Revive Rome: Wait! Why not make the empress fall in love with me first? Chapter 807: 16: The Deceleration Plan Proceeds Smoothly

Chapter 807: Chapter 16: The Deceleration Plan Proceeds Smoothly

Inside Fire Island.

“Strange.” Aske felt quite puzzled because the progress of the Acceleration Plan was not as smooth as usual.

The fastest in leveling up is Nora, who currently possesses the four skills: [Cell Division], [Selective Heritage], [High-frequency Mutation], and [Reverse Transcription Injection]. She has completed Law Embodint and specialized in [Cell Division], steadily reaching Level 16.

Next is Eleanor, who currently possesses the four skills: [Unyielding Will], [Light Flow], [Judgent], and [Will Armor]. After completing Law Embodint, she specialized in the first three and has reached Level 18. By realizing one more new skill to reach Level 19, she can start attempting to break through to the Demigod Rank.

After that cos Thira, who currently possesses the four skills: [Tornado], [Star Fall], [Earthquake], and [Heavy Rain]. She has just completed Law Embodint, advancing to Level 15.

Nothing else.

How could there be nothing else? Aske was perplexed.

dea, Sigrdrifa, Miel, Mia, what about your upgrade progress?

According to the recent team reports, Miel and dea should have just completed Law Embodint, advancing to Level 15. However, they were forrly Level 14, while Thira was only Level 12 at that ti. How did Thira level up 3 levels, yet you only leveled up 1?

Sigrdrifa and Mia have just advanced to Level 14 and haven’t started embodint yet… Too slow, just too slow!

To Aske’s question, dea confidently responded:

“…Squad Leader, realizing skills isn’t sothing we can just choose to do. Laws are, after all, a matter of mind, which depend a lot on the state. Isn’t it normal to occasionally hit a low period?”

“But the others…” Aske still didn’t believe it.

“Others are others, and we are us.” dea playfully replied, “Besides, why bla us for slow leveling? Why not say Nora and the others are leveling too fast?”

Aske: ???

Damn it, suddenly not knowing how to refute.

“Aske, I completely understand your anxiety.” dea reached out a hand, placing it on Aske’s chest, smiling as she said, “But could you give us a little confidence, alright?”

“Alright…” Aske responded helplessly.

He sulkily turned around to leave, but after a few steps, he suddenly felt sothing was off.

Why does it feel like he was tricked?

After Aske left, the four girls gathered together again, chattering away.

“I wonder if what we’re doing is right.” Little Mia said with so guilt, “What if he finds out later…”

Little Mia, real level 17, has mastered four skills: [Black Hole], [Twist], [Space Affinity], [Dinsion Storm], specializing in the first two.

“Just say it was a recent sudden epiphany!” dea quickly said.

dea, real level 18, has mastered four skills: [Mind Line], [Parasitic Seed], [Spirit Explosion], [Weaving Dreams], specializing in the first three.

“Alright!” Sigrdrifa said nonchalantly, “We all agree to say it was a simultaneous epiphany then?”

Sigrdrifa, real level 15, has mastered [Slaughter], [Silent Annihilation], [Malicious Locking], and… [Killing Intent Shock].

What kind of thing is [Killing Intent Shock]? Not to ntion Aske, even dea and Miel, who know about it, don’t understand why Sigrdrifa wanted to learn such a thing from her future self. Its only function is to knock out the opponent with tangible killing intent.

“Because it’s cool.” Sigrdrifa bluntly said when questioned by dea, “I can then say: I haven’t even exerted myself, how co you’ve already fallen?”

dea: …

If Aske knew, he’d probably let you fall directly.

“That’s actually not important.” Miel said, “If Aske knew our real levels, his first reaction would likely be happiness as it ans getting closer to returning, not holding us accountable.”

Miel, also Level 18, has mastered [Mirror Image Duplication], [State Covering], [Destiny], and [Information Shock], already specializing in the first three skills.

Level 15, Level 17, Level 17, Level 18, although still not matching the others, it wasn’t too far behind. More importantly, as long as everyone pretended to intentionally stay put, even if the others all beca Demigods, they still have to stop and wait for them.

Thus, Aske’s grand plan for return is essentially in the hands of these four girls.

…

Main Plane, Hero Harbor in a storm.

The morning involved advancing levels in the Acceleration Plan, while the afternoon was training to adapt to ocean environnts.

“In near-sea environnts during stormy weather, you need a three-dinsional combat ability.” Aske explained to everyone, “The so-called three-dinsional combat ability can ultimately be summarized by two paths.”

“One is flight, where you possess a three-dinsional high mobility, able to dive into the sea or soar into the sky at any ti;”

“The other is ranged attack. While you can’t fly, staying on land lets you easily attack enemies in the sea or sky.”

Mm-hmm, the girls started probing their own ability systems and discovered that apart from Sigrdrifa and dea, the rest could all fly.

Of course, if considering flying combat, Peggy should be excluded as well, because Peggy requires transforming into a bat to fly, and in bat form, she can’t use her Law Skills and Undead Illusion Sword.

This ans when she’s flying, she can’t fight, and when fighting, she can’t fly, which is sowhat like the so-called “dragon cavalry,” also known as “cavalry on foot,” which doesn’t truly count as cavalry.

Apart from these three, Eleanor’s incarnation as Light Flow, Nora’s wing-growing, Thira’s wind and gravity manipulation, Mia’s Ripple Sword flashing everywhere, and Miel’s transformation into a Banshee Queen all facilitate flexible combat during flight.

Thus, Aske took these five girls away from Hero Harbor for actual combat training in the nearby waters. A dejected Peggy stayed with dea and Sigrdrifa on the shore, going through boring long-range tactics confrontation.

“Actually, I can fly too.” Sigrdrifa sneakily said in the Mind Channel, “After Law Embodint, advancing to Level 15, I can now summon lower-level Northern Thunderbirds with the Navian Bone Tooth and fly on them.”

“Flying mount, is it?” dea chuckled faintly.

“Why not, I’ll summon one and give it to you?” Sigrdrifa laughed.

“Sounds good.” dea perked up, “Can I choose the color?”

“There’s gray, light blue, and white ones.” Sigrdrifa said, as though listing clothing styles.

“I’ll take a white Thunderbird.” dea replied.

On a hill in the distance, Naga Priest Larrycos stood at the top, looking thoughtfully at the three girls practicing below.
