Chapter 619: Chapter 619
It was normal for the domineering Snow Emperor to ignore him. Du You should have thought about this earlier. He had assumed that since the Snow Emperor had been dead for so many years, he wouldn’t have so many schemes at play.
Facts proved that in the Other World, one always needs to be cautious, regardless of the circumstances.
Du You ran down the mountain with the two sisters at a quick pace. This place was no longer safe for them to stay.
The original illusion on the top of the mountain had completely disappeared, replaced by a vast expanse of ruins, ruins that were from who knows how many years ago. Most were buried deep beneath the ice and snow, protected only by the special magic array of this place.
Without the power of the Snow Emperor to protect it, this site would have been reduced to nothing over the thousands of years.
The group hurriedly made their way down to the middle of the mountain, almost making it all the way down. But at this moment, powerful fluctuations suddenly erupted from a distance, causing Du You’s expression to change.
It seemed he didn’t have the opportunity to sightsee in the city of the Professionals anymore. From a distance, Du You could feel the power of the fluctuations, which indicated a third-tier individual had made their appearance. If more time were to pass, even a fourth or fifth-tier might appear.
The reason they hadn’t arrived at his location was that they were in a standoff. The fluctuations Du You felt resulted from their residual battle energy. This was a warning to Du You - he couldn’t delay any longer.
Suddenly, Du You spotted a small mountain cave nearby and called out to the two sisters, "Quick, let’s get in there."
With that, Du You was the first to enter the small mountain cave. It was very narrow inside, and everyone had to bend over to walk. Du You quickly took out the bones of the Snow Emperor and hid them deeper in the cave, and then he punched through the wall. The collapsing stones and mud thoroughly blocked off the interior of the cave.
"Let’s go." Sensing the battle energy rapidly approaching, Du You quickly submitted the mission.
The three of them instantly disappeared, transforming into Spirit Energy Particles. The red Spirit Energy Particles spread around and quickly turned green before being completely absorbed by a vortex.
Upon reappearing in the school, Du You and the two sisters were formed from green Spirit Energy Particles.
"Finally, I’ve managed to break through." Du You was filled with joy. Although the reason for entering this world was to rescue Xi Qianxue, Du You still successfully achieved his target.
A third-tier Colonist would usually take until the seventh or eighth grade for students to achieve. Some people even remained unable to reach the status of a third-tier Colonist by the tenth grade. Those people cannot graduate.
Du You’s current level may not allow him to graduate early, but it certainly guaranteed a successful graduation in a few years. If he wanted, he could even skip a few grades now. However, in such a school for Professionals, skipping grades was essentially useless.
Exiting the World Boat, the place was empty. Xi Qianxue had left a while ago and the student council and the Black Water Club members were not around either. The entire room was silent. Only a few people were still using the World Boat. Without disturbing the others, Du You opened the door to the World Boat, led the two sisters out, and left the place.
On the way back from school, the time spent in the Other World wasn’t long, but the experience was intensive. Since there wasn’t much to deal with this time, they decided to just go home and rest.
Upon returning home, Du You immediately started to upgrade his level. Since his Dark Magic Power Skill reached Level 23, his personal level also needed to hit Level 23 for optimal control. Read complete versıon only at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝕟𝕖𝕥
With this level, his rewards wouldn’t diminish when hunting third-tier creatures. If he continued upgrading, he would advance to the middle period of Colonist. Too much leveling up right after a breakthrough could lead to more loss than gain.
"It’s a pity that I can’t refine the Aura Skill for now. I can only upgrade the level first. Fortunately, I have enough Crystal Coins."
It would take several hundred Crystal Coins to upgrade his own level and the level of the two sisters. Besides him, there should be no one else who has just broken through who could even afford this. These Crystal Coins were to be prepared by themselves.
After a series of upgrades, Du You brought both his and his skill levels up to 23. As he leveled up, his power also improved tremendously, making Du You slightly uncomfortable.
"I need to upgrade all the skills. The burden is getting heavier. It’s no wonder that a lot of people in the end only choose to upgrade the skills they use the most and give up those useful skills they rarely use." Even someone as wealthy as Du You was feeling the strain. It was easy to imagine what it was like for the other ordinary Professionals.
After the breakthrough, it was time to switch out his equipment.
Illusion Feather Cloak: 27 Defense, 28 Magic Resistance. It can transform into wings for slow air travel. They allow a smooth descent when jumping from a high altitude. (Dark green)
Ring of Magic Spirit: Increases Magically Infused Attack power by 25, Spelling speed by 20%, and reduces Magic Energy consumption by 10%. (Green)
He could now equip two green items that he had previously been unable to equip. The Illusion Feather Cloak conveniently replaced his previous Hunting Dog Cloak, which he gave to Lin Yushi.
Even though the Hunting Dog Cloak was practically not catching up with their power, cloak-type equipment was very rare, so it was better than nothing.
As for the Ring of Magic Spirit, it replaced the Magic Gathering Ring. The Magic Gathering Ring was useless for him, but as equipement for Spellcasters, it was still valuable in the market. He decided to sell it.
Unfortunately, at the moment, he could only sell it for Red Crystal Coins, which will be used to develop his territory.
"Equipment is indeed hard to come by. It’s embarrassing that I’m still using a white tier piece at the third-tier level. Fortunately, my skill level is not bad."
Du You himself only had a Probe Compass left that was white-tier. However, the two sisters were still using white-tier equipment.
Looking at his own skills, both Magic Stability and Elemental Affinity had been upgraded to Level 6, and his advanced skill Dark Element Fusion Level to 5. But the other skills weren’t upgraded due to insufficient time.
His Basic Archery Skill, which he had never cultivated, had been upgraded to Level 7 on par with his Basic Sword Skill, which left Du You laughing and crying. Even if Basic Archery Skill Level reached 7, it wouldn’t be of much help to his Dark Flame Arrow Array. A large quantity of arrows couldn’t have a significant impact with a basic skill.
In the end, after thinking for a long time, Du You decided to keep the Probe Compass, after all, it still had some use.
