The Truth of Magic



83 the mysterious treasure

after noah climbed into the carriage, his face was still pale and devoid of blood.

After he was hit by the ghost that night, not only did he lose his HP, but he also lost several attributes.

Basically, after the residents of Arthur suffered from attribute losses, they had to lie down.

The recovery speed of his stats was the same as his HP. He would recover one point of his stats after 8 hours of rest, and two points after 24 hours of rest.

For example, Fengye and the others did not manage to survive the ” terrifying appearance ” curse after seeing the ghost’s appearance and suffered some attribute losses. After a few days of rest, they had mostly recovered.

noah was the only one who had been attacked by a spirit, which was why his vitality had not fully recovered, as if he had been seriously ill.

the space in the carriage was not small. noah found an empty seat and sat down. he coughed a few times and said, ” this wasn’t part of our plan, but it happened so suddenly that i received a message from the leader’s messenger. ”

hearing this, everyone in the carriage frowned. fengye and the others did not know the use of communication spells, but they could tell that something was wrong from noah’s grim expression.

” the leader asked us to change our route and go to a secret underground city to retrieve something from it. we will send it to caso and butan city together. ” noah said, ” the team should have avoided this situation, but this is an urgent matter. moreover, the underground city is not far from here. we only need to take a detour for half a day. ”

” that’s why i’m going to complete the leader’s orders. i also hope to get your help. ” Noah lowered his head and said seriously.

zhao xu’s group of five couldn’t beat noah’s dozens of people, but in terms of individual combat power, they wouldn’t fall behind. it could even be said that apart from people like youyou who had lost their abilities, zhao xu’s group of four could be in the top ten of this team if they were separated.

“So anxious that you can’t communicate through the online and offline channels of the adventurers on earth?”

Zhao Xu didn’t want to overshadow the main character in such an unusual event, so he asked directly.

Noah nodded seriously.

Zhao Xu was frowning. That leader, iz, had players with her. every day, maple leaf would go online and log off. according to noah’s needs, he would report the team’s information to that player, who would then go online and pass on the information to leader ise.

of course, the leader was aware of the tragic situation of their team every day.

This was also the reason Noah had to bring Fengye and the others.

it was just that this method of communication basically only happened once or twice a day, unless the big guilds arranged for their members to take turns to log in and out at a fixed time.

that means that leader ise didn’t even wait for the fixed communication time tonight and directly contacted noah from thousands of miles away with a spell that could only allow one or two sentences?

communication was a level five arcane spell and a level four divine spell.

For the same spell, a wizard had to be at level 9 to cast it, but a priest could do it at Level 7.

However, even a level 7 priest would have to pay a high price to use a messaging spell, unlike the players who could be dismissed with a few silver coins.

zhao xu could vaguely sense the crux of the problem, but he was quite confident, so he continued to listen to what noah had to say.

the leader will let your people tell you the details of the underground city tonight. We will station outside and wait for Mr. Maple Leaf to receive the news before we explore the underground city.

” as for the reward, the leader can’t go into details because of the communication restrictions, but i can promise you that mr. maple leaf, you’ll double your previous reward. as for mr. zhongxia, i’ll give you a satisfactory reward when we reach caso city. ”

when zhao xu heard this, he didn’t comment.

In order to make a living, one had to make a name for themselves. If Noah said that he was satisfied, then it must be to a satisfactory extent.

As for Fengye and the others, after hearing that the reward had been doubled, they were already overjoyed.

Zhao Xu couldn’t help but shake his head. It was just a few gold coins.

the buried city was not like the vast plains in the wild. not to mention the traps set up inside, just the layout of the buried city would cause them to fall into a situation where they would fight to the death in secret chambers at any time.

In Zhao Xu’s previous life, he had once been hit by a magic trap in an underground city. He had been lucky enough to survive, but he hadn’t found a priest to heal himself completely. Every time it rained, he would feel a sharp pain in his leg.

And after that night’s battle, Fengye didn’t dare to make any decisions on his own. He continued to look at Zhao Xu and wait for him to say something.

let’s go and take a look first. As for the specific actions, we’ll see tonight’s intelligence. Zhao Xu thought about it and agreed.

after lying in the carriage for a few days, he wouldn’t refuse without listening to the situation.

just like that, the wheels of zhao xu’s carriage started spinning, and the front of the carriage started moving at a different angle towards the buried city.

Zhao Xu was observing the landscape outside the carriage as he compared it to the map and started calculating.

when the three blood moons rose again and covered the entire night sky of the arthur main material plane, noah’s fleet had also arrived near the underground city.

It was only an hour’s journey from here to the lightning Canyon on the map.

leader noah sent people to search the surrounding area and finally found a mine that had been abandoned for a long time. according to the contents of the message, the entrance to the underground city was in the depths of the mine, and the location was extremely hidden.

Even if ordinary people really passed by, they generally wouldn’t court death by entering such a mine pit. Who knew what undead creatures were being nurtured inside?

After Noah arranged for the team to set up camp, Fengye came online again and brought him the message from his friend-leader yise’s instructions.

zhao xu and the others were sitting in a circle with noah in the tent. there were a few of noah’s trusted subordinates around them, but when they heard fengye’s story, they all frowned.

The information about this underground city was accidentally intercepted by yise’s men. They could only make a preliminary judgment that there was some kind of treasure in it, but the specific risks were hard to determine.

More importantly, there was no guarantee that this information could be kept secret for a long time. It could be learned by other forces at any time.

It was possible that some of the forces had already left for this place, which was why yise had asked someone to inform them first.

“What do you all think?” After Fengye finished speaking, Noah looked at Zhao Xu and the others and said, ” you guys don’t have to worry. Even if you don’t want to participate, you’ll just have to wait for one day. if we don’t come up after a day, my men will continue to set off with you to kasuo and butan according to the original plan.”

One day was the time given to them by yise. If they couldn’t reach the heirloom within a day, they would give up.

The current players didn’t have much experience in exploring the buried city.

fengye had just searched on the forum, but he was also confused.

zhao xu just looked at the deep, dark pit and lowered his head without saying a word.

The underground heirloom that even ise had to stop her smuggling trade with a city like kasobutan to search for was definitely real, and the heirloom was definitely valuable.

If he had used a level 4 spell just to save time, then if the heirloom wasn’t worth more than ten thousand gold pieces, Zhao Xu would have smashed his own aen stone.

The question was, should he go in as well?

Zhao Xu walked a few steps around the corner of the tent and saw that Fengye and the others were starting to get restless. He touched the mark on his back.

“I’ll accept this mission,”

zhao xu remembered what antonya had told him before, so he decided to see what kind of heirloom it was.

at the same time, he secretly thought that if the return was not enough to satisfy him when he reached caso and butan city, he would use these goods to pay off the debt.
