Versatile Mage: I have 999 talents!

Chapter 220 The Dark River? The River of Time!
(Thanks to l love zy for the three writing aids)
Upon arriving at the Asuka City Research Institute, the technologically advanced buildings before him gave Wang Feng the illusion of returning to a scientific world.

Led by Ye Chang, they passed through layers of heavily guarded corridors and finally stopped in front of a laboratory at the very back.

Pushing open the door, a young woman with long violet hair was intently adjusting the equipment.

The hem of her white lab coat swayed gently with her movements, and the purple earrings on her earlobes shimmered faintly in the cool light of the laboratory.

“Teacher!” Shaka turned her head and saw Wang Feng, her face instantly breaking into a bright smile.

"Saga?" Wang Feng was slightly surprised. "When did you arrive?"

“I joined the research association when my teacher was still participating in the Venice National Games.” Shaka pouted, her tone tinged with grievance. “It’s just that my teacher has been too busy and hasn’t come to see me.”

Wang Feng coughed twice to cover his embarrassment: "I heard you guys have developed a magical item that can fuse elements?"

Mentioning the research, Shaka immediately perked up, proudly straightening her back: "That's right! This will usher in a new era for human magical civilization!"

At this moment, Feng Zhoulong walked into the laboratory with a water cup. He was stunned when he saw Wang Feng, but when his gaze swept over Ye Chang behind him, he suddenly realized who it was.

"Oh my!" He exaggeratedly put down his water glass and straightened the collar of his white coat. "Isn't this our congressman? We've been waiting for you!"

The scholar, in his thirties and with a refined appearance, rubbed his hands together and smiled obsequiously.

Wang Feng's eye twitched slightly—this person's appearance and personality were such a stark contrast.

"Where is the fusion artifact?" Wang Feng went straight to the point.

"Oh! This one!" Feng Zhoulong turned around and rummaged through the lab table, quickly holding up a glove with a metallic sheen.

"I call it the 'Gate of All Beings,' which allows the four elements of water, ice, earth, and shadow to perfectly fuse. However..."

He scratched his head. "We haven't found a guinea pig who possesses all four elements yet. No, I mean a mage to test it."

"I'll try," Wang Feng said, extending his hand directly.

The moment he put on the gloves, Wang Feng sensed the subtle changes in the flow of magical energy.

Four distinct elements, guided by the gloves, resonated harmoniously like a symphony.

“Not bad.” Approval flashed in Wang Feng’s eyes. “Not only has it achieved the fusion of four elements, but this glove is more like a 'seed'…”

He moved his fingers thoughtfully, "Once you master this rhythm of fusion, the fusion of other departments will naturally follow."

"Huh?" Feng Zhoulong's eyes widened. "How did you know?"

This is his next project: integration and regeneration!

"Because the teacher can use fusion magic," Shaka explained with a smile.

Feng Zhoulong's eyes suddenly lit up frighteningly, and he stared at Wang Feng as if he had discovered a new experimental subject:
"No wonder Miss Ye Chang's fusion theory is so comprehensive! It turns out she has a ready-made template!"

“Teacher Feng Zhoulong!” Shaka coughed twice to remind him.

"Haha, sorry, sorry, it's my professional habit kicking in." Feng Zhoulong chuckled and scratched his head. "My apologies."

Wang Feng took off his gloves and pondered, "Next, do you plan to submit this fusion system to the Asian Magic Association for certification?"

Feng Zhoulong nodded: "According to convention, all newly developed magic needs to be certified by the Five Continents Association to confirm that it is not evil or forbidden before it can be legally promoted."

A meaningful glint flashed in Wang Feng's eyes, and a faint smile appeared on his lips: "In that case, why don't I accompany your team to the Asian Magic Association?"

He remembered clearly that in the original timeline, after Su Lu learned that Feng Zhoulong had developed fusion magic, he attempted to monopolize the results.

After being rejected, the Bad Boys Guild attacked and killed the entire research team, with only Shaka surviving.

Now that Su Lu has formed a contract with the Emperor Golden Titan, his ambition and strength have swelled to the extreme.

