Chapter 140: 140. Generous rewards after clearing the stage! _1
Translator: 549690339
The blade of the [Sorrow of Fungus] was just touching Tina’s body when the frost energy contained in the sword started spreading throughout Tina, her health bar rapidly rose!
Within a second, Tina’s health bar had been pulled back up to a safe 33%.
She climbed up from the ground, her spirit restored.
“Thank you, Nemesis. Leave the rest to me!”
Confidence blossomed on Tina’s face as she returned the [Sorrow of Fungus] to Su Yu. Then she raised her long sword once again, charging at the boss, a golden glow making the blade extraordinarily bright.
This time the boss did not have its ultimate [Energy Pulse] skill, and Tina’s health bar was much greater than his.
After an intense battle, a swipe from Tina brought the boss’s health to zero.
The advanced trial dungeon was successfully cleared!
“Ding, [Orleans City Saintess (6/100)] completed, reward evaluation in progress…”
“Based on your reward evaluation of “S”, and as you already own a territory, you receive: Experience Points x2000. One scroll of [Ice Barrier (Epic)]; one [Fortress] Blueprint.”
Players who already own territories have a chance to receive building blueprints as a reward upon completing quests.
Especially for quests with reward assessments, the higher the score, the greater the chance to get a blueprint, and the better the quality of blueprint.
Such as this [Fortress] blueprint they received this time.
It is a military building blueprint, always referred as a “Little Defensive Miracle” by the players in the past life!
Building a [Fortress] on a key part of the way to their territory and stocking up some soldiers would effectively deter the invasion of enemies.
Especially for monster sieges and bandit invasions, it is arguably the best cost-effective building.
Of course, Su Yu’s territory is called “Aphi,” which means “Shanghai”. If using the [Fortress]blueprint to make a movie named “Shanghai Fortress”, it might achieve high box office revenues.
As for [Ice Barrier (Epic)], it’s a signature skill of the mages!
[Ice Barrier]
Epic
You are covered by an Ice Barrier, immune to all physical and spell damage for 10 seconds. However, during this period, you cannot attack, move or cast spells.
You are also affected by the adverse effect of low temperature, and you cannot cast Ice Barrier again within 30 seconds.
Instant. Cooldown time: 5 minutes. Mana consumption: 200 points.
[Ice Barrier], also known as “Fridge,” is one of the most representative skills of the Mage profession.
After casting [Ice Barrier], one is immune to all damage, effectively invincible for 10 seconds!
If Su Yu knew this skill earlier, he could have used the [Ice Barrier] to resist the boss’s [Void Law Sphere] skill, without worrying about being killed instantly.
And it is also the most commonly used life-saving skill for mages.
Su Yu is not lacking in damage right now, what he needs is a life-saving measure, therefore he is extremely satisfied with this scroll!
After the quest was completed, the blueprint from the scroll went directly into his inventory.
Without much thought, Su Yu instantly learned [Ice Barrier], and spent 600,000 spiritual energy coins to upgrade it to Legendary quality.
Upon reaching Legendary quality, [Ice Barrier] immediately gained some extra attributes.
One of the most readily apparent was that the [Ice Barrier (Epic)] skill icon was grayed out and unusable.
But after upgrading to [Ice Barrier (Legendary)], the skill icon became brightly lit and usable.
Su Yu immediately cast [Ice Barrier].
Hum-
A huge block of solid ice appeared around him, enclosing him tightly within it.
His [Void Imprisonment] debuff also disappeared instantly.
It appeared that after upgrading to Legendary quality, [Ice Barrier] had gained two new attributes: “Can be cast under any conditions” and “Removes existing controls”
With these two attributes, the practicality of [Ice Barrier] significantly increased, furthermore, the life-saving effect had significantly improved!
Apart from these two effects, the duration of [Ice Barrier] had also significantly increased. It lasted until 15 seconds, an increase of 50% from the Epic level.
It can be said that, after [Flash Skill], Su Yu gained yet another substantial life-saving skill!
After Tina defeated [Voidwalker Kassadin], she sat down on the ground, slowly absorbing the abundant energy from the boss.
As she absorbed more and more energy, Tina’s aura gradually became more solid and her foundation much stronger.
After a while, her golden aura began to boil and roll like boiling water, becoming extremely dazzling.
Su Yu had experienced this situation before. It was an anomaly that occurred during Tina’s leveling-up process.
He used [Insight] spell to take a look.
Character: [Tina Garcia]
Level: 53 [Tier Three]
Profession: Warrior, Knight
Preferences: Sweet food, petting cats, showing off her new clothes to Nemesis
Indeed, Tina took this opportunity to level up by three levels.
“Ah! If only I could level up at this speed, that would be great!” Su Yu felt a bit envious.
The fourth layer of the trial grounds.
Two hours had now passed since Tina and Su Yu had entered the secret realm of trials.
The instructors who had come here earlier had nearly all left already, only Legion Commander Grace and Instructor Marguerite were still here.
“Legion Commander, why don’t you go tend to your tasks? I can keep an eye on things here by myself,” Marguerite suggested somewhat embarrassedly.
“Alright, but if Tina comes out, notify me immediately!” Grace sighed and turned around, preparing to return to the surface.
However, just as she was about to leave, the gate to the high-level secret realm suddenly burst into a gleaming blue light.
A beautiful young girl clad in golden armor stepped out from the gate.
“Tina, great, you finally came out!”
Marguerite was initially shocked, then quickly overjoyed, she rushed towards Tina and gave her a big hug.
Now that Tina was out, her year’s salary was secured!
“Instructor Marguerite…” Tina was startled by the instructor’s sudden move, but she also noticed the Legion Commander Grace standing behind her. She quietly said, “Legion Commander, why did you come here?”
Looking at the radiant and stronger Tina, Grace had a lot she wanted to say.
But when the words reached her mouth, they turned into, “I was just taking a stroll and happened to pass by.”
“Oh, I see.” Tina nodded, and said, “Instructor Lady, Legion Commander, I couldn’t have passed the high-level secret realm test without Nemesis. If it weren’t for him, I’d probably be dead inside by now!”
At this moment, Su Yu also stepped out from the gate.
Listening to Tina’s words, he quickly humbly responded, “As a knight’s squire, it is my duty to alleviate worries for the knight. We squires should comply regardless of what request the knight makes.”
But Instructor Marguerite was unimpressed and gave him a hard stare.
If it weren’t for this young man, Tina wouldn’t be in danger. What kind of squire leads their knight into a pit of fire?
Legion Commander Grace also looked deeply at Su Yu.
Realizing something, she said to Tina, “Tina, remember! Don’t be blinded by money.”
She knew that Nemesis had made several million spiritual energy coins from [Navi Black Gold] and was wealthy.
She suspected that Nemesis had become Tina’s squire by throwing around lots of money.
She can’t let Nemesis corrupt this kind, innocent girl with the evil of money.
“???” Tina instantly had three question marks above her head.
“Blinded by money”? What was that about?
Grace too lazy to explain, said, “Alright, Tina. Now that you’ve passed the trial, bring your belongings to the camp tomorrow and officially join the Knights! We are going to hold a welcome ceremony for you at the headquarters of the Knight’s Order, to celebrate your joining!”
At the same time, Su Yu received a game notification:
“Ding, your main storyline has been updated! [Saint of Orleans City (7/100)].”
“Task Requirement: Witness Tina joining the force [Unicorn Knights].”
“Task Reward: Experience Points X1000.”
