Chapter 445
Zhao Xu had been fighting the entire night in the ambush area outside the crater the moment he had come out. He only took a nap after he had killed so many people that bodies were strewn all over the ground. Then, he rushed over to meet up with Antonya. He hadn’t even had the eight hours of rest to recover his spell slots.
And Antonya had told him to go in and rest, and with the time needed to prepare his spells, wouldn’t he have to stay in there for more than ten hours? by then, it would probably be dark.
“Instructor, this isn’t very good. Although Arthur isn’t as guarded between men and women as in ancient times on earth, it’s not good for me to sleep in the carriage all the time.”
at this moment, antonya’s slightly cold voice came from inside. ” zhongxia, what are you thinking about? ” Come in and you’ll know.”
After hearing this, even though Zhao Xu was still a little confused, he still listened to Antonya’s suggestion and parked the carriage to the side before getting in.
Vivian gave up a seat for him to pass. At this time, there was an exquisite blanket laid out at the back of the spacious carriage.
The mat was very thick, and the dense stitches looked like they were woven by an experienced hand. The dark green cloth was wrapped in a yellow lining, and it smelled slightly like a bonfire and goose meat, making people feel at ease.
“Lie down.”
Antonya’s instructions were still simple and clear.
After Zhao Xu did as he was told, he suddenly felt a strange sense of sleepiness coming from under the bed, and his breathing slowly became long and drawn out.
Zhao Xu had listened to medical lectures before, and if he wanted to fall asleep quickly, he just had to adjust his breathing to the same frequency as when he was sleeping. Breathing slowly would naturally make him sleepy.
How could he have thought that just lying down would have such a magical effect? could it be that it had the effect of “sleep magic”?
this is Howard’s enhanced bedding. Your bag was invented by that master magician Howard.
“As long as you crawl into this blanket, you will activate its magic, which can be used once a day. It allowed one to enjoy a full eight hours of rest with an hour of complete sleep. However, even if it takes effect every day, you can only use this blanket once every 48 hours.”
Zhao Xu couldn’t help but touch the smooth silky surface of his blanket. The weakness of a wizard’s eight-hour rest period, which could greatly affect a battle of attrition, was actually so easily made up for by this blanket.
However, it didn’t mean much to someone like him, who would be able to restore his ‘spell slots’ infinitely in the future.
However, it could still be used when changing spell slots, and for other mages, it could be considered an emergency treasure.
“Don’t think too much, go to sleep.”
Slowly, Antonya began to sing Arthur’s war Elegy in Elvish. Her sad tone was as light and gentle as a lullaby.
Vivian was also on the side, and she responded in heavenly language. The two unique and intertwining female voices slowly brought Zhao Xu into Dreamland.
———————-
One hour of sleep.
One hour to prepare the arcane spell.
One hour to prepare the divine spell.
Even though Zhao Xu had Howard’s strengthened blanket, it still took him three hours to fully recover all the spells in his body.
He looked at his spell list.
[ arcane (wizard):
[ zero points: 4=4 (class) ]
[ 1st circle: 7=4 (class) +3 (intelligence) ]
[ 2nd circle: 5=3 (class) +2 (intelligence) ]
[ 3rd Circle: 4=2 (class) +2 (intelligence) ]
[ 4th circle: 3=1 (class) +2 (intelligence) ]
[ Divine Art (scroll):
[ zero points: 4=4 (class) ]
[ 1st circle: 5=4 (class) +1 (perception) ]
[ 2nd circle: 5=4 (class) +1 (perception) ]
[ 3rd Circle: 3=3 (class) ]
[ Divine Art (priest):
[ zero points: 3=3 (class) ]
[ 1st circle: 2+1 (territory)=1 (class) +1 (perception) +1 (territory) ]
Now that he had 28 points of intelligence, Zhao Xu could be considered to have more spell slots than before.
With the three classes combined, he had a total of 11 level 0 spell slots, 13 Level 1 spell slots, 10 Level 2 spell slots, 7 level 3 spell slots, and 3 level 4 spell slots.
By relying on many talented spell casters, he could even combine two low-circle spell slots into a high-circle spell slot.
alright, next up, we’ll be exploring the underground. In order to let you have a sense of existence, I need you to do your best. Antonya said to Zhao Xu with a smile.
teacher, although I don’t like to live off a woman, I think I can still tolerate things like taking risks. Zhao Xu said helplessly.
Antonya was so serious that she would rather wait for him for three hours to recover his spell slots, and this already gave him a bad feeling.
“Then you’ll still have to live off of her.” Antonya said slowly, ” come, let’s level up our spellcaster level first. We’ll see what spells you can use later.
“Coming, coming.”
Zhao Xu could feel Antonya’s invisible waves of energy. Even though the air in the car was flowing smoothly and wasn’t stuffy at all, he could still feel an ” invisible ” pressure. Even the succubus, Vivian, was sitting upright and still.
