The Truth of Magic

Chapter 144



144 Chapter 143-magical pet

after zhao xu came out, he said goodbye to wang ningwei and asvich. they even exchanged contact information on qq in real life.

Otherwise, given the floating city’s size, it was possible that they would not meet again for at least a month after this separation.

After Zhao Xu reported to Antonya and listened to what she had to say, he went offline.

When Zhao Xu took off his VR headset, he saw Zhang Qi packing his backpack next to him and stuffing some food and drinks into it.

the class was planning to go hiking at the dafu mountain tomorrow. zhao xu had told zhang qi yesterday to keep an eye on the most active girl, cui lu.

As a result, Zhang Qi looked at him as if he was having an affair.

but in the end, when zhao xu looked so calm, zhang qi still nodded his head obediently to show that he understood.

after zhao xu got down from the top bunk, he turned on his laptop and scanned through the hot topics on the forum that day.

However, most of them were still the players ‘daily 101 ways of dying.

other than that, a few other players ‘analysis posts were also being pushed to the top.

One of the most popular articles was an apprentice mage player’s analysis of the magic in it.

the player had spent a lot of effort in the post, and had even deliberately copied several spell models.

then, the host began to analyze the structure of these similar spells and discussed the key points in the structure. at the same time, he also related the specific contents of the spells.

everyone was confused by the whole article, but they still understood the conclusion of the post owner at the end-the model structure and the specific spell effect corresponded.

acid sputtering and freezing ray both had a similar long-range contact structure.

However, the original poster analyzed why the former was a curse spell and the latter was an evocation spell from different points.

These were the most basic skills for Wizards in Arthur, but at least some wizard players began to mention them in the forum.

Zhao Xu nodded silently as he watched. There were finally some players who were starting to notice how amazing Arthur’s spells were.

according to the thread owner’s description, from the moment he entered the game, he had been studying the contents of those spells. he had given up on all kinds of wizard specialties and practice of summoning magic pets.

he didn’t even learn level 1 spells. instead, he focused on the 19 free level 0 spells and spent more than a month before this post was born.

zhao xu scrolled down and scanned through the replies.

it was a pity that most of the replies were in the three categories of the op, arthur, and the mage.

There were very few who analyzed the thread based on the main topic.

zhao xu thought about it for a while and decided to give the original poster some simple guidance on what to do next. at the same time, he also advised the original poster to quickly start on the path of a wizard.

even though zhao xu hadn’t gone down the path of research, after seeing those hundreds of level 1 spells, his knowledge and experience was far beyond that of any other normal player.

After replying to the post, Zhao Xu deleted all the friend requests from his forum account and then logged into the QQ group that he hadn’t seen in a long time.

zhao xu immediately noticed that someone had sent him a friend request on his qq. it was from wang ningwei.

Zhao Xu’s QQ account only allowed him to add a few of his friends in class. If it wasn’t for the fact that he was in a QQ group, most people wouldn’t even bother logging in.

Zhao Xu immediately accepted the verification.

Zhao Xu really didn’t have the heart to reject a friend request from a future top-tier player or even a Big Shot.

Moreover, this was not some cultivation world. There was no such thing as devouring one’s fate just by killing the other party.

Wang Ningwei had been acknowledged by the floating city’s big shots and could even obtain the secret inheritance of the ITRE dynasty. This kind of hidden ability definitely had a lot of inside information that he didn’t know about.

Even Antonya had only allowed him to get in touch with Wang Ningwei in advance.

“mr. zhongxia?” Wang Ningwei asked.

Zhao Xu just tapped on the keyboard and said,”yeah.”

“then let’s form a group?” wang ningwei’s profile picture on qq was her.

zhao xu didn’t really mind this.

in the beginning, zhao xu didn’t hide his identity from fengye and the others because he was pretending to be weak.

it was just that people tended to be close to people who were close to them.

When the gap was pulled to a certain extent, it was easy to fall into one-sided flattery and worship.

Zhao Xu was already past the age where he needed to be flattered.

at this moment, wang ningwei had already sent him a group invitation. zhao xu looked at the group id 191645033 and silently accepted it.

Ashvich chuckled,”the child of the realm has joined the group?”

ning wei,”aiyaya, don’t say that. zhongxia leveled up with his own strength.”

Zhongxia,”I’m lucky, but I have no choice.”

zhao xu laughed as he replied.

ashvich: (^)=

[zhongxia: how did you guys get to level 2?]

ning wei, me? At that time, in an underground square, the magic bullets I released were countered by someone else, and I successfully leveled up.

ashvich:

ning wei asked,”what’s wrong?”

[ asvich: novice mages will only go to the underground square in the first few days to train their spell identification and spellcasting. ] which means you?

Ning Wei replied,”hehe, I did become a level 1 wizard just two days ago.”

Ashvich thought,”you’ve used up all your skill points?”

Ning Wei replied,”yeah, I used up all the skill points I got from being human and intelligence before I became a mage.” After leveling up, he only had 8 skill points. After reading a few books, he converted them into knowledge levels.

