Chapter 315: Earth Passage
Hearing Lynch's words, Zhao Xu also smiled, but he was in a very happy mood.
From the beginning of entering the game, most of the people in the floating city he came into contact with were very polite to him, and sometimes they even directly gave him resources, and everyone who could cooperate cooperated.
For example, the goddess priest Archbishop Sosi that he met in the Sacred Heart Cathedral, the other party directly gave him the holy emblem that he had worn for decades, and Zhao Xu also used the holy emblem to avoid the trouble of explaining his identity.
Even the minerals of Falling Star Town, he also entrusted Archbishop Sosi to directly put in the Mithril Crystal for him to increase the Mithril production of the silver veins.
And Lynch in front of him was indeed very polite to him before, but now he showed his shrewd side, allowing Zhao Xu to regain the familiarity he had with the residents of Arthur in his previous life.
"Mage Lynch, I don't know what you need?" As long as the other party's request is not too excessive, Zhao Xu will naturally agree.
Now he is also an equivalent level 5 mage, and he has enough resources between the two sides to communicate and complement each other.
And the fat mage Lin Qi heard that Zhao Xu did not object, and also said happily: "Well, Mr. Midsummer, can you hand me the badge on your chest first?" ”
When Zhao Xu heard this, he thought that the other party was about the next need in this regard, but he didn't say much, and took it off and handed it over.
But if the mage who appears in this floating city can run away from the monk and can't run the temple, Zhao Xu doesn't have to worry about the funny thing of snatching the badge and running away.
After Lynch took it, he noticed that Zhao Xu's mage badge had changed to three concentric circles, which meant that the other party had been registered as an official three-ring mage.
In order to take over the task released by the frost sword, Zhao Xu updated his identity information to the latest status in the affairs hall of the association.
At that time, he also received the corresponding mage benefits by the way.
The Mage Guild was able to become the largest mage organization on the Arthur continent, and in addition to the fact that it was the organization with the largest number of legendary Mages of Arthur, it also had a perk that attracted countless ordinary mages.
All mages will be able to request from the Guild to transcribe the two highest rings that can currently be cast when leveling up.
Therefore, Zhao Xu received the promotion benefits from level 2 to level 5 at one time, which were two one-ring spells at level 2, four second-ring spells at level 3 and level 4, and two three-ring spells at level 5.
According to the current transcription price of the association, each ring is 50 gold coins, and the cost of a three-ring spell transcription is 150 gold coins.
Zhao Xu got a total of eight spell transcription borrowing fee vouchers from the first ring to the third ring with a total value of 800 gold coins.
And he himself has mastered all the one-to-three-ring spells, so he can completely resell the voucher, and the association will also subscribe to the voucher anyway.
Even if Mage Lynch just asked for spell transcripts or money, Zhao Xu could use those spell transcription vouchers as compensation.
However, after Lin Qi, who was sitting opposite, saw Zhao Xu's badge clearly, his whole body shook suddenly, and the three concentric circles directly shocked him like a mysterious spell.
At the same time, after being touched by him, these concentric circles began to fluctuate one by one, showing their authenticity.
A cold sweat broke out directly on Lynch's back, and after the transformation of the pulpit that day, he already understood that the other party was an Earth Adventurer.
It's just that this midsummer mage was only one ring at that time, and he only became a three-ring mage in just over a month?
Even if they take the crash route themselves, this method is inevitably a bit too fast.
According to the elders he heard from his family, even if these Earth adventurers had enough talent themselves, it would take a year to reach the Three Rings.
Now someone is showing him a month to become a three-ring mage?
If he released this news, I am afraid that the entire low-ring mages in the Floating City would be boiling.
The mages of Floating City are well aware of the reasons why players can be quick balls, and they also know the hidden dangers behind this approach.
Players skip years or even decades of accumulation, and unless they are talented, they will need to pay a huge price to repay the jumps in the future.
The most obvious point is that it will be much more difficult to break through the level in the future, especially when it comes to the fifth or sixth rings.
It's just that the man in front of him has three rings in two months, and the fifth or sixth rings in a year later may not be difficult, right?
Lynch immediately thought of a myriad of speculations that mattered at stake.
In the Mage Association, there are also Arthur geniuses who have completed training and promotion in a few days and a month.
And these candidates will be taken care of and become the key training objects of legendary mages in the future.
Lynch also secretly sighed at the moment, no wonder the guild would give a shining Mithril badge to a player.
It turned out that the senior management of the association had seen through the talent of the man in front of him with a discerning eye a month ago.
No wonder they are giants, and he is the little brother.
After Lin Qi thought it through, he respectfully handed the badge in his hand back to Zhao Xu, and then said politely: "That's fine." ”
"Master Midsummer, our association has not held a meeting for the past two days. In this way, if you are free the day after tomorrow, if you have, you can go with me to the association to extract the data file. If it's really inconvenient, I'll transfer it to your dormitory. ”
Lynch looked at Zhao Xu as he spoke.
