    “This can’t exactly be called ‘[Overwhelming Pressure]’ anymore, I’d rather call ita ’25x Earth God Shield!!”


    Looking at the giant number “-13266” and the Jade Demon Statue shattered on the ground, Su Yu cracked a satisfied smile.


    After [Earth’s Shield] was advanced to legendary quality, like other spells, it gained the ability to “charge.”


    [Magic Bullet] can be charged up to 20 times, with the damage increasing from 300% spell power to 6000% spell power.


    [Earth’s Shield] is a shield type skill and can charge a bit more, up to 25 times.


    The original attributes of [Earth’s Shield] were:


    [Earth’s Shield (Epic)]: Uses earth elements to condense a shield around you, absorbs 400% spell strength worth of damage. Physical damage taken is reduced by 20%. Instant,sts for 60 seconds, cooldown time is 60 seconds, and uses 30 mana points.


    Su Yu’s spell strength is 178. When charged 25 times, the shield value of [Earth’s Shield] reached a whopping 17800 points!


    Under the characteristics of [Overwhelming Pressure], all the shield value was converted into damage at once, swiftly killing the same level boss in one hit!


    Of course, there were many drawbacks behind this powerful attack.


    For example, the casting time was long, and the consumption was great. To unleash a 25 times charged [Earth Shield], at least 15 seconds of casting time and 750 mana points are needed.


    If it were in an arena match, the opponent wouldn’t foolishly wait for Su Yu to cast a spell for 15 seconds. This move definitely wouldn’t be possible to use.


    Plus, the consumption of 750 mana points was too high. After using this move, it would affect his continuousbat abilityter.


    So this could only be used as a secret weapon, not as a regr attack method.


    But in any case, Su Yu was very satisfied with this attack. What could be more fulfilling than being able to one-shot a boss of his level?


    After the [Jade Golem] fell, Su Yu happily walked up, brushed aside the jade shards on the ground, and picked up the boss’s drop.


    The boss’s loot was very generous:


    te mail gloves [Blue Stone (Rare) Iv21], Bow [Green Wind (Excellent) lv21], Skill Scroll [Thunderfall Skill (Normal)], Skill Scroll [Bone Piercing (Normal)], Material (Jade Core (Excellent)] x1.


    Among these, [Bone Piercing] is a skill for assassin sses.


    [Thunderfall Skill] is a first-tier spell for mage’s lightning series, which Su Yu didn’t know yet. So, after getting the scroll, he directly used it and spent 666660 spiritual energy coins to upgrade it to legendary quality.


    [Thunderfall Skill (Legendary)]: Summons a thunderbolt to fall from the sky, causing great damage to the target.


    Compared to the zero-tier [Lightning Bolt], the damage of [Thunderfall Skill] is about twice as much, but it has a cooldown of 3 seconds. It can be used as a main damage output spell in the future.


    After killing the [Jade Golem], the exit of the secret passage was close at hand.


    Su Yu drank several [Medium Mana Potions] to restore his mana.


    After his mana was filled, he activated [Invisibility Skill] and walked out from the secret passage exit.


    Coming out from the secret passage, Su Yu entered Duke’s manor.


    The Duke’s manor was vast, epassing dozens of various buildings within.


    Cautionary of avoiding patrol guards, Su Yu made his way to the most luxurious building in the center of theplex.


    This should be the Duke’s usual residence.


    The manor’s guards noticed some activity in the underground chessboard, but they didn’t mind it too much.


    The Lord was known to move chess pieces to please the favoureddies, and the chessboard maintenance often created noises. Therefore, they did not notice Su Yu’s intrusion.


    Su Yu progressed smoothly, sessfully entered the main building, and arrived in the Duke’s study on the second floor.


    The study was about 40 square meters, not too spacious, but was extravagantly decorated. Numerous master artworks hung from the walls and a slight scent of violets wafted from the leather luxury chair.


    Su Yu moved lightly and patiently began searching through the bookshelf and desk drawers.


    Meanwhile, he also kept an eye on the surrounding walls for any hiddenpartments often favored by the nobles for hiding their belongings.


    The search went very smoothly.


    Two minutester, Su Yu located a hiddenpartment in the east wall.


    Disyed inside thepartment was not the evidence of the Duke colluding with Wind Chime Empire, but a ring made of tinum, inset with a ck gemstone the size of a rice grain.


    [ck Star]


    rung


    Luxury Item


    Description: High-ss jeweler Vielomi created this ck gemstone ring to please a nobledy, worth 50,000 spiritual energy coins – Goblin merchant Buffet.


    ying with the ring in his hand, Su Yu nodded subtly.


    This ring was not a yer’s equipment, but a high-value luxury item that could be traded to NPCs for arge sum of money.


    Meanwhile, Su Yu also had a revtion.


    It seemed that the 15th task reward in the princess questline wasn’t just 1000 experience points, “exploring the Duke’s study” could also be considered part of the reward.


    Su Yu tossed the ring into his backpack and continued searching around the study.


    Another 5 minutester, Su Yu found a well-packaged letter sandwiched in a book called “Smell of Women. [A Letter Full of Affection]


    Quest Item


    Description: A correspondence between Duke Anzu Seifer and Prince Gaven IV of Demacia State in the Wind Chime Empire, seems to conceal a big secret.


    “This should be the quest item that the princess wanted, but why is it ‘full of affection’?” Su Yu didn’t understand the prefix of the letter.


    Two big men, full of affection how!


    He really wanted to open the letter.


    But the letter was sealed with a special spell, so he couldn’t open it.


    He could only temporarily toss it into his backpack for now.


    With the mission item at hand, the 15th task in the princess questline was consideredplete.


    Next, he just needs to go back the way he came and deliver the letter to Princess Alyssa.


    But Su Yu didn’t want to leave so easily.


    ording to the [ck Star] and his game experience from his previous life, Duke Seifer’s study should be a ‘Treasury’ -like ce. The longer he stays here, the higher the value of the items he will find.


    Of course, the price he pays for staying here is that he could be discovered and fail the mission at any time.


    But looking at the [Random Teleport Scroll] in his backpack, Su Yu suddenly gained confidence.


    If he were to be discovered, he could teleport away immediately, fearless!


    Entering Duke Seifer’s study is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, not to be missed!


    Having thought this through, Su Yu didn’t leave. but continued searching in the study.


    Meanwhile, at Wolf Howl Castle five kilometers northwest of the manor.


    Duke Anzu Seifer sat in a secret room’s giant leather chair sorting out files, preparing for tomorrow’s negotiations.


    The faint candlelight shone on him, casting a less than robust shadow on the wall.


    Suddenly, the Duke seemed to sense something. He lifted his head, his sharp gaze sweeping towards the southeast.


    Duke Seifer set down the documents in his hand and walked out of the secret chamber.


    “Lake?”


    “Master.”A warrior d in light armor knelt before the Duke.


    “You go to the southern manor. I suddenly sensed the presence of a bug.”


    “Your order!”


    The light armor warrior took his orders and left..