Ashvich: ” Oh, then your progress is about the same as mine. You don’t even have skill points to use for studying. You don’t feel any sense of accomplishment at all.

Asvich: ” as for me leveling up, I was reading at night and somehow leveled up. The wind was quite strong that night.

ning wei asked,”then, mr. zhongxia, what was your first level up like?”

As he looked at his recovery, Zhao Xu couldn’t help but think back to how many days it had taken him to use up all his skill points.

Suddenly, he felt that he was not worthy of the title of “child of the plane.

But when he saw Wang Ningwei’s question, Zhao Xu quickly replied.

[zhongxia: the first time was in the mine. I was suppressed by the enemy and decided to fight to the death. Then, I inexplicably leveled up.]

at this time, the three people sitting in front of their computers were also looking at their respective replies with deep thoughts.

none of them were the typical type of monsters that would level up only after a certain amount of experience was accumulated.

in fact, it was so casual that it seemed like he had broken through after accumulating his realm to a certain extent.

ashvich: “then change the group name?” The name floating city was too ugly.

ning wei,”then what should i change it to?”

[asvich: the strongest female mage trio.]

Zhongxia protested.

“asvich: objection overruled.”

Zhongxia,”I’m protesting the name” girl.””

“Asvich: I don’t mind you using this group name.”

zhongxia,”i just don’t think you’re a girl.”

Ning Wei:

Ashvich: “do you believe that I can follow the internet?”

ning wei asked,”if everyone’s in the floating city, we probably haven’t used a lifestone, right?”

Asvich, 5.

zhongxia, 5.

Ning Wei replied,”me too.”

Zhao Xu looked at everyone’s numbers and sighed to himself that there was indeed a huge difference between the two extremes.

Currently, the most popular candidates among the players who could advance to Level 2 wizard only had three Lifestones at most.

this was the cruel point of being a mage in the early stages. most players who were able to successfully advance to a mage in the first month of the game rarely managed to last all the way to the later stages of the game.

Basically, in less than 11 months, 99% of the wizard players who transmigrated to Arthur were newly registered characters.

Those who didn’t take the path of pure research would find it difficult to advance by staying in the Academy.

at this moment, zhao xu received a call from the food delivery. the food delivery would arrive at the dormitory every day at a fixed time, and zhao xu would go offline to pick it up from the building management.

Zhao Xu remembered that Antonya had specifically told him to come online tonight, so he quickly told the two girls that he had something to do and then went offline.

———————-

on the seventh floor of the obelisk.

After Zhao Xu finished eating, he didn’t even take a single step before logging back into the game.

When Zhao Xu came back from the test today, Antonya found out that he had become a level 3 wizard, so she was a little surprised.

Even though it was just a little.

but she also immediately put zhao xu’s level 3 character specialty on her agenda.

Zhao Xu’s current leveling speed was still a little faster than she had expected, so the specialty that was usually placed at the back had to be placed at the front.

this was to prevent zhao xu from accidentally leveling up to level 4 the next time. if that happened, the spirituality of his level 3 talent would expire and become useless.

All characters, at Level 1 and the following levels that were multiple of 3, could obtain character specialties.

if he missed out on this level 3 talent, zhao xu would have to wait for another level 6 talent.

“Mentor, what specialty is it that I have to come back at night?” zhao xu asked curiously.

at this moment, antonya had deliberately changed into a wine-red mage robe with golden brocades. it was the same one that zhao xu had seen sisylvana wearing before she had become a god when he had sat on the arcane throne.

by now, he already knew what this robe was. logically speaking, it shouldn’t have given antonya that much of an effect, but this robe was very famous, so even the big shots liked to wear it.

“this is a specialty that can give you a lot of feedback. for example, skill points, upgraded spirituality, spell slots, and the ability to cast level-zero cantrips.” Antonya said, ” didn’t you sacrifice your magic pet’s ability before? ”

Zhao Xu nodded after he heard this.

“now, i’ll give you another companion-an item companion.” Antonya said.

Zhao Xu looked like he was deep in thought.

the topic of magic pets was one of the daily topics on the forum for mages.

most magic pets came from ordinary animals, but they were summoned through a ritual, so they changed from ordinary animals to magic beasts.

in general, the various attributes of magical pets were not much different from ordinary animals.

In order for a magic pet to be stronger than a mage, it was generally necessary to add enough spells to the configuration.

But even so, the choice of companions and how to use them had become a hot topic on the forum. This was because a magic pet could give a wizard certain abilities, from the ‘vigilance’ specialty to spell sharing.

“An item familiar specialty is when you can establish a long-term connection with an item and slowly give it the ability of a living familiar.”

Zhao Xu nodded when he heard this. so, are we going to do the ceremony next? ”

Mages needed to go through a magic ritual to summon their companions.

“No, the prerequisite for an item companion is that the other party must be a permanent magic item. so you have to pick a magic item first.”

Antonya looked at Zhao Xu with a mysterious smile on her face. so, we need to go to a place first to pick out what you want to make your magic pet.

“where?” zhao xu could guess where they were going, but he still found it hard to believe.
