The Truth of Magic



328 chapter 327-logging into the game
zhao xu had already seen monsters charging at him countless times, so he wasn’t flustered at all.

Having come into contact with half-purgatory creatures before, he began to review their detailed data and various weaknesses in his mind.

At the same time, in front of Zhao Xu, in a dimension that no one else could see. the undead creature that zhao xu had ordered to control, the ” soul catcher, ” was already hovering in front of him and hiding in the spirit world.

just like the ghost that hid its traces, unless one had a ” truth-seeing art ” or was also a spirit world creature, one would not be able to see through it.

half-purgatory creatures were the same as ghosts, they were ‘templates’ that could improve their own mount.

Generally speaking, becoming a half-purgatory creature would give a lot of improvements, and the six major attributes would all be increased by 2 to 4 points.

for magic defense, there would be magic resistance and resistance to multiple elements. in terms of physical defense, it would strengthen tier 1 innate defense armor and receive damage reduction.

it could be said that his defense had received an extraordinary upgrade.

In terms of attack power, the half-purgatory creatures could also obtain the ” kindness destructions ” and different spell-like abilities as the life dice increased.

Therefore, when a monster became a half-purgatory creature, its challenge level would increase by 1-3 levels. The higher the life dice, the higher the level.

However, when Peter was just a few meters away from Zhao Xu, Zhao Xu had already raised the scepter in his hand and was ready to activate the ability that could be activated three times a day.

In an instant, the half-purgatory Peter suddenly kicked his legs in the opposite direction.

He forced himself to stop in front of Zhao Xu. His leg muscles, which had already become much thicker than a normal person’s, once again exerted force and he instantly rushed out of the window in front of him.

after his strength had increased by 4 points, even if peter was originally at the level of an ordinary person, he could now be considered strong and powerful.

instantly, the glass window that was specially nailed with a thin wooden board to prevent light from passing through was shattered on the spot. the frame of the window was completely distorted.

It also made Peter Rush out of a huge hole in an instant. Then, he tried to force his way out of the window.

“Slow.” At this moment, Zhao Xu cast his crowd control spell.

With the soul Catcher as his main attack, the spell that Zhao Xu was going to cast was more of a control-type spell.

Peter, who had been reduced to a half-purgatory creature, had already climbed over half of his huge body. When he was only left with his last two legs, he suddenly felt a slow and stagnant force coming from behind him.

it spread from the bottom of his feet to the top of his head.

The moment Peter got out of the window, he fell to the ground heavily. He was not used to the dissonance.

He was like a clock that had been slowed down.

The moment Peter climbed out of the window, he was going to continue to run forward and seize the opportunity.

when he heard the bell ring, he didn’t think much of it.

After seeing the two people who had entered, he instantly recognized that the one standing behind him was his classmate, Ellington. He was a weakling that he could easily tear apart.

It was just that the man standing in front of him gave him a huge invisible pressure.

It was a sense of urgency that threatened his life. It was this feeling that had made him give up on sitting on the arcane throne and awakening as a wizard.

Peter also decided to retreat immediately on the spot.

Although he wasn’t being controlled, he was in a more troublesome situation than being controlled.

At this moment, Peter stood up with much difficulty. He turned around and looked at Zhao Xu, who had already turned around and walked out the door. what did you do to me? ”

His voice was very rough, as if he had a piece of red-hot charcoal in his throat.

As soon as Peter’s voice fell, his whole body suddenly trembled, and he rolled diagonally forward without even looking back.

At this moment, a loud tearing sound came from the void. It was the soul Catcher that had suddenly appeared, reaching out with its pale bone claws.

the pale and deformed bone claws seemed weak, but their power was enough to peel the skin off an ordinary person.

“he’s running.” Ellington cried out in alarm.

At this time, Peter rolled to avoid the soul catcher’s attack and immediately continued to roll forward again, trying to open up a safe distance.

however, his entire body had already become extremely slow under the effects of zhao xu’s third-circle spell, slow.

Every time the Buddha moved, it was as if there was someone behind him. he was like a puppet trying to escape, but he was constantly being pulled back by invisible strings.

zhao xu’s expression remained calm even after seeing this.

the moment peter failed to resist the slow spell, the other party’s end was already doomed.

if magic resistance was not effective, then it would not be an injustice to die in the hands of a mage.

Unless Peter could use teleportation spells such as the portal, he would not be able to escape from the double attack of the soul Catcher and the slow spell.

this was because under the effect of slow, all actions involved, such as attacks, defense, and evasion, would be weakened by the tier 1 spell.

