Versatile Mage: Lord of the Styx, but Lord of the Living

Chapter 2: The Styx, Encompassing Everything, Swallowing Everything
The Styx is a derivative of the fusion of the water system and the undead system.

Lu Ran stared at the black silk for a moment and came to a conclusion:
The water of the Styx is very strong!
This seems like bullshit.

But Lu Ran knew that as long as he could control the Styx, his future would definitely be extraordinary.

Unlike normal junior water mages who can only provide protection, Lu Ran can fight with the help of this black water silk, also known as the Styx!
Right now, he needs experiments.

After the magic awakening ceremony.

Lu Ran slowly breathed a sigh of relief and opened his eyes.

The magic awakening in the outside world is already halfway through.

Zhang Xiaohou returned from the podium somewhat excitedly. He had awakened the Wind Element, which had a fairly good reputation.

Unlike the students who awakened the light and water elements and cried for help, Mu Bai, who awakened the ice element, believed that he was superior.

Zhou Min, who has awakened the fire element, is also in high spirits.

As for the few light and water students in the class, after venting their anger, they all collapsed on the table with despair.

Lu Ran took in everyone's expressions.

He sighed softly, feeling somewhat helpless and emotional.

Everyone thinks that light and water elements are the weakest.

But no one would have thought that the light system would be so prosperous in ancient times, and the super-level demon sword was the strongest single-target magic.

The water system will become the answer to future sea level rise.

In the future Magic City, water mages will become popular and indispensable figures in every mage team.

But the prerequisite is that you can live to that time.

The basic light bulb and the simple water shield are really useless and difficult to grow.

"Number 49, Mo Fan!"

The last student in the class was said to have been admitted through connections.

Except for Lu Ran and Zhang Xiaohou, almost everyone looked at Mo Fan with strange eyes.

"Brother Fan, come on!" Zhang Xiaohou turned his head and whispered encouragement.

"Come on." Lu Ran also nodded to Mo Fan.

Feeling the concern from his two best friends, Mo Fan took a deep breath and walked towards the podium resolutely.

Just as we all know, as soon as Mo Fan placed his hand on the Awakening Stone, a dazzling burst of purple lightning erupted from Class 7 in the next classroom.

That was a shocking scene that only occurred when lightning magic awakened.

"Thunder, it's Thunder, someone in the next class has awakened the Thunder!"

This shout caused everyone in Class 8 of Grade 1, except Lu Ran, to rush out of the classroom.

Even Mo Fan's best friend Zhang Xiaohou was attracted by the purple light and wanted to see who had awakened the one in a thousand chance of lightning.

When they returned in shock, they discovered that Mo Fan, who had entered through the back door, had actually awakened the Fire Element, which was second only to the Thunder Element!

This plot made Lu Ran feel really fucked up.

No, buddy, Xu Zhaoting, what talent do you have in thunder?

Awakening a magic, the purple light almost blinded my eyes through the classroom!
Look at Mo Fan, the light he awakened from the lightning element is not as bright as the light bulb of others who awakened from the light element!

What made Lu Ran feel even more strange was that besides Mo Fan staring at him with a constipated expression, his homeroom teacher Xue Musheng was also staring at him.

As soon as the magic awakening ceremony was over, everyone went back to their respective homes.

Mo Fan immediately found Lu Ran and wanted to go with him.

Lu Ran was just about to take a walk and study the Styx in his body when Xue Musheng stopped him.

"Lu Ran, come with me to the office!"

Lu Ran was accompanied by several classmates who had also awakened the Water Element, and also the Light Element. Seeing this scene, Lu Ran had some guesses in his mind.

Seeing this, Mo Fan had no choice but to rush to the road that Lu Ran had to take to get home, ready to block him and let Brother Ran keep the secret.

Ten minutes later, Lu Ran was holding a 'guarantee letter not to commit suicide' in his hand.

Lu Ran definitely didn't want to be forced by the school to sign something like this.

Beginner water and light mages really have no human rights!

On the way home, Mo Fan successfully stopped Lu Ran.

Looking at Mo Fan, who had a sinister look on his face and a twisted smile, Lu Ran's mouth twitched.
"What are you doing?"

Unexpectedly, when Mo Fan heard Lu Ran speak, he immediately slid to his knees and muttered:

"Brother Ran, Father Lu, you saw it, right? You must have seen it, right?"

Lu Ran sighed. He was not blind, so how could he not have seen Mo Fan’s awakening?

"Don't worry, I'm not that boring. If you don't reveal it yourself, no one else will know that you are born with dual elements."

After hearing this, Mo Fan grinned. He could definitely trust Lu Ran's character.

When Mo Fan thought about his 'big brother' Lu Ran who had only awakened the water element, his mind went crazy and he said:

"Brother Ran, don't worry, you protected me before, and I will protect you in the future!"

"Protect me?"

Lu Ran muttered strangely, Mo Fan, you are turning the tables on Tiangang!
As expected, it’s better to beat the younger brother as early as possible!
Now that Mo Fan has awakened thunder and fire, his bones have become tougher. I'm afraid that anyone who looks down on him will have to say: Don't bully the young and poor!
"Yes, when I have mastered my magic, I will help you electrocute or burn anyone you don't like."

At this time, Mo Fan's confidence had reached the peak of his life.

In the past, Lu Ran had incredible grades and a stronger fist, so Da Mo Fan couldn't get a word in.

But from today on, the era of Great Mo Fan has arrived!
There is no other day in the world more exciting than today's magic awakening.

Lu Ran was the same, so he didn't bother arguing with Mo Fan. He was anxious to go back and study the 'River Styx'.

"Okay, okay, if you can beat me in the future, I'll let you be the big brother."

After saying that, Lu Ran disappeared in a flash, leaving behind Mo Fan, who was grinning foolishly.

At home, Lu Ran had already come to a conclusion.

"So that's how it is. The Styx possesses the power of both water and the undead. It can embrace everything and devour everything. Moreover, the Styx can grow infinitely!"

Lu Ran thought of a word, that is 'growth potential'!
The 'River of Styx' now lingering around the stardust is only two or three meters long, which is its initial state.

But in the future, as long as Lu Ran continues to let the "River Styx" devour it, he can make it grow from a trickle of several meters long into a surging ocean!

As for things that can make the Styx grow, Lu Ran also had some ideas.

It is likely related to demons, but further experiments are needed.

With a thought, four strands of black silk appeared around Lu Ran, lingering around his body.

This is not the release of elementary magic, but the Styx derived from innate talent.

The River Styx protects the body, and the black water silk has the power to erode, corrode, embrace and protect.

Lu Ran casually picked up a black pen and poked it towards the water. The pen tip was instantly swallowed up by the water.

Lu Ran narrowed his eyes slightly, and controlled the Styx with his consciousness, poking the black pen into the black water again.

But this time, the black pen was not destroyed, but was wrapped in black water silk.

"Is this what it means to devour and embrace?"

Lu Ran seemed to be thinking about something, then looked at the potted succulent plants by the window.

I wonder if plants with life can make the Styx 'grow'?
