Chapter 887: Chapter 623: Better to Co at the Right Ti than to Co Early_2 Chapter 887: Chapter 623: Better to Co at the Right Ti than to Co Early_2 Luganis tightened the grip on her magic wand and looked nervously around, aghast at the enormity of the erosion inside the fortress—it was her first ti witnessing such a horrifying, revolting, and bizarre scene that could only be described as hellish.
“Wham!!”
As everyone turned around the corner, suddenly the wall next to Luganis collapsed and a deford monster roared as it raised its longsword and charged at them.
“Oh no!!”
Seeing the monster that suddenly appeared with its whole body swollen and green and full of twisted flesh, Luganis froze in terror. anwhile, Ogis simply pointed with her left hand, and a knight’s longspear rapidly ford from fine threads, impaling the deford monster’s chest and pinning it against the wall. In the next mont, black flas flowed down, engulfing the monster completely as quickly as flas engulf gasoline.
“Tsk tsk tsk, look at you.”
Duanmu Huai looked at Luganis disdainfully.
“A mage who just screams from the back, what use are you?”
“I—I’m just a mage!”
At that mont, Luganis was close to tears.
Was this really a constant criticism aid at ?
“I’m not like you and Miss Emilia; I don’t have any close combat abilities…”
“What are you talking about, I’m also a mage, a proper graduate from the Magic Academy.”
“…Huh?”
“Huh?”
Hearing Duanmu Huai’s reply, not only did Luganis freeze on the spot, even Emilia turned around in surprise to look at him.
“Mr. Duanmu, are you a mage?”
“What? You don’t believe it?”
Duanmu Huai snorted lightly, raised his left hand, and cast “Ice Spear Strike.” Instantly, several ice thorns appeared from nowhere and shot past, skewering a nearby Nagou Spirit, turning it into skewered at.
“???”
Seeing this, both Emilia and Luganis were stunned.
“Wait, is this so effect of magical items?”
“Do I look like the type to cheat? Let tell you, even without the War Hamr, I could smash you to death with magic!”
“No, but you’re wearing heavy armor. The failure rate of casting spells in heavy armor… Wait, why are you dressed like that?”
“Mage stuff, just cast Flash Technique then go all out with Whirlwind Slash, that’s all there is to it! You’re the one on the wrong path!”
“I’m on the wrong path?”
Luganis was left speechless.
She was one of the most outstanding graduates the Magic Academy had ever seen, how could she be on the wrong path? If Duanmu Huai went to the academy and said such things in front of the teachers… Well, they probably wouldn’t be able to do anything to him either.
Rembering Duanmu Huai’s fighting style, Luganis involuntarily shrank back.
“As for you…well, you can’t learn Whirlwind Slash, but learning a rogue’s Stealth could be quite useful.”
“You want , a mage, to learn rogue skills?”
Hearing this, Luganis couldn’t accept it.
“What’s the difference? If you learn Stealth and Silent Casting, you can hide and launch surprise attacks. Isn’t that better than being ambushed foolishly?”
What Duanmu Huai said was also a tactic often used by players in this world. This world was popular among players, partly because of its diverse range of magic. Although the attack spells were mostly seen as slightly underpowered by the players, the other spells were very useful to them.
Like the Mage’s Mansion, it’s essentially essential for players running large raids later on because most of these raids take place in the world of the Evil God, where even resting isn’t safe—you could be resting sowhere and suddenly find yourself contaminated by the enemy.
That’s when having a Mage’s Mansion becos crucial. Although a player-created space isn’t large, it can completely isolate external influences, allowing the team to rest comfortably.
So, when raiding later in the ga, it’s common to see requests on public chat like, “Need soone with Mage’s Mansion for 25-man raid ”
This was why Duanmu Huai’s first reaction upon learning Luganis was a mage was to ask her for the Mage’s Mansion.
After all, this item is pretty much essential for late-ga, and even if you don’t know it, you’d better have a team mber who does.
Thus, players in this world tended to learn a mix of different occupations. Everything from Magic Stealth Bow to War Poem Dragon was standard. Luganis, focusing entirely on being a mage, particularly an Energy Shaping mage, really made her undesirable for raids—a true outcast.
Luganis was lucky she didn’t know what Duanmu Huai was thinking; otherwise, she might have died of anger.
Although Duanmu Huai’s words weren’t nice, Luganis thought about it and realized there might be so truth in them. After all, due to her own issues, she often faced discrimination outside, and there had been instances where she was hunted. Sotis magic could solve the problem, but mostly it was her petite size that allowed her to escape. Luganis had never considered learning rogue skills, but hearing Duanmu Huai put it that way…it did seem quite useful?
Should she consider learning it after going back?
“Thump!!”
As Luganis pondered, a loud noise suddenly echoed, and upon looking up, she saw Duanmu Huai bursting through a door. Cultists sward out from inside only to be flattened against the wall by Duanmu Huai’s hamr, turning into a bloody mush.
