Chapter 362



362 chapter 361-the world is clear (4K)

zhao xu continued walking until he was about 20 meters away from the old building. then, he started to take out a scripture of the goddess ‘teachings from his backpack.

The people behind him thought that he wanted to read the doctrine to clear his mind and even berate the evil that might exist in front of him, but they did not ask.

However, Zhao Xu took off his Holy emblem and pressed it against the book. Then he started to recite a sacred oath in the heavenly realm language.

although only zheng xinyun and ellington could hear the contents of zhao xu’s oath, as the heavenly language oath that was full of rhythmical pauses and had a harmonious origin and consonance balance entered everyone’s ears, the other ten or so people also felt a relaxed and harmonious atmosphere. it was as if the closer they got to zhao xu, the more they could feel it.

in the end, when zhao xu finished reciting the oath, the incantation that was combined with the oath was also completed.

A torrent of Holy energy shot out directly from the Holy Bible, and then magnified and radiated through the worn Holy emblem.

suddenly, everyone felt as if they could hear the soft whispers of the goddess in their ears, and their ears went soft.

[adventurer zhongxia, you have cast the 3rd-circle divine spell ‘praise'( spell duration). Your attack, defense, and immunity have received A +3 luck bonus. Duration: 24 hours (originally 1 round/level)]

“Ah?” Immediately, everyone present couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.

The cavalrymen who did not become Warriors, although they did not have the Character Card system and did not know that they had been blessed with a magical state, they could still feel the enhancement in their bodies.

Chuck, the captain of the guards who used to be a warrior, also saw a message on his interface. However, he did not understand the contents of the spell, so he could only see the specific value of the increase.

” it’s nothing. i just cast ‘praise’ to everyone. ” zhao xu explained, and then he gave everyone a general overview of the buffs.

the other cavalrymen were still in a daze, only madam betty and chuck in the team were looking at the mage in midsummer with bright eyes.

“what’s wrong?” zheng xinyun was still not very clear about the concept of numbers. she saw that ellington also had a look of disbelief on his face.

Ellington was silent for a moment before he explained in a low voice, ” “the attack has been strengthened by 3 tiers, which is equivalent to everyone carrying a +3 magic weapon, except that there is no additional damage. an increase of 3 ranks in immunity is equivalent to a 9000 gold coins resistance cloak.”

there’s also the defense, rank-3. Don’t you understand? your chain mail shirt just happened to be rank-3.

“more importantly, this can be stacked. his luck stat had gained an additional power of destiny. However, if you don’t have the same faith as Mr. Zhongxia, you’ll only be promoted by 2 ranks. Only the goddess you believe in will be promoted to 3 ranks.”

therefore, ellington didn’t dare to blasphemy the fact that ‘praise’ was a very good missionary divine spell.

after spending a few days with mr. zhongxia, ellington had also realized that mr. zhongxia was probably a priest who had special channels to cast arcana.

Then he thought about how the other party said that he could make him a mage.

He suddenly understood.

the association of mages was unable to make an ordinary person a mage, but the goddess of magic could.

his heart couldn’t help but beat faster at this thought, and he became even more alert towards zhao xu’s instructions.

zhao xu turned around and looked at everyone. after he confirmed that everyone had received his divine spell, he nodded.

‘praise’ was a spell that had an effective range of 18 meters with him as the center. this kind of spell had a fixed distance with him as the center, and it just so happened to be suitable for ‘spell endurance.’

What was even more exaggerated was that enemies within the spell’s range would also suffer a level 3 punishment in those three aspects. In this way, the attack and defense aspects would be a full level 6.

In fact, the people behind him didn’t know that the 3rd-circle ‘praise’ only lasted for a few rounds because it provided decent bonus points.

The duration of its effect was usually only a few dozen seconds.

Now, Zhao Xu was using his ” spell endurance ” to extend the duration to a full 24 hours. This was the real power that was off the charts.

however, they would only be able to react to the rest of their exclamations when they returned to mystra in the future and chatted with others.

but zhao xu didn’t stop. he cast another spell on himself.

[ adventurer zhongxia, you cast the level 3 dragon skin spell (spell duration) on yourself and gained a rank 5 natural defense enhancement and 20 fire resistance. duration: 24 hours (original 10 minutes/level) ]

Immediately, a layer of ‘dragon scales’ appeared on his body, which was covered by the cloak.

this spell that mimicked the skin of a dragon made zhao xu’s defense increase to a total of 26 levels.

tier 4 armor bonus (mage armor).

Tier 4 shield bonus (shield spell).

Level 3 divine Saint bonus (praise).

Rank 5 natural defense bonus (dragon skin).

The combination of the four spells that would last for almost a day made Zhao Xu’s Defense one of the best out of all the players in the game.

