377 a gift before departure
as zhao xu walked towards antonya’s office at the obelisk, the shocking “history” that vivian had just described kept reverberating in his mind.

It mysteriously appeared and then mysteriously disappeared.

it was so fleeting that it was beyond his imagination, especially the fact that ernest might not have died, it shocked him even more.

If the other party appeared, it meant that the current power structure would change. even sisylvana’s position as the number one in the magical domain would no longer be secure.

The most obvious effect would be that the divine Domain of magic and the power of divinity would be greatly suppressed when facing Ernest.

but when zhao xu saw antonya, he realized that she was in the guest room outside and was in a discussion with four or five other male wizards.

A few of them had a serious expression on their faces, and their voices were raised a few decibels.

“just because others keep calling you young miss, do you really think you’re a young miss and can do whatever you want?”

“that secret inheritance belongs to our family. you’re just a guardian, and you’re only in charge of looking after it temporarily.”

The middle-aged wizard leading the group was so angry that his veins were popping out, and he was scolding Antonya in a rather stern voice.

As he spoke, the three or four people behind the middle-aged mage could not help but stand up.

The youngest of them had a pale face and thin limbs. It was unclear if he had been drained by alcohol, sex, or magic research. He coughed lightly and said, ” your new disciple is called zhongxia, right? someone in the family recognized him last time. He was wearing the ‘Star Cloak’ from the family’s Treasury.

“You once advised the younger generation of our families to wait for the right time to uncover the hidden contents of the lost family inheritance. but now, your actions clearly aren’t like that.”

After the sickly man finished speaking, his companions beside him were also stunned.

It could be said that Antonya, who had reached the legendary wizard level, had been the object of admiration for the younger generation of the family since she was young. There were many people who admired her just by hearing her voice.

And the term ” young miss ” was what some of the older members of the family called Antonya. as these people passed away, this name continued to be passed down, and it even became the general name for antonya among the younger generation of floating city.

but three or four months ago, miss antonya had taken in a player as her disciple.

These young people of the ITRE family realized that everything had changed. Antonya had started to miss the family meeting that they had been attending every month.

after all, their family had been able to remain in the top five of the hundred great mage families of mystra after the fall of their dynasty because of this kind of collective cohesion. how could they be so casual?

even a legendary-mage would not be able to do so. that was the original thought of the sick man.

As the elders of their families reminisced about the glory of the dynasty, they had always looked forward to being able to restore the former glory in their generation.

they also knew and understood the reason why they had not used the family’s treasure house.

who would have thought that the other party would give the extremely precious ” cloak of stars ” to a novice wizard without informing his family?

He completely disregarded the clan.

did he really think that the secret inheritance was her private property?

When Antonya noticed Zhao Xu’s arrival, she waved her hand impatiently and signaled for those people to leave.

although the five members of the itre family had a lot to say, they knew the ” significance ” of the obelisk itself, especially since the other party was a legendary-mage, even if they could only control him in the name of their family.

so when he saw antonya’s hand signal for everyone to leave, the middle-aged man in the lead snorted coldly and turned around to leave.

It was only after they were far away that the fat mage behind muttered, ” the elders of the family had flipped through the genealogy. She is not the sister of our founding King. How can she be considered a Princess? ”

Zhao Xu didn’t expect that before he left, he would be able to witness the conflict between Antonya and the younger generation of the ITRE family.

“Mentor?” Even though Zhao Xu knew that he didn’t have to worry about her, he still couldn’t help but show some concern for her.

Antonya shook her head. I’m sorry to have made you laugh.

When Zhao Xu heard the tone of the other party’s voice, he immediately felt relieved.

antonya’s tone didn’t sound like she cared about what had just happened at all.

if zhao xu hadn’t heard what the sacred succubus vivienne had revealed to him, he would have thought that antonya was really as she had said.

but now, it seemed that it was not what the young generation of the ittell family had described.

“Teacher, what is the relationship between you and the ITRE family?”

Zhao Xu already knew that the title ” young miss ” came from the fact that she was the successor of the arcane King, Ernest.

