Full-Time Mage: One random forbidden spell per month

Chapter 8 Alchemy Weapons - The Seven Deadly Sins

Hunter's Alliance.

"Since Luze joined us, I feel like I've become just a bystander."

After the mission was completed, Li Wenjie couldn't help but complain.

"Who says otherwise? Every time we fight demons, we don't have to lift a finger. Lu Ze's summoned beasts wipe out the demons in an instant. He's not like a beginner mage at all."

Fei Shi nodded. He had heard that summoners were awesome, but he didn't expect them to be this awesome.

Normally, it would take them a lot of effort to deal with a one-eyed wolf, and there might even be injuries.

But after Lu Ze joined, a fully grown one-eyed demon wolf was just a matter of one swipe from his summoned beast.

Originally, this should have been a good thing, but in order to be fair, the captain gave more than half of the bounty to Lu Ze.

That's why they look so miserable. Although it was a bit dangerous before, the salary was at least two or three times what it is now.

"You two stop complaining. Lu Ze is being generous by giving you a share of the money," said Vice Captain Cai Tang.

Li Wenjie and Fei Shi were both stunned; this was the first time they had ever seen the vice-captain speak up for someone else.

That can't be.

The two exchanged a glance. Could it be that the vice-captain has taken a liking to Lu Ze?

But Lu Ze is so young and so talented, would he really fall for her?

At this moment, the gentle and frail Xiao Ke stepped forward and said, "It's safer with Lu Ze around. I think it's great."

They were just ordinary hunters, and their greatest hope was to break through to the intermediate level.

"That's true, so a lower salary is fine."

Li Wenjie and Fei Shi were just complaining. Although they often dealt with demons, they were actually still unsure of themselves.

After all, they were just novice mages at the lowest level among the hunters.

But now that Lu Ze has joined them, they feel very safe and secure when they sleep.

"Alright, Lu Ze is so young to become a hunter, he's probably just short of money. Maybe he's that summoning student from Tianlan High School."

Xu Dahuang wasn't stupid. Summoning-type characters were so rare, and with the previously rumored "genius summoner" being so legendary, it was hard not to connect them.

Instead of focusing on studying, he became a hunter, probably only for that Stardust artifact.

Since that's the case, he might as well help this summoning genius out of the way, as a small contribution to Bo City.

For each mission, Xu Dahuang would give 60% to 70% of the bounty to Lu Ze, keep 10% for himself, and distribute the rest to the other teammates.

He used to get 40% of the bounty, but now he's willing to take only 10%.

Time flies, and soon it was time for the outdoor training.

Over the past year, Li Xingze has completed many missions with the city's monster-hunting team, but unfortunately, the bounties were not high.

Since buying the Stardust Magic Artifact was out of the question, Li Xingze had no choice but to rent it, a method that Captain Xu Dahuang had told him about.

His cultivation level broke through to the second level of the initial stage two months ago, but the third level of the initial stage is still a long way off.

If one possessed a Stardust Magic Artifact of Spirit Rank or higher, it might already be at the initial stage, level three.

[Number of Forbidden Spell Scrolls: 10]

During this period, Li Xingze participated in five paid lottery draws, but his unlucky streak remained consistent.

Aside from a Tang sword and a Devil Fruit, the rest of the items only have a little collectible value.

[Alchemy Weapon: The Seven Deadly Sins - Envy.]

Alchemy weapons from the world of dragons, indestructible.

Li Xingze possesses Uchiha swordsmanship, but he lacks a suitable weapon!

[Cat-Cat Fruit - Wildcat Form.]

Anyone who eats this Devil Fruit will possess a beast-like physique, with significant enhancements to strength, resilience, endurance, agility, and other physical attributes.

Compared to demons, mages are incredibly fragile, but if they consume this Devil Fruit, their survivability will increase several levels.

Unfortunately, it's just a common Zoan-type. Li Xingze would be more willing to use Ancient Zoan or Mythical Zoan types to improve his strength, but common Zoan types are too useless for him.

Led by teacher Zhang Jianguo, the students boarded a bus to their destination.

After traversing a vast wasteland outside the city and sitting for almost half a day, the group finally arrived at their destination, Xuefeng Mountain Inn.

Li Xingze, Mo Fan, and Zhang Xiaohou wandered around the post station until they heard the instructors' calls to assemble in the distance.

"Meet at the square."

"Gather up! Gather up!"

The 100 students stood in neat rows, immediately attracting the attention of the hunter mages at the post station.

"Look, look! The interns from Tianlan High School are here again! Hahaha, we can watch the newbies make fools of themselves again."

"You bet! The inn has been bustling with activity since the interns arrived. Guess how many of this year's interns will be so scared they'll wet their pants?"

"."

Hearing the mocking voices of the hunters around them, many female students turned red with anger, while the male students glared angrily at the hunters.

He's just a few years ahead of them as a monk, what's so great about that!

Li Xingze silently witnessed this scene. These hunters were clearly just novice mages, yet they still had the mind to mock these fledglings.

It's ridiculous.

"Chief Instructor!"

"The head instructor is here!!"

"I am Zhan Kong, your chief instructor for this training. You are a very lucky group, as you are the first group of trainees I have led since I took up my post here."

Zhan Kong's imposing presence, though not angry, silenced all the students.

"Don't worry, since you're the first batch of trainees I'm mentoring, I'll give you preferential treatment to ensure you pass this crucial assessment that will affect your university entrance exams!"

"I know that you are the most outstanding young mages in our Bo City, and I believe that you have enough strength to deal with this trial and assessment."

"So, this big training session was very, very simple."

The head instructor, Zhan Kong, smiled in a harmless manner.

"I just received a bounty. If any team or individual among these 100 students completes this bounty, all of your training assessments will pass and you will receive an A."

Bounty offered!

That would require a skilled mage squad to complete!

"What if none of us can complete the bounty?" Zhou Min, the class monitor, asked.

"Then all of them will fail," Zhan Kong replied calmly.

"Hey, we've only been learning magic for a short time, and you're already sending us to complete bounties? Are you kidding me?!"

"What kind of bullshit instructor is he! I bet he got in through connections!"

All the students looked angry, and many even started cursing.

Logically, this training should have been just a formality, but I never expected that simply changing the instructor would increase the difficulty so much!