This is a perfect opportunity to use Fengzhoulong as bait to lure the snake out of its hole.

At that time, he will have ample reason—

Kill the newly appointed Speaker of the Asian Parliament!

……

Everything went exactly as Wang Feng had predicted.

After Feng Zhoulong submitted his theoretical findings on fusion magic to the Asian Magic Association, the newly appointed Speaker, Su Lu, immediately took notice of the research. During a private meeting, Feng Zhoulong unhesitatingly rejected Su Lu's offer to recruit him.

Then, just like in the original timeline—

boom! ! !
Shortly after Feng Zhoulong returned to the research team, a deafening explosion suddenly rang out!
Amidst the blinding flames, Shaka's pupils contracted sharply as she saw Wang Feng standing at the center of the explosion, an invisible barrier of chaos engulfing all the raging energy.

The entire room was in ruins, except for the spot where he stood, which remained intact.

"Shaka," Wang Feng's voice was eerily calm, "Could I ask you to protect them?"

Shaka took a deep breath, her clenched fist trembling slightly, but she nodded firmly: "Don't worry, teacher, I will definitely protect Teacher Feng Zhoulong and the others!"

Wang Feng's lips curled up slightly, and magical power surged around him.

Pairs of black and white wings unfolded behind them one after another, the interplay of light and darkness causing the air to tremble.

"I'll go and take care of the problem!"

Before he finished speaking, his figure had already disappeared outside the hole in the wall that had been blasted open.
……

Wang Feng fought his way through the enemy's corpses to the top of the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.

boom!
The conference room door was kicked open, and Su Lu sat at the head of the table with a knowing smile on her face: "Archangel, what a rare guest."

“Yes,” Wang Feng strolled over casually, “It seems that last week’s apology was a waste of time.”

Su Lu calmly stood up and slowly unbuttoned her suit jacket: "Those resources will soon be returned to their rightful owners."

"Just based on that Golden Titan?" Wang Feng scoffed.

Su Lu's expression changed slightly, then she grinned maliciously: "Why don't you try and see?"

He suddenly roared, "Come out, my loyal servant!"

The moon-white portal suddenly opened, and the golden Titan Apollo, as majestic as a mountain, burst forth from the void.

The pitch-black flames of destruction raged and surged, melting even the alloy structure of the Burj Khalifa in their wake.

"Kill him!" Su Lu pointed at Wang Feng in a frenzy.

Apollo's crimson eyes blazed with ferocity as his giant hand, wreathed in world-destroying black flames, slammed down.

"Do you even understand the value of a sixteen-winged seraph?" Wang Feng sneered.

Holy light gathered at the tip of his fist, and with a simple punch, he unleashed it—

boom! ! !
Apollo's massive body was sent flying dozens of kilometers in an instant, crashing through three skyscrapers before finally blasting half of a distant mountain range into the air.

Su Lu's manic smile froze on his face.

"This is impossible! Apollo is an ancient god!" Su Lu's pupils contracted sharply, and he staggered back several steps, his face filled with disbelief.

Wang Feng slowly approached, each step causing the ground to tremble.

Holy light and shadow intertwined and flowed around him, forming a sacred yet eerie halo.

“Precisely because they are ancient gods,” he raised his hand, his palm radiating a destructive light, “they deserve to be eliminated by the new era.”

Su Lu suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, her eyes bloodshot: "Want to kill me? Wishful thinking!"

He suddenly raised his arms high, black lightning crackling wildly at his fingertips.

"The Dark River—!"

With a hysterical roar, the sky suddenly tore open, and a black river of chaotic matter swept across the sky above Dubai, swallowing up even the light in its path.

"Do you think you can turn the tables?"

Wang Feng chuckled, and a yellow stone eye appeared in his palm. The Eye of Time emitted a dazzling blue light.

However, the moment the blue light touched the dark river—

Boom! ! !
Like cold water poured into hot oil, the turbulent flow of spacetime instantly went berserk!
The entire city of Dubai disintegrated in a distorted white light, and even Apollo, who had just gotten up, was not spared, being swept into the vortex of time and space and disappearing without a trace.
