138 Chapter 137-appearance and shadow

“Are you alright?” the female wizard, lu, looked around and asked zhao xu with concern.

It was just that in front of her was still a dark and slightly red silent forest, and nothing else appeared.

the female wizard knelt down and picked up the fishing line between two tree stumps that had been caught by zhao xu. she then looked in the direction of the arrow and saw the top of a tall cypress tree not too far away.

she shook her head and said, “it’s just a simple trap. if it’s not coated with poison or has a critical hit, a damage of less than 6 hp can’t kill a mage with 14 constitution like him.”

Zhao Xu had even forgotten about the pain in his chest. He asked, ” “You can tell that my Constitution is 14?”

the female wizard, shadowfox, laughed,”i know you only have 8 points in strength.” if you observe people with different attributes, it’ll be easy to guess after you build a model of their upper three measurements.”

The female wizard, Lu, observed for a long time. After she made sure that there were no follow-up attacks, she also squatted down to look at Zhao Xu and said, ” it’s just a simple bow trap.

she looked at zhao xu’s wound and said, ” i have medical skills. i’ll take a look at it for you to make sure there’s no poison. ”

zhao xu only shook his head gently at the female wizard’s kind intentions.

After this arrow, he already understood.

This was Reyan’s warning to him.

The plot was no longer the same as it had been arranged in the beginning.

Even though Zhao Xu didn’t know why this was happening, it meant that he was going to have to treat everything that was happening in front of him as a risk that could kill him.

“How much damage is it?” the female wizard, lu, asked as she picked up the arrow that had injured zhao xu.

“6hp?”zhao xu replied simply.

After hearing Zhao Xu’s answer, the female Wizards, shadow and Lu, fell silent.

“What do you mean? Dark shadow evocation, dark shadow curse, and the like?” Zhao Xu thought about it for a while and finally realized why the two women were so quiet.

He couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

It would be troublesome if that really happened.

There were eight major factions of Wizards, and some spellcasters would choose to specialize in one of the factions, thereby gaining a greater advantage in the corresponding faction. Many players would also choose this path if they wanted to take advantage of an extra spell slot.

however, the price for this was that he needed to use spells from one or two opposing factions.

Once someone opposed the two major factions of evocation or curses, it meant that they could no longer use the spells of these two factions.

however, nothing was absolute. mages could also simulate the spells of these two schools through the shadow evocation and shadow curse spells in the illusion department.

however, there was a limit to the degree of realism. for example, the simulated evocation-type fireball spell only dealt a portion of the damage.

This was the degree of realism.

Zhao Xu had been hit by an arrow from the bow trap just now, and the maximum amount of damage he could do was 6HP.

if this was really an illusion, it would be a 100% realistic illusion.

it was already no different from reality. there was no point in fussing over whether it was the eighth floor or not.

They were taking a risk.

“i’m afraid we have to be more alert now. even if this is an illusion, people can still die.” The female wizard shadow said indifferently.

the female wizard, lu, looked at zhao xu with concern. “do you still have any more lifestones?”

Zhao Xu nodded. Five full pills.

however, he couldn’t just give up on the mission.

“since we’re all level-2 wizards, let’s talk about our own trump cards and see how we can cooperate.” Lu suggested after she got Zhao Xu’s reply.

“no need. we’ll just use whatever means we have. In any case, no one will know each other if I wear a hood, so don’t ask about the means.” the female wizard shadow flatly refused.

“that’s fine.” the female wizard said with a smile after seeing shadow’s rebuttal.

“then i have no objections.” Zhao Xu looked at the situation and realized that it would be difficult to keep it hidden.

in the future, when he reached a higher level and had more tricks up his sleeve, he naturally didn’t need to be afraid of others guessing.

but now that they were all level 2 mages, all of their methods were very limited. if they used them casually, they would just be writing it on their faces.

zhao xu didn’t think too much about it after he stood up. he took out the ain stone that he had hidden away when he walked over to the bonfire and let it float behind his head.

he then used a priest spell slot to cast ” minor healing ” on himself.

Suddenly, Zhao Xu’s condition recovered quite a bit, and his tolerance for mistakes in the face of danger also increased a lot.

The two girls silently watched as he used a healing divine spell that only priests and other classes could use. They also kept their promise and didn’t ask.

the female wizard, shadow, took out an ain stone just like zhao xu and cast it on the spot.

when the ain stone was floating around her, she took out a scroll and started casting.

when she finished her incantation, a cloud of smoke came out of the scroll, and the arcane text on the scroll disappeared.

Slowly, the smoke condensed into a human form and disappeared.

I’ve released the ‘invisible servant’ spell. It can Scout the way in our place. Did you bring a bag and shovel? ” the female wizard asked.

zhao xu looked at the +1 spell caster level ain stone on top of the man’s head and the corner of his mouth twitched. he had never seen this stone before in his previous life, but he had encountered a twin brother today.

