Chapter 802: Chapter 88: Increased Gem Pool Resource Output and the Knightly Training of the Snake Woman Hela
After acquiring the Emerald Annual Rings, Vidage was overjoyed.
She excitedly waved her small fist: "Now we don’t have to worry about goblins, goblins, and rat people sneaking into our Gem Pool anymore. As long as we plant this guard at the key junction of the Gem Pool, any monster daring to approach will be blasted into a sieve~"
Su Li was also stunned by the combat power of this Emerald Annual Rings Guard. The power of its casually launched Magic Missile could almost match a Champion Knight’s strike.
At the very least, if the Elite Knights were unprepared, they would suffer severe damage instantly, and possibly lose their combat effectiveness.
Aside from being unable to move, this guard had virtually no weaknesses. Honestly, if Vidage had such a plant guard legion, they wouldn’t need many, even just 20-30.
It wouldn’t be easy for a Knight squadron to break through their defended position. Of course, Knights have the unique mobility advantage, and with tactical deployment, forming a local advantage to outnumber the enemy, they could eventually break through. But the casualty ratio would not look good.
Selanweir carefully observed the Emerald Annual Rings Guard for a moment and said, "Lord, I think we can use this Emerald Annual Rings when setting up camp. It’s simply a perfect guard legion."
"That’s right," Su Li nodded, "Especially at night, they can perfectly defend against enemy night raids. In the daytime, they can stop attacking to effectively prevent friendly fire."
However, the cost of this thing is indeed very high, and currently, its most important function is undoubtedly to guard the Gem Pool.
With these guards, the defense pressure on the Gem Pool would be greatly alleviated, and Su Li wouldn’t need to station a large army here.
Vidage was also very excited, meaning she could finally expand the Gem Pool. So she kept pestering Hela to make more Emerald Annual Rings for her.
Su Li’s tasks were basically done here; he should return to Bauhinia Manor to rest and train.
But seeing Hela’s enthusiastic and lingering manner, he couldn’t bear to leave immediately. After all, leaving meant Selanweir would leave too. As agreed, if Selanweir left, Hela had to leave as well.
Though Vidage and Hela’s relationship was still harmonious, Su Li was no country bumpkin who couldn’t say anything like empty words that don’t last beyond five minutes, reaching an agreement only to overturn it immediately.
So he stayed for a while longer. With nothing else to do, he carefully checked Selanweir’s cultivation progress.
What he found shocked him: "You’re already at the peak of Elite Level? You’re about to break through to Champion Level?"
Selanweir’s blue hair always hung smoothly down to her knees, and the sunlight refracted from the water droplets condensed from heat shone gently, while her sapphire eyes inherited from elf lineage seemed to contain floating ice crystal fragments transformed into a galaxy stream, filled with mysterious hues.
Circles of ripples swirled in her eyes, mysterious and charming, with a faint smile on her lips as she said, "Lord, thanks to the effect of the Gem Pool, my cultivation speed is quite fast. Perhaps it’s because the early stages are relatively easy."
Su Li nodded, indeed, cultivation is like this for geniuses. As strong as Hilude, she progressed rapidly in the early stages, but when she reached Divine Chosen Level, it became difficult.
From the end of the war until now, her strength hasn’t broken through Middle Tier Champion Level. It’s been nearly a year with little progress.
If Selanweir wanted to cultivate to Legendary Level, it would likely consume a lot of time. Fast cultivation in the early stages is normal.
Su Li had many intimate moments with Selanweir. Despite her body not being as sensitive as Freya’s, the contrast was the greatest; beneath her dress, her skin was pale like snow, during cultivation, it would turn warm pink ambiguously.
So Su Li pulled her into his embrace, as An Lushan’s Claw restlessly caressed her cool, slender legs, saying, "Tonight, let’s return to the manor, and I’ll give you proper guidance in cultivation to help you break through to Champion Level sooner."
Although there weren’t many people around, with Vidage and Hela busy concocting aromatic dew, Selanweir still shyly lowered her head.
The most beautiful scenery in the world is the gentle dropping of a girl’s head, like water lilies shyly retreating before the cool breeze.
Selanweir knew she couldn’t refuse, so she lowered her head and softly replied, "Mm."
Su Li smiled and kissed her cheek, then let Ariana bring over the Rare Level Battle Armor.
"Come, try this Blood-cast Fine Gold Plate Armor. It’s a Rare Level Vibranium Battle Armor forged by the dwarf Master of Forging, Torrek Ironbrow."
Though this Rare Level Vibranium Battle Armor doesn’t have Ethereum Gold and can’t adapt to the Divine General state, it’s still genuinely a Rare Level Plate Armor.
Even a Baron, Count, having such a set of Rare Level Treasure Armor would treasure it and display it in the most exquisite gallery.
Also, this armor is very suitable for Selanweir’s Ice and Snow Valkyrie bloodline; besides the Blazing Soul Law possessing the [Cold Steel Rune] and [Crown of Honor], it also has the third rune trait · Shield Rune.
[Shield Rune — This rune was initially crafted during the Revenge War, when the entire Dwarf Legion carried Shield Runes to the battlefield, used to resist High Elf arrows and magic bullets.]
