The Truth of Magic

497 chapter 496

The Lord of the northern Alliance in front of him was a mature middle-aged man in his forties. The beard at the corner of his mouth had some charm.

In order to show the Alliance’s adoration of force and their determination to defend the Battlefront of the ice field mountain range, donder specially wore a light chain-mail shirt and a custom-made “commander’s sword” on his waist, which represented the command of all the Allied forces.

he was the only one at the party who showed off like this, but no one would object to this kind of behavior.

When one reached a high position, there was a hidden meaning behind every word, action, and basic clothing.

At this moment, Zhao Xu was looking at this Lord of donder, who he had admired so much in his previous life and had never doubted in his heart. For the first time, he had the urge to cast a spell on that face.

Perhaps it was just like what Zhang Qi had said to him after he had transmigrated.

he felt that the moment he became the person he once hated, he could still sit down calmly and negotiate a deal even though he knew that the other party was the mastermind.

there was no doubt that donder must have a means similar to a mental barrier to protect himself.

For example, the eye of concealment, which was worth more than 100000 gold coins, could do this. It was also a basic magical item that the rulers of the major organizations and forces in Arthur would be equipped with.

Mistra, the wizard Association, fourth-circle wizard, zhongxia.

zhao xu introduced himself.

With every word that came out of his mouth, his not-so-loud voice was like a searing hot branding iron, causing the entire Lake to boil on the spot. Countless bubbles burst out, and the atmosphere instantly reached its peak.

“It’s him?”

“The owner of the divine weapon?”

“What?”

that’s right, it’s the mage who repelled the attack of hundreds of people that night. I remember he’s called zhongxia.

The cries of surprise rose and fell like waves. Suddenly, everyone’s eyes were locked onto Zhao Xu.

It was no wonder that these guests, who already had some status, made a sound of surprise at this moment.

This was because the name ‘Midsummer’ was a hot topic in the Alliance.

In particular, the things he had done after he came out had stirred up a storm, which made people look forward to the power of the divine artifact.

Zhao Xu, on the other hand, was a little surprised. He noticed that donder’s eyes were also shining with golden light as he looked at him. Suddenly, the afterimage that had been there disappeared.

It turned out that no one knew.

“wow, isn’t that very strong?”

he’s already a fourth-circle wizard at such a young age. I wonder which family he’s from.

“Your message is too slow. He is a player, the current first person. You’d better give up on that thought.”

With this popular sentence, the gazes of several noble girls in the banquet hall finally returned to calmness.

for these girls who had not yet faced the responsibility of marriage, tonight was originally a preliminary “selection.”

Among the higher-ups of the Alliance in Olu city, countless outstanding young people were gathered here.

However, Zhao Xu’s words about how powerful a God-tier equipment was and how famous Wizards were were were were nothing to these girls who had never had sex before.

But that night, he had truly repelled hundreds of attackers who had coveted the divine weapon. This kind of power proved that he was a first-class expert.

this was the point that countless noble girls dreamed of.

As for the possibility of running all over the world if she followed him, it might be a bonus point for a girl with a Hero Complex.

However, after hearing the identity of this player, many noble girls ‘thoughts were shattered.

Many of the outstanding young men who were still looking at Zhao Xu with dissatisfaction started to look at him with gentler eyes.

Only the guests who had secretly sent people to attack and even planned for this that night were silently sizing up Zhao Xu and thinking about what they should do next.

Zhao Xu finally understood why everyone’s surprised looks didn’t seem fake at all. Or rather, it was as if this was the first time they had heard of him.

He couldn’t help but look at Frere, who was smiling smugly at the side and had introduced him to this place.

It was obvious that Zhao Xu and the others hadn’t received any search or attention from any detection spells since last night, and that was all because of Frere.

He had concealed the news, forcing the guards and city guards to release the news a whole day later.

This also made Zhao Xu reevaluate Frere’s capabilities. In his previous life, his sister had died during a difficult labor next to don, and Frere was quickly pushed out of the noble circle of the Alliance.

From the looks of it now, to be able to stand firm in the upper echelons for a period of time and make a name for himself, his methods would not be simple.

“He’s actually such an outstanding talent. I must have been blind.”

Don walked right up to Zhao Xu and a strong aroma of incense wafted into his nose. He immediately grabbed Zhao Xu’s hand with great force and looked very happy and respectful.

At the same time, he turned to the side and looked at the guests in the banquet hall. He said loudly, ” “Everyone, I also have a piece of news to announce.”

“I’m sure everyone has an impression of the explosion that happened when the palace of Azur fell from the sky and landed in the Twilight Forest. At that time, there was a piece of news from the Center of the explosion, that there was a divine weapon inside.”

even the countless adventurers present all agreed that Mr. Zhongxia was the one who obtained the final divine weapon.

