Chapter 28: The Hall of Awakening

Until the next day, when Zhao Xu logged into the game by himself, he didn't explain much to Zhang Qi.

He also didn't tell Zhang Qi that he had completed the zero-level spell transcription, which was equivalent to the first sequence of becoming a player mage.

According to Zhang Qi's big mouth, knowing that he has made this progress, he has already shouted that the whole class knows about it, so that he can slap all the pretending criminals in the face.

The only thing Zhao Xu did was to pat Zhang Qi on the shoulder and tell the other party that it was fun.

The resurrection stone is the tuition fee paid by the player to Arthur, no matter how good Zhao Xu thinks, Zhang Qi still has to pay it honestly.

By the next day, when Zhao Xu went online, Antinoya arrived on time as before.

It seems that yesterday's sudden disappearance is just a very special idiopathic condition.

At this time, Zhao Xu had already selected the three first-level spells he had picked: the three spells of protection against evil, colorful spray, and magic missile.

When Antinoya saw Zhao Xu's choice, she smiled lightly: "The cost performance is good, you players are still quite discerning." ”

That's right, zero-level spells and first-level spells, which are for players to choose to learn, have long been put on the forum for discussion.

Level 0 spell mages will learn all of them, and everyone can only learn three first-level spells, and after learning them, they will get additional first-level spells according to their own intelligence adjustment value.

Then how to get second-level spells in the future is up to the mages themselves.

This also leads to the fact that Arthur's first-level spells are not a secret in the future, but at the beginning of the second level, the list of spells provided by the forum began to be missing, and some even knew only a general name, and the specific effect was completely unknown.

Analyzing the strength of various zero-level spells and first-level spells has also become one of the offline pleasures for the majority of would-be mages who can't copy zero-level spells.

Looking at Antinoya's expression now, the powerful spells that he had selected now recognized by the forum would not be far behind.

"I have scrolls for these first-level spells, so you can copy those scrolls directly."

With that, Antinoya directly took out three scrolls out of thin air and gave them to him.

Zhao Xu took it and touched it, it was all that kind of high-grade leather paper, the same as the one he had been exposed to in his previous life.

The scroll is 20cm by 30cm long, and both ends of the paper are fixed with slender strips, and then rolled inside, just like the holy decree of the costume drama, but the scroll itself records all magic words, and once the scroll is used to cast spells, those words will disappear without a trace.

A scroll can transcribe one spell or multiple spells, up to a maximum of six.

"Mentor, why did you give me the scroll instead of the spell book?" Zhao Xu said strangely.

The scroll itself is a kind of alternate spell slot that allows the player to cast spells directly without consuming spell slots.

If a player theoretically has a large number of scrolls, then he is a humanoid self-propelled cannon, the kind with unlimited endurance.

It's not like a first-hit man like a mage.

It's just that a mage can copy spells from a spell book, instead of having to copy spells from a scroll.

Even if a first-level scroll only costs 25GP, it is cheaper than the cost of copying, but it is not as good as a spell book that does not cost money.

"Just a few gold coins, I have to go out of my way to find a spell book for you, it's too much effort, just use these scrolls." Antinoya didn't care.

Listening to the words, Zhao Xu could only accept it silently.

Rich is an uncle, not to mention the person in front of him who can make 25,000 gold coins empty-handed.

"Before you transcribe these scrolls, I give you a word of advice."

Zhao Xu hurriedly pricked up his ears and listened carefully, the advice of the master of the Fa teaching, let the academicians give them basic courses in their previous lives.

"There are no useless spells, only useless mages."

"It's, forget it."

Before Zhao Xu could fully and carefully consume the subtlety of the previous sentence, he was shocked by the latter sentence.

Although he wanted to say that you were two sentences, he still thought carefully about the meaning of Antinoya's words.

"Some spells are just rubbish mages that have been researched to occupy space, and they are inherently weak. And we mages just want to find the most powerful and suitable ones for our own style from the heavenly amount of spells. ”

When Zhao Xu heard this, he could only nod honestly, and then walked back to his desk, applied those irritating plasters, and began to transcribe these spells in the same way as drawing a scoop with a gourd.

Compared with the previous transcription of zero-level spells in one go, in order to avoid the risk of spell accidents, everyone in the first-level spells studied them step by step and honestly for 24 hours.

After two days of information about the first graduated mage, many people have already inquired about it.

