580 Your will is my will (2 in 1)
the moment you saw me, you could actually tell my identity with a single glance. Duya, who had been hiding his identity but had been exposed by Zhao Xu, couldn’t help but shake his head.
“Should I praise Yanan’s intelligence work, or you, Mr. Zhongxia, for your intelligence? I’m absolutely sure that I didn’t give myself away.”
Zhao Xu laughed and said, ” no, you’re wrong. It’s the power of your spells that let me know that you’re Duya.
Duya wagged his finger. in fact, I’ve spent more than half of this week thinking about everything about magic. I know that no other power can shake me. Only magic and divine power can reverse everything.”
duya’s eyes were filled with surprise as he looked at his hands. ” however, wizard zhongxia, your description of us perfect humans is too accurate. even i can’t think of such an ingenious explanation. ”
“It’s just that your action of immediately guessing that I’m Duya has disappointed me in the power of magic. I even thought that the miracles you’ve created before were all led by divine power.”
or did you call yourself an ordinary mage just now because you also think you’re a puppet of sisylvana, the goddess of magic? ”
Duya said with a hint of mockery, trying to regain his right to speak.
A new batch of candidates had come to the statue, and the only thing that remained the same was the Men in Black taking out bread from their backpacks and distributing it.
But Zhao Xu’s eyes were locked on the clay statue in front of him.
“If I turn around and leave now, you’re going to withdraw the letter you sent to the floating city to apply for admission and give up on being a mage? And then turn around and continue to erect statues in this camp to spread their faith and change their path of faith?”
Zhao Xu said as he handed the letter back to Duya.
The thick stack of letters were the letters of surrender that dua had secretly sent to the various large organizations over the past few days. The top ten letters were sent to the magic Association by dua. It was also because he was afraid of being intercepted that he sent them through different channels.
In the letter, Duya had also requested for the mage Association to send a few powerful mages over so that he could quickly upgrade his mage level.
In order to realize this, Duya even generously promised in the letter that if he were to establish an Empire in the future, everything he had would be taken by the wizard Association.
Naturally, this was not the price of teaching him spells, but the price of the wizard Association’s protection.
Unfortunately, Duya had probably sent a similar stack of letters in his previous life.
However, the one the Sorcerer Association had doted on at that time was “Wang Ningwei.”
After the letter was sent to Mystra, even if someone really did push it through, it would still be rejected by Antonya in the end.
it was already the fairest for the legendary-mages not to interfere.
in this life, the letter was directly sent back to ya nan’s wizard association and ended up in zhao xu’s hands because he was of a higher level than him.
Although it was not explicitly stated, all the high-level mages in the North knew that Yanan’s mage Association would definitely become the highest-level mage Association in the Wildlands.
All the mages in the Wildlands were destined to fall into Zhao Xu’s hands the moment the goddess agreed to use the wish spell to move the fallen star Town mage Association.
So, with this kind of power, Zhao Xu also saw how much Duya had to bow down in his letters, even though he was in the middle of rising to power and was like a god to the residents of the camp.
This was the difference of one step behind.
Even if Duya’s current stance was to beat the vast majority of players, and the static VALUE of his character card could be said to be at the peak of the players, he still lacked a solid foundation.
This was also the reason why Zhao Xu didn’t pay much attention to this name in the first place. On one hand, this person hadn’t joined the game yet, and on the other hand, he also wondered if this person could still become a perfect human if he transmigrated in advance.
Moreover, Duya was destined to never be able to level up his class as quickly as the players.
In the past, players had completed their class training in a week to become mages and Warriors in three days. He could only be envious of them.
Since he had transmigrated, Duya would not be willing to accept that his Foundation was not solid.
That was why he had initially planned to break through to rank 1 mage in a month.
you’re disappointed in magic because you realized that even though I’ve become the number one wizard among the players, I’m not as powerful as you think? ”
“Because you can see the details? For example, the statue in front of us and your portrait in the intelligence report are completely different from your real appearance, and I didn’t ask any questions?” Zhao Xu also went back to the main topic.
