155 chapter 154-no price
Zhao Xu had once watched an ancient sci-fi movie called the matrix.
One of the most talked about scenes was when the protagonist was faced with a bullet, the passage of ti beca extrely slow, allowing the protagonist to easily bend over to avoid the bullet. This process was later called bullet ti.
This was the case for the swift Burst series of spells.
this was also the biggest difference between them and the ti stop spell.
During the ti when the ti stop spell was in effect, the surrounding ti would be still, and there would be no substantial impact on the outside world.
But under the effects of Swift power burst, ti would still flow, so Zhao Xu could still kill people with his fireballs.
once the spell’s side effects could be avoided, it ant that pandora’s magic box had been opened.
the zhao xu now was no longer the newbie who didn’t know anything about anything.
he imdiately thought of all kinds of possibilities that could break the balance.
“the first thought is to trigger the removal?” Zhao Xu said.
that day, when he cast the ” resurrection ” spell on asvich, he allowed her to take another immunity check.
if zhao xu had been level 3 back then, he would have been able to cast the level 2 divine spell ” halo of glory ” and remove asvich’s fear status right away, saving her the trouble of having to gamble on saving her life.
so, as long as soone cast a spell that could remove the stun effect on him, it would be fine.
“Then how do you achieve it?” Antonya saw that Zhao Xu was finally starting to use the logic of a wizard to think, so she asked him in a soft voice.
“for example, soone casting a spell like the ‘panacea’ on ?” zhao xu suggested.
The panacea was a level four divine spell. Through contact, it could remove 13 negative states, including blindness and shock, including dizziness.
“Don’t you think the price of getting soone to cast a level four divine spell on you is too high?” antonya asked, ” even if it’s a magical pet, it can’t play with you like this. ”
Zhao Xu suddenly understood.
the plan was feasible, but it needed to be further optimized.
When his character’s level reached a higher level, his pet would gain the ability to cast spells, such as cantrips, but that was all.
Even if there was a spell that could give a magic pet the ability to cast spells, it was still limited.
zhao xu’s direction required him to think of a lower price to pay.
The panacea spell wasn’t the only one that could remove negative states.
Zhao Xu started to think about the spells in his mind, and his eyes slowly started to light up.
“dical knowledge.” zhao xu said slowly.
dical knowledge was a level 2 divine spell for clerics, but it was also a level 1 divine spell for forest rangers, so Zhao Xu had already mastered this spell.
After casting this spell, Zhao Xu only needed to have a level 5 [ heal ] skill. Then, he could cast other curse-type healing spells such as healing light injuries and be able to remove additional negative status effects.
this included the “stunned” state.
the magic pet and the master were in a state of sharing spells, so they could also enjoy the effects of the [ dical knowledge ].
so all zhao xu’s magical pet had to do was cast a level 0 spell, heal minor injuries, on him when he was stunned, and it would trigger the effects of dical knowledge to help him get rid of the stunned state.
The level-zero divine spell ” healing minor injuries ” had a healing value of 1 HP. It was insignificant as long as it was a ” healing spell.
“However, it’s a bit passive to have a magical pet or soone else heal you.” zhao xu lowered his head and thought about it.
The more he had to go through, the easier it was for problems to arise.
It was indeed risky to pass on important life-related matters to too many links.
After he fell into a daze, things were no longer within his control.
This was not a risk that a rational mage should take.
“Indeed,” Antonya nodded.
After spending so much ti with Antonya, Zhao Xu understood what she ant.
if this was the end of this path, antonya would probably have told him from the start that it was not realistic and not continue to guide him on this path.
Zhao Xu continued to think back to the spells he had cast.
the few days in the final scroll were the most extravagant days of zhao xu’s life when he used his spells.
He also had a deep impression of magic.
Even the spells that were above Level-3 were not among the spells he knew. He could only rely on his mory to recall.
Suddenly, Zhao Xu’s entire body froze.
he thought of a spell, but the effect was hard for him to believe.
antonya was looking at him with anticipation in her eyes.
“combined with the distribution curse?” zhao xu asked in a low voice.
the divergence curse was a level five divine art.
As long as the spell was cast within a six-ter radius of Zhao Xu, he would be able to draw energy from the flow of the spell and automatically receive the healing effects of the healing spell.
if zhao xu cast a spell himself, it would also trigger this effect.
so every ti zhao xu cast swift burst, it was like he was casting a healing spell on himself.
