The Truth of Magic

Chapter 439 Open Memory

Although there were many people watching the excitement at the gate, after Zhao Xu showed his "counter-attack spell", the onlookers were immediately terrified.

Those who have received training can fully see that the "stick phantom" condensed on the mysterious mage's body can cause real damage, and its own attack skills are also quite superb.

Completely surpassed the level of most people present.

It is equivalent to having countless afterimages of warriors attached to the mysterious mage. Once someone attacks him, that powerful warrior will stand up and give him a blow to the head.

This was also the reason why everyone dared not stop Zhao Xu when they saw Zhao Xu walking in.

This time, compared to the previous early morning visit, Zhao Xu followed the direction in his memory and returned to the dilapidated old house.

Compared with the last time, now he has influenced Zheng Xinyun, let the opponent enter the game earlier, and is about to complete the priest's training.

But Zhao Xu's gaze immediately froze.

Since the day of the last Battle of Falling Star Lake, the dilapidated wooden gate was not locked this time, and a gap was just exposed to cover it up.

The last time he directly used spells to leap over the wall, and did not use the "knocking spell" to open the door.

This time, Zhao Xu relied directly on the "flying technique" and leaped over the stone wall where the bricks had almost fallen.

"Oh, you are very cautious now."

Antinoya was standing by the patio in the front hall at the moment. She was just looking down at the surface of the deep well, her face rippling under the waves.

"So this door was really opened by you, the mentor?"

Zhao Xu also didn't expect that Antinoya would leave the door open for him. He thought it was some wild child who sneaked in to play haunted house adventure or something.

According to his philosophy, for a woman like Antinoya, whose ten fingers are not in the sun, the normal way should be to use spells such as wall penetration to open a channel.

How can I resist all kinds of spider silk and gecko feces on the front door, just unlock the door and then push the door open.

Strictly speaking, if she actually wanted to do this, she would let the spell do it for her.

"From now on, this will be the gate of the association. According to the traditional rules, it has to be open like this from the first day we arrived."

Antinoya explained, but she immediately said with a smile, "By the way, Zhong Xia, are you trying so hard to look handsome now?"

"spell?"

"The 'Revenge and Counterattack' spell you just used really made the opponent hit you, and then seek counterattack."

"Oh." Zhao Xu immediately reacted, "Anyway, I can offset the damage. Now that the effect of the spell 'Wealth of the Ruins Explorer' has not disappeared, I just use the star cloak to reduce the damage by 100% gone."

In this way, he can not only trigger the effect of "counter spell", but also be harmless to himself.

"Oh, so that's why you were so handsome at the time." Antinoya said in a cold voice, "For us mages, even if we feel safe, we shouldn't put ourselves in danger."

For some reason, Zhao Xu noticed the strangeness in Antinoya's tone, and she had the impression that she rarely educated Zhao Xu like this.

It seems that the other party has seen some kind of disaster example before, so he is so sensitive.

"They can't even tell the authenticity of your letter. Given their preconceived notion, it doesn't work if you give the badge. So you just threw a 'stinky cloud technique' at that time."

Zhao Xu nodded yes.

In fact, most of the people guarding the door in the previous life were his subordinates. This subtle psychology made him use a more tactful defensive counterattack just now.

"But mentor, I came here to be the vice president, why did I start from scratch?"

At this moment, Zhao Xu looked at the dilapidated building and complained to Antinoya.

Since ancient times, those who have succeeded in the past have been blessed.

What was developed in the past was to work for the well-being of future generations.

Zhao Xu, who has read the birth history of the Mage Association, knows better than anyone else how difficult it is to set up a branch of the Mage Association from scratch.

"If you can't even set up the structure of a small town, how can I rest assured that you will go out to control a branch of a country in the future."

Antinoya said in a calm tone.

After Vivian silently followed in, she regarded Antinoya as a saint, and stood silently at the door to watch out for the two of them.

Hearing this now, Vivienne couldn't help but glance at Zhao Xu more.

"country?"

Zhao Xu's thinking changed immediately before he could say what he asked back.

Antinoya actually planned to let him be the head of the branch of the national association.

For example, the association branch of the Northern Alliance will control all the town mage association forces in a region.