Zhao Xu looked at his spellcaster level. He was Level 6 in the divine arts, and with the aid of the Ain stone, the ritual, and the two day long magic tattoo, he was level 9.
He then took out the Rosary necklace from his bag and moved it to the two magic Rosary.
[adventurer zhongxia, you have activated the magic bead. Your spellcaster level has increased by 4 to level 13. [duration: 10 minutes]
[adventurer zhongxia, you cast the level 2 spell ‘body sacrifice\'( spell duration). Your Constitution is reduced by 10 points, and your spellcaster level is increased by 5 to level 17. [duration: 24 hours]
After seeing what Zhao Xu was doing, Antonya quickly cast heal on Zhao Xu to recover the 10 points of Constitution damage that he had received from sacrificing his physical body, as well as the damage that he had received from using Supreme magic control.
After that, she also cast a mental protection spell on Zhao Xu, which made him immune to elemental damage. because the spell [sacrifice of the body] required physical damage, two points of physical damage in exchange for a level 1 spellcaster’s level, he could not use mental protection in advance.
At level 17 and Level 6, even the best cleric might not be able to stack as high as Zhao Xu.
After 10 minutes, the mana beads would lose their effect and he would return to level-13.
Then all he had to do next was to use the legendary staff to cast the ‘field of decline (spell duration )’.
However, Antonya gently stopped Zhao Xu’s hand from shaking the mutated Spider out of his dimensional bag. take this Holy emblem.
Only then did Zhao Xu notice that this was a Holy emblem of the goddess of magic, sisylvana. It was carved into the shape of a stretched skull using rubies, and it was twisted by magic.
The empty eye sockets of the skeleton on the Holy emblem were staring at Zhao Xu.
casting necromancy spells through this Holy emblem will increase the spellcaster’s level by 1.
At the same time, Antonya instantly cast three spells: melodious harmony (Level 2), poem of reverence (Level 2), and mana enhancement (Level 4).
Three notifications popped up in a row, telling Zhao Xu that he would be able to increase his spellcaster level by two for the duration of each spell.
in other words, he now had 17+6= level 23 spellcaster level.
antonya didn’t stop moving the entire time. she immediately took out another cross made from rough broken wood and hemp rope and hung it around his neck. she ordered, ” [ consume two level 3 spell slots to combine into a level 4 spell slot. Use it as a price to activate the next spell. ]
Zhao Xu looked at this and realized that this was no small matter, so he immediately did as he was told.
[ adventurer zhongxia, you have activated the arsenson cross badge and consumed a level 4 spell slot. Your next spell that does not exceed Level 4 will be considered A +4 spell to reach level 27. ]
When Zhao Xu saw this number, he was a little stunned.
He directly controlled the Holy emblem in his hand, poured out a row of super-small mutated spiders, and quickly raised his staff to cast the spell that would decide everything for himself.
[ adventurer zhongxia, you have used your staff to cast the realm of decay (spell duration). Your spellcaster level (level 28, sacred emblem +1) has increased by 14 to Level 42. Your strength has increased by 28 points. Your temporary HP has increased by 63HP (14d8) ]
However, the level 42 spell caster level was only an illusion for a moment.
After casting the spell, the one-time abilities such as the arsenson cross and mana enhancement were lost, and even the various temporary means gradually lost their effect.
After ten minutes, Zhao Xu was left with only the spells that could last for 24 hours.
His spellcaster level had finally reached 13 (initial) +14 (realm of decline)= level 27.
now, he had 27 levels, which was four times more than zhao xu’s initial level 6.
“So this is how the world of mages explodes.”
Zhao Xu couldn’t help but say emotionally.
Other than the fact that he had used the psychic bead in his necklace to temporarily increase his mana by 4.
Antonya had just given him three spells (+6), arsenson’s cross (+4), and the Holy emblem (+1). All of these were to bring this temporary level 15 spellcaster level into the realm of decay.
As long as he cast the field of decay, he would have an additional 15 levels.
As long as there was a second of glory, he could rely on the field of decline spell to transform it into a level 8 (half) spellcaster level that lasted for 24 hours.
This caused Zhao Xu’s final spellcaster level to be at level 27 even though he had lost a bunch of temporary effects and was reduced from Level 42 to its original level.
Of course, he could also use Antonya’s three spells. It was equivalent to one spell slot in exchange for a level 1 spell caster.
so even without antonya, zhao xu was still able to copy all of the spells he had just done, but it would take up a lot of spell slots.
Even if he didn’t use the skills that Antonya had given him today, he would still be able to reach level 22 with the help of the magic beads and the Holy emblem.
a level 27 spell caster’s level ability. Cool, right? ” Antonya said with a smile.
At this moment, Zhao Xu looked at his hands and nodded. that’s true. I feel like I’m a little invincible.
But he immediately looked at Antonya.
It seemed like Antonya’s bragging about her spell caster level being over level 70 wasn’t just to make him feel better.
