Chapter 3: The Reader Class Is Too Terrifying
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Aiyo! This old man Merlin was really a trustworthy person!
Lin Bai held the Elder Wand in one hand and casually threw the incomplete “Merlin’s Autobiography” back to its original place with the other.
When he arrived at the entrance of the library, he wanted to greet the old librarian, but after coughing thrice, the old man still didn’t wake up. Lin Bai smiled embarrassedly. The librarian probably didn’t hear Lin Bai secretly tearing books in front of him, right?
As Lin Bai thought about this, he pushed open the wooden door of the library and bumped into a pair of large white buns.
Aiyo, f*ck!
This elasticity simply provided a perfect facial care service!
“Watch where you’re going!” A graceful voice that was like the sound of nature sounded. However, it also carried a hint of coldness.
“Shh, the old man is sleeping!” Lin Bai pointed at the librarian and lowered his head, avoiding Su Ya’s murderous gaze with a flushed face.
Taking small steps, Lin Bai recalled the scene as he walked. “Yeah, those were perfect!”
“You rogue!” Su Ya gritted her teeth and glared at Lin Bai until his figure disappeared from her sight!
Su Ya wrapped her arms around her shoulders as she entered the library and looked down at the blurry footprints under her feet. She followed Lin Bai’s footsteps and arrived at the first row of bookshelves. Then, her beautiful eyes swept over the bookshelf in front of her.
In the next second, she accurately picked up “Merlin’s Autobiography” and casually flipped through it, flipping to the few pages that Lin Bai had torn off.
Hm?!
Following her professional instincts, Su Ya turned her head slightly and followed Lin Bai’s footprints to the last row of bookshelves. Then, she instantly put together the pieces of paper on the ground!
“Merlin wasn’t a Mage?!” Su Ya stared at the incomplete words on the paper with shock.
[Reader]!
Was… Lin Bai also a Reader?!
After casually throwing the scraps of paper into the furnace not far from the door, Su Ya’s gaze landed on the old librarian for a moment before she chased after Lin Bai.
At this moment, Lin Bai was currently humming a tune and waving the Elder Wand in his hand.
“Legend has it that this thing can use any kind of magic! I wonder if it really has such power. Actual practice will show me the truth!”
After making up his mind, Lin Bai turned a corner and walked straight towards the training field.
Although Sorcha College was poor, it had a good foundation. After all, it was founded by the archmage, Merlin. Thus, it was the only university in Orlando that had a training field on its campus!
The training field was surrounded by mountains on all sides. Only in the middle was there a basin the size of a football field. As there were layers of mountains blocking the way, the outside world would not be affected by the release of magic or even summoning spells here.
This was Lin Bai’s first time coming to the training field. After all, he was a weak player who would pant from fatigue after carrying 25 kilograms of rice to the third floor. Thus, his best sport was locking himself in a small, dark room and sowing seeds there.
“Oh?!”
As soon as he arrived at the training field, a huge black rock that was more than ten meters tall came into view.
“This damned thing is towering! Eh? There are words on it!” Lin Bai held the magic wand and walked towards the stone.
“Tiny Hunters!”
Tiny?! Hmm, indeed, the living environment of the Hunters was harsh, and the condition of their bodies were not too good!
Next, Lin Bai saw Merlin’s signature again. Furthermore, there were three lightning marks beside his signature!
Lin Bai touched the three lightning marks. He could still feel the tremendous heavenly might that was enough to shock the world.
He looked around and saw countless short swords and bent metal rods on the ground.
Was this a touchstone to test one’s standards?
These words immediately appeared in Lin Bai’s mind!
He looked down at the Elder Want in his hand. Although he had only obtained three forbidden spells from “Magical Youth and the Demon King”, these three should be enough!
“Reducto!”
Lin Bai slowly raised his Elder Wand sternly and pointed it at the nearby rock.
At that moment, boundless power seemed to surge from Lin Bai’s body towards the wand. Then, the power smashed heavily against the black rock.
Boom!
Lin Bai simply felt his arm tremble slightly. In an instant, the huge rock in the training field that had experienced countless magical attacks and blades instantly collapsed and shattered into countless pieces.
“Scourgify!”
With a low howl from Lin Bai, a powerful force blew the shattered rock away.
In an instant, sand and rocks flew everywhere. Even the trees within a ten-meter radius were cut in half!
At the same time, a huge golden circle of light spread out from the huge rock.
“Hu!”
The powerful aftershock stirred up a violent wind with the huge rock at the center. Even the duck egg-sized pieces of rock were blown into the air by the violent wind.
Upon seeing this scene, even Lin Bai was shocked by this attack.
He had never dreamed that his very casual magic would be so powerful.
Lin Bai furrowed his brows and thought of the last spell.
Avada Kedavra…
However, this thought only flashed through his mind, but Lin Bai did not chant the spell.
Just then, there was a rustling sound behind him.
Lin Bai instantly turned his head to look at the mountains behind him and said coldly, “Who is it?”
“Your hearing is still very sharp!”
As a heavenly voice sounded, a pair of snow-white “rabbits” appeared in front of his eyes. Only after Su Ya stood up did Lin Bai let out a long sigh.
“Do you want to practice with me? Or do you want to go somewhere else and have a good ‘practice’ with me?” Lin Bai had a harmless smile on his face, but his hand that was holding his magic wand tightened.
“You’re really not bad! I’ve underestimated you!” However, Su Ya’s random words dumbfounded Lin Bai.
“Don’t look at me like that!”
Su Ya glared at Lin Bai.
“Eh… Actually, I was looking at a rabbit behind you. Um… your chest blocked my vision!” Lin Bai walked towards Su Ya with a smile.
“Stop!” Su Ya took a step back and stared vigilantly at Lin Bai. This was because Su Ya could see killing intent from his smile!
“Didn’t you chase me because you wanted to get close to me?” Lin Bai did not stop walking. Instead, he was getting closer and closer to Su Ya.
“No! I’m looking for a partner!” Su Ya was clearly flustered as her usually cold face was slightly moved.
“A partner?!” Lin Bai instantly held back his smile and stopped walking as he stared at Su Ya.
“That’s right. We both need the best partner to pass the Hunter Elementary Test with!” Su Ya said nervously.
“I…” Lin Bai hesitated for a moment, then said with a smile, “don’t need that!”
“For a first-year student to successfully pass the Hunter Elementary Test, the secret that you want to hide the most will be exposed!” Su Ya gulped. “My presence can help you hide the secret of your identity as a Reader!”
At that moment, Su Ya’s assassin instincts told her that as long as Lin Bai casually attacked her, her life would end.
“I didn’t expect a cold beauty like you to be so considerate!” Lin Bai smiled. Under Su Ya’s shocked gaze, the magic wand that frightened her disappeared from Lin Bai’s palm.
“It’s a deal!” Lin Bai dug his ears and smiled extremely brightly..