The other party is also the existence that has been a prodigy since he was a child.,Born with the ability to never forget.。

It's just that even so, in order to pursue the first record, the other party gave up the additional first-level spell given due to the intelligence adjustment value.

Zhao Xu himself doesn't pursue any speed, for him, it is naturally best to take one step at a time.

Unbeknownst to everyone, the training academy was Arthury's biggest comfort zone.

He wished he could stay all the time.

A character's level 1 specialization is not a prerequisite for the profession, so some players are not in a hurry to determine their specialization right away, but intend to decide on it as needed during the adventure.

Zhao Xu is different, if he doesn't learn the four powerful specialties, he will definitely not step out of Mystra's door.

For the next week, Zhao Xu was working on the big project of transcribing first-level spells every day.

It's just that he copied it, and there is no miracle of the heavenly vision unique to the protagonist's template.

Later, Zhao Xu also specially asked about the inside story of Antinoya's gossip, and determined that the mages did not necessarily have visions when they studied spells, let alone simply copy and learn the spells of individual people.

At this time, all kinds of genius players who chose mages began to appear second and third to complete their training.

When the second week of the first game had just ended, Zhao Xu had just finished learning all his free first-level spells.

At this time, the number of level 1 mages in the player is also more than a hundred.

Zhao Xu has 3 intelligence adjustment points, and the Mage Guild gives him an additional 3 free and spell transcripts.

This time, he consulted with Antinoya, and at the suggestion of the other party, he chose Mage Armor, Weakening Ray, and Shapeshifting.

The first two big road goods spells are okay, and the latter one is the kind of magic that is not transmitted.

That is, this kind of spell is not in the list of other players who can learn, only Zhao Xu, who has a personal mentor, can get it from the other party's collection.

According to Antinoia, this spell can be considered a disguised displacement spell in some cases.

Eventually, the list of spells in Zhao Xu's mind reached a stable state, and at least it would not change until he obtained the money to copy new spells or upgrades.

Level 0 Spells: Resistance, Acid Splash, Poison Detection, Magic Detection, Reading Magic, Stun, Light Dance, Flash, Illumination, Frozen Ray, Illusion, Necromancy, Fatigue Touch, Mage's Hand, Repair, Communication, Switch, Arcane Sign, Magic Trick

Level 1 Spells: Evil Protection, Rainbow Spray, Magic Missile, Mage Armor, Weakening Ray, Shapeshifting

This is just a level 1 mage, and the number of spells mastered is already 25, so it's no wonder that the mage profession in the previous life was not pleasing at all.

"Are you ready?" Antinoa said as the words on the last Transfiguration scroll disappeared.

"Prepare what?" Zhao Xu was at a loss.

"Take you to awaken and become a mage."

Hearing this, Zhao Xu's numbness and fatigue for a week suddenly disappeared, and he finally came.

"Mentor, let's go, I don't have anything to pack."

Zhao Xu hurriedly stood up, he was a lonely and impermanent poor bastard.

Even the spell books that the mages would bring with them when they caught fire were all memorized in his heart.

Seeing that Antinoya didn't turn her back to open the door of the dormitory, Zhao Xu thought that he was waiting for him to move, so he hurriedly stepped forward to open the door first.

Suddenly, Antinoya's body flashed.

In an instant, Antinoya appeared in front of Zhao Xu, and then one of her snow-white arms stretched out from the cuffs of the robe and directly grabbed Zhao Xu's collar.

Level 4 Arcane Any Gate!

Without any pose, just a spell is needed to teleport the target anywhere within range of the spell, and his shapeshifting spell is a weakened cubic version of this spell.

However, before Zhao Xu had time to think about it, he felt that after his collar was grabbed, the whole person suddenly had a pulling force.

This feeling is not unfamiliar to Zhao Xu, it is exactly what he felt when he passed through the portal.

He felt that he could resist the spell taking effect on him.

However, he is facing his own mentor, he really wants to kill himself in seconds, there is no need to be so complicated, a fireball comes, and Zhao Xu's scum is gone.

So Zhao Xu also put down his resistance and followed the guidance of the spell.

If you want to hug your thighs these days, just hold them honestly, don't always think about things.

Suddenly, in an inconspicuous bedroom in the Floating City, two figures, a man and a woman, suddenly turned into white light and disappeared.

After Zhao Xu came back to his senses in a trance.

He found himself standing in a theater-like lobby.

At the foreground, there is a throne-like silver chair with a metallic sheen.

