The Truth of Magic

Chapter 547 Free Magic Constancy

Wang Ningwei's words were very simple, meaning to ask Zhao Xu to list a priority transmission list.

But behind the scenes, Zhao Xu was asked to act as a supreme god, screening the life and death of people on earth.

This is not only an extremely detached "power", but also an unbearable "responsibility".

He can't decide who will die, but he can decide who will be given the "safe quota" first, so that the other party can have enough food and clothing.

Just like when a disaster occurs, the "precious places" who leave the city first, while those who stay in the city may not die, but they are facing the risk head-on.

When humans came to Earth in the previous life, the barren land could be said to be in ruins, and everything from building houses to various living measures was started from scratch.

More critical is the issue of food supply.

Even with the full support of the surrounding human forces at that time under the will of the good gods, the food for the seven billion people was still difficult to satisfy.

Famine, a term that many people have only seen in "history books", is once again close to everyone, tormenting everyone's belly.

Although soil has no nutrition, it can temporarily solve the "hunger".

Among the players, those who can use the "dimension bag" or pull food from thousands of miles will immediately become the masters among them.

It’s just that in the previous life, those who were immediately taken care of were the relatives of those game players, and later extended to earthlings with good talents who could become professionals.

According to the ideas of the Virgins, everyone should survive equally.

It's just that at the end of the day, the people on earth who traveled through were all marked with "the weight of their own weight" by the invisible scale.

This is also the "iron law" that is still effective in the era of incomparable chaos at the beginning of time travel.

On the other hand, Zhao Xu sighed, "You decide."

"Me?" Wang Ningwei was a little surprised.

Strictly speaking, the capacity of the alliance is also limited, and the surrounding towns in the barren land blocked all roads at the beginning of the crossing.

Because once it is opened, as long as refugees flood into the city, it is impossible to provide a large number of jobs immediately so that these refugees can exchange work for food.

Moreover, their consumption would collapse a city in an instant.

Only Zhao Xu, as the lord of Falling Star Town, could suppress everyone's opinions and recruit refugees.

This is the reason why this portal can only work in Falling Star Town.

At this time, Zhao Xu walked silently into the wooden house, in front of a huge parchment map of two meters by one meter five, on which the surface conditions of the entire Falling Star town for a hundred miles were depicted with three or four colors of ink.

Cooperating with Zhao Xu's "earth vein detection" spell and the recent feedback from various adventure players, this most detailed map of the current town has also been successfully released.

Zhao Xu pointed to the empty space outside the town and said, "Falling Star Town should become Falling Star City, and those new arrivals are just a good supplement."

"Then plan to accommodate the earthlings into the Northern Alliance?" Wang Ningwei discovered Zhao Xu's intention.

"No, the Earth will always be its own Earth."

"It would be a pity for these players who grew up in the early stage to be lost to other forces," Zhao Xu said.

In fact, because the Northern Alliance can be counted among the major forces that are closer to the land of descent, the original players, seeing the chaotic situation of the Earth forces at that time, brought their families back to the "Alliance" in despair .

When Wang Ningwei supports the entire structure in a year or two later, those who missed the initial establishment will not be able to go back. It is equivalent to a feeling of parting ways with the "earth forces", similar to the identity of overseas Chinese.

At this moment, Zhao Xu naturally would not allow this to happen. He regarded Falling Star Town more as an enclave of the earth.

"You draft the list first," Zhao Xu ordered.

What Wang Ningwei is drafting now will naturally not be specific personnel, but will only list certain "personnel conditions".

Arranging these people to come to Falling Star Town through the portal at that time is also for their protection.

As for Zhao Xu's relatives and friends, his "Teleportation" actually didn't cost money and could be activated at any time.

"By the way, Zhong Xia, since you have reached the fifth ring, do you think about the constant magic spell?" Wang Ningwei asked Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu's heart skipped a beat, and the spell that he had been obsessed with when he read the magic classics sounded again.

At that time, Zhao Xu, who could only read magic for an hour or two, kept laughing. It would be great if his "reading magic" could last all the time.

Who would have thought that things are different.

Now, relying on the level of the caster, he can already make a "reading magic" last for several days.

Persistence of magic, by itself, does not create any miraculous effects in Arthur's world, its target is just another spell.

In other words, it can make certain specified spells permanent.

A longer-lasting and more powerful "effect" than "durable spell".

However, the constant magic technique also has a "price" that needs to be paid.

That is a huge life energy!

Frequent use of constant magic will only lead to a delay in upgrading, or even a drop in level.

In an instant, Zhao Xu's "Wisdom Spellcaster" ability appeared in his mind, and he immediately called up the details of the spell.