No one in the upper echelons of the floating city had denied this identity.

it wasn’t because she was once a princess of the itre dynasty.

Speaking of which, even though the ITRE dynasty was a starving camel that was still bigger than a horse, it wasn’t enough for Reyan and the others to address her as ” young lady “.

Even the first and last generation of princesses did not have enough status.

especially since the treasury of the inheritance of the itre dynasty was the “fake treasury” of ernest’s first secret treasures.

the problem was, how did this “fake vault” become the possession of the itre family, and why did the young people of the family care so much about it?

At this moment, Zhao Xu also vaguely remembered that when he first called Antonya, her last name was ITRE.

at this moment, antonya was a little annoyed. ” “I’ll go back and see how many people will jump out to oppose me this time. It’ll be a good time to drive away these ingrates at once.”

ungrateful wolf?

zhao xu immediately thought of this term, and he started to come up with a similar guess.

“zhongxia, guess who first used the name ittell?” Antonya asked with a smile.

Antonya’s fame could be traced back to tens of thousands of years ago, and the ITRE dynasty was only a thousand years ago.

“It’s definitely you, mentor.” Zhao Xu answered without even thinking.

“that’s why.”

antonya bit her lip lightly. ” those bunch of noobs. they should have known that the glory of this surname comes from me. ”

“The founder of the ITRE family was once Ernest’s coachman. back then, he was nameless, and after finding the name jouyi, ernest said that he still lacked a family name, so he gave the coachman my family name. that way, he could still be considered a family member.”

” the coachman, jouyi, returned to his homeland thousands of years later. he then realized that his childhood sweetheart had been waiting for him in his hometown after he went out to make a living. she had not married until she died of old age. ”

that’s why Qiao Yi tried his best to resurrect his childhood friend, who died of old age. Then, he started a family with him and established a dynasty to leave behind a Foundation.

At this moment, Antonya stood up and looked at the snow outside the window.

at first, I was the one who lent the secret inheritance, the fake vault, to Joey. After the dynasty fell, Joey naturally returned the vault to me in its original state. He just didn’t tell the ITRE family about this.

when he heard this, zhao xu couldn’t help but open his mouth slightly.

didn’t this mean that the thoughts of those young people just now were all just their imaginations?

from the very beginning, this treasure trove had no subordinate relationship with jouyi, the founder of the dynasty.

that lost inheritance, the itre family could only be lost.

zhao xu couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh. those young people who had provoked antonya just now had probably already divided up everything that was in that lost treasure vault by themselves.

“teacher, so you’re fishing?” Zhao Xu made a guess.

Even though these people had been pointing their fingers at him, Zhao Xu didn’t really care.

Since he now knew that these members of the wizard family named ITRE had nothing to do with Antonya in the first place, he didn’t really care about them.

However, this was the first time Zhao Xu had personally experienced just how powerful Ernest had been.

just by being his coachman, he could live forever, and even become the founding emperor of a dynasty thousands of years later on a whim.

“Fishing?”

Antonya glanced at Zhao Xu. how naive.

“I already have the power to overturn the entire chessboard, so I don’t care how the chess pieces are distributed. On the contrary, I find their provocation very interesting.”

they can’t even guess when I will appear, which means that they have no way to get in touch with the oldest tomb keepers of the ittell family. They are just small fish who think they represent the new generation.

“besides, zhongxia, don’t you think you’re a little too safe in this floating city? wouldn’t a few more people looking for trouble with you be able to promote your progress?”

zhao xu didn’t expect antonya to have such thoughts.

if it wasn’t for the fact that there was a sacred warrior succubus standing quietly next to him, focused on guarding the door, zhao xu would have started complaining to antonya.

Originally, he had come here to try and get some more magic items, but who would have thought that he would be overcharged?

“Instructor, was this how you were trained?” zhao xu asked, trying to make himself feel better.

