Chapter 262: The Princess's Kiss
Chapter 262: The Princess’s Kiss
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Su Yu eagerly accepted the potion box.
The Foundation Rooting Potion was a divine elixir that, in his previous life, the official records showed was obtained by fewer than 10,000 players out of billions across all servers, a ratio of less than one in a hundred thousand.
He never imagined he would get his hands on such a rare potion so easily!
He carefully placed the potion in his backpack.
But then, a thought struck him. "Your Highness, since I did such a great job, is there any additional reward?"
If he remembered correctly, the game notification he received included not only four Foundation Rooting Potions but also an additional reward marked with a "?". He had no idea what this reward was.
"Additional reward?" A look of surprise crossed Alyssa's face. She hadn't thought about giving Su Yu any extra rewards.
But then, her eyes twinkled, and a beautiful smile spread across her lips.
Alyssa slowly approached Su Yu, stopping just a few centimeters away from him.
Then, she looked up at his face and whispered, "Close your eyes."
"Sure." Su Yu didn't think much of it and closed his eyes.
Alyssa also closed her eyes, tiptoed, and wrapped her arms around Su Yu's neck, leaning in to kiss his lips.
Just as their lips were about 20 centimeters apart, a golden light flashed, and Su Yu was instantly knocked flying by a massive force.
"Your Highness!!!" Tina's furious voice echoed from beside the throne. Her body was enveloped in boiling golden rage, which began to turn black: "Didn't we agree to set aside our differences and focus all our energy on the war? Were you just joking?"
This was a classic case of "only the princess can play with fire, but Tina can't even light a match." It was just too much!
The princess, however, remained calm. She winked at Tina. "I did say we should 'set aside our differences,' but last time it was you who couldn't control yourself. Why can't I have my turn this time?"
"..." Tina's anger faltered for a moment.
Su Yu, standing to the side, couldn't help but twitch his lips. Although he had been hit by Tina's rage, she had controlled her strength well, and he hadn't been hurt at all.
Seeing the situation starting to spiral out of control, he quickly changed the subject. "Let's get back to business! I discovered something significant in Pearl City that could affect the outcome of the war!"
"Oh? What is it?" Alyssa and Tina stopped their hostile stares and turned to look at Su Yu.
"It's about the Lord of Pearl City, Michelle Drake. Based on my observations, I believe she might betray us!" Su Yu's expression turned serious.
He then recounted his experiences in Pearl City and his "predictions" about its future, detailing everything he had seen and heard.
Alyssa and Tina listened intently without interrupting.
After he finished, Alyssa's expression grew grave. "From what you say, Michelle could indeed turn to the rebels. If she betrays us, it will be a major problem!"
She looked at Su Yu. "Counter, thank you for bringing this to our attention."
"You're welcome, it's my duty," Su Yu waved his hand.
"I'll discuss this with my ministers and decide on the next steps."
As she spoke, Alyssa took out a scroll enveloped in intense flames from her spatial ring. "Counter, to thank you for bringing back such important information, this will be your additional reward."
"Thank you, Princess!" Su Yu took the scroll and examined its properties.
Fire Spell Proficiency (Basic)
Passive Skill
- Fire Spell Power +10%
- Fire Spell Critical Rate +5%
- Fire Spell Range +8%
- Proficiency: (0/1000)
Note: Proficiency increases by 1 when a Fire Spell hits a target that is at least 10 levels higher than you.
In Evolution, all third-tier skills for every profession are passive skills. For example, a Mage has 12 third-tier skills: Elemental Proficiency (Fire, Water, Earth, Air), Elemental Affinity (Fire, Water, Earth, Air), and Elemental Resistance (Fire, Water, Earth, Air). These 12 passive skills share a common feature: they all have a proficiency system. Casting spells against monsters of similar levels increases proficiency.
Proficiency is divided into four levels: Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, and Master.
- Basic to Intermediate requires 1000 proficiency points.
- Intermediate to Advanced requires 10,000 proficiency points.
- Advanced to Master requires 100,000 proficiency points.
These passive skill scrolls are already hard to come by, and each skill requires a significant amount of time to grind proficiency. Therefore, most players specialize in one element and minor in another, with very few attempting to master all four.
After receiving the skill scroll, Su Yu bid farewell to the Princess and Tina and left the palace.
At the palace gates, he immediately activated and learned the scroll. The scroll turned to ash in his hand, and several warm streams flowed from his fingertips into his body, rushing into his brain. In an instant, Su Yu felt his understanding of fire spells deepen significantly!
He then tried to use Star Touch to upgrade the skill.
When Star Touch was used on the skill, a game prompt appeared: "Ding, would you like to spend 10 Spirit Coins to purchase 1 skill proficiency point? You can customize the number of points."
Su Yu was slightly taken aback, realizing that upgrading passive skills through Star Touch involved purchasing proficiency points. However, upgrading from Basic to Intermediate required only 1000 proficiency points, which equated to 10,000 Spirit Coins.
This amount was nothing to Su Yu, so he immediately chose to purchase.
"Ding, would you like to purchase 1000 skill proficiency points for 10,000 Spirit Coins?"
"Yes."
"Ding, purchase successful. Your Fire Spell Proficiency (Basic) has been upgraded to Fire Spell Proficiency (Intermediate)."
Fire Spell Proficiency (Intermediate)
Passive Skill
- Fire Spell Power +20%
- Fire Spell Critical Rate +10%
- Fire Spell Range +16%
- Proficiency: (0/10,000)
With the upgrade, the skill's attributes doubled! Su Yu didn't stop there and continued to purchase more proficiency points.
"Ding, would you like to purchase 10,000 skill proficiency points for 100,000 Spirit Coins?"
"Yes."
"Ding, purchase successful. Your Fire Spell Proficiency (Intermediate) has been upgraded to Fire Spell Proficiency (Advanced)."
"Ding, would you like to purchase 100,000 skill proficiency points?"
"Ding, purchase successful. Your Fire Spell Proficiency (Advanced) has been upgraded to Fire Spell Proficiency (Master)."
"Detected that your Fire Spell Proficiency skill has reached the highest level. Would you like to unlock the additional skill—Phoenix Descent?"
