126 chapter 125/passageway

When Zhao Xu walked out of the door, he saw an old man waiting for him.

It was no wonder that most of the people in the floating city were old people, mainly because the strength of mages was linked to the accumulation of time.

most mages used the method of extending their lifespans, not the method of rejuvenation, which was costly and risky, let alone the method of eternal life by advancing to become another race.

“Do you have any advice?” there was not a single ring on his robe. usually, those who wore this were either apprentices or legendary-mages.

of course, there was another kind, which was that they were too lazy to wear it and didn’t need to use it to show off their status, such as reyan’s uninhibited style.

” mr. zhongxia, this is your prize for being the first to complete the assessment. ” the old man’s hunched body stood in a corner, his face full of the merciless scars of time.

But when he turned around to face Zhao Xu, he opened his bright eyes and his entire body exuded the invisible aura of a superior.

zhao xu, who had protected the lord of the north in his previous life, almost had the illusion that he was standing in front of a king.

however, no matter how he thought about it, it wasn’t realistic. he could still recognize all of arthur’s kings.

At this moment, the old man’s wrinkled hand handed over a similar ‘automatic quick-writing quill’.

“Didn’t I already get one?” Zhao Xu asked curiously.

no, Mr. Zhongxia, this one is your reward for winning against all the apprentices in the audience. The one miss Antonya gave you is a reward she gave you alone. The two don’t conflict with each other.

Zhao Xu wasn’t going to reject anything that was given to him by someone else. After all, he would definitely bring it to Antonya for her to examine before he dared to use it.

After Zhao Xu accepted it, he realized that the old man was still standing there and not moving.

he didn’t hesitate or ask any more questions, and walked straight to the front of the corridor.

Zhao Xu didn’t notice that the old man behind him had been bowing slightly to show his respect.

————————————————————————–

after zhao xu went back, he followed antonya’s instructions and moved his luggage to the obelisk.

this was also a tradition of the floating city. once an apprentice mage became an official mage, their dormitory was only renewed for three months.

it wasn’t that the mages had nowhere to go without a dormitory, it was just a way to hint the novice mages to quickly find a new home.

zhao xu’s next item was naturally the final scroll, so his dormitory had been reassigned to the sixth floor of the obelisk.

basically, the space of the entire obelisk had been modified, so the situation of not having enough people to live in had never appeared in the dictionary of mages.

Zhao Xu didn’t have a lot of luggage in his dormitory. He was mainly packing up some magic books that he hadn’t brought with him when he went out on an adventure and putting them in his bag.

while he was tidying up, he also recalled what happened when he was copying the scrolls.

at first, he thought that this ability would be particularly difficult, but when he really started writing, he found that the power of the runes automatically flowed from his mind to the scroll.

It was as if he had copied it thousands of times.

Zhao Xu felt an unusual sense of familiarity with the spell, and he could only attribute it to the fact that he was already a level 1 wizard and had mastered the scribe Scroll specialty, which was why he had such a special effect.

After all, most of the other novice mages would first master the copy scroll and summon a magic pet, then copy enough spells before officially awakening as a mage.

at this moment, zhao xu didn’t know how he had performed at the time. he had completely shocked the other people who had started learning specializations at the same pace as him.

after zhao xu had finished moving everything, he finally had the time to catch his breath.

He then placed the quill that Antonya had given him and the old man’s Quill on the table.

They looked almost exactly the same, and there were no special marks.

fortunately, that was the case. otherwise, wouldn’t it mean that both of them were antonya’s products?

according to antonya’s personality, she didn’t like people who didn’t know her to touch her things.

didn’t that mean that antonya had already been certain that he would be the first to successfully copy the scroll?

If that was the case, then the divination technique was simply too overbearing.

After a while, Antonya also arrived at his new dormitory.

she already knew what zhao xu had just gone through, but she didn’t praise him too much. instead, she said to him, ” let’s go. I’ll take you to see why archivers are so powerful.

When Zhao Xu heard this, he immediately made the connection.

He envied the archivist profession and felt that it was not inferior to mages, mainly because of the archivist braggers on the forums in his previous life.

At that time, being an archivist was no longer a secret, and many people knew that there was such a divine spellcaster profession.

He was like a wizard’s mirror. The similarity was that he also needed to study spells and copy them into the Prayer Book. The strength of the spells was determined by intelligence.

So in the future, Zhao Xu’s main focus would be on becoming an archivist, and he wouldn’t have to worry so much about splitting up his attributes. He just had to focus on intelligence.

the only difference between an archivist and a mage was that they cast divine spells, not arcane spells.

spells were mainly divided into two categories, arcane spells and divine spells.

There were also some spells, both arcane and divine, such as detection magic, which could be cast by mages and priests.

for example, the wizard armor that zhao xu liked to use was a natural arcane spell, so priests couldn’t use it.

