The Truth of Magic

Chapter 662 Explosive Killing

Originally, when the tainted scholar on the opposite side was engaged in a magic battle with Zhao Xu, he always looked like an old god, and he was not at all worried that Zhao Xu would be able to forcefully beat him.

In other words, both parties at this time began to understand that the other party was by no means an easy person.

For a mage, what is even more terrifying is their respective backhands.

The most direct method is the method with the sixth ring triggering technique as the core.

The trigger itself needs to cast accompanying spells at the same time when casting the spell, and the number of rings is limited to one-third of the caster's level, with a maximum of six rings.

When a clear trigger condition is defined, such as a general event or a certain effect takes effect, the triggered spell will be released automatically.

At this time, it is likely to become an important weight affecting the balance of victory.

Although Zhao Xu didn't see it on the other party, the ivory statue (1500 gold coins) had to be worn to trigger the spell to take effect.

However, as a tainted scholar who relies on evil gods and can obtain gifts through sacrifices, the mentally handicapped technique that the other party reversed back to him just now has taught him a solid lesson.

At that time, Zhao Xu still matched the twin effect.

That is to say, he was affected by two retarded spells at the same time. If he hadn't thrown a spell that was immune to his own effects, one might not be enough to capsize the ship in the gutter.

Therefore, Zhao Xu's second method of changing the situation was Wuhuan's stealing spell.

The spell can wind up the wind of magic, grabbing the spell from the enemy tightly, tearing it off and wrapping it around itself.

It instantly let Zhao Xu know all the spell effects on the opponent, including various specific effects.

What Zhao Xu had to do was also a test similar to dispelling magic.

His verification result - 1D20 + caster level (maximum 15), as long as it is greater than the corresponding difficulty of dispelling (11 + opponent's caster level), the magic can be successfully dispelled.

Therefore, it is essentially a fight for the caster level of both parties.

The difference is that as the active party, he can stack up to 15 levels, and then superimpose the specific performance results of levels 1-20.

On the other hand, the level of the caster is fixed at level 11. In theory, high-level mages are in a more favorable position.

As soon as Zhao Xu made a move, because of the poor performance of the superimposed levels 1-20, and his caster level was suppressed to the upper limit of level 15, he failed to seize the spell.

But this behavior also aroused the other party's surprise.

Because Zhao Xu had already cast several five-ring spells in just a few rounds, which was somewhat beyond the expectations of the pollution scholar.

Especially once the Spell Invalidation Barrier was taken away, the opportunity would be lost, so the tainted scholar directly cast the third ring's dispelling magic on Zhao Xu.

If Arthur's magic is a shield, then dispel magic must be one of the spears.

It can dispel most spell effects.

Many times, when encountering an enchantment protected by a magic barrier, or even facing some unsolvable buffs on the enemy, adventurers can only resort to dispelling magic.

Even when many mages are preparing spells, dispelling magic is a must-have method, and it is the kind of key spell that is not too much to prepare for two or three.

Sometimes you don't know what spell to arrange, so just throw in a dispelling magic, and you will definitely not make a big mistake.

Even if the sixth ring is filled with advanced dispelling magic, and the seventh ring is filled with instant dispelling magic, it is also a common routine.

This is also one of the reasons why the Holy Avenger, which can release advanced dispelling magic once every round, can be called the holy weapon of the paladin.

Dispel magic essentially has three effects, target-type dispel, area-type dispel, and counterspell.

The target-type release is also a check just like Zhao Xu's stealing method, one's own side (1D20+ level) against the enemy (11+ level).

The difference is that this time, the upper limit of the caster's level for dispelling magic is 10.

So even if the performance has a full 20th level, it will be at most 30th level. As long as the enemy's caster level is 20th, there will be a 31st level of difficulty in dispelling it, which means it cannot be dispelled.

All spells cast by Zhao Xu with a caster level of 33 have a full 44th level of difficulty.

Even if Master Nine Rings casts it in person, it cannot be lifted.

The advanced dispelling magic of the sixth ring has the same effect, the only difference is that the upper limit of the caster's level is increased to 20.

That is to say, the spells that can be dispelled up to 20+20=40th level of difficulty are also helpless for the 44th level of difficulty of Zhao Xu's own spells.

