The Truth of Magic



675 The battlefield

” captain, please save them. they might be trampled to death. ” Yoona, who was following closely behind Zhao Xu, said in a panic.

In the direction she was looking at, all the weapons in the hands of the people who had just been captured had been confiscated, and they had lost most of their combat ability.

Apart from spellcasters, only monks who were used to fighting bare-handed and even had penetrative force could maintain their combat power without any decrease. Other combat-type classes could only escape in a hurry unless they could reverse-sweep their weapons.

not to mention, many of them had their hands tightly bound and even their collarbones were pierced.

However, the cavalrymen and adventurers from earth had already begun to fight the ogres head-on. There were even signs of a priest group.

However, those who were surrounded seemed to have been abandoned and did not pay much attention.

That’s not right?

Zhao Xu naturally heard Yoona’s words, but he looked around and realized that the main force of this Army wasn’t coming from where he was at all, which made him a little confused.

“Ah!”

Suddenly, a few players who couldn’t escape in time screamed in pain. Although the ogres had already ridden their Wyverns to the front line, it didn’t mean that they were safe.

The ogres that hadn’t reached the battle line waved their giant axes and slashed at them!

At that moment, the hostages finally understood.

The reinforcements on the outside had instead become the talisman that urged them to die!

Even if a powerful divine weapon descended from the sky and slaughtered in all directions, it would not be able to save them.

In less than three rounds, the group of trapped people could fall to the ground at any time.

Unless someone had mastered the ability to fly, they might be able to escape when the Wyvern was not paying attention.

Even a 2-circle levitation spell that could not be used at will would work. As long as he kept his distance and did not get hit, he would be safe.

For a moment, the players, who thought they had a chance of survival, all showed a look of despair.

“Don’t worry,” Zhao Xu gently patted Yoona’s shoulder.

“Since they’re part of Yanan, I won’t let them die so easily.”

As he spoke, Zhao Xu quickly waved the magic staff in his hand and started casting spells!

“Dimensional drag!”

as the fifth-circle spell of the ” teleportation ” sub-branch of the conjuring system was cast, it was accompanied by an energy explosion of a faint blue light and a subtle but rapid explosion sound.

The ten or so members who were within ten meters of Zhao Xu instantly disappeared from where they were standing.

These people did not even have time to think before they suddenly found themselves on the other side of the battlefield, back at the rear of the human camp.

“What am I doing?”

“Ah? how is that possible?”

Sister LAN, who had just been hacked in front of her by the giant axe and had even broken the compound longbow in her hand that was worth hundreds of gold, had already gritted her teeth and prepared to take the blow.

Who would’ve thought that she would cross over a hundred meters in the blink of an eye!

This kind of near-death fear and happiness filled her body and mind, and she couldn’t recover for a long time.

In theory, dimensional drag was a ” spell ” with great strategic value. It could reorganize small formations.

It was like a Chinese Chess board, allowing him to re-arrange and place the pieces one by one.

It was just that Zhao Xu had always been a lone wolf, so he rarely used it.

The spell itself was a short-range spell, and with Zhao Xu’s current spellcaster level, he could choose a target within 30 meters.

there was one at each level, and they were no more than ten meters away from each other. all of the victims would be teleported to another area within zhao xu’s field of vision according to his will.

There were less than ten people in Zhao Xu’s team that had just arrived, so he gave the remaining 20 spots to the ogres that were blocking him from the other group of hostages.

In an instant, a path was opened up in front of him.

“Wow, Captain, is this magic?”

right now, the entire battlefield was in chaos, and everyone was busy with their own matters. only yoona, who was following closely behind zhao xu, saw what was happening.

“also, over there, over there!” As she spoke, Yoona grabbed onto the corner of Zhao Xu’s shirt and pointed at the place where they had first met the prisoners.

“Little girl, don’t be so excited.” zhao xu gently waved his hand.

at the same time, a few of the ogres and barbarians that were close to zhao xu weren’t smart enough to realize how powerful he was. they went berserk on the spot, and their dark brown skin and muscles grew stronger.

at the same time, a few javelins swept through the air with a “sharp” sound.

“hold on tight.”

Zhao Xu, who had the global vision, didn’t even need to turn his head to see the killing intent at the corner. He just grabbed Yoona’s wrist and walked towards the path that he had cleared out as if nothing had happened.

there seems to be an arrow … the second the javelin was close, Yoona, who had excellent perception, also noticed something strange.

But as early as the daily buff, Zhao Xu had already cast a level 4 ” fire of friendship ” spell on himself for a long time, which was specifically used against long-ranged attacks.

suddenly, a golden force field barrier appeared behind him. as the sound of an ancient incantation rang out, the energy ripples of the barrier created a huge gravitational force on the spot. the javelins were twisted around zhao xu and the ogre and were forcefully thrown towards the other ogres that were passing by.

Screams sounded as the ogres were hit in the knee by javelins.

[ friendly fire ] was a 4-Circle Star teleportation spell that countered all long-range attacks.

When they finally got close to the area where the prisoners were held and he was within 30 meters of casting a spell, Zhao Xu used dimensional drag to move all of the prisoners away.

The entire process was so smooth that the ogres didn’t even have time to react before the captive in front of them disappeared, and the axe missed.

