Versatile Mage

“May I ask, what do you mean by the extraordinary power of the Super Level?” Mo Fan persisted.

Mu Bai was speechless. He had never seen someone so ignorant, yet so not ashamed to ask the question so loudly. Normally, people would only ask the question softly in shame!

To think that someone could be so impressive at being uncivilized!

“When you reach the Super Level, many Mages develop special abilities, based on factors like their Innate Talents, attributes, experience, and which Elements they normally focus on. These special abilities only appear at the Super Level, and are referred to as the extraordinary powers of the Super Level,” Mu Bai eplied, sighing.

“So it’s like a Superpower? That sounds pretty cool!” Mo Fan exclaimed.

“I remember you mentioned that Secretary Richard, who you fought at the military academy. You told me how unique his Ice Magic was. He was able to Summon a huge Ice Boot with a stomp and a huge Ice Fist when he threw a punch. It was a kind of Superpower!” Mu Bai explained.

Mo Fan was shocked.

He had indeed been intrigued by Secretary Richard’s abilities when they were fighting.

Unfortunately, Secretary Richard must have stayed in his comfort zone for too long, and was no longer good at real fighting. Mo Fan had managed to defeat him with a few powerful Spells.

“These Superpowers are like the transformations of your Elements after your control over them reaches a certain level. For example, a defensive Mage like Zhao Manyan will most likely end up with the ability to materialize a turtle shell or something with his magic. As for a brute force Mage like you, your Superpower would lean more toward the destructive and offensive side…” Mu Bai went on.

They heard heavy footsteps as they were talking. They stopped talking and turned around. It was Zhu Meng with his thick brows.

Zhu Meng had brought a cone of ice cream out of nowhere. He was licking it, obviously enjoying himself.

Perhaps he did not expect to stumble into anyone in the corridor at this time. He looked at Mo Fan and Mu Bai in astonishment while holding the ice cream in his hand.

As a matter of fact, if it was like a seventeen-year-old girl holding a strawberry ice cream in her left hand and a Matcha sorbet in her right hand, it would be a pleasant sight watching her licking and biting the ice cream.

The problem was, Zhu Meng could easily cosplay Zhang Fei if he was a little more tanned. It was weird seeing a Councilman enjoying an ice cream.

“Ice cream cones are my favorite!” Zhu Meng coughed, feeling very awkward. He had no idea where to put his hands.

Zhu Meng was not a materialistic guy. He had decided to stay in the same apartment complex as Mo Fan, since it was more convenient for work. His room was the last room on the same floor, facing a park.

“Everyone has an eighteen-year-old heart,” Mu Bai sensibly gave Zhu Meng a way to explain himself.

“But it’s rare to see one with an eight-year-old heart!” Mo Fan showed no mercy.

Zhu Meng felt extremely awkward. He quickly changed the topic, “What were you two discussing?”

“We are talking about Superpowers. Mo Fan had no idea what they were. I used to think if one doesn’t study hard, they could still be a postman after traveling a long distance, but it doesn’t really apply in Mo Fan’s case,” Mu Bai mocked Mo Fan.

Mo Fan was Mu Bai’s classmate. He could not imagine how the guy who always came in last in exams would end up becoming a Super Mage, and even had Superpowers now!

The world had never been fair. There were people from grassroots and wealthy families. There were normal players and pay-to-win players. Those who were extremely lucky, like Mo Fan, were the most annoying kind, yet Mu Bai was struggling to get angry with him.

“Oh, Superpowers, I have one too. Should I show you my Superpower?” Zhu Meng proposed.

“I remember you were wearing a Lightning Armor and using a Lightning Spear when you were fighting in Hangzhou. You were like a Lightning Knight back then. Was that your Superpower?” Mo Fan recalled.

Zhu Meng had looked so cool when he was fighting the Silver Skyruler in Hangzhou!

“My Superpower is Elemental Battling Armor. I can put on Lightning Armor when fighting at a close distance, and put on Fire Armor when fighting at long distance,” Zhu Meng said proudly.

Zhu Meng was in charge of eliminating national threats. There was no way someone like him, who was always dealing with national threats, would admit he was weak!

“Mo Fan seems to have Awakened his Superpowers,” Mu Bai pointed at Mo Fan grudgingly.

How was Mo Fan always a step ahead of him? He had also been the first to become a Super Mage among the three of them!

“Seriously?” Zhu Meng almost dropped his ice cream cone.

“My Lightning Element evolved a little after I absorbed the impurities in the tailings. I haven’t tried it out, so I’m not sure if it’s really the Superpower Mu Bai told me about.” Mo Fan scratched his head.

Are Superpowers really that impressive? What is with their reactions?

Does it mean I now have two Superpowers?

“Being able to construct a Star Palace is only the first step at the Super Level. Having Superpowers is the real aim of every Super Mage,” Zhu Meng informed him.

Every Mage had to rely on Star Orbits, Star Patterns, Star Constellations, and Star Palaces at first, but as they grew stronger, they would gradually develop their special abilities.

Domains and Wards originated from external sources, like Soul-grade Seeds and Heaven-grade Seeds.

However, the source of Superpowers was the Mages themselves. It was a fundamental change for Mages!

Now that Mo Fan thought about it, if the Dark Vein was not a kind of Superpower, why was he able to beat the crap out of Super Mages lately?

The Dark Vein was surprisingly strong. It almost made Mo Fan unbeatable, since he could do whatever he pleased when using it!

Did it mean the Lightning Acupuncture Points would be domineering too, especially since his Lightning Element was further strengthened by the Blessing of the God’s Seal?

How would it feel if he could unleash his Lightning Magic from every body part? How crazy would it be if he fully unleashed his Lightning Magic?

“It seems like I’m worrying for no reason. The Black Vatican is going to send Executioners after you, and I was wondering whether you could handle them,” Zhu Meng went on.

One of the reasons Zhu Meng had stayed at the same apartment as Mo Fan was because he was concerned about Mo Fan’s safety.

Mo Fan was completely exposed on the Black Vatican’s radar. If Salan insisted on taking Mo Fan’s life, he would be in great danger while he was overseas. Mo Fan was in Salan’s territory now. No one could stop her from taking extreme measures!

“By the way, Councilman Zhu, Blue Bat was an Enforcer too. Do you know that?” Mu Bai asked him suddenly.

“Blue Bat was an Enforcer? How is that possible?” Zhu Meng was startled.

Was the Enforcement Union that unreliable? How did the Black Vatican manage to infiltrate it so easily?

“I saw a Seal of the Enforcement Union in her body when I was performing an autopsy on her. I guessed she might have joined a local Enforcement Union in the past, but I thought Enforcers were bound for life. I don’t understand how she managed to quit the Enforcement Union!” Mu Bai told them.
