The Truth of Magic

Chapter 99

99 the canyon

The next morning, before the entire team set off again, Noah specially came to talk to the players.

Last night, Noah had already informed leader ise about the process of the adventure and asked for instructions through the players ‘offline communication.

After receiving his instructions, Noah said that leader IESS was very apologetic towards them and that she would carry out all the compensation that she had promised them. As for Zhao Xu, she would choose to give him a magic item as compensation.

It was probably because of Noah’s description that yisi guessed that Zhao Xu was using a magic staff, so she decided to just compensate him with a magic item that was hard to estimate.

Zhao Xu didn’t really mind this, but the only problem was that Noah probably wouldn’t dare to ask him to take out that money-burning magic staff anymore.

The entire smuggler caravan began to move forward again.

yoyo sat in the carriage and looked behind them. she said in a low voice, ” “Is that the power of magic?”

After the poet frog heard this, he also looked out. As far as he could see, the mine that they had entered had disappeared without a trace, as if it had been erased from the map.

“i hope i can be like this one day.” The Bard couldn’t help but Mutter to himself. However, he knew that it was impossible for him to reach this realm since he had chosen the path of a Bard.

thinking of this, he couldn’t help but doubt himself. should he delete his account and start over?

Even though Zhao Xu’s own spells were only average after what he had experienced in the underground city, wizard Leo’s mystical spells had deeply shocked all of them.

but what kind of spell did wizard Ryan use to force us to move? this spell is too overbearing. If there was a trap at the side, wouldn’t we all die if we fell into the trap? ” The Rogue rainbow complained.

Back then, he had just shouted the secret code to Zhao Xu and told him that he had arrived safely when he was dragged away by wizard Leo.

the rest of the people had seen his illusion and had told zhao xu that they had arrived safely. they were then transferred away.

as for noah, he had been transferred away the moment zhao xu had reached the finish line and started panting for breath.

the entire process had been set up specifically for zhao xu. noah had dropped a dagger, and the illusion had also dropped a dagger.

in fact, noah had been so excited at first that he had been killed right away so that zhao xu wouldn’t see through him if he said too much.

“That spell should be ‘dimensional drag’, which can forcefully transfer people. You guys probably didn’t use will immunity, so you were pulled away. if you pass, you’ll be able to see the exemption information on the character card’s information panel.” zhao xu explained.

Wizard Leo’s spells were on a completely different level of difficulty than Zhao Xu’s, so it was normal that no one could pass them.

“Zhongxia. It’s all thanks to you this time. Why don’t you join us on our adventures in the future?” At this moment, Fengye invited Zhao Xu.

zhao xu shook his head. ” after i go to mystra and hand over my duties, i might have other missions to do, so i won’t be able to take the risk with you guys. ”

zhao xu didn’t tell her that he had to rush back to receive his training as an archivist.

Everyone knew that Zhao Xu still had one more thing to hand over to Mistra, but they didn’t think that there would be a follow-up.

Even Youyou, who could apply for the identity of a priest to take risks after being officially promoted, was rarely tied down.

ah, it’s fine. We’ll be training in Mystra in the future anyway. We’ll meet again. she smiled.

“Doesn’t that mean we’ll be able to see the floating city? i’ve heard of this mysterious building in the southern capital when i was in the tianbei business alliance. zhongxia, do you know what it looks like?” Rainbow interjected.

Zhao Xu couldn’t help but laugh. you’ll know when you get there.

Mistra’s floating city had a structure where there was one main city and many assistants, and Zhao Xu had only stayed in the main floating city before.

however, his attention shifted to fengye and he recalled wizard ryan’s instructions.

When yoyo had called out the name of the Demogorgon, Zhao Xu hadn’t taken it to heart.

He knew very well that demon sovereigns like Demogorgon were strong because they were in the abyssal plane. They were the children of the plane, and even gods might not be able to match them.

it wasn’t as if they hadn’t been killed before when they came to the arthur main world.

he could vaguely guess this from antonya’s tone.

however, he didn’t expect that demogorgon would actually pay attention to fengye, which was more or less due to the curse.

