The Truth of Magic

87 Magical trap

But Zhao Xu knew that he had to give the team some psychological counseling before he took action. Otherwise, the team wouldn’t be able to continue on.

Losing something that could be recovered wasn’t scary.

For example, as long as there was a priest to recover their health points, they would not be afraid of death even if they took a few hits.

Zhao Xu looked at Fengye, whose face had also turned a little pale, and comforted him, ” don’t worry. Permanent means that it’ll be permanent if it’s not removed. the level three divine spell ‘remove curse’ or the level four divine spell ‘break enchantment’ can stop this effect.”

“Report this to the nearby temple. They will cast a spell to remove it for you based on this achievement.” Zhao Xu said.

but zhao xu didn’t say the rest of what he wanted to say. the leader of the underground organization, iess, wanted to cover up this place, so she had to pay him enough money to keep it a secret, including removing the curse from fengye.

It was just that the priest Youyou in the team was hard to cover up.

After hearing Zhao Xu’s words and knowing that there was still hope, Fengye finally let out a sigh of relief. The expressions of his friends around him weren’t as heavy as they were now.

This was also the fate of a warrior. He had to be at the forefront of everything.

there’s another effect that’s even scarier. There’s a 50% chance that you’ll be slowed down and unable to move after every round. zhao xu added.

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t imagine how disgusting it would be if they could only walk for a while and be paralyzed for a while.

Not to mention anything else, at least for now, he had to return home.

“why don’t we go back and switch people first?” the poet frog suggested.

They had only been here for less than half an hour. They could have gone back and replaced someone else.

“We’re already at the top of the team.” Fengye also stood up at this time. it’s fine. It’s just 3 health points less. It’s not a big problem.

After saying that, he even patted his chest to show that even if he only had 8 points of physique left, he was still a tenacious warrior.

zhao xu thought to himself. actually, he had also lost 3 endurance points, which meant that he was at a 15% disadvantage against the toughness check.

however, fengye was right. as a level 1 warrior, even without these, he was still much stronger than the level 1 martial artists outside.

This was the confidence of the 11 basic classes.

“Then, shall we remove this magic trap now?” rogue rainbow looked at the brick behind the altar. it was the yellow light that had just hit fengye.

if his search skill check was a little stronger, the system might even be able to warn him of the traps.

This way, Fengye would not be cursed.

“Let’s wait for a moment.” zhao xu realized that everyone seemed to have fallen into a dead end, and it was as if they couldn’t get past this trap.

“I’ll use the ‘detect the secret door’ spell first. If there’s nothing special, I’ll just give up on this place.” Zhao Xu said.

Just now, the two rogues were just checking the altar, so they didn’t trigger it. Now that the trap was activated, it was much more risky to check the secret door.

Zhao Xu didn’t have the habit of removing all the traps he saw.

at this moment, everyone also spread out to the back so that they wouldn’t interfere with zhao xu’s casting.

Zhao Xu immediately activated his multi-talented spellcaster ability and used the two level 0 divine spell slots that he had in his mind as fuel. He started chanting an incantation and moving his body around to cast the spell.

after the ” detect secret door ” spell was cast, zhao xu’s eyes could sense that there was something strange happening within a cone-like radius of twenty meters in front of him.

in an instant, he could see the outline of the secret door in front of him.

but zhao xu continued to maintain his full concentration. the focus skill that he cast started to give him energy, helping him maintain this state.

the longer the spell was used, the more information it would provide.

time passed by slowly, and everyone was quietly looking at zhao xu and waiting for the results of his spell.

After spending so much time together, Zhao Xu had become a true expert in their team.

after a while, zhao xu finally stopped casting the spell. he let out a soft sigh, turned his head around, and said, ” there is indeed a secret door here. we need to press down on that brick to open this door. ”

everyone nodded thoughtfully.

“The entrance to the underground city is behind this secret door.” Noah lowered his head and pondered. Slowly, his eyes showed a different kind of expression. Hill, are you confident in dismantling this trap? ”

Hill, the Rogue on Noah’s side, had a lock-picking steel stick in his mouth. He looked ahead and frowned. I’ll try.

“alright, be careful.” Noah instructed.

Rogue Hill touched the tool bag in his pocket and walked forward, keeping a certain distance to observe the magic trap.

rainbow, who had not discovered the trap earlier, followed suit and observed from the side.

“rainbow learned the ‘disarm device’ skill?” Zhao Xu asked Youyou in a whisper.

” there is. rainbow is graduating soon. he is one of the top 20 graduates among the wanderers in hurricane city. ”

zhao xu laughed when he heard this.

If it could really be removed, it would save him a lot of energy.

Suddenly, Hill pressed down on rainbow and pulled him back. At the same time, he said, ” “don’t try anymore.”

rainbow, who didn’t know what was going on, quickly followed. after seeing fengye’s miserable state, everyone didn’t dare to act rashly against this trap.

the entire team couldn’t help but take a few steps back. yoyo almost bumped into zhao xu, and she quickly apologized in a low voice.

when they were almost three meters away, hill said, ” i was lucky just now. i found the trick and got a very high result. ”

“It’s lifted?” noah asked loudly. he could not help but feel happy.

on the contrary, hill shook his head. ” that’s why i knew i had failed. this kind of magic trap is too difficult. i might not even know if i had failed to remove it. that’s why i don’t dare to try anymore, including you.” he looked at the rainbow.

rainbow nodded dejectedly. this was a magic trap that was more difficult than level-25. even if he was lucky, he might not be able to remove it.

zhao xu wasn’t surprised to hear this.

if a random magic trap could be triggered by level-1 rogues like them, there would be no need to set it up.

Zhao Xu took two steps forward and looked at the brick while keeping his distance.

“leader noah, are you sure you want to go in?” Zhao Xu turned around and asked.

Noah had originally planned to ask Maple Leaf to go offline before asking the leader, but he was a little stunned when he heard what Zhao Xu said.

Although Hill was only a level 1 rogue, his ability to touch the device was the highest in the team, which was why he had brought Hill down.

“Mr. Zhongxia, you have a way?” he asked in disbelief.

Zhao Xu nodded and said, “I have a way, but you’ll have to pay more. This is a consumable magic item.

This was also the principle of adventuring. It was his duty to use spell slots, but it was a different story if he used a consumable item once. It would be counted as part of the team.

“no problem. even if you can’t get in, shattered star will compensate you equally. if we can enter, we’ll see.” noah promised.

it was also because he had received this mission at the last minute. otherwise, with how important she was to him, she would have brought him all the magic items, not to mention the spellcasters.

broken star? zhao xu thought about it for a moment. he still hadn’t heard of this organization’s name after ten years, but it didn’t matter anymore. he had already gotten the extra reward.

Zhao Xu looked at the magic trap in front of him and immediately took out the trump card that Antonya had given him from his backpack.

the original price of the staff was 65000 gold pieces, but no one knew how much energy it had left.