If the scroll was so simple, it wouldn’t have been blown up by the scrolls.

The main thing was class abilities. Wizards only had scribe scrolls and summoned companions at Level 1. After that, they could only obtain a metamagic ability every five levels.

Among archivist level 1-20, only two levels were empty and did not have the ability to improve. The others were occupied by various improved abilities.

as for what the archivist’s abilities were, the forum was very mysterious and did not reveal much.

However, everyone was looking forward to it.

At this moment, Zhao Xu and Antonya sat down in the automatic elevator of the obelisk and walked down on this alchemy device that was powered by magic.

antonya relied on the fact that her potential points allowed her to recover infinitely, so basically, she would choose to teleport over any route that was more than 300 meters away.

if he was 20 meters away, he would be able to teleport over in a flash. zhao xu now knew that his opponent had used advanced dimensional jump, which was a level 9 spell that could last for a long time, to teleport over.

it wasn’t the kind of random door spell that he had thought it was.

however, other than the top of the obelisk, the other parts of the obelisk were blocked from teleportation. so antonya had no choice but to obediently walk with zhao xu.

“Mentor, are you going to practice dark knowledge?” Zhao Xu asked.

although the abilities of scroll scholars in his previous life were very mysterious, the first ability, dark knowledge (combat), was still revealed by someone. it was said that it would increase attack power when facing monsters, which made warriors itch to have a teammate.

” the class abilities of archivist are all meaningless. the only terrifying secret at level 11 is that they can intimidate the enemy and still barely fight. ” as usual, antonya answered zhao xu’s child’s play questions.

zhao xu immediately understood what was going on.

in his previous life, the rumors on the forums were all wrong.

it wasn’t because of the class’s ability, but it couldn’t be because of the spell, right?

However, didn’t priests also have the same divine spell, and it was given by the gods, free of charge?

mages had to spend money to copy spells, and dossiers also had to pay for copying spells.

if it wasn’t for the fact that zhao xu could still manage to get on antonya’s good side, he would have to work as a waiter in the floating city and earn some money to copy the spell materials.

but antonya dragged zhao xu out of the room on the second floor. after taking a few turns, they reached the end of a corridor.

Zhao Xu looked at the dead end and wondered if there was a secret door.

however, antonya immediately chanted an incantation so quickly that it was almost as if she was humming.

a message instantly flashed across zhao xu’s stats window that he had failed to identify the spell.

he knew that antonya had instantly cast a spell, but he didn’t know what spell she had instantly cast.

“let’s go,” he said. antonya said.

zhao xu looked around, but he didn’t see antonya opening any secret doors.

then, antonya pulled on zhao xu’s sleeve and led him towards the wall in front of them.

Just as they were about to hit the wall, the wall seemed to be an illusion, and it did not stop them at all.

After a slight wave of dizziness, Zhao Xu found himself in a sealed room. There were no doors or windows at all, just like a box.

If it wasn’t for the light from the ceiling, he would probably have a psychological shadow.

“that was a level seven spell, the gate of phase. it can open a channel for us to pass through the wall and get here.” Antonya said.

zhao xu finally understood why this room didn’t have a door or a window.

In the case of blocking teleportation spells, a mage’s spell of the gate of phase was a one-time key to enter this place.

it was just a little extravagant.

zhao xu started to look around the room. there were 12 identical mirrors in total, and they looked like a clock that was placed on the 12-hour mark.

most of the mirrors were 1.2 meters tall and one meter wide. they were all covered with a dark curtain.

“what is this?” When Zhao Xu was choosing his third technique, he had seen this mirror in some of Antonya’s collection. It was just that it was too big, or else he would definitely be interested in it.

“this is the doppelganger mirror of my nemesis.”

if you pull open the curtain and look at the mirror, you will summon a clone that is the same as you. From equipment to abilities to spells, it will be the same as the original, and it will attack you with all its might.

“you’re joking, right?” zhao xu had already trained himself to be as calm as an ancient well, but now he was starting to get surprised.

a legendary-mage? was he really going to summon a legendary-mage?

“this type of mirror was made by the arcane king, ernest. it’s said that it was made using the principles of cloning, but the technique has long been lost. i’ve placed most of the remaining parts of the floating city here. there’s a way to crack this mirror, but it’s too dangerous, so i’ve placed it here to be recycled.” antonya explained.

Zhao Xu looked at the 12 mirrors and thought that they were even scarier than a horror movie.

Antonya would definitely be able to deal with any ghost that came out.

But if Antonya’s clone appeared, she would probably be able to defeat it, but he wouldn’t be able to survive the aftermath of the spell.

“Then what should we do?”

” one of the mirrors is from a tunnel. you just have to find it. ”

“Where does it lead to?” Zhao Xu turned around and looked at Antonya.

“The first scroll.”
