Chapter 1372: Chapter 1372

While experimenting, Du You also compared his other skills. He already had quite a few large-scale skills.

Destruction Flames need not be mentioned; as a Super Tier Skill, its power is truly terrifying, unmatched by any other skill.

Devouring Swamp, on the other hand, is a large-scale environmental type skill with strong binding abilities. Its most important effect is to change the terrain, creating trouble for enemies or entangling them.

However, against opponents of the same tier, this skill is not very effective.

The Hellfire Spider is similar, a trap type skill that also has little effect on peers of the same tier.

But the Dark Flame Arrow Array is different; this skill overlaps too heavily in its wide-area usage with the Shadow Spirit Light Ball.

Du You continued to train while discerning the differences between the two skills. Eventually, Du You concluded that the Shadow Spirit Light Ball is originally intended for facing a few enemies, splitting into several to attack, which might provide good results. However, splitting it too much consumes a significant amount of Magic Power. The Dark Flame Arrow Array is different; being a wide-range attack to begin with, it doesn’t consume much when executed at full strength.

One skill focuses on a single entity, the other on a group.

Moreover, during group attacks, the Dark Flame Arrow Array proves more powerful, as each attack range of the Shadow Spirit Light Ball has a radius of 0.8 miles. When spread out, its overall range is larger, but its attack power is not as great.

Thus, if cleaning up a large number of minor monsters, the Shadow Spirit Light Ball would be more effective, but such cannon fodders generally don’t need cleaning up.

Facing a large-scale low-tier enemy with some strength, the Dark Flame Arrow Array would be a better choice. Du You wouldn’t have to make do with using Dark Flame Arrow Array as a substitute for single-target Magic anymore.

While Du You trained with the new skills, his wristwatch had also exchanged for him.

Upon opening the wristwatch, Du You logged into the sixth tier of the Magic Network. Of course, this was after Du You returned to Earth; in the Other World, this type of wristwatch wouldn’t function unless in a world completely controlled by Earth.

Besides, Du You also needed to return and refine new skills with his two sisters, especially since they had just leveled up.

Du You, looking at the tasks and items on the Magic Network, felt a myriad of emotions. Before and after joining the battlefield, it was like two entirely different worlds; everything inside was different.

After joining, the Magic Network had an internal trading area with many items available, including rare high-tier equipment. Unfortunately, Du You and his companions have been rapidly advancing, and now their requirements for equipment weren’t high. Weapons alone would suffice; the rest didn’t matter much.

After all, the truly good items wouldn’t just be casually sold; they were for personal use.

There were also those tasks and hidden worlds, all under the frontier worlds controlled by Earth.

The lowest of these frontier worlds was tier seven, while the highest could even contain tier nine worlds. Originally, Du You thought Earth was a tier nine world, the highest possible tier. The source of this content ɪs 𝗻𝗼𝘷𝗲𝗹•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥

But now, Du You realized that even other tier nine worlds could be used as battlegrounds and be occupied, suggesting that Earth might be higher than he imagined. Not tier nine, but a tier ten world unknown to outsiders.

Of course, these were just Du You’s speculations; he didn’t actually know what was going on.

On the flip side of the Magic Network, Du You could see many team information, including many tier-seven Professionals. He hadn’t seen any tier-eight Du You yet but believed they occasionally appeared.

Outside, the legendary tier sevens, even unseen by Earth, were numerous here, creating an impression that tier sevens were common due to their abundance. Of course, this was just an illusion; tier seven was still a god-like level, known as God Slayers, capable of killing Divine Spirits.

Similarly, this place operated on a ten-year unit, where certain tasks must be completed within ten years to accumulate sufficient points, else someone would be held accountable.

These matters were directly written on the billboards. In the past, some unfortunate ones who didn’t comply ended up clearly understanding their fate.

These people either got caught and were forced to sign slavery contracts, turning into tools of war, or were killed, and their bodies left behind to be made into special weapons to continue fighting for Earth.

The better-off might have the backing of other strong powers, and might need to compensate through a large number of tasks within a short period, but their reputation would be ruined here.

Of course, the so-called backing of major forces must at least involve tier eight powerhouses; mere tier sevens counted for nothing. Tier seven powerhouses trying to guarantee such matters had no qualifications, and the inspection team would not give face.

Du You checked his current status; after this battle, the points he obtained were still pretty good. And there were still over five years until the next review.

Since he joined the first period, the points from this time could afford to be delayed; cushioning for a while didn’t matter.

But Du You didn’t want to delay; when the opportunity arose, he would complete tasks, at least to secure himself from worries. The power behind him was much stronger than the overt Five Alliances.

He even suspected that the so-called five alliances might just be concocted by those powerful entities backstage. Deliberately split into five different alliances, making people hostile to each other, using the sense of crisis to stimulate Professionals to grow quickly. Think about it; if Earth were peaceful, it probably wouldn’t have cultivated so many robust Professionals.

Professionals and ordinary people were from two different worlds; looking at it now, common Professionals and those joining Earth’s frontline were also from two different worlds. Du You remembered the rules he signed before clearly.

He must keep it secret; this information cannot be leaked. If there’s a chance, he should also guide some people to join the battlefield, with each person passing the test counted as points for Du You, likely the same for the academy.

There are also rules for occupying worlds; if a world has a tier seven powerhouse, Du You must withdraw and cannot establish territory there. The same applies when he reaches tier seven.

Because if tier seven powerhouses discover that Earth’s humans have invaded a world and established territory there, they also could not build territories. This rule is to nurture Earth’s descendants; everyone naturally complies.

Those who didn’t abide by the agreements, are now nowhere to be seen.