” how could that be? my teacher raised me well back then. ” Antonya pouted slightly, looking very pleased with herself.

she walked back to her spacious desk and pulled out a thick stack of parchment.

take this. This is your appointment document, as well as your future route and some key points.

Zhao Xu took it.

With the Association paying him the “+6 headband of intellect” in advance as his salary, if he did not do a good job, the Association would definitely confiscate his work.

zhao xu also knew that he had to personally walk the last part of the journey. the association also wanted to let some nerdy mages understand the suffering of the mortal world.

“There’s a letter inside that you need to deliver to the leader of the northern Alliance. the luca city you’ve teleported to is located in the ‘xiluo duchy’, which is adjacent to the northern alliance. currently, there are conflicts between the two sides, and there are a lot of refugees on the border, so you’ll have to be careful when you return.”

antonya told zhao xu that in another ten days or half a month, she would personally go to starfall town to visit zhao xu again and see how he was doing at work.

“Then, teacher, if there’s nothing else, I’ll leave immediately?” zhao xu asked.

“well, actually, you still have a reward that you haven’t settled yet. it’s now in my hands, and i’ll do it with you.”

Reward?

zhao xu’s heart couldn’t help but start beating faster when he heard antonya call it a reward.

At this moment, Antonya smiled and looked at Zhao Xu.

“didn’t you take the initiative to help the church deal with the succubus priest?” as antonya spoke, she also glanced at the sacred succubus warrior who was also standing in the corner.

however, vivian’s expression remained the same.

you were able to disregard life and death back then, so the reward I gave you is to allow you to avoid a life and death accident.

“this is a spell that is permanently waiting to be triggered. can you guess?” antonya asked.

Zhao Xu couldn’t help but widen his eyes. contract series? ”

heh, you’re quite smart. It seems like you didn’t enter the scroll space for nothing.

the 8th-circle divine spell ‘death contract,’ ” Antonya admitted. the cost of casting it is 1000 gold coins of diamonds.

after antonya finished explaining the spell, zhao xu was able to react even faster.

the contract series of spells were one of the few spells that exceeded the limit of the original ” minute ” and ” wheel “-level spells. they would directly last forever until they were triggered.

It could be said that once used, one would benefit for life. It was the real ” wake up buff.

The only function of the spell was to automatically cast a ‘complete resurrection spell’ on him when he died.

That was why the temple had rewarded Zhao Xu with an extra life.

However, this death contract was naturally not as good as a Lifestone.

Losing two vitality points was the price of having the ‘death contract’ spell.

you can choose if you want to accept this reward. at this moment, antonya was smiling as she looked at zhao xu.

But Zhao Xu didn’t even think about it. of course I want it. It’d be a waste not to take it.

with his 14 points of constitution, he could still afford to lose 2 points.

When she heard Zhao Xu say this, Antonya immediately snapped her fingers and started casting a spell.

As wave after wave of warm energy seeped into his body, Zhao Xu’s stats window popped up.

[ adventurer zhongxia, you’ve been hit by Antonya’s level 8 death contract, Level 7 contract recovery, and Level 5 contract of bravery. ]

the first spell wasn’t too bad, but the next two spells were a little out of zhao xu’s expectations.

” you’re going to the war-torn land this time. although you have the paladin to protect you, i’ll still give you two more guarantees. it’s only a one-time thing anyway. ” antonya’s tone was calm.

for the eighth-circle death contract, directly triggering the ninth-circle complete resurrection spell could be said to be completely beyond the scope of the content.

The ” recovery contract ” would be activated when he suffered more than ten negative states such as attribute damage or poisoning, and the negative effects would be removed on the spot.

This meant that Zhao Xu now had a chance to automatically cancel out the negative status effects.

As for the ‘bravery contract’, it would be activated when his HP was less than half. He would gain 5HP recovery for every level, damage reduction of 5/magic, and immunity, which would increase his Tier 4 luck.

at this moment, antonya walked over gently and put her hand on zhao xu’s shoulder for the first time. ” all the best, zhongxia. if you can find the secret of the underground of fallen star lake, i can grant you one wish. ”
