Chapter 55 - City Hunter’s Team

Oh, oh!, Mo Fan rejoiced covertly.

So it turned out that Lightning Mages were very popular within the Hunter’s Union!

They couldn’t be blamed, however. There was only one Lightning Mage per thousand people, and additionally, the Lightning spells’ power were not inferior to the Fire Element. Plus, it carried a paralysis effect. With a Lightning Mage suppressing the Magical Beasts, the speed it took for a squadron to circle Magical Beasts would be reduced by a large margin!

Good, he had found a method that would allow him to make money, as well as increase his combat prowess!

However, in order to not expose my innate double Element, I should still do a disguise. On one hand, it’s so people won’t recognize me. On the other hand, I would look more mature. I am still too much of a high schooler! After Mo Fan made his decision, he quickly found a black crayon.

Changing his appearance wasn’t hard. Mo Fan just needed to dye his face darker and then put on a long, gray hoodie.

As long as he put on the hoodie, and showed the distinct jawline of his face, his entire temperament would be entirely different!

He found the City Hunter’s Team and saw the long queue standing outside. He couldn’t help but sob a bit.

Shit, this even overtakes registration for the officer’s exams!

Let’s just line up. That’s all I can do. Let’s just do the interview first and then go past stage two of it. It seems like the interviewer is a sweet and beautiful woman.

“They’re all trash. Do these morons thinks we, the City Hunter’s Team, are a job where we just sit on our butts and eat the benefits of the state!?” a tall and sturdy man, who still had gauze wrapped around his head, snarled from behind the recruitment counter.

“Captain, don’t be anxious. There’s a lot of people applying, there will be a good one!” said another man who was wearing a fashionable flower cap.

“Actually, this one isn’t bad. He has mastered the second level of Wind Trail, Flash Steps. It can be used to track and lure Magical Beasts,” a delicate-looking girl said as she stood behind the sturdy and tall man.

“As long as we have me as the Wind Element, do we still need anyone else?” spoke up a Wind Mage with long hair, looking graceful in his white shirt.

“These are all just considerations. I still haven’t seen anyone I’m completely satisfied with yet,” the gauzed-up Captain said.

“In that case, how about Ah Cheng? This fellow is quite clever. The truth is, the really amazing Mages actually have their own fixed squads. They rarely wander over here. In my point of view, we should just choose Ah Cheng. His Fire abilities should be sufficient enough against a Magical Beast,” the graceful, long-haired Wind Mage spoke up.

The Captain helplessly shook his head, “It seems like this is the only way.”

As he finished saying this, that sweet-looking recruitment girl hastily ran over, her face ramming directly into the Captain's chest.

“A…Ah, I’m sorry.” The recruitment girl’s cheeks were red as she hastily apologized. “There’s… there’s a Lightning… a Lightning Mage applying to join our City Hunter’s Team.”

“Are you for real??” The tall and sturdy Captain seemed more energized, his eyes beamed as he looked in the direction of the long recruitment line.

The other squadmates’ eyes also sparkled.

Lightning Mage!

Their City Hunter Team was indeed popular, relative to other squads. However, that didn’t mean that Lightning Mages were willing to enlist with them.

In the past, Lightning Mages had always been guests among the Hunter Squads. Some of the more Elite squads wouldn’t mind taking in a completely newbie Lightning Mage.

You could definitely cultivate newbies. However, an one in a thousand Lightning Mage was extremely hard to find even if you were to turn on a lantern!

Too many Lightning Mages had already been reserved, and additionally, they were very easy to absorb into a large Ancient Family or other organizations. The possibility of finding an unattached Lightning Mage was just far too small.

“Is that him?” The sturdy Captain was a little impatient, he directly walked out from the back room.

“Y...yes, Captain. Are you going to personally interview him?” the recruitment girl stuttered.

“Interview… What’s there to interview?” the sturdy Captain turned around, looking puzzled.

The recruitment girl, as well as the other teammates, were confused. If the Captain wasn’t going to personally interview him, then why did he run over there?
