530 Spells everywhere, in the midst of danger
“I actually felt the vibration.” Wang Ningwei sighed and said, ” that night, you told me your first prophecy, but I didn’t react at all. I didn’t think that there would be such a special effect in Arthur.”
just hearing it makes me feel helpless. The second line of the prophecy actually pointed to earth.
Zhao Xu had a serious expression on his face as he nodded. when I first heard the news, the prophecy itself could change with time, but this sentence that we’re seeing right now is so profound and clear.
In an instant, the two of them looked at each other.
This meant that the ” transmigration to earth ” was already a matter of infinite probability and certainty.
“Strange, didn’t they say that these prophecies can’t be written?” Wang Ningwei immediately remembered something that Zhao Xu had mentioned.
“There is one exception.” Zhao Xu laughed.
Wang Ningwei wanted to laugh but she couldn’t. it seems that I really have to put forward my schedule and ask my parents to register an account with 28 talent points.
on her originally beautiful face, there was a shadow at the corner of her eyebrows. ” then, zhongxia, if you said that you have a huge storage bag, keep it well. who knows, the third sentence might involve this mysterious stone tablet. ”
Only the “people” involved in the prophecy would be affected by the prophecy.
And this stone tablet was able to break through the restriction of “being unable to be recorded in words,” which meant that it was also part of the prophecy.
revealing the words was one of the ways it was trying to “tell” them.
“Then we can definitely decipher the rest of the prophecy.” Wang Ningwei said with certainty, ” so you don’t have any plans for the time being, zhongxia? ”
“Yes.” Zhao Xu nodded.
Or rather, the God equipment Lux in his mind was also out of ideas.
Lacus had encountered this kind of cracking method before, so she could give an example.
I guess the method should be the same, but the subsequent work will depend on grinding. Wang Ningwei exclaimed.
it was obvious that the mastermind behind this tadpole-like text had an easy time cracking the first loop, and it would be convenient for them to verify their own ideas.
However, if he used the same method to calculate the second loop, it would be twice the effort with half the result.
It was just like the calculation of Pi in ancient times. The whole process became extremely complicated when it came to the last few digits. Many people could not make any progress even after spending their entire lives. They could only continue to improve the method on this basis.
it’s fine. We’ve already memorized the pattern anyway. We’ll think about it slowly in the remaining time. Zhao Xu said confidently.
He was certain that with his current intelligence, as long as he had enough time, he would be able to advance to the third line of the seventh prophecy in a few years.
In any case, he still had a few brass treasure chests to crack the password on, so he didn’t have to worry about the debt.
Wang Ningwei also nodded, but she immediately reacted. everyone saw that the stone tablet was moved here.
Zhao Xu couldn’t help but turn around and look at this temporary wooden house.
There was also the “ding ding dong Dong” sound of reinforcement.
The first day they stayed in a temporary hotel, they were killed by werecreatures, so the two decided to move out.
Next to the temporary residence built by the workers, a few temporary wooden houses were built, and the workers were pouring cement on the outermost layer.
Indeed, he couldn’t help but think about it.
This was especially so for all the building blueprints and other stuff. They were all temporarily placed in this temporary building, so Zhao Xu couldn’t bring them around with him.
“I’ll go back and set up a ‘magic alarm’.” Zhao Xu said after some thought.
The level 1 spell magic alarm had a duration of two hours per level, and Zhao Xu could easily maintain it for 46 hours, which was close to two days. Combined with his extended time specialty, that would be four days.
Compared to the current players, it was a world of difference.
“That’s it?” Wang Ningwei felt like she could feel the torment in Zhao Xu’s tone.
“Naturally, it’s not only this.”
As he spoke, he looked at the cabinet in the room. It was filled with backup drawings and materials, including daily progress and various plans. It was not very precious, but once it was leaked, it would be a big deal.
Basically, he would take out the corresponding drawings for construction whenever the construction progress was at a certain stage, and then collect the previous ones.
Although rota also arranged for people to patrol this place at night and he himself lived next door …
But this wasn’t enough to stop a truly skilled thief. Even if Zhao Xu used a spell and stacked it on top of his stealth, he would still be able to sneak in without a sound.
Wang Ningwei also noticed that the cabinet that Zhao Xu had ordered had two doors.
