Chapter 179: Midsummer's Spell Notes (2/4)

After hearing Zhao Xu's request, the tall and thin man Andy woke up like a dream, he hurriedly stretched out his hand and groped on the ground, but because the mirror was empty.

"Then I'll do it." Zhao Xu saw that the man named Andy was so nervous for some reason, so he simply used the "Mage's Hand" to let the black book fly into his hand.

At this time, the young men and women also watched this scene silently, even if they lived in Mystra, every time they saw these spells, they could recall the sighing eyes of their parents when they realized that they had not become a mage or a priest.

After Zhao Xu controlled the book and flew into his hand, he didn't rush to open it, but looked at the man Andy with questioning eyes.

Waiting for the other party to give him some additional information.

For example, there is a magic book in the legendary library, which is also a magic item called "Scroll of Unknown Origin".

As long as the faction matches, reading it will also give you a +5 performance bonus in the knowledge test.

Reading that scroll at the same time can increase over time, and you can get a corresponding boost. But when you read the scrolls, you're also on an adventure. Every hour can be eaten by the scrolls, from insanity, to being cursed, and even becoming a ghost.

Therefore, for books of unknown origin, Zhao Xu will not open them immediately.

And Andy looked at Zhao Xu's translucent eyes falling on him, and then thought of the other party's terrifying identity, he couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly explained: "I don't know the name of this book, I found it from the family's treasure." All I know is that my ancestors ventured out of a mysterious tomb a long time ago. It's just that after the ancestor came back from the adventure, he died of his injuries soon after, so this book has been sealed. ”

"Is there any special effect?" Zhao Xu asked, the mysterious texts in the ancient tombs recorded these primitive rituals, which sounded reasonable.

At this time, Andy sat up cross-legged, ignoring the rubble on the ground, and began to recall: "My ancestors took it to the mages for identification, and determined that it was actually a magic item. As for that effect—"

At this time, Andy couldn't help but look at the book with a look of trepidation, and said, "Even the words recorded on it will have spirituality." ”

After Zhao Xu heard this, his heart moved, "You mean that the summoning ceremony just now was copied by yourself?" ”

Andy's face grew paler and he nodded, "That ritual we saw in a mysterious shop on Central Avenue Mistra that sold items from ancient ruins. Out of curiosity, I transcribed the ritual on the stone tablet. Later, after Lisa's accident, I thought that when I went to the shop after the ritual was actually performed, the slate had already been bought by the mage. ”

"The first requirement for the ritual to be performed is to make the mantra from which the ritual is transcribed spiritual. That's why I deliberately pulled out this book from my family's collection. ”

Zhao Xu listened to the other party's words, which was quite logical.

As for spirituality, he probably understood what it meant, that is, he had to use the kind of ink quill that was reserved for copying spells, and at the same time write in arcane script.

I didn't think that the book in his hand actually had the same effect, wouldn't it be equivalent to an alternative "blessing book"?

Can you transcribe spells without materials?

It's just that this book doesn't seem to be easy to copy, and a ninth-level spell is going to take up nine pages of space, which is much lower than the legendary 1,000-page blessing book.

It's no different from that kind of ordinary spell book at all, it's just that it saves the cost of materials.

However, Zhao Xu also made up his mind, and when he turned around, he copied some of the core spells that the association was open to buy and learn, and then took the full books to sell.

At this time, Zhao Xu directly took out the "Mechanical Goggles" that Antinoya gave him before, and cast a "detection magic" on this classic book on the spot.

Suddenly, the light of the detection magic was transformed through the goggles and directly integrated into the text.

[Adventurer Midsummer casts "Detection Magic" and obtains the "Identification Effect" through the "Trap Goggles.] ”】

Suddenly, the effect of the classics was directly displayed in front of his eyes.

Zhao Xu read the past carefully, but couldn't help but be stunned.

I secretly thought, is it difficult to upgrade the appraisal technique, or will there be a certain failure rate if I am firm?

However, he suppressed the doubts in his heart and opened this book directly, and at this time, nearly half of the book had already recorded various contents.

There are a few simple pages of notes on the male ancestors who brought this book out of the mysterious tomb, and it is estimated that it is these contents that make this book not become a funerary object, but is preserved as an ancestral manuscript.

