Chapter 91: Eliminating Cecile
Chapter 91: Eliminating Cecile
The AI Blue Whale's processing speed was incredibly fast. Even with complex calculations involving numerous variables, it could produce results in mere milliseconds.
As soon as Su Yu finished speaking, the AI Blue Whale responded, "Just now, I calculated 140 million possible scenarios.
Based on the calculations, there are fewer than 10 events that could save Tina, with a probability of less than one in ten million.
Of these 10 possible events, the one with the highest probability requires your direct action."
"Me? What should I do?" Su Yu asked urgently.
AI Blue Whale: "You once obtained an item that can summon Cecile Nightblade. Do you remember it?"
"Did I? I don't recall it," Su Yu was momentarily stunned.
He quickly ran through the past ten months in his mind and realized he did have it!
The item was a piece of jewelry called the Secret Dagger.
Secret Dagger (Legendary)
- Jewelry
- Trait 1: Your reputation with the Secret Dagger faction is fixed at Adoration.
- Trait 2: Strength +10-30% (up to 2000 points), Agility +10-30% (up to 2000 points). The darker the surrounding light, the higher the bonus.
- Trait 3: When using Backstab, there is a 50% chance to reset the remaining cooldown and increase the damage of the next Backstab by 50% compared to the previous one.
- Trait 4: The duration of Veil of Ambush increases from 15 seconds to 1 minute.
- Trait 5: One-time use. If there are no more than one target of level 80 or higher within 4 kilometers, you can summon Cecile Nightblade to fight for you for two minutes. The item's properties will be disabled after use.
Note: The Secret Dagger is also known as the Emperor's Dagger. If your luck is good enough, you can even achieve infinite Backstab combos, which even god-tier opponents can't withstand.
...
Cecile had personally given him this piece of jewelry as a gift when he ascended to the sixth rank.
The item was exclusive to the Assassin class, so it didn't have much use for him. Its only purpose was to summon Cecile once.
But he had stored it in his backpack and gradually forgotten about it. It wasn't until the AI Blue Whale mentioned it again that he remembered the item.
"Right, I do have this item. How did you know?" Su Yu pulled out a black and white metal badge from the depths of his backpack. The snake pattern carved on it was lifelike.
The AI Blue Whale replied, "I identified it through image comparisons in the database.
When Cecile gave you this item, many players recorded the event. By comparing the videos, I knew it was the top-tier jewelry of the Secret Dagger faction."
"Ah, I see." Su Yu nodded. "But how do I use it? I can't just use it directly, right?"
He had tried over 5,000 summoning items, none of which could summon Cecile. Su Yu didn't think this one would be any different.
"Of course not. You should use it in the real world," the AI Blue Whale answered.
"Use it in the real world..." Su Yu's eyes lit up. He seemed to understand the AI Blue Whale's logic.
The AI Blue Whale continued, "The nearly 6,000 summoning attempts you made in the game were all within the game. Cecile clearly has countermeasures.
However, summoning her in the real world is different from summoning her in the game.
In the real world, the summoning is more forceful. Even if the summoned person is unwilling, they are highly likely to be forcibly summoned.
For example, when you summoned Tina to Skrul, she was wearing a nightgown. At the time, Tina didn't want to be summoned because she thought she should at least put on a coat to meet you. But she couldn't resist the scroll's forceful summon, and she was quickly brought to Skrul.
Therefore, if you use the jewelry to summon Cecile in the real world, the probability of her being summoned is much higher! Additionally, with the combined efforts of high-level players in the game, this method has the highest chance of saving Tina, with a success rate of about 30%."
"Only 30%..." Su Yu's lips twitched.
But he didn't let the probability discourage him. Even with a 0.1% chance, he would put in 100% effort.
He used a Flash Step to reach Xiao Tian's side.
Xiao Tian was startled by his sudden appearance.
She stared at him with wide eyes, "Kexing, what are you going to do?"
"Help me enhance a piece of equipment with gold plating," Su Yu said, handing the ornament and Tina's Blood to Little Tian.
At the same time, he looked at all the high-level beings present and shouted, "Everyone, I need your help with something..."
...
...
The scene shifted to Cecilia in the black water curtain.
According to her current progress, the fusion with Bernina was almost complete.
Bernina was down to her last core, which was barely holding on, and the light it emitted was growing weaker by the second.
If Cecilia could devour this core, she would be able to reunite with her main body in the real world!
"Main body, wait for my good news! I will devour Bernina and complete Lord Dalak's mission," Cecilia thought.
She also noticed that the attacks from the high-level beings outside had significantly weakened.
By the end, almost 90% of them had stopped attacking!
"Are they giving up?
But who cares! Once I complete the fusion with Bernina, I won't stay in this bizarre game world for a second longer!"
With the external threats gradually ceasing, Cecilia didn't hesitate to invest more resources into breaking Bernina's core.
"Once I devour Bernina, I will truly become a genuine god-tier powerhouse! My mission will be a resounding success, and my main body will have accidentally 'picked up' Elizabeth. Lord Dalak will be very pleased!" Cecilia thought with satisfaction.
This plan had been in the works for nearly 50 years, and the one executing it now was her avatar.
Because Bernina had awakened earlier than expected, the plan was initiated ahead of schedule.
As for Elizabeth, she was an unexpected find that Cecilia's main body stumbled upon while carrying out the plan.
When she discovered Elizabeth being besieged, Cecilia extended an olive branch, half-heartedly at first.
But to her surprise, she actually managed to bring Elizabeth under her command!
Elizabeth was a mid-tier god-tier being. Once Lord Dalak learned of her success, he would surely reward her generously!
...
