A Full-Fledged Mage
In comparison, the wrought iron industry in the Kalu World is really poor, and it's impossible to forge any decent steel.
In reality, while mechanical equipment can produce excellent steel, it is incompatible with magical equipment.
Arriving at a blacksmith's shop, and confirming that it housed one of the best blacksmiths in the capital city, World No. 21 Miss immediately went inside.
Clang! Clang!
The sound of forging iron is reassuring.
Miss World's gaze fell on the master who was striking.
He was just one of a large group of people who were busy working.
"Intermediate Rank."
I could tell this person's level at a glance.
She didn't observe much, and after confirming that there were several skilled blacksmiths inside the house, she left.
Blacksmithing is not considered a very high-level profession in this world.
However, if a blacksmith reaches the Intermediate Rank level, he becomes a strategic resource for a country.
As for advanced blacksmiths, they are not meant to serve ordinary people at all.
If one wants such a person to help them, they need a higher-level authority to provide proof. Alternatively, they could directly acquire a higher-ranking status.
"That's the path to becoming Mage."
Miss World 24 has already acquired all the magic that can be exchanged in Dusk in one go.
But this was not enough for her to pass the exam to become Mage.
Because the first hurdle... is that you can't even pass the basic knowledge test.
"Then I'll have to fight the president of the Magic Guild."
That guy is the leader of the entire guild and a recognized Saint Rank Archmage, one of the top figures in the Star-Net Empire.
Getting a Mage's robe and badge from him shouldn't be a problem.
Even walking along the relatively quiet street, people were still paying attention to me.
Miss Cannon Fodder 24 was walking along when she suddenly stopped.
"Hmm, so it was there all along?"
That makes things easier.
A strange smile appeared on her lips as she turned and walked into the alleyway next to her.
A few thugs were sitting idly in the distance when they suddenly saw a petite and stunningly beautiful girl walking towards them. Two of them immediately swallowed hard.
Generally speaking, thugs in the capital city are not very likely to cause any major trouble.
But it depends on the situation. In this case, if a seemingly weak but incredibly cute girl comes here alone, they can't help but be tempted.
As long as you're careful, you can have a great time and handle everything flawlessly...
Just as they were about to make their move, they suddenly felt a chill on their necks.
The girl walked between them, and five heads fell to the ground.
The three survivors all had blank expressions.
World No. 24 Miss walked by silently, and the three stunned people collapsed to the ground, too frightened to make a sound.
"What happened? What's going on?"
Their minds were a complete mess, utterly unaware that Ye Xin was secretly using Spirit Thread to slit their throats.
"It's getting dark. The president will pass through the less crowded backstreet around 8 pm. Hmph, that makes things easier. We can just face him head-on then."
That's the highest leader of the Imperial Magic Guild, with extraordinary strength. To be honest, if they were to fight directly, World No. 24 Miss is certain she would lose 100%.
Because the average combat power of people in this world is indeed exaggerated.
When he fought bandits before, he could deal with them quickly, but those bandits below level 10 all had white skills, and one even had a green skill, which was really outrageous.
"I'll use this time to search with another body and see if I can sneakily acquire a couple of decent skills. That'll also fill out Dusk's skill pool. This world is really great."
At this time, Ye Qian was also looking for more time, but after the other bodies entered, they found that the place was deserted.
The only place with people is right here.
Chapter 183 The Formal Mage
Time passed second by second, and it became completely dark.
World No. 24 Miss crouched quietly atop a building, looking down at the scene below.
At this moment, several other clones are searching for information about skills in different areas of this world.
Among them, World No. 23 Miss infiltrated the home of a high-level swordsman and obtained several skill books.
[Execution Sword Technique (White)]
[Wave Void Slash (Green)]
[Zero Point Execution (Green)]
After analyzing it, World No. 23 added it to Dusk's inventory, returned the book, and made his escape.
"The Dusk System can now analyze skills more efficiently. Is it because of Amia?"
Meanwhile, World 24 sneaked into the home of a powerful Mage and rummaged through his belongings, finding three books containing records of magic spells.
"Does this world need incantations? Oh, there's silent chanting."
Although the magic in this world is different, the techniques and such still have commonalities with other worlds.
Once you've grasped the core, you don't need any incantations at all.
