15: Chapter 15 Self-created Spells?

Should he try a new skill and create his first exclusive spell?

"If I create my first spell, will the system give a reward?"

"I got a gift pack for completing my first hunt, so maybe there's a surprise for creating my first spell too."

Lin Fan grew more expectant the more he thought about it, his eyes filled with excitement.

He really wanted to know how many more surprises the system had hidden in store for him.

Unfortunately, he still couldn't figure out the specific conditions for the system to grant rewards.

He could only take it one step at a time.

In the end, Lin Fan chose neither to level up nor to rush into consuming experience points to test new skills.

He decided to save his experience points for now and continue exploring deeper into the forest.

With his current strength as an early-stage Tier 2 Mage, dealing with some low-level magical beasts was more than enough.

After making up his mind, he leaped down from the branch and walked towards the two magical beast corpses on the ground.

He had two goals for leaving the city:

One was to hunt magical beasts to grind experience,

and the second was to collect the corpses and magic cores of the magical beasts to exchange for money to subsidize his household.

Lin Fan walked to the corpses and skillfully found where their magic cores were located.

After all, as a well-read top student, he knew the physical structure of magical beasts like the back of his hand.

He first reached out to dig out the magic core of the Single-Horned Magic Snake.

A small crystal containing faint magical power lay in his palm, still stained with a little blood.

"A Level 1 magic core, better than nothing."

Lin Fan muttered to himself and casually put the magic core into his storage bracelet.

It corresponded to the level of the magical beast.

Magic cores were also divided into five levels, from Level 1 to Level 5.

common grade magical beasts corresponded to Level 1 magic cores.

While Calamity-grade magical beasts corresponded to the most precious Level 5 magic cores.

On the Blue Star planet, magic cores were extremely precious strategic resources, always in short supply, and their prices remained high.

Almost everything that required energy to operate relied on magic cores for supply.

Transportation, mechanical equipment, magic tools, formation barriers, mobile terminals, and even the energy supply of cities could not do without magic cores.

The higher the level of the magic core, the wider its uses, and the more expensive its value.

This was why, even though the magic power contained in a Level 1 magic core was very faint, it still held significant value.

After putting the magic core of the Tri-color Giant Rabbit into his bracelet as well.

Lin Fan collected the two magical beast corpses as well.

After all, besides the magic cores, the fur and flesh of the magical beasts could also sell for a fair amount of money.

After putting away his spoils, he stood up and looked around. After confirming there were no other magical beasts lying in ambush, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

He should have been on guard before jumping down from the tree.

But come to think of it, if there really were an ambush, the enemy would have attacked long ago while he was looting.

"Alright, time to find the next target!"

Lin Fan said with great interest.

The system's rewards made him full of drive, and he was in high spirits.

He leaped back onto the branches again and sped towards the depths of the forest.

His figure was as fast as a ghost, and within a few leaps, he disappeared into the dense forest.

Not long after Lin Fan left this hunting ground.

A bizarre scene occurred.

The surrounding space suddenly twisted and vibrated violently, and a harsh sound like shattering glass echoed in the forest.

The void was like torn cloth, and a pitch-black rift suddenly appeared.

That was... a space rift!

Space rifts were channels connecting the Blue Star planet to the Demon plane.

The brutal demons used these rifts to invade this world continuously.

The demons were not only powerful but also mastered magic power.

Even the weakest among them had strength comparable to a Transformation-grade magical beast!

The rift in the air continued to expand, soon spreading to ten meters in length.

The depths of the rift were pitch black, as if filled with thick black mist, making it impossible to see the scene on the other side.

"Hmm? I clearly sensed it; it was clearly right here just now... How did it suddenly disappear?"

A hoarse, low voice came from the depths of the rift.

The speaker did not appear, only whispering across the rift.

After the voice fell, the surroundings fell into dead silence.

It was as if a pair of invisible eyes was peeking at this forest in the dark.

A full minute passed.

The hoarse voice sounded again.

"Perhaps I sensed it wrong... After all, those 'two' could never exist at the same time."

Before the words faded, the rift in the air began to slowly shrink.

After a while, the twisted space gradually calmed down, and the rift disappeared without a trace.

The world returned to calm, as if that bizarre scene had never happened.

Meanwhile, Lin Fan was still searching for new prey in the forest.

Not long after leaving the hunting spot of the Single-Horned Magic Snake, he encountered another magical beast.

On a small forest path.

A five-meter-tall black giant wolf was walking slowly, the fur on its neck blood-red and particularly eye-catching.

Another common grade magical beast!

Lin Fan stood on a high branch, his eyes tightly locked on every move of the giant wolf.

This giant wolf didn't seem to be foraging; it was just wandering aimlessly, sauntering between the trees.

It even circled around a few large trees. Lin Fan couldn't help but guess that it might be patrolling.

"No, things aren't that simple."

Lin Fan stared at the giant wolf and muttered to himself.

He recognized the species of this magical beast at a glance: a Moon Shadow Magic Wolf.

Regarding this kind of magical beast, there was a well-known characteristic: they always hunted in packs!

Lin Fan did not rush to attack but followed silently.

Man and wolf moved through the forest.

Five minutes later, they had gone more than two hundred meters deep into the forest.

Lin Fan leaped between the trees like a ghost, his black robe protecting him.

He moved silently, without making a sound.

"So that's it!"

Lin Fan understood, suddenly enlightened.

After following for five minutes, the Moon Shadow Magic Wolf finally stopped and returned to a clearing in the forest surrounded by towering trees.

In the center of the clearing, six similar-looking magic wolves were waiting for it.

It turned out that the magic wolf he had targeted was actually bait!

Lin Fan almost slapped his thigh in admiration; how could he have forgotten about this?

The Moon Shadow Magic Wolf was best at lure tactics.

First, send one magic wolf as bait, and after the prey takes the bait, swarm and attack.

"Unfortunately, the one you met is me!"

A flash of light shone in Lin Fan's eyes. Looking at the seven magic wolves in the clearing, only experience points remained in his eyes.

A whole 35 experience points!

Without the slightest hesitation, silver light burst from Lin Fan's eyes.

Ten space-type star points appeared behind him, instantly condensing into two Star Patterns.

"Space Bullet!"

He gave a low shout and used both hands.

His fingers aimed at the magic wolf pack on the ground like gun barrels.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Several sounds of breaking through the air rang out in succession, and several Space Bullets whistled towards the magic wolves.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Loud noises exploded in the forest, and five magic wolves were instantly pierced through their bodies.

The Space Bullets, their momentum undiminished, slammed into the ground, blasting out several deep pits.

Several fist-sized bloody holes appeared on the magic wolves, and blood gushed out.