Just as Cecilia was lost in her pleasant thoughts, the situation outside took a sudden turn!
The high-level beings who had stopped attacking had, for some reason, resumed their assault. Spells and attacks rained down like a storm!
She could clearly sense that some of them were even using their most powerful moves!
Faced with this sudden high pressure, Cecilia had no choice but to pause the fusion and refocus on defending against the attacks from above.
"Are these NPCs ever going to stop? If you keep annoying me, I'll come out and kill all of you!" she fumed.
These NPCs couldn't stop her fusion, yet they persisted in harassing her!
She wanted to burst out and slaughter each and every one of them!
But just then, a silver teleportation array appeared beneath her feet.
Cecilia didn't pay much attention to it, as thousands of such arrays had appeared under her feet earlier, and this lone array didn't raise any alarms.
She reached out, intending to destroy it with her black card.
But to her shock, the black card hit the array with a loud "clang," and the array didn't shatter as she expected.
In the next moment, the entire array erupted with an extremely powerful suction force. Silver beams of light locked onto her entire body.
This was, after all, a teleportation array connecting the game world to the real world; it had to have a strong suction force.
Cecilia found herself unable to resist. Before she could even react, she was sucked into the array and transformed into a beam of silver light, disappearing from the game world.
...
In the real world, above the Kosiasko Spring.
Su Yu held his breath after using the skill from the ornament.
Whether he could save Tina depended on this one move!
Although Su Yu was a firm atheist, at this moment, he desperately wished for some higher power to bless him.
"Buddha, Guanyin, Jade Emperor, God, Allah... I implore your protection. Please bring Cecilia out of the game!"
Perhaps his sincerity moved these higher powers, for as soon as the silver teleportation array formed, a large amount of black mist erupted from its center.
Seeing the black mist, Su Yu was initially stunned, then overjoyed!
This black mist was identical to Cecilia's essence and the black mist in the water curtain!
With the black mist already in place, Cecilia was likely to be teleported over!
"Everyone, get ready. We need to ensure this is a one-hit kill!" Su Yu shouted to those behind him.
"Understood." The nine Seventh-stage players and over a hundred Sixth-stage players behind him responded in unison.
Everyone with burst skills activated them, and those with powerful abilities prepared to unleash them, aiming to unleash their full potential to shatter this monster!
Yang Jian, the venerable elder, also readied his trident. The trident burst with a scorching golden light, aimed at the direction of the teleportation array, ready to strike.
Before long, Cecilia's incomplete body was teleported into the real world.
The suction force of the teleportation array was so strong that it completely tore apart the parts of Cecilia's and Bernelina's bodies that were still connected, leaving her a bloody mess when she arrived.
Moreover, her combat power was not as formidable as it was in the game.
Before the plan began, her master, Darak, gave her ten black cards, each possessing power far beyond the peak of divine strength.
However, she had already used up most of these cards in the recent battle.
Two cards were used to fuse with Bernelina, four to defend against external attacks, one to crush the mental force group of the Bad Organization, and the last two to destroy six to seven thousand teleportation arrays.
Now, she had only one black card left, and that card was already partially used.
Additionally, being teleported and having her body torn apart with Bernelina further diminished her strength.
At this point, her power could be described as "barely one-tenth of what it once was."
"Attack!" Su Yu shouted, leading the charge against Cecilia.
He unleashed his most powerful force, and a massive spatial blade cut through the sky, aiming for Cecilia's broken body.
The other players and great cultivators also used their strongest attacks, holding nothing back.
Yang Jian's trident, glowing with a golden light, sliced through the sky, driven by the Eighth and Ninth Mysteries, and almost instantly reached Cecilia.
Cecilia had no choice but to use her last black card to block the overwhelming assault.
However, the output from the Earth's cultivators was far too powerful for a partially used black card to withstand.
After struggling for three minutes, the black card was destroyed by the overwhelming energy, and Cecilia's body was instantly reduced to ashes by the barrage of spells.
However, Cecilia's death in the real world would allow her to revive in the game, similar to Tina.
But those three minutes in the real world equated to 36 minutes in the game world.
During this half-hour, the black water curtain, which had been left unattended, was already dismantled by the game world's divine-level beings, and Bernelina was rescued in time.
After Cecilia's revival, even if she still had ten black cards, it would be too late to change the course of the battle!
...
After killing Cecilia, Su Yu didn't have time to celebrate with the players. He immediately found a safe place, put on his helmet, and entered the game.
Upon entering the game, Bernelina had already been rescued, though her body was still incomplete, and she was in a deep coma.
The Fairy Queen, along with several high-ranking druids, was surrounding her, providing treatment.
As for Cecilia:
Upon her resurrection, she was immediately torn apart by a barrage of spells. This time, no one held back.
Seeing Cecilia being shredded into pieces by the relentless attacks, the high-ranking players in the game finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Earlier, they had almost given up, with Kevin Glast even nearly uttering the word "surrender."
But fortunately, they didn't give up and ultimately succeeded in killing this monster!
As for the loot from killing Cecilia...
The divine-level NPCs suddenly remembered that Cecilia's short blade, which had shattered Bernelina's "Final Water Curtain," was still intact. This blade seemed to be a rare and valuable item!
"Comet," Kevin Glast flew over to Su Yu, "thank you for your plan that helped us successfully kill this monster!"
"Actually, that wasn't my idea," Su Yu smiled. "It was the result of extensive calculations by our planet's AI system to find the most suitable method."
"AI system? What's that?" Kevin Glast was taken aback, having never heard of such a thing.
However, he didn't dwell on it and directly asked, "So, Comet, what do you think we should do with Cecilia's short blade?"
