Am I a god-tier talent in all my professions?

Chapter 72 Rematch - Izparut (Two-in-One)

It's also thanks to the fact that this world is a society governed by the rule of law.

That's why Maizer wasn't killed.

Lu Cang still made an appointment with Maizer, since these were the only friends he had in Raine.

Lu Cang pretended not to see his character in matters of the heart.

After finishing the personnel matters, Lu Cang went to the commercial street of Raine Town.

Actually, there's not much to sell in Raine Town. It's just a small town, and everyone gathers here because of the monster tide. Iz and the others are just passing through.

After the hustle and bustle fades, Rennes remains just a quiet, ordinary town.

It might just add another legend to the stories told by wandering poets.

"Oh, this."

"Could you please give me two bags?"

Buy two bags of pomegranates for Iz and two bags of dates for Kumironi. I heard that Obades eats stones, so forget about that.

Chi Cheng... he'll probably be eating meat at the hotel.

I browsed the staff shop, but there weren't any staffs that interested me to buy.

I went to the pharmacy again.

The apothecary was commissioned to create a potion from the pure essence blood extracted from the Blood King.

"Blood Resurrection Elixir (Tier 3) (Common)"

"Effect: Quickly restores severely injured injuries, applicable to level 3 professionals, removes blood-related curses, and temporarily grants strength equivalent to a level 2 warrior."

It should be a very effective treatment solution.

Lu Cang never thought he had too many things to save his life.

Even with a "death substitute", it's the same.

The Death Stand ultimately requires a corpse as a activation condition, and it's difficult for the user to leave corpses lying around at will.

Scroll shop.

This time, Lu Cang bought a whopping 5 "Random Teleportation Scrolls".

This stuff is quite expensive, 200 gold coins per roll.

At the time, I thought one scroll would be enough, and there was no way to continuously transfer data in a short period of time.

Now it seems we really need to prepare several more.

There are even monsters that can tear scrolls apart, who the hell would have thought?
I browsed the magic shop, and indeed there were no magic spells available to learn.

Lu Cang wanted to see if there was anything that the Death Priest class could use.

I strolled through the entire commercial street.

It really doesn't.

That makes sense, since it's a profession that's prohibited by law.

On the way back, I went to the top floor of the library again, and the door to the top floor was open.

But it was all empty now; Pali was indeed gone.

……

West Gate of Rennes

“Iz”.

The west gate is now completely restored, and the large crater that was dug outside has been filled in.

The post-battle repairs were completed quite quickly.

"Stone-making technique" and "Earth-filling technique"

These are two first-tier minor spells that can generate some stone and dirt on the surface of an object.

It's basically useless in combat.

Spells like ground spikes and stone walls are combat magic derived from these two minor spells.

Lu Cang handed Iz a pomegranate.

"Can I level up to level 3 mage now?"

Iz looked at Lu Cang, and after a moment replied, "Almost there."

Lu Cang paused for a moment, then said, "Iz, I think I might also have some talent in other professions."

"Can I take on another part-time job?"

Lu Cang finally spoke and raised the question.

Developing multiple careers simultaneously is indeed my ideal path.

Izzy: "Hmm... I actually already thought of that. Your situation is rather special."

"After all, even a level 1 Death Priest wouldn't be able to seriously injure the Zerg King under normal circumstances."

"I've thought about it; your talent might extend beyond magic."

"But have you considered how to balance height and breadth?"

"The more jobs you hold, the slimmer your chances of reaching a high position in any one of them become."

"Some professional standards are mutually exclusive."

"For example, your current role as a death priest is incompatible with the principles of a healing mage."

"The principle of the death priest is death, while the principle of the healer is life. It is difficult for a person to adhere to the principles of life and death at the same time."

"The more jobs you take on, the more rules you will have to follow."

"The higher you go, the more difficult it will be."

"You should also realize that a level 6 mage is far stronger than a job changer who is simultaneously juggling six level 1 combat professions."

Lu Cang looked up and said to Iz seriously, "Yes, I understand."

