Chapter 27

West of Sunset Canyon, Zhao Family Sector.

"Roar—!"

Several Lv. 8 wolf-type monsters roared and charged toward Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu's expression was cold and composed as he skillfully adjusted his position.

The staff in his hand blazed with red light, fire elements fully activated at that moment.

"Multiple Exploding Fireballs!"

With a low shout, he swung his staff sharply.

Whoosh—!

A massive fireball split instantly in midair, becoming five fireballs the size of human heads, striking the wolves with pinpoint accuracy.

Boom—boom—boom—boom—boom!

Five explosions erupted nearly simultaneously.

The monsters didn't even have time to scream before they were blown apart, skin torn, flesh charred, bodies flying.

"Perfect! Young Zhao Shao, this five-fold explosion is pure mastery!"

His teammate immediately flattered him, "No wonder you're Young Zhao Shao—after just switching classes, you're already stabilizing five split fireballs. This DPS is terrifying."

Zhao Yu breathed heavily, pulled a blue magic power potion from his waist, and downed it in one gulp.

Even with S-rank affinity, frequent use of such advanced skills drains immense mental energy and magic power.

But he relished this feeling.

Sweat slid down his cheeks, magic power surged within him—this was proof of growing stronger.

Just then,

A reconnaissance officer hurried over.

"Young Zhao Shao!"

Zhao Yu wiped sweat from his forehead and asked casually, "How's Lin Mo doing?"

Deep down, Zhao Yu still couldn't bring himself to believe Lin Mo had truly become a dead weight.

After all, he'd been the constant benchmark since childhood.

Even if Lin Mo had awakened a blank talent, he couldn't possibly not understand that "level alone without combat skill is useless."

The officer's expression turned strange; he hesitated, then reported honestly:

"Uh… Report, Young Zhao Shao—Master Lin Mo is lying in bed, apparently watching a movie, with a maid feeding him fruit."

"I can't see anything beyond that—a wall of earth suddenly appeared and blocked the view. All I can see now is weak monsters being tossed into the wall one after another…"

"A wall of earth?"

Zhao Yu frowned slightly.

Probably Stone's doing—this level of security is ridiculous.

The air froze for several seconds.

Then Zhao Yu let out a scoff and shook his head.

"Worthless. Completely worthless."

Zhao Yu slammed his staff hard onto the ground and said coldly:

"I used to actually see him as my rival… even trained desperately to surpass him."

"Now I realize, treating someone like him as an opponent is an insult to me."

"Disgusting. Seriously disgusting."

With that, Zhao Yu stopped paying attention to that side entirely, his battle fervor burning even brighter.

"Too slow! These monsters aren't enough to kill! Next wave—bring them all! I want to fight ten at once!!!"

…

【I want to fight ten!!!】

【"Fireball Spell" roared in protest: One? Just one? Are you mocking me?!】

East of Sunset Canyon, Lin Family Camp.

Three towering, thick walls of earth stood like a fortress, enclosing Lin Mo.

Inside the fortress, Lin Mo lay on his side, holding a chilled glass of watermelon juice.

Beside him, the maid held a tablet playing a comedy film.

"Gulps—gulps—"

Lin Mo sipped the watermelon juice, utterly content.

On top of the five-meter-high earth walls, Ye Hongyu stood rigidly alert, scanning the surroundings from above.

"Master, monsters are coming."

Ye Hongyu warned.

No sooner had she spoken than a crippled 【Steppe Demon Wolf】 was hurled over the wall by Ah Hu.

Boom—!

Fireball Spell shot out and instantly obliterated it.

【"Fireball Spell" protested: I said ten at once! Sending them one by one—is that even worth it?】

Lin Mo sighed helplessly and called up to the wall: "Sister Ye, toss in more—ten or so at a time."

Ye Hongyu paused, startled.

She had never seen Lin Mo's "Multiple Exploding Fireballs."

Even last night, due to sparse monster distribution, they'd only sent one or two at a time.

Although the young master's micro-management is invincible, with such numbers, once they lose control, it becomes extremely dangerous.

"It's fine, just throw them." Lin Mo waved his hand and said casually, "If anything happens, I'll take responsibility."

Seeing this, Ye Hongyu said no more.

At worst, she would just be a bit more careful; she still possessed the strength to instantly kill a dozen low-level monsters in an instant.

Ye Hongyu shouted to the people outside the wall:

"Fifteen of them, throw them all together!"

Outside the wall, a dozen subordinates froze for a moment, then exerted their strength simultaneously.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

A full fifteen various wild monsters, beaten half to death, soared over the high earthen wall and plummeted toward the empty space on the right side of the large bed.

Standing on the wall head, Ye Hongyu's hand gripped the knife hilt slightly, her muscles tense.

If the young master couldn't handle it, she would have to descend from the sky to clear the area.

However, the next second.

An orange-red fireball whistled out, and in the instant it flew, that fireball trembled violently, instantly disintegrating and splitting apart in mid-air.

One... five... ten... fifteen!

Dense clusters of small fireballs precisely locked onto every wild monster still in the air.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom...

"Multiple... Burst Fireballs?!"

Standing on the wall head, Ye Hongyu's perspective was the most shocking.

She watched with her own eyes as those fifteen fireballs, like tracking missiles with independent consciousness, crisscrossed and darted through the air.

"This..."

Ye Hongyu stared blankly at the group of wild monsters instantly wiped out in one wave, stunned.

Understanding the Multiple Burst Fireball was one thing, but splitting into fifteen at once?

As far as she knew, Zhao Yu of the Zhao family could at most split into four or five right now, and even that had spread to the point where everyone in Jianghai City knew about it.

"Truly worthy of being my young master..."

Ye Hongyu murmured to herself, "This composure, this talent... that so-called S-rank from the Zhao family isn't even fit to hold the young master's shoes."

She lowered her head, her gaze piercing through the lingering smoke to land on Lin Mo below.

Illuminated by the firelight, Lin Mo still maintained that extremely unrestrained side-lying posture, looking at the tablet screen held in the maid's hands.

Seemingly completely unruffled by the "fifteen consecutive kills" just now.

This is the demeanor of a strong person; when Mount Tai collapses before one's face, the expression remains unchanged...

【The 'Fireball Spell' roared to the sky: Awesome!!! So awesome!】

【The 'Fireball Spell' still wanting more: This is the status I deserve! The art of that explosion just now was simply perfect! Do it again!】

【The 'Earth Shield Spell' with a crying voice: No, don't... really don't, so many monsters at once, what if one slips through? Master, I think it's still too dangerous.】

【The 'Fireball Spell' instantly flew into a rage: Dangerous? A monster slipping through? Are you questioning my power?】

【The 'Earth Shield Spell' curled into a ball: I wasn't talking to you, I was talking to the Master. Master... maybe we should take fewer monsters at a time.】

【The 'Fireball Spell' trembled with anger.】

Seeing his own skill bar about to start a fight, Lin Mo helplessly sighed and came out to mediate.

"Alright, alright, stop arguing."

"Xiao Tu, you must believe in your big brother's power; although he is reckless, his work is still meticulous."

"Xiao Huo, you should hold back a bit too, don't scare your little brother; he is doing it for my own good."

【The 'Earth Shield Spell': Hmph...】

【The 'Fireball Spell': Tsk...】

On the skill bar, the two icons standing side by side turned left and right respectively, back-to-back, ignoring each other.

"..."

Lin Mo's corner of the mouth couldn't help but twitch.

These days, changing classes isn't easy either; you even have to be responsible for mediating the relationships between skills...
