I just became a mage, and my skills have become supernatural? What the heck?

In the center of the Lin family's temporary camp.

Lin Mo lay comfortably on the soft bed, with two soft latex pillows behind him.

"Young Master, these chilled amethyst grapes were just flown in by air. I've already peeled them all. Please have a taste~"

Beside him, a lace maid was kneeling by the bed, holding a crystal-clear grape and gently offering it to Lin Mo's lips.

Lin Mo opened his mouth and took the grape in.

"Hmm~ Not bad, sweet, deserves a reward!"

As he spoke, Lin Mo casually pulled out several hundred-yuan bills from China.

A hint of surprise flashed in the maid's eyes.

"Thank you for your kindness, young master. You're so kind! I'll peel grapes for you every day from now on!"

Lin Mo felt the soft touch on his arm and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Corruption...

This is so damn corrupt! This damn capitalist corruption... It smells so good!

[The Earth Shield spell trembled violently: Master, I feel it's still too dangerous. After all, this is a monster horde. Should we go home?]

Before Lin Mo could even respond, the hot-tempered Lao Huo immediately objected.

[Fireball Spell: "Go back to hell! There's food, drink, beautiful women, and monsters to kill here! This is heaven! What are you talking about?!"]

[Earth Shield Technique: But...]

"Alright, Xiao Tu."

Before the Earth Shield spell could speak, Lin Mo reassured him, "Don't worry at all. These are all my people. A mere monster horde is nothing to worry about."

at this time,

Ye Hongyu strode over, followed by Shi Tou and A Hu.

Seeing Lin Mo leisurely eating grapes, the three of them had no objections.

After all, in their minds, Lin Mo's talent was unprecedented.

In this world, strength represents everything.

True strong individuals possess talent and strength that endow them with composure and confidence.

To them, the young master's leisurely and carefree demeanor was not the laziness of a spoiled brat, but rather a confidence stemming from his absolute talent.

"Young Master."

Ye Hongyu bowed slightly and reported to her superior with a serious expression: "The reconnaissance unit has just sent back the latest intelligence."

As she spoke, Ye Hongyu opened the electronic map in her hand.

"Young master, according to the detection, monsters from hundreds of kilometers around are gathering here. The monsters coming are between Lv.10 and Lv.40, and there are many different kinds."

"The first to arrive will be low-level monsters from the surrounding area, ranging in level from 1 to 10."

"There are some more big guys coming up, such as the Lv.25 'Raging Giant Bear' and the Lv.30 'Venomous Flying Serpent'..."

At this point, Ye Hongyu paused and drew a circle on the map:

"What we can confirm at the moment is that the last one to arrive is this area, the 'Thundercloud Storm Hawk' at levels 35 to 40."

"This is a high-level flying magical beast from Thundercloud Peak in the north. It is extremely fast and has ranged attack methods with lightning attributes, so it will be relatively difficult to deal with."

"Once they appear, the BOSS should spawn as well."

Stone, who was standing nearby, stepped forward and added:

"Young master, the experience gained from killing monsters that are 10 levels higher than your own level will begin to decrease."

Stone counted on his fingers:

"In other words, once those level 25 and above, especially the level 40 Stormhawks, arrive..."

"The experience points you gain from killing them are negligible, making it extremely inefficient."

"and……"

Stone hesitated for a moment, then finally said tactfully:

"Besides, with monsters of that level, the level difference is significant, making it difficult to deal effective damage."

At this point, Ye Hongyu continued the conversation:

"Young master, we'll cripple those lower-level monsters in the early stages, those below level 35, and send them over for you to finish off, helping you level up quickly."

"But when high-level flying monsters appear later in the game, our primary task is to kill them immediately to ensure your absolute safety!"

After listening, Lin Mo nodded thoughtfully.

indeed.

The level difference between the last flying monster and the first one is too great; forcing it to eat is indeed very dangerous.

The level difference is significant; even if the enemy is left with only a sliver of health, I might not be able to break through their defenses and finish them off.

