Chapter 429
For characters in Arthur, if they wanted to improve their abilities, they would have the corresponding advancement, specialties, items, and other resources to choose from.
And for mages, the diversity of spells could lead to a huge improvement in direction.
The tier 8 reflex immunity bonus was an insurmountable peak for ordinary players. It was an astronomical figure that was difficult to solve, and it was equivalent to the key impact of a 40% success rate.
Even Level 3 or 4 players might not have such a strong reflex immunity.
But for Zhao Xu, that was all there was to it.
Level eight.
It’s not like it’s the eightieth step.
upgrade resistance (Level 6)! Zhao Xu immediately recalled the contents of the spell and used the mysterious runes on the final scroll to cast the spell on himself.
the advanced resistance increase spell was actually the equivalent of the level 0 spell, ” increase resistance, ” that zhao xu had already mastered. it was a completely different version.
This zero-circle spell could only increase the three major immunity points by one grade resistance bonus, and the duration was only one minute. Most players would think that it was useless.
However, when he reached Level 4, his [ greater resistance increase ] could increase his rank 3 resistance bonus.
On the other hand, the sixth-Circle’s ” advanced resistance increase ” could increase a full six levels, and its duration could even be as long as 24 hours without having to last long. It was successfully selected as the awakening buff for many mages.
spell duration-eye of Oracle (Level 6).
After the spell that increased his resistance took effect, Zhao Xu didn’t stop. He continued to cast the spell that could increase his defense and reflex by two levels.
Apart from the spell that instantly increased Zhao Xu’s reflex immunity to level 15, unless the specific confrontation process was too trashy and he only got a “Level 1” in the “Level 1 to 20” evaluation, there was no way he would fail the test of the star Cloak at level 15.
However, as an extremely popular spell, the only drawback was that it could only last for a round, and the eye of Oracle was naturally a particularly unique one.
It was one of the few spells that could be cast again other than the swift Burst series.
During the duration of the spell, Zhao Xu could end the spell at any time, and that would give him an extra time to do something.
In other words, it was bullet time, the same as Swift burst.
moreover, it was the kind of “standard action” time that was enough for him to cast a spell. it was unlike the lesser swift burst, which was short and had a small amount of time, and he didn’t even have time to cast a spell.
After that, as Zhao Xu continued to use spells to strengthen himself, the time freeze gradually came to an end.
At this moment, the flow of time went from ‘stopped’ to ‘extremely slow’.
This was because the advanced rapid explosion of the eighth-circle spell gave Zhao Xu an extra six seconds to complete a round.
Just now, he had only used a Standard Time to cast time stop. There was still some time left, enough for him to cast an instant spell and even move a part of the distance.
this was also the reason why it was extremely difficult for other professionals to fight against high-level mages.
This was because the other party was already a controller of the time dimension.
It was like a game of chess where one person played one step at a time. Suddenly, he realized that the black team could take one step after another, and it became a solo game by relying on various triggers.
Zhao Xu had plenty of trump cards up his sleeve, so for the first time, he didn’t try to attack the other party. He also wanted to take advantage of the fact that he had the final scroll and the power of a godly item to observe the true power of a legendary monster.
Otherwise, with his instant spells, he could still instantly cast level 5 spells with his level 9 spell slots even without using Supreme magic control.
Time returned to normal.
In an instant, the earth elemental God realized that its heavy and powerful punch had missed its target.
The enemy that he had imagined had actually retreated nearly five to six meters, directly leaving its attack range.
At this moment, the golems controlled by Lux and Vivian also caught up to Zhao Xu. They each stretched out a thick arm and tried to drag the earth elemental God away so that he wouldn’t get any closer to Zhao Xu.
However, the situation changed in an instant.
The earth elemental God was indeed being captured, but three rays of light of different colors instantly shot out from its body and attacked the area around where Zhao Xu was standing.
As soon as the rays of light touched the ground, they rapidly grew in size, finally becoming the other three Elemental Lords of similar size.
Such an extraordinary surprise attack was accompanied by the powerful attributes and reaction abilities of these elemental gods.
Zhao Xu didn’t even have to blink before he sensed three heavy punches coming at him at the same time.
The first attack that came was the storm fist that could destroy everything!
Zhao Xu was even able to use his eye of revelation to see through the wind elemental God’s attack and its power.
However, this kind of insight was like a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood.
It was as if he was a target that had been predicted to be shot. He knew that he would pull the trigger and the bullet’s trajectory would be aimed at him.
However, in the face of these Elemental Lords ‘powerful attacks, even if he was given a few seconds to move, he would still be as motionless as a wooden pillar.