At this moment, Don was just holding Zhao Xu’s arm and putting his other hand on Zhao Xu’s shoulder, as if he were his nephew.

With commander donder’s reminder, the speculation of the “divine weapon” that had been hovering in everyone’s hearts was torn apart and spread on the table.

Meanwhile, the players patrolling the banquet hall could not help but relax their vigilance as they looked at the stage before them.

One of the warrior players could not help but Mutter to himself, ” this commander can’t be so stupid that he thinks he can force US players to hand over the divine weapon on the spot, right? ”

As he spoke, he could not help but press his hand on the standard longsword.

Immediately, the team leader beside him stealthily pressed his hand down and stared at the impulsive player. what are you doing? Are you trying to rebel?”

after the two of them glared at each other, the player put away his longsword and explained, ” no, i’m just on guard. ”

...

The warrior player who was just about to make a move was considered a part-time worker in the game. After thinking for a while, he gave in to reality.

Seeing that the other party had stopped, the captain of the small team of guards couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

These fearless players were indeed useful, but they also had their own temperaments. There were also some who drew their swords when they disagreed, which gave him a headache.

In the end, the players who were able to enter the high-level banquet hall were more or less trusted and nurtured by the Alliance officials, so the other party had to stop in the end.

However, he also became vigilant. He secretly signaled to the leader of another team that was native to Arthur to pay attention.

It seemed like he had underestimated the prestige of the player’s number one,’zhongxia’. He could actually attract the help of other players just by his name.

Zhao Xu was a little surprised that donder had placed him on the fire rack. He didn’t remember donder as a greedy person who didn’t know his limits. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to get to his current position.

The devil took away his faith and his soul after death, but he would not take away his brain.

He must have had his own reasons for telling everyone that Zhao Xu had obtained a divine artifact. It didn’t mean that he wanted Zhao Xu to hand over the divine artifact and then give him an important task.

at that time, the small team that successfully entered the divine artifact during the early stages of the explosion basically died after being thrown out of the palace of Azur when it rose to the sky. Even those who were hiding in the beginning couldn’t escape the explosion at the moment of Ascension.”

“Without any internal witnesses, the original arrangement was broken in the palace of Azur, and it only took two days to take off. At that time, I also thought that Mr. Zhongxia was the final winner and obtained the divine weapon. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why he was the only one who survived and ascended to heaven earlier than expected.”

...

Hearing this, all the guests in the banquet hall were interested in donder as they all looked at the two people in the front stage.

They had already vaguely sensed that there must have been some secrets hidden within the organization at that time.

Right now, there were quite a few people in the Alliance who were searching for Zhao Xu. Of course, they weren’t doing this in the name of taking revenge for the hundreds of people who had attacked them that night.

Instead, she wanted to use her identity as a relative of the team that had entered the palace within six hours to try and find Zhao Xu. She wanted him to tell her what had happened inside and why all the other adventurers had died and why he was the only one who had survived.

Sometimes, not dying together was a mistake.

When Zhao Xu heard what donder said, he felt a lot more at ease. He already knew what donder was trying to say.

He actually wanted to give him face in this way.

however, just now, the ‘Joint Investigation Team’ formed by the officials of the Union, the investigators sent by the temples, and even the wizard Association has come to a final conclusion.

the result of this investigation is guaranteed by the many churches of good gods in the city of Olu.

“That divine artifact,’Holy breath’, has already ascended to heaven with the palace of Azur. If we really want to get it, we’ll have to wait until the next time the palace of Azur descends.”

As soon as donder finished his words, even though he raised his hand, he still couldn’t suppress all the discussions in the field.

The sound waves rose and fell, wave after wave. For a moment, no one could accept this shocking news. Even those who sold information wanted to turn around and leave on the spot to spread the news.

None of them had managed to obtain the Holy breath!

One could only imagine how many legendary powerhouses would be attracted the next time it landed.

Even in the next few decades, the Alliance would set up watch towers near the explosion area. Once there was any unusual movement, they would send back a message.

“damn, it’s actually like this?” A monk player who was standing guard at the edge of the hall couldn’t help but exclaim. His shiny head even glowed with an oily light under the light of the hall.

in that case, this mage zhongxia is just so-so, without a godly weapon, he’s not that scary. Another warrior player said, unconvinced.

“You fool.” Another person immediately retorted.

what did I say wrong? he doesn’t have a divine weapon, he doesn’t have this kind of super-concept equipment, but he still has two eyes and a nose like us, and also only needs five Lifestones. The warrior player was unconvinced.

so, is it wrong for you to be stupid? did you forget that God zhongxia killed hundreds of people who ambushed him that night and successfully broke out of the siege? ”

I’ll give you a knife and let you kill 500 pigs all over the mountains and fields. Even if your knife is blunt, you won’t be able to complete a three-digit number.

not to mention, those who dared to ambush him that night were all ruthless people.

