The Truth of Magic - Chapter 664
Chapter 664
664 The real and fake Antonya
The anti-magic field forbade spells, spell-like spells, and supernatural abilities. It could be said that even powerful monsters would be greatly suppressed. The two key pillars of support were broken, and only the last ” special ability ” could be effective.
For example, the legendary ” Balor “, who was at the top of the Abyssal Demon list, could continue to use flame explosion and entanglement as special abilities. Many other spell-like abilities and supernatural abilities such as beheading sword, Flame Body, and truth would all be invalid.
In Arthur, there was a proper term to describe these creatures-high-level infantrymen.
And Zhao Xu’s nine sword moves were already a supernatural power, and he could even use Iron Heart strength to reverse reality.
In an instant, the entire situation on the battlefield was reversed.
As the spear was extended, it pierced straight into the deformed man, who had lost all magic protection because of the anti-magic field.
He immediately revealed a look of disbelief. His eyes widened as he stood there in a daze. His body twitched a few times and then became stiff.
But Zhao Xu didn’t even have the chance to stop.
And Zhao Xu didn’t feel happy or happy at all after completing this.
He silently took out the legendary Necromancer’s staff that he had not used for a long time.
Before losing Lux and returning, the energy of this staff was the same as the ” staff of power ” that the deceased chemist had just broken. Every time he used it, he would lose one shot.
That was why Zhao Xu had been saving it for a long time. He wasn’t as reckless as he had been before, and he would even throw out a soul binding spell whenever he didn’t like it to seal his title.
However, at this moment, even if the cost of one energy shot was tens of thousands, he should make this decision without hesitation.
Zhao Xu immediately raised his staff and pointed the black gemstone at the corpse in front of him.
If someone were to observe it, they would be able to see that there were a few small fish swimming around inside this black gemstone. These were the souls that Zhao Xu had once imprisoned.
Zhao Xu had a death contract spell on him at the moment. Even though his Constitution would automatically drop by 2 points when he cast the spell, it still gave him a level 9 spell, complete resurrection, that would automatically activate.
Therefore, it was hard to say if the mage on the other side still had some resurrection methods.
Just now, Zhao Xu had used the anti-magic field to suppress his opponent, so he had cut off his opponent’s instant life-lock spell and successfully stabbed his chest with his long spear.
At this moment, he was also relying on the anti-magic field to continue to play its role and suppress the other party’s various resurrection methods.
As long as he didn’t cancel this anti-magic field, no matter how powerful the other party was, unless he was disturbed by divine power, he would be dead and would never be able to turn the tables.
As the arcane energy within the legendary undead staff in Zhao Xu’s hand was activated, a skinny, pale spirit palm appeared out of thin air in front of the deformed man’s forehead. The bones and veins could be clearly seen.
It directly placed its hand on the other party’s head. The spirit body’s arm reached out and grabbed a tiny person from within. It was in a black-and-white soul state, and its facial features were empty without any details.
In a breath, the soul binding claw grabbed the soul tightly and returned it to the gem on the top of the staff of death.
In the next second, Zhao Xu put away the spear that was holding the corpse in place and curled his finger at the corpse.
Level 5 spell, telekinesis.
The moment Zhao Xu’s gaze fell on the corpse, he activated his power of concentration and the corpse immediately flew towards him.
In fact, after the death of the deformed body, the maggots that had been killed by the spell continued to crawl out. Even though they had not reached the final state of the giant, it was still disgusting.
But Zhao Xu didn’t panic when he saw the corpse getting closer and closer to him. He took out another spell scroll with a sinister pattern on it and started to chant the incantation.
Then, the entire scroll began to burn uncontrollably, as if it was a self-immolating talisman.
Zhao Xu pressed his body against the corpse that was already right in front of him.
6th-circle spell!
The dog demon feast!
The burning scroll in the distance suddenly produced a diamond that was used as a magic material. It turned the air into dust and scattered on the corpse.
This time, the corpse was instantly set ablaze with black and stinky flames.
As if it had been contaminated with gasoline, the entire body was reduced to nothing in less than two to three seconds.
The sigh and whisper of the person who copied the scroll also sounded in the void.
“Leave the world now.”
When the black flames and the remains of the corpse disappeared, not even ashes were left.
