Chapter 108: 108. [A Love-Filled Letter) 1
Translator: 549690339
“This can’t exactly be called ‘[Overwhelming Pressure]’ anymore, I’d rather call ita ’25x Earth God Shield!!”
Looking at the giant number “-13266” and the Jade Demon Statue shattered on the ground, Su Yu cracked a satisfied smile.
After [Earth’s Shield] was advanced to legendary quality, like other spells, it gained the ability to “charge.”
[Magic Bullet] can be charged up to 20 tis, with the damage increasing from 300% spell power to 6000% spell power.
[Earth’s Shield] is a shield type skill and can charge a bit more, up to 25 tis.
The original attributes of [Earth’s Shield] were:
[Earth’s Shield (Epic)]: Uses earth elents to condense a shield around you, absorbs 400% spell strength worth of damage. Physical damage taken is reduced by 20%. Instant, lasts for 60 seconds, cooldown ti is 60 seconds, and uses 30 mana points.
Su Yu’s spell strength is 178. When charged 25 tis, the shield value of [Earth’s Shield] reached a whopping 17800 points!
Under the characteristics of [Overwhelming Pressure], all the shield value was converted into damage at once, swiftly killing the sa level boss in one hit!
Of course, there were many drawbacks behind this powerful attack.
For example, the casting ti was long, and the consumption was great. To unleash a 25 tis charged [Earth Shield], at least 15 seconds of casting ti and 750 mana points are needed.
If it were in an arena match, the opponent wouldn’t foolishly wait for Su Yu to cast a spell for 15 seconds. This move definitely wouldn’t be possible to use.
Plus, the consumption of 750 mana points was too high. After using this move, it would affect his continuous combat ability later.
So this could only be used as a secret weapon, not as a regular attack thod.
But in any case, Su Yu was very satisfied with this attack. What could be more fulfilling than being able to one-shot a boss of his level?
After the [Jade Golem] fell, Su Yu happily walked up, brushed aside the jade shards on the ground, and picked up the boss’s drop.
The boss’s loot was very generous:
Plate mail gloves [Blue Stone (Rare) Iv21], Bow [Green Wind (Excellent) lv21], Skill Scroll [Thunderfall Skill (Normal)], Skill Scroll [Bone Piercing (Normal)], Material (Jade Core (Excellent)] x1.
Among these, [Bone Piercing] is a skill for assassin classes.
[Thunderfall Skill] is a first-tier spell for mage’s lightning series, which Su Yu didn’t know yet. So, after getting the scroll, he directly used it and spent 666660 spiritual energy coins to upgrade it to legendary quality.
[Thunderfall Skill (Legendary)]: Summons a thunderbolt to fall from the sky, causing great damage to the target.
Compared to the zero-tier [Lightning Bolt], the damage of [Thunderfall Skill] is about twice as much, but it has a cooldown of 3 seconds. It can be used as a main damage output spell in the future.
After killing the [Jade Golem], the exit of the secret passage was close at hand.
Su Yu drank several [dium Mana Potions] to restore his mana.
After his mana was filled, he activated [Invisibility Skill] and walked out from the secret passage exit.
Coming out from the secret passage, Su Yu entered Duke’s manor.
The Duke’s manor was vast, encompassing dozens of various buildings within.
Cautionary of avoiding patrol guards, Su Yu made his way to the most luxurious building in the center of the complex.
This should be the Duke’s usual residence.
The manor’s guards noticed so activity in the underground chessboard, but they didn’t mind it too much.
The Lord was known to move chess pieces to please the favoured ladies, and the chessboard maintenance often created noises. Therefore, they did not notice Su Yu’s intrusion.
Su Yu progressed smoothly, successfully entered the main building, and arrived in the Duke’s study on the second floor.
The study was about 40 square ters, not too spacious, but was extravagantly decorated. Nurous master artworks hung from the walls and a slight scent of violets wafted from the leather luxury chair.
Su Yu moved lightly and patiently began searching through the bookshelf and desk drawers.
anwhile, he also kept an eye on the surrounding walls for any hidden compartnts often favored by the nobles for hiding their belongings.
The search went very smoothly.
Two minutes later, Su Yu located a hidden compartnt in the east wall.
Displayed inside the compartnt was not the evidence of the Duke colluding with Wind Chi Empire, but a ring made of platinum, inset with a black gemstone the size of a rice grain.
[Black Star]
rung
Luxury Item
Description: High-class jeweler Vielomi created this black gemstone ring to please a noble lady, worth 50,000 spiritual energy coins – Goblin rchant Buffet.
Playing with the ring in his hand, Su Yu nodded subtly.
This ring was not a player’s equipnt, but a high-value luxury item that could be traded to NPCs for a large sum of money.
anwhile, Su Yu also had a revelation.
It seed that the 15th task reward in the princess questline wasn’t just 1000 experience points, “exploring the Duke’s study” could also be considered part of the reward.
Su Yu tossed the ring into his backpack and continued searching around the study.
Another 5 minutes later, Su Yu found a well-packaged letter sandwiched in a book called “Sll of Won. [A Letter Full of Affection]
Quest Item
Description: A correspondence between Duke Anzu Seifer and Prince Gaven IV of Demacia State in the Wind Chi Empire, seems to conceal a big secret.
“This should be the quest item that the princess wanted, but why is it ‘full of affection’?” Su Yu didn’t understand the prefix of the letter.
Two big n, full of affection how!
He really wanted to open the letter.
But the letter was sealed with a special spell, so he couldn’t open it.
He could only temporarily toss it into his backpack for now.
With the mission item at hand, the 15th task in the princess questline was considered complete.
Next, he just needs to go back the way he ca and deliver the letter to Princess Alyssa.
But Su Yu didn’t want to leave so easily.
According to the [Black Star] and his ga experience from his previous life, Duke Seifer’s study should be a ‘Treasury’ -like place. The longer he stays here, the higher the value of the items he will find.
Of course, the price he pays for staying here is that he could be discovered and fail the mission at any ti.
But looking at the [Random Teleport Scroll] in his backpack, Su Yu suddenly gained confidence.
If he were to be discovered, he could teleport away imdiately, fearless!
Entering Duke Seifer’s study is a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity, not to be missed!
Having thought this through, Su Yu didn’t leave. but continued searching in the study.
anwhile, at Wolf Howl Castle five kiloters northwest of the manor.
Duke Anzu Seifer sat in a secret room’s giant leather chair sorting out files, preparing for tomorrow’s negotiations.
The faint candlelight shone on him, casting a less than robust shadow on the wall.
Suddenly, the Duke seed to sense sothing. He lifted his head, his sharp gaze sweeping towards the southeast.
Duke Seifer set down the docunts in his hand and walked out of the secret chamber.
“Lake?”
“Master.”A warrior clad in light armor knelt before the Duke.
“You go to the southern manor. I suddenly sensed the presence of a bug.”
“Your order!”
The light armor warrior took his orders and left..
