Chapter 149: Mastery of Knowledge (2/3)
For the next few days, Zhao Xu didn't leave the space of the final scroll, and he impatiently summoned those spell books one by one to draw energy, and then re-released the spells.
In particular, some spells come at a high cost to cast on their own.
Some mages may not be able to release them a few times in their lifetime after they have finished learning.
But it's not a problem for Zhao Xu.
He is in the final scroll space, which is equivalent to an infinite spell slot, and it costs him to cast any spell.
Even some spells that required a minute or even an hour of chanting spell time, Zhao Xu could release them as long as he moved his thoughts.
But after the spell is released, the real feedback from the time the spell is cast is not fake.
He is equivalent to gaining undiscounted cast experience.
Until the back, when Antinoya returned to the scroll space and saw Zhao Xu, she didn't recognize Zhao Xu at all.
According to what she said, Zhao Xu restrained a little like a mage for the first time.
He has more of the inexplicable and indescribable background of a mage, or confidence.
And after leaving the final scroll space, Zhao Xu didn't spend too much energy, and successfully consolidated the level of the level 3 character, and was officially promoted to level 3 mage and level 2 dossier scholar.
At the same time, he also obeyed Antinoya's instructions and began to listen to more academic lectures, trying to awaken the second-level professional ability of the dossier scholar "knowledge mastery" as soon as possible.
When Zhao Xu obtains this ability, his document interpretation skills and knowledge (mystery) skills can all gain +2 nameless bonuses.
The nameless bonus is a kind of bonus that can be stacked at will, if Zhao Xu has a hundred kinds of knowledge (mystery) skills and the ability of +2 nameless bonuses, then he can completely stack the knowledge (mystery) skill bonus to 200+.
So even if this added value is better than nothing, Zhao Xu still doesn't dare to relax, and takes a lot of time out of his weekdays to give lectures on knowledge (mystery).
After Zhao Xu took the lecture tickets sent every day this time, he quietly found a corner and sat down, quietly listening to the lecturer on the stage explaining the mysterious knowledge.
Generally speaking, low-level mages mostly choose to go to the Knowledge Library to read occult books to improve their knowledge (mystical) skills.
This method is the dumbest, but also the most stable, and the most conducive to increasing the level of knowledge (mystery) skills.
However, when Zhao Xu raised the knowledge (mystery) to the upper limit of level 6 in the Knowledge Library, he still did not have the ability to "master knowledge" of the dossier.
So he was also looking forward to these lectures to trigger him.
"Who can tell what this symbol means?" At this time, one of the lecturers on the stage, Morris, who was wearing a maverick light white robe, asked.
Morris, who was already a level 5 mage in his early thirties, could barely be regarded as a small achievement even in a place like Floating City, where high-level mages gathered.
Although he is limited by the character level knowledge (mysterious) skill and can only be upgraded to level 8, it only affects his success rate of connecting to the source of knowledge.
From the age of six, Morris continued to immerse himself in various occult books, and this quality made him quite appreciated by the middle and upper levels.
After hearing Morris's question, the thirty or so novice mages and mage apprentices in the small hall were silent, obviously trapped by this question.
Although Morris is famous, coming to his lecture does not bring him a place as an assistant to stay in the floating city, so his lecture tickets are not particularly sought-after.
Therefore, when Morris usually holds lectures to share his recent research experience, he does not borrow too much space, and a small forum of 50 people is usually enough.
Zhao Xu also looked at the mark drawn by Morris on the whiteboard at this time, and did not try to retrieve it with knowledge (mysterious) skills, but thought about it on his own first.
He could appreciate that Morris's occult knowledge was very strong.
Even if Morris upgrades in the future, he doesn't need to go out of his way to study it again, and the knowledge (mysterious) level will automatically consume skill points to upgrade the moment his character is upgraded.
This is also the most admired model of the water.
According to Zhao Xu's guess, Eswig and Wang Ningwei both have this trait.
As for Zhao Xu, he could only be lucky and come first.
Seeing that no one was present, Morris had to smile wryly and shake his head, and continued to explain the origin of the entire symbol.
"This secret symbol itself is actually related to cryptography, and it was only after Master Aitch introduced it into the advanced mystical symbol system that it was slowly widely used by the mage community. Generally speaking, any mage who delves into the interpretation of texts and the occult will not miss this symbol. Morris explained slowly.
Zhao Xu looked at the occult secret contract symbol with this thirteen-fold transformation pattern, and his eyes slowly lit up.
Suddenly, a female assistant from the pulpit support came running in and whispered a few words to Morris.
After hearing the other party's words, Morris's expression changed a little, and then he showed a look of joy.
He hurriedly walked to the whiteboard, wrote an encrypted evolution of the secret deed symbol on it, and said, "I suddenly have something to deal with, and I will be back in a while." Let's do the math first. β
It's just that when he was about to walk out of the door of the pulpit, he stopped again and looked at everyone with a smile: "Of course, if someone can do it, then he doesn't have to listen to the lecture tonight, he can leave first." β
Then Morris stuffed the note with the answer to the female assistant and left.