"Okay, I'll do as you say. Safety first."

Lin Mo had no objections.

Ye Hongyu paused for a moment, then spoke again:

"Young Master, besides these monster hordes, the most crucial thing this time is that guaranteed-to-respawn wild boss!"

"According to the data calculated by headquarters, the level of the BOSS that spawned this time should be between level 25 and 40."

Even with experience point decay, the experience points you gain from defeating an entire boss by yourself are still a very considerable number.

"If we can find and capture it in front of the Zhao family, your level will likely reach level 16 or even level 17..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo's eyes lit up.

Based on the professionals who participated in the major exam in previous years, most of them were at level 10, and a few were at level 13 to 15.

If I can reach level 16...

That would be a remarkable achievement, standing out from the crowd in the examination hall.

"So how do we find this boss?"

Lin Mo asked curiously.

Ye Hongyu explained, "Under normal circumstances, it really does depend on luck, or we have to wait for a thorough search."

"However... it also depends on the BOSS's attributes."

"If the boss that spawns is an earth-type boss, then Stone, as an S-rank earth-type affinity mage, can sense and lock onto its location immediately."

"Similarly, if it's fire-based, Zhao Yu from the Zhao family could also sense it."

"So, it's not just about skill, it's also about luck."

Lin Mo suddenly realized.

So it was about elemental sensing.

So, does that mean that I, a "blank slate" mage, can only be blind?

wrong……

Lin Mo subconsciously glanced at his skill bar.

That little fireball guy, although he has a bad temper, his senses... seem to be even sharper than a dog's nose, right?

And that cowardly Xiao Tu, in order to save his life, his sensitivity to his surroundings has reached an almost abnormal level.

If it really comes down to a battle of intuition...

I don't think I'm that weak?

Just then.

An adjutant ran up quickly, saluted, and said:

"Report to Captain Ye! The first wave of monsters has reached three kilometers ahead, mainly consisting of Steppe Wolves and Sharp-Toothed Rabbits!"

Ye Hongyu's expression hardened, and she instantly entered battle mode.

She turned around and gave orders to Ah Hu, Shi Tou, and the others:

"Proceed according to the original plan. Stone, you take a team to the east side. Tiger, you take a team to the west side. I'll stay here to protect the young master."

"Send a signal immediately upon spotting the BOSS!"

"Yes, sir! Mission accomplished!"

The crowd shouted in unison, then quickly left.

The camp, which was originally a bit crowded, was suddenly left with only Lin Mo, a few personal maids, and Ye Hongyu.

Ye Hongyu didn't say much. She drew her short sword, walked to the entrance of the camp ahead, and began to stand guard, waiting for her subordinates to bring the low-health monster over.

[The Fireball spell, unable to contain itself any longer, roared excitedly: It's finally here! This is awesome! I had a blast killing monsters last night, and now so many more are lining up to die! And there's a feast to eat! This is the real life!]

[The "Fireball" spell feels like the happiest skill in the world! Becoming a forbidden spell is just around the corner! This time, it really hit the right spot!]

[The Earth Shield mage trembled to the side: A madman… a real madman. With so many monsters, what if they break through the defenses?]

[Fireball Spell: You know nothing! Slaughter is the ladder of evolution!]

"Little Huo, since you're enjoying it so much, why don't you call me 'Daddy' again?"

Lin Mo then had the urge to tease the little fireball again.

The Fireball spell froze instantly.

[Fireball Technique's inner turmoil: ...This is too much! Didn't I already call for it last night? I have my dignity too!]

"Oh? You have dignity, huh?"

Lin Mo thought for a moment and said, "How about we have stir-fried shredded potatoes tonight? It's been a long time since I've had that."

[Earth Shield Technique's joy: Yay! I love potatoes!]

【Fireball Spell: ...】

Two seconds later.

A voice, tinged with humiliation, rang out.

[Fireball: ...Dad...Dad.]
