Post-Apocalyptic Survival Modpack

Chapter 41: Talent

"Come on!"

Deep underground, as soon as he jumped down, Wang Ji immediately called for a retreat and headed towards the Gates of Hell.

Morin followed without hesitation.

We have to follow; the top of our heads is starting to shake, something is definitely about to come down.

Behind the two was a figure of a cricket pupa tied to the ground.

"Don't abandon me!"

He wailed.

Morin turned around and kicked him.

"Bagett family lackeys, stop pretending to be innocent! You gatekeepers are the worst at abusing civilians!"

"I was wrong, I was wrong!"

Swah——

The sound disappeared behind them, and the two crossed the Gate of Hell. Soon after, the gate closed automatically.

The situation on the other side is clearly not good; it's probably collapsed.

"Tsk."

Above the manor, looking at the mess, the sorcerer holding a staff floated in mid-air with a displeased expression.

"I really want to summon a meteorite and smash this place to pieces."

"Don't."

Another sorcerer arrived, looking relaxed, seemingly just there to watch the spectacle.

He remarked casually, "If they really do that, it won't just be this one manor that suffers."

"Do whatever you want, even if you destroy the capital, it doesn't matter, just don't wake up the Grand Mage."

"What happened to this family? Were they wiped out by their enemies?"

"Seems to be."

The magical aid that came to Bagget's house made him appear very calm.

Another person said:
"I knew these people would ruin themselves sooner or later."

"Although the probability is low, what if another great mage suddenly appears?"

"puff."

Upon hearing this, even the sorcerer who had just finished bombing couldn't help but laugh.

"If you can find another magician who can beat everyone to a pulp at the age of ten, I'll swallow the alchemy table in my house."

"Oh wait, this is bad, it seems he really has run away."

Is that a door?

...

"It's so hot, so suffocating, where am I?"

As soon as he landed, Morin felt a blast of hot air hit him, as if he were near the lava of a volcano.

"This is hell, or the lower realm."

Wang Ji provided the answer.

Morin's eyes widened in surprise. "A new dimension!?"

"Alright, don't be surprised yet. I'm tired of hearing similar questions. There will be plenty of time to learn about this place later."

"The question now is whether you can stay in this place for an extended period of time."

"Is there a problem here?" Morin asked.

Wang Ji pointed to the huge lava lake not far away and said, "As you can see, the environment is the biggest problem."

"I can handle other things like monsters and undead, but I don't have any good solutions for environmental issues yet."

"You'll be traveling here for a long time from now on. If you can't adapt, it will significantly delay your journey."

Why are we traveling here?

Mo Lin's focus, however, was on the last sentence Wang Ji said.

His intuition told him that there seemed to be some secret on it.

"Because walking one meter in this world is equivalent to walking eight meters in the present world."

Maureen was once again shocked.

"Interdimensional travel!"

However, he quickly recovered and said, "It's okay, don't worry about me. I can withstand the temperature here. After all, I am a sorcerer, even if it's a low-level one."

As he spoke, he began to tinker with it.

"The fire element here is very abundant, which is good. As long as we disrupt this element and inject chaotic element, we can achieve a bipolar transformation effect, changing its properties..."

hula-

A blast of cold air appeared out of nowhere.

This time, it was Wang Ji's turn to be surprised.

"Are low-level sorcerers this skilled?" Morin shook his head and replied, "I don't know. It's said that knowledgeable sorcerers all flock to universities, but as you can see, I couldn't even get in. I was ushered into the manor by a bunch of guards while I was still in the reception room."

"I didn't even go into the waiting room."

Wang Ji shook his head.

That's inhuman!

"But I'm a little curious."

Wang Ji then asked, "What is your talent?"

Although the number of idiots among the top officials in the capital is very high, those who catch their eye are probably not simple people.

"I'm not sure how to describe it."

Maureen recalled, "From birth, I was able to sense more than others, and many natural ideas formed in my mind..."

and many more…

Wang Ji's face twitched.

This sounds so familiar.

You stole my script?
"Later I learned that those things were called 'elements.' I could directly sense the elements that make up things: earth, fire, wind, water, order, and chaos..."

“I have never been to school, never received any talent development training, and never systematically studied various magical theories. All the magic I cast is based on rules that I have summarized myself, but I often feel that what I have summarized is very crude.”

"I heard that I could learn more at the Imperial University, so I came here."

"I was warmly greeted in the reception room and told that I could take you to the Imperial Archives to look around. By the time I realized I was in the wrong place, it was too late."

"That's really bad."

Wang Ji sighed and asked:
Are you sure you want to work with me?

Morin nodded and said firmly:
“I sensed it from the first time we met. There is some kind of absolute rule in you, and the normal movement of all elements must give way in front of you.”

"You are definitely not an ordinary person."

"Is that so?"

Wang Ji said, "Then come back with me in a while. Although my place doesn't have the same resources as the capital, at least there's a place where you can use your talents."

At this moment, the young man who failed to enter university has no idea that he will skip many years of detours and go straight onto the right path.

— Enter the construction site.

"My name is Wang Ji."

Wang Ji introduced himself, saying, "The middle section of the northern mountain range is my territory."

"So he's a great lord!"

Morin's eyes lit up.

Since going to the capital is out of the question, it would be good to be able to associate with a lord.

that is…

"Excuse me, how old are you?"

"Seven years old."

"what?"

"I have some talent that allows me to learn more."

Upon hearing this, Morin suddenly understood.

"understood."

It's quite effortless to talk to truly talented people.

You don't need to make anything up yourself, because the other person really has it, and he will fill in the gaps based on his own experiences.

"So, sir, where shall we go next? Back to the territory?"

Wang Ji was a little uncomfortable with this sudden title.

He has also become a lord.

"No, we have to wait a while longer."

"Let's go somewhere else first."

The other place Wang Ji mentioned was naturally his hometown.

He really wanted to go back and see.

Having chosen his direction, Wang Ji did not leave Hell for the next fifteen days, but instead continued westward, constantly making his way.

The process was very boring, but thankfully there was Morin, who, although he had never been to school, knew a lot of things.

As he said, the elements are transparent to him; he can directly decompile things with his own eyes and mind.

Wang Ji occasionally mentioned the situation at the mine, talking about the magic crystal power machine there. After about half a day, Mo Lin actually proposed a method that Wang Ji couldn't understand but felt was very professional.

"You are a talent."

At this moment, Wang Ji really wanted to say something he had heard from Ryder many times.

The fools in the capital will never know what they've missed.