In fact, as he leveled up and mastered higher circle spells, Zhao Xu could even continue to stack up his agility, deflection, insight, perception, and evasion.

zhao xu had already made a lot of preparations just to break into this mysterious, old house.

in reality, this was how a mage battle was. before the battle, the entire body would be full of status buffs, but in reality, the battle would only start in an instant.

because of this, zhao xu’s defense was now at level 26, and with the starry cloak and the ability-suppressing skin, it would be very difficult for him to get into any trouble against the old hag, who had a challenge level of 9.

In reality, Zhao Xu also had a way to increase his defense. He could make his defense 20 levels higher than the old ghost woman’s attacks, so that she would have to use her full power to have a chance of hitting him.

However, he did not have unlimited potential points yet. Even using the 3rd-circle dragon skin technique was already a pain in his heart. Naturally, he could only give up on the other points that did not increase much.

At this moment, Zhao Xu turned around and looked at Chuck, who was behind him. He glanced at the two-handed greatsword that he was holding tightly in his hands and said, ” “try to stab me with your sword.”

“my lord?” Chuck, the captain of the guards, did not quite understand. He could not help but turn to look at Mrs. Betty beside him.

“This isn’t good, is it? Mr. Priest.” Madam Betty was also worried.

Even though zhongxia had cast [praise] on everyone just now, Chuck’s attack power had also increased. When he swung his sword, the luck buff from the spell would affect him and make it easier for him to attack Zhao Xu from his weakest point.

” just try it, leader chuck, ” said ellington with a frown. ” you can’t really break through sir’s defense. he’s just testing the effect of the spell before going in. ”

he knew that zhongxia had just helped them stack mage armor and shield.

chuck gritted his teeth when he heard that and saw zhongxia’s gaze. he immediately clenched his thick two-handed greatsword.

Although the attack power was said to be mysterious, it was actually an evaluation of each person’s attack power. It was the kind of ability that could see the bottom even if one swung the sword blindly.

for someone like chuck who had an average foundation, it could only depend on his performance (level 1-20 performance). only a legendary warrior’s basic attack ability was above level 20. even if his performance was average, he could easily penetrate the defense of an ordinary person.

Chuck had received Warrior Training. Although his attack power was only at rank 1, his arm strength was not bad. With the 14 points of strength, his attack power was one of the best among the guards.

the sound of the sword piercing through the air spread through the wilderness, directly alarming the nearby sparrows to spread their wings and leave immediately.

even mrs. betty did not expect chuck to be serious about the attack. she could tell that he had done a good job.

it was like an antelope with its horns hanging, and it could even attack zhao xu’s lower ribs from a slightly tricky angle.

it was difficult for ordinary people to block, so they could only rely on dodging and luck.

but zhao xu just stood there and didn’t move.

this powerful and heavy sword was just a few inches away from zhao xu’s chest, and it stopped in mid-air.

The Knights who were just shocked by the strength of this wizard zhongxia were now all amazed by this Chuck. They didn’t expect him to be able to use such a simple sword to intimidate wizard zhongxia.

however, chuck opened his mouth and said, ” “Is this the power of a spell?”

after hearing this, everyone noticed that the veins on chuck’s arms were bulging. he was trying to hold back his giant sword and stab forward, but he could not move an inch.

The sword trembled slightly, showing how much strength Chuck had used and how helpless he was.

“it’s done.” Zhao Xu said.

chuck’s greatsword fell to the ground, but his arms were still shaking. it was obvious that he had used too much force.

Chuck had heard of the earth-shattering power of spellcasters, and he had even seen the power of the scrolls in the Redbud Chamber of Commerce.

However, in his opinion, the mages had achieved even greater results in a dimension that they could not reach.

however, he would never have imagined that a spell caster, who was not wearing any armor and was only wearing a priest’s robe, would be able to stop his greatsword from moving an inch.

after a while, chuck picked up his sword again. he finally understood why the madam had been secretly looking for a recommendation letter from the mage family to send the young master to the floating city to learn magic.

defeating the opponent in the dimension they were good at was the true essence of spellcasters.

After he verified that all the defensive spells he had were working, Zhao Xu turned around and walked into this old, broken-down cabin in the wilderness.

half of the wooden gate of the dilapidated house had been burned, and it was barely leaning against the door frame. it could collapse at any time.

After Chuck caught up, he followed Zhao Xu’s instructions and raised his greatsword and swung it at the door frame. With a creak, the handle of the sword broke and the door fell to the ground.

There was no response from the room.

zhao xu took the lead and walked forward. at this moment, the people standing guard behind him were all holding light crossbows in their hands and constantly scanning the area in all directions.