Suddenly, realization dawned on the players who were standing in a row.

The mage in front of him, zhongxia, did not have any ‘divine weapon’ at all, but he had achieved something that no player could achieve.

He single-handedly destroyed an entire Regiment of ambush troops.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that such a fierce person could run amuck in the Alliance.

In the beginning, everyone thought that it was a divine weapon, so it was fine. Now that they knew that it was done by a single player, the forum and game producers would go crazy.

this combat power is ridiculous. Is there really no balance in Arthur? ” One of the players couldn’t help but say. He looked at Zhao Xu with a helpless expression.

in normal PvP games, it’s already impressive to be able to fight one-versus-two or one-versus-three, but this is actually one-versus-hundreds. The man took a deep breath.

The ambushers were adventurers like them, not monsters like goblins.

Donder seemed to be very satisfied with the reaction of the crowd. He patted Zhao Xu’s shoulder even harder and said, ” next, I have something to announce.

As he spoke, he raised his voice. seeing how outstanding you are, mage zhongxia, the love for talent in my heart can’t be calmed.

I declare that as long as I am in this position, our Alliance will do our best to help this Mr. Zhongxia to obtain the divine weapon ‘Holy breath’ the next time the palace of Azur descends.

As he spoke, donder lifted Zhao Xu’s hand up with all his might.

All the guests present, whether they were the senior executives of the Alliance or the most ordinary guards standing on the side, clapped as if they were infected by donder’s personal charm.

Zhao Xu also had a happy smile on his face. He seemed to be very happy with this arrangement.

However, he couldn’t help but Mutter in his heart,”sure enough, don is not someone to be trifled with.”

The followers of the demon general grazite were indeed all cunning.

because of this, he had tied up zhao xu, who was the most likely to get a divine artifact and who knew the most information.

But Zhao Xu didn’t feel any burden at all.

He was also helpless. It seemed that Frere had protected his information too well.

He had even kept the fact that he was the president of the Association of mages in Starfall town a secret.

If they were to ” cooperate ” with him to obtain the divine weapon, who would be able to bypass the wizard Association? In fact, Zhao Xu noticed the slight change in Frere’s expression from the corner of his eye.

Knowing how to package an item, he successfully sent his sister into donder’s harem.

Tonight, Zhao Xu’s name had already spread far and wide, so in order to shock the world with a single brilliant feat and let Zhao Xu see what he was capable of, he had locked everything up.

As a result, donder’s impromptu move was immediately restrained by an undisclosed news.

At this moment, Frere’s throat moved slightly. He was about to walk over and announce Zhao Xu’s other identity.

All of a sudden, a guard from the back ran in with an anxious look. His forehead was covered with sweat as he wanted to go forward and chat with donder privately.

However, he was stopped by donder’s bodyguards at once.

“Tell me, what’s the matter?” Donder said as he waved his hand.

Frere had just introduced him to zhongxia, and he was in a very good mood, especially since he needed to know more about the internal affairs of the palace of EDRO through Zhao Xu.

This way, he would be able to successfully complete his master’s mission.

“Commander, Madam Ellie and miss Flay, they ... They ...”

“What’s wrong?” Donder immediately frowned and shouted.

“They were originally staying in Madam Ellie’s house, waiting for Madam to put on a new makeup for miss Flay. However, Madam and miss just disappeared mysteriously like that. It was only when our guards outside realized that something was wrong and barged in that they realized that they had disappeared.”

the maids and guards in the house are all dead. There is a line of Bloody words on the wall, saying that it was the doing of the six sisters.

As he spoke, he looked at commander donder in horror.

However, at this moment, many people’s faces turned pale, and even Frere almost fainted.

Zhao Xu fell silent as well. He couldn’t be sure at this point whether or not Madam Ellie and Flay had gone through something like this in secret in his previous life.

If this dragged on, it would be a scandal that donder would never be able to erase.

The six Bandit sisters could be said to be the most notorious bandits in the Alliance. The six of them had become sisters and specialized in kidnapping young girls.

even after plundering, their methods were extremely brutal, forcing women into prostitution and selling them as slaves.

If they had been late, the two of them might have already gone crazy from the torture.

At this moment, Zhao Xu was also quietly holding onto the Super Magic instantaneous scepter in his hand.

The six sisters really had an ill-fated relationship.

For a moment, all kinds of memories from that time emerged in his mind.

Unfortunately, Zhao Xu had the memories of his previous life, so he knew exactly where the other party was hiding.
