Chapter 474: Rewards
The final battle took place on the shores of a vast lake, surrounded by towering mountains.
After one hour and five minutes of intense combat, only Su Yu and Snow Leopard remained on the battlefield. The semi-transparent HUD displayed the remaining player count as "2/4110."
At this point, Su Yu's forces controlled the three mountain ranges that housed the Ice, Nature, and Holy Light camps, with 3,258 gold mines under his command. Snow Leopard's forces, on the other hand, held the Shadow and Flame camps, with 2,724 gold mines.
Both players had a substantial number of elite units from each camp.
On Su Yu's side, he had 33 Frost Dragons from the Ice camp, 48 Mountain Giants from the Nature camp, and 27 Holy Angels from the Holy Light camp.
Snow Leopard wasn't far behind, with over a hundred elite units, including 53 Flame Phoenixes and 51 Shadow Wraiths.
Su Yu's gold production was astounding, generating 16,290 gold per second, allowing him to recruit a new elite unit every 1.23 seconds.
Snow Leopard knew that his inferior number of gold mines would only widen the gap if the battle dragged on, so he initiated the final showdown on the lakeshore.
Su Yu, of course, was not afraid and eagerly accepted the challenge.
Over 200 elite units clashed on the lakeshore, the dust and smoke they kicked up covering the five surrounding mountains.
Su Yu's Frost Dragons and Mountain Giants had extremely high health and defenses, with the Holy Angels providing continuous healing, forming an impenetrable barrier.
Snow Leopard's Flame Phoenixes and Shadow Wraiths, while dealing significant damage, found it difficult to break through Su Yu's "meat mountain" formation.
By the third minute of the final battle, Snow Leopard's Flame Phoenixes and Shadow Wraiths had exhausted their mana, while Su Yu's forces still had ample health. At this point, Snow Leopard knew he had lost.
He sighed and recalled his troops, then called out to Su Yu on the other side of the battlefield:
"This round is mine to lose, Kexing. I didn't expect you to be so skilled in command. Could it be that you used to be a professional RTS player like in Red Alert or Warcraft?"
"No, I don't play many RTS games," Su Yu replied. "But I'm Tiana's sparring partner, and she's the best at tactical planning in the game. I've learned a lot from her, and my understanding of high-energy spell-filled battlefields is deeper than yours."
"I see," Snow Leopard said with a regretful smile. "Congratulations on your first place. We'll see you in person later."
With that, Snow Leopard surrendered and left the battlefield.
Su Yu's Frost Dragons and Mountain Giants danced with their massive bodies, celebrating their victory.
Su Yu smiled, feeling a sense of relief after a night of intense battles in the illusion realm.
Just then, a game notification sounded in his ear: "Ding, congratulations on becoming the champion of the final round of the Illusion Duel! You will receive Reward 1: 1 x Ice Camp Building (Golden), 1 x Flame Camp Building (Golden), 1 x Nature Camp Building (Golden), 1 x Holy Light Camp Building (Golden), and 1 x Shadow Camp Building (Golden)."
"You will receive Reward 2: 1 x Elemental Harmony Set (Golden Epic)."
Five beams of golden light, each surrounded by a larger, more brilliant beam, descended from the sky and landed in Su Yu's inventory.
"Five camps?"
"Could it be the kind of camp that can recruit troops?" Su Yu's head was filled with question marks as he hurriedly opened his backpack to check the attributes of the reward he had received.
The icon for the Frost Camp Structure looked very similar to the one he had just used to recruit troops. Su Yu focused his consciousness on the icon, and its attributes immediately appeared:
Frost Camp Structure (Golden)
- Consumable Item
- Usage: Choose a 100x100 flat area free of debris to construct this building. Once the building is successfully constructed, you can spend gold or spirit energy to recruit the troops you need.
- Troop Types:
- Frost Troll Spear Throwers (Tier 3)
- Ice Wing Bats (Tier 3)
- Arctic Shamans (Tier 3)
- Tundra Wolf Riders (Tier 3)
- Winter Mages (Tier 4)
- Frost Dragons (Tier 5)
- Note: This is a consumable item and can only be used once.
Seeing the attributes of this item, Su Yu was instantly delighted.
What a fantastic item!
The "Golden" designation meant that it could be used in the real world. They could construct the camp and spend spirit energy and gold to recruit these powerful troops.
Earth had a substantial gold reserve, and Su Yu was confident that the United Government would be willing to mine a large amount of gold to recruit these powerful units.
Not to mention, those Tier 5 Frost Dragons and Mountain Giants were incredibly strong and could play a significant role on the battlefield against the Skrulls. If they could be exchanged for gold, it would be a huge bargain!
As long as the exchange rate wasn't too unfavorable, humans would definitely be willing to give it a try.
Su Yu nodded in satisfaction and shifted his gaze to the other rewards.
The other camp structure items had similar attributes to the Frost Camp Structure. They could also be used to recruit powerful troops and could be funded with gold and spirit energy.
Su Yu felt a surge of excitement; he was already looking forward to constructing these buildings in the real world!
Just then, a prominent game announcement appeared in Su Yu's field of vision:
"The latest expansion, Empire of the Pandaren, will go live on October 1st at 8:00 AM!"
"We will be performing a server update from October 1st, 1:46 AM to October 1st, 8:00 AM. During this time, you will not be able to access the game. After the update, a new gaming experience will be available! For more details on the new version, please visit the official website."
At the same time, a 3-minute countdown appeared in front of Su Yu's vision.
All players had to log out within 3 minutes, or they would be forcibly disconnected.
"Ah, the familiar expansion is finally here!" Su Yu nodded to himself.
The Empire of the Pandaren expansion was a crucial turning point for humanity's rise.
In this expansion, players could materialize their strength into the real world, which was essential for exploring the game world and honing their skills.
The Pandaren continent's map featured many high-difficulty solo trial dungeons. Many previously average players had soared to greatness through these trials and became the backbone of humanity's resistance against the Skrulls.
Moreover, the Skrulls in this world were more devious than in the previous life. They might even support Earth's surrender factions, offering them benefits to cause chaos.
With over 3,000 spirit energy fountains creating monsters, there were many more challenges to come.
Su Yu shook his head and, in the final three minutes, turned his attention to the second reward from the event—the Elemental Harmony Set.
