Chapter 249
249 Chapter 248-mage’s disintegration
The god of death couldn’t be resurrected?
if that was the case, then what was up with the 13 stone coffins of the priests in the underground temple?
And what about the “artificial death” that his Artifact Spirit, lacus, had mentioned?
Suddenly, all sorts of questions appeared in Zhao Xu’s mind. He had a lot of thoughts running through his mind, and he felt like he was being tangled up in a ball of complicated threads that he couldn’t quite understand.
It was a pity that Lux was still in a deep sleep after being overused by him that time, so he could not ask her about it.
Otherwise, Zhao Xu would have been able to play the three-person fight the landlord in his mind.
the reason why we can’t enter that half-plane is mainly because that plane has already been infected by the Godhead of death, and it also carries the anger of the death god.
“The more powerful a creature is, the more likely it will be to receive a blow from the Grim Reaper once it reaches the core area. Therefore, after losing the incarnations of three gods, the exploration of that half-plane was put on hold, and they used it to observe the contingency left behind by the death god.”
It turned out that danger and strength were reversed.
in the outer area of the half-plane, everyone was naturally the same.
however, once they entered the core area, the higher the level, the more dangerous it would be.
perhaps this was one of the reasons why he could obtain the additional specialty now.
After she asked Artoria the rest of the questions, she went back to her sleeping state. It was as if being in tune with Zhao Xu counted as a rare vacation, and she treasured every single moment of sleep she had.
zhao xu also walked out of the wizard mansion. he stood on the hill and looked at the calm and sparkling fallen star lake. it was just like the night patrol he had done eight or nine years ago.
the duration of the mansion spell was two hours per level, and it would last for a total of 60 hours until the end of the battle. zhao xu also planned to come back here at night to rest.
After communicating with Altoria, he felt that he had to modify his previous infiltration plan.
For Zhao Xu, his biggest advantage was that he knew everything about the places he was going to sneak into because of his previous life.
he didn’t even need to do the preliminary intelligence investigation.
At this moment, Zhao Xu took out a map of Starfall town. All of the treasures in Starfall town had been gathered in the underground treasure vault in the government office, which was located at the center of the map.
in fact, at this time, as long as the mine owners ‘brains were not fried, they would know to focus on guarding the treasure vault.
if they really lost, the wealth that they had accumulated over the decades would be the capital for dongshan mountain to rise again in the future.
Zhao Xu had an eighth-circle mental barrier around him, so basically all detection methods and devices were useless against him.
The only problem was that there was most likely a way to send an alarm. In that case, he couldn’t use an “advanced teleportation spell” to reach the core.
for example, teleportation spells would have the keyword ” teleportation ” and would be restricted by spells such as ” dimension anchor ” and ” dimension lock ” that blocked teleportation.
but zhao xu’s methods didn’t stop there.
there were many reasons for a spell caster’s strength. one of the most important ones was that there was often more than one method to achieve a goal.
Zhao Xu first cast advanced invisibility, a level 4 arcane spell, so that even if he were to attack again, he wouldn’t be revealed.
at the same time, this spell, which had a duration of 1 round per level, was also marked by ‘holy supreme magic: After ‘lasting spell’, it can last for 24 hours.
After this series of actions, he had obtained the effect of the invisible ring, which was worth more than 20000 gold coins.
Then, Zhao Xu started to simulate the 7th-circle divine spell of the Druids, earth mastery.
The ground under his feet turned transparent on the spot.
It was as if a huge hole had appeared in the ground, and Zhao Xu fell right into it.
After the figure disappeared, the ground of the hill returned to its original hardness. There were no signs of the soil being turned over, and the weeds were still firmly rooted.
zhao xu was now moving freely through the soil and rocks underground. right now, he felt as if he was flying in the sky.
Zhao Xu’s speed was also getting faster and faster, and he was now as fast as lightning.
“Do you think we’ll be broken through this time?” A young guard was standing on guard at the main path leading to the treasure vault. It was almost midnight and he was a little sleepy. He hurriedly chatted with his partner who was also standing guard beside him.
how is that possible? have you ever seen a sand pile that can’t be washed down by flowing water? with our years of hard training, we can beat them up with just a formation. Another guard who had been on the battlefield said confidently.
He used to be a soldier of the northern Alliance. When he was discharged from the Army due to injuries, he met his wife who was born in fallen star Lake and eventually married into the family. and his wife’s family had a close relationship with the mining association, which was why he was able to get such a lucrative job of guarding the treasure vault.
sigh, what’s there to guard this treasure vault for? they’re directly monitoring the fluctuations of the teleportation, and there are people listening to the ground. We’ll even know if someone appears inside. why would they need a group of us to stand guard here? it would be better to go to the battlefield and kill a few players to earn some extra money.”
the guard who had married into the family shook his head and said, ” sigh, i’m not younger than you. i’ll just die of old age here. ”
“By the way, big brother, have you heard?” At this moment, the younger guard lowered his voice and said, ” ” i heard that those slaves have been dealt with? ”
Hearing this, the older guard also turned his head and looked behind him. Then, he turned sideways and said, ” “yes, we did. whatever we deal with in the mine, we just throw it directly into the furnace and end it. Otherwise, when the temple’s investigation team arrives in a few days, we won’t be able to explain the appearance of those extra people.”
