Sorry, This is My Door Now

On the side of the valley, inside an old air-raid shelter, a clear voice suddenly rang out:

"Thousands of trees, ten thousands of pear blossoms bloom!"

Under the moonlight, a young man wearing a baseball cap walked out, accompanied by a tall, thin young man with a stern face.

Not far away, the figure of a masked woman was also faintly visible.

Xu Nan glanced at the young man in surprise. The latter showed an apologetic expression: "Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your spellcasting."

"I heard you chanting smoothly and couldn't help but follow along with a line..."

His mouth was covered by the tall, thin young man.

"Quiet," he said calmly. "Don't talk too much nonsense. Zhao used Greater Lightning Storm, he wants to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys for us to see."

"Remember, you are already a qualified Professional. In the future, you will become a strong person above ten thousand others. You must have the demeanor of a strong person, there's no need to talk to these useless people."

He said these words as if they were a matter of course. The young man's eyes showed a wronged expression, but he seemed afraid to retort.

Along with Zhao's chanting, terrifying dark clouds gathered in the sky.

Within those thick dark clouds, powerful storm and lightning elements were gathering. In just over ten seconds, these lightning bolts would strike down, leveling the area at the mouth of the valley!

Just as the tall, thin young man said, what Zhao was doing was indeed killing a chicken to scare the monkeys.

The three Professionals who had purchased tickets had arrived early but had not shown themselves, likely having their own plans. It just so happened that Xu Nan and his group ran into the muzzle, so Zhao naturally had to show his powerful side as a Magician!

After all, in the Pro World, Magicians were widely recognized as the most powerful profession besides the Gods!

"Don't blame me for being ruthless! Anyone who disrupts my business must die!"

A hint of gloom flashed in Zhao's eyes as his chanting was about to reach its end.

Zhang Yingluo swung her saber within the Misty Step, consecutively cutting down three of Zhao's Straw Clones, finally correctly locking onto Zhao's true body.

But all of this seemed a little too late.

However, at this critical moment, Xu Nan finally completed his secret technique—Silent Wail!

This secret technique could be attached to any linguistic form and released successfully!

In terms of time, it only took about ten seconds!

"This secret technique is very suitable for insidious and cunning Warlocks!"

Xu Nan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but his mouth chanted loudly and seriously:

"...Thousands of trees, ten thousands of pear blossoms bloom!"

The young man in the baseball cap jumped up excitedly, pulling the tall, thin young man's hand and repeatedly saying, "Brother, look, I chanted it right!"

The young man looked speechless.

However, in the next second, a scene that stunned everyone occurred. Magician Zhao, who was originally chanting the final syllables of the Greater Lightning Storm, suddenly seemed to have his voice stuck!

Soon, the Misty Step at the valley entrance disappeared, and the dark clouds in the sky also became much thinner, only the wind and lightning elements within them became more restless.

His thin true body finally appeared. His face was ashen, as if he had suddenly been choked by a fishbone. Before Zhang Yingluo could rush over to slash him, he himself actually knelt on the ground and began to vomit blood in large mouthfuls!

"What a powerful poem!" The young man in the baseball cap was stunned.

The tall, thin young man showed an unprecedentedly solemn expression: "A Bard's Soul-Breaking Song? But there's no music?"

"You, you, you..."

Zhao coughed up blood while kneeling on the ground, staring intently at Xu Nan, his gaze making Xu Nan feel quite uncomfortable.

His entire body emitted the aura of a magic power rampage. Due to the effect of [Silent Wail], the first-ring spell Greater Lightning Storm he intended to cast was forcibly interrupted!

Without proper guidance from a mentor, not every Magician can withstand the consequences of a spell backlash.

Like now.

Xu Nan held Zhang Yingluo and Qin Lele, who wanted to go over and take a look, one in each hand.

Numerous fine currents appeared all over Zhao's body, and his facial features began to blur. Zzzzt, all the spells at the valley entrance dissipated, revealing a dazzling teleportation gate not far away.

Boom!

A lightning bolt as thick as a finger descended from the dark clouds, striking Zhao himself. The latter's body stiffened and trembled for a while, then he directly went into shock and fainted.

The dark clouds in the sky finally dispersed. Not far away, the sky was breaking, and dawn had arrived.

Qin Lele stared blankly at Xu Nan: "What poem did you chant that was so powerful? Why does that person in the baseball cap also know it? I've never heard of it."

Xu Nan said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't this poem in the Chinese textbook? Qin Lele, are you so careless about your nine-year compulsory education?"

Qin Lele looked ashamed: "I get sleepy when I see ancient poetry and prose."

Zhang Yingluo looked at Xu Nan: "But the point is, why did he fall like that? If I'm not mistaken, he had a very serious spellcasting error just now, which led to a spell backlash, right?"

