The Truth of Magic

600 The hidden cave, the source of the undead

“Do you still have a lot of these wands?” The service staff who was waiting for the Barbarian to return the wand suddenly asked.

As a non-player, he became an expert in the skill of ” using magic devices ” after transmigrating.

even human talents would choose ” magic talent ” in order to be able to be enhanced in skill checks.

most of the people who had this specialty were unable to cast spells, which was ironic to some extent.

While everyone else was shocked by the magical item that Zhao Xu had taken out, he saw something different.

“That’s right.” Zhao Xu didn’t deny this.

In private, he understood that he had already achieved the second purpose he had accidentally given birth to.

In this world, the ” rumors ” that the public had seen could be spread faster than official announcements.

“Then I’m relieved.”

The service staff wiped the sweat off his forehead. it seems like the news that the higher-ups have sent people to collect a large amount of Life Recovery materials is not false.

He heaved a sigh of relief and said, ” no wonder they arranged for us to use up these rejuvenation wands. They really are not in a hurry.

As the staff member said this, everyone from the Barbarian iron on the stage to the audience below nodded silently, as if they understood something.

However, everyone’s gaze on Zhao Xu became a little sharper. A normal player wouldn’t even be able to pull out a few of these wands. At most, they would prepare a few. No one would be able to pull out an entire sequence of these wands like Zhao Xu.

Only the core members of the large merchant associations who were in charge of transporting magical items would carry these.

Furthermore, it was stored in a ‘bag of holding’. The meaning behind this was even more self-evident.

The fact that Yanan’s higher-ups could let the man in front of them transport a large number of magic recovery items with a multi-dimensional bag showed that he was at least an expert.

Basically, after a few days, Zhao Xu would have to make some more arrangements, and all of Yannan’s citizens would know that Yannan didn’t lack medical supplies.

If they encountered another desperate battle, they could be more daring.

It would not be like the first battle, where many players held the thought of preserving their strength and were afraid.

Because if they died, not only would his family fall from the clouds to the deep valley, his rare opportunity to rise up would also turn into clouds.

Even if he didn’t die, his injuries meant that he would lose the initiative and might miss the key “Dragon follower “.

Since ancient times, the most unfortunate thing was the group of striver who fell before the victory of the revolution.

At this moment, the Barbarian steel dude saw that Zhao Xu was actually taking a risk by taking out these magic wands to help him with his teaching, so he couldn’t help but make a gesture of respect in the Barbarian class.

Zhao Xu just laughed and then quietly walked off the stage. All he had to do was wait for the rumors to spread.

The people would help him paint today’s scene as if it were real.

———————-

In a short while, Zhao Xu crossed over to the border of the Yanan area. There was a huge black hole in this area, and it looked like it was endless from afar. No one knew where the underground hole led to.

At this time, Yanan’s guards had already sealed off the scene and sent people here to prevent undead creatures from rushing out.

“Is there already a team that has entered?” Zhao Xu waved around a badge that represented the Southern Cross research team to show his fake identity.

He had at least dozens of such name tags in his pocket, and even a stack of employment documents with the main body and the name missing.

“No, I didn’t,” The captain of the guards who was in charge of guarding this place shook his head at Zhao Xu, his superior.

“No one has dared to go in until now?” Zhao Xu was surprised.

As far as he knew, there were more than a dozen relatively independent large player guilds in Yanan. They were not as united as Yanan stars and were all pursuing their own independence.

Or it could be said that they were also secretly snatching people from Yanan and actively absorbing members.

Everyone knew that Yanan was likely to be the one who made the decision in zhongxia.

However, there was also the possibility of division and even a joint governance.

So, these tougher player guilds also had the thought of forming their own guilds in the future. Even if they were taken in by Zhao Xu, it would be easier to negotiate with them if they had more people.

This was also one of the reasons why Zhao Xu needed to use his smurf account to show off Yanan’s resources.

That was why the players ‘guilds had yet to take action when they were “exploring” a cave that was “related” to the massive scale of the undead tide. They were too slow.

Do you really think that you can have a smooth journey by following Yanan’s officials?

In fact, Zhao Xu wasn’t even in a hurry to get there first because he was thinking of saving someone on the way and taking them in later.

“Sir, the current environment is not like the Yanan environment you were in before you transmigrated. There are no Lifestones for you to play around with. Now that everyone has a life, naturally no one would dare to enter these dangerous areas.”

The captain of the guards at the entrance of the cave bent over and explained to Zhao Xu. Two weeks after transmigrating, he was quickly promoted to a non-standard “mercenary” with more than ten years of experience as a bodyguard.