[Fire - Flame Serpent (Green)]
[Wind Dimensional Slash (Green)]
[Water Element Ball (White)]
"Can."
They've run away.
While green skills are common in this world, they are not something everyone possesses; they are relatively rare.
Conversely, the blue ones are much harder to find.
This rating was given by the Proliferation System, and it's the same as the skill level mastered by Ye Qian's clone.
Therefore, its gold content is absolutely certain.
According to the information she gathered in that short time, green skills are generally only fully mastered by high-level Mage. This is because low-level Mage cannot comprehend the profound knowledge involved, nor can they fully unleash the power of their magic.
Similarly, martial arts skills are the same.
Although some low-level warriors have high talent and can learn green skills, they can only be said to have barely grasped the basics.
For example, the bandits we killed earlier.
"If you calculate it that way, Blue Skill are the standard requirement for a Saint Rank Archmage."
After learning all these skills, World No. 24 Miss sensed someone approaching.
After a quick check, a slight smile appeared on her lips.
"Are they here?"
Before the battle began, he took one last sip of Water of Purification.
She then gently slid down from the roof and walked toward her target.
Greva walked down the street.
This is the road he usually takes home. Because it is located in an important noble district, the management is strict at night, and ordinary people don't usually choose to walk here.
Therefore, for him, this was a time-consuming walk during the day.
He wore a dark black robe with white stripes and a gold wreath emblem on the chest, signifying his status.
Saint Rank Archmage!
One of the strongest in the entire Star-Net Empire.
Greva, who had cultivated for 135 years before breaking through to this level, had a full head of white hair, but was still full of energy.
Such a person would normally command the utmost respect from anyone who met him. Even the emperor of the empire would not warrant his bow, let alone anyone daring to challenge him.
Just then, as he walked in the darkness, he suddenly sensed something and slowly stopped.
With his powerful mental strength, he had already sensed the figure in the distance.
In the shadows, a stunningly dressed girl (people of this era had never seen a schoolgirl skirt before) slowly emerged.
She held a slender, sharp blade in her hand, the weapon made using a technique she didn't understand, and a strange smile appeared on her delicate face.
"Saint Rank Archmage, Mr. Greva, it's a pleasure to meet you!"
"Oh?" The old man looked surprised.
Although he held a high position, he wasn't someone who would recognize just anyone he met on the street.
Ah, of course, it's normal for him to be recognized now that he's wearing Mage's uniform with a gold badge, but there must be a special reason why he specifically appeared on this road to block my way.
The girl's face was indeed hard to associate with an ordinary commoner; she gave off a troublesome feeling. She probably didn't just randomly block his way.
Especially at this moment, she silently gripped the knife at her waist.
"Young lady, do you intend to attack this old man?" A smile appeared on the old man's face.
He didn't care about an ordinary girl at all. Even if the empire's strongest holy general stood in front of him, he would have to think twice before trying to deal with a mage who had reached the Saint Rank.
"Of course... I'd like to see you, but I'm not worthy of the title of Saint Archmage."
As she spoke, the girl drew the knife from her waist and slowly accelerated forward.
"Heh, kids these days." The old man chuckled helplessly, not wanting to stoop to the level of that cute girl.
He had to admit that she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen in his life.
They clearly heard about my great name from somewhere and wanted to see for themselves.
In fact, such children admire their so-called holy mage more than they admire him.
Just you...
As the girl quickened her pace, she swung her blade, and several Dimensional Slash suddenly flashed past, instantly breaking through to the front of her.
Greva's pupils dilated suddenly, then contracted sharply as he instinctively raised his staff.
"Wind God Shield!"
Bang!
The wind-elemental Dimensional Slash struck the hastily cast Magic Shield, shattering it instantly with the first two strikes, while the final strike grazed past Greva.
He watched this scene in shock.
"Silent?"
Not only is it the silent spell that countless Mage dream of, but it also allows one to unleash three strikes without any preparation or action, simply by using the weapon in hand.
This... is already the ultimate expression of cultivating both Martial Dao and magic to their fullest potential.
This petite girl is actually... a practitioner of both magic and martial arts?
Buzz—
The blade slashed horizontally, and the girl's body approached from below. The green Martial Dao skill Wave Void Slash, stabbed towards the opponent's chin.
With a wave of his staff, Greva created two Magic Shield once again.
