Chapter 278: 228
Broken Space, Immobilization, Teleportation!
Three Space Star Cards, all above 100,000!
[Broken Space]: A regular Star Power defense skill. It forms a space fracture to maximize defense, claimed to block all blue Star Power attack skills!
Whether it can truly block depends on the difference in Star Power between the user and the enemy. Nevertheless, its evaluation already testifies to its defensive capability.
[Immobilization]: A T0.5 level super-strong Space control skill, simple and brutal.
Its strength is evident from its price. Its greatest feature is that it activates faster than Elemental Magnetism Pressure, and apart from a pointing gesture, it has virtually no signs, making it very hard to guard against.
However, as a control skill, Sky Lock also has its advantages.
Firstly, in terms of control strength, the energy-formed entity of the Sky Lock is more stable and powerful compared to the ethereal Immobilization!
Secondly, in terms of flexibility, the Sky Lock surpasses Immobilization!
It not only can lock regions and individual targets but also freely switch control targets. Additionally, the “Sky Lock Golden Cicada” trait makes it an absolute killer in high-level confrontations!
Overall, the Sky Lock is superior, with its only slight disadvantage compared to Immobilization being in surprise attacks.
But even this disadvantage is minor. The chain speed of the Sky Lock is extremely fast, making it almost impossible to avoid under normal circumstances.
“Without comparison, I wouldn’t have known that Bing Tong really found such an extremely strong control skill for me…”
Su Yuan secretly sighed. Based on the battle merit, the Sky Lock probably required around 300,000 battle merits!
The rarer the treasure, the stronger it is, and the more expensive it becomes!
[Teleportation]: Although this card has no direct attack or control effect, its strategic importance is irreplaceable.
When traps are set in advance, it can achieve an almost invincible preemptive strike.
Especially in team battles, it can instantly swap an important enemy target into our camp to encircle and kill it!
As for Su Yuan himself, with his array of Space Skills, escaping safely wasn’t difficult if prepared well.
After a moment of contemplation, Su Yuan had made his decision. He opened his eyes and handed the jade token to Hou Wu.
“Special Envoy Hou, I choose [Broken Space] and [Teleportation]!”
[Broken Space] was a regular defense skill, but he lacked defense skills, especially Star Power defense skills!
Phase Transfer and Instant Movement greatly enhanced his survivability and flexibility, but they couldn’t completely replace defense skills.
Firstly, if there were situations where evasion was impossible and only hard resistance remained, he would be in big trouble.
Secondly, an additional pure defense skill would make his battle strategies more flexible and diverse.
As for choosing [Teleportation], it didn’t need much explanation.
Even without relying on others, Su Yuan had many summoning entities like the Frost Giant Dragon.
He could easily have the summoning entities prepare their ultimate moves and suddenly swap the opponent over for a heavy strike!
After exchanging these two cards, he would spend a total of 350,000 battle merits, leaving him with 140,000 points.
With so many battle merits, he could still get another top-tier treasure. But for now, Su Yuan hadn’t decided what to exchange for.
Moreover, now wasn’t the time to think about it in detail. He would decide after finishing the journey to the secret realm in Yunze Lake. At worst, he could exchange everything for Star Stones.
After all, what he needed now was a large number of Star Stones for cultivation in the Star Mist Pool to reach the Gold Level as soon as possible.
“Alright.” Hou Wu didn’t hesitate and handed the talisman to Zhou Chao behind him. “Captain Zhou, please make a trip and exchange these two Star Cards for him immediately.”
“Yes!”
…
B-6 Island, Cloud Lake.
Su Yuan followed Hou Wu and Zhou Chao to this place.
There were already many military personnel here, including experts at the Level Three of Sun, Moon, and Stars.
Among the crowd, in the center, stood a middle-aged man with a square face.
This middle-aged man had short white hair, a robust build, sharp eyes, and a scar on his face.
He wore a black robe with gold edges similar to Hou Wu’s, but the golden patterns on his robe were more refined. On his left shoulder was a lifelike Vermilion Bird embroidered in gold thread, about a palm’s size.
Besides him, there were two others whose aura was unfathomable, both at the Burning Sun Level!
As for the Radiant Moon Level military big shot who arrived at the camp with Ji Lang earlier, he could only stand aside, hardly able to speak.
“Imperial Envoy Rong, I have brought the person.” Hou Wu brought Su Yuan to the front and introduced, “This is Su Yuan from Demon Capital Academy.”
Su Yuan also saluted, “Senior Rong.”
Rong Fangsheng turned to look at Su Yuan. After a brief glance, he slightly nodded, “Not bad! Young man, you have already understood the situation in the Secret Realm, right?”
Su Yuan replied, “Rest assured, Senior. Special Envoy Hou has explained everything to me just now.”
Rong Fangsheng, clearly a decisive person, said immediately, “Good, then I’ll leave it to you.”
“You’re too kind, Senior. I’ll do my best.”
Rong Fangsheng nodded, “Time is pressing. Hou Wu, take him down.”
“Yes!” Hou Wu responded, then said to Su Yuan, “Follow me.”
Hou Wu waved his hand, instantly enveloping both of them in a layer of Star Power, and they entered Yunze Lake together.
As they kept descending, a “portal” with blue light appeared in what should have been the lake bottom.