Although he rose quickly, he also lost his potential.

“Yes, that’s true.” Zhao Xu nodded.

However, the next moment, his gaze on the other party became much colder. why did you lie to me that no one went down secretly? ”

“Are you afraid that I’ll think you’re neglecting your duty?”

“Or have you been bribed? That’s why you’re making up lies to fool me, since I’ll be finished off by the team down there anyway?”

Zhao Xu’s ability to read people’s expressions and words wasn’t just for show.

This skill immediately awakened his instinctive suspicion.

The captain’s face turned pale, and the 20 – 30 militia standing near him looked flustered. For a moment, their eyes were wandering between him and the captain.

“You’re wondering how I know you’re lying?”

Zhao Xu shook his head. I have to say that your ‘Bluff’ actually passed. But it still hasn’t passed my level of intelligence.”

...

“What you’ve said is indeed reasonable, but it sounds more like an excuse given to you by the person who went down. So you’re one of them?”

As he spoke, Zhao Xu started to size her up. so, they’ve even thought of a reason for you to explain yourself. It’s a pity that everyone has a different field of thinking. They won’t be able to notice that this reason is suitable for them, but it’s not suitable for you to say it.

“That’s why I was a little suspicious, but you were immediately exposed.”

At this moment, Zhao Xu was playing with the wand in his hand. Even though there wasn’t a single person following him, in the eyes of these guards, he was scarier than an Army of thousands.

Because he was dressed like a mage.

It was a class that had a terrifying upper and lower limit.

“Forget it, I’m too lazy to waste my breath on you guys.”

Zhao Xu waved his staff gently and looked at the captain of the guards as if nothing had happened. I’m the only one who can save you. Tell me what happened to the team that just went down.

Zhao Xu’s suggestion sounded very reasonable, and he instantly cast the level 3 spell, suggestion, into the other party’s mind.

Zhao Xu still had to spend a lot of time and effort to sort out his thoughts and memories, so he just used hints to make the other party think that he was telling the truth. That way, the other party would be able to convince herself to tell him the truth.

In fact, he was telling the truth. He had the right to pardon anyone.

...

it’s the ‘Azure’ Union. We’ve sent a team of 20 people to sneak into the underground to explore. There are also 20 guards who are resting here. It was an order from the higher-ups that I lied to them. The captain of the guards said with a dazed look.

“Truly foolish!”

“Human restraint!”

zhao xu didn’t say a word. he immediately cast a spell that made it seem as if his opponent’s entire body had been fixed in place.

Then, he said to the guards who were still confused, “come here and redeem yourselves. Tie him up and take him back. Then, arrange for someone to come and change the guard.

“I’ve already sent a message. You can also bet with me if you can escape in time.”

But when the guards saw how confused their Captain was, they lost all their courage and immediately ran over to carry out Zhao Xu’s orders in fear.

Then, Zhao Xu looked at the bottomless hole and shook his head.

Letting twenty of Yanan’s guards follow them down was naturally to make them cannon fodder.

He was really borrowing soldiers from him.

An underground cave that could contain tens of millions of undead creatures was a very serious matter, so Zhao Xu didn’t even bring his men with him. He was afraid that something would happen to them and he wouldn’t be able to save them in time.

He didn’t expect that the reason that these union members had fabricated was so reasonable, but he didn’t listen to it.

they only had one life.

He wasn’t like Zhao Xu, who still had a death contract with him and had two lives.

“Peeking Demon Eye!”

In an instant, 34 semi-realistic magic balls appeared out of thin air in front of them and then descended according to the directions that Zhao Xu was using to cast the spell.

These small balls had a normal vision range of 40 meters, and they were extremely fragile. As long as they were hit by a Level-1 Warrior, they would be destroyed on the spot.

Many magic orbs were miniature constructs, and their Apple-sized bodies had the advantage of a Level-8 body in terms of defense. They also had perfect flying abilities, and were good at hiding (+16). It was not a big problem for them to secretly detect enemies.

After Zhao Xu gave them some instructions, these magic eyes would follow them.

Only when they returned to Zhao Xu’s hands would they be able to see what they were seeing in Zhao Xu’s mind.

and they couldn’t be more than 1.5 kilometers away from zhao xu.

In a real mage battle, mages would only attack for an instant. They might just break down each other’s movements, and then one side would be killed before they could react.

He then waited for the activation sequence.

Then, they would compete in their preparations for the ‘accident’.

And before that, the most important thing was to prepare for the “intelligence battle.”

Know yourself and know your enemy. This was the reason why divination was so important.

But in the next moment, Zhao Xu’s mind went blank.

All of his spying eyes were gone.
