Chapter 349
Zhuxing Town.
On the rooftop of an unremarkable business hotel.
The three brothers from India at the rooftop’s edge felt cold sweat pouring down their bodies.
Baho leaned against the railing at the rooftop’s edge.
He gripped the high-magnification telescope tightly, frozen in place.
“This…”
“This this this…”
Baho turned his head toward his elder and second brother beside him.
“Elder brother, second brother…”
“I just… I didn’t imagine that, did I?”
“That storm just now…”
“Was it really released by that kid named Lin Mo?”
“Are you kidding?!”
“How old is he?!”
“How many days has it been since he awakened Wind affinity?!”
“Could a complete beginner who just learned Wind really produce such a cataclysmic power?!”
Hearing Baho’s shock,
Shar beside him lowered his telescope.
“Baho…”
“You didn’t imagine it. I saw it clearly too—it was definitely that kid named Lin Mo who released it himself.”
Shar took a deep breath, staring in disbelief toward Qianjune Pavilion.
“That training ground…”
“I checked—it’s one of the top few training grounds in Longguo.”
“Each of those giant wooden stakes cost a fortune.”
“A normal Magic King couldn’t even cut them in half—only leave a scratch…”
Here,
Shar paused, swallowed hard.
“But that kid didn’t even use a single-target skill—he used only an area skill, and sliced through entire rows of stakes at once…”
Shar shook his head, face filled with awe.
“How many days has this kid studied Wind?”
“Not even three days, right?”
“How is he capable of such power?!”
Hearing his second brother Shar’s words,
Baho was equally baffled.
He nodded repeatedly.
“Yeah…”
“I remember those stakes were expensive and extremely hard.”
“For Lin Mo to master a high-rank skill already seems insane.”
“How could his proficiency be this high?”
“One single area storm, slicing through so many costly stakes?”
“Is he even human…?”
At this moment,
Raj, the eldest, wore an equally grave expression.
“Enough.”
“What’s there to be so shocked about?”
Raj turned to look at his two younger brothers.
“Have you forgotten?”
“How long has it been since Lin Mo changed his class?”
“He’s already a four-affinity Magic King.”
“He even casually mastered a divine art that had been extinct in Longguo for centuries.”
“Now he’s just added Wind—this display is perfectly consistent with his usual reputation.”
Baho and Shar exchanged glances.
In each other’s eyes, they saw profound helplessness and despair.
Shar let out a bitter laugh and shook his head.
“Elder brother is right.”
“I finally understand completely…”
“Why the 140 top prodigies of the Seven-Nation Alliance were all wiped out by him alone on the Ten-Nation Battlefield.”
“His other four affinities’ high-rank skills must be just as monstrous…”
As the three brothers stood stunned,
Augustin also lowered his telescope.
“That technique just now…”
He furrowed his brow.
As if recalling all known high-rank Wind skills.
“Could it be…”
“Chaotic Storm?”
Augustin murmured to himself.
“The way the wind elements spread into tornadoes does resemble the release pattern of Chaotic Storm.”
Yet as soon as he spoke,
Samuel beside him coldly interrupted him.
“No.”
“That technique was definitely not Chaotic Storm.”
“Huh?”
Augustin turned to look at his companion Samuel.
Samuel’s eyes gleamed with sharp insight.
“If I recall correctly,”
“Chaotic Storm, though a high-rank Wind skill and capable of forming tornadoes,
is fundamentally a control skill—it disrupts the battlefield, unlike what Lin Mo demonstrated.”
“Chaotic Storm could never have cut through those dozens of stakes.”
Saying this,
Samuel gazed far off toward Qianjune Pavilion.
“Only if the Wind Supreme had acted—using immense spiritual power—might he have torn through dozens of stakes.”
“But the one who acted was not him.”
“If Lin Mo were truly at that level and used Chaotic Storm, he could never have achieved such power.”
Hearing Samuel’s analysis,
Augustin frowned.
“Not Chaotic Storm?”
“Then what could it be?”
Augustin pondered.
“Among a mage’s high-rank Wind skills, apart from this one, none of the others even resemble it in form.”
Hearing Augustin’s question,
Samuel fell silent.
After a few seconds,
Samuel slowly spoke.
“Perhaps…”
“This isn’t any technique recorded in any skill book.”
“Perhaps this is a high-rank skill…”
“That kid named Lin Mo created himself!”
As soon as he said this,
The three Indian brothers froze.
“No way… a self-created high-rank skill?”
Baho exclaimed in shock.
“Impossible?”
“Lin Mo just awakened his Wind affinity a few days ago!”
“Even if it were a few days.”
“Even professionals who’ve immersed themselves in Wind for decades find it nearly impossible to create a Gao Jie skill!”
“Creating a skill requires ultimate comprehension of the Wind element—peeling away layers like silk from a cocoon!”
“How could he possibly create a Gao Jie skill?”
Sha’er was also filled with horror, utterly unable to accept this hypothesis.
Only their leader Rajie, after a brief moment of shock, spoke in a low voice:
“Lord Samuel is right.”
“I believe the Lord’s deduction is very likely true.”
Rajie looked at his two younger brothers.
“As the Lord said, the only Wind Gao Jie skill with a tornado form—‘Chaotic Storm’—could never cut through a giant wooden post like that.”
“Even if Lin Mo is gifted beyond measure, even if his proficiency is maxed out.”
“His current mental power simply cannot achieve it.”
“So there is only one possibility.”
“He created the skill himself!”
Rajie’s eyes were filled with awe.
“Only a self-created skill can surpass the power of skills listed in standard skill books.”
“Only then can one, at the same mental power level, unleash damage far more terrifying than any skill from a book!”
Rajie’s words.
Made Sha’er and Baho finally understand.
Sha’er slumped against the railing, tilting his head up to gaze at the dim, gray sky.
“A monster...”
“Truly a monster...”
Sha’er muttered to himself.
“What kind of luck did Longguo have?”
“Did they save the universe?”
“Otherwise, how could heaven have granted them such a terrifying monster?”