Zhao Xu immediately took out the tools that she had requested from his backpack.

in a corner of the prophecy forest, the three highest-level wizards in arthur were crouching on the ground with shovels in their hands. they opened the sack and poured soil into it.

they were like three children playing with mud.

the invisible servants were good helpers for magic, even in academic lectures.

Although they were invisible and had no intelligence after being summoned, only the spellcaster could feel them. however, they could still repeat the simplest work under the command of the spellcaster.

from opening the door to taking out the garbage to serving the dishes, everything was available.

Even though the invisible servant could trigger the trap, the amount of power it could exert was limited. So, Zhao Xu and the others just dug out a bag of eighty to ninety catties of soil and let the invisible servant drag it.

this way, even if there was a pit in front of them or a trap triggered by the fishing line, the invisible servant could strike the lightning first.

when the invisible servant carried a bag of soil and moved forward, the three of them finally heaved a sigh of relief. at least they had avoided the few simple traps.

zhao xu didn’t think too much about it and prepared to put on more wizard armor.

“wait a moment,” the female wizard, lu, suddenly said.

after saying that, she took out a gunny bag from her robe and took out a stack of scrolls from the gunny bag as if she were performing magic.

that thick stack of spells was much more than the ones that antonya had given him to copy down for the journey.

zhao xu immediately realized that it wasn’t a sack. it was clearly a dimensional bag.

Even the lowest-grade model was 2500 gold pieces, which was more expensive than his backpack.

the female wizard divided the scrolls in her hand into three stacks and handed them to the two of them. she said softly, ” “you guys take these scrolls first.”

although the female mage was surprised that lucy had so many scrolls, she did not say much. she reached into her pocket and took out a small leather bag and poured out 25 gold coins.

However, this was only enough to cover the price of a Level-1 scroll.

the stack that the female wizard, lu, handed over had at least 10 pieces.

shadow couldn’t help but be annoyed that she had spent hundreds of gold coins on her collection yesterday because of her collector’s habit, and she had used up all her stock in one go.

She thought about the things she had brought, pursed her lips, and handed Lu the paper bag and wallet in her hand. “i’ll mortgage this wallet to you first. i picked it up in the floating city. you just have to put in 1 gold coin before sunset, and 25 gold coins will appear the next morning. in 11 days, you’ll be able to break even, but you can’t put in too much.”

zhao xu scratched his head when he saw this. his first reaction just now was to do a mental calculation that his wallet could earn an extra 8760 gold coins a year.

he had been visiting the floating city frequently, so why had he never had the chance to do so?

It seemed that the two female mages in front of him were mostly as lucky as him.

Zhao Xu looked at the stack of scrolls with a bit of hesitation. If he said that he wouldn’t be able to use them later, he would be lying.

however, he really did not have a few hundred gold coins on him.

Antonya also thought that he didn’t need to spend any money on the floating city, so Zhao Xu only had a few dozen gold coins left over from his previous adventure in his bag.

zhao xu didn’t think too much about it. there hadn’t been anyone in the floating city who would be able to scam him of his items. after he took the scroll, he was going to take out an automatic scriptwriter to give it to lu as collateral.

however, the female wizard lu waved her hand and blocked the wallet that shadow handed over.

“These are for you. because most of these were given to me by others, i think they will be more useful in your hands.”

“or rather, i feel that this trial is probably not just to learn a technique. it may have a deeper meaning. i also hope that you can all become stronger.”

However, shadow gave Lu a strange look.

The female mage had always been the kind of person who would treat others well with her heart and soul, so she handed over the hen that could lay golden eggs on the spot.

as the three mages of the highest level among the players, they would not go as far as to pick up things in the floating city.

however, she was also in the same situation, so she couldn’t help but ask, ” “do you treat everyone like a saint?”

The hooded Lu shook her head and chuckled, ” “i’ll help others too, but you’re all the first to reach level 2 like me. i’m afraid it’s not just because you’re talented, right?”

zhao xu and shadow continued to listen to each other in silence.

“That’s why I’m very happy to see the same side of you. if you feel bad, just help the players who need help.”

Just like them, Lu also took out a prism-shaped ain stone from her pocket and released it, which hovered above her head.

Then, Lu took out a handful of Level 1 mana recovery pearls from her multi-dimensional bag and handed them over.

you can use these to recover your spell slots first, but they don’t completely belong to me, so I can’t give them to you.

When Zhao Xu saw this, he almost slapped his forehead. He didn’t think that Lu, who didn’t look like a naive girl at all, would do something like this without any defense.

Even if he didn’t covet it, he couldn’t help but stare at the multi-dimensional bag on the ground, wondering how many things there were inside.

Zhao Xu knew that he had probably met the richest woman in the game.

no one would believe such a scene even if it was posted on the forum.