At the same time, around the throne was the kind of magic inscription that was directly engraved, even if Zhao Xu had studied magic for a few days, he was still confused.

At the back of the lobby, the stepped seats are arranged in turn, if it weren't for the emptiness and brightness around him, otherwise Zhao Xu would have thought that he had arrived at a luxury movie theater.

The soft seats on the stairs were already occupied by many people, and the front half of the seats were full.

"Mentor, what is this?"

"Mage Awakening Ritual." Antinoya explained.

"All of Mystra and these floating cities are protected by legendary spells, which have spell restrictions on outsiders. If your identity is not infused into this legendary spell, then you new mages should not be able to successfully cast a spell in Mystra. ”

"So the awakening ritual in other towns is very simple, there is a new mage who awakens one. However, because Mystra wants to modify the Lost Lock, she can only have to perform the 'Mage Awakening Ritual' regularly every month,"

Only then did Zhao Xu react, feeling that among these people sitting there, it was a month's mage output of Mystra.

He counted it, at least hundreds or thousands, and a month was too much.

"Mentor, your Floating City is really prolific." Zhao Xu praised.

"It's not you, it's us." Antinoa corrected, "Actually, there aren't so many of them, it's because the player mage is also in a hurry, so there are so many. ”

Zhao Xu came to his senses at this time, the forum had all the information on the top ten mages, but none of them were from the magical holy capital of Mystra.

It stands to reason that the most talented players who are supposed to learn magic are all assigned here, except for those who come in through the back door of his special talent route.

Now I know that Mistra's players have to wait for the unified modification of the Mystery Lock every month before they can perform the ritual, so naturally everything is in vain.

Zhao Xu also noticed at this time that there were already many new mages sitting on their seats waiting to take turns to go up to the awakening ceremony, quietly discussing in front of the two uninvited guests.

The people present here all came over and gathered honestly step by step, like the two of them swaggering and teleporting over.

It's too much to show off the special.

Zhao Xu barely relied on the characteristics of the player's clothing and recognized that the side on the left was a group of players.

Suddenly, Zhao Xu's pupils widened a little.

He saw a beautiful girl with a calm expression and a serious sitting in the first row.

Wang Ningwei!

When Arthur arrived, the highest-ranking mage among the players, she also took advantage of the situation to become one of the top leaders of the Earth forces.

It turned out that the place where she trained her new mage teacher was Mistra.

It's at this arcane gate, in this floating city.

A few years later, Arthur faced the invasion of the Abyss and Hell, and the Earth forces sent a mission to visit the Northern Alliance, trying to make it possible for the other side to jointly protect the civilians of Earth.

Zhao Xu was a guard in the Northern Alliance at the time, and his family had already been included in the scope of protection because of Zhao Xu, and was arranged in a town near the rear.

Zhao Xu also relied on that envoy to have the opportunity to witness this lady of the sky.

It's just that at that time, his identity was just a guard at the headquarters of the Northern Alliance, at best, he was out of the category of ordinary miscellaneous soldiers, and he was considered a high-level guard.

And the other party, not to mention the aura blessing brought by the leader through the earth, just the status of a high-level mage is enough to become the guest of honor of the lords of the northern cities.

The current Wang Ningwei does not have the kind of transcendent temperament that he will see in the future, honed after a long period of exercise, just an ordinary player, sitting below and waiting to awaken on stage.

Zhao Xu suddenly remembered the legend he had heard in his previous life, Wang Ningwei had awakened to become a level 1 mage on the 20th day, and in the future, she would become an example of the majority of new mages comforting herself.

He now knows the inside story of why it dragged on for so long.

It's just that it's only been 15 days since it was counted today, so where did the 5 days go?

Could it be that it was specially added in order to exaggerate Wang Ningwei's first come?

After all, 15 days can still be squeezed into more than 100 people.

"Mentor, how many days ago was the last time." Zhao Xu asked in a low voice.

"25 days." Antinoya said.

"Didn't you say a month?"

"I still eat three meals a day on time, can't I eat only two?"

Listening to Antinoya's nonsense, Zhao Xu said angrily, "Mentor, I know how to change legendary spells so casually. ”

Rules are called rules because they are difficult to change.

"Oh, ask why." Antinoya seemed to have only now grasped the key point of Zhao Xu's problem.

However, Zhao Xu already knew that she did it on purpose.

"It's very simple, because you finished learning six first-level spells today, so arrange for everyone to awaken today in advance."