However, he couldn’t say to Fengye arrogantly, ” Brother Maple Leaf, in order to prevent you from being harassed by the demons, please die.

If he dared to say that, everyone in the carriage would probably think that he was a simple-minded person.

zhao xu was silent for a moment, then he asked in a low voice, “fengye, how many lifestones do you have left?”

any player who created a warrior account at the start of the game and was able to last for a year without using up the lifestone would at least be at level 4 or 5. they were considered big shots in the player community, and zhao xu, who was a warrior, had heard of most of their names before.

and he really didn’t have any impression of the name maple leaf. perhaps the warrior character maple leaf didn’t live to the end in his previous life.

Fengye raised his head and asked in surprise, ” “what’s wrong? i’ve already used up all my lifestones.”

as soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the car looked embarrassed.

zhao xu didn’t expect this to happen either. the death rate of the warriors in the early stages of the game was way too high.

however, he immediately realized that if the mage died, he would have to go back and copy the spells again unless he could pick up the spell book inheritance.

Warriors, on the other hand, only needed to go to the class training place, pick up their weapons, graduate on the spot, and leave. After all, they had already learned it.

This was also the reason why no matter how weak the warrior players were in the later stages, there were still an endless stream of players.

some guilds even promoted the sea of warriors tactic. That was to recruit a warrior with 15 talent points, complete Level 1 training on the same day, and then go on stage to use up five Lifestones. on the second day, after the cooldown time was over, he could register for a new warrior account and die five more times.

the only price was that the remaining people had to retrieve the armor and weapons from the corpses.

but after getting this reply, zhao xu wasn’t too worried.

according to their risky approach, the maple leaf ship would have a similar probability of surviving for a year as the demogorgon would dare to descend upon the prime material plane again.

Anyway, he would check if Fengye changed her number in half a year. As long as Youyou didn’t change her faith this time, he would have a way to contact her.

“my dear adventurers.” At this moment, the coachman stuck his head in and said, ” the canyon is up ahead. This is the most dangerous part of the road. Why don’t you come down and walk over? ”

“alright, let’s get down.” fengye nodded in agreement.

It was easy to set up an ambush on this road, so they were really passive if they were to hide in the car.

not long after, zhao xu and the others all got out of the car. noah then invited them to go to the front to walk alongside him, which indirectly canceled their task of guarding the place.

“Zach, why don’t you give your warhorse to Mr. Zhongxia?” noah ordered, not paying any attention to maple leaf and rainbow, who were anxiously waiting at the side.

After the news of the power of [ Mount charge ] spread on the forums, many warrior players were eager to take action. It was just that a warhorse was too expensive.

It was so expensive that even if a warrior pawned their equipment, they wouldn’t be able to afford a warhorse that could be used for fighting.

“No need,” zhao xu rejected the offer immediately. he would never accept people who exploited others for their own enjoyment.

Zhao Xu decided to be extravagant and used his bizarre foresight on the spot. He used up a blank Level 1 spell slot and cast the Mount summoning spell.

“what a magical arcane art.” noah had already become a qualified sidekick after his experience, so he praised her at the right time.

zhao xu couldn’t be bothered to listen to his bragging, so he just flipped over and rode over these ” light horses ” that he had summoned. although they weren’t suitable for battle, they were enough to get through the long and narrow canyon in front of them.

after this incident, rainbow would come over from time to time to pat zhao xu’s summoned horse’s butt.

“Be careful. Everyone, be on high alert.” at this time, the entire team had arrived in front of the canyon. after noah shouted, he directly sent a few rogues to explore the way ahead.

for underground forces like them, rogues were still a profession that had enough control.

“no, there’s someone!” The Wanderer shouted and blew the whistle before he even approached the canyon.

at this time, heads popped out from behind the rocks on the hillside of the entire canyon. clearly, they had been waiting here to intercept their team. seeing that they did not enter the canyon directly, they simply showed their heads.

“enemy attack! get into formation and defend!” noah shouted as he ordered his men to start the defense.

fengye and the others also quickly clenched their weapons and prepared to fight.

zhao xu laughed happily. d * mn it, they finally had an adventure that matched their level.

he had had enough of being a grandson.
