stars, an underground organization, was able to thrive in hurricane city under the leadership of the merchant union and even become a partner of the merchant union was not just because of its strength.

yise never mistreated anyone who had helped her. fengye had heard this saying when he completed his warrior training in hurricane city. rainbow had also experienced it when he completed the rogue graduation trial.

Fengye and the other three were well aware of yise’s power in the entire Hurricane city.

therefore, they were willing to participate in the mission after hearing that it was yise’s order.

But Zhao Xu had actually caused Noah to misunderstand and think that he had a powerful force behind him?

even fengye felt a little nervous. he could only hope that after zhao xu got what he wanted, he would be able to run far away before noah realized that he didn’t have much power.

noah, on the other hand, broke out in a cold sweat, rejoicing that he had not done anything to offend the spell caster in front of him.

those in the underground forces knew that mages could not be touched, unless you had another mage to help you hide or resist.

no matter how secretive an assassination was, it could not be hidden from the mages ‘divination spells. this was a lesson learned by the underground forces through blood and tears.

in one of the gang wars, noah’s side had clearly gained the upper hand. at that time, a nephew of a high-ranked wizard had appeared and demanded the share of power noah had seized back.

After that, their leader, yise, would even have to offer the other portion with a smile.

this was the intimidating power that arthur’s wizards had given them.

“Don’t be in a daze,” zhao xu said after he noticed that the fourth spell, vampiric touch, had landed on the barrier and was nullified.

at this time, the four rounds of spells had finally been completed. the next round was the time for the turret to charge up, which was also their opportunity.

“the rest of you, stand at the back. as for mr noah, you should stand at the left end of the corridor and stick close to the magic barrier. but don’t go out.” after giving out his orders, zhao xu went to stand to the right.

“When the fireball is fired, remember to quickly drag me in.” After Zhao Xu tied the rope that he had used to pull the person up to himself, he threw the other end to the people who were still standing behind him.

From his position, he was the closest to the rune cannon tower.

the runic cannon tower would always lock onto a target. after noah had passed through the pit, he had been standing at the front with his shield raised to protect them, so the runic cannon tower was the first to be activated.

Noah also became the target of the first to fourth round of spells from the runic cannon tower. The fireball was fired at his original position.

Normally speaking, when a fireball landed, the wave of fire would cover an area of seven meters. Even if a normal person rolled and crawled, they wouldn’t be able to pull away from it in an instant. Only Zhao Xu’s nullifying barrier managed to block the attack and saved Noah and the others from danger.

As the silent fifth round ended, time moved on to the sixth round. The rune cannon tower gathered energy again, and another fireball was brewing in the mouth of the devil statue.

“be careful.” Zhao Xu reminded him.

the moment the fireball left the mouth of the turret, zhao xu’s entire body was pulled back in by the crowd.

however, the fireball’s trajectory was not aimed at him, but at noah.

seeing the ball of fire flying towards him, noah couldn’t help but take a step back even though he was standing in the shield.

however, no matter how high the temperature of the fireball was, it turned into nothingness the moment it touched the barrier, as if it had never existed.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they saw this.

however, in an instant, outside the spherical barrier, another wave of fire rose up.

countless scorching flames directly covered their vision, burning the surrounding air.

the fireball didn’t disappear. It’s just that it can’t take effect within the range of the barrier. zhao xu explained with a calm expression.

then, zhao xu turned to face noah and said,”i was afraid that the spell would block the rune cannon tower’s detection, so i intentionally stood out and got closer.” however, the spell of the runic cannon tower was still locked on to you, which meant that you had been the target of the runic cannon tower from the beginning. Unless you’re 40 meters away from the runic cannon tower, you’ll be able to escape its lock.”

zhao xu looked at everyone’s confused expressions and knew that he still hadn’t reacted to the situation. he pointed at the end of the horizon and said, ” “so as long as noah stands here, he won’t become the target of the turret even if someone rushes to the bottom of the turret.”

“as long as noah didn’t leave or die.” Zhao Xu smiled and said, “what we need to do now is to send people to check out the situation around the corner. If it’s safe and smooth, then Noah can still make use of the break between the fifth round to rush over.

everyone in the team finally understood zhao xu’s plan.

“i’ll go scout.” Fengye stood up and said.

Zhao Xu looked at Fengye and said, “your Constitution has been damaged, and even your related skills have been damaged. Don’t join in the fun. Whoever has better roll skills, go Scout the path. ”

“I’ll do it.” rogue rainbow stood up. “my 16 dexterity is no joke.”

When he saw rainbow volunteer, Xu Zhao nodded and whispered a few words into his ear. He then patted him on the shoulder and told him to go.

zhao xu’s nullifying spell barrier could last for 20 rounds, and luckily, it only lasted for 20 rounds.

if it was the original version, the protective staff would only be at the level of a level-13 spellcaster, so the time limit of 13 rounds would be much higher.

the rogue rainbow knew that time was of the essence, so he did not dare to delay for too long and quickly moved forward.

Zhao Xu had rainbow, who had a high level of roll, go because he wanted to make sure that he really ran into another trap so that he could take a gamble and get through it.

There was no third trap in the corridor, and the rainbow successfully reached the end.

at this time, he was standing under the spell turret of the devil sculpture, and his forehead was slightly sweating. however, after he used the torch to illuminate the road behind the corner, he could not help but laugh.

there was also a long corridor about 100 meters ahead of them. although they didn’t know how dangerous it was, it was enough for them to keep a safe distance of 40 meters from the fort.

“I’ve arrived safely. You can come over. Codename 33.”

after a while, rainbow’s shout came from the end of the corner.

It was the ninth round, and the fourth spell landed on the barrier and disappeared.

“your code name matches. it’s rainbow. you guys go to the front. noah and i will be at the back.” Zhao Xu continued to make arrangements.

When he saw that everyone was stunned, Zhao Xu quickly shouted, ” hurry up! Get seven meters out first. It won’t be too late for you guys to daze off when you’re outside of the fireball’s range.

at this moment, everyone in the small team rushed to the front of the corridor in a hurry.