In this way, he wanted not to be fooled by the people below, and indeed he personally participated in the establishment of a branch of the association from the very beginning.

That is to say, people from the grassroots are not easy to be fooled by the grassroots, and they also understand what the grassroots can do and what they can't do.

"Then mentor, where is my president partner?"

Zhao Xu couldn't help but continue to ask.

At this time, he had already begun to acquiesce in giving up the original goal of paddling.

"In the beginning, it was planned to be vacant, but you are improving so fast, then we decided to let you take over."

"Mentor, my level is not high enough." Zhao Xu heard that, but he didn't expect to be able to be a higher level, so he politely declined immediately.

According to the organization rules of the association, he, a three-ring mage, was the vice president of the small town's magic association branch, which was barely suitable.

But for the official president, Sihuan must be required.

"That's right, so you can upgrade to level 7 now, this is what the organization requires of you."

Antinoya instructed Zhao Xu in a flat tone.

"ah?"

Zhao Xu almost thought he had heard wrong.

"Mentor, this is level 7, not to buy a Chinese cabbage on the side of the road or something."

No matter how listening to Antinoya, it seems that he can transform into a superman casually.

One must know that among the current players on the forum, the highest one is almost on the verge of level 5, but in the end they still haven't taken that step.

If he upgrades now, he can't jump two levels directly, and he can blow up the forum directly.

"As long as you talk too much, didn't I hand over the notebook I found in Wuyue to you?" Antinoya bit her lower lip and looked at Zhao Xu's distressed look with a happy face.

Zhao Xu immediately said euphemistically, "But mentor, you see, I've almost accumulated enough now, so it's not a waste to use a laptop to upgrade directly?"

He is now equivalent to a person whose progress bar has reached 99%.

If you still use the kind of cheating device that can reach 0% to 100% at this time, then you will be a little sorry for your previous "efforts".

The last time Zhao Xu chose to use a notebook in the end, it was because level 6 involved a "rule violation" involving two elites advancing at the same time.

Even if he circumvented the restrictions by swearing to the origin of magic, he still needs to pay a huge "accumulation".

So at that time, the "notebook" was a supplement to its own energy shortage.

Even the back is still not enough, and it is still relying on Antinoya to make a wish for him to break through.

However, Antinoya shook her head, "Zhong Xia, you are not a man at all with such a calculating personality."

"Mentor, I want to prove whether I'm a man, not in this aspect. This is level 1 life energy." Zhao Xu almost said through gritted teeth.

But he really didn't have the guts to confirm it to Antinoya.

"You must know that the artifact 'Holy Book' in the Church of the Goddess can also improve every divine spellcaster who reads it by one level. But everyone only has such a chance to read it once in a lifetime."

Zhao Xu silently spoke of the power of another artifact with a similar function, and told Antinoya with a sideways glance how significant that notebook was.

"Hmph, if you keep procrastinating and not upgrading, believe it or not, one day you wake up and find that you are the god of death, not you anymore." Antinoya teased.

"Isn't this a good thing?"

After all, Zhao Xu was still a little vague about the secrets of the gods, unlike someone like Antinoya who could even trace back to the first generation of gods.

"If you think 'you're not you' is a good thing, then it really counts."

Zhao Xu looked at Antinoya at this moment, and the other party's smile was a little subtle.

"Didn't it mean that death is the final destination of death, and it is a god that cannot be resurrected?"

"That's right, but the premise is that the Grim Reaper is truly 'dead'. Or are you more confident that you are more qualified to define 'death' than the Grim Reaper?"

Zhao Xu was stunned for a moment, as if an extremely thick lightning strike struck him in his mind.

He glanced straight at his whole body, as if the power of the real god of death would burst out from his body in the next moment.

The Temple of the Grim Reaper outside Mystra.

"Land of the Punisher", the demiplane where the God of Death once suffered.

"Land of Eternal Sleep", a demiplane full of undead creatures.

The amber sarcophagus, the storage place for the fragments of the god of death.

Keep watch over an army of legendary undead creatures.

Artificial Grim Reaper.

These terms kept flashing through Zhao Xu's mind.

They are all very close to the godhead of the god of death, but they have not really accepted it.

