The Truth of Magic

Chapter 290 Reunion

The lich, who had passed through so many years, exuded a frightening aura all over his body.

That is the "fear aura" that comes with the lich. All those whose Hit Dice is less than 5 HD, that is, if the adventurer is below level 5, if they stare at the lich, they will be affected by the three-ring spell "fear" of the same name and fall into panic. state.

Zhao Xu also relied on the characteristics of undead creatures to be immune to this mind-affecting effect.

At this moment, Zhao Xu's whole mind was highly concentrated. If he didn't handle it properly, maybe his precious "lord of the dead" ability would have to be handed over here.

No matter how outstanding a spellcaster is, if there is no channel, it is often impossible to avoid the coming of aging and death.

At this time, some spellcasters will choose to become a "Lich", as long as they have to go through an extremely evil ritual called "Lich's Nativity Box" to achieve it.

The biggest advantage of becoming a lich is that it can perfectly inherit the previous professional ability, which is what most spellcasters care about.

And the whole ceremony is to create a magic phylactery used to store life energy, and only by destroying this phylactery can the Lich be officially destroyed.

Otherwise, even if the lich dies on the spot, it will be resurrected around the phylactery within 1-10 days.

This is also the reason why Arthur chose the Lich as the protagonist in countless legendary hero stories, so that the resurrected Lich can return as the final devil king in the next part.

To become a lich, you have to study the creation specialty of "creating strange objects", and then pay a full 120,000 gold coins and a lot of energy before you can perform the ceremony.

Compared with the direct nine-ring spell "Years Without a Trace", the cost is huge, and it is also strictly limited to the evil camp.

As for the "Grand Lich" of the good camp and the more advanced "Demilich" of the legendary level, they are rare in Arthur, and they are not much rarer than the legendary priest.

And "Demilich" is often called "Demilich" because of its incomparable power.

At this moment, Zhao Xu turned around. He looked contemptuously at the lich floating in the air, directly and decisively exhausted his ability to "perceive death" again, and opened his right eye.

When the lich saw Zhao Xu open his closed right eye, he immediately felt a strong will of death over his soul, almost making him kneel down and worship him.

The lich wanted to use the "protection spell" to protect itself, but it couldn't sense any spell cast by the mysterious man in front of it.

At first glance, the opponent gave him the impression that he was an undead creature.

But when he carefully distinguished it, he couldn't tell what type of undead creature it was, instead it looked more like a living thing.

The man in front of him is definitely not the most human-like undead creature "vampire".

And Zhao Xu's right eye was also exuding the power of death at this time, and all kinds of possibilities were constantly changing, and it gradually became a scene of scenes, flashing past his eyes.

"The phylactery in your dimensional bag is damaged, why don't you repair it?" Zhao Xu said indifferently. At this moment, he looked at the Lich in front of him with cold eyes.

After hearing Zhao Xu's words, the lich suddenly lost his mind. It never occurred to him that the deepest secret he had hidden was known by the boy.

How could the other party know that he carried the "fate box" with him?

And also know that the "fate box" is broken?

As the most precious treasure of the lich, the phylactery is basically hidden in the most heavily guarded and mysterious places.

"You are?" The lich was about to ask Zhao Xu with an unbelievable expression, but he felt the gaze of a superior, and couldn't continue.

Zhao Xu didn't speak any more at this time, but turned his head contemptuously, and continued walking, saying, "Your way is right, but you either become a demigod lich, or use the legendary spell 'Shattered Phalaenopsis', Otherwise, if you take action on your phylactery without authorization, you will be seeking your own death. Don’t think too stupidly of the liches that have been around for thousands of years, you are the only one who is smart.”

When the lich heard Zhao Xu's words, his mind became even more agitated, and his skin, which was already withered and skinny, seemed to turn rosy.

Its voice was trembling, and it wanted to run up to ask Zhao Xu for advice.

But seeing that the other party ignored it at all, but didn't dare to come forward to disturb it, for a while, it could only stop on the spot and watch Zhao Xu respectfully watch Zhao Xu disappear at the corner of the street.

Zhao Xu, on the other hand, walked to another corner before he let out a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, in the work of a mage, intelligence comes first.

Just now he used "Perception of Death" to see the scene where he was directly destroyed by the opponent with the "Disintegration Technique" after a conflict broke out with this Lich.

Later, he switched four or five routes in a row, and finally escaped with the "Lord of the Undead".

Even this time, he saw a longer future, when he directly ordered the lich to tell where his phylactery was hidden.

It was also in his destiny that he also knew that this Lich was actually a courageous Lich, who directly carried the most important phylactery with him.

But this is also a helpless move by the other party.

Because this lich has recently provoked a certain legendary undead creature, the other party directly threatened it to hand over the phylactery to save its life, otherwise it must hunt down until it destroys the phylactery.

So this lich has been trying to split its phylactery into two parts, so that even if one part is damaged, it can be resurrected with the other part.

Zhao Xu just told it directly that there are two ways to divide the phylactery.

