140 chapter 139/fear

The strange laughter was accompanied by the piercing sound of nails scratching the blackboard from time to time. It was shrill and deep, as if it was going to tear the barrier of people’s hearts.

After six seconds, the sound seemed to slowly fade away, and only the echoes still echoed in the forest.

[ adventurer zhongxia, you have successfully resisted the fear effect. ]

Suddenly, Zhao Xu saw this post appear on his screen.

Since he didn’t know the source of the sound, the status didn’t show the details of the check.

“wind.” lu called out to zhao xu anxiously.

zhao xu heard that her tone wasn’t quite right and quickly turned around. he saw that the female wizard shadow was trembling all over, and it wasn’t a small thing.

Zhao Xu’s expression changed.

if the female mage continued like this, the player protection function of the vr brainer would be activated and she would be forcefully disconnected.

it was reasonable to say that even if the exemption failed, shadow would not be so depressed because of the protection of divine power.

moreover, that strange laughter had clearly disappeared.

” she was disturbed by the state of the exemption failure. ” The female wizard, Lu, quickly said.

However, she did not have any way to help shadow for the time being.

zhao xu suddenly realized that the strange laughter was the first wave of attacks.

he and lu managed to withstand it because of their strong will immunity, while shadow failed, so he was affected by the fear effect.

when zhao xu first saw the dragon, he had been suppressed by the dragon’s supernatural power, ferocious and powerful.

Although he was not afraid after the exemption failed, the negative effects of the exemption failure had been bothering him and even affected his normal casting.

he only recovered after the fear time was over.

this was also the case for shi ying. the negative effects of her immunity failure had magnified her originally somewhat abnormal mental state.

it was as if she had really been frightened at the moment, and she was in a state of complete uneasiness.

Most normal players could recover after surviving the duration of fear.

However, this plan was obviously not suitable for Ying.

“resuscitate,” the female wizard, lu, reminded zhao xu softly.

Zhao Xu’s eyes narrowed slightly. He didn’t think that Lu would be so straightforward as to tell him what spell he was going to use.

as expected, he was too arrogant when he used magic.

the lion’s heart spell that zhao xu had cast on the corridor of the eighth floor was actually a spell that made him immune to fear.

The only price was that the duration was too short.

now that shadow had fallen into fear, it was useless to cast any more immunity spells on her.

The ” recovery ” that Lu mentioned was similar to a spell to stop damage.

As an extended divine spell for priests and Paladins, it was not in the scope of the standard God-given divine spells. Generally, it could only be obtained by extra luck.

the biggest use of resuscitation was to allow the subject to cast another exemption after the exemption failed.

It was equivalent to a life that had already failed to roll the dice, and now he was given another chance to gamble.

even though the difference in strength was too great, it would still be difficult to save him.

However, for those who were just unlucky, it was a life-saving opportunity.

The current shadow was just like that. As a mage, her will immunity was not low.

If Zhao Xu and the others could pass the exemption test, then shadow would naturally be able to pass the test as well.

zhao xu immediately used the spell slots that he had left as an archivist and used his bizarre premonition to cast the spell, revive.

slowly, a stream of pure recovery energy started to gather in zhao xu’s palm.

this was a touch spell, and like healing spells, it required contact to transfer the effect of the spell.

Zhao Xu immediately placed his palm on Shadow’s forehead. It was already very cold to the touch.

At this moment, Lu was barely able to hold onto Shi Ying’s body, otherwise, he would have fallen to the ground.

after the ball of energy entered shadow’s body through his forehead, it took a full three seconds before the female wizard, shadow, said in a weak voice, ” “Thank you, I’m fine.”

however, his voice was as hoarse as a patient who had just recovered from a serious illness.

“Should we just forget it?” Lu bent down slightly and asked with her head lowered.

zhao xu also lowered his head and tried to see shadow’s expression.

however, the dark red sky that seemed to have been dyed by the blood moon did not reflect much light.

It made Zhao Xu a little tempted to cast the eye of ebony spell on himself.

this way, he would obtain darksight and see through the darkness caused by ordinary or even magic.

He didn’t even need to think to know that the forest of prophecy was the result of the darkness created by magic.

The mournful and eerie laugh just now was probably one of the special effects of this forest.

“I’m fine,” she said. At this moment, Yingying had already managed to stand up.

To others, she had always displayed a very reliable image. This was the first time she had been so weak in front of others.

“thank you very much.” ying nodded slightly and thanked zhao xu.