Xu Nan explained with some guilt: "Maybe... maybe the poem I just chanted evoked some kind of memory in him, he was very moved, and for a moment he was distracted, so the spell failed."

"That makes sense!" The young man in the baseball cap couldn't help but applaud: "Poetry has the ability to move people's hearts. This poem is originally very well written. He couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion after hearing it. It's possible that he wanted to follow along and chant a few lines, and accidentally remembered the subsequent incantation for Greater Lightning Storm incorrectly!"

Xu Nan wished he could give the young man in the baseball cap a touching assist award, because the moment he spoke, the system prompted that the mission was completed.

This proved that his [Deception] was successful. At least for now, no one suspected his identity as a Bard!

[You have gained 5 Shame Points!]

[You have gained 1 extra free attribute point!]

Xu Nan, with tears in his eyes, allocated this attribute point to Charm!

His character sheet, the Charm option, after a slight adjustment, finally jumped from 19 to 20!

[Your Charm value has reached the extraordinary realm, gaining Extraordinary Charm!]

[Extraordinary Charm comes with the special ability - Universal Gravitation]

[Universal Gravitation: Your charm has the same attraction to all things]

The attached special ability, Universal Gravitation, was of course just an attachment. Xu Nan was already troubled by Radiant, and now adding Universal Gravitation didn't make him any happier.

He believed that if he went for a stroll in places like shopping malls, cinemas, or even gyms with Radiant and Universal Gravitation active, it would be difficult to even survive. Especially gyms, just thinking about himself covered in sweat... Xu Nan couldn't help but shiver.

What he cared about more was the bloodline ability awakening speed bonus brought by Extraordinary Charm!

For a Sorcerer, Charm is the most important main attribute. After obtaining Extraordinary Charm, his natural bloodline awakening speed would be twice as fast as before. This way, perhaps he wouldn't need to do embarrassing things and could still gain powerful strength through natural awakening!

Regardless, Xu Nan softly recited a poem. It was an undeniable fact that he had taken down the powerful Magician Apprentice.

Although Zhang Yingluo and the tall, thin young man had doubts, now was clearly not the time to pursue them.

Because everyone could see that the moment Magician Zhao fell, the teleportation gate in the valley began to tremble precariously!

"Damn it! You knocked out Zhao, the unstable teleportation gate might disappear!"

The tall, thin young man frowned, staring at Xu Nan: "We paid a lot of money for tickets to Pro World!"

The baseball cap wearing youth nodded in agreement: "My brother is right this time, we really went bankrupt to buy two tickets."

"You have to be responsible for us."

The person he was looking at was none other than Xu Nan.

And silently, the masked woman also appeared beside Xu Nan. Her voice had a hoarse charm: "I also bought a ticket. Be responsible."

Her words were concise and seemed very calm, but Xu Nan smelled a dangerous aura.

Zhang Yingluo looked at the three of them: "You three are all Professionals, right?"

"Why go to Pro World? Isn't Earth good?"

The baseball cap wearing youth said with a bitter face: "I had a falling out with my family, my brother took me to escape. If I don't escape to Pro World, I'll be caught and locked up for several years. My brother also has to marry that unreasonable woman..."

His mouth was covered by the tall, thin young man again.

"How many times have I told you, have some tact, don't be a chatterbox to everyone you meet." He scolded: "Changfeng! If you're this stupid again, I'll leave you on Earth alone!"

Changfeng immediately hugged the tall, thin young man's leg, looking pitiful with teary eyes.

The tall, thin young man also had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He sighed, pressed his hand on his brother's forehead, and said in a deep voice:

"Our going to Pro World seems to have nothing to do with you, does it?"

Zhang Yingluo thought for a moment, and finally took out a strange identification from herin his arms: "It really does have something to do with it."

"I'm from the Thousandlight Society... The Professionals in the H City area are temporarily under our department's jurisdiction."

"Junior Xu Nan, student A-Kun, I'm very sorry for hiding it from you... Huh?"

Just as she was about to explain her true identity to the two of them, she found that Xu Nan and A-Kun had somehow run over to the teleportation gate!

"Can you fix this teleportation gate?"

The masked woman appeared and disappeared like a ghost.

Xu Nan gently stroked the teleportation gate, and the teleportation gate suddenly let out a creaking laugh.

The next second, a complex contract flashed in front of Xu Nan. Xu Nan gently tapped it, and a strange feeling surged into his mind.

Just then, Magician Zhao slowly woke up. Seeing this scene, he roared: "Don't touch my teleportation gate!"

"I'll kill you!"

His voice was dry and somewhat hysterical.

Xu Nan silently felt the knowledge surging into his mind, then opened his eyes, revealing a hint of apology:

"Sorry, it's my teleportation gate now."

...!