Seeing this scene, the kind Yoona finally heaved a sigh of relief.

but zhao xu nudged yoona lightly with his shoulder. ” it’s your turn. ”

“Ah?” Yoona was confused. Captain, you can teleport me away.

After they had transferred the hostages and completed their task of covering the rear, they could indeed be teleported away.

“Hehe.” zhao xu grinned.

who said we’re leaving? I’m telling you to continue attacking and kill these ogres.

“Ah?”

This time, Yoona was in disbelief. She was going to kill the ogres?

Even before she was resurrected, Yoona had been a missionary priest. After receiving close-combat training as a priest in the floating city, she had not had many opportunities to hold a weapon.

Not to mention, after she came into contact with the death God’s divinity fragment, Yoona did not have such a habit.

now, she had to personally kill the monster?

“What do you think?” Zhao Xu urged him, ” hurry up and do it. I’ll be watching you from behind.

“captain.”

Yoona immediately looked at Zhao Xu with a troubled expression.

to be honest, she really needed to prepare herself mentally before she could swing her weapon and attack people.

Using spells to kill someone and a warrior using a weapon to kill someone had a different feedback quality.

However, after getting a taste of meat and throwing up a little, they wouldn’t have this kind of psychological barrier anymore, so Zhao Xu also needed Yoona to overcome this.

In his training goal system, Yoona was not just a ” healer ”

“Take it.” as he spoke, zhao xu handed over a weapon that clerics often used, a ” spiked mace. ”

“I, I’m scared.” Yoona, who was originally in spectator mode, finally felt her legs tremble slightly.

But Zhao Xu could understand.

When executing a death sentence with a gun, the soldiers who were ordered to shoot would have to prepare themselves mentally.

Some of the soldiers who had been on the battlefield even suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder after the war.

Even when the death penalty was carried out by injection later on, several people were injected together. No one knew if their own injection was fatal, so the psychological pressure was shared.

It was only natural that Zheng xinyun could not do it now.

but zhao xu was determined to train yoona this time, so he wasn’t going to let her back down.

while he was talking, he had already used several force field spells. there was a ‘tail sweep’ spell that released a force field tail sweeping across the area, knocking down many ogres.

There was also the fifth-circle ” Bigby’s protective palm “, which created a large magic hand between him and the enemy. This floating, incorporeal hand kept floating between them and the enemy, preventing the ogres from approaching.

“Brother, next time, okay?”

yoona still had a hesitant look on her face as she looked at zhao xu for help. it was obvious that the stench of the ogres had scared her.

Or rather, she was afraid that if she swung the hammer, blood or something would splatter on her face.

More importantly, she was also afraid of pain.

Zhao Xu instantly used the mind detection spell to read Yoona’s mind, and he couldn’t help but Pat himself on the head.

“If I’m not careful and get crushed to death by these giant wooden clubs, you’ll have to collect my corpse, brother Captain.” Yoona saw that Zhao Xu’s will couldn’t be disobeyed, so she started crying on the spot.

Seriously, if he didn’t know better, he would have thought that Zhao Xu was forcing a poor young girl to go to the battlefield and die.

Zhao Xu cursed to himself.

“Here, take it.”

As he spoke, Zhao Xu took out a glass bottle filled with normal water from his backpack. this is a fatal medicine for you.

“No matter how serious your injury is, you can still jump up and down after drinking it.” Zhao Xu consoled her.

Zhao Xu definitely wouldn’t be able to save someone who had been killed on the spot.

“Big brother Captain, you’re lying. This is clearly just a normal bottle of water.” Yun ‘er exposed.

Zhao Xu couldn’t help but blush. He had almost forgotten that Yoona was a cleric.

Even if one had never eaten pork before, they would have seen pigs run. Even if an average player wanted to buy Level 1 light wound healing potions, they would have to buy them from the temples.

In fact, he had been planning to cast a ‘healing spell’ on Yoo’s body according to the situation. He did not need to give her a real healing potion, so that she would not drink it like sugar water.

even though a bottle of healing potion that cost a few hundred gold coins wasn’t anything valuable to zhao xu, it was a strategic resource that could save his life in ya nan’s warehouse, so zhao xu didn’t have any intention of wasting it.

However, Yoona had obviously forgotten that he was a priest.

Of course, Zhao Xu couldn’t really just exchange for a real potion, so he continued to say stubbornly, ” this is a real healing potion.

As he spoke, his other two fingers tapped the bottle, completing the most critical casting action-

“Speed potion!”

as zhao xu started chanting the incantation, the normal water in the water bottle started to flow around the clock. at the same time, a bronze spark appeared on his fingertip and dripped into the water.

In an instant, the entire bottle was filled with a deep rust color.

In the next second, Zhao Xu continued to cast the 4th-circle divine spell, heal fatal injuries, seamlessly.

The healing aura of the spell, which was full of positive energy, did not enter any of the People’s bodies. Instead, it all entered the cup of water!

He transformed the water in the flask so that it could store spells just like how potions were made!

In the dozens of minutes that he had been gone, this bottle of water was exactly the same as the fatal wound healing potion!

Finally, Yoona also gathered up her courage and took Zhao Xu’s potion, which had already changed color, and she walked towards the battlefield!
