Chapter 203: Raising a Little Girl
Chapter 203: Raising a Little Girl
Merk, as a defensive warrior, had three traits that significantly boosted his defense. The third trait even allowed him to convert his defense into actual damage. With the ability to both tank and deal damage, Su Yu was very satisfied.
After Merk finished leveling up, Su Yu turned his head to look at the little girl behind him, Kathy. "Kathy, are you willing to accept this accessory and fight alongside your father?"
Kathy didn't answer immediately. Instead, she first glanced at her father for his opinion.
Merk was initially taken aback, then a look of difficulty crossed his face. "My Lord, Kathy is only 12 years old. Perhaps in a few years, she can serve you."
Merk had received immense favor from Su Yu. Even if Su Yu had given him a mission that was certain death, Merk wouldn't have hesitated.
But the thought of his 12-year-old daughter joining the army at such a young age was something Merk, as a father, couldn't bear to agree to.
"No, no, you're mistaken. Twelve is the perfect age for education," Su Yu said with a smile, waving his hand. "To be honest, I chose to enhance both you and Kathy because of her talent."
Kathy's initial trait was Elemental Perception: +35% Meditation Efficiency.
"Meditation Efficiency" was a clear indicator of a mage's potential. For ordinary mages, this efficiency typically ranged from 5% to 20%.
Kathy's Meditation Efficiency was a staggering 35%, rivaling even excellent and rare-quality mages. Her foundation was excellent, which was why Su Yu had sought out this father and daughter.
Of course, beyond her talent, Kathy had beautiful brown hair and a delicate, adorable face.
Having a cute little girl around was much better than a group of gruff, middle-aged men.
"Kathy is still very young," Merk was still hesitant.
"I'm not young, Dad!" Kathy stood up straight, her eyes shining with determination. "Dad, without Lord Su Yu, we would have starved to death long ago. Besides, I trust Lord Su Yu!"
She quickly walked over to Su Yu, took the accessory, and solemnly fastened it to her chest.
"Ahh..." Merk reached out his hand but ultimately did not stop her.
As soon as she put on the accessory, a large amount of elemental energy gathered around Kathy's small body, purifying her and enhancing her innate abilities.
From Su Yu's perspective, Kathy's attribute panel showed an increasing number of traits, with their values also rising.
After three minutes, the elemental energy dissipated.
Kathy's originally pale and malnourished face became rosy and smooth, almost translucent.
Her brown hair shone brightly, radiating a dazzling light.
Her attribute panel was now finalized:
Kathy
- Level: 10
- Quality: Rare
- Class: Elemental Mage
- Trait 1: Elemental Perception: +70% Meditation Efficiency.
- Trait 2: Frost Spell Mastery: +30% Frost Spell Damage, +30% Control Effect, -50% Cooldown, -50% Casting Time, -50% Mana Cost.
- Trait 3: Spatial Gateway (Stage 1): Opens a gateway to Auran City. Requires being within 100 kilometers of Auran City. The gateway can transport up to 5 people. Cooldown: 2 hours. (Stage 2 unlocks at level 30.)
Seeing Kathy's traits, Su Yu's eyes lit up.
Her Meditation Efficiency had increased to 70%, which was on par with epic-quality talents.
With Trait 2, Kathy could specialize in frost spells, making her easier to cultivate.
As for Trait 3, it was a pleasant surprise. He hadn't expected Kathy to master the rare "Spatial Gateway" spell!
"Gateway" spells were extremely rare in Evolution, with fewer than one in a thousand mages capable of using them.
I never expected that Kathy would be among that one in a thousand!
Now that Su Yu has Kathy by his side, he won’t have to waste time traveling, saving him a lot of effort.
"Come on, Kathy, Uncle will buy you some snacks, and then we’ll go level up."
Su Yu spoke gently, taking the little girl’s hand and preparing to head back to town to buy her some treats, exchange for a suitable set of equipment, and then bring her to the northern forest to level up, aiming to unlock the second stage of the Spatial Portal as quickly as possible.
"Lord!" Merk’s expression was less than friendly.
Hearing Su Yu’s tone, Merk couldn’t help but think that Su Yu might be using the pretext of leveling up to take his daughter to the forest for nefarious purposes! She’s only 12, you pervert!
Seeing Merk’s face turn ashen with anger, Su Yu knew he had been misunderstood.
"You’ve got it wrong, Merk," Su Yu explained. "I really just want to take her to level up."
Merk still looked doubtful.
Kathy, meanwhile, blinked her large, confused eyes. "What are you talking about?"
"Never mind," Su Yu shook his head. "It doesn’t matter whether I bring one person or two. You should come along, Merk."
With that, Su Yu led little Kathy toward the town’s market, with Merk quickly following.
At the market, Su Yu bought some food and water, then went to the warehouse to exchange for a batch of suitable equipment for both Kathy and Merk. Afterward, they set off for the northern forest.
After the domain was promoted to a Town, the number of refugees arriving every two hours doubled to 400 at a time.
However, the upgrade conditions also became more stringent. To upgrade from a Small Town to a Medium Town, the total population needed to reach 2000, meaning three waves of refugees were required.
Three waves equated to six hours.
So, over the next six hours, Su Yu, aside from returning to the town hall to research technology, spent his time leveling up Merk and Kathy.
The domain’s talent level system and the monster level system during sieges are different.
The monster siege levels are based on the average player level in the game.
Due to the influx of players, the average level in Evolution is only around 3 to 4, so the first wave of siege monsters is set at the lowest tier—level 10. Subsequent waves gradually increase in level.
The domain’s talent levels, however, are not based on the average player level. Talents start at level 10 and can level up by killing monsters or training.
In the Village stage, the level cap for domain talents is 29, which is the peak of the first tier.
After the domain is promoted to a Town, the level cap for domain talents increases to 49, which is the peak of the second tier.
Moreover, the leveling speed for domain talents is quite fast, especially for high-quality talents.
In a leveling spot in the forest, Su Yu pulled groups of wild monsters, beating them down to a sliver of health so that Merk and Kathy could finish them off.
The father and daughter used area-of-effect skills to kill the monsters, rapidly gaining levels.
After six hours of monotonous leveling, Merk and Kathy quickly reached level 30!
Upon reaching level 30, Kathy’s third ability unlocked its second stage.
Spatial Portal (Stage Two): Opens a portal to cities such as Auran City, Golden Fleur City, Forest City, Pearl City, etc., in the southern empire, provided they are within 500 kilometers. The portal can transport up to 10 people and has a 2-hour cooldown. (Stage Three will unlock at level 50)
"Finally unlocked!" Su Yu was very pleased to see Kathy’s third ability.
From now on, having Kathy around would be like carrying a mobile portal, making travel to any destination incredibly convenient!