"So, Iz, I'm also confused about this."

"So I would like to get your opinion."

Izzy smiled and said, "Not bad, you know to consult with others on important decisions."

"Not being stubborn is a very valuable quality."

"Actually, White Tower has made new progress in its exploration of career options. If you really want to do part-time work, there is a really good option."

Lu Cang: "What choice?"

"Decryption scholar".

Upon hearing this answer, Lu Cang froze on the spot.

This profession was the secret document that Messer gave him.

"This is the profession that Mercedes gave me."

Iz: "Well, it's actually the profession that best fits the principles of a mage."

"The principle of deciphering scholars is to unravel complex puzzles and mysteries."

"The mage's principle is to seek the root."

"The two principles complement each other, and in terms of function, the decryption scholar can be said to be a profession tailor-made for magicians."

“Part-time decryption scholars may even be recognized by the root cause.”

“What Messer has prepared for you is like paving the way for you; he hopes you will become a high-ranking magician.”

The more I talked, the worse it felt.

One of the most terrifying criminals of this century is paving the way for himself.

"But before that, let's level up to level 3 mage first, and then go do part-time work."

Having another job will inevitably have some impact on your promotion.

Lu Cang: "That's true."

……

As they walked and talked, the two arrived at the training ground again.

This time, Izzy rented a huge training ground.

This is the largest site in Raine, expanded by the expansion stone.

The rental fee is 2 gold coins per hour. If you wish, you can also hire cheerleaders to cheer you on, and there are relaxation services available when you get tired of practicing.

Since Lu Cang was a child, Izzy did not use these services.

No... don't treat me like a child right now.

With some guidance from Izzy, Lu Cang created two new spells.

"Flame Barrier" and "Shadow Binding"

The Flame Shield is a protective shield of flames surrounding the user, which can not only provide protection but also cause damage.

Shadow Binding is a very standard dark-based control spell.

Dark magic is mostly about "control," "curse," and "weakening," but its destructive power is quite weak.

Immediately afterwards, Izzy taught Lu Cang eight new spells.

"Rainfall," "Magic Missile," "Flame Shot," "Whirlwind Spear," "Sweeping Stone Fist," "Thorn Bush," "Thunderball," "Flame Ray"

The learning difficulty of "Magic Missile", "Thorn Bush", and "Sweeping Stone Fist" is S-rank.

All other skills, except for the Rainfall Technique, are at an A-level difficulty.

The only skill that requires learning is at level C difficulty.

This was all said by Izparut.

So it turns out there's a difference in learning difficulty between different spells of the same rank. Lu Cang had thought all second-rank spells were the same, and that for him, mastering them was simply a matter of chanting incantations.

Now that he has learned many more second-tier spells, Lu Cang is gradually understanding the role of second-tier spells.

It has weak functionality and basic damage output. Even its area-of-effect (AOE) damage is limited to a radius of about 5 meters. Beyond that distance, it can't cause any effective damage.

If the skill level doesn't increase, it can only basically kill weak first-tier monsters instantly and deal effective damage to second-tier monsters. You can't expect any outstanding performance.

After teaching the spells, they cleared up any doubts about magical knowledge.

Iz stretched out her arm and stood about 100 meters away from Lu Cang.

Lu Cang also casually summoned his staff.

Iz: "Alright, let's see how much you've improved lately."

"I will still only use first- and second-tier spells."

It was at this moment that Cumroni opportunely pushed open the door and entered.

"Oh my, has it already started?"

"Then, little Lu Cang, fight with the mindset that it doesn't matter if you kill Iz," Kumironi said with a smile.

Iz responded in a relaxed tone: "Haha, Kumironi, you should be worried about Lu Cang."

"Sacrifice - 1 soul"

"Increase - Flame Shield Proficiency"

"Sacrifice - 1 Soul" "Increase - Shadow Binding Proficiency"

"Sacrifice - 1 soul"

"Increase - Magic Missile Proficiency"

……

"Sister Kumironi, I hope you can protect Master Iz."

