Chapter 125
“What? Job change to Mage?!”
Sheng Wenyu couldn’t help but widen his eyes when he heard these words.
“What are the conditions? I’ll do whatever it takes to job change to Mage!”
Sheng Wenyu is a typical Mage enthusiast!
Although due to the job change sculpture, Sheng Wenyu could only job change to Warrior, he still held a yearning for the Mage class.
He had long since raised his Mental Power to above ten points, giving rise to his Mental Power.
Scanning his surroundings with his Mental Power, Sheng Wenyu took a deep breath.
“Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Today, I must job change to Mage!”
Sheng Wenyu immediately took the flyer handed to him by his subordinate and carefully browsed through it.
“Spell Structure? Nine Spell Nodes? Spell Pathway?”
“How do you use these nodes? Draw them out or construct them?!”
Sheng Wenyu immediately thought of the previous condition, Mental Power reaching ten points.
Combining the two conditions in his mind, Sheng Wenyu instantly understood that the key to releasing this Minor Spell was Mental Power.
He immediately started to try it out.
However…
One Spell Node after another, one Spell Pathway after another, each more complex than the last, Sheng Wenyu’s head started to ache just looking at them.
“Isn’t being a Mage just about throwing fireballs? What is this?!”
Sheng Wenyu shook his head and immediately tried to study it, figuring out how to use his Mental Power to condense Spell Nodes.
Sheng Wenyu originally thought that with his intelligence, these would be a piece of cake. Surely he wouldn’t fail even the Mage’s introductory selection, right?
But as time slowly passed, Sheng Wenyu’s expression gradually turned serious.
After a while, Sheng Wenyu’s expression gradually became solemn.
After a long time, Sheng Wenyu’s brows furrowed bit by bit, then he silently covered the flyer with his left hand, took a deep breath, and said softly,
“Being a Warrior is pretty good too. It’s fine if I don’t become a Mage!”
Sheng Wenyu looked at the flyer beside him and asked the person next to him,
“Were these all brought from Fang Bai’s side?”
“Yes.”
“Then distribute them. Let anyone who’s interested take a look.”
“Wouldn’t this lead to everyone who can learn it running off to Fang Bai’s place?”
Sheng Wenyu looked at his deputy and smiled.
“You think that if we don’t distribute them, we can stop them from seeing this? You think that if we try to stop them, we can stop them from leaving?”
“Uh…”
“Let them go if they want to go. No one can stop them anyway. If they want to go, as long as they can meet the conditions, what’s wrong with me personally leading a team to escort them there?”
“I can even use resources to support them in going to Fang Bai’s place to learn. Building a good relationship will always have benefits in the future, no harm.”
“But what if we nurture an ungrateful wretch and end up with nothing? And wouldn’t this make us appear to be in a lower position?”
Sheng Wenyu rolled his eyes upon hearing this.
“One might be an ungrateful wretch, and it might make us seem to be in a lower position, so can’t we just send a few more, cultivate a few more? As long as one of them has a conscience, wouldn’t we have the possibility of going from having no Mages to having Mages?”
Sheng Wenyu said with a chuckle.
“Go ahead. Maybe our company can produce a few talented individuals.”
“Okay.”
And this was just one corner. In the land of Shen Shan Town, there was only one topic today.
Mage!
Fang Bai!
Spell Node!
Job Change to Mage!
After experiencing the bombardment of Spell Scrolls, job changing to Mage held a fatal attraction for everyone, even for the previous city survivors. Everyone longed to meet Fang Bai’s requirements and become a Mage.
Of course, this day also gave everyone a deeper understanding of Mages.
The seemingly simple test questions were not something that many people could complete.
Many people had Mental Power, and many people had the ability to condense a Spell Node using elements combined with Mental Power. But it was not easy to condense nine Spell Nodes in succession, maintain their relative positions, and connect them one by one using Elemental Pathways.
Even if you asked someone to draw it with a pen, they would draw it crooked, let alone using Mental Power.
You have to know that Mental Power fluctuates with thoughts. During the construction process, as long as there are distracting thoughts, the Mental Power will fluctuate accordingly, which will affect the formation of the Spell Structure. And this is the first threshold to becoming a Mage.
Calm the mind! Focus! Suppress distracting thoughts!
This alone could filter out more than ninety percent of modern people.
Therefore, the most common sentence heard within the marketing department was,
“This Mage, I’d rather not be!”
However, there were some exceptions.
In a hidden corner of Shen Shan Town, flames suddenly surged in front of a thin young man.
The young man looked at the extinguished flames in front of him with a calm expression, picked up the flyer, and looked at the last few words.
Mage Fang Bai.
The same flames surged up in one place after another within Shen Shan Town. Fang Bai was right. No matter how few people had Mage talent, under the base of the population, quite a few seedlings could still be born.
Survivors who successfully released the Minor Spell one after another began to gather towards Yi Hao Village, and survivors who were unable to release the Minor Spell also began to approach Yi Hao Village.
The apocalypse had arrived, the game was gone, but they still had to watch the excitement.
And just at the edge of Stone City, a middle-aged man covered in blood held a swaddled baby tightly in his arms. Inside the swaddle was a quiet child with a jade pendant hanging around their neck.
The middle-aged man ran forward quickly, his face filled with fear. He kept looking back as he ran, but he found nothing. But the more this happened, the more intense the fear on his face became.
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and kept applying a kind of powder and a kind of oil on the swaddle and the baby. After applying it evenly, the man gritted his teeth and threw it to the side.
During the throw, the light distorted, and a shield enveloped the child. The child didn’t feel any vibrations when it fell to the ground. And the moment it touched the ground, the color of the shield distorted and quickly assimilated with the earth. In the blink of an eye, both the shield and the child disappeared without a trace.
And just after a mere few dozen seconds, the area where the child disappeared experienced a burst of light distortion. A monster with a pair of sickles appeared in the surroundings. Its triangular head looked around, and a hint of confusion could be seen in its eyes.
And at this moment, a steel ball shot towards it at high speed. The monster’s wings on its back flashed, and it appeared several meters away.
The moment it landed, the monster let out a roar towards the middle-aged man, then the light around its body distorted, and the entire monster disappeared without a trace. Only distorted light could be seen moving rapidly towards the running middle-aged man. And a few seconds later, the distorted light returned to normal.
At this moment, the middle-aged man, clutching a sixteen-strand slingshot, ran forward desperately. Three skill lights erupted from his body in succession, and his speed instantly increased significantly as he sprinted rapidly.
And at the edge of Stone City, a survivor walked out holding a wooden knife.