“Those leaders are really ruthless.” the younger guards did not expect the association to be so ruthless.
Hmph, how do you think they managed to squeeze out the other mine owners to manage it? ”
however, the secret treasure vault that they were talking about suddenly opened up a hole in the ground. zhao xu used his earth mastery and was immediately ejected from the ground.
unfortunately, after those detection devices scanned zhao xu’s body, they were blocked by his mental barrier.
Zhao Xu had relied on two spells, mind barrier and earth mastery, to accomplish a feat that countless rogues would find difficult to accomplish, and he had successfully broken into the treasure vault of Starfall town.
However, he did not immediately go to the bookshelf in the corner to check the distribution of the mineral veins and the secret information. Instead, he looked at another corner of the treasure vault, a similarly shadowy corner.
This was because the things recorded on the bookshelves might not be as comprehensive as the other party’s memory.
“hmm, truth-revealing skill?”
at this moment, a man whose entire body was covered in a bright white mithril walked out. he looked at zhao xu with a surprised expression.
it’s actually a priest of the goddess of magic. The man, who had been here for decades, seemed to only remember the meaning of the Holy emblem after a long time.
“emerald star master?” Zhao Xu also tried to ask.
even though he already had enough answers in his heart.
” oh, even though you can recall the origin of my profession, i still have to correct you. you should call me master mithril. ”
The man said with a smile. However, at this moment, he seemed to be made of pure Mithril, and his whole body had a stiff mechanical feeling.
This person was the target that Zhao Xu needed to pay attention to on this trip, and that was also the reason why he had come to the treasure vault.
When he thought about how the players in his previous life had been beaten to a pulp by this Mithril master, Zhao Xu started to get a little more serious.
through the library of legends and his knowledge skills, he knew that the advancement of ” jade star master ” was considered a semi-arcane advancement.
the reason why it was half was that this advancement had a total of 10 levels, but only a few levels would increase arcane spell casting ability.
Therefore, even if the man in front of him was a level 10 mage/level 10 master of the Emerald Star, a level 20 expert, he would only be equivalent to a level 15 mage.
The requirement for this advancement was to find the star ore of the corresponding metal, and then absorb the energy within.
as for star ore, it referred to the main ore that was brought down from the sky after the meteor fell.
it was also the reason why he had appeared at fallen star lake, the mithril mine that was famous in the northern alliance.
“From your eyes, you seem to be very familiar with our profession’s abilities.” The man suddenly revealed a thoughtful expression. as expected, after immortality, I’m not sensitive to many things.
“Let me introduce myself first. I’m Ferguson, a seventh-circle sorcerer.” the man who called himself ferguson said to zhao xu.
Eternal life!
Seven rings!
zhao xu immediately realized that the man in front of him had already leveled up to level 10.
at level 10, jade star masters would be able to carve out their bodies as if they were made of metal. at that point, they would become ” constructed creatures “.
Just like the golems, they gained eternal life.
This meant that Ferguson was a Level-8 sorcerer and a Level-10 Emerald Star Master, a level-18 master.
Because he had wasted five levels of his casting ability after losing his advancement, he was much weaker than a level 18 mage who could only cast ninth-circle spells.
“Priest of the goddess of magic, wind.” Zhao Xu said softly.
“Yes, I’ve been here since the moment the meteor fell. So, strictly speaking, the mine owners who came after me naturally can’t be considered as me rashly sneaking in.”
“What about you? the teachings of the kind goddess do not advocate the behavior of thieves.” ferguson said slowly. with his metallic voice, there was a trace of the vicissitudes of time.
“i’m mainly here to investigate the inside story of the fallen star lake.” Zhao Xu said as he looked at the man in front of him with a warm expression.
after he found out that the mysterious tomb that contained the source of the notebook might be hidden under fallen star lake, he had locked his target on the man who had witnessed the development of fallen star lake.
As for advanced professionals, they would not act rashly unless they had a life-and-death feud.
this was also the reason why he dared to come despite knowing that the other party was here.
“oh, it seems like you’re here to ask me.” Ferguson suddenly shook his head. I have to send away a few uninvited guests every year. I’ll have to collect a fee from the mine owners.
his tone immediately turned cold. “if you can defeat me, i’ll tell you everything.”
“master, he’s not just a seventh-circle wizard.” suddenly, lacus “sweet voice was heard.
“mage’s disjunction,”
however, freg’s spell was already ready.