“no, it’s not necessary. lu told me to use resuscitation.”

zhao xu said awkwardly. at that time, his first reaction was that he had missed the chance to cast the fear immunity spell, and he had forgotten that there was a spell called “revive” that could end the status effect.

in reality, at higher levels, there were even more spells that could resist all sorts of negative effects. but right now, zhao xu could only use these normal level 1 spells to get by.

after hearing what zhao xu said, lu smiled and shook her head. “shadow pinched his leg and told me the second before he fell into fear.”

after zhao xu heard this, he started to think a lot more highly of shadow’s method of leaving a distress signal even after falling into a pit.

With such a teammate, anyone would be able to save a lot of trouble.

I knew you wouldn’t remember, so I specially reminded you. Ahem, ahem, Yingluo, but thank you very much, otherwise I would have been disconnected just now.

zhao xu accepted her thanks, but it sounded a little harsh.

He smiled. if you really want to thank me, then don’t secretly use your ‘you draw and I guess’ to communicate behind my back. Don’t think that I didn’t hear the sound of my robe rubbing against me.

immediately, the two female mages, who were originally very unyielding, revealed an awkward expression.

Even after Zhao Xu received the +4 hearing enhancement, he still managed to pick up on the sounds they were making when they were secretly conversing.

“you can hear this,” ying continued stubbornly. “why didn’t you hear me say ‘resuscitate’ to lu?”

zhao xu laughed out loud when he heard this.

Ying wasn’t really asking him, but telling him a fact.

when he had heard that strange laughter, zhao xu had also been in a state of panic, which was why he hadn’t even heard shadow’s warning.

on the other hand, lu, who was also a girl, heard it.

“Let’s go,” he said. zhao xu stood up and said.

The two female mages also stood up after hearing this.

The three of them continued to move forward as they analyzed what had just happened.

in just a few words, the whole incident was almost pieced together.

according to lu’s speculation, the strange sound was an area-of-effect sound wave attack, which should have swept over in waves.

they had felt something strange at first, but in fact, they were carrying out a terrifying sound wave suppression in other areas.

when the terrifying sound wave attacked their area, they, who were listening attentively, almost got exempted from the unfavorable punishment.

Finally, everyone’s will immunity was strong enough, and two of them managed to survive.

if the entire army was annihilated, they would basically be waiting for death.

This was because shadow had said that the fear effect would last for 120 rounds (12 minutes).

this was also the reason why they suspected that it was an area effect. otherwise, how could such an overpowered spell or monster effect last so long?

back when zhao xu had to endure the dragon’s might, he had only needed to last for 5d6 (5 – 30) rounds.

This might also mean that the voice would attack again in 12 minutes.

so zhao xu and the other two quickly picked up their pace and walked through a forest of thorns. even though the three of them had the protection of their wizard armor, their robes were still in tatters.

however, before the three of them could look at each other and smile, they discovered a vast field of vision in front of them.

a huge chasm cut through the originally flat ground in front of him, revealing a bottomless abyss.

looking at the cliff in front of them, the three of them adjusted the position of the invisible servant and silently approached.

at this moment, the bright red blood moon seemed to have been zoomed in countless times. the entire moon image was like half a mirror on the flat ground opposite the abyss, looking at them from a distance.

Zhao Xu gently kicked a small rock into the abyss and made sure that he couldn’t hear an echo at all. Then, he decisively stepped back three meters.

“There’s a stone tablet here.” lu knelt down not too far away and said. zhao xu and shadow quickly walked over.

the stele was less than half a meter tall, but it was stuck into the ground. there were already a few cracks on it, like a dense spider web.

“if you can understand the incantation on the tablet, you will see the bridge to the other shore.” The shadow thought spoke.

This chasm spanned at least a hundred meters, and it was indeed difficult for ordinary people to cross without wings.

“then, let’s read the inscriptions.” ying suggested at this time. this was exactly what she was good at.

the female wizard stared at the abyss in front of her and nodded slowly. “that’s all for now.”

Generally speaking, it was easy to fall into the other party’s trap if one followed the solution.

Even if the interpretation was successful and the suspension bridge appeared, it was possible that there would be pursuers on both sides.

therefore, it was often more effective to skip the question setter’s thoughts and fly on the bridge.

especially for people like them who were involved in the game.

however, a floating disc would disappear one meter above the ground, so it couldn’t be used as a flight cushion.

at this moment, the three of them also began to look at the mysterious characters below the stele and prepared to interpret them.

” i’m afraid that my knowledge (mys) level would have to be very high. ” ying, who was reading attentively, quickly came to a conclusion.

they were the three highest-level players in arthur.

even though everyone was only at a pathetic level 2, it also meant that their knowledge (mysterious) skills were all at level 5.

if they were also difficult to deal with, then there really weren’t many players who could.

save us! Hurry up and save us!

suddenly, a cry for help came from behind zhao xu and the others.

the three of them turned around with dark expressions.

he saw three people with blood-stained faces running out of the prophecy forest. they were the three mages who had been sitting across from the bonfire.