"This? Remuneration? Zhao Xuzheng wondered how the other party skipped his question asking about compensation.
"Oh, you've just given me a closer look at the magic of this badge, and that's the biggest reward." Lynch said and made a standard mage salute.
"......" Although Zhao Xu didn't understand why the attitude of Master Lynch in front of him had suddenly changed so much, he could only be silent.
It stands to reason that the other party knew that he had a shining Mithril badge from the beginning.
Later, after knowing that he was from the mage family of the player and not Mystra, his attitude calmed down a lot, but suddenly he became so respectful again.
As for the other party's suggestion, Zhao Xu considered that the place where he lived now was in the obelisk, and it might not be easy for the other party to come in, so he said directly: "Master Lynch, then I'll go to you in the background." ”
Lynch nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, and handed over the note with his contact information and address by the way.
After Zhao Xu took it, suddenly Antinoya's voice came from his ears again.
"Midsummer, there's a spell study for you to see."
------------------
After a while, Zhao Xu appeared in a mysterious research hall.
This location is located in the underground of the "Hall of Truth", the core building of the Floating City, where Zhao Xu once lifted the Namorin Stone Tablet and obtained the corresponding advanced secret transmission.
And the Temple of Truth above the head is said to be the place with the highest density of legendary Arthurian mages.
The Council of the Priests' Association, the highest authority, is also permanently located in the Hall of Truth.
According to everyone, it is only in that place that you can see the seven giants of the Mage Association appear together at the same time.
When Zhao Xuchu saw this research hall, he almost thought it was a football stadium without stands.
However, they are all in the corridor on the second floor, and there is only a simple row of anti-fall railings in front of them, which is very rudimentary, or the design did not consider the need for bystanders at the beginning.
And under the venue, only a quarter of the place is placed mysterious alchemy devices, many of which are tightly wrapped, and then the most in the field are mysterious metal spheres.
At the top of the research hall is the Alchemy Loader, which can mobilize the heavy alchemy devices at any time, although the mage himself can solve it with spells.
At this time, there were dozens of spellcasters in the venue who were debugging the work, but Zhao Xu was secretly frightened, because the researchers below the venue were at least mages above the seventh ring.
Some of the assistants' work is carried out by the golems and invisible servants in the field.
Feeling the solemnity and seriousness of the atmosphere in the venue, Zhao Xu also stood quietly beside Antinoya, and at this time, there were also casters with the same number of researchers below standing in the corridor on the second floor.
It's just that they, like Zhao Xu, are wearing robes and hoods, hiding their appearance.
Zhao Xu was a little suspicious of the existence of the giants of the association among those mysterious people.
More of his attention, though, was on the eight plates of the entire Mithril metal drawing board erected at the front of the field. The eight panels are finely carved with intricate ritual circles, and many parts are even high-precision miniature carvings.
Apparently the rituals involved are extremely complex and profound.
"Mentor, the spell research below seems to be of a very high level." Zhao Xu used a psychic link to communicate with Antinoya.
Even the lowest-level researchers are the Seven Rings, and the other support personnel would rather use golems than let the mid- and low-level mages intervene. Even Antinoa gave him the key to pass, and he had to go through three or four tests before he entered here.
"Naturally, they're going to have to build a temporary passage to the other multiverses." Antinoya said.
I see.
It's such a big move.
Zhao Xu could only sigh like this at this time.
To be honest, Arthur probably has the capital to undertake this research work in the Mage Guild.
Zhao Xu has already understood that the research is basically for the whole people to cross a year later.
And he looked at those miniature carved ritual circles, and he already had a slight guess. It was only after listening to Antinoa's statement that new questions sprung up in him.
"But I think this ritual is more like re-evoking the passage than directly creating it, right?"
Antinoya raised her eyebrows slightly, "That's right, because there has always been an energy channel, and we are now using this energy channel to materialize into a material channel." ”
After Zhao Xu listened, countless thoughts instantly turned in his mind, which confirmed his thoughts even more.
The fact that they were able to project it means that there is an energy channel between Arthur and the earth.
There is even a 20-minute cooldown time limit for going online after going offline, which is probably because of the limitation of this energy channel.
Since there is an energy channel itself, the Mage Guild can also be used easily.
Then, one of the researchers in charge of the project below made an inquiring gesture to a mysterious figure in the second-floor hallway.
"It's time to start the charging test." Antinoia reminded.
Zhao Xu's eyes widened suddenly, carefully observing the situation of the eight versions of the Mithril panel, and all the energy channels would inevitably be activated through this ritual array.
Suddenly, countless stars began to converge and landed on the first version of the Mithril panel, and the energy began to fill the hollow space where the entire circle had been carved and hollowed out like a trickle.
Eventually, one by one, the Mithril panels lit up and sprinted all the way to the seventh panel.
It's just that Zhao Xu instantly felt a vibration all over his body, and then his vision began to blur.
