The Truth of Magic-Chapter 62
62 The real ain stone
zhao xu didnβt put on the ain stone after he got it. he just put it in the middle pocket of his convenience bag. π§πΏeeπ πππoππl.π૦πΊ
in the early stages of the game, walking around with an aen stone on top of oneβs head was really a breeze.
but zhao xu couldnβt wait for others to look at him like he was a noob.
He didnβt want to attract anyoneβs attention, and his main focus was to develop quietly.
in the early stages of the game, as long as he was not detected by the detection spell, the players would not know that he had a magic item.
zhao xu didnβt think too much about it when he saw how antonya was clearly telling him to be independent.
He cast Reading Magic on himself and continued studying the mysticism classics. There was a thick stack of books beside him.
Everyone could initially get 4 times the points because the upper limit of the skill level was character level +3.
zhao xu was now a level 1 character, so he could level up his skills to level 4.
It was a good thing Antonya didnβt ask for too much. Otherwise, he really wouldnβt be able to go out on an adventure for the next one or two months with a level 4 workload.
in his previous life, the players were forced to not level up their knowledge and skills much because of the time required to read.
as zhao xu read through the books on mysticism, he couldnβt help but guess what he was thinking about legendary wizards.
If a legendary-mage required a knowledge (mysterious) skill, he would probably have to Max out this skill.
in other words, at level 21, he would have to have a level 24 knowledge (mysterious) skill level.
When he thought about this, Zhao Xu couldnβt help but feel sorry for Antonya.
the players on earth only had to endure three years of college entrance exams, but the wizards in arthur had to endure for their entire lives.
what I have today is what you will have tomorrow. You donβt have to look at me like that. Antonya said as she flipped through the book in her hands.
zhao xu was shocked. he had been looking at antonya the entire time, but he didnβt see her raise her head at all.
didnβt they say that the players βtrue thoughts would not be detected for a year?
Zhao Xu quickly raised his head and looked around the entire classroom to see if there were any floating objects around.
he had heard that mages had a method similar to drone detection, but he really did not know the details of the spell.
Could it be that Antonya had set up something around them?
donβt embarrass the mages. Take a good look at that βintroduction to common spellsβ in your backpack.
β thereβs a level two arcane spell called βcrab turtle visionβ, which can give people the global vision. β Antonya said in a bad mood.
so it was like this.
Zhao Xu finally understood that Antonya had basically obtained a vision that had no blind spots, similar to the eye roll.
therefore, she didnβt need to look up to know what she was doing.
zhao xu thought to himself that he wasnβt afraid that someone would walk up to him from behind and scare him off with this kind of magic equipment, but it definitely wouldnβt be easy to get used to in the beginning.
but antonya was only here to read a book, and she already had this kind of buff on her. she really was being cautious.
βmentor, i just need to level up 10 knowledge skills by 1, right? thereβs no rush for the rest of the levels, right?β
After casting read magic four times in a row, Zhao Xu finally felt that his mystical knowledge skill was starting to show some signs of being useful.
he was like an athlete who had only run a few steps. with the speed and the length of the track, it was easy to estimate the time.
β thereβs no rush, but the advancement requires knowledge and skills. β antonya said calmly, but she didnβt stop flipping the pages.
βthe one iβm about to advance to?β fπeπππππoΡ΅ππΉ.c૦π
βwhat do you think?β
βThen, what level do you need to be, mentor?β zhao xu suddenly had a bad feeling.
β knowledge (mysterious) is definitely a level 8 skill. otherwise, you would have been able to advance before you reached level 5. β
zhao xu couldnβt help but gasp.
He was completely sure that Antonya was doing this on purpose.
a skill level could only be three levels higher than the character level, which meant that when he was a level 5 wizard, his knowledge (mystery) skill had to be raised to level 8.
Now, the 4x skill points provided by Level 1 were 40 points. He could not level up to Level 2 until he used them all.
He already had a lot of skill points left when he was Level 5, so he could forget about maxing out all the knowledge (mysterious) skills in one go.
this would delay his advancement to an advanced class by a few levels.
therefore, he had to max out his knowledge (mystical) skill to level 4 when he reached level 1.
However, every time a skill leveled up, the reading requirement would also increase.
Thinking about this, Zhao Xu couldnβt help but feel a headache coming on, mainly because he didnβt have that many read magic spells to cast.
He had the heart to study, but he had limited time to use the dictionary every day.
Not to mention that he was already a cultivator of both the divine and the arcane, which meant that he had double the spell slots of others.
βmentor, look at my current situation. i want to study hard, but i canβt do anything without the blessing of reading magic.β Zhao Xu asked Antonya for advice.
βwhy donβt i also set up a βreading magicβ?β zhao xu asked with anticipation.
βThatβs a good suggestion.β antonya agreed.
Zhao Xu was overjoyed when he heard this, but out of caution, he still asked, β mentor, do we need to change the environment for the permanency spell? There are too many people here.β
βEnvironment? Weβll talk about it when the time comes, how would we know now?β
βWhen the time comes?β
βHow are you going to master the level 5 spell βmagic everlastingβ if youβre not at level 9?β antonya continued to flip through the page in her hand.
Zhao Xu was stunned for a moment and he thought back to what he had just said.
He immediately realized that Antonya was asking him to put it on himself.
Zhao Xu was left speechless.
If he could cast magic everlasting on his own, he wouldnβt have needed to ask Antonya for help.
at this moment, antonya was reading her book in peace, as if she was immune to fire and water, so she probably wouldnβt let him cheat.
Otherwise, Zhao Xu would just take advantage of the situation and continue begging for other permanency spells.
βhowever, if you really have such an ambition, i can satisfy you.β antonya suddenly said.
βJoining a large organization will give you the treatment of a large organization. after all, you players donβt need to eat or drink, so that ain stone is a little useless to you.β
Zhao Xuβs expression changed and he raised his eyebrows slightly.
β mentor, can i get a reward that can help me solve the problem of not having enough reading magic? β
βThis works too. If not, there was a condition. If you canβt meet the conditions, Iβll take it back.β
Using the ownership of an enen stone worth 4000 gold pieces in exchange for an unknown reward of unlimited lease period, with a request.
however, it wasnβt a big problem. he didnβt dare to sell the original ain stones anyway.
The only requirement was to satisfy the other partyβs premise.
βwhat are the conditions?β zhao xu asked.
knowledge (mystical), knowledge (religion), Arcana, and concentration, I want you to maim all four of them.
βsure.β
Zhao Xu replied decisively.
no matter how difficult the request was, he would agree to it first and then reply to it when there was a problem.
an orange, prismatic rock flew straight towards zhao xu.
zhao xu took it with his bare hands and carefully examined the ain stone in his hand. he had never heard of this version of the stone before. could it solve the problem of him not having enough time to read magic?
As Zhao Xu thought about this, he took out the original transparent ain stone from his bento bag and returned it to Antonya.
βYou can take it. Just hold it for a while, then release it. β
Zhao Xu nodded his head as he followed Antonyaβs instructions.
The orange prism that had been lying in Zhao Xuβs palm suddenly flew up into the air.
it was as if it was being pulled by gravity as it flew towards the top of his head.
Just as the Ain stone was about to fly away from his head like a meteor, the mysterious force continued to pull it back.
after going back and forth a few times, the ain stone finally stabilized its trajectory and continued to circle above his head.
βThe effect of this ain stone is to increase the level of a level 1 spellcaster.β
β in the future, youβll need 20 minutes to read magic, and 40 minutes to reach supreme magic. thatβs enough. β