From the very beginning, Zhao Xu was not afraid of anyone's dispelling magic and advanced dispelling magic.

And if you want to rely on dispel magic to counter the spell, you also need to rely on the dispel test, which is also invalid for Zhao Xu.

The only risk is that dispel magic can be cast on items, which can suppress the effect for 1-4 rounds, so you need to be a little cautious.

At this time, the Lingbi in front of Zhao Xu was a huge barrier between the two of them. The deformed man on the opposite side did not dare to attack rashly. Without the protection of his own enchantment, he could only use dispel magic to deal with him first. Lingbi.

Naturally, the only effect brought about was that the nothingness light that dispelled the magic fell on the Lingbi, and disappeared without a trace after emitting a refraction.

Huh? The deformed male mage couldn't help showing a thoughtful look.

Apparently, he didn't expect that his confident dispelling magic just now would collapse in the middle, without even a slight chance of taking effect.

This gave him a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg of Zhao Xu's strength.

Your caster level is beyond my imagination. The deformed man sighed while coughing. He looked at the several Ion Stones flying around Zhao Xu's head, and couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that there is an Ain Stone that is said to be able to increase the caster's level, which is really enviable.

Even his eyes were scanning Zhao Xu's body, trying to find traces of the magic tattoo.

For ordinary spellcasters, the means to superimpose the level of the spellcaster are also very limited.

Like the advancement of a great mage, it can freely choose an advanced arcane ability at each level, and one of the advanced arcane abilities is the caster level +1.

And Arthur's spell power is basically linked to the level of the caster.

Therefore, countless mages know that they must work hard to improve their caster level, but no matter how everyone thinks about it, there is no suitable resource to choose from. It is as illusory as a promotion and salary increase.

Even Zhao Xu relied on the bug-level spell of Domain of Decline and Death to make a comeback in one fell swoop, bringing his power and caster level to the sky.

Just when the other party was absent-minded and sighing about his strength, Zhao Xu didn't stop at all.

Speaking of using defensive spells, he is really not afraid at all in the infinite ring position.

Zhao Xu reached into the side pocket of his backpack with one hand, and took out a handful of soil as he thought -

Originated from the tomb of a mage.

It's not that he has any hobby of tomb robbery, but the materials needed for various spells are just so strange.

Just in case, Zhao Xu didn't use potential points to simulate the Spell Casting Material Free specialty, so he had to honestly buy this spell casting material, which was worth less than 1 gold coin.

The incomparably warm arcane brilliance of the protection system shines again——

Spell Twins!

Spell upgrade (potential point simulation)!

Guardian against demons!

This five-ring spell directly created an invisible barrier, which perfectly overlapped with the Lingbi spell that Zhao Xu had just cast.

Zhao Xu considered the other party's removal method, so he still used the twinning effect, casting the same enchantment twice at once.

Even if the other party can really create a miracle to dispel his spell, it still needs to be dispelled twice in a row.

Magic Repelling Guard, as the name suggests, is a spell against magic.

The guard barrier created by Zhao Xu can prevent any unauthorized spellcasters or creatures with spell-like abilities from entering.

As long as the opponent's will check fails, they will stop in front of this invisible obstacle.

At the same time, the magic ability of the creature itself will also increase the difficulty of immunity. For example, having a five-ring spell will increase the difficulty of the fifth level. Combined with the difficulty of Zhao Xu's spell upgrade, it cannot be underestimated.

Lingbi cannot prevent creatures from entering, but outside spells cannot enter.

The magic repelling guard cannot block spells, but outside spellcasters cannot enter.

The combination of Lingbi + Guardian against magic instantly becomes an extremely powerful invincible means against the caster.

The only flaw is that the other party survived the will save and broke in.

Sihuan's elastic ball was essentially immune to all damage, but it also blocked Zhao Xu's attack from the inside out.

But at this moment, Lingbi + Guardian of Repelling Demons does not have such troubles.

In fact, considering going to the abyss, the demons there basically all have magic-like abilities of level 17, 18, and 9, so the guard against demons is extremely targeted.

Therefore, it was included in Zhao Xu's must-choice list early in the morning, but it was not expected to come in handy here first.

Your five-ring spell relies on casting spells without using items, which is too much. At this moment, the deformed man looked at Zhao Xu's added spell and frowned and said.

