Chapter 361: 009. There is a treasure chest ahead, so, next, a jumping slash is very useful.

Roots snaked their way around, ensconcing themselves in Li Aozi’s palm, gently piercing between the muscles from both sides without causing any feelings of coarseness or pain. Instead, Li Aozi felt an indescribable comfort flood through him, as if he were enjoying a watermelon in the cool breeze of an air conditioner in midsummer. His entire body felt refreshed.

The roots rapidly spread throughout his physiological system, intertwining with his blood vessels and nerves, integrating seamlessly with his bodily organs, cells, and blood without any signs of rejection. In an instant, a complete human ecological system was established.

Li Aozi’s senses underwent swift changes as he became aware of more vivid sensations.

The ferocity of fire, the arrogance of frost, the oppressiveness of the atmosphere, the restlessness of thunder, the solidity of earth, the cruelty of metal.

These commonly experienced elements now undulated like whispering waves, each holding their own emotions and fluctuations.

Rather than say the roots were adapting him to magic, it would be more appropriate to say that nature was bestowing its blessing through this method.

Snap.

The roots broke off crisply, and Li Aozi, lifting his hand, saw clearly the elemental energies flowing through his veins by the faint light in his eyes.

(New) Professional Talent: Elemental Resonance—Among all magic, elemental magic is one of the most basic and ancient existences; we live surrounded by the elements of the universe. However, with the advancement of productivity and the development of civilization, magicians’ interpretation of elements has gradually evolved.

As an [Elemental Sorcerer], your elemental affinity far exceeds that of mortals. Your spells primarily rely on classical elemental combinations and resonances to burst forth, and occasionally, you can bestow personification and spirituality upon elements, making them manifest to assist in combat.

You will enjoy the following occupational traits:

I. When casting elemental magic, the elements will actively obey your will, automatically lock onto enemies and targets without the need for chanting spells;

II. You have a 70% chance of not being automatically targeted by elemental magic, manual targeting is not affected by this;

[Hierarchy]: Gamma Rank

——————————

"Phew, not bad, adding 5 points of [Intelligence] every 5 levels. Now I can raise the secondary profession to lv.60, this way, my [Intelligence] will reach 24+60=84 points."

It’s a pity that Li Aozi doesn’t have a growth enhancement specialty like "Perpetual Love Hunting" or else he could directly stack [Intelligence] up to Gamma rank.

"This body’s foundation is really not bad. Now if I return to Azure Star and inherit the main body’s arcane energy and specialties, no matter how many from Gamma rank come, just as many will die."

Li Aozi praised with a click of his tongue.

In fact, Leo’s physical aptitude is quite ordinary, but for him, it can produce much stronger effects.

The transformation is complete, the goal has been achieved, and as for the two Heirloom Masterpieces - keeping them in Sofia’s garden is even safer than in a bank. Right now he doesn’t need them, he can deposit them there.

—If he were to place the weapons in the Biological Pool or in Yawen’s hands, Li Aozi would truly fear that some "Plunder" would casually swipe them.

He’s not a player. Players have the dilemma of weapon binding preventing drops, but Li Aozi does not,

Thinking this way, Li Aozi suddenly discovered a business opportunity.

Is there anything more profitable than smuggling? The answer is, smuggling contraband!

Arms, drugs, materials, high-tech products, high-value targets, smuggling people.

The interests involved in these things are so immense, if one went through legal processes to take them out of a country, customs would merely admire you with a nod and say ’You’re doing quite well, lad, living more and more boldly,’ and then you’d still have to pay taxes when you reach your destination.

How to store these things has always been a problem.

"It seems I could, for now, dump some contraband here at Sofia’s - after all, she won’t take initiative to attack, and out of respect, she won’t destroy my goods either."

As long as it doesn’t interfere with the normal state of the garden, Sofia won’t take action, so this place can perfectly serve as a secret storage.

"Moreover, based on Baizhu Star’s protection policy, they won’t intervene massively in a civilization’s relics. Even if it’s exposed, in such a vast relic, I’ll have enough time to move and escape."

Li Aozi always remembers how he started his fortune.

Life is all about: smooth, winning, cool, numbing, laying back, and thriving!
