Chapter 341: Legendary Talent - Tina Garcia
Chapter 341: Legendary Talent - Tina Garcia
"By the way, Tina, what are your plans after we settle things in the Western Continent and the princess is crowned as the emperor?" Su Yu asked.
From his previous life's memories, he recalled that Tina had retired to Noland Village after helping the princess win the war. She continued to run her "Morning Song General Store," occasionally giving quests to players while taking care of her aging father.
But the story in this life had veered off in a different direction, and Su Yu wasn't sure what kind of life Tina wanted.
"Well," Tina tapped her chin with her index finger, "if it were before, I would have wanted to retire to Noland Village and take care of my father. But now..."
Tina looked at the man in front of her.
"What are your plans now?" Su Yu felt a bit uncomfortable under Tina's gaze and rubbed his nose. "Do you want to continue being the Grand Marshal of the empire or perhaps become a lord with a vast territory?"
"Neither," Tina winked at Su Yu. "To be honest, I don't have much interest in power or money. Being a Grand Marshal or a lord is too exhausting and not at all enjoyable."
Tina turned to look at the nearby waterfall, her eyes filled with longing. "In the days to come, I want to take my father and sister on a world tour, to see the beautiful sights around the world. When we get tired..."
Tina reached out her small hand to Su Yu. "Would you allow me to settle in your territory?"
"Ding! Legendary Talent [Tina Garcia] wants to join your territory. Do you accept?"
Su Yu ignored the game notification, stood up, and took Tina's hand. "Tina, I would be honored if you settled in my territory. Your father and sister are also welcome. As long as I live, Aupsi City will always have a place for you!"
"Thank you," Tina's face turned a delicate shade of red, and she moved closer to Su Yu, giving him a gentle hug.
Then, she took out a badge-like object from her spatial ring and placed it in his hand.
"What is this?" Su Yu looked at the item Tina had given him.
"This was made by Master Sharan at my request," Tina brushed her hair aside and said softly, "If I really do travel the world, I will be far away from you. Your world is facing an interdimensional invasion, and there might be times when you need my help. If that day comes, remember to use this badge to contact me, and I will return immediately."
"Ding! You have received [Tina Garcia]'s gift: [Interdimensional Communication Badge] x1."
[Interdimensional Communication Badge]
- Special Item
- Usage: Input magic power into the badge.
- Usage Limit: N/A
- Effect: [Tina Garcia] will receive a message when you input magic power and will know your coordinates.
- Note: Sharan Global Communication, reliable and trustworthy! (Not a sponsored ad)
Looking at the badge that Tina had specially commissioned for him, Su Yu felt a warm feeling in his heart. Tina really cared about him.
"Tina, thank you."
"No need to thank me," Tina smiled and pressed her index finger to Su Yu's lips. "If you really want to thank me, then focus on winning the interdimensional invasion. Promise me you won't die on the battlefield."
"Don't worry, I'll be careful," Su Yu held Tina's hand and made a solemn promise.
"Thank you," Tina snuggled into Su Yu's chest, wrapped her arms around his waist, and didn't let go for a long time.
Time seemed to stand still in that moment, except for the constant roar of the waterfall.
But the moment didn't last long.
Soon, Su Yu received a private message from Snow Leopard: "It's been half an hour. Shouldn't you be coming back?"
Su Yu: “.”
Snow Leopard: “It’s not that I’m rushing you [cute pout emoji], but most players’ inventories are already full. If you don’t return soon, the work here will grind to a halt.”
Su Yu: “[sigh emoji] Alright, I’ll head back.”
He closed the private chat window and looked down at Tina in his arms. “Tina, let’s head back now. The road ahead is long.”
“Sure.” Tina nodded.
Hand in hand, the two of them flew toward the capital of Lumen.
During this time, players had become quite proficient at "raiding" thanks to extensive practice.
For example, Snow Leopard initially needed to call on a Holy Domain powerhouse to forcibly break magical locks. Now, he could open them with the experience he had accumulated. His druid class had taken on a distinctly rogue-like feel.
The efficiency of the players' raids was impressive. In just two hours, the Lumen royal palace was completely stripped of any valuable items, leaving nothing for the Lumen king.
Su Yu arrived at the center of the palace to collect the loot.
After the players handed over their spoils, the task progress bar showed “231.2 billion” Psychic Coins!
The sight made Su Yu almost tempted to run away with the loot! However, he had completed his mission, and it was time to report back to the princess.
“Antonidas, is your mana fully restored?” Su Yu asked, turning to Antonidas, who had been following him.
“Almost,” Antonidas nodded. “We can leave for Golden Fleur City anytime, but...”
“But what?”
“I can’t take as many people as you requested.” Antonidas looked troubled. “I can easily bring back 10,000 interdimensional adventurers and take you and Tina with no problem, but if I have to take everyone, it’s beyond my capabilities.”
He then gazed enviously at the [Chain of the Golden Fleur Plane] hanging from Su Yu’s neck. “If you could lend me this necklace for a day, if my strength breaks through, I might be able to bring everyone back.”
“Not a chance!” Su Yu immediately refused and took off the necklace, stowing it in his backpack.
Antonidas was currently at the peak of the Sixth Rank. If he broke through, he would be a Seventh Rank powerhouse. If he then became immune to the princess’s [Soul Enslavement Contract] and took the necklace, Emperor Lain would gain over 200 billion Psychic Coins and a Seventh Rank strongman. He would probably laugh in his sleep!
Though the probability was low, even a one-in-ten-thousand chance was too risky for Su Yu.
“If you take me and Tina, how many interdimensional adventurers can you bring back at most?” Su Yu asked.
“8,000 at most!” Antonidas answered quickly.
“8,000...” Su Yu rubbed his chin.
This was a bit of a problem.
No matter which players were left behind or chose to step aside, they would likely feel unhappy.
But Su Yu quickly came up with another solution: If he couldn’t bring everyone, then he wouldn’t bring anyone at all. That way, it would be fair.
He opened the guild chat and posted a message: “I’ve decided to settle the rewards for this mission early. Players who completed the mission can come to me with their points to claim their Psychic Coin rewards. After receiving their rewards, they can choose to return home or stay in the Western Continent to continue exploring.”
“By the way, the Western Continent’s map has just been opened, and there are many high-reward hidden quests yet to be discovered. Don’t miss out on the opportunities!”