“Bang!” Zhao Xu felt as if he had just been hit by a giant air cannon, and with a loud boom, his entire body was sent flying as if he had been hit by a heavy truck.
[ adventurer zhongxia, you have been attacked by the wind elemental Lord. Defense failed. ]
Zhao Xu could instantly feel the aura of death coming right at him.
The reflexes that he had stacked up directly stimulated the kinetic energy in his body, making him jump back abruptly.
At this moment, the cloak of stars that covered Zhao Xu’s entire body seemed weak, but it exploded with an infinite amount of light. It was like a meteor shower, and it was as if it was drawing countless silver threads that looked like they were knitting together in this space.
They immediately formed a huge barrier that protected Zhao Xu.
In an instant, the dimension that Zhao Xu had just created started to make a buzzing sound as if space was being torn apart.
[ adventurer zhongxia, you have activated your star cloak. you have passed the test of reflex evasion and received 100% damage reduction. ]
This was one of the few times that Zhao Xu felt threatened by a magic weapon.
This was the test of his reflex immunity at level 15.
It could be a slight angle of the body to avoid it, or it could be a simple step back.
With his own rank 15 reflexes, he naturally passed the test.
At the same time, Zhao Xu also felt the same two violent sounds of something breaking through the air coming from the back of his head.
A fist of flames that could burn everything.
It was the torrent fist that combined strength and gentleness.
The wind from the two Elemental Lords of fire and water’s punches were just a little slower than the wind element’s, and they landed on Zhao Xu’s body and attacked him.
But for Zhao Xu, this was just a repetition.
Although he was still not able to achieve the legendary invincible posture, where he could stand still and let the wind and rain hit him.
If he lost his consciousness or gave up on dodging, he would definitely eat up the attack.
As such, this physical immunity was more of a subjective physical immunity, and not an infinite defense buff.
However, this was enough.
Zhao Xu chuckled and continued to move forward in the same direction as before, avoiding the residual energy left behind after the cloak of stars nullified the impact. This was the test for reflex immunity to the 15th level.
It was a pity that Arthur wasn’t just a video game. Otherwise, he could just look at the panel check and practice without moving.
Zhao Xu also used his 28 points of intelligence to give his brain a strong ability to think, so he was able to slowly figure out what was going on in all sorts of critical moments.
At this moment, Zhao Xu heard a low explosion coming from behind him. He knew that these two sure-kill attacks that could have easily destroyed his defenses had been successfully dodged by him using the star Cloak.
Suddenly, Zhao Xu, who had been calm and collected, was shocked.
He was on fire.
However, the fire was suddenly extinguished.
It was only then that Zhao Xu noticed the two latest messages that had popped up on his status bar.
[ adventurer zhongxia, you have been hit by the fire elemental Lord’s attack. Reflex Dodge failed (difficulty level 67). You are affected by the fire elemental’s burning ability and are in a state of fire. ]
When he saw this sentence filled with so much information, Zhao Xu’s mind went through it countless times and he calculated the pros and cons almost a hundred times.
In the state of fire, it was as if he had been set on fire.
Once the Lord of fire element’s attack hit its target, it could put the target on fire. If one wanted to avoid being affected, they would have to Dodge it completely.
To ordinary creatures, this was a matter of life and death, but to him, it was not a big problem.
The ball of fire had not even been able to burn his body before it was extinguished by the soaking and splashing ability of the water elemental Goddess.
But this woke Zhao Xu up to a certain fact.
In the past, when he faced various undead creatures, once the opponent’s attack hit, it would invade with negative energy.
Once the exemption was not passed, one would fall into the corresponding negative state.
At that time, because the star Cloak ignored non-magic weapons, he ignored these attacks and naturally became immune to the corresponding debuffs.
However, when they encountered creatures like the elemental God, whose offensive abilities were seen as attacks from magic weapons, their attacks would no longer be ignored.
This also meant that even though Zhao Xu would be immune to 100% of the damage they dealt, he would still have to take on additional debuffs.
After the Lord of fire element’s attack hit Zhao Xu, it was followed by the power of “burning.
Zhao Xu could at least pass level 15, but heaven-defying burst could pass the reflex immunity of level 35.
However, the difficulty of the 60th or 70th step was equivalent to a huge wave coming at him, and he had no way to avoid it.
Fortunately, the elemental creatures did not have any negative status effects.
They weren’t like the undead creatures, who would weaken their Constitution and absorb energy.
At this moment, Zhao Xu also realized that he still couldn’t let go of his defensive abilities.
If the defense was over 100 levels, then it could barely be called a passive ‘physical immunity’.
