The Truth of Magic

172 the powerful ring

the next day, zhao xu went back to the surface of mystra through the teleport portal in the floating city.

this was also the first time he had set foot on this land again after so many days.

for the new mages in the floating city, they often had to use the portal to travel between mystra and the floating city in order to complete their missions.

Because Zhao Xu’s pace on the floating city was very fast, Antonya basically had a lot of plans for him, so he had a completely different feeling from the other players and Wizards on the floating city who had nothing better to do.

Even though Antonya had already told Zhao Xu yesterday that the time backtrack talisman really wasn’t a godly item, and even though it was very difficult to make, it was still considered a Wondrous Item.

Only those that could reverse time in all planes could be considered divine weapons.

But Zhao Xu was still very cautious at the moment, and he obediently stuck the talisman close to his chest.

This thing could be considered a divine item that involved laws. With it, Zhao Xu didn’t have to worry about Wang Ningwei and the other girl suddenly getting into an accident and ending the quest.

This was also the reason why Antonya wanted to lend him this talisman.

and the golem goggles that zhao xu had just gotten the day before were now on his eyes, so he looked like a watch craftsman.

According to Antonya’s instructions, Zhao Xu had to go to a magical item Shop in the dream of the north wind. He had another magical item there.

But after Zhao Xu came out of the arcane gate, he stood on the main street and looked at the crowd in front of him. He was confused.

Zhao Xu realized that he actually didn’t really know the way to Mystra anymore.

as he thought about this, zhao xu took out the book that he had gotten from the start.

there were 225 liters of water in howard’s bag, which was equivalent to the space of ten barrels of water. basically, zhao xu could put anything he wanted in there.

At this moment, Zhao Xu lowered his head and looked at the location of the dream of the north wind on the complicated map.

As the capital of magic, Mystra had no lack of shops that sold all kinds of magical materials. Many mages would even go to the various branches of the central Street to find the mystical items they wanted.

Even legendary items were heard to have been bought in these unremarkable alleys.

zhao xu looked around for a few minutes and managed to find the general location of his target. the only thing was that it was a little remote.

But Zhao Xu didn’t think too much about it. He had been through many things before when he tried to find the clairvoyant, but the clairvoyant ended up dead.

now that he had stronger equipment, he had nothing to be afraid of if he were to encounter any unexpected situations.

“Zhongxia.” Suddenly, a cry of alarm could be heard.

Zhao Xu turned around in surprise and saw yoyo sitting in a carriage that was speeding past them. She stuck her head out and waved at him.

But the carriage was still moving forward at a high speed, and yoyo couldn’t get out of the carriage. She could only watch Zhao Xu silently as he walked into the alley.

zhao xu looked at yoyo and the memories of the past floated into his mind. he also waved back at her until the carriage disappeared from his sight.

Zhao Xu let out a sigh of relief when he thought about how yoyo had finally arrived at the base town of the goddess of magic. This meant that yoyo could continue on her path as a priest.

Previously, he had been worried that Youyou and the others would abandon the trip in anger after the experience of being killed.

Since even Youyou was so insistent, there was no need to talk about the others.

zhao xu walked through three or four alleys until he reached a very remote corner.

although it was said that the shops with many powerful magical items were usually hidden in unknown corners, it was not a big deal. even the paint on the wooden signboard of the magic items shop in front of him had almost fallen off.

No matter how one looked at it, it looked like a poor business management.

zhao xu touched the weapons he had on him and checked the spell slots in his mind before he walked in calmly.

Unlike the dilapidated storefront outside, the magic item Shop “dream of the north wind” had all kinds of magic materials on the shelves.

there were small ore balls to release the ‘mind-weakening spell’, crystal beads to cast the’ peeking magic eye’, and even iron powder to cast the ‘human shrinking spell’.

if it wasn’t for the fact that zhao xu had learned all sorts of level 1 and level 2 spells and had used most of the spells, he might not even have been able to recall a spell just by looking at a single material.

There was a fat middle-aged woman standing at the counter. She had a heavy headscarf wrapped around her head, and after she glanced at Zhao Xu, she went back to working on the accounts in her hands and asked, ” “who introduced you?”

Antonya. zhao xu said simply.

Suddenly, the calm-looking fat woman in the purple silk dress raised her head and looked deeply at Zhao Xu. since you were introduced by him, what’s your name? ”

zhongxia, Level 3 mage. Zhao Xu said.

yes, that’s you. Your things are here. at this time, the fat woman directly took out a bag of things from under the counter, untied it, and poured the contents of the bag on the counter.

It was a stack of goatskin papers and a very ordinary silver ring.

Zhao Xu walked over and gently picked up the silver ring in his hand.

“What is this?” Zhao Xu asked.

if he could avoid using detection spell, he would naturally try to save as many spell slots as possible.

The fat woman glanced at Zhao Xu’s Golem goggles and explained in a bad mood, ” “The ring of invisibility. Once you activate it, you’ll be able to enter stealth mode, and this is an improved version.”