Izzy's lips curled up slightly, her tone gradually becoming more cheerful: "Lu Cang, you really have no shame."

"It seems that as your mentor, I really need to teach you what it means to be out of your depth."

Kumironi smiled, but Lu Cang couldn't tell what she was thinking.

Will she hate me if I offer my soul as a sacrifice in front of her?

The principles of death priests and healers... are, after all, in conflict.

But the souls I'm sacrificing are from monsters, so it should be fine, right?

"Iz, are you ready..."

Before Lu Cang could finish speaking, a lightning flash was already flashing around Iz!
The fastest starting move!
Almost simultaneously, twelve layers of "mountain walls" rose up, and a permafrost lake formed beneath Izzy's feet, with poisonous vines sprouting from the walls on all sides!

Fifteen "light-transmitting spears" formed of light crashed down from the sky, along with "falling rocks from the heavens"!
The eight spells I had just learned, along with the two spells I had created myself, instantly brought me to LV: 201 through the sacrifice of my soul.
Evolution complete!
"Continuous Multiple Missiles," "Scattered Flames," "Gale Through the Barrier," "Magnificent Stone Arm," "Torn Thorns," "Shock Ball," "Burning Ejection," "Shadowy Hand"...

……

A dazzling spell erupted in an instant!

"God-level Multicast" allows you to cast as many spells as you've learned simultaneously.

Even if other mages learn new spells, they still have to chant them one by one. Even if they learn hundreds of spells, they will only choose the most useful ones to cast in battle.

How could anyone be like Lu Cang...

Indiscriminate bombardment!

"Not bad!"

"Lu Cang, you always manage to surprise me!" Izzy's words echoed in Lu Cang's mind.

Lu Cang's transcendent magic has undergone another evolution!

Moreover, Lu Cang's spellcasting speed has improved significantly compared to before!
Three layers of barriers appeared in front of Lu Cang!
At the same time, the "Thick Lava Shield" also covered Lu Cang's body!
But suddenly!
boom!
A hurricane burst forth!
The five-layered wall was pierced through by a gust of wind almost instantly!

"Gathering Kill Wind Bind (Second Tier)"

Bang bang bang!
After piercing through two layers of barriers, the gust of wind finally stopped!
Lu Cang breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, this time it wasn't completely breached!

No, is this something to be relieved about?

How could my defenses be so strong that I have to worry about being penetrated by a single second-tier spell?

Boom!

But there's no time to think about that.

In the distance, elemental bursts erupted, and the heavy walls were swept away with overwhelming force!

The offensive that they themselves had constructed.

It was blown to pieces.

Iz was surrounded by vibrant colors, which had completely extinguished all the magic she had released.

Iz... you're as outrageous as ever.

However, I'm not weak either!
boom!
The Ice Shuttle split just before being hit by Iz's Fireball! It dodged Iz's Fireball.

Following closely behind, extinguishing Iz's "Towering Flame Wave" was Lu Cang's "Giant Wave".

Waves collide with scorching heat!
boom!
A surge of white mist erupted in the center of the venue!
Iz stole and learned her own self-created magic!
The "Flame Wave Technique" that I created was somehow learned by it.

And he achieved this breakthrough without even using it.

Dog Iz, when you said you only use first- and second-tier magic, did you mean beyond magic?

Did you use Transcendence Magic when you were a level 2 mage?
The two spells clashed at the center.

Exploding into countless ice and fire!
Iz's other magic instantly appeared around Lu Cang!
Lu Cang raised his hand and swept it!
【Magnificent Stone Arm】

Boom——

The three stone arms appeared as if they had appeared in mid-air, sweeping across the land with overwhelming force!
However, several brilliant lights flashed!

hum-

Whoosh whoosh!
The three stone arms were pierced and shattered with a crash!

Immediately afterwards, countless fireballs, stone projectiles, water projectiles, and wooden spikes flew towards Lu Cang!

