Chapter 121 The Great Magus, Refuses!
When Ye Xuan returned to his stronghold, three hours had passed.
Although I was a little tired, I was unusually excited.
"There were quite a few NPCs in my previous life who loved drinking monkey wine, but now the only one I can actually see is that Grand Mage."
Those that can be easily discovered by players are all regular NPCs and generally do not possess any special abilities.
The archmage Ye Xuan wanted to meet was an extremely powerful individual with strength in all three elemental systems.
Their mastery of elements has surpassed the level of "mindfulness" and reached the third level.
The only time it made a move, as far as I can remember, was when alien NPCs attacked, attempting to lead alien players to conquer the territory they had occupied.
The Archmage summoned a magma hell, burying all the hundreds of thousands of invading alien races.
Based on speculation, he should be the guardian of the territory he occupies.
Normally, someone with his strength should be found in a higher-level chaotic realm.
But for some reason, they voluntarily weakened their strength to protect the territory they occupied.
It's important to understand that once you cut yourself from a high level of strength, your power will stagnate forever, and you will never be able to advance any further.
Ye Xuan walked toward the place he remembered, a star tower with a strong magical style.
The buildings in the territory have already been explored by players, and those that cannot be entered have been marked.
The Star Tower is one of them.
Right now, many players are watching a young man who has reached level 25 conquer the tower.
"What treasures do you think are inside? I see so many powerful people coming to challenge us every day."
"I don't know, but all the top-tier guilds and several powerful families have come."
"They can't even get through the door every day, what are they thinking?"
Ye Xuan had changed his clothes, and no player in the crowd recognized him.
Not just anyone can enter this Star Tower. The Grand Magus has extremely high standards and looks down on ordinary people.
If I remember correctly, the Archmage will only meet players with elemental talents, and their level cannot be lower than A.
Furthermore, level 25 requires a minimum of 6 spell power and at least level 3 elemental comprehension.
The player we're challenging now, although his talent is A-level, is a physical damage dealer.
Even if you reach level 50, you can forget about entering the Star Tower.
As expected, no matter how much energy they gathered, they couldn't break through the barrier at the gate.
Peng!
Not only that, he was also thrown away by the enormous rebound force.
"Damn, what kind of crappy place is this? I'm level 25 and still can't get in!"
He picked up the longsword that had fallen to the ground and returned to his group, grumbling as he went.
Ye Xuan observed that this group of people seemed to possess some strength.
The group consisted of three men and two women, all of whom were wearing outfits sold by Juyuanlou.
"According to the expert team's analysis, this place should have limitations on talent and strength."
"The attribute threshold they researched last time was between 4 and 8. After equipping the suit, we have met this requirement."
"But all of you physics majors failed the challenge just now, so it seems the talent limitation lies with other majors."
"I'm an elementalist. If I also fail the challenge later, I'll have to report to my superiors and temporarily abandon this tower."
"The talents in other departments are too rare; it's not worth wasting any more time here."
Hearing all this, Ye Xuan could only marvel at the power of numbers.
Their analysis of the Star Tower is basically close to the truth, except for one mistake.
Although the Archmage himself has many pieces of equipment for enhancement, he has always advocated that one's own attributes and talents are fundamental.
Therefore, attributes stacked up with equipment are simply not worth his attention.
If you go into the challenge wearing the equipment, the magic barrier will detect your equipment bonuses and then increase the difficulty accordingly.
Only players with base stats of 6 or higher can enter the Star Tower to meet the Grand Mage.
Moreover, the Archmage's main approach is to go with the flow, and he will only meet 5 players individually.
Once this quota is filled, unless you are stronger than a Grand Magus, no one can enter the Star Tower.
As expected, this elemental player was also forced back by the barrier.
The other players who were watching the spectacle were somewhat disappointed; it had been so long, and not a single one of them had managed to get in.
"Hey, look, someone else went there!"
"This guy's obviously just there for the fun of it. Which faction doesn't come in groups? Nobody goes to challenge others on their own."
"Yeah, I bet he hasn't even figured out the rules yet."
This person was Ye Xuan, the Great Magus, who had a peculiar quirk.
Once the challenge begins, it must continue.
Once no one challenges him, he will close the challenge portal and go to sleep.
So when he saw that no one else was going to challenge him, he quickly came out.
If we don't go now, we'll have to wait until tomorrow.
The young man who had previously held the sword looked at the unremarkable Ye Xuan with some disdain.
Even he failed the challenge, so this guy, who's obviously just an ordinary player, still dares to join in the fun.
"Let's go, let's keep leveling up."
As he was saying this, he prepared to walk outside, but found that his teammates were not moving.
Puzzled, he followed the gaze and saw Ye Xuan walk into the Star Tower with ease, as if he were returning home.
The magical barrier that had knocked them away one by one seemed to have never existed.
"Holy crap, he's inside!"
The surrounding players erupted in noise; they had been waiting for so many days.
I have witnessed countless forces come to challenge me, and without exception, they have all failed.
As a result, a nobody who was taking the challenge for the first time went straight in.
They weren't just casual spectators; they started sending private messages to their respective factions.
It is a common understanding that such buildings, which are inaccessible to ordinary people, often present amazing opportunities.
After Ye Xuan entered, he was immediately teleported to a study, a room that was surprisingly large.
The view seemed endless, with huge bookshelves stretching as far as the eye could see.
"I never expected that the human race on Earth would have a prodigy like you. You've made me think a little more highly of you."
A weathered voice rang out from the right. Ye Xuan walked around the bookshelf and saw an old man with white hair.
This must be the great mage; his appearance perfectly matches the characteristics of the older generation of elemental warriors.
The archmage sat at a desk with a crystal ball on it.
At this moment, Ye Xuan's attribute information was being reflected above the crystal ball. Although it wasn't 100% accurate, it was quite close.
"Their attack power and magic power are both over 30."
The Archmage was quite surprised by the information in the crystal ball, because it meant that Ye Xuan likely possessed two talents.
It is still an extremely perfect physics department and an elemental department.
"To achieve a fundamental leap in this wretched place, you're quite lucky."
The crystal ball's abilities were almost on par with the Mechanical Heart, and it thoroughly analyzed Ye Xuan's basic situation.
"Very well, I'm satisfied. Then accept my mantle."
"Come here, I'll change your profession for you first."
Before Ye Xuan could even say a word, the Grand Magus had already made all the arrangements for him.
"Um, no need, senior. I already have a job."