Zhao Xu immediately picked up the ring and looked at it carefully. Then he put it on his finger.

He really didn’t have the courage to court death with the ring that he had picked up on the road, but the person in front of him was someone Antonya had arranged for him to get this ring from, so he could naturally be considered a reliable person.

Everyone could equip two rings, but any more than that would be useless.

after zhao xu put on the ring, he gently rubbed the surface of the ring and gave the activation order.

in an instant, his entire body and all his items slowly faded away. the light rays directly passed through his body and shone on the ground.

in the end, zhao xu’s entire body disappeared, as if he had never existed.

at this moment, zhao xu raised his already transparent hands and observed the effects of this spell.

He had demonstrated this spell in the final scroll space and in the lecture room. However, he still felt that this spell was amazing.

Even in the future, when Earth’s technology was changing with each passing day, this kind of stealth effect technology had not yet matured in its application.

“this ring is the latest product of the floating city.” the fat middle-aged woman said.

the invisibility ring that the mages produced in the past can only be activated for three minutes because the caster is only Level 3.

Zhao Xu nodded when he heard this. The duration of invisibility was one minute for every level of the spell. He was now a level 6 spellcaster, so he could maintain it for six minutes.

at this moment, the fat woman continued,”although the previous ring could be activated countless times in a day, it was still a ring.” However, he had to put down the work at hand every three minutes and restart it again, and the user feedback was not good. that’s why we’ve launched this new ‘invisibility ring’. it only needs to be activated once to remain invisible until you cancel the effect.”

when zhao xu heard this, he wasn’t too surprised.

this new type of ” invisibility ring ” would be activated once every three minutes, which was indeed a huge improvement. at the very least, he would have enough protection in his sleep.

When he was following the 20 mage players, he did not have to keep thinking about the ring activation.

It seemed like this was also the reason why Antonya had specifically asked him to come here to get this ring.

the only shortcoming of the level two spell, “invisibility,” was that it would reveal itself once an enemy made an attempt to attack.

Only the level four spell “advanced invisibility” could allow one to remain invisible even in an attack state.

however, invisibility was an illusionary effect, so it would be restrained by all kinds of truth skills.

This was also the embarrassment of the “invisible ring. it was an expensive 20000 gold coins. When the adventurer could afford it, most of the monsters they encountered would have some truth-knowing ability.

in fact, invisibility itself was not a very reliable ability. high-level adventurers, such as forest rangers, could see the direction, but it was difficult to locate.

This spell only made him invisible visually. Some of the footprints on the mud and the sound of walking couldn’t be covered.

however, this could not hide its function as a low-level killing weapon.

With this ring that could be activated indefinitely, even if Zhao Xu didn’t use the eternal wand for the fireball spell, he would still be able to kill all 20 of these new Wizards in the jungle.

alright, if you have nothing else to say, then go. Don’t delay my business. The route of those people and the information on the bandits are all on this stack of parchment. Take your time to read it. The fat woman in the shop said in a low voice as she continued to flip through her account book.

zhao xu didn’t think much of it. he canceled the invisibility effect and walked out of the door. then he lowered his head and started to flip through the parchment in his hand.

———————-

“stop looking, that kid will definitely not be with us anymore.” ashvich said to wang ningwei in a low voice.

“No, I’m just observing my companions.” wang ningwei smiled at asvich.

At this moment, a male mage also came over and eagerly asked, ” Ningwei, did you work hard? How about I rent a horse for you to ride on? ”

as for ashvich, he glared at the man in front of him like a fly and said, ” no need. we have the ‘summon mount’ spell. we’re just complaining that we don’t have any spell slots to use. ”

The man could only smile awkwardly. Although they were all from floating city, the spells they had learned were limited.

Seeing that Wang Ningwei wasn’t as kind as she usually was, the man lowered his head and walked back to the corner, making the people around him smile. Seeing this, the man looked at asvich in frustration.

ever since wang ningwei met asvich a few days ago, the two of them had been together all day long, even their online and offline times were synchronized.

This made it impossible for Wang Ningwei’s fans to get close to her.

Suddenly, another male wizard called “lightning fall” walked over with a resolute expression. Ningwei, do you have any thoughts on this mission? ”

Wang Ningwei was confused. which kind of lightning do you mean? ”

he’s asking you, ” asvich said unhappily. did you give him any hints? ” i explained. on the surface, we were killing bandits, but on the surface, it was the floating city’s selection process. there was even more to come. I can guarantee that the floating city has definitely sent people to keep an eye on us.”

after saying that, asvich scanned the entire courier station with her sharp eyes. ” maybe she’s hiding here and looking at us with a wicked smile. ”

Zhao Xu was standing in a corner, completely invisible. He was flipping through the book that he had borrowed from the legendary library: A journey to heroscia. hearing this, he couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart.

This girl was too sharp.
