"Lin Han!"
"Don't take Gao Chong's nonsense to heart!"
"Don't I still have a brother? As long as I have food, you'll never go hungry!"
After Gao Chong and his group left, Wang Qiang puffed out his chest and assured Lin Han.
"Just a bunch of yapping dogs!"
"I wouldn't take it to heart!"
Lin Han replied with a smile.
At this moment,
As the last student walked out of the magic circle,
Class Six's awakening ceremony concluded.
Smoothing her wind-blown hair, Yang Xuewei smiled and approached the Class Six students.
"Students!"
"The awakening ceremony is over. Congratulations to everyone on completing graduation and embarking on the path of Professionals!"
"Those who awakened a life-skill profession can now integrate into society!"
"As for combat and support professions, I've emphasized it many times: you can go to the novice zone to level up independently!"
"Seven days from now, everyone will gather at the city center plaza. There, the university Entrance Examination will be held for various professional universities and factions to recruit!"
"Please remember, the strength of your profession is only a part of life. A wonderful life is created by yourselves!"
As her words fell,
The students of Class Six had varied expressions.
No matter in what world, people's joys and sorrows are always distinct.
The combat and support Professionals cheered joyfully.
The life-skill Professionals, however, looked dejected and left the school gate to go home.
Lin Han's parents' professions were not particularly good; his father was a chef and his mother a blacksmith. Even on the day of his awakening, they didn't have time to attend.
Therefore,
Lin Han and Wang Qiang parted ways at the school gate... Lin Han's home was in Huiyue City's East District.
It was the oldest district in Huiyue City, with the most life-skill Professionals.
This area was congested, with old infrastructure and chaotic management.
It was commonly known as the slum!
...Jianghe Community, Building 4, Unit 504, a cramped two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment.
Lin Han originally thought the house would be empty.
But unexpectedly,
As soon as he opened the door,
He smelled the aroma of food.
"Lin Han is back?"
"Today is your awakening day, so the boss let us off an hour early to celebrate your awakened profession!"
The kitchen door opened.
A simply dressed, gentle-faced woman in her thirties, carrying a bowl of rice, walked out.
She was 163 cm tall, with dark and lustrous hair, and a healthy, dark complexion.
However, her hands were calloused,
Evidently from years of arduous work.
It was Lin Han's blacksmith mother, Shen Mei.
"It smells so good!"
"Dad really showed off his cooking skills today!"
Lin Han entered, changed his shoes,
Immediately picked up a piece of meat from the dining table and ate it, then threw his backpack on the sofa and headed towards the kitchen.
"Oh, you child, wash your hands before eating! You've graduated high school, and you're still so clumsy!"
Shen Mei chided him.
"Got it, Mom!"
Entering the kitchen, Lin Han saw his father, Lin Zhongtian, stir-frying dishes.
His spatula flew continuously, his face was thin, a pair of brown glasses rested on his nose, a few distinct wrinkles lined his forehead, and some white hairs were mixed in with his dark hair.
"Lin Han, your homeroom teacher has already informed us of your awakening result!"
"Although it's not the Warrior you dreamed of!"
"But a Life Priest is at least a magic-based support profession!"
"Don't be disheartened!"
Lin Zhongtian turned to look at Lin Han while stir-frying.
"Oh, don't worry, Dad, my mental resilience is not ordinary!"
"Besides!"
"My Life Priest can still level up to 10!"
"Materials from a low-level monster are enough for half a month's salary for you and Mom. I won't be discouraged!"
Lin Han did not intend to tell his parents the truth about his situation.
After all,
In this world, his ability to amplify by ten thousand times was simply too outrageous.
If it drew attention,
His parents, who knew about it, could be in great danger.
"Hmm!"
"Wash your hands and eat!"
As the last dish was poured into a bowl, Lin Zhongtian called Lin Han to eat.
The meal today was very rich. Because of Lin Han's graduation, various meat dishes filled the table.
Lin Han ate to his heart's content.
After dinner,
Lin Han was about to return to his room to further familiarize himself with his enhanced attributes.
"Lin Han, wait a moment!"
"Your mother and I have a gift for you!"
At this moment,
Lin Zhongtian called out to Lin Han.
???
Lin Han was a bit confused.
His family's financial situation wasn't very good, and most of his parents' salaries were used for daily expenses.
How could they have prepared a gift for him?
