Full-time monk: I am the prophet of civilization!

Otherwise, just the effort required to research the information about the Red Demon's ambush would have been enough to kill Lin Fan.

Upon hearing Lin Fan's explanation, Hua Zhanhong was not disappointed at all; instead, the light in his eyes shone even brighter.

For Hua Zhanhong, he was not afraid of Lin Fan's weakness, but rather of his lack of natural talent.

There are no useless monks, only useless talents.

As long as one's talent is strong enough, even if a mage is a pile of mud, he is confident that he can lift him up to the wall!

"Okay, that's enough for you."

Hua Zhanhong calmed his turbulent thoughts and continued.

“This matter is of great importance. I need to discuss it at length with Shao Zheng and the others. Please keep this confidential.”

"Lin Fan, you should stay with Senior Song for the next few days. This will ensure your safety."

"I will take care of things as soon as possible and then come see you."

"Well, let's wait for good news."

Lin Fan readily agreed to Hua Zhanhong's reasonable arrangements.

"Dean Xiao, I'm also sorry to trouble you with Lin Fan's matter."

"Okay, go ahead and do your thing."

Without wasting time, after understanding all the information, the group quickly and efficiently arranged everything.

The Red Devil from the Imprisonment Mountain was taken away in one go and placed under the supervision of the strongest Dean Xiao.

Hua Zhanhong then contacted other high-ranking officials and took the opportunity to handle the Lu family and the Magic Association's dereliction of duty.

As for Old Man Bao, Cold Hunter, and Lin Fan...

……

Pearl Magic Association.

"Brother Lin Fan, I owe you a lot this time, otherwise I would have suffered a lot."

"Just tell me which magic you want to awaken later, and I'll make sure Lao Guo brings out the best guiding stone..."

As soon as Dean Xiao and Hua Zhanhong left, Cold Hunter King immediately started befriending Lin Fan, addressing him as a brother.

Furthermore, after learning that Lin Fan had not yet awakened his magic, they immediately brought him to the Magic Association to awaken it.

Unable to refuse such hospitality, and also because Lin Fan already wanted to awaken his magic and become stronger.

So he simply agreed.

As for the matter of addressing each other as brothers...

"It's alright, we two are brothers, as for Lingling, Leng Qing and the others, we'll just treat each other as our own..."

Since the Cold Hunt King had said so, Lin Fan naturally couldn't refuse.

Moreover, he was quite curious to see what Lingling's expression would be when she saw him and her father acting like brothers.

Cold Hunter King was indeed acquainted with Guo Liyu of the Awakening House, and quickly helped Lin Fan complete the formalities.

"Young man, what kind of magic do you wish to awaken?"

This differs from the original work's disdain for Mo Fan.

With the Cold Hunter's introduction, Guo Liyu's attitude towards Lin Fan was incredibly friendly.

Faced with Guo Liyu's question, Lin Fan quickly made a decision.

"Light, fire, and water types are all acceptable."

Lin Fan has now entered the vision of the Eastern Empire's higher-ups, and he can focus on cultivating and improving his cultivation level in the early and mid-stages.

Unlike ordinary players, you don't need to awaken high-attack magic early on for monster hunting development.

In this situation, the focus should naturally be on the later stages.

Light and water magic played important roles in the subsequent battles between the undead and the siren in the ancient capital.

The fire element is related to encounters with Flame Princess, Vermilion Bird, and Chongming Bird.

Lin Fan could accept any of the three magic awakenings.

As for the dimensional system...

The probability of initial awakening is too low; saying this is just making things difficult for awakeners.

"okay."

Guo Liyu nodded slightly and quickly prepared Lin Fan for awakening.

A crystal-like awakening stone stands in the center of the room, surrounded by high-grade blue-gold guiding stones.

Even though Lin Fan had not yet awakened, he could still sense the light and water-based energies emanating from him.

He placed his palm on it and closed his eyes.

A strange energy suddenly surged into my body.

It flows through the flesh and blood meridians, reaching directly into Lin Fan's spiritual universe.

Within the spiritual universe, the seven-colored sphere representing the [World Library] sits in the center like the sun.

As energy flowed in, two faint beams of light appeared in two corners of the spiritual universe.

"Blue and pink, naturally dual-color?!"

Looking at the newly formed water and spirit stardust, Lin Fan's eyes lit up with surprise.

Chapter 5 Ai Tutu and the Aftermath of the Red Devil Incident

"Born with dual systems! He was actually born with dual systems! Old Leng, you have to treat me to a good meal, right?"

Guo Liyu was surprised to see Lin Fan awaken the water and mind elements, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

Although being born with two bloodlines seems to give them an advantage over others, it is still a significant advantage.

