The Truth of Magic

Chapter 102



102 combat casting

tie shi’s near-death state marked the end of the battle, and the rest of the battle was basically a counterattack by the injured noah and his men.

The ambushing team that had lost its backbone was instantly crushed.

or rather, it started after zhao xu successfully killed tie shi and made many people in this area faint.

even the tough bandits could only choose to hide for a while at this moment.

after the entire harvest was done, everyone came over to congratulate zhao xu, especially noah, who couldn’t stop praising him.

Noah even decided on the spot that he would let Zhao Xu take tie Shi’s full-body armor as a trophy.

at that time, zhao xu’s gaze first swept over fengye, and fengye quickly waved his hands to show that he didn’t deserve it.

in reality, zhao xu was worried that if he had a full-body armor in the early stages of the maple leaf stage, he might be able to survive, but that might end up harming him in the end.

Zhao Xu didn’t say much when he saw that Fengye had rejected his offer. He just asked Noah to exchange the money for gold coins or other spellcasting items of equivalent value.

But when Noah put away the full-body armor, Zhao Xu was overjoyed when he saw Fengye.

he just realized that after this trip, not only him, but team maple had also gained a lot.

The Maple Leaf team would probably still gather the funds to buy the full body armor for him.

Compared to the poor undead creatures who couldn’t sell their materials even if they killed them, the enemy Warriors who had basic armor and weapons were like walking wallets.

Zhao Xu didn’t pay any attention to the outside world at all as he rode his summoned horse through the canyon.

That moment just now seemed extremely dangerous, and he had already reached the point of betting his life with the other party.

But in reality, the entire battle plan was going according to Zhao Xu’s plan.

it wasn’t that the two magic bullets he fired just happened to deal 10 points of damage and hit tie shi into a near-death state, but choosing to use the magic bullets to fight was zhao xu’s own bad decision.

Even though Zhao Xu had five revival stones, it was fine to bet his life on a high-level wizard, but it was a little too cheap to bet his life on a normal warrior.

zhao xu saw that when tie shi came towards him, he would cast the level 1 arcane spell, wizard’s armor, and then use the protection staff to cast a shield spell-this was-level 1 arcane spell that he hadn’t had the time to learn.

The Level 4 armor and the Level 4 shield gave Zhao Xu almost level 8 defense, which was already on par with tie Shi’s full-body armor.

With this level 8 defensive ability, even if Zhao Xu’s defensive ability was affected by his own weakness, it was still as high as level 18 (which was the basic level 10).

At that time, even if a civilian stabbed him with a gun, he would not be able to Dodge in time. There was a high probability that he would be blocked by the invisible force condensed by his magic!

this was also the embodiment of the power of a wizard spell. even if it was a low-level first-level spell, once stacked together, it would still have extraordinary power.

It was just that ordinary mages could only cast two or three 1st-level spells a day, so they couldn’t afford to do such a luxurious thing.

even though zhao xu had missed his first chance to cast a spell to increase his defense, he could still choose to use his defensive magic staff to cast a barrier that could protect him from living things at the cost of three energy points.

this level-six spell could open a shield with a radius of three meters and last for 10 minutes for every spellcaster’s level-which was a full 200 minutes. except for special creatures such as undead creatures, most other living creatures could not enter the shield.

even if tie shi had three heads and six arms, his charge would definitely be defeated.

but in the end, zhao xu gave up.

He should have listened to his own judgment and defended first before counterattacking.

however, at that moment, a line of text appeared on his information panel.

[ adventurer zhongxia is in the state of awakening the combat Casting talent. ]

Some of the specialties in Arthur were taught by others, while others were self-taught.

However, there was another type that was comprehended during battle.

In his previous life, when Zhao Xu was still a warrior, he had learned his power attack specialty from his dormmate, Zhang Qi.

As long as one had a specialty, they would be qualified to be taught. This was why Arthur had so many specialties.

later on, his other specialty,”cleave,” was comprehended by him on the battlefield when he was filled with despair.

that was why when players saw that their talents were in the state of awakening, they would be very excited and seize the opportunity to master that talent.

and when zhao xu saw the combat casting ability, he immediately chose to try and activate it.

This was because the combat Casting ability was a prerequisite ability for the advancement of the magic guard.

only by obtaining this specialty could he successfully take up this job advancement.

before he had left the floating city, antonya had given him a few tips on which specialties he could choose to learn first if he activated them.

one of them was the “combat casting.”

It was a specialty that could only be awakened and comprehended in battle, in injuries, and at the edge of life and death.

this was also the reason why antonya had never mentioned this specialty to him before. it was impossible to obtain it by just learning.

Zhao Xu smiled as he thought about this. He wasn’t in a hurry to master spell endurance. When he reached Level 5 as a wizard, he would still be able to get a metamagic ability through his wizard abilities. It wouldn’t be too late to spend it on spell endurance then.

now, the list of specialties on his character stats was finally organized.

[ talent (human): multi-talented spellcaster

[ specialty (Level 1): Combat Casting ]

[ specialty (flaw): Spell Mastery ]

[ specialty (flaw): bizarre foresight ]

Zhao Xu heaved a sigh of relief and turned his head to look at his potential points.

originally, when he reached level 2, he still had 5/5 of his potential points, but now, he only had 1/5 left. the potential points were also the reason why zhao xu and wizard leo were so confident that day.

Who knew that it would be used on the enemy today.

He spent one potential point to simulate the Maximize Spell specialty that he had not mastered. He then spent another three potential points to use-level 1 spell slot to cast the Maximize Spell magic bullet-which originally required-level 4 spell slot.

if anyone else had heard this, they would have shouted that it was a waste to kill a chicken.

potential points had a wide range of uses. from attack to skill checks to attributes, immunity, and even spellcaster level checks, one could obtain an advantage of 1d6 (1-6 points) by consuming potential points.

if zhao xu was hit by a crowd control spell and used up some potential points to resist it, he would be able to increase his chance of resisting it by 5% to 30%.

So this time, Zhao Xu had used up four of his health points in a row, which was equivalent to turning four life-saving opportunities into a single explosive attack.

However, he didn’t regret it at all. Being able to awaken the combat Casting specialty had already cleared the last obstacle for him to advance to the ” Magic guard “.

He lacked everything except for the favorability of Mystra.

Suddenly, the horse that Zhao Xu was riding on forcefully stopped in its tracks and lifted its front leg, almost causing Zhao Xu to fall off.

the huge shadow directly blocked the front!

Zhao Xu was just about to take out his magic staff when a familiar voice rang out.

The Dragon roared!
