Chapter 10 Five Fireballs and a Rabble

After the meditation pattern was outlined, a dazzling, complex polyhedron spun ceaselessly in Chen Luo's mind.

As the polyhedron rotated, a cool energy continuously flowed into Chen Luo's mind from the void.

[Entering meditation state, restores 8 mana every 5 seconds, maximum duration is Spirit x30 seconds]

In the darkness, the Wolf King watched Chen Luo in the safe zone with an uncertain expression. It had clearly sensed the man's spiritual fluctuations weakening.

A mage's power was limited; the Wolf King understood this deeply, and these weak novice mages were even more so.

The man before it, capable of casting dozens of fireballs consecutively, was already a rare anomaly. However, in the face of thousands of wolves under its command, this man's ultimate fate was to be overwhelmed.

But at this moment, things seemed to have taken an unexpected turn. As Chen Luo's words fell, his declining spiritual aura was continuously recovering!

[Mana]: 18-26-34-..274-..-550

The meditation technique, having reached rank C, could restore 96 mana per minute. In just six minutes, Chen Luo's mana was fully replenished!

A faint blue light, representing mana, flickered in Chen Luo's eyes:

"Now, let's continue enjoying the fireworks!"

Mana condensed, fire flashed, and a brand new fireball hurtled towards the wolf pack!

"Roar!" An angry wolf howl echoed from the darkness. The Wolf King hadn't expected this human to possess such a trick.

However, the Wolf King was not worried. The loss of a mere few dozen night wolves was but a drop in the ocean for the vast wolf pack.

As long as the safe zone's light continued to shrink until its final collapse, its fangs would surely sever the neck of the man before it!!

Large fireballs rained down on the wolf pack like meteors.

Each falling fireball signified the death of a night wolf.

After dozens of fireballs, Chen Luo once again used his meditation technique to replenish his depleted mana.

Under the stunned gazes of those behind him, Chen Luo's fireworks display continued for over a hundred fireballs before finally ceasing.

And Chen Luo had received the notification he had been waiting for!

[Proficiency met, congratulations on your skill "Fireball" advancing from rank E to rank D]

[Fireball Rank D (0/1000)]:

Active effect: Consumes 30 mana, deals Spirit x30 damage, maximum attack range 40 meters, cooldown 20 seconds, casting time 6 seconds.

——————

A sharp glint flashed in Chen Luo's eyes. The Fireball skill, having leveled up to rank D, finally displayed a new effect.

His will manipulated spiritual power, and mana, formed from spiritual power, flowed through complex spell trajectories.

In an instant, five points of starlight ignited before Chen Luo!

"Now, the fireworks are over!"

Chen Luo flicked his fingers, and the five points of starlight instantly transformed into five massive fireballs that flew towards the wolf pack!

Boom boom boom!!!!

Explosions several times more violent than before erupted from the wolf pack, the violent gust of wind scattering the dancing snowflakes.

But Chen Luo turned directly, without looking back at the explosion. What he looked at were the stunned faces of the crowd, illuminated by the firelight.

The previously dejected crowd from the exhibition hall had, at some point, gathered outside.

Under the lights, bathed in the firelight, everyone was deeply shaken by the terrifying fireworks display.

It was an absolute manifestation of individual power, wielding the extraordinary.

Under the blast's gale, scattering snowflakes, Chen Luo, dressed as Rex Lapis, truly appeared like a divine being in the eyes of the crowd.

Chen Luo's eyes, hidden beneath his sunglasses, contentedly observed the stunned expressions of the crowd.

"This way, when I ask for command later, there should be fewer problems."

"After all, power allows everyone to speak to me peacefully."

However, looking at Hu Tao beside him, who was still babbling incoherently, Chen Luo frowned slightly.

Could such a cute young boy (?) have been babbling for so long just now?

Chen Luo casually tapped the other's head. Hu Tao instinctively shielded her head, crouching on the ground with her arms covering it, looking at Chen Luo in bewilderment.

This appearance made one want to tease her.

Just as Chen Luo found the actions of his savior somewhat amusing and exasperating,

A chubby figure, moving at a speed utterly inconsistent with his weight, rushed out from the crowd and tightly grabbed Chen Luo's leg!

Chen Luo looked down to see a little fatty, crying with a runny nose and tears streaming down his face, saying:

"Big Brother!! My name is Zhang Wei! Take me to soar and show off! You are the light in this apocalypse! Take me as your subordinate, Boss! I want to shoot fireballs!!!"

Little Fatty Zhang Wei recalled his own fireballs, which required half a day of rest after just one shot, and how he couldn't even kill a single night wolf after several attempts.

Then, thinking of Chen Luo's terrifying performance of firing a hundred consecutive shots, each one fatal, he was completely defeated.

At the entrance of the safe zone, the scarred man and others looked on dumbfounded as the little fatty rushed forward to pledge allegiance.

The scarred man instinctively said, "Fatty, didn't you just say that everyone here is civilized and it's inconvenient to acknowledge strangers as bosses?"

The crying fatty heard this and cried even louder, "Stranger?! How can Boss be a stranger?! I only regret not meeting Boss sooner!"

Saying this, he moved towards Chen Luo with a runny nose and tears, but the next moment, Zhang Wei's chubby face collided with a cold, hard rod-like object.

Zhang Wei froze, looked up, and saw Chen Luo holding a prop long spear, blocking his approaching fleshy face.

Chen Luo looked at the crying, somewhat comical little fatty and shook his head helplessly, "Little brother, I accept. But go to the side for now, I have something to say."

Upon hearing Chen Luo's words, the fatty nimbly rolled to the side, "Okay! Boss! I'll immediately roll to the side!"

Chen Luo looked at the playful fatty, feeling a mix of amusement and exasperation, but thinking of his previous plan, his expression turned serious as he looked at the crowd beside him:

"The fireworks I just set off had only one purpose!"

"I want to become the de facto controller of the entire exhibition hall's safe zone!"

As soon as Chen Luo finished speaking, the entire exhibition hall fell into an unusual silence, everyone looking at Chen Luo in a daze.

But then, as the crowd finally understood Chen Luo's intention, they erupted into a cacophony.

"On what grounds?! This greenhorn wants to manage all of us?!"

"Young man! Don't get carried away! Although these wolves look formidable, once the authorities react! Killing them will be very easy!"

"Listen to Uncle's advice! This water is too deep, you can't handle it!"

"Handsome boy! I'm with you! But I'm lusting after your body! You have to pay with your flesh!"

"Or, maybe we should just listen to him first, his power just now was so terrifying..."

The crowd was incredibly chaotic. Some questioned, some were resentful, and some were terrified by the power Chen Luo had just displayed.

There were even some bold young ladies, wearing revealing clothes, who wanted to interact with Chen Luo.

The expected commotion did not move Chen Luo. Just as he was about to intimidate the crowd,

A clear but stern voice rang out from within the crowd:

"Enough! If you don't want to die, shut up!"
