128: Chapter 128 Holy Mage, the Pinnacle of the World
Nourished by the surging magic power, new stars were constantly being born.
Soon.
Lin Fan's soul sea was like a vast galaxy, with billions of stars!
The turmoil in his soul sea triggered a violent shockwave in the outside world.
Centered on Lin Fan, it was as if a heaven-shaking explosion had occurred.
Within a radius of several thousand meters.
A giant deep crater was blasted out!
Lin Fan suppressed the excitement in his heart, feeling fortunate that he hadn't leveled up in the city.
With the power of this shockwave.
The entire city would have been destroyed.
He did not leave the crater immediately, but instead summoned the System panel again.
[supreme path system (Glitch Version)]
[Host: Lin Fan]
[Rank: 44]
[Experience Required for Next Rank: 31800 / 100 (Glitch)]
[Realm: Sixth-Rank Saint Mage Peak]
[Elements: Space, Lightning]
[Special Abilities:]
[Dual-Element Constitution: Can use two elements.]
[Void Walk...]
...
Lin Fan stared blankly at the panel, his feelings complex.
He had reached the Saint Mage Peak... the highest known Realm in this world.
For a long time, he stood in the center of the giant crater, motionless.
His thoughts surged.
Now.
He was already the strongest mage in the world, no longer needing to be afraid or hide his true identity.
He could publicly reveal that he was Chen Ping.
He no longer needed to hide his wealth from his family.
He didn't need to go to the Magic Academy anymore and could directly give up on the competition.
Even if he left suddenly and the Magic Academy's performance plummeted, just like Su Linlin, he wouldn't care at all.
After all.
During the years he was treated as trash, the Magic Academy had turned a blind eye to most injustices.
But after a second thought, Lin Fan felt it was improper.
If he directly exposed the identity of Mr. Chen, all eyes would be focused on him.
Everyone would try every possible way to disturb him.
Just like how they were desperately trying to befriend Mr. Chen now.
The reason he could still dodge them now was that no one knew where Mr. Chen was.
But once everyone knew that Lin Fan was Mr. Chen.
They would directly find his family and beg for a meeting.
His family would no longer be able to live a peaceful life and might even have to avoid public places.
Moreover, even if no one dared to offend him openly, human hearts were unpredictable, especially the Dark Alliance, who didn't fear death.
Was he to protect his family.
By depriving them of their freedom and keeping them by his side at all times?
There was one more thing Lin Fan was very clear about.
He still knew too little about the magic and many secrets of this world.
His current knowledge base was only at the level of an ordinary Magic Academy student, which was far from enough.
To know more.
He needed to enter a Magic University to explore this vast magical world without being disturbed by annoying social interactions.
Therefore, Lin Fan made a decision:
Continue to stay at the Magic Academy, participate in the competition, and attract the attention of top Magic Universities.
At the same time, continue to maintain the identity of Mr. Chen to do things that were inconvenient for Lin Fan to do.
The best of both worlds.
Furthermore.
In his previous life, he was just a young man who hadn't experienced university life, and he still had many campus fantasies.
Entering a Magic University would be the perfect way to fulfill this wish.
Having figured everything out, Lin Fan walked out of the giant crater.
He originally intended to jump lightly.
But he ended up soaring hundreds of meters into the air.
Lin Fan: "..."
He paused in the air for a few seconds, then used Blink to head towards Baiyun City.
He decided not to use Void Walk.
Even though it was faster, he chose to use consecutive Blinks instead.
After stepping into the Sixth-Rank Saint Mage.
The distance of his Blink had increased significantly.
It only took a few times to enter Baiyun City.
Upon arriving in the city, Lin Fan used Void Walk to enter the Alliance Building.
Now that he was so famous, too many people wanted to see him.
Every evening, the first floor of the Alliance Building was always crowded with people...
Because this was the time Mr. Chen often came, and it was their only chance to possibly see him.
For this reason, Branch Chief Jiang Tianhai specifically proposed:
If Mr. Chen wanted to come to the Alliance Building, he could come directly to his office.
So as soon as Lin Fan came in, he opened a space portal directly into Jiang Tianhai's office.
Jiang Tianhai and Wei Donglin were discussing inside.
Lin Fan appeared suddenly; the two were startled at first, but then enthusiastically invited him to join.
They were discussing the auction tonight.
The two were still arranging the items to be auctioned.
Mr. Chen was the specially invited appraiser they had invited, and also the person they respected the most.
They felt it was only natural to let him participate in the discussion.
But Lin Fan remained silent throughout, just listening quietly.
With his understanding of this world.
He was just a Magic Academy student; what opinions could he offer?
He did not interrupt; he waited until they finished speaking before stating his purpose:
He came to sell Demonic Beast corpses.
The two led Lin Fan to a huge storage room and asked him to take out the corpses.
The handover process was quick.
Wei Donglin and Jiang Tianhai counted the Demonic Beast corpses Lin Fan brought back together and transferred 55 million yuan to his alliance card.
Afterward, Lin Fan left the Alliance Building and returned home.
At dinner.
Lin Fan told his family that he was going to attend the Alliance's auction tonight.
Since clearing out the Dark Alliance base last week, Baiyun City had been very stable, and his parents did not object.
They only asked if he was going alone or with others. Lin Fan said he was with the members of Wave Squad, not alone.
His parents readily agreed.
Lin Duo also clamored to go.
She was refused by their parents, and the little girl was unhappy.
It wasn't until Lin Fan promised to bring her a gift that she became a little happier.
Shortly after, Lin Fan went out.
He walked to a quiet corner.
He used Void Walk to return to the Alliance Building again.
When he arrived, he had already put on a black robe and a mask.
Inside the building, the auction was already being prepared.
He quickly found Elder Wang and was taken to the storage room where the auction items were kept.
The storage room was as large as the room where Lin Fan usually traded Demonic Beast corpses.
Hundreds of items were placed inside, and Alliance staff were still constantly moving more in.
Elder Wang told him that most of the items in the storage room were entrusted by others for auction, and only a few belonged to the Alliance.
The appraisal work began quickly.
Elder Wang invited Lin Fan to the designated area.
And arranged an assistant to help him pass and take items.
The assistant was a man of twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, and his eyes were full of nervousness as he looked at Lin Fan.
He was not afraid, just excited... the person he was serving was the famous Mr. Chen.
Summoning his courage, the assistant introduced himself.
And explained that he had been studying to be an appraiser for many years.
Lin Fan was stunned inwardly.
The other person had studied to be an appraiser for so long.
And yet he had to serve as an assistant to someone who hadn't studied it for even a day.
Fortunately, he had the mask to cover his face, otherwise, he would have died of embarrassment.
After a brief exchange, the assistant began to pass items to Lin Fan one by one.
Lin Fan only needed to take one look.
State the information provided by the mask, and the assistant would be responsible for recording it.
The information provided by the mask was extremely accurate, sometimes even containing superfluous details.
Let alone the assistant.
Even Elder Wang and other invited veteran appraisers were shocked by Mr. Chen's precision.
