The Truth of Magic

109 chapter 109 floating disc

As soon as Zhao Xu finished speaking, everyone looked at him in a daze. They didn’t expect this to be the result.

” zhongxia, actually ... ” fengye quickly stood up to ease the atmosphere.

but zhao xu had already stood up and he shook his head. ” “Everyone has their own choices, and they have to pay the price for their own choices. as long as we know the price we have to pay, we don’t have to force ourselves to convince anyone.”

After Fengye heard this, the words ” at most it’s just a Lifestone ” in his heart were swallowed back.

Zhao Xu wasn’t trying to convince them with his words. He was trying to convince himself.

After a while, Fengye turned around and glanced at his three teammates in turn. He understood a little from everyone’s nods.

zhongxia, the four of us plan to stay. After all, we accepted this mission from the start. But don’t worry, we know the price we have to pay. I’ll do my best to protect my teammates.

when fengye said this, he suddenly felt much better in his heart.

zhao xu’s words just now were also telling fengye that as long as fengye and the others could accept the risk and the price, he wouldn’t say anything more about it.

he was afraid that he would be so excited that he would charge in without looking back.

“Then I’ll take my leave first.” Zhao Xu said calmly. All of his luggage was in a convenient bag, so he didn’t really need to pack anything.

“Hey, hey, brother zhongxia, it’s raining outside?” the priest said.

but zhao xu had already stood up and was walking out of the tent with his back to them. “there hasn’t been a spellcaster in this world who has died from the rain.”

“mr. zhongxia, here’s your reward.” noah finally spoke.

“just take it to the wizard association in the big town. just say that i can accept zhongxia, who’s been handed over to mistra.”

By this time, Zhao Xu had already pulled open the tent flap and left. His voice could be heard faintly from outside.

The guards outside were all looking for a corner to take shelter from the rain. in order to set off at any time, the caravan had only set up a tent for noah and the others to use during the day.

when the guards saw him come out, they didn’t know that zhao xu had already decided to leave, so they all nodded at him in a friendly manner.

Zhao Xu’s success in knocking out tie Shi the other day had already been acknowledged by everyone.

even if noah died now, with zhao xu’s face, he would be able to revive the rest of his troops.

This was the natural trait of the people of Arthur to follow the strong.

it was just that the air was so stuffy before midsummer, so the storm would be so turbulent.

Zhao Xu looked at the torrential rain pouring down from the sky and the countless small bowls of water that had been smashed into the ground. He suddenly felt that the power of nature was also very unpredictable.

and what level was the magic that could drive the power of nature and turn it into one’s own power?

It was a pity that he was not a high-level mage, or he would have been able to stop the rain.

as zhao xu thought about this, he took out a raincoat from his backpack.

this cloak was the one that antonya had placed in his pocket at the start.

Although the cloak did not have any magical abilities, the outer layer was specially made to be waterproof. With the special material, it could be used as a raincoat.

at the same time, zhao xu also took out an oil-paper umbrella. the few guards who were looking at him were a little dumbfounded. they didn’t think that zhao xu’s backpack could hide an umbrella.

it was all thanks to antonya for giving him an umbrella, so zhao xu couldn’t bring himself to go back and borrow an oil-paper umbrella.

however, this place was near nanyu forest and was surrounded by muddy ground that had not been explored yet. under the heavy rain, even the horses could sink into the pit at any time, let alone pedestrians.

zhao xu estimated that even if he used the level 1 spell ” summon mount ” to summon a horse, it wouldn’t be of any use.

But the moment Zhao Xu decided to leave, he had already thought of a plan.

He had already copied down quite a few useful spells from the scroll that Antonya had given him the other day.

Zhao Xu immediately took out a small glass bottle from his pocket. It was filled with sticky silver-white Mercury.

he pried open the small opening of the bottle and let a drop of mercury fall onto the ground. at the same time, he began to chant an incantation.

The mercury that had just fallen to the ground suddenly turned into a light smoke and turned into an invisible force field floating plate against the heavy rain.

This slightly concave force field disc was suspended in the air about a meter from the ground.

zhao xu used his mind to control the disc, and the slightly concave surface of the disc that could originally hold liquid became flat. this way, it wouldn’t accumulate any more rain.

Zhao Xu reached out his hand and pressed down on the edge of the floating disc, then he stepped onto it.

With his will, the floating disc also moved forward, like a magnetic levitation vehicle.

the guards around them looked at zhao xu’s spell in a daze. they didn’t think that the great spellcaster would have this kind of ability.

the level 1 arcane spell ” floating disc ” was originally developed by spellcasters to be used as a cart. it could carry items and could carry about 90 pounds for every level of the spellcaster. especially after the fourth-level spell ” advanced floating disc ” was developed, even the first-level spell ” floating disc ” was promoted to the point where it could carry people.

Zhao Xu’s current carrying of the Ain stone was equivalent to a level 3 spellcaster, so the floating disc could carry a living thing that weighed around 270 pounds. Even if he were to carry a child, it wouldn’t be a problem.

At the same time, the spell’s duration had also become three hours long. Perhaps they could still survive this storm.

because he was floating in the air, zhao xu didn’t get any mud on him.

zhao xu had intentionally learned this spell in the past because he wanted to gain the ability to levitate for a short period of time before he could get his level 3 flying spell.

After the incident in the underground mine where he had to climb through the trapdoor trap with great difficulty, Zhao Xu immediately learned this spell after he came out.

Zhao Xu was holding an oil-paper umbrella as he walked along the edge of Nanyu forest.

Now that he had left the caravan, he didn’t need to hide during the day or travel at night or avoid the main road.

he had a certificate from the wizard association in his pocket, so he had a smooth journey wherever he went.

This was also the reason why Zhao Xu didn’t bother to go back to the Association in Crescent Town and asked them to send him to a Big Town.

he would be able to reach there in less than a day and a half by walking, and it might take two or three days for the officials of the association to coordinate the procedures.

however, the floating disc was still slower than a horse, so its speed was about the same as zhao xu’s own.

and zhao xu just wanted to look cool and leave first. after he walked some distance away, he started to look around to see if there were any places that could take shelter from the rain.

however, his vision was also greatly suppressed by the torrential rain.

suddenly, zhao xu vaguely saw a passerby standing in the rain with his arms open as if he was welcoming the gift of life.

as he was on guard, he approached curiously and found that it was a golden-haired middle-aged man.

the other party had a comfortable expression as he felt the strong wind attacking his body.

“do you need any help?” Zhao Xu asked in a low voice.

The golden-haired middle-aged man turned around and looked at Zhao Xu, who was standing on the floating disc. He had a thoughtful expression on his face as he said, ” ” i should be thanking you for your kindness, but why do i feel an aura that i hate on you? ”

“What have you been exposed to?”
