"Oh, oh!" Mo Fan secretly rejoiced in his heart.
It turned out that lightning mages were in such high demand in the Hunter Alliance.
No wonder, there might not be one lightning mage in a thousand people, and the damage of lightning spells was no less than that of fire spells. They also had the effect of paralyzing and causing spasms in muscles, which suppressed demons. With a lightning mage, the difficulty of the entire hunter team's demon hunt could be greatly reduced!
Very good, he had successfully found a way to make money and improve his combat skills!
"However, to avoid exposing my innate dual-element ability, I should do some disguise. On one hand, to prevent people from recognizing me, and on the other, to look more mature. I'm still a high school student!" Mo Fan made up his mind and quickly found a black crayon.
Disguising oneself was not difficult. Mo Fan just needed to darken his face and wear a long gray hooded cloak.
With the hood on, revealing a face with distinct black features, his entire demeanor changed completely!
Finding the city demon hunting team, he saw the long queue and couldn't help but sigh.
Damn, this is like signing up for a civil service exam!
He had to queue up, first for an interview, then for a second round, and it seemed the interviewer was a rather sweet-looking girl.
...
"What kind of people are these? Do these fools think our city demon hunting team is a leisurely job where we just sit around waiting for a government salary!" A burly man with a bandaged head said behind the recruitment desk.
"Captain, don't worry. With so many people applying, there will definitely be some good ones!" A man with a fashionable beret but a round head said.
"Actually, this one is quite good. He has mastered the second-level Wind Track Flash Step, which can effectively track and lead demons." A frail-looking girl standing behind the burly man said.
"I can handle the wind element myself, why do we need someone else?" A wind mage with a shirt and long hair, looking very graceful, said.
"These are just considerations, but I haven't seen anyone who satisfies me yet." The bandaged burly man said.
"Then how about Ah Cheng? This guy is quite smart. Actually, the truly powerful mages usually have their own fixed teams and rarely wander around here. In my opinion, Ah Cheng is the best choice. His fire element can still provide enough power to demons." The graceful long-haired wind mage said.
The captain helplessly shook his head and said, "It seems we have no choice."
Just as he finished speaking, the sweet-looking recruitment girl hurriedly ran over and bumped into the captain's chest.
"Ah... ah, sorry." The recruitment girl's face turned bright red, and she hurriedly said, "A... a lightning mage has applied to join our city demon hunting team."
"Really??" The burly captain immediately perked up, his eyes shining as he looked into the long queue.
The other team members' eyes also sparkled.
A lightning mage!
Their city demon hunting team was indeed more popular than other teams, but this didn't mean that lightning mages were willing to join.
Lightning mages had always been the top guests of all hunter teams, and even some elite teams didn't mind bringing a rookie lightning mage.
After all, rookies could be cultivated, but lightning mages, who were less than one in a thousand, were hard to find even with a lantern!
Too many lightning mages were already reserved and easily absorbed by large families and organizations. The probability of finding a wild lightning mage was extremely low!
"Is that the one?" The burly captain couldn't sit still and walked out from the back.
"Y... yes, Captain, do you want to interview him personally?" The recruitment girl stammered.
"Interview... what interview?" The burly captain turned around with a puzzled look.
The recruitment girl and the other team members were equally puzzled. If the captain wasn't going to interview him, why did he go over there?
At this moment, the captain had already walked to the recruitment desk. He glanced at Mo Fan, whose face was slightly darkened, and asked, "Are you a lightning mage?"
Mo Fan looked at the burly man and slowly raised his hand. Instantly, an electric arc shot through his fingers, transforming into a crackling little sprite that landed on the table, burning a small hole in it.
The burly captain's face lit up with joy.
"You... you don't need to queue anymore, we've found our person!" The burly captain, being quite domineering, shouted at the long queue.
This shout made the queue unhappy.
"Damn, why? We haven't even been interviewed yet?"
"That's right, I'm very strong. I can complete a spell in less than 4 seconds."
"Are you kidding? There's even a backdoor for recruiting mages. The world is really unfair. I don't want to stay in the wilderness!"
A chorus of complaints arose, showing that they had high hopes for this position.
"If any of you are lightning mages, I'll make an exception and accept you." The burly captain, being unreasonable, shouted again.
Everyone was stunned.
"Damn, a lightning mage??"
"Are you kidding? A lightning mage is coming to snatch our jobs. This is unbearable!"
"Fine, a lightning mage, no need for an interview, I'll look elsewhere."
Upon hearing about the lightning mage, everyone looked like defeated roosters, their heads hanging low.
There was no way around it; as the king of elements, lightning mages had unparalleled advantages, and these people had no interest in competing.
Mo Fan turned around and saw the long queue disperse, feeling secretly surprised.
He knew that lightning mages were highly valued in school, but he didn't expect that in this magical society, they would have such overwhelming power.
Thinking about it, it made sense. When facing that spectral wolf, the lightning seal was indeed the decisive factor, not only injuring the demon but also paralyzing its muscles!
"Come, come, come, little brother, welcome to our city demon hunting team. Let me introduce our team members... oh, oh, let me introduce myself first. I'm Captain Xu Dahuang, a fire mage." The burly captain introduced himself.
"Hello, I'm Xiao Ke, a water mage." The frail-looking girl smiled sweetly.
"Li Wenjie, wind element." The handsome young man flicked his graceful long hair and said with a satisfied look.
"Call me Fat Shi, I'm an earth mage." The man with the beret and a round face smiled warmly.
Mo Fan looked at these mages who were clearly a few years older than him and hesitated before introducing himself, "I'm Fan Mo."
"Fan Mo, I saw your blank resume, which means you're a rookie who hasn't even seen a demon yet. So let me warn you, don't think you're anything special just because you're a lightning mage. Be careful with your life!" A somewhat attractive woman said.
Mo Fan looked at this woman and felt she was somewhat familiar.
"Oh, this is our deputy captain, Cai Tang, an ice mage!" Captain Xu Dahuang said with a smile.
Cai Tang??
Damn, it's this woman!!
Mo Fan finally recognized her. Cai Tang was also related to the Mu family and always acted like a princess, making her very hard to get along with!
Damn, why do I keep running into people from the Mu family wherever I go? I should try to get into a good magic university and leave this city as soon as possible.
(Tonight at 7:30 PM, on Qidian Chinese Network, Three Rivers Interview, I'll be waiting for you. Come on over!)