"It seems that you are also ready to use it." Wang Ningwei said, "But now there is a problem, that is, the casting time of the constant magic spell itself is 2 rounds."

"And your 'Supernatural Spell' ability can just save the materials for casting spells, that is, you can cast the 'Constant Magic Spell' without paying life energy, but—"

Speaking of which, Wang Ningwei frowned, "I remember that the conditions for using supernatural spells are that the spells cannot exceed the "standard action" time, otherwise they cannot be used."

"So I would like to ask you, is there any solution? For example, the 'selective spell' ability of the spell guard is to release the spell in a fixed position for a 'full round', even if it is an hour-level spell, it can also It has been shortened to 1 round, but it still does not meet the 'standard action' time."

Facing Wang Ningwei's tangled look, Zhao Xu couldn't help but shook his head with a smile, "Don't worry, when resources are over-allocated, when you encounter problems, they will be solved easily."

Zhao Xu's "multi-talented spellcaster" naturally followed the casting time honestly. It just solved the spell problem.

However, he has the specialty of 'Strange Foresight'.

"I can use the Uncanny Foresight spell to solve this problem. At that time, within the range of spell familiarization, those spells I chose that were not memorized in the spell book were 'standard actions'. The spells outside the range were 'full-round actions' .”

Zhao Xu's words were not harsh, but directly pointed to the core of the problem.

"Familiarity with spells," Zhao Xu's flawed specialty, allowed him to choose a spell equal to his intelligence adjustment value. He could prepare without a spell book, and he could also handle emergencies if he lost the spell book.

For Zhao Xu, who had the professional ability of "Wisdom Spellcaster", it was of course meaningless.

However, it was a prerequisite for the key specialty "Strange Foresight". Zhao Xu could free up spell slots (7) equal to his intelligence adjustment value, which he could use to cast spells spontaneously.

It's just that the number of these vacant spell slots was limited before, and Zhao Xu used "multi-talented spellcasters" to achieve spontaneous spellcasting.

Bi Qi sees him but rarely uses it.

Now that he has potential points to restore vacant spell slots in a targeted manner, the power of this specialty has only increased.

More importantly, this spell can control spells with a huge "casting cost" that takes longer than the standard action into "standard action casting", which perfectly fits the spell guardian's "supernatural spell" ability.

A specialty that Zhao Xu had mastered at level 1 finally came to fruition at level 9.

At this moment, Zhao Xu deeply felt the depth of Antinoya's plan for him.

There are very few spells that require expensive casting materials, and among them, the casting time exceeds the standard action, and there are even fewer of them.

So the number of spells that Zhao Xu was familiar with was enough to cover.

After understanding, Zhao Xu opened his backpack directly, and took out the spell scrolls recording "Abandon Chaos" and "Convert Chaos" from it. With his current caster level, even if he used the nine-ring scroll with bare hands, that would be too much. There is no risk of failure.

Immediately, the energy of the abyss opened the channel with the spell energy in the scroll, and penetrated into Zhao Xu's body little by little, wrapping him tightly.

And within a few seconds of the "Spell Familiarity" specialty, Zhao Xu seamlessly connected to the "Abandon Chaos" spell.

In front of Wang Ningwei, she stripped off her chaotic energy little by little.

The "Spell Familiarity" specialty came and went, but the familiar spells were re-selected by Zhao Xu, which also added vitality to the spell.

"The feeling you gave me just now is more like a descendant of the abyss, with that kind of deep abyss feeling. Even the Tanar'ri demons of the abyss natives have never touched me so strongly. "

"Is it that exaggerated?" Zhao Xu smiled, thinking to himself that the eight-ring spell was really effective.

At the same time, Zhao Xu also took a deep breath.

Now he is not prepared for anything with his hands empty, but it is also a manifestation of his instinct.

Potential points solve the problem of learning expertise and spell slots.

Supernatural spells solve the problem of spell resistance and spell materials.

Metamagic control solves the problem of metamagic cost.

At this moment, Zhao Xu had reached a perfect closed loop, enough to deal with any difficulties that the world faced with his bare hands.

Zhao Xu knew that there were three types of spell applications in the constant magic spell.

The first class of designated spells can be constant on itself, such as arcane sight.

The second type of designated spells can be constant on itself, other creatures, or an object; such as human game changing.

The third type of designated spells can be fixed on objects and areas, such as magic alarms.

At the same time, there are three prerequisites for constant spells.

One is that the current body has a specified spell.

The second is to have the caster level corresponding to the spell requirements. For example, the arcane vision of the third ring requires a caster level of 11.

The third is to have enough life energy.

At this moment, he wants to keep all the spells of the first and second types constant on himself.

Zhao Xu, at this moment, began to enter the "inappropriate mode".