He saw
Lin Zhongtian walk towards the secondary bedroom in their home.
Not long after,
He emerged carrying a long, dusty, rather old box.
"Dad... this is?"
It was the first time Lin Han knew his family had such an item.
"This is something that has been passed down through your Lin family ancestors!"
Taking out a rag, Shen Mei wiped the dust off the long box and said.
"Ancestral?"
Lin Han was greatly surprised.
"Yes!"
Lin Zhongtian opened the long box.
He saw
Two items neatly placed inside: a brown-blue staff and a white mage robe.
"Hiss!"
"Mage equipment!"
Lin Han gasped.
He had no idea
His family had such good things.
"They are Gold Rank mage equipment!"
"Son, don't look at how poor our family is now, but if you count back ten generations or so, before our decline, we were a Gold Rank family in Huiyue City!"
"These things are over a hundred years old!"
"But our ancestors never had a suitable Professional, so they were left unused!"
"Now that you've become a magic-user, they are perfectly suitable!"
Lin Zhongtian handed the long box to Lin Han.
Upon hearing this,
Lin Han took the robe and staff in his hands.
He was incredibly excited.
One must know!
The cultivation system for Professionals in this world
Is divided into nine realms: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, King, Supreme, Saint, and God Rank.
Every 10 levels constitutes a stage (one advancement).
And a Gold Rank mage set was already considered mid-tier equipment, providing certain bonuses.
In the market,
It was worth over a million star dragon coins. This was truly an unexpected surprise!
"Thank you, Dad and Mom!"
Lin Han bowed.
His parents entrusting him with such valuable ancestral equipment
His gratitude was simply inexpressible.
"Why are you thanking us, child!"
"Take them with you to level up tomorrow!"
"Although they're not a full set yet, they're enough to speed up your level progression!"
Shen Mei gently ruffled Lin Han's head and said.
"Okay!"
Nodding,
Lin Han impatiently entered his room... As soon as he entered the room,
Lin Han put on the mage robe and held the staff in his hand.
After awakening,
Lin Han was already able to wield a bit of magic power.
This was the benefit of becoming a Professional.
No complicated cultivation was needed; simply leveling up would grant some corresponding professional abilities.
As magic power was injected into the two pieces of equipment,
Their information appeared in Lin Han's mind.
[Name]: Magic Sanctuary
[Location]: Robe
[Rank]: Gold Rank
[Description]: Wearing it grants a certain amount of magic shield. The shield can replace health to resist damage. The shield's upper limit is 5% of one's own health.
[Name]: Magic Sanctuary
[Location]: Staff
[Rank]: Gold Rank
[Description]: Comes with dual Earth and Lightning element effects, causing an additional 8% Earth damage, with a 10% chance to generate an additional Lightning attribute damage!
!!!
"Both offense and defense!"
After reading the equipment attributes, Lin Han took a deep breath.
In the equipment description,
The highest bonuses were only 10%.
But that was for others.
As for himself!
"System! Amplify these two pieces of equipment for me!"
A smile appeared in Lin Han's eyes.
[Ding!]
[The two pieces of equipment have been successfully amplified ten thousand times. Please check them as soon as possible, Host.]
Lin Han injected magic power again.
[Name]: Law God's Principle
[Location]: Robe
[Rank]: Legendary-grade
[Description]: Wearing it grants a certain amount of magic shield. The shield can replace health to resist damage. The shield's upper limit is 100% of one's own health.
[Name]: Law God's Principle
[Location]: Staff
[Rank]: Legendary-grade
[Description]: Comes with dual Earth and Lightning element effects. 100% chance to generate an additional Earth or Lightning skill damage!
Note: Due to the equipment's upper limit, the maximum amplification is 100%.
!!!
"Legendary-grade equipment!"
"And all 100%!"
"Haha!"
"I'm rich!"
At this moment,
Lin Han was very happy.
Generally speaking,
Legendary-grade equipment
Could only be possessed by level 70 Supreme Rank powerhouses.
Extremely rare.
Moreover,
His current health was already a massive 1.2 million, and the robe's shield value was equivalent to his health.
In other words,
For a short time, in the future,
Any entity below the Diamond Rank
Would simply be unable to break his defense.
Although he was a mage, he could completely engage in melee combat with his staff.
Isn't this
The style of a close-combat mage like Gandalf?!
