Chapter 27: "God-Tier · Multicast"
"The reason why more geniuses awaken before the age of 16."
"It's because their spirituality is strong. Strong spirituality attracts more attention, and attention is almost equivalent to a blessing."
"The more attention received, the more blessings one obtains."
"Little Lu Cang."
"The attention on you is so dense it can't be dispersed..."
"You must have received much favor from the Source."
Lu Cang opened his eyes and woke up.
This was the first time he had been startled awake by a dream since arriving in this world.
Yesterday, after Kumiloni had purified the pollution of attention from him and healed his body, he had felt his consciousness float away.
His body had felt heavy and sluggish.
He couldn't even remember how he got back to his room or how he fell asleep.
This feeling of a muddled consciousness seemed to have begun after he leveled up yesterday.
He had been so disoriented that he forgot to even feel the changes within himself after advancing to a Level 2 Mage.
He sat up from the bed.
The sky outside was still dark. He looked up at the wall clock.
4:30 AM.
"Constant Lamp (Tier 1) (LV: 101)--Once activated, it consumes magic to maintain a long-lasting illumination, lighting up a vast area with gentle light. Within the range, there are no blind spots. When not activated, one's vision possesses an equally bright field of view."
The transcendent magic of a Tier 1 Illumination Technique—Constant Lamp.
He no longer needed to suspend a light source himself.
Even without activating this magic, Lu Cang could easily see things in the dark.
When he did activate this magic, it was usually to allow his teammates to see clearly as well.
His consciousness should be completely clear now.
Lu Cang felt the changes within himself.
If his magic power before advancing was 10,000, his current magic power was 700,000.
It was truly a lot.
The normal magic power range for a Level 2 Mage seemed to be around 100-500.
However, magic power wasn't a very important thing.
Whether it was 700,000 or 200,000, in the current stage, there was no situation where he could possibly deplete all his magic power.
A little more or less made little difference.
The important thing was.
After he advanced to Level 2 Mage.
The proficiency of his transcendent magic had started to increase again.
He had initially thought that once a spell reached Level 101, its usage would no longer increase proficiency.
Lu Cang had thought that was the true limit.
But now, it seemed it was only because his own level hadn't broken through.
Besides his magic proficiency level continuing to rise.
He also seemed to have received a unique blessing.
"Mage Mastery—Transcendent (Exclusive): Casting any magic with a proficiency level greater than 100 will yield more proficiency. All spells with proficiency levels over 100 will gain significantly enhanced magical effects."
"Transcendent."
Lu Cang raised his hand slightly, and ice shards condensed around him.
The magic power consumption was almost negligible, less than what was required before advancing.
Furthermore, the number of ice shards he could condense had increased to 14.
The quantity had doubled.
Flight speed—
Lu Cang tried to control them.
They were faster than before, nearly 50% faster.
As for power and other aspects, it was inconvenient to test in the inn, but he imagined the power had also increased significantly.
If he were to fight that Giant Snake now, it would likely be an instant kill.
"Mage Mastery—Mana Flow (Limitless): Accommodates more magic power, extremely fast magic power recovery speed."
After leveling up, I received two Mage Proficiencies in total, one corresponding to Transcendent Magic and the other to Magic Power...
It seems these are the so-called rewards.
The Mage Proficiency "Transcendent" also has a unique prompt, which should mean that only I possess it.
Will the first pioneer to show results receive a unique proficiency?
In that case, when Iz was promoted to a Level 2 Mage, he should have also received a unique proficiency related to Magic Power.
Besides these two.
Inside my body, a second peculiar symbol lit up, a symbol I didn't recognize.
This gave me a second talent.
[Current--Mage: Level 2] [Acquired Talent: Dual Casting --> "God-Tier Multi-Casting"]
"God-Tier Multi-Casting"
"Can simultaneously cast any different spells, and all cast spells can be released an additional +1 time of the current Mage level."
"Additional releases do not consume any magic power."
Multi-Casting, huh.
Lu Cang's mind stirred.
Three massive, solidified fireballs condensed to his right, while three ice shuttles circled his left side.
Lu Cang had only cast these spells once, but they had formed two additional copies.
"Simultaneous Casting..."
A Mage can only cast one spell at a time, at least that's how it is currently.
The gap between casting one spell and switching to the next is the Mage's vulnerable period when they can be exploited.
"It's really useful."
Lu Cang dispersed the ice shuttles and fireballs.
There was no need to test this talent further; Lu Cang could already feel that as long as his magic power was sufficient, he could cast all spells simultaneously.
Since he couldn't sleep anyway, he might as well get up early and go downstairs.
Iz wasn't refreshed in the hotel lobby today.
Well, it was 4:30 AM after all.
However, the hotel's meals were available all day, truly befitting a luxury hotel.
After breakfast, Lu Cang went to the library. The library in Rhein Town was open all day.
After leveling up to a Level 2 Mage, his mental strength had indeed increased significantly.
Lu Cang crammed common knowledge until noon before returning to the hotel.
However, on his way back to the hotel, he saw an unusually magnificent luxury carriage. Black and elegant, gold and noble, the two color schemes intertwined, making it look incredibly precious.
Seeing the carriage is like seeing the person; it immediately indicated the arrival of someone with an extraordinary status.
The moment Lu Cang saw the carriage, he became cautious.
It was hard to say whether the owner's arrival had any connection to him.
Iz wasn't refreshed in the lobby.
Hmm...
When did I start subconsciously assuming Iz would always refresh in the lobby?
However, it was time to go find them.
Lu Cang stepped into the elevator.
That's right, this world... has elevators.
The principle of elevators isn't complicated, though. A box, and a force to pull the box up...
That's pretty much an elevator.
The most rudimentary method of operation could even be hiring a strong person to pull it from above.
Whether it's safe... that's another matter.
But in this world where magic exists, there are naturally safe methods for it.
And this elevator wouldn't be as rudimentary as being pulled by a person.
Knock, knock, knock--
Lu Cang knocked on Iz's door.
Following a "Please come in," the door automatically opened.
"Aren't you going to reconsider?"
"If they hear Izpalut's name, they should surrender without a fight."
"This way, the casualties will be minimal."
Iz shook his head, giving a firm reply, "There's no need to try and persuade me further. My mind won't be changed."
Lu Cang saw that an unfamiliar person was conversing with Iz.
After receiving Iz's answer, the black-haired man wearing a gentleman's top hat stood up.
"Then I shall take my leave for now."
He bowed to Iz.
Iz smiled, adopting a posture of seeing him off.
The man turned to leave and saw Lu Cang.
"And this is...?"
Iz: "My personal disciple."