Duya, whose face was covered by the hood of his robe, looked more angular than the young man on the statue, showing an extraordinary spirit.
When Duya heard the keyword ” real “, his breath also stopped slightly.
The two were different. The fake one was the statue and not the man in front of him.
This was the part of the truth that Zhao Xu had pointed out.
It was also the crucial part of this encounter that exceeded everyone’s imagination.
Zhao Xu knew that Duya wasn’t in disguise, and the statue’s appearance was fake, not the other way around.
“So, Yanan’s intelligence network is far beyond my imagination?” Du Nan sighed.
no, I’ve said it from the beginning. The power of spells is far beyond your imagination.
Zhao Xu then started to pace forward slowly. even if an individual’s intelligence and reasoning skills are extremely high, when you don’t have enough general knowledge, you still won’t be able to think beyond the old framework. People in the age of steam, before the conclusion of Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction, couldn’t even imagine the miracle of the electrical age.”
the physicists of the old era, who were based on the classic physics system, would also be dumbfounded if they saw quantum mechanics and the general theory of relativity in the new era.
including you, Mr. Dua. Once the premise of a deduction is wrong, it will inevitably lead to the result of the deduction itself being wrong. Zhao Xu said.
an ointment made from honey and lotus flowers worth 25 gold coins. Apply it on the eyes and use this as the price to cast a level 3 ‘insight’ spell.
“At that time, even if the spices used for the spell were gone, the smell of wet animal fur would still stay in the nasal cavity and play a stimulating role. At this moment, in the eyes of the victim, everyone around him has become suspicious, as if they are different from how they used to be.”
As he said this, Zhao Xu used a gaze that seemed to be able to see through everything and stared at Duya, who was already finding it hard to hide his calmness.
in this state, I can see the true form of all living things within a 12-meter radius just by maintaining my focus.
“This includes whether the other party has changed his appearance or looks, and what does it mean to see through his true appearance? If the target has the ability to shapeshift, you will be able to tell from their true appearance.”
“It’s even easier to see that you’re not in disguise.”
Duya, who was originally proud of his perfect template, became cautious at this moment. He said in a guessing tone, “in this one week, although I did not officially receive magic education, there were still mage players who submitted to me.
at the same time, I also concluded a law of Arthur-only the rules can not be challenged.
As he said this, Duya took a step closer to Zhao Xu. casting a spell requires an incantation, a posture, and materials, but no matter which one it is, I’ve never seen any of them on you before. I don’t even smell the most basic of magic materials.
“Mr. Zhongxia, even if you use fixed spell and Silent Spell, these two metamagic abilities, you won’t be able to save on spell materials. This isn’t because the casting material is less than 1 gold coin, so you can’t use the material-free ability at all.”
As if the belief that he had painstakingly built up had been shattered, Duya instantly raised his voice, attracting quite a few gazes from the surroundings.
Zhao Xu smiled in response to this question and he waved his cane gently.
“First of all, I can tell you that there are no existences in Arthur that violate the rules, but there are existences that break the rules. I can tell you that there is indeed a way to cast a spell invisibly without leaving any traces.”
For this, Zhao Xu just had to use his supernatural spellcasting ability and all the necessary elements would be removed. Aside from the materials needed for the spell, there were also positions, incantations, and other things.
Because of this, even if an enemy was able to control Zhao Xu’s movements, he could still freely cast any spell he wanted.
secondly, I can tell you that the method I just used was not to cast an invisible spell in front of you.
Duya, who had been confident for an entire week, suddenly opened his eyes and muttered to himself, ” “That’s impossible. It’s impossible.”
Zhao Xu had just told him about the existence of a cheat, but in the blink of an eye, he had told Duya that he had defeated him with another cheat.
At this moment, Zhao Xu didn’t even mention that he was going to use any hint spells.
He just looked into the other person’s eyes and said, ” I told you, you know nothing about the power of Arthur’s spells.
“And you know nothing about powers other than magic.”
