“Thank you, Your Highness the Princess!” Su Yu walked forward happily, cing the five skill scrolls into his backpack.
The third-order skill scrolls are difficult to obtain in the game. Bosses in team dungeons with more than 20 people have a drop chance and the drop rate is about 3%. High rarity hidden quests might reward these, but the chances are still slim.
This time the princess has generously given him five! She has been so kind to him!
Now, Su Yu has collected half of his third-order spells. He believes that the princess will reward the other half as the subsequent tasks are unlocked!
With this thought, Su Yu spirits lifted: “Your Highness, what do I need to do next?”
“Next is the war, of course.” Alyssa, blinking her big eyes, looked at Su Yu: “I will be preparing for the final battle in the next month. You and Tina must defend the city walls during this time and not let the rebels break through!”
“Ding, your main storyline has been updated, [Goldfinch Empire (61-70/100)].”
“Task requirements: Complete [the Orleans City Defense Battle].”
“Task reward: Rewards will be given randomly based upon taskpletion.”
“I will not let the rebels break into the city, I promise!” Su Yu was full of confidence.
“Hmm, you can go.”
The princess leaned back in her chair, looking somewhat tired: “You’ve worked hard during this period. After the war is over, I will reward you handsomely… Oh, Nemesis.”
As the princess said this, she suddenly sat upright and asked seriously, “Nemesis, would you be interested in governing this country with me?”
Her meaning in her words couldn’t be more tant.
“Um…” Su Yu was somewhat uncertain.
However, he quickly gave an answer, “Your Highness, now is not the time to consider these things. Once the war is over, I will give you a satisfactory answer. How about that?”
“Alright, you think about it.” Alyssa, catching the hint of refusal in Su Yu’s words, sighed softly.
After bidding farewell to the princess, Su Yu left the pce.
At the pce gates, he took the five skill scrolls out from his backpack and learned each one in session.
He spent 5.5 million spiritual energy coins, raising all these skills to a [Master Level].
After being elevated to [Master Level], the properties of these skills have been enhanced threefold:
[Fire Spell Affinity (Master Level)]
Fire spell casting distance +60%
Fire spell casting speed +28%
Fire spell mana consumption -32%
[Fire Spell Resistance (Master Level)]
Damage from me attacks -32%
A [me Shield] will be automatically activated when about to take me damage. The shield value equals 28% of the spell power, and can only absorb fire damage.
The damage and duration caused by the negative state [Burning] -56%
The details of the three ice system passive skills are not repeated here.
The properties of these three passive skills are simr to those of the fire system. The only difference is that [Ice Spell Resistance] reduces the duration of [Freezing] effects and slowing effects by 56%.
After the first passive skill of the ice system was upgraded to [Master Level], Su Yu unlocked the second exclusive special skill – [Frozen Tomb].
[Frozen Tomb (Exclusive Special Skill)]: Summon a tomb made of ck ice to trap the enemy, causing high damage and putting the enemy into a [Frozen] state. The duration of the [Frozen] state is determined by the levels of both parties. Cooldown time is 24 hours.
[Frozen Tomb] is a single-target control skill with high damage.
Its cooldown was as long as 24 hours, so naturally, its power wouldn’t beckluster.
In fact,pared to [Frozen Tomb], Su Yu would prefer spells like [Ice Sealing Miles], which haverge-scale crowd control abilities.
But exclusive skills are obtained randomly, and Su Yu couldn’t change it, so it was what it was.
After learning the skill, Su Yu quickly reviewed his attributes, then rode Dima towards the city wall to start the next part of the mission.
The next 10 tasks all involved warfare between yers.
All because there were simply too many yers!
Looking at both sides’ regr armies, the Empire had about 300,000 regr troops, and the rebels had about 700,000, totaling over a million, which was already quite a lot.
However,pared to the number of yers, these numbers werepletely on a different scale.
The number of yers who have entered the game on the “Chinese server” has exceeded a hundred million, with tens of millions active around Orleans City after reaching level 10.
Walking on the streets of Orleans City, yers were packed everywhere, bumping into each other, reminding one of crowded tourist spots during peak seasons.
Faced with such arge yer base, the NPCs on both sides naturally utilized them.
yers were easy to please, they would fight for one whole day (2 hours) for just 10 spiritual energy coins, a cost less than what it might take to hire a single farmer.
Moreover, the yers were generally quite strong and couldn’t die, so both sides’ NPCs hired as many yers as possible to join the war.
Over the past month, the war on the walls of Orleans City had never ceased.
The battlefield radiated out from Orleans City as a center, extending to the surrounding towns and viges.
Eventually, almost the entire territory of Orleans City had be a battlefield, where yers from both sides scrambled and fought over every inch ofnd.
But due to some early influences from Su Yu, the best batch of yers in the game had basically joined the Empire’s side. 76 of the top 100 guilds in the game rankings were of the Empire, and the poption ratio was roughly 6:4.
So although both sides cooperatively grinded in the battlefield, the rebel yers were inevitably at a huge disadvantage.
By the time the main storyline reached the 63rd round, the rebel yers were not only driven off the city wall, but their battlefront was also constantly retreating, almost reaching the rebel camp a kilometer away.
The rebel yers’mander was very helpless and sought help from Duke Landilus.
After understanding the situation, Landilus sent a 2000-strong NPC elite force to join the battlefield.
On the walls of Orleans City, Snow Leopard was observing the enemy situation with a crude telescope made by a yer.
In the battlefield beneath the city, the 2000-strong NPC elite force sticks into the formation of the Empire’s yers like a sharp knife, causing casualties wherever they go.
In the elite force of the rebels, the weakest soldiers had second-order power, the [Centurions] and [Centenarians] were even third-order powerhouses, and the two [Kilofuchas] reached as high as the fourth order!
The two [Kilofuchas] at the front of the army were invincible to the yers’ attacks, on the contrary, their area attacks could take dozens of yers’ lives with each hit.
Such formidable power rapidly copsed the battlefront, and the battle line was quickly pushed back to the foot of the city wall by the rebels.
The defense warrior of the Snow Leopard team – [Unbreakable Alliance] was standing next to Snow Leopard at this time.
He frowned, a look of worry on his face: “Mr. Zhong, how should we deal with this NPC force? Our yers can’t even break their defense!”
“We don’t need to worry about that.” Snow Leopard replied casually: “I received a private message from Nemesis, the heroine [Tina Garcia] is already on her way here.”
The moment Snow Leopard finished speaking, a golden light came from the city, rapidly approached andnded on the city wall, it was [Tina Garcia]!
Tina’s voice also echoed in the air above the city wall: “From now on, all the military units inside the city will follow mymand, and those who dare to disobey, die!”
ps: Something came up today, so I’ll just post once. I’ll definitely make up for it tomorrow!
