Chapter 236: Taking Action
Chapter 236: Taking Action
Over the next seven in-game days, Su Yu did not return to his territory but instead stayed in Maple Leaf City to learn spatial magic from Antonidas.
The third characteristic of the Golden Gorse Chain is Spatial Mastery (Passive): Your understanding and learning ability for "space" are significantly enhanced, and the effects of spatial magic are increased by 30%.
Thanks to this characteristic, Su Yu's learning efficiency was extremely high! In just seven short days, he mastered all the zeroth and first-tier spatial spells.
There are two zeroth-tier spatial spells: Spatial Blade and Prism Shield.
Spatial Blade is the offensive spell for zeroth-tier spatial mages, distorting the surrounding space to form a sharp blade that is thrown at the enemy, dealing moderate physical damage.
Prism Shield is the defensive spell for spatial mages. Besides providing basic shield value, it also has a chance to deflect arrows, spells, and even sword attacks.
There are three first-tier spatial spells: Spatial Slice (a small-range physical AOE), Spatial Stasis (a group-slowing debuff), and Enhanced Blink (Passive).
Enhanced Blink is Su Yu's favorite passive skill.
After learning this spell, he no longer has to wait for the 12-second cooldown on Blink or spend time charging it. As long as his body can handle it, he can cast Blink multiple times in a row!
After mastering it, Su Yu gave it a try.
With his current fourth-tier status, he could cast Blink for a 15-meter displacement 13 times in a row! For a 50-meter displacement, he could cast Blink four times consecutively before reaching his body's limit.
When his body reached its limit, he felt a tearing pain, as if his body would disintegrate if he forced another Blink. It took him about half a minute to recover.
But this was already perfect. Being able to cast Blink a dozen times in succession gave him a significant survival advantage, even against stronger opponents.
After mastering all the first-tier skills, Su Yu's character sheet updated his Class from Mage to Mage (Elemental/Spatial), making him stand out a bit more from other players.
According to Su Yu's plan, he intended to learn the signature spatial spell—third-tier Portal—before heading to Skrul Planet.
Once he learned Portal, his mobility on Skrul Planet would greatly improve, and this spell would be an excellent choice for escaping danger!
After returning from Skrul Planet, he could return to Antonidas and learn the signature fifth-tier spell, Mass Teleport.
At that point, he could bring a group of people from the capital to the magic capital in just one second, a strategic advantage that was hard to overestimate!
No matter what, Antonidas was a treasure trove, and Su Yu was determined to make the most of this opportunity to learn from him.
These seven days in the game world were relatively uneventful.
The players' world remained calm and peaceful.
Some players were taking on quests, others were grinding levels in training zones, and still others were gathering herbs, farming, or crafting equipment. The atmosphere was one of tranquility.
In the previous life, players around this time couldn't resist their urge to attack, constantly engaging in small and large guild wars. But in this life, there were almost none. Everyone was focused on improving themselves and avoiding internal conflicts.
Caelum spent these seven days locked in the mage tower with the little girl, Kathy, providing her with enough "cat food" (experience crystals) to help her quickly recover her strength.
As for the war front:
On the morning of the third day, at 10:00 AM, Tina led an 8,000-strong elite force of second and third-tier mixed troops, along with 200,000 recruited players, marching rapidly toward the largest kingdom in the west—Quink Kingdom.
The Kingdom of Quink remains completely unaware of the impending disaster, oblivious to the threat that looms over them.
Accompanying Tina are three Seventh-Rank Legendary figures: the Chief Royal Mage of the Silver Pine Spire, Roland; the Legendary Mercenary, Andrew; and the Seventh-Rank Legendary Grand Druid, Vancor Ravenwhisper. Alongside them are over fifty Fifth and Sixth-Rank powerhouses, all intent on overwhelming the Kingdom of Quink with their superior strength.
As for Su Yu and the other high-ranking powerhouses, they are still waiting for the right moment.
On the morning of the eighth day, at ten o'clock, in the noble district of Maple Leaf City, dozens of powerful figures rose from various corners of the district, converging on Su Yu's courtyard.
As they gathered above Su Yu's courtyard, they exchanged friendly smiles and greetings before descending into the yard.
Su Yu and Antonidas were already waiting in the courtyard, having been there for some time.
Seeing the arrival of these powerhouses, Su Yu smiled and greeted them. "Lord Roland, Lady Cecilia, Lord Vancor, welcome! It's a pleasure to see you all."
This time, three Seventh-Rank powerhouses have joined the mission: Roland, the Archmage and Master of the Silver Pine Spire; Cecilia Nightblade, the top-ranked Shadowblade assassin; and Vancor Ravenwhisper, the Legendary Grand Druid.
Both Cecilia Nightblade and Vancor Ravenwhisper are half-elves, descendants of human and elven unions. They served Duke Anzu Sef and Duke Randilus respectively in the past few decades, and surrendered to Princess Alizetta during the final battle in Aurean City.
They have joined this mission primarily to atone for their past deeds.
In addition to these three Seventh-Rank powerhouses, twenty-three Sixth-Rank powerhouses have also arrived, nearly half of the empire's Sixth-Rank strength. They were dispatched by Princess Alizetta and will be under Su Yu's command for this operation.
Seeing Su Yu, Roland, the Master of the Silver Pine Spire, smiled and gave him a formal mage's salute. "Lord Kestrel, it's an honor to meet you. We will rely heavily on your leadership for this mission!"
Seeing Roland's deference, Su Yu felt a wave of emotion. In his previous life, he was a member of the Silver Pine Spire, often proud of his association with such a prestigious organization. Roland, on the other hand, was someone Su Yu looked up to, someone who would barely acknowledge him even if he tried to be a sycophant.
He never imagined that in this life, their positions would be so drastically reversed.
"Master Roland, you are too kind," Su Yu humbly replied. "I am merely a lowly errand boy, running around to assist. The three of you, the Legendary powerhouses, are the true backbone of this mission. I understand this very well."
Impressed by Su Yu's humility, the three Legendary figures looked at him with newfound respect, their regard for him instantly elevated.
"Is everyone ready?" Su Yu scanned the gathered powerhouses.
The present Saint Domain and Legendary powerhouses nodded in unison.
"Very well, let's set out then!"
Su Yu then turned to Antonidas. "Anton, tomorrow at ten o'clock, teleport the interworld adventurers to Seaside Town in Sea Rock City. We will meet you there."
In the "Evolution" game world, a newly ascended Fifth-Rank powerhouse can fly at a speed of 30 kilometers per hour, while a Sixth-Rank Saint Domain can achieve a speed of 185 kilometers per hour. The distance from Maple Leaf City to Sea Rock City is 3,785 kilometers, so it will take Su Yu's group about 20 hours to reach their destination.
Thus, if Antonidas teleports at the same time tomorrow, the two groups will meet up as planned.
"Understood, Lord Kestrel!" Antonidas immediately replied.
