The Truth of Magic

Chapter 23 Awakening Ritual

Less than ten minutes later, a maid knocked on the door.

But before Zhao Xu stood up, Antinoya opened the door. The other party didn't say much, just lowered his head respectfully, put down a box of things in a hurry, and left.

Only then did Zhao Xu realize that the way of awakening that Antinoya said was not about reading books, but with some materials?

The way to awaken the 'Wise Heart Spellcaster' is very simple. After I arrange the ceremony, you can just sit in the middle for a while. Antinoya said as she opened the box.

Zhao Xu was a little confused, Is it that simple?

How long did it take the mage to recite a spell? Some players can already perform tricks, but they are still stuck in learning the two abilities of transcribing scrolls and summoning familiars.

In this way, isn't he equivalent to two thresholds less than others, after all, according to what she said, just sit there for a while.

Originally, he thought that he had to master those two abilities and then give up in exchange for the ability of Wisdom Spellcaster, but now it seems that this is not the case.

Mentor, if I awaken the ability of 'Wisdom Spellcaster', and instead of becoming a mage to work in other basic professions, wouldn't it be equivalent to earning an ability for nothing?

Antinoya's cloak turned sideways slightly, obviously casting a glance at him.

What are you thinking, as long as you don't become a level 1 mage within a certain period of time, you will lose all these extra abilities. Except that your dragon language comes with intelligence.

Only by completing the first level of professional level, it will become the anchor of all your professional abilities and strengthen them. And I also advise you, don't try to think about some very simple ways to exploit loopholes.

Arthur, for thousands of years, you can think of directly, or the way you can't think of, has been tried by countless people.

Including many novice mages, they like to think about borrowing spell books and copying them for others to collect money in the future.

Before Zhao Xu knew the ability of a wise spellcaster, he really planned that way, because people could make money by copying it, and a fool wouldn't do it, and he wasn't the only one with this spell.

Think about it, why aren't these spell books directly photocopied with spells? Or find a person with an extremely strong memory, and he can memorize them all at once. Why do you need to study for a day? If you don't study, just copy it?

When transcribing, you have to understand how the entire model works, so every stroke of yours is your perception. But this kind of perception cannot last. You can only experience the perception in the spell book. Get that spell ready again. It's how the mage casts it.

General mages will know about this when they copy spells.

However, they don't know that the original owner of the spell book that I lent you to copy is walking on the same path to prepare spells, so there is no problem. But if outsiders realize it, the circulation of their own models will be destroyed, so Every time you transcribe, there is a risk that the spells in the original spell book will be eliminated.

Hearing this, Zhao Xu's heart trembled. It turned out that lending the original to someone to make a copy might cause the original to be damaged.

In this case, even if the other party finishes copying, then you have to spend 50GP or 12.5GP per page to copy back your own spells from the other party.

This is too painful. I am afraid that except for good mage friends, most people will not easily borrow spell books. Who knows how worn the model itself is.

Just as Zhao Xu was thinking, Antinoya had already used the materials brought by the maid to carve on the ground in front of his dormitory.

Arthur's mage, cast spells, use gestures to add spells, and more is to add materials.

It is rare to need such a big movement to draw on the ground, so this estimate is not casting a spell.

Ritual. Antinoya continued to draw some strange runes with that special chalk-shaped thing after drawing a hexagram.

Ritual is a system independent of spells. It intersects with spells. For example, some similar spell effects can be achieved through long-term rituals. But because it takes a long time, it is not suitable for actual combat, but it is also something that ordinary people do not have. In the case of spell scrolls, it is one of the ways to display mysterious abilities.

And some ceremonies are like this, used to awaken professional abilities. Generally, this kind of awakening is common in various professional abilities.

Through this ceremony, your two abilities of 'copying scrolls' and 'summoning familiars' will be withdrawn in advance, and you will no longer be able to obtain them. Have you made up your mind?

Zhao Xu nodded with a firm face.

He has made a decision, and there is no reason to regret it.

More importantly, Antinoya chose the same way, and he didn't believe that he could really lose money.

Then you go to the middle of the ceremony and sit down.

After Zhao Xu heard this, he stood up directly, followed Antinoya's instructions, and sat down directly in the outlined circle.

Looking at each of the six corners of the hexagram lit a white candle, as well as the mysterious powder around him that was sprinkled by the other party, as well as his own shadow that alternated between reality and reality.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart. Isn't this kind of scene usually the method of those death squads trying to psychic in European and American horror movies?

Even if the demon lord comes, I can kill him back. What are you worried about? Antinoya said.

Zhao Xu could only comfort himself.

Indeed, with the strength of Antinoya's legendary sorcerer, it is not necessarily a bragging to say that it is really a bragging to say which clones of the legendary demon kings he encountered.

You take this piece of paper, recite the mantra on it, and then start to meditate that your heart is an endless and deep path.

Antinoya said that a piece of paper floated in front of Zhao Xu's eyes.

It made Zhao Xu wonder how many zero-level spell mage hands his mentor had prepared.

It's just that when he took it and saw the spell that was so dense that he could hardly write it down, Zhao Xu suddenly became suspicious——

My mentor, whose intelligence has exploded to 50, has also chosen some defects like forgetfulness, and I only show it to myself when things happen.

Fortunately, the spell itself was not a mouthful. Under the pressure of this mysterious ceremony, Zhao Xu immediately recited it.

Then he closed his eyes, imagining that he was walking on a deep road.

At this moment, Zhao Xu, who closed his eyes, did not notice that Antinoya took out a holy emblem of the goddess of magic and placed it in the eye of a rune circle outlined on the magic circle.

Then she took out another bottle of holy water and poured it directly towards the holy emblem, while chanting inexplicable incantations in her mouth plausibly.

The complex magic circle she drew suddenly seemed to have vitality, and it began to turn red like a fire, and flickering fluorescent lights appeared.

With a boom, Zhao Xu felt as if he had received a sledgehammer in his heart, which opened the deepest part of his heart.

He opened his eyes suddenly, looking ahead.

The fluorescence of the magic circle on the ground also disappeared the moment he opened it.

Every stroke of the original outline seemed to be wiped away, fading away, and finally condensed back to the holy emblem.

Zhao Xu was about to ask Antinoya if he had succeeded, but he noticed that it was on his character panel.

In the column of ability characteristics, the words Wisdom Spellcaster are firmly placed there.
