Chapter 539: Chapter 80 Art is an Explosion!_1

Although Naifertali’s description made Jiu’er feel quite strange,

the vocation indeed met her requirements.

It didn’t have any flashy mechanics... based on simplicity and plainness, the taboo of Curse Binding was also very easy to understand.

It wasn’t like the Cup Knight, who might occasionally trigger a "seduced" debuff, nor did it require a complex combo like the Sword Saint...

Seeing the progression of Delicious Wind Goose, Jiu’er’s only comment was four words:

— Short of breath.

Truly short of breath—the amount of sword energy Delicious Wind Goose had was ridiculously low.

After just two moves, he was completely out of energy.

Even Ultraman had more stamina than him!

Is this really a Swordsman vocation, not an assassin one...?

Or is it that the assassins next door have all switched to becoming Berserkers, and now the Swordsmen have to take over the work of stealth and one-hit kills?

"As for the advancement of ’Ambusher’... My recommendation is ’Destroyer’."

Naifertali said, flipping open another book.

This was a spellbook with a name, titled "My Body is the Furnace". Under the gold-red scaly cover was thick parchment. The entire book had only a few pages.

Just by opening it, Naifertali caused the air temperature to rise rapidly. Within a few seconds, a layer of white fog condensed on the inside of a clear water glass in the room.

"Be careful not to touch the pages."

Naifertali warned, "Just look from a distance. Close the book immediately after reading, without turning the pages."

The pages of this book were indeed magical.

If one were to draw a metaphor, it was like a sizzling hot iron plate. Touching it with bare hands would surely result in burns.

Since the book had been opened, the temperature kept rising. Now, just by bringing one’s face close, with dozens of centimeters apart, it would still make one’s face feel moistened by the heat, almost squinting the eyes.

Giralda and Niusel both came over curiously.

"Is this a spellbook from the school of Destruction?"

Niusel asked curiously, "Are you suggesting he change vocation to become a Wizard of Destruction?"

Lord Giralda was also eager to ask this question.

But considering that curiosity could dent his grandeur, he restrained himself. Fortunately, Niusel was too considerate; he asked everything that Annan wanted to know.

"Yes, this is a spellbook from the school of Destruction,"

Naifertali nodded and explained, "The Destroyer is a new vocation that has emerged. To my knowledge, there might be fewer than ten Destroyers in the entire world.

"It can only be advanced from an Ambusher or a Wizard of Destruction. But actually, the real goal is to provide a career change for the Wizard of Destruction."

The girl with flaming hair and eyes spoke earnestly.

Giralda seemed to understand, "It’s because Wizards of Destruction are too unstable, right?"

"Unstable" was just a more euphemistic way of putting it.

He remembered the Wizard of Destruction he had encountered in "Nightmare: White Tower", who was more than just "unstable".

The silent red-haired boy, with bandages covering his eyes, mouth stitched shut with thread, wearing a straitjacket used for confining mental patients, and even his shoes had no soles—his white bandages serving as makeshift socks.

The blood that flowed from him burned intensely, fiercer than gasoline when it met a match; merely looking at someone with his eyes could cause spontaneous combustion or explosion; the words he spoke could directly destroy buildings and disintegrate human bodies. Even after he was killed, his corpse could cause an earth-shaking explosion.

True to its name, the school of "Destruction" studied only "destructive spells", a legitimate school of quantum. Their creed was that if a spell couldn’t solve a problem, it meant that the power was still insufficient.

As long as the destructive power is strong enough, one can achieve any purpose through their own deterrence—it’s just like the gods high above, who are just older Transcendents with more powerful abilities.

They are the wizard faction that most demands "presence" and is the most persistent about "power" and "politics".

This is precisely because of their high trust in "destruction spells" and the very distinct "power hierarchy" that destruction spells create within the Wizard’s Tower.

Unlike spells from other schools, the sole purpose of destruction spells is to destroy. They are not like the Cripple or Soul Reaping schools, which are a fusion of multiple professions.

Instead, in the Wizard Civil War, they assembled all the high-performance, cost-effective spells used for assault and destruction from all the world’s spell-casting professions.

They are not like the transmutation wizards who can freely perform large-scale chain transmutations on the battlefield, eventually releasing barrages that far surpass their own strength.

The destructors like to affix dangerous spells to themselves, turning spells into Constant Abilities... For orthodox destructors, "You look very dangerous" can even be considered a compliment.

It’s probably just like telling a Berserker, "You look very wild," or "You look like a madman"—it’s essentially the same thing.

"But during times of peace, these wizard apprentices with violent temperaments and strong desires for control are not commonly seen."

Naifertali paused, then continued, "These are all things I heard from an old sage at last year’s Sage Conference.

"’Destroyer’ is said to be a new profession invented by the famous destructive wizard family ’Roaring Fang’. Compared to giving ambush experts a powerful advancement, their main purpose is actually to create a new path for destructive wizards."

The higher the rank of a destructive wizard, the greater the harm to themselves.

They are the only ones in the Wizard’s Tower to directly learn Twisted Spells.

—Because when it comes to pure power, ordinary spells definitely cannot compare to Twisted Spells. Coupled with the strange and peculiar enchantments that destructors always want to attach to themselves, it directly results in a very high sudden death rate for destructors.

"The strength of the ’Destroyer’ profession lies in the ability to set up and even throw traps in the wilderness at any time. For example, tossing or sticking inconspicuous spheres that can be detonated manually, or creating liquid bombs with their own blood that can be ignited at any moment.

"Besides that, their bullets, arrows, throwing knives or other traps can also be imbued with scorching effects—of course, they can also explode. Even if the enemy doesn’t step on a trap, they wouldn’t expect that the trap could be detonated manually..."

This profession is great!

Art is an explosion, after all!

Four of a Kind’s eyes sparkled with interest, listening intently.

Naifertali was serious about teaching: "This profession requires the highest level of ’sleight of hand’; it also requires the learning of Instant Spells ’Metal Detonation’ and ’Clay Detonation’, as well as Guided Spells ’High Heat Plasma’, ’Flaming Weapon’. Mastering these spells will enable you to advance to a destroyer in the Nightmare.

"For ordinary destructors, they must clear four slots from their limited spell slots to accommodate these spells... Generally speaking, one has to wait until they’ve maximized the bronze rank to have enough space—mainly because there’s a shortage of slots for Instant Spells.

"—But you are different.

"You are not originally a destructor, so your Instant Spell slots can’t be occupied. This means you can master these four spells just as a wizard apprentice without becoming a Formal Wizard... In that case, your wizard level need not be raised to the same standard as your current profession."

In other words, Naifertali meant to let Four of a Kind take up a level ten "Wizard Apprentice (Destruction School)", get the spells needed for advancement, and then withdraw.

That is indeed an approach.

"Thank you very much!"

Four of a Kind respectfully and excitedly bowed to Naifertali.

Naifertali was not very accustomed to this and just waved her hands somewhat awkwardly: "It’s no trouble at all.

"Aside from ’Metal Detonation’ and ’Clay Detonation’, everything else is in this book. You can try learning them, and if you manage to, I’ll find you the spellbooks for those two spells. You can learn spells without going to the Wizard’s Tower.

"Of course, if you can’t understand it... then there’s nothing I can do."

Naifertali spread her hands: "After all, I’m not a wizard."

Annand, who was beside them, suddenly felt a stirring of interest as he watched her.

Naifertali’s knowledge about career advancements was indeed very systematic and reliable.

... When there are more players later on.

Should I bring Naifertali over... no, what I mean is hire her, as a professional advancement instructor?