He first closed a door inside, then took out a handful of jade powder that cost hundreds of gold coins from his pocket and sprinkled it on the door.
As he mumbled an incantation, the powder began to shine.
All of a sudden, they began to wriggle under the effect of the incantation, spreading evenly across the door in the inner layer of the cupboard.
Wang Ningwei instantly recognized the spell.”A level 3 ‘seal emblem’?”
“Yes.” Zhao Xu nodded in agreement.
I remember that this spell can seal a door, cabinet, or something similar to prevent entry or opening. Is it really that magical? ” Wang Ningwei continued to ask.
“that’s right, the door or object protected by this spell can only be smashed open, and the difficulty is higher. It was either opened by a switch or dispel magic.”
“What are the consequences of opening it?”
“Other than me, as long as it’s opened, no matter if it’s by magic or physical means. Deals 1-4 damage per level to targets within a 10-meter radius, capped at level 10. Combined with my extreme effect and twin effect, that’s 80 damage.” Zhao Xu said, satisfied.
but if the caster is level 23 and above, there’s a 50% chance of using [ knock ] to seal my mana for 10 minutes. Of course, this is essentially a magic trap. If the removal skill is good, it can be removed.
however, this doesn’t prevent the excellent effect of this trap that is permanently in effect and waiting to be triggered.
Wang Ningwei also understood. the thieves here should have been taught not to enter a mage’s research area without permission.
As she spoke, she couldn’t help but turn around and look around. there shouldn’t be any naughty children who came in to seek death, right? ”
80 points of explosion damage, even if successful Dodge could reduce half of it, it was already enough to kill most of the warrior players.
The Rogues, who were more fragile in the life dice, were even more so.
that’s why I requested for this cabinet to have two doors.
As he spoke, Zhao Xu took out a piece of parchment and wrote a short paragraph of text on it in exquisite cursive font.
The gist of it was a warning not to open the door, or else he would pay a price that he would regret. He also indicated that he was already watching the thief.
Wang Ningwei wasn’t in a hurry at all as she watched Zhao Xu write these meaningless words. Instead, she was waiting in admiration for Zhao Xu to continue.
To mages, as long as they wanted the words to be useful, they would be useful.
Zhao Xu stuck the parchment on the inner door and then cast a mysterious spell to activate the spell’s extraordinary power and infuse it into the door.
Zhao Xu sprinkled another bag of mysterious powder on the ground, then added a piece of Python scale and a handful of mushroom spores.
When the magic met the powder, it immediately released a cloud of green smoke.
When the scales were burned to nothing, the ichthyosaur transformed into an invisible snake that slithered on the words and then disappeared.
“What is this?”
snake mark, Level 3 spell. Zhao Xu explained. Then he turned to the side and blocked Wang Ningwei’s line of sight. if you keep looking at it, you’re just asking for death.
“as long as someone reads the words on it, the snake patterns will appear and attack the reader. If the target fails to escape, they will be caught in an amber-colored force field that is emitting a faint light and will not be able to move until they are released.”
“How long?” Wang Ningwei asked curiously.
“it’s guaranteed to last for 1-4 days, and every level increases the day. So, if anyone was unlucky enough to read the words on the parchment on the door, he would be prepared to stay in Amber for a month. However, the other party was in a state of suspended animation, so there was no need to worry about starving to death.” Zhao Xu explained with a smile.
Zhao Xu then closed the outer door of the cupboard.
In order to prevent the innocent from seeing the text, he was imprisoned for more than half a month.
This was also the reason why Zhao Xu needed a cabinet with two layers of cabinet doors.
“Mr. Zhongxia, why don’t you paint on the door?” Wang Ningwei frowned slightly. For the first time, she realized that she couldn’t keep up with Zhao Xu’s thoughts.
after all, some thieves might not care and tear the paper off on the spot without even reading it.
At the end of the day, if a Bandit really saw such a complicated thing, he would probably not even bother to dismantle it.
“Well, this spell is a bit expensive, so I’m definitely going to recycle this paper.” Zhao Xu continued to explain.
“How much?”
“The powder I just poured out is Amber Powder worth 500 gold coins.”
“……?”
Following that, zhongxia continued to add spells to the temporary room.
As the new spells were cast, Wang Ningwei’s mouth opened wide as she looked at the scene.
No one knew that the next room would become the most dangerous place in the vicinity of winter city.