Zhao Xu, who was summarizing everything, looked down on everyone with a condescending attitude. He even gave off a feeling that he was sacred and inviolable.
In reality, Zhao Xu wasn’t lying to her either, because true face insight was a spell that could last for a long time, and he had been wearing it for 24 hours.
If he was in the world of Journey to the West, the lasting effect of the ‘true face insight’ would be equivalent to the effect of ‘fiery golden eyes’.
Every spell that Zhao Xu cast was like some sort of magical power.
When he learned those 108000 spells, it was equivalent to having 108000 magical powers. Moreover, these ” magical powers ” could be recovered and used repeatedly with potential points.
“As expected, this world of Arthur is very interesting.”
Duya’s originally dazed eyes immediately regained their calmness as he said, ” the moment I transmigrated here, I saw countless commoners in pain. Some were indignant at the loss of their former wealth, and some were in pain at the separation from their loved ones and their powerlessness.
“But I’m the beloved child of the heavens, allowing me to have everything that’s almost perfect. Even the gods opened their arms to embrace me. As long as I agree, I can become a respected priest in the next moment.”
Duya, who had just been hit in the heart by Zhao Xu’s words and was about to lose his will to Dao, immediately returned to his original form of a prism and used his ‘words’ to prove his worth and meaning.
The existence of the gods was reflected in the natural beauty of the world of Arthur, in the mighty military postures on the battlefield, in the tallest and most magnificent temples in the city, and in the depths of the hearts of every believer.
On the one hand, they were the ” materialization ” of their Godhead. When they stepped into divinity, they were separated from humanity.
But on the back of the coin, they were like humans, full of kindness, viciousness, conservative, radical, simple, complicated, friendly, unreasonable, and other complex emotions.
Here, priests were the ones who carried out the will of the gods and walked on earth as representatives.
Priests who were good at healing, even if they were newbies, could save people on the verge of death. Experienced priests could even bring the dead back to life.
As the priests of the gods brought hope and fire, the priest profession had become the most respected profession in the Wildlands.
It was even more precious than the iron rice bowls of the ” civil servants ” in the Huaxia region on earth.
so when duya emphasized this to him, he was also telling zhao xu.
He could easily catch up even with his professional level.
But in Zhao Xu’s eyes, all of this was just him struggling to survive.
Zhao Xu gently opened his hands, and a healing glow instantly appeared in his palms. It was as if he was holding the essence of life.
“Healing, healing magic?” Duya’s expression changed drastically in an instant, his originally stable aura once again becoming chaotic.
Although there had always been a legend in Arthur that zhongxia knew divine arts, a legend was still a legend.
The divine mysteries were different.
Every level of divine spell caster meant that arcane spell caster was one level lower.
With Zhao Xu being able to cast a level 5 arcane spell as a level 9 spellcaster, if he could cast a divine spell, then it would mean that the sky above the natural order had collapsed.
” wizards have a way to learn healing spells. this is what you meant by breaking through the rules. ” Duya hurriedly consoled himself.
as long as this was true, it could only mean that zhongxia had mastered a spell that was beyond the level of a mage.
Duya had heard from one of his Warlock players that one of the class abilities of ‘wizard of Dragon’, which was a class advancement that lost the spellcaster’s level, was to choose’ one ‘spell outside of one’s own spell list to learn.
Therefore, mages and warlocks could also learn ” Death Ward, ” ” resurrection of the dead, ” ” healing spells, ” and other divine spells unique to priests and Druids.
“Since you said that you can feel the grace of the gods, then why don’t you do it? Then you must know better than me what kind of energy I have.” Zhao Xu’s simple words had torn through Dua’s psychological defenses.
When mages cast spells, they were ultimately ‘arcane energy’.
Just like the prerequisite to becoming a Mystic, one had to cast 2nd-circle arcane spells and 2nd-circle divine spells. This meant that one had to be a level 3 wizard with a level 3 priest as a secondary profession.
Zhao Xu actually knew that there was a specialty called spell type conversion. This specialty could allow a wizard to cast divine spells like fireballs.