One is to use "legendary spells" to divide the phylactery, and the other is to become a "demilicch", which can divide the phylactery into eight soul gems. As long as there is one gem, it can be resurrected.

That's why Zhao Xu pointed out such a shocking truth, which directly made the Lich doubt his identity.

Moreover, there was a huge commotion in the entire city today. The combination of various factors made the other party dare not test him any more.

After experiencing this time, when Zhao Xu acted again, he waited and watched in various ways, and acted only after making sure that there was no problem. Even in special situations, he directly chose to use the "invisibility technique" to transition over.

Anyway, no one wears true seeing every day.

In this way, after Zhao Xu walked for an hour or two, he finally reached the "high tower" within his sight.

The whole tower is eight floors high, and the top one is a clock tower. The big pendulum clock from the Mechanical Realm keeps moving the second hand forward.

After Zhao Xu observed and judged, he found that although there were undead creatures near the clock tower, there were not half of them approaching.

It's very strange, the tall tower looks more like a church, and it seems to be able to exorcise undead creatures.

However, he didn't think too much, taking advantage of the effect of his invisibility technique not disappearing, he walked directly towards the extremely thick double iron gate, and then slipped through the gap.

It's just that as soon as Zhao Xu stepped in, he felt something was wrong, and immediately heard the sound of breaking through the air.

"Secondary Rapid Explosion!"

At this moment, Zhao Xu didn't delay at all, and cast the spell directly.

Immediately, his whole body was in a state of extremely slow time flow, and the arrow that would have arrived in an instant moved bit by bit with endless hesitation.

It's a pity that Zhao Xu hadn't been able to cast the "swift burst" of the fourth ring yet, and the extra time he got would be enough to cast the spell.

Now it is only a second-level spell, and he can only use it to forcefully move a certain distance, less than a few meters.

Zhao Xu, who lacked the "Teleportation Boots", could not teleport with his boots, and could only walk automatically.

At this time, he was also annoyed, because undead creatures were already immune to attribute absorption, and also immune to strength, agility, and perception attribute damage, and even lowered his own vigilance. He didn't expect to be able to be attacked by long-range weapons just after entering the door. attack.

It is also extremely rare to wear a skeleton warrior with a bow and arrow.

Fortunately, he was still invisible at this time, so Zhao Xu walked forward immediately, until he reached a corner that was convenient for escape and stood firm.

Then a dizzy feeling came from the sequelae of the spell, which directly paralyzed all Zhao Xu's actions.

"Boom." With two sounds at the same time, the two arrows directly hit the door frame, and the tail feathers of the arrows were still trembling.

"It's strange. Obviously, the magic alarm sounded. I estimated the pace of the pace. Even if the opponent was invisible, he would have walked to this position. Why didn't he?" At this time, Eswig walked out of it with a frown. At this time, she held the light Crossbow thought deeply.

And Wang Ningwei also held a light crossbow and walked out of another shadow, also frowning deeply.

"Let me tell you, this meeting ceremony is too polite." Only then did Zhao Xu release his invisibility, and complained to the two women.

"Ah, Zhong Xia." Wang Ningwei was startled at first, but when she turned around and saw that it was Zhao Xu, she was pleasantly surprised.

Although Aisweixi didn't say a word, she was quite moved by the way she looked at Zhao Xu at this moment.

"You shouldn't have come in." At this time, Wang Ningwei slightly reproached, "And congratulations, you are already level 5, and Eswig and I are just now level 3."

"That's why you didn't even want to notify me in the qq group." Zhao Xu laughed.

Indeed, resurrection can only be resurrected in this half-plane, and the level of undead creatures inside is very high. It can be said that for each player, there is not much difference from direct sales.

"Actually, I came to this demiplane, and I also have extra tasks. I came to find you on the way, just to exchange information." Zhao Xu said in relief, so as not to burden everyone.

What he dislikes the most is being kind to others.

But Wang Ningwei said: "If you send us another QQ message, we will naturally tell you the situation."

Zhao Xu also smiled, "I sent it to you, but you didn't reply. I came here to find you with the object location technique."

"Hey, Ningwei asked me not to reply to you until we cancel our account or go out. It is to prevent you from being chauvinistic after you know the truth, and forcefully come in to save us." Eswig said.

Zhao Xu thought about it too. Once the other party didn't reply, he might think he had given up. After all, he couldn't get out of the game and it wouldn't affect reality.

It's just that Zhao Xu couldn't help but stare at Wang Ningwei at this moment. Maybe the other party also guessed the clues of the national crossing ten months later.

In other words, the other party really believed in this set of information deduced from the game, but it's just a matter of second grade.

As Zhao Xu thought about it, he also began to selectively reveal some of the information he had come in, and exchanged information with each other.

At this time, Wang Ningwei and Aisweixi also told Zhao Xu about their experiences during this time.

In the end, Zhao Xu couldn't help but raised his head after listening to it, and looked at the top floor of the tower that was separated by many floors.

There is actually a portal there!

It can lead to the outside world, and it can also lead to the temple where the "Amber Coffin" is stored!