Surprisingly, there were no windows in the room, and there was no light, so darkness immediately enveloped the team.

zhao xu tapped the top of the meter-long scepter in his hand.

under the effect of the zero-circle spell ” illumination, ” his supreme magic scepter seemed to have become a torch. a soft light spread out and illuminated the area within six or seven meters.

slowly, the others behind him also squeezed in. they also held torches in their hands and looked at the desolate ground in the house.

The couches and chairs in the living room were basically burned to the point that only the shelves were left, and they were scattered on the ground. The handmade wooden cabinets were also burned out of shape.

“It only looks like an abandoned house that was burned.” chuck said.

however, just as he finished speaking, the torches in everyone’s hands lost their light, as if an invisible and deep darkness had swallowed them.

“hehehe, welcome.” an ear-piercing and hoarse voice sounded, as if someone was scratching a blackboard with their nails.

“Ah, it’s that old ghost woman!” one of the cavalrymen couldn’t help but shout. he had already recalled the legend nearby.

“It’s just so.”

zhao xu laughed and suddenly shouted out a mysterious command.

although none of the companions present could understand what was going on, they all felt as if they had seen through the old ghost woman’s weakness.

[adventurer zhongxia, you have used ‘dark knowledge (tactics )'( scroll Level 1 ability) and passed the knowledge (plane) check. [you and your companion have obtained A +3 attack reward, increasing damage by 3 points, lasts for 1 minute]

On top of the original Level 3 praise spell, Chuck and the others immediately shouted in surprise,””Another Tier 3 attack boost.”

Although they had never seen a creature like the old ghost woman before, it was as if they were born with the ability to attack their opponent’s weakness.

The addition of a Level-6 warrior was the difference in basic combat ability between a Level-6 warrior and a commoner.

at this moment, zhao xu activated another ability of his.

[ adventurer zhongxia, you have used knowledge piety (knowledge domain replacement) and passed the knowledge (plane) check. You have received A +2 attack reward and an increase of 2 damage points. ]

In just an instant, Zhao Xu had used this class ability to level himself up to another level.

All in all, he had gained an increase of 8 tiers in attack power, which was equivalent to A +5 magic weapon.

It was true that Wizards rarely needed to personally hit their enemies with wooden clubs, but Wizards had a lot of ray spells that needed to be aimed at their enemies, so the attack power itself was quite useful to Zhao Xu.

The old ghost woman, who was hiding in the dark, snorted coldly. With her night vision, she would not be affected by the dark.

It was as if it had already realized that the biggest threat in the field was Zhao Xu, so it immediately raised its hand and cast a spell in Zhao Xu’s direction.

“sleeping spell!”

it was an extremely normal level 1 spell, and the negative effects would only make someone fall asleep for 1 minute per level. the aftershock of the spell spread out two to three meters with zhao xu as the center.

At this moment, his teammates were all standing close to Zhao Xu, as if he was the only one who could feel safe. However, they were also covered by this ” sleep spell ” which had a limited range.

In an instant, there were more than ten people falling to the ground behind Zhao Xu.

But because Zhao Xu was a level 6 character, he had exceeded the spell’s limit of 4 Health dice and below, so he wasn’t affected at all.

however, the others, especially the ordinary cavalrymen, were basically defeated by this move.

zhao xu was completely calm. he knew that this old hag wasn’t just a basic template. she had probably evolved herself.

that was why the other party’s “sleep spell” had such power, directly crushing the majority of their combat power.

it was as if everyone was asleep, and he could break this spell by shaking them up one by one.

However, at this moment, they simply couldn’t find the time to do this with only a few people standing!

This made Ellington very anxious. He didn’t know whether he should cooperate with his Captain to attack the enemy or wake up the cavalry behind him.

zhao xu wasn’t nervous at all. he suddenly let out a soft cry like a rooster crowing at dawn.

the sound reverberated, touching people’s hearts and shattering their beautiful dreams. it directly woke up everyone who was sleeping.

druid’s zero-circle divine spell, ” dawn “!

A normal person wouldn’t be able to prepare this spell at all. Only someone like Zhao Xu, who had the ability to cast spells on his own, would have the chance to cast this spell.

at the same time, zhao xu had already prepared his second spell. he waved the ball of light in his palm and touched ” zheng xinyun ” who was still standing.

second-circle Holy spell-radiant armor.

zheng xinyun’s original invisible armor was directly equipped with an even more powerful layer of radiant armor. a ball of protective, shimmering spiritual energy directly protected her.

at the same time, the armor itself also activated the power of the level 3 spell ” daylight. ”

In an instant, the entire dilapidated room was illuminated as if it was daytime. The intense light spread in all directions, reaching every corner and driving away the darkness that had originally swallowed up.

When the rooster crowed, the world would turn white.