In theory.
The fifth-circle ‘dead resurrection’ required the complete body of the dead, and it could not be activated without a part of it.
The 7th circle’s ” resurrection ” spell required some remains, even ashes. Therefore, even if the dead were hit by dissociation, which was a spell that could completely turn them into ashes, as long as someone was there to sweep up the ashes, it could be used as a catalyst for this resurrection spell.
only the ninth-circle ” complete resurrection ” could cross over corpses and resurrect the souls that still existed by relying on the space-time connection.
And Zhao Xu’s ” canine demon feast ” didn’t even leave behind any ashes.
What was more terrifying was that this spell could make the dead unable to return in any way.
Even if miracle and wish were used to interfere, there was a 50% chance of failure. Once it failed, the corresponding creature could no longer be resurrected with mortal spells.
It could be said to cut off all possibilities.
“Not bad.”
At this moment, Antonya’s gentle and soft voice rang out.
At that moment, she was standing right in front of the shadow behind Zhao Xu.
every high-circle mage would be wary of an anti-magic field, so many of them have ways to deal with it. The most common one is teleportation instinct, which can force them out of the three-meter death distance.
when the other party is three meters away from you, you should first use the ‘elastic magic ball’ to lower the other party’s guard. Furthermore, the other party has also gone through a lot of trouble to break into your ‘spiritual wall’ and ‘anti-magic protection’. He will not easily leave again.
“This way, the moment you reveal your intention to open the ‘anti-magic field’, the other party will lose the opportunity to respond because he has to break through the elastic magic ball first, and he will be directly enveloped by your anti-magic field. In other words, from the moment you used the spiritual wall, you had already set up this trap?”
In just a few sentences, Antonya had pretty much guessed Zhao Xu’s thoughts.
When he heard the voice of the person behind him, Zhao Xu just smiled.
“In fact, this is like a chess game. There are thousands of changes in every step, but the opponent just happened to enter one of the dozens of situations I anticipated. At the same time, as time passed, this thought only became more profound.”
“Yes.” Antonya nodded her head obediently. that makes sense. It looks like you’re about to finish your apprenticeship. Although he’s only a six-ring Soul Master, he has the diabolic energy and the advantage of this domain. He’s also an extremely dangerous vilifying scholar, and you’re worthy of praise for being able to defeat him.”
as for what happened after that, you were still able to deal with a corpse so calmly, eliminating the possibility of the other party’s resurrection step by step. This kind of thinking dimension makes me feel even more gratified.
In reality, other Wizards couldn’t do what Zhao Xu was doing.
If one wanted to suppress the resurrection, one had to use an anti-magic field. However, the anti-magic field would also suppress those methods that could reverse the resurrection.
The whole process was an endless loop of shouting for each other to come down and come up.
This was only possible if Zhao Xu himself wasn’t suppressed by the anti-magic field.
Zhao Xu finally turned around and looked straight at Antonya, who was standing behind him.
At this moment, she was wearing a milky white wool coat with her hands in her pockets. Even though the coat was bloated, it still couldn’t hide her amazing temperament.
“So, you’ve been observing from the beginning?” Zhao Xu asked in return.
“In fact, it was even earlier.”
antonya gently moved her hair to reveal her extreme gentleness as she looked at zhao xu with a slightly seductive gaze.
I arrived in this world a few minutes later than you. Don’t underestimate your teacher’s abilities.
Antonya snorted and said, ” but for you to understand that you have to face the difficulties bravely and head straight into this giant stone fortress is still commendable. Otherwise, the original you would have lost your consciousness and fallen into the deep sea, and then be devoured.”
” and then, master, you just hid behind my shadow the entire time and watched everything that happened? ” Zhao Xu asked.
Antonya nodded slightly. that’s only natural.
Right now, she was still standing in Zhao Xu’s shadow, and she was leaning against the fluorescent moss on the ceiling of the cave. These green shadows were very eerie.
“What about the explosions just now?” Zhao Xu kept asking.
He had just broken the staff of might and caused a huge explosion.
He had no doubt that Antonya was able to avoid the explosion, but he clearly didn’t feel any magic fluctuations, so how was Antonya able to avoid the explosion so quietly?
idiot, I’ve been controlling myself to hide in the spirit realm from the very beginning. Antonya explained, ” the damage caused by a broken staff of power can’t even reach the spirit world.
