Chapter 254: 254, Promote to Level 4! _1
Translator: 549690339
On July 4, 21 years later, also the fifth day after Su Yu’s promotion to the third rank.
At two o’clock that afternoon, gamers in the various leveling areas turned to look at the leaderboard, focusing their attention on the name in the top spot, [Nemesis].
The current second place on the leaderboard was no longer [A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated].
After travelling to the Empire of Pandamen, A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated missed many field campaigns, not receiving the large amount of experience points from the campaign rewards and consequently fell out of the top 100.
In second place on the list was [Snow Leopard], at level 27.
Then came [Sky Dragon], level 26.
[Ice Red Tea], level 26.
[Delicious Butter Bread], level 26.
The progress of the leading group was much faster than in the previous life, and they would soon reach the level cap of the first expansion — level 29, then they’d save experience points to wait for the next version update.
But Su Yu, in first place, was on an entirely different level.
Su Yu is now at level 59, and according to the forum players’ records, five hours have passed since he leveled up to 59.
Based on time projection, he was about to advance again soon!
Su Yu’s promotion has always been a focal point within the game, so amidst leveling and monster farming, players would occasionally glance at the leaderboard, anticipating another jump in that figure.
Time passed by every second.
Finally, at 2:06 in the afternoon, the number “59” suddenly jumped to “60”.
“Ohhhhhh!”
“Boss Ke is finally at level 60!”
“It’s been 5 days, 3 hours, 12 minutes and 29 seconds since Boss Ke reached level 50. Now I declare, Boss Ke has successfully advanced again!”
“Congratulations, Boss Ke!”
There were cheers in the various leveling areas. Su Yu’s successful promotion was even more exciting than their own promotions!
In Su Yu’s Mage Tower in Aphi city.
Boom!
Along with a muffled noise, Su Yu’s clothes, unable to withstand the pressure, were all torn apart by the blast of magic power.
When he advanced to the third rank five days ago, his clothes had already been ripped open by the magic power surge. This time, the magic power fluctuation of the breakthrough was even greater, causing all his equipment, except for the two legendary items, to be completely destroyed as their durability hit zero.
He was left stark naked.
“Ah!”
Upon seeing this, little loli Kathy immediately covered her eyes, turned her head away, and her little face turned beet red.
Su Yu also blushed.
Luckily, he was facing away from the little loli. If he had been facing her the consequences would’ve been unthinkable.
He quickly pulled out a spare robe from his Space Ring and put it on, feeling a bit more secure.
After advancing to the fourth rank, Su Yu’s current strength is close to that of his past life.
In his previous life, Su Yu was a fourth-rank mage at level 64, but that was the result of six months of effort. In this life, it has taken him just over a month.
Once he learns all the skills and collects a full set of fourth-rank equipment, his strength will even exceed that of his past life due to the large number of legendary skills and legendary equipment.
This stirred quite a few sentiments in Su Yu.
After his promotion, as was his habit, Su Yu first checked his attribute panel.
His attribute panel now reads:
Character: [Nemesis]
Level: lv60
Profession: Mage
Bloodline: [Star Bloodline (Legendary)]
Attributes:
Strength: 202, Agility: 224, Intelligence: 410, Constitution: 186, Luck: 10
Spell Strength: 510
Hit Points: 53045
Mana Points: 75450
Defense: 236
Spell Critical Hit Rate: 15%
Speed: 10
Experience Points: 1356/210000
Fortune: 4614784698 spiritual energy coins
Equipment: [Naya Hourglass (Golden Legend)], [Advanced Scholar’s Badge (Golden Legend)], [Nobleman’s Lightweight Robe (Common)]
Skills: [Magic Missile (Rank 0)], [Ice Arrow (Rank 0)] [Phoenix’s Flame (Rank 2)].
Su Yu’s attributes have spanned many versions. When he was at the first rank, his HP was only a few hundred points, but now his bare HP is as high as 50,000!
His speed has reached 10 points, the speed at which he can walk is faster than a normal person can run at full speed.
Most notable of course, is the spiritual energy coins.
Burning materials to increase strength is very fast, but the resources consumed are unimaginable.
From second rank to fourth rank, he burned monster materials worth more than 60 million spiritual energy coins.
The remaining two billion plus of monster material is either in the territory warehouse or in the warehouses of the “relevant departments”.
However, according to Su Yu’s estimates, if all the spiritual energy coins are converted into monster materials and burned, combined with the high-ranking materials obtained from the princess and Tina, it will probably be enough to burn him close to the peak of the sixth rank.
At that time, all his spiritual energy coins will be completely burned up, and he will have to find ways to make more money.
Now that he has successfully promoted, Su Yu decided not to continue burning materials to enhance his level.
The third stage of the main plot is now open, it would be better to complete all the tasks from the third stage first!
Seeing Su Yu got dressed, little loli Kathy turned her pitiful face and asked, “Lord, you won’t continue to practice, will you?”
In the past week, Kathy has been in charge of transporting, sorting, and throwing the materials into the mana pool as requested by Su Yu, without any rest at all.
Even though she is a fourth-rank mage, she is exhausted and doesn’t want to continue burning materials.
Su Yu walked to Kathy’s side, gently rubbed her head, “No need for now, I’ll be going away for a while Kathy, thank you for your hard work during this time!”
“No hardship.” Kathy smiled, “Lord, you have saved us, me and my father, from worrying about livelihood, and endowed us with such formidable power, I can’t be thankful enough, how could I feel it hard?”
“Very good,” Su Yu nodded satisfactorily: “Then how about we burn materials for another month before I leave.”
Kathy’s smile froze on her face.
“Just kidding,” Su Yu rubbed Kathy’s head again, “I’m leaving now. Kathy, go to Swift and collect 100,000 spiritual energy coins as a reward for your hard work.”
“100,000?!” Kathy was taken aback, “Isn’t that too much?”
“Not at all, you deserve it,” Su Yu smiled.
After bidding farewell to Kathy, Su Yu summoned Dima and headed to the teleportation formation in the city center.
After he advanced to the fourth rank, in fact, his speed was now much faster than Dima’s, he could even fly in the sky for a short period.
But considering Dima’s days are limited, he might not see it after he advances to the fifth rank, and since he doesn’t have much of a time constraint now, Su Yu decided to ride Dima a bit more.
Walking down the city’s main street, players along the way saw his figure, their eyes lit up and they all greeted him.
Su Yu also waved back at the players.
Dima trotted forward and finally stepped onto the teleportation formation leading to Orleans City.