What was even more exaggerated was that on average, he could only perform a limited number of movements in each round, which was equivalent to at least half of the previous rounds.

Originally, an ordinary person could launch an attack after charging forward.

However, after suffering the debuff of slow, he had to stop after launching an attack and could not immediately follow up with another attack.

this was the powerful effect of the ‘control technique’.

For example, undead creatures were immune to many debuffs, while slow was still effective.

At this time, the half-purgatory creature Peter, who understood that he could not escape, also came back to his senses. He immediately changed his target, spread his wings, and sprinted toward Ellington.

Compared to the other monsters that had become low-intelligence, Peter’s intelligence had increased by 4 points. his thoughts were extremely clear, and he instantly understood that his former classmate, clinton, was his only chance to escape.

As long as he could draw everyone’s attention to Ellington, he could continue to force his way back and fly out of the manor.

With the mysterious maze in place, no one dared to fly in the air without permission because of the floating city. That would mean that they were doing something to the floating city.

even in a slow state, he could move less than half of the distance of others. the soul catcher behind him directly pounced on him and pressed him down. then, it launched its grappling ability to suppress peter so that he couldn’t move at all.

At this moment, Peter’s expression became even more ferocious, and the black and Scarlet scales on his body trembled.

“dark art.” He immediately activated this spell-like ability.

suddenly, darkness began to spread out, covering them.

“Ah, we can’t see it like this.” ellington said nervously.

“dark spells are useless in broad daylight. only deep dark spells are useful.” zhao xu explained.

sure enough, although it wasn’t noon, the light still instantly destroyed the second-circle spell-like ability, darkness, that peter had cast.

when zhao xu saw this, he knew that the situation had been settled.

since the other party had already thrown out the useless dark spell, everything had returned to zero.

“sir, i heard that this creature has many spell-like abilities. don’t you need to be careful?” Ellington asked.

Zhao Xu shook his head. the spell-like abilities that a half-purgatory creature gains will increase with the number of life dice that it has. for example, a half-purgatory creature with a life dice of one will have darkness. then, for every two life dice increase, you can get blasphemy, evil shadow strike, poison, plague, all the way to the seventh-circle ashen smoke destructive deity, but these are all ineffective against undead creatures.”

The spell-like abilities obtained by the half-purgatory creatures were extremely lethal when attacking kind humans.

however, when they encountered the soul catcher, an undead creature that had no life force and was also from the evil camp, the other party would lose all possibility of suffering.

At this moment, he handed over the inspector’s badge and instructed Ellington, ” go and find the patrol officers. Ask them to inform the members of Rose Cross to come over.

Then, Zhao Xu looked around the room in silence and thought about how Peter had just jumped out of the window and escaped, as well as how he had become a half-purgatory creature in this room.

——————–

“Yun-er, your delivery.” Qi Qi, who was Zheng xinyun’s dormitory mate and best friend, walked into the living room and handed her the package she had seen when she went upstairs.

Their dormitory had two rooms and one living room. Zheng xinyun had just finished lunch and was leaning on the sofa reading a book.

“Thank you, Qi Qi.” zheng xinyun received it happily and immediately picked up the paper cutter on the coffee table to open the package.

at this moment, qi qi was a little dumbfounded. ” no way. oh my god, yun ‘er, how did you change your personality? ”

This was because what she saw was a ‘brain helmet’ that was suitable for the game.

If the average person didn’t have such a need, they wouldn’t deliberately use that configuration. In addition to being heavier, it would also produce more heat.

“You’re playing games? which game do you want to play?” qi qi felt as if she had just seen a new world.

“arthur, just like you.” zheng xinyun did not seem to notice anything amiss. she happily sized up the gaming helmet that she had just received.

“Didn’t your upbringing tell you not to play games? why did you suddenly change? i tried to persuade you to enter the game before, but you didn’t listen to me, hmph.” Qi Qi immediately ridiculed.

Zheng xinyun stuck out her tongue at this moment, looking embarrassed.

then, she reminisced. ” i met a strange and interesting person before, and then i had this impulse. ”

As for the fact that the other party had given her a string of activation codes, Zheng xinyun felt that it was better for her to keep it a secret.

otherwise, qi qi would definitely find a partner for herself and then arrange a plot of love and write it in her ” youth memory story “.

“then you’ll have to do your homework first. this game is too hardcore. I’m only Level 1 now, so I can only rely on my class to help me level up.” Qi Qi looked troubled. have you chosen your profession? do you want me to guide you? ”

“Yes, I’ve thought it through.” Zheng xinyun’s expression was calm at this moment. Her gaze seemed to see through everything and landed on the note in her hand.

“Priest.”