For thousands of years, the only "Edmund" who obtained and harvested the Godhead of Death became the "God of Slaughter".

But it also ended in "fall".

"I first let you enter the half-plane of the god of death to save people, but I was actually wondering whether to let you take the godhead of the god of death."

Antinoya walked slowly in front of Zhao Xu, "Because this is a matter of pros and cons."

"The 'godhead' without any previous generation's involvement is indeed a shortcut to the sky in one step, and the direction of the sacred breath is like this, so in the future his competition will be fierce. And the 'death' godhead is just the opposite. If you don't Handle with caution, it may be Naraku, the god of death, whose will has awakened in your body."

"Can upgrading be overcome?" Zhao Xu asked immediately.

In fact, at this moment, his heart was completely relaxed.

In the end, it was Antinoya's "will" that allowed him to obtain the godhead of death.

This proves that this "advantages and disadvantages" matter still "advantages outweigh the disadvantages" for him.

"That's right, there is no reason in Arthur's world that the stronger you are, the closer you are to the enemy's awakening. In fact, the remaining will of the god of death is also very weak. Only when you continue to use the power of the godhead will you activate the remaining will in disguise through this friction." It's just force of will."

"Thus, the stronger you are, the less worth mentioning is this remaining will. Especially every time you level up, it will have an impact on it. At the moment when it has just condensed a small amount of vitality today, it suddenly received this kind of treatment. Basically, it’s going to be washed out all at once.”

"Even one day, you become a god through other godheads, then these remaining godheads of death will become your incomparable nutrients. It will allow you to directly divide and control a part of the power of death. silk sequelae."

Antinoya's words slowly cleared Zhao Xu's mind.

No wonder all along, Lux just asked him to use the "Death Godhead" as a battery, or to use the power of this godhead to engage in virtual believers.

At this moment, Zhao Xu sighed slightly.

A person's destiny must not only rely on self-struggle, but also take into account the process of history.

Now, at level 7, he can get it if he doesn't.

"Then tutor, I'm here to fuse this notebook." Zhao Xu made up his mind.

"Oh, that's not necessary."

"Um?"

"If the power of the god of death is so useless, how did that kid Edmund become the god of killing? When you used that 'necromancer staff' to harvest life, you actually faintly realized in your heart that you accumulated more quickly. Life energy, right?"

"So now, you can directly advance to level 7 through other channels."

At this moment, Antinoya leaned forward towards Zhao Xu, and her head slowly moved closer to Zhao Xu, as if to form a bridge with Zhao Xu's eyes through her own eyes.

And after Zhao Xu met his eyes directly at this moment, he didn't have any thoughts in his heart.

"In the end, scrolls can cultivate such a large number of high-level mages. In fact, there is still a way to cheat."

"That is the stage of breaking through the number of rings. You can break through this layer of screens by learning and mastering high-ring spells."

To put it simply, if he can learn the four-ring spell, he is also a level 7 mage.

"But I'm not in Mystra right now, shall we teleport back first?"

"This method is to enter the final scroll 'body space', not the 'projection space' you went to before. Everyone has only one chance to have the strongest impact, and most of them use it when they choose to break through the 'legendary'. Do you want to waste it now?"

"ah?"

Zhao Xu was also a little stunned. If it really worked, Antinoya would have arranged for him to break through at every level.

"You can rest assured that the energy accumulated by the god of death for you is sufficient. You are now separated by a very small layer, and you can break through with a little force. So I also have my way to realize it in disguise."

"You just had the residual power of the 'final scroll' on your body. Although it is very weak, it is enough. And I have entered the body of the final scroll."

"So wait a minute, I will put my heart and mind on you and let Zhong Xia enter my memory. Then Zhong Xia can use the ability of 'wisdom spell caster' to transcribe Spells, to achieve a breakthrough to the seventh-level fourth ring. This space of being and not will not affect your sensitivity to hit legends in the future."

Speaking of which, Antinoya's tone suddenly turned serious, and he said in a vicious tone.

"Zhong Xia, I can warn you."

"At that time, I was in a state where my memory was open to you. If you dare to peek at my other memories."

"Then I promise that I will use Eight Rings' 'Transform All Things' to make you regret it forever."

"For example, you can only call each other sisters with me in the future."