This healing effect also triggered the effect of the level 1 spell ” dical knowledge “, which removed the ” stun ” effect.
with this logic, zhao xu could already feel that when the number of spells stacked up to a certain level ...
many spells that seed to cost a lot could be avoided through the spell chain.
this was the first lesson that antonya had taught him.
there were indeed strong and weak spells, but he had to figure out the strengths and weaknesses of each spell.
there were many materials about spells in the library. in fact, there was no lack of spells ‘uses, but most of them were limited to the core series of spells.
for example, if zhao xu hadn’t co across the swift burst spell in the final scroll, he probably wouldn’t have even known that such a spell existed in his entire life.
Even so ninth-circle sorcerers might not be able to master this spell.
“Alright, stop daydreaming. Now that your first thought has been verified, let’s talk about the second one.” antonya asked.
this ti, zhao xu didn’t even think about it and said, ” the second idea is immunity. ”
In Arthur, the strongest defense was called immunity.
Even if he kept increasing his defense level, it was possible that Zhao Xu’s ghoststrike, which could directly pierce through armor, would turn all the accumulated points into nothing.
Only sothing like Zhao Xu’s starry cloak, which made him immune to attacks from non-magic weapons, and even magic weapons, which only required him to be immune to the effects of reflection, could be considered a true defense.
it was the sa for the stun effect.
“what about the idea of realization?” Antonya asked.
“rcy of the martyr?”
zhao xu slowly spoke of this level 4 divine spell that only paladins could cast.
this was a divine spell that could only be learned by paladins at level 13, and zhao xu would only need to reach level 8 to be able to cast it.
this spell only took up a level 4 spell slot, but it was immune to seven or eight negative states such as dizziness, exhaustion, fatigue, and so on. even if his health points fell below 0 points, he would be able to stay awake until the official death of an hp-10.
the only pity was that it couldn’t be matched with spells for a long ti like split healing spells and dical knowledge.
” well, since you already have a certain understanding of the spell list, i won’t say anything more. ” after antonya heard zhao xu’s reply, she gently nodded her head and continued, ” “do you see any loopholes?”
“Unlimited connections?”
This ti, Zhao Xu’s tone finally had a hint of uncertainty.
in fighting gas, unlimited combos ant that from the beginning to the end, the opponent would be stunned until they died.
and among the spells, there was an unlimited combo, which ant that zhao xu could keep on casting the spell, swift burst, to keep it up.
this was especially true for the level 8 advanced swiftness burst, which would grant him an additional round of ti (6 seconds).
in this round, as long as he cast another wave of swift burst, he would be able to escape.
then, before zhao xu’s spell slots were completely burned up, he would be able to maintain that extrely slow flow of ti.
And during this ti, any spell he cast could be effective on anyone.
while the others couldn’t move, he could cast spells until he ran out of spell slots to cast swift burst.
who else could he be if not invincible?
even though zhao xu could only cast the spell “lesser swift burst” right now, and the ti he gained was only enough for him to move, he could still co up with many different tricks.
even if soone were to attack him, he would be able to use this spell to force himself to keep his distance.
“so after this spell was abused, it was corrected by the world’s will.” antonya interjected.
“So of the multiverse follows the rule that there is no gain without a price. If you receive an additional action, you will inevitably fall into a daze. If you’re immune to it, you won’t be able to cast this spell.”
” as for arthur, it’s the rule of an inevitable price. You can only use this spell a second ti after the price takes effect.”
antonya explained.
when he heard this, zhao xu finally understood.
he could enjoy the first swift burst, and he would not be stunned after that.
However, when he wanted to cast this spell a second ti, he had to accept the previous stun effect so that he could continue to cast this spell.
this also eliminated the possibility of him using swift burst in succession, so others could only watch him play.
but zhao xu also started to notice that most of the thods he was thinking of involved divine arts.
ordinary mages would have to go around in circles if they did not have divine arts, so it was naturally not as convenient as his dual cultivation of the divine and arcane.
But Zhao Xu imdiately realized that he was overthinking things.
how could an ordinary mage learn such a spell?
” alright, let’s do a test. ” Antonya suddenly said to Zhao Xu with a teasing smile on her face.
She took out a pair of dark red tall boots from her dinsional bag, and the soles of the boots were bright copper.
“considering the fact that you used a lesser spell, the ti you can move is very limited. therefore, this pair of instant boots will be the spoils of war for the next test.”
“it can be activated by moving. it can be used five tis a day, and it can teleport a short distance of six ters each ti.”
Zhao Xu looked at that pair of tall boots and his eyes couldn’t help but light up.
Usually, he could also use this pair of boots for short-distance teleportation. Moreover, because the activation ti was not long, he could release a “target move” spell in one round and then activate his boots to teleport.
At the critical mont, even if soone were to slash at him, he could still calmly release the spell “lesser Swift burst” and use the limited ti to activate the boots to teleport away.
this was the most primitive kiting tactic.
“Why don’t you try it?” zhao xu smiled confidently at antonya.
