Chapter 51: He May Have Special Talents

The player sent a direct message . “Are you Roland? You want to sell gold coins?”

“Yes,” Roland replied .

“I’ll transfer the money to you according to market price . ”

Roland was about to say that they should find a safe method of transaction that they both trusted first, but while he was still typing, he received a message on the forum .

He had got ninety thousand and five hundred bucks . The five hundred bucks was obviously the transaction fee that Roland had to pay in order to withdraw the money .

This person is truly bold… Roland gasped and asked, “Bro, are you not scared that I’ll run away with your money?”

Hawk’s message soon came . “I don’t think so . You’re a celebrity on the forum . Besides, ninety thousand bucks is not a big deal . ”

Damn, another magnate! He talked exactly like Li Lin did .

“Fine . I’m truly impressed by you people,” sent Roland . “Come to me in the magic tower in Delpon tonight . You should know the magic tower, right?”

“Of course! You’re awesome, Roland . You’ve joined an NPC organization so quickly . ”

“I’ll see you tonight . ”

“All right . ”

Roland closed the forum and had breakfast . Then, he went to the boxing club .

He practiced with the coach .

Half an hour later, Roland discovered that the coach was now even slower .

Previously, he had been blocking the coach’s attacks instinctively, but now, he could see the movement of the coach’s gloved hands .

Was he so talented in melee fights? Had he known it, he would’ve chosen to be a Warrior .

But there were enough melee classes among his friends . It was not bad to be a Mage .

After a while, Roland sat down and took a rest, wiping his sweat with a towel .

At this moment, many students were gathered around someone’s phone and remarking in amazement .

Roland was not a nosy man . He glanced at them but soon lost interest .

However, someone called him . “Roland, check this out . This is truly amazing!”

Although he was not curious, Roland did not intend to be too unfriendly .

He saw a video on the phone and clicked the reply button .

About forty seconds later, he couldn’t help but shout, “This chick is impressive!”

It was footage of a bus . About half past eight last night, a bus was moving from the suburb to downtown . It was not jam-packed, but there were no empty seats, either . A petite girl wearing earphones was highlighted by a green circle .

Several seconds later, a muscular man, highlighted by a red circle, got on the bus . Creepy background music began .

Another several seconds later, the man suddenly took out a knife, as if he was a robber . The passengers all backed away in fear .

The girl who was listening to music was briefly shocked, but then she charged forward and kicked the man’s wrist, forcing him to drop the knife .

The man hadn’t yet realized what was going on when the girl lifted his right hand and slashed the man’s neck .

Roland could tell that the slash was fast and brutal . The man was brawny, but he lost his balance after the attack . Then, the girl turned her body and struck her right hand toward the man’s right kidney .

The man fell and passed out immediately .

The girl, however, backed off and squatted . She held her hands and buried her head between her legs, as if she was crying .

In the last twenty seconds, a female narrator explained that the girl’s fingers were broken in the attack .

As for the man… His neck was only bruised, but his right kidney suffered a heavy strike . He was still in the ICU when the video was posted .

All the comments on the video were praises about how good the girl was .

Some of the comments even said that if she had a sword, the man would’ve lost his head in the first second, and she wouldn’t have been hurt at all .

Reading those comments, Roland realized that the girl must be a player of World of Falan, and she was probably a good one .

She was used to fighting in the game, and she subconsciously followed her battle instincts in reality . However, her body was not as sturdy and she was unarmed, so she did not feel too well although her enemy was crushed .

Roland returned the phone to the friendly student and chit-chatted with him for a while . Then he returned home .

He opened the forum again . Instead of checking the thread he posted in the morning, he went to the general discussion section .

The topic about the girl was trending on the forum .

Many were asking whether or not they would gain similar abilities in reality if they grasped them in the game .

Most players believed that battle experience could be transferred over, but class abilities couldn’t be .

Otherwise, the real world would be too horrifying if Warriors were charging and spellcasters were summoning fiery meteorites all the time .

Then, Roland opened his morning post and found many replies .

Most of them were made by Mages .

They thanked Roland for his advice, some with tips .

Some even joked about how convenient it would be to peep at girls with mental power .

Roland keenly noticed that there were much fewer replies .

Then, he checked the number of posts and replies in the Mage section . It had plummeted compared to when the game was launched a month ago .

People are giving up after all .

Roland sighed .

Mage was too difficult a class . Different from the physical classes that were easy to learn, Mages had no abilities if they did not grasp any spells, and magic was an intricate subject to learn .

For Mages, their game experience was too bad .

Few people would be willing to spend time studying spells .

He estimated that the population of Mages had dropped by half . They all turned to other classes .

Roland actually hoped that there could be more Mages . After all, if more people worked on it together, it would be easier to figure out the particulars of this class .

There was strength in numbers .

He refreshed the section . Then, he saw a most astonishing new thread .

Judging from the time stamp, it was only just posted .

The title of the thread was “Based on my investigation and deduction, First Mage Roland may have special talents . ”