However, he would not explain too much to Duya.
duya’s eyes seemed to have lost all color in an instant.
He had just proven to Zhao Xu that he could easily become the most respected priest in the Wildlands.
But the next moment, Zhao Xu proved to him that he could cast divine spells.
That was why he, zhongxia, had also become a priest, even earlier than him.
Every expert had a set of self-constructed logic in the depths of their hearts.
In his previous life, even when Duya was facing the unbeatable Wang Ningwei, he still held on with his last breath. Naturally, he felt that he was not inferior to her as he was the perfect human who could turn the tables one day.
And right now, Zhao Xu was proving it to Duya.
Without a perfect template, he was even more perfect than his opponent.
The next moment, Zhao Xu slowly opened his mouth and slowly revealed some of the contents of his stats window.
The final barrier that Duya was originally proud of was also starting to be squeezed through bit by bit by the other party.
At this time, he began to pant as he looked at the followers who were protecting him in the surroundings. He waved his hand gently, as if he wanted to get comfort from these people.
“Group human hold.”
Zhao Xu enunciated each word clearly. He wasn’t saying a spell to pronounce the words in dragon language, but rather, he was pronouncing the words in perfect Chinese.
he wasn’t casting a spell at all, but telling dua what spell he was going to cast.
In an instant, the three top-tier players in Duya’s hands, who were about to approach, stood still and dazed, as if they had lost their minds.
Even though Zhao Xu was chanting the level 7 [group hold people spell ], he was actually using the level 3 [hold people spell ], and he was using his potential points to imitate the [chain spell] specialty.
However, the effect was the same at the moment, and the human stop spell chain was also at the seventh-circle after being cast.
“Do you see that?” Zhao Xu said with a smile.
“I know you want me to work for you, but that’s just wishful thinking.” Suddenly, Duya shouted, ” I am the undisputed leader of this camp of glory. I will not yield to anyone. Even if I am defeated by you, I will die standing.
Suddenly, the passersby on the street looked over in surprise. However, when they heard Duya’s words, their bodies trembled as well. They hurriedly bowed and looked over humbly.
after several days of hunger education, the people in the camp had been deeply engraved with the mark of ” respecting the leader. ” at this moment, even if they didn’t know whether it was true or not, they didn’t dare to overstep their boundaries.
“Do you think that my spell won’t be able to resist your spell?” Zhao Xu still had a smile on his face and was very calm.
” spell resistance reduction (level 4). ”
[ perfect human dua, your spell resistance has dropped by 15 levels ]
touch of the fool (Level 2), spell twins, spell extremity, and spell empower.
[ perfect human du ya, your intelligence, perception, and charm have been reduced by 18 points. ]
powerful curse descent (Level 6, wish simulation).
[ perfect human dua, your attack, immunity, attribute check, and skill check have received A-8 penalty ]
……
As Zhao Xu read out the names of the spells, most of these effects that were permanently effective slowly wiped away the advantage that Duya had as a perfect human being, and also wiped away all of his pride.
In the end, Duya was just like an ordinary civilian.
“Yes, you can turn around now.”
When he heard this, Duya instantly realized that the effect of the ” human hold ” spell on him had disappeared. He was just instinctively restraining himself, afraid that he would act according to Zhao Xu’s will.
However, his body still turned around uncontrollably and faced the center of the camp, where he lived.
“I forgot to tell you that this is a second-level command spell, second circle.”
However, at this moment, Duya could no longer listen.
His eyes landed in the center of the camp. The flag with his surname was lowered, and the flag representing Yanan was raised.
It was also in this short period of time that glory camp had completely changed hands.
then you’re done. That’s it. Camp glory, it’s time to erase the last traces you left behind. Zhao Xu’s voice came from behind Duya, and it had a cold and sinister tone to it.
Duya also felt the strength in his body slowly fading away as if he was about to fall asleep. He immediately used his last bit of strength to shout-
“My Lord, from now on, your will is my will.”