Towering walls!
Lu Cang raised a heavy wall to block these missile-like spells.

But in the next instant, Iz's charm pierced through it all!
call!
A huge gap opened up.

These countless stray bullets struck Lu Cang's triple "thick lava shield" and almost instantly turned into ashes and dissipated.

A small portion of the attacks penetrated the triple-thick lava shield.

It was also blocked by Lu Cang's inner barrier!

"The response has been good."

"The reaction time is much faster than before."

Izzy's voice still echoed in Lu Cang's mind out of nowhere.

"Tsk."

Annoying.

Iz's magic had already reached him, and in the clash of magic against magic, he was still being suppressed.

Lu Cang sensed the elemental turmoil beneath the earth!

underground……

"Repelling wind blast"

The gale blasted him away!

At the same time, his feet stepped on the ice shuttle, instantly propelling him into the distance!
Almost as soon as they were fleeing, the earth burst open!

however……

One after another, the pillars rushed towards him like a never-ending, stretching rock serpent!
Lu Cang had no choice but to summon the Earth Fire Collapse!
boom!
The pillar of fire that spewed from the earth destroyed the pursuing pillar.

"Unfortunately, his imagination wasn't rich enough."

"He's still far from proficient in using magic!"

Lu Cang looked towards Iz.

But all that could be seen was a thick fog, with chaotic elements within it, making it impossible to spot Iz's figure.

"If they disappear, will they stop attacking?"

Lu Cang maintained his backward flight while slightly hooking his finger!
"Wind Boom"

boom!
The wind instantly dispersed the fog.

However, Izzy was nowhere to be seen.

At first glance, Lu Cang looked up abruptly!

Then I saw Iz right above my head!

Upon seeing Iz, a burst of lightning surged forth, and at the same time, a swarm of life-giving winds surrounded Iz, intending to strangle her.

"Very sharp."

"But in a magical battle, is the only thing you need to pay attention to just the enemy mage's figure?"

"Where is his magic?!"

Lu Cang suddenly realized that the elements below him were extremely agitated!
Under normal circumstances, the agitation of this element is very sensitive, and Lu Cang should be able to detect it immediately.

However, at this time, during the battle with Iz.

Magic was flying everywhere, and the magic was constantly canceling each other out.

Everywhere you look, there are exciting elements.

It is difficult to detect anything unusual in such a chaotic battlefield.

The earth has been set ablaze!

Behind them was an impending eruption of subterranean fire!

"Steel-clad piercing pillar," "Sharp icicle," "Sudden burst of wooden spikes"

Iz's evolutionary path is not entirely the same as its own.

His ground spike technique is an evolution of hardness.

The three giant spikes that pierced the earth from below were already rushing towards Lu Cang!
call--

"Sacrifice souls - 1000"

"Enhance - Power of the Horizontal Piercing Pillar"

Swish!
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!
Lu Cang's move came instantly!

In an instant, dozens of deep black and hard pillars were seen to burst open in the earth!

Almost instantly, a steel jungle was formed!

It directly smashed and shattered the three-elemental pillars released by Iz!
Iz's impact column is of extremely high quality.

In that brief moment, Iz blocked all her paths, and no matter what other magic she used, it was always just a fraction of a second too late.

A weak spell couldn't destroy his pillar.

There wasn't enough time for the powerful magic.

Iz, I didn't want to fight you using the Death Priest class.

If sacrificing souls increases proficiency, it's just to save time, since these spells can be maxed out by practicing for a while.

But using the sacrifice of souls in battle is another matter entirely.

Amidst the roar of colorful spells around him, Lu Cang's magic was visibly weakening.

Iz's magic gradually formed an encirclement, and she was about to kill Lu Cang.

It seems.

In terms of pure magic, I really can't beat you. I have to admit, you are a very strong magician.

Now that we've already started...

Lu Cang pointed his staff at Iz.

"Spirit Explosion"

hum-

A faint, rippling soul light instantly formed on Izzy's face.

"Sacrifice souls - 5000"