When Morris's footsteps gradually faded away, many mage apprentices who were just here to stamp up their qualifications couldn't help but complain.
Just looking at the female assistant standing at the door of the pulpit and monitoring everyone, the mage's voice was still lowered.
No one was afraid of a female assistant, but no one dared to offend a level 5 mage easily.
In order to urge the mage apprentices to receive different aspects of education, the floating city requires the mage apprentices to provide enough stamped lecture tickets every week.
One of the reasons why many mage apprentices come to Morris's lectures is also that there is a high possibility that Morris stamped the lecture tickets.
At this time, after Zhao Xu glanced at the question, he directly got up and packed his things and prepared to go back, he already had a clue in the ability of "knowledge mastery", and planned to discuss it with Antinoya.
It's just that when Zhao Xu walked to the door, the female assistant who obeyed Morris's orders stretched out her hand to stop him, "This student, Master Morris hasn't come back yet, please wait." β
For them, the orders of a level 5 mage should be strictly enforced.
Zhao Xu originally wanted to say that he didn't need a lecture ticket stamp, but just looking at the appearance of the female assistant, he was completely a ghost.
He didn't say much, just walked over to the whiteboard and picked up the pen.
The mage apprentices in the audience originally thought that Zhao Xu was going to write the answer directly, but he didn't expect Zhao Xu to stop and fall into deep thought, and couldn't help laughing in a low voice.
I haven't heard of a slap in the face and have to be in a hurry.
Just slowly, the laughter faded away.
Zhao Xu didn't even have a calculation process, so he directly wrote the final answer.
The female assistant who was holding the note against the answers on the whiteboard was stunned.
Professor Morris gave her this note to save someone from fooling her with the wrong answer, and did not expect anyone to make it.
When Zhao Xu walked to Antinoya's office on the seventh floor of the obelisk, he was also a little stunned.
Because the moment he made that question, his dynamic panel showed a message -
[Adventurer's Midsummer Awakening "Knowledge Mastery" ability, knowledge (mystery) and document interpretation skills gain +2 bonus]
These days, Zhao Xu faintly feels that his brain is more flexible.
It's just that he also knows that it will take ten and a half months for his intelligence to arrive, so this kind of clearer improvement in thinking makes him a little confused.
After Zhao Xu pushed open the door, he saw Antinoya standing there staring at the skeleton armor.
And Antinoya turned around and saw Zhao Xu at this time, and said with a hint of indescribable meaning: "It seems that you have already obtained that ability, and you don't have to go to the lecture?" β
Zhao Xu temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart and nodded yes.
Antinoa, on the other hand, walked over and handed him a letter.
Zhao Xu took it and looked at it, feeling a little unbelievable.
"Lectures on occult knowledge?" Zhao Xu asked.
If it's just an ordinary lecture, it's nothing.
It's just that the name of the lecturer at the bottom of this lecture has one name crossed out, and then the name "Midsummer" is rewritten on it.
When did he become qualified to give lectures to others?
"Sometimes it's like this, listening to others may not be able to understand it, but explaining it to others yourself will trigger it. Although I didn't expect you to awaken this ability right now, but the lecture has already been arranged, so you have to go too. β
Antinoa chuckled.
"The time for the lecture is tonight. Don't miss the time, anyway, it's just a level 1 mage, you will definitely be able to control the scene. β
When Zhao Xu heard this, he didn't immediately doubt himself.
In fact, he has a level 6 knowledge (mystery) skill level, which is the upper limit of a level 3 character, as the skill level can only be 3 levels higher than the character level.
However, many mages who are even level 6 or 7 may not have a high level of knowledge (mystery) as Zhao Xu if they do not have enough occult skills.
Compared to a quasi-spell, "knowledge" is much more ethereal.
Knowledge, intelligence, and spells are the three pillars that support the strength of mages, but sometimes the pillar of spells is too strong, and even overshadows the brilliance of the other two.
"What is the theme of my lecture on occult knowledge?"
Although facing the players in the game or Arthur's natives, Zhao Xu still didn't dare to despise this lecture, and immediately prepared to start preparing for the class.
"Don't worry, the lecturer who was originally scheduled for the lecture was injured by the explosion while conducting spell research, so I need you to replace him. The materials prepared by the other party are on the table, you can just look at them. β
Antinoa said as she continued to look at the armor.
Zhao Xu walked over to Antinoya's plain desk, there was indeed a much thicker material on it, he picked it up and took a lookβon the diversity of first-level spells.
First-level spells?
To say something pompous-
The first-level spells mastered by the Nine Ring Mages in the Floating City may not be as comprehensive as him Zhao Xu.
It turned out that this was the reason why Antinoia asked him to take the place of this lecture.