“Yes.”
At this moment, Zhao Xu quietly lowered his head and looked like he was listening to her lecture.
However, the next second, he raised his head again and looked at the other party with a cold gaze.
Then how can you prove that you are my mentor, Antonya? ”
No matter how logical the other party’s explanation was, it couldn’t dispel the doubts in Zhao Xu’s heart.
Antonya, who was standing at the back, could feel the eerie green light from above. She smiled and said, ” if you doubt me, don’t you have a way to prove it? ”
“I’ll use your eyes that can see through illusions.”
Even though Antonya didn’t point it out directly, Zhao Xu understood what she was trying to say.
Truth knowledge skill!
If Antonya was a fake, then he would naturally be able to use the legendary truth-seeing spell, which was said to be able to see through all illusions and suppress all illusionists.
This priest spell of five spells, six virtues, and seven virtues cost 250 gold coins in itself. He bought an eye cream made of mushroom powder, Croton, and oil and applied it to the edge of his eyes as a casting material.
Then, this minute-level spell could give the target the ability to see the true appearance of things.
From that moment on, Zhao Xu became able to see through the darkness created by normal spells and magic spells. He was able to see the secret door and the true location of all objects that were affected by haziness or displacement spells.
Invisibility, illusionary techniques, transformation … All of these true appearances that had been changed would be revealed by this magical technique one by one.
In fact, Antonya had just said that if she was hiding in the spirit world, spells would be easy to see.
Right now, there was a ” true vision gem ” in Zhao Xu’s backpack. It could be activated and used for half an hour every day, and it could also be used non-stop. It was a key item that was essential for any adventure.
The only problem was that 75000 gold coins was too expensive, and not many people could afford it.
Zhao Xu reached out his hand and was about to take out the gemstone to check its authenticity.
But he instantly remembered.
Magic items could be suppressed.
And because it wasn’t part of Zhao Xu’s body, Zhao Xu couldn’t see it on the status bar.
He might even be affected by the illusion and mistakenly think that the ‘false vision’ he saw through the useless ‘true vision gem’ was real.
At first, when he was on the stormy waves outside, just because of a few mysterious murmurs, the eye of concealment on Zhao Xu’s forehead, which had a mind barrier effect, cracked open and lost its magic effect.
That was why he switched to the chosen reward spell, ” mental barrier.
“What’s wrong? Your gem of truth has run out of time? Then I’ll lend you a truth-revealing magic scroll.”
It was as if Antonya could see what Zhao Xu was worried about, so she kindly provided him with a solution.
or, I can perform the ‘truth-revealing technique’, and you can perform the’ steal technique ‘to transfer the technique from me. Don’t worry, as long as I agree, you can transfer the technique.
“Thank you. I have the means to learn the art of truth.” The corners of Zhao Xu’s mouth curled up slightly as he said this.
The other party’s confident look even made him suspicious.
If he were to take out a ‘scroll’ from the box in the next moment, would it still be his original scroll?
At this moment, he had to be more cautious.
Spell, Level 5 option ” truth knowledge “.
He used the true knowledge skill!
Zhao Xu didn’t hesitate at all as he completed the decision for the chosen one’s reward.
This was also the reason why Antonya didn’t make the decision for him in the first place and had asked him to adapt to the situation on his own.
Thanks to this, he had been able to use the chosen one’s spell to cast fifth, sixth, and eighth-circle spells one after another. He had not dropped the ball at the critical moment.
As the soft light from the arcane spell fell on Zhao Xu’s eyes, the spirit world that was overlapping with the Prime Material Plane slowly appeared before his eyes.
The image of that world looked weak and unclear. The colors were mixed, and the boundaries of the objects were blurred and distorted.
But the key to all of this was that Antonya’s figure was extremely clear in front of him. That beautiful and pure appearance was exactly the same as the one he had seen in the floating city.
Zhao Xu couldn’t help but relax.
He couldn’t help but complain, ” teacher, it seems that the green light in the background just now made you look a little strange.
“Then you won’t doubt me anymore, right?”
“Yes.”
Zhao Xu laughed.
But the next second, his face froze.
“Who are you?”