Most of the later ones are some scattered notes from the ancestors of the men's family, some of them write their own poetry works, and some of them paint various ritual magic arrays, but Zhao Xu looks like they are all made up blindly.

Turning all the way to the middle, the last page with handwriting, and sure enough, a series of ritual circles, various ritual rituals that need to be prepared, and the corresponding recitation of incantations are written on it.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but glance at the man Andy, this kid can write these down, and he doesn't know how many times he has run to that store.

And the five people who were kneeling on the ground didn't dare to say anything easily at this time, and waited for Zhao Xu to check the classic.

They were also worried in their hearts, lest Zhao Xu and the others judge that they were collecting heretical books of evil gods, and then the real crime would be added to the rank, and even their respective families would be implicated.

And after Andy told Zhao Xu all the ins and outs at this time, he also thought of this consequence, and his face was even paler than the four people who experienced a life and death crisis.

In the end, after Zhao Xu roughly flipped through it, he determined that this ritual was probably one of the ancient summoning rituals, and then provoked the creatures from the other world.

It's just that this group of young people was unlucky this time and provoked evil creatures, which is not a big problem.

He reckoned that he would be able to find the corresponding ritual when he went back and searched through the Legendary Library.

Originally, when Zhao Xu saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh, there was nothing to gain from this operation, he could only do good deeds.

However, Zhao Xu, who had just finished performing the identification technique and learned that this classic book was different, then pressed his mind and whispered to Andy: "Then what are you going to do with this book?" ”

After Andy heard Zhao Xu's words, as if he was frightened, he almost jumped up, he quickly shook his head and said, "I don't want this book, I plan to throw it into the bonfire and burn it later." ”

"I feel like there are some secrets hidden in this book." Zhao Xu nodded and said, "Then I'll handle it for you?" ”

After hearing Zhao Xu's words, the five people who knew that there was a turnaround hurriedly nodded and said that they would let Zhao Xu arrange it.

At this time, Zhao Xu didn't bother to say anything more to this group of dead youths, and explained that the other party would remember to go to the Goddess Church to worship after going back, and after clearing his bad luck, he let them leave.

Seeing that the five people seemed to regard him as a plague god, and ran away in a hurry, Zhao Xu hurriedly said: "Take this bag of things away, go back and bury it properly." ”

Only then did the two sturdy men retreat and drag the dead goat away.

After the five people disappeared from sight, Zhao Xu gently tapped the ring of the "Invisible Ring", and suddenly his whole person, along with the book in his hand, disappeared.

Zhao Xu also left the bonfire directly, walked to the position near the tombstone group, and sat down with peace of mind.

On the earth, Zhao Xu definitely didn't have the courage to do such a thing.

It's just that now he has a holy emblem on his body, and he is an underground thing, and I'm afraid that he is almost the same.

There really appeared a necromancer to pull out the undead creatures underground, and Zhao Xu also had a way to disperse them back.

Of course, if there is a villain buried under this ground or something, and what is activated is a "Demon Soul Corpse" that challenges level 9, then he still has to honestly avoid the limelight.

Two fireballs can kill an undead creature with an average health of 90 HP.

Next, Zhao Xu also began to open the book in his hand.

When he appraised it just now, he suddenly found that this classic actually had an effect.

It's just that it's not more than 100 pages.

Strictly speaking, it has an infinite number of pages.

This kind of book with countless pages, Zhao Xu has seen a lot, many magic classics have this effect, itself is more like a retrieval device, when thinking of key words, the corresponding content of the book emerges.

I don't know who Andy found to identify the ancestor back then, and he actually missed such an important effect.

Books with unlimited pages are definitely worth a lot of money.

There have also been mages who have used this kind of book with infinite pages as a spell book, but the spells will interfere with each other and become unrecognizable.

The most famous of these is the "Scroll of Ancient Knowledge" created by the second generation of the goddess of magic, modeled after the final scroll, but this booklet is still missing.

And after even the goddess of magic failed, naturally no one in the future tried to use this kind of infinite page book as a spell book anymore.

And Zhao Xu looked at the book at the moment, gently flipped to the book cover, and added a paragraph to the book: Midsummer's Spell Notes.

Suddenly, this black book, which had never been unusual, burst into colorful light.