Zhao Xu just smiled slightly at this.

The next moment, he also began to formally raise his hand, continuing to prepare to target the opponent——

Three Rings of Holy Magic!

Spell upgrade!

The spell is extremely effective!

Spell Twins!

Hammer of Justice!

This spell was promoted to the ninth ring by Zhao Xu, directly skipping the interception range spell of the Spell Ineffective Barrier, and turned into a huge warhammer made of positive energy on the spot.

It appeared in front of Zhao Xu in an instant, and then threw it at the target he designated within the range of the spell, and hit the opponent without any mistakes.

This force field spell can strike targets in the spirit world.

Therefore, even if the opponent is under the blessing of Advanced Blink, they will still be hit by 100%, and then cause real damage.

A mage's own health is not too much, which is why the Law of Death of the Nine Rings can only target targets below 150HP, and it can also slightly threaten the mage.

And Zhao Xu's Hammer of Justice at the moment, relying on the characteristics of each level of damage 1-8 points, the ultimate effect is increased to 8 points and then 16 points through the twins, superimposed on the caster level of 33, which is 33 times the total damage of 528 .

Moreover, this spell is aimed at the opponent's fortitude save, even if it succeeds, it will take half of the damage.

At the same time, he was also ready for protection, and spells such as Wings of Asylum were ready to be launched intuitively at any time.

At this moment, with the ejection of the war hammer, it submerged into the body of the opposite pollution scholar in an instant, and the positive energy light directly swept the entire space in the grotto.

The blazing positive energy light, like a judgment from the heavens, directly killed the evil in the whole world without a single place to stay.

No dodge?

Zhao Xu originally speculated that the other party would have special means to avoid it, and was preparing for the next round of plans.

I didn't expect him to reach the goal so easily, it was like a heavy punch missed.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that these initial cautious actions were a bit redundant, and they were just trying to make up for the opponent's strength.

However, he didn't relax his vigilance, he kept a close eye on the details in front of him during the whole process, and the protective spell in his hand was on the verge of firing.

The white light dissipated.

The deformed man's body swayed a bit. After passing the hammer just now, it was enough to see the entire ribs. The clothes were completely burned by the positive energy and fell off, revealing a row of bright red wounds.

Even the maggots that initially burrowed into the old wound were killed by the positive energy, making the wound look normal instead.

The polluting scholar just shook his body and smiled cruelly at Zhao Xu, Unfortunately, you can't kill me in this space.

Because I was sheltered here.

An asylum that you cannot think clearly and understand.

As he spoke, he staggered and prepared to walk out of the area of ​​the spell invalidation barrier and walked towards Zhao Xu.

Suffering more than hundreds of injuries without wavering?

Arthur's health never falls from the sky.

The amount of healing may be able to create miracles, but as much as the essence of life is, that is how much.

It only depends on Hit Dice and Constitution.

Looking at the thin and thin appearance of the deformed man in front of him, although it is related to corruption, the physique itself is not so high.

But why?

During these few steps of observation, Zhao Xu saw that the other party's steps were sluggish, as if he had been cursed, much slower than others, but he was still walking towards him unswervingly.

Zhao Xu also gritted his teeth directly, come again!

Spell upgrade! The spell is extremely effective! Spell Twins! Hammer of Justice!

History repeats itself, and two force field hammers emitting dazzling light fell on the deformed man's contaminated scholar again, but he still shook for a few minutes and did not die just like that.

And in the short time that Zhao Xu wasted time repeatedly casting spells, the pollution scholar had already broken into Zhao Xu's Guardian against demons, and it was obvious that the other party's will was terrifyingly high.

Dissociation!

In the next second, the light of death swept across Zhao Xu's face in an instant. This could dissociate the meaning of death from all things, directly obliterate all objects, and shatter Zhao Xu's body on the spot.

And Zhao Xu didn't stop at all, and dealt out his cards on the spot.

Wings of Shelter.

In an instant, the two offset each other, and the wing of protection of the second ring firmly exerted its final effect, offsetting the effect of the dissociation technique of the sixth ring.

But in the next second, Zhao Xu realized that the deformed man had walked in front of him, and at the same time broke the mighty staff in his hand!
