Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Despair! Heaven-Defying Output in the Millions!
"Come~hit~me~you~idiot~!"
The Goblin Giant had an enormous size, standing seven or eight meters tall, even taller than Lin Yi’s Molten Fire Demon.
The moment it appeared, it opened its big mouth and started taunting.
Its right hand even made a friendly gesture universally understood across Blue Star and Earth.
And with that expression, it really deserved a beating!
Even Lin Yi wanted to complain about which genius designed this level!
Actually, Lin Yi was still mistaken.
All the monsters in this level were based on actual monsters in some real-life levels.
And the real Goblin Giant was just as irritating.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
The sound of the wind howled around Lin Yi.
The next moment, a green tornado formed above the Goblin Giant’s head.
The fierce winds shaped into needle-like sharp spikes, continuously assaulting the Goblin Giant’s skin and flesh.
Wind Attribute Tier 4 Magic: Violent Wind Vortex!
The reason Lin Yi chose this spell was simply because it was the single highest damage magic in extended combat scenarios.
[Violent Wind Vortex]
[Type: Active Skill]
[Rank: Tier 4]
[System: Storm Attribute]
[Cost: 4000 Mana Value]
[Chanting Time: 3.5 seconds]
[Cooldown: None]
[Effect: Channel the wind elements to form a massive tornado vortex, attacking all targets within range, dealing 5 instances of Wind Attribute damage per second to all targets.]
[Once the Violent Wind Vortex attacks a target, it will remain stationary and continue spinning, dealing continuous damage, with a maximum duration of 30 minutes.]
[Note: Gale! Hear my command!]
All Tier 4 spells specialized in the Elemental System.
Are area spells.
This is the characteristic of the Mage class.
The Wind Attribute is no exception.
However, the damage of this spell inherits the usual tradition of the Wind Attribute.
-125!
-136!
-207 (Critical Strike)!
The damage numbers are merely in the hundreds!
Completely incomparable with the Fire Attribute’s damage values, which easily reach thousands or even tens of thousands!
Like scratching an itch!
But scratching very rapidly!
And very persistently!
Once a Storm Vortex is summoned, it lasts for a full half hour before dissipating.
For a cumbersome monster like the Goblin Giant that only knows how to stand still and taunt insultingly, it can take the full 30 minutes of damage!
Utilizing this mechanic, Lin Yi continuously summoned Storm Vortexes.
Five, ten, twenty...
The number of Storm Vortexes enveloping the Goblin Giant increased at a terrifying speed!
Dozens of Storm Vortexes simultaneously bombarded the Goblin Giant.
The frequency of damage per second was frighteningly high!
Storm Vortexes can manage 100 attacks per second!
The high rate of continuous attacks.
Made the Goblin Giant, who had been taunting furiously, tremble in fear, and its throat sounded like a jammed tape, unable to make any sound!
Its enormous body also trembled violently, looking both ridiculous and amusing.
This scene left countless people in the examination center stunned.
Qi Guoguang even stood up.
Staring at Lin Yi on the screen, his brain was working frantically!
He still couldn’t forget everything he had witnessed over ten days ago when he aided Canglan City.
Was it him?
It was him!
Yes, right...?
No!
Yes, yes.
No, no!
Qi Guoguang’s mind was constantly affirming and denying.
The same dual-class Mage of Fire and Wind.
The same young Mage.
But one with an incredibly terrifying control of magic who could simultaneously cast Tier Seven Fire and Tier Seven Wind magic.
The one before us is merely level 42, just freshly dual-classed.
Even with a mysterious talent boost.
Could he achieve such a feat?
The odds were too small!
However, his Mage intuition kept reminding Qi Guoguang.
Everything was connected!
Even the events in the City of Fading Light, Feilieka, were related to this young man!
Yet, rationally, all his speculations were dismissed!
"Mr. Qi, what’s wrong?" Li Yuanjing, though amazed that Lin Yi could also cast Wind Attribute magic,
still inquired, despite being a profession of the Archer system.
He did not understand Mage magic very well.
Qi Guoguang’s thoughts were interrupted by Li Yuanjing, so in the end, he could only shake his head: "It’s nothing."
"I just had some... not very realistic guesses..."
Li Yuanjing wanted to ask something more.
But as the third round began, the leaderboard in the upper right of the big screen also refreshed after a brief delay.
[Current Round: Third Round]
[Live Leaderboard:]
[NO.1, Candidate Lin Yi, Total Output: 53,696!]
[NO.2, Candidate Qi Xia Ying, Total Output: 11,833!]
[NO.3, Candidate Li Zerui, Total Output: 10,236!]
[NO.4, Candidate Ding Chuchu, Total Output: 9,691!]
[NO.5, Candidate Fang Ming, Total Output: 9,527!]
Because this round focused on output values, the leaderboard updated in real-time.
But what remained unchanged was that Lin Yi continued to lead significantly.
A gap almost five times wider than the second place!
And if someone observed carefully, they would notice this gap was gradually widening.
As the number of Storm Vortexes increased, Lin Yi’s DPS (Damage Per Second) was also rising!
The second after seeing the leaderboard.
Countless people exclaimed in surprise again.
"It’s him again!!"
"He’s still first!!"
"Such high damage, what spell is he using?!"
"This kid is actually a dual-class Mage!"
"He’s too overpowered, how did he get so many skill points?!"
"But why isn’t he using Fire Attribute magic? Isn’t the Fire Attribute’s damage higher?"
"Fire Attribute consumes more mana, right? In tests focusing on endurance, surely cost-effectiveness is prioritized."
In the examination level.
It had been over ten minutes since the start of the third round.
Li Zerui wanted to vomit blood.
In the second round, aimed at burst output, he narrowly lost to Qi Xia Ying, and he accepted that.
But in this endurance-testing round, he was determined to win!
Because the legendary class of Metallic Super-modified Human had unlimited ammunition!
Reloading only took some time.
As long as he managed the rhythm well.
During this 30 minutes, he could ensure continuous output at any time and place.
Completely uninterrupted!
And for the other participants, in the latter part of this test, fatigue and interrupted output would inevitably occur.
Based on the score of this round, he was confident of getting to the top of the ranking.
Moreover, that Lin Yi, who ranked first in the previous two rounds, had powerful burst output, he knew.
So initially, seeing Lin Yi at the top of the leaderboard.
Even if he was five times ahead, he wasn’t very worried.
Because in his view, Lin Yi was just fierce for this moment.
Soon enough, he would burn out!
Who would have thought—
On the current leaderboard.
He was in second place.
With over a hundred thousand output.
Surpassing third place Qi Xia Ying by almost twenty thousand output!
And the first place?
The output had now surpassed a million!
Too freakin’ outrageous!
Even if Lin Yi stopped outputting now.
Li Zerui admitted he couldn’t catch up with his output.
But just as he fell into despair the next second.
He suddenly saw on the floating leaderboard.
The total output numbers for first place Lin Yi suddenly flashed, then reset from the million damage mark back to zero!
