Chapter 3: First Meditation! Elemental Particles!
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
As for the ice, holy light, darkness, and lightning elements, they were all rare elements.
The most precious element was the holy light element because the holy light element had a powerful healing ability.
If a person who was about to die could receive the blessing of a holy light element expert, he could immediately extend his life by a few years.
Of course, the prerequisite was that he could get the help of a holy light-type powerhouse.
Moreover, holy light-type elemental mages were almost one-in-ten-thousand.
As for darkness-type, lightning-type, and ice-type, these three types of elements were violent attack elements.
They were also not weaker than the holy light-type but, because of the demand, the holy light-type was the most powerful.
After receiving this information, Caruso finally realized how terrifying his lucky draw was.
An ordinary person could become a respected mage as long as they were favored by one element.
But he alone was favored by nine elements and became a full-time mage1!
Moreover, he could cultivate both magic and martial arts, use magic skills, and also use sword aura.
He was practically invincible in both close combat and long-range combat.
… After understanding so much, time passed quietly. Soon, more than an hour had passed.
During this one hour, no one appeared to be lazy at all.
Everyone’s eyes were flashing with anticipation as if they were about to become mages. They were extremely excited.
“Alright, that’s all the information about mages. Everyone, sit down and start meditating!”
Meditation.
The entrance test for mages.
If one could not even meditate, then it proved that it was impossible for one to become a mage.
And the so-called meditation was to find the elemental particles in the world.
Through meditation, after sensing the elemental particles, one could absorb these elemental particles and use magic skills.
After the village chief said this, all the youths sat on the ground.
Caruso sat cross-legged on the ground as well, listening quietly.
“Everyone, put down all your thoughts, cast aside all distracting thoughts, enter a meditative state, and sense the elemental particles nearby!”
The village chief looked at the children below with satisfaction.
After he finished speaking, the children closed their eyes one by one and began to listen to him.
Let’s talk about Caruso again.
After he sat on the ground, he quickly followed the village chief’s instructions and entered meditation.
The other children were still frowning at this moment and were still unable to enter the meditation world mentioned by the village chief.
After entering the meditation world, Caruso discovered that he was in the middle of a universe, and there was nothing in the dusky surroundings.
“Is this the meditation world?”
A few seconds later, after feeling that he had entered a completely new world, Caruso couldn’t help but ask himself a question.
“What is that?” In the next second, a few spots of red light suddenly rushed towards his body.
After seeing these spots of red light, Caruso frowned and pondered.
“Could it be that these are the so-called elemental particles? Red? Fire elements?”
Although Caruso knew nothing about this world, he was still considered a veteran geek who had read countless novels and played countless fantasy games.
Therefore, he quickly made a judgment.
After making the judgment, more than ten fire elemental particles gathered around his body like fairies. Each of them was extremely lively as if they were considering whether or not to enter his body.
A few seconds later, more than ten fire elemental particles merged into his body in the blink of an eye.
After sensing these light spots merging into his body, Caruso felt a wave of heat in his dantian1.
It was as if he was stuck with a warm baby.
“What the f*ck? Again?”
Not long after he felt the wave of heat, Caruso was suddenly stunned. He saw hundreds of fire elemental particles suddenly appear out of nowhere around him.
After seeing so many particles, he did not feel happy. Instead, he started to complain.
More than a dozen fire elemental particles had already made him a little hot. A few hundred, wouldn’t that burn him to death?
With this thought in mind, he almost completely resisted this scene.
However, his resistance was completely useless.
The hundreds of particles seemed to have found their home. In the blink of an eye, they merged into his body.
“Argh! It’s uncomfortable!”
After the hundreds of particles entered his body, Caruso could only describe it as uncomfortable.
At this moment, his body felt like it had been scalded by boiling water. It was so hot that he was irritated.
“Huh? Green particles?”
“Blue particles?”
“White particles?”
“Black particles?”
“Golden particles?”
“Yellow particles?”
“Why are there so many elemental particles rushing over?”
If Caruso had been looking forward to it before meditating, he would be terrified now!
When the red particles no longer appeared, the eight-colored particles rushed over one after another. In an instant, the gray world became incomparably resplendent, as if he was in a galaxy.
After these particles were fused, he also noticed that they were particles of the elements.
The white particles were light elements, the green particles were wood elements, the cyan particles were wind elements, the light-blue particles were water elements, the golden particles were thunder elements, and the red particles were fire elements.
The yellow particles were earth elements.
The black particles were black elements.
The silver particles were ice elements.
The fusion of the nine elements almost made Caruso know what torture was.
Fortunately, the last elements to enter his body were light elements and wood elements. One of these two elements was healing and the other was recovery.
Therefore, he was almost unable to hold on but he was forced to prolong his life.
After experiencing this event, Caruso couldn’t help but complain.
What he did not know was that when he meditated on the elements, all the children around him left the place.
The reason was simple. All the children did not meditate on any elements.
Only he meditated on elemental particles.
Compared to his pain, if the children knew about it, they would rather accept the pain that was ten times more intense than this.
This was because they had lost the qualification to become mages and could only become ordinary people for the rest of their lives.
Compared to the two, Caruso was simply trying to be a good-for-nothing.
Similarly, when Village Chief Cass saw Caruso entering meditation outside, he immediately noticed him.
Originally, Caruso entering meditation within a few seconds had already shocked him.
But now, after meditating for a full three hours, the village chief could no longer remain calm!
The first meditation was a test of talent.
Generally, those who were qualified to become mages, as long as they meditated for more than five minutes and sensed two or three elemental particles, would be considered qualified.
If they meditated for more than ten minutes and sensed around ten elemental particles, they would be considered geniuses.
A child who meditated for more than an hour would be considered a super genius. Normally, only the children of nobles would be able to accomplish such an achievement.
As for someone like Caruso who meditated for more than three hours on his first try, the village chief had never seen or heard of someone like him.
Even some peerless geniuses would only meditate for more than an hour.
But now that Caruso had meditated for three hours, how could the village chief not be shocked?
Regarding this, he quickly let the children leave, and then only Caruso was left in the entire courtyard.
Meanwhile, Cass had been quietly guarding him at the side. The longer he guarded him, the more excited old man Cass became.
This was simply like picking up a treasure!
He did not expect that there would be a peerless genius in this poor and remote place.
Of course, he did not know that Caruso had already fused nine elemental particles in a short period of time. If he knew, the village chief would probably faint on the spot!
