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

Xia Qingyue ran back without regard for anything else.

The triplets were hot on their heels.

The mage was already short-legged, and the triplets had received inhuman physical and combat training since childhood.

Before long, Xia Qingyue was caught up.

"Still running?"

A mocking voice came from behind Xia Qingyue.

She turned around abruptly, and a flash of light appeared on the staff in her hand.

Several azure water arrows shot through the air.

However, the tank at the very front didn't even raise his shield; he simply shifted his body to the left and easily dodged the water arrow.

Immediately afterwards, another brother on the left accelerated, sweeping out his giant axe and blocking Xia Qingyue's retreat.

"The teamwork was excellent..."

Xia Qingyue's pupils suddenly contracted.

Before she could react, a third figure had already silently appeared behind her.

"goodbye."

A cold voice rang in her ears.

Then a flash of light appeared and struck Xia Qingyue.

The attacks from the other two followed closely behind.

Less than three seconds.

A soft white light burst forth from Xia Qingyue's body, transforming into a semi-transparent cocoon of light that enveloped her entirely.

The "Soul Protection" effect has taken effect, which means that Xia Qingyue has been eliminated.

While under protection, Xia Qingyue was immune to all harm, but she also lost her ability to move.

They could only stay in place like a statue until the big exam was over.

at this time,

Zhao Yu also walked over slowly.

"Running? Why did you stop running? Oh right, you can't move anymore."

"You're despicable."

Although Xia Qingyue was unable to move her body, her voice remained cold.

"Ha, you're too naive. All's fair in war; that's called tactics, that's called intelligence, understand?"

Zhao Yu snorted coldly, his tone disdainful, "In this world, the winner always takes all. The process doesn't matter; what matters is the result."

"result?"

Xia Qingyue stared intently at Zhao Yu and sneered:

"Do you really think you're a match for Young Master Lin? With your bunch of rabble? Zhao Yu, you overestimate yourself and underestimate Young Master Lin."

Upon hearing this, the smile on Zhao Yu's face vanished instantly.

"Xia Qingyue, please look carefully where you are! This is the Black Mud Swamp!"

"The environment here is a natural counter to fire and earth elements, and with dozens of elite troops involved, how can Lin Mo possibly win?"

"You just stay here and watch with your eyes wide open, watch how your master is surrounded and killed by us, hahahaha..."

……

at the same time.

Deep in the misty wasteland, at the edge of the black mud swamp.

The fog here is thicker than the surrounding area, and it has an eerie gray-black color.

Lin Mo stepped onto the soft ground.

He frowned, lifted his foot, and looked at the black mud that covered the sole of his shoe.

"This place is really uncomfortable..."

Lin Mo narrowed his eyes.

[Fireball Spell - Lazy and Dejected: What the hell is this place? I feel uncomfortable all over.]

"Little Tu, try building a soil flow wall."

Lin Mo gave the instructions in his mind.

Although the "Earth Shield" spell also felt somewhat uncomfortable, it immediately responded: "Understood, Master! Activate!"

Om-!

The ground trembled slightly.

A lump of wet, black mud barely managed to rise from the ground.

It is less than two meters high.

Lin Mo fell silent, then stepped forward and tried it.

With just a little force, the soft wall collapsed instantly, turning into a puddle of mud.

[The "Fireball" spell instantly bursts into laughter: Hahahaha! I'm dying of laughter! Second brother, what happened to your wall? Is this poop?]

[The Earth Shield spell was on the verge of tears, feeling wronged: This...this isn't my fault!]

[The Earth Shield spell is frantically pacing around: I've tried my best, but I just can't seem to solidify it!]

Lin Mo stared at the pool of mud, lost in thought.

really.

The Earth element was largely rendered useless, and the Fire element was weakened.

Is this Zhao Yu's source of confidence?

Lin Mo stroked his chin, quickly calculating the current situation in his mind.

On Zhao Yu's side, there were many people, and they were all humans, not those low-intelligence monsters.

Humans have tactics, know how to create distance, and know how to cooperate.

Although he possessed the invincible 'Lava Armor'.

The problem is that the duration is only 5 minutes, but the cooldown time is as long as 1 hour.

Once the armor is activated, the opponent certainly won't be foolish enough to fight you head-on.

They will definitely use their numerical and terrain advantages to employ kiting tactics to stall for those 5 minutes.

However, his Earth Flow Wall, a god-tier battlefield splitting skill with only a 5-second cooldown, was rendered useless.

Once the armor's duration expires, you will be at a disadvantage.

"Regarding attacks..."

Lin Mo glanced at the skill bar.

Both Fireball and Multi-Explosive Fireball have cooldowns, one three seconds and the other fifteen seconds...

It's really hard to say how to deal with a team of intelligent humans.

As for the pillar of flames.

Although the area is wide and the damage is high, the bright red warning circle is just too obvious.

It works well against monsters that aren't very smart, or targets whose movements are restricted.

But to beat these clever and agile elite test-takers...

Without any crowd control skills to coordinate, opponents will dodge as soon as they see the red circle, making it impossible to hit them.

"Looks like this is going to be a bit tricky..."

[The Earth Shield spell grows increasingly anxious: Master, what should we do? My wall won't stand up. If they focus fire on you, I... I can't hold them off! Maybe we shouldn't go?]

Wait, control...

Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed in Lin Mo's mind.

He said to the Earth Shield spell, "Little Earth, change your mindset. Don't think about how to harden this pile of mud."

[The Earth Shield spell user is bewildered: Huh? How can it block damage without hardening itself? How can it protect its master without erecting a wall?]

"No, offense is the best defense. As long as we can't move them, we can do whatever we want with them."

[The Earth Shield spell user shuddered: Huh? ?]

Lin Mo continued:

"Try to control the slime, make it flow, like super glue, you know what I mean?"

[The Earth Shield spell froze.]

[In its non-existent mind, it seemed as if a door to a new world was slowly opening.]

[The Earth Shield muttered to itself: Offense is the best defense... Instead of thinking about how to harden it... let it flow?]

[The "Earth Shield Technique" seems to have realized something: That's right! As long as we control them, and then our eldest brother quickly takes them out, that's also a way to protect our master!]

[The Earth Shield spell gets excited: Master, I want to try it!]

"Give it a try."

Lin Mo pointed to an open space in front of him.

Glug... Glug...

The once calm black mud ground began to writhe, forming a slowly rotating vortex.

……

……

Monitoring room.

Everyone held their breath, their eyes glued to the screen.

Zhao Lei was initially quite amused when he saw the collapsed earthen wall.

As a result, Lin Mo started staring blankly at the ground, and then the soft mud began to wriggle, and the smile on his face disappeared.

Xu Wenchang's pupils constricted slightly.

"The slime...is it flowing?"

"This kid, could it be...?"