In reality, having two natural attributes consumes twice as many resources and time, and the strength of a single attribute is only about the same as that of an ordinary person.

Because they spend time cultivating other systems, their potential might not even be as high as that of an ordinary mage.

Compared to talents like elemental affinity, magic enhancement, or even being a calamity victim, being born with two elemental attributes is really just average.

Of course, this is on the premise that people born with dual systems don't have any other cheat codes...

"Born with two systems...that's really enviable..."

Unlike Guo Liyu, Lin Fan, who also possesses the talent of the "World Library" Cold Hunter, only felt that he had "mistakenly entered the Heavenly Realm".

In his more than forty years of life, this was the first time he had ever seen a monk who possessed two kinds of talents.

'My buddy, could he be some kind of world protagonist, a prodigy...?'

In a daze, the Cold Hunter King couldn't help but think of the protagonist in the novels Lingling usually read.

"Hehe, how could that be? That's just a trick for children..."

The Cold Hunter gave a bitter laugh, suppressing his thoughts.

However, there was a hint of hope in her gaze as she looked at Lin Fan.

If anyone could change the current state of humanity, Lin Fan was undoubtedly the one with the greatest hope.

"Hey, Lao Leng, are you pretending to be crazy and not wanting to treat us?"

Cold Hunter looked in the direction of the sound and saw that Guo Liyu's expression was just as incredulous as Red Devil's not long ago.

Even an upright person like Lao Leng (Cold Hunter King) has started to go astray.

"Haha, do you think I'm the kind of person who'd miss out on a drink with you?"

"But we'll have to do it another day. Today I have to treat Brother Lin Fan to a good meal to celebrate."

"Okay, I've got it."

Guo Liyu released the Cold Hunter and handed a business card to Lin Fan.

"Brother Lin Fan, remember to come find me after you awaken in the future, and I'll give you a 50% discount."

"Thank you, I'll definitely do it next time."

……

Lao Gao Hotel.

"Lin Fan, you've become a mage?! I'll cook you a big feast to celebrate!"

A middle-aged man dressed as a chef patted Lin Fan on the shoulder in surprise.

"Yes, thank you, Uncle Gao."

"It's nothing, I should thank you for bringing your friend to my little shop."

"Alright, I'll go cook the dishes first. You guys can chat slowly."

After Lao Gao had gone some distance, Lin Fan began to explain why he had suggested coming to this hotel.

Unlike Mo Fan, who transmigrated into another version of himself, Lin Fan transmigrated into the body of an orphan.

Still the kind of people who starve to death on the streets.

Fortunately, he was saved by Lao Gao and his wife; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to afford the cost of using his talent for the first time.

Lin Fan brought Leng Lie Wang, Leng Qing, Ling Ling, and a few others to Lao Gao's Hotel because he wanted to repay Lao Gao and his wife.

This way, both Cold Hunter King and Cold Qing, who hold high positions, can take care of the hotel.

It also sends a message to the outside world that this hotel is protected by a monk, so nobody should bother us.

"I didn't expect you, such a big bad guy, to have a conscience after all..."

As Lingling's understanding of Lin Fan deepened, her attitude improved considerably.

However...

"Lingling, you mustn't be rude to Brother Lin Fan."

"It's alright. Lingling is just a child. It's understandable that she's a little naughty towards her uncle."

As he spoke, Lin Fan smiled and gently rubbed Lingling's little head.

"You! Hmph! ╭(╯^╰)╮"

Lingling casually slapped Lin Fan's large hand away and turned her head away like a punching bag, ignoring the two of them.

'That big bad guy is still so annoying! (〃＞皿＜)'

After chatting for a while, the originally unfamiliar atmosphere became much more pleasant.

Unfortunately, what was supposed to be a cozy dinner was disrupted by a group of uninvited guests.

A young woman with a broad vision and a nervous expression rushed into the hotel.

Following closely behind was a group of shady young thugs.

"Run? Even if you run into a hotel, no one will save you!"

The blond-haired leader stared intently at the panicked girl like a hungry wolf.

Seeing the scene before them, Lin Fan and the others couldn't help but frown.

Just as I was about to get up, I heard the blond-haired thug shout.

"Boss! Look over there, there are two more beauties!"

"You have a good eye, kid. Come on, let's take them back with us!"

Just as the blond-haired man was about to approach, he suddenly felt incredibly peaceful, and was then knocked to the ground by a heavy punch.

Mind-based beginner magic, Lingyi - Soothing.

Also known as the beggar's version of Nangong Wenya touching whoever is stupid.

Although the first level of the Mind System might not be very effective against demons, it's still enough to fight ordinary people.

"You bastard! You're asking for it!"
