Chapter 305: 305, come to my room tonight, I’ll show you some good stuff _1
Deputy Marshal Lucas slightly furrowed his brows: “Although I understand your intentions, I still feel it’s somewhat unreasonable. Aren’t we being too reckless?”
“Oh, do you have an opinion?” Su Yu raised an eyebrow.
Lucas jumped and quickly shook his head: “No, no, of course not. You make the final call!”
Despite his high-ranking position as Deputy Marshal and his numerous contributions in the restoration war, no one could prevent Su Yu from demoting him if he decided to do so. Thus, he definitely didn’t dare to challenge Su Yu.
“Then it is decided!” Su Yu clapped his hands, turning to Antondidas who was standing at the far end of the camp.
Antondidas was dressed in a deep blue mage robe, holding a magic staff taller than himself in his right hand.
His eyes were now fully lit with starlight, his face expressionless. He was obviously under deep control.
“Antondidas, how many people can your [Group Teleportation Skill] carry from here to Haiyan City?” Su Yu asked.
As if a machine was starting, Antondidas’s body rattled. “Approximately how far is it?” he asked.
Su Yu glanced at the scale on the map and responded: “A total of 3785 kilometers.”
“For such a long distance…” Antondidas stroked his long beard that reached his belt: “If teleporting seventh-tier beings, I can probably teleport 2 people. The weaker those being teleported, the more I can teleport.”
Stroking his chin, Su Yu asked: “What if all those you’re teleporting are first-tier adventurers?”
“Probably…” Antondidas pondered for a moment, then replied: “Between 10,000 to 12,000 people. The specific number would depend on the actual spatial fluctuation.”
“12,000 people… thats’s enough!” Su Yu was satisfied with this figure.
Antondidas continued, “However, teleporting that many people would essentially deplete my mana. It would take at least two weeks to recover.”
“Alright then, we’ll just teleport 10,000 people. That’ll leave you with a bit of mana.” Su Yu made a decision.
Antondidas bowed respectfully: “Thank you!”
Su Yu had it all figured out: these 10,000 slots would be allocated to the players!
After all, players wouldn’t die. Having them defeated in battle would just mean offline for half an hour;
Moreover, getting the players to raid, they’d get quest items. Unlike NPCs, they wouldn’t privately pocket the loot. This would be very beneficial for his quest completion.
So, Su Yu opened the [Guild Chatroom] and posted a message: “Urgently recruiting 10,000 elites for the main questline, help a newbie out!”
Red-Eyed Black Dragon: “[Blood-spit Emoji] Newbie? Where are you new or cute?”
Su Yu: “Heh, Zhen Hong, this mission doesn’t include you.”
Red-Eyed Black Dragon: “I was wrong! Please, big brother! I was really wrong!!! [Horrified Emoji]”
Laser Pen: “Boss Ke, what kind of mission is this? I’m also a newbie, I really want to know.”
Su Yu: “It’s a ‘raiding’ mission, and I have a hunch that the reward for this mission will be even larger than the previous massive battles!”
Laser Pen: “‘Raiding’? I like that!”
Laser Pen: “By the way, Boss Ke, do you want to duel?”
Su Yu:
He suddenly felt like kicking this person out of the chatroom.
But speaking of “duels”…
Su Yu closed the chatroom interface and looked at Antondidas: “Antondidas, come to my room tonight, I’ve got something good to show you.”
“As you wish.” Antondidas responded without hesitation.
All the people in the tent: “???”
Deputy Marshal Lucas was all the more confused.
What’s the deal with Nemesis? It’s one thing to flirt with the princess and Marshal Tina, but now he’s into this old guy? What kind of bizarre taste is this?
Su Yu didn’t bother explaining: “Alright, let’s conclude the meeting! We’ll have three days of rest and adjustment. The army will depart precisely at 10 AM in three days!”
“Understood!” The generals in the tent responded loudly.
When night fell, as agreed, Antondidas arrived at Su Yu’s residence.
Su Yu’s residence was located in the affluent West part of Maple City, originally a property owned by Duke Anzu Seifer.
After the Seifer family’s demise, the Princess casually gave him this house. This was where he would entertain NPC guests.
With an expressionless face, Antondidas followed the servant into the house.
In a quiet secret room deep within the courtyard, he successfully met Su Yu.
“Master Nemesis.” Antondidas respectfully bowed to Su Yu: “May I ask why have you called on me?”
Before Su Yu could respond, he quickly added, “The princess has ordered that if you make any odd requests, I can refuse.”
“Oh? An odd request? What did the princess mean by that?” Su Yu asked, pretending to be naive.
“Well…” Antondidas hesitated, unsure of how to respond.
“Never mind that. I called you here to take a look at this.” Su Yu waved his hand and pulled out the [Gold Sparrow Interfacial Chain] from his backpack.
The treasure and the [God’s Tribe Badge] were always kept in his backpack. He seldom wore them as they were too precious and he was afraid to attract jealousy from stronger NPCs.
“This is…” The moment Antondidas saw the dazzling necklace in Su Yu’s hand, his eyes widened, and his breathing became noticeably heavier.
This necklace was a treasure to space magic practitioners! An endless source of knowledge could be gained from merely divining its secrets. To say it was the “graduate necklace” of space magic practitioners certainly wouldn’t be an exaggeration!
Seeing his “graduate necklace” in Su Yu’s hands, how could he not be excited?
If it wasn’t for the contract he signed with the Princess, he really would have wanted to seize it by force!
After taking a deep breath to calm his emotions, Antondidas looked at Su Yu, “Master Nemesis, is there anything else you need? Surely you didn’t invite me here just to show off this necklace?”
“Of course not.” Su Yu shook his head with a smile, then his expression turned serious, “I called you here because I want to learn space magic from you. I’ve never studied space magic before, so it would be best to start from the basics.”
“What? You’ve never actually studied space magic before?” Antondidas widened his eyes in disbelief, his chest paining.
The “graduate necklace” that every space magic practitioner dreams of is in the hands of an absolute novice?!
This was a waste, an absolute waste!
Antondidas gripped his magic staff so hard it creaked under the strain, as though it was about to shatter.
Finally, he scowled and forced the words through gritted teeth, “Fine, I’ll teach you. However, my condition is that you plead to the princess on my behalf to reduce the duration of my enslavement.”
“Don’t worry, leave it to me!” Su Yu responded confidently.
