Su Yu hadn’t expected the boss to be so fast. He quickly released the [Flash Skill].
Woosh!
A white light flared up, and Su Yu instantly arrived 15 meters away, evading the boss’s attack.
The boss missed his first attack and immediately turned his pike towards Su Yu for another assault.
And this time, the attack was extremely rapid. In a moment, the golden pike nearly stabbed into Su Yu’s chest.
But Su Yu counterattacked swiftly.
Masses of [Crystals of Obsession] were hurled from his hand, raining down onto the boss.
With nowhere to dodge due its huge form, the boss was struck by the crystals, which merged directly into his body.
Under the effect of the crystals, the boss’ size began to shrink steadily and his speed dropped rapidly.
The boss let out a pained howl, brandishing his golden pike, trying to impale Su Yu with a single thrust.
Su Yu stood unmoving, continuously using control skills: [Frost Nova]’s freeze, [Thunderfall Skill]’s paralysis, [Earth Spike Thrust]’s knockback, [Summoning Rock Element]’s group taunt
Though each control effect didn’t last long, they stacked up, trapping the boss for a full 5 seconds!
In between unleashing control skills, Su Yu also tossed out the [Crystals of Obsession] one by one.
As the crystals successively hit, the boss’s size dramatically shrank once again, decreasing from an initial height of five meters down to one and a half meters before stopping, and both his defense and movement speed significantly decreased.
After throwing out the last crystal and using [Insight Skill] to check, the boss’s remaining health was only 683 points, and its attributes were only 1% of the original.
“Ah, poor boss,” Su Yu remarked.
With a casual [Thunderfall Skill], he effortlessly took out the boss.
“Ding, main plot [Saint of Orleans City (14/100)] is completed, reward: Experience Points X3000 received.”
“Ding, main plot [Saint of Orleans City (15/100)] updated.”
“Quest requirement: Go to Tina’s ‘Outer World’ consciousness, confront the intruders with the awake Tina.”
“Quest reward: Random rewards based on the overall quest rating.”
The boss [Tina’s Perseverance] offered no loot, and there was nothing worth lingering for in the Inner World.
Following the quest prompt, Su Yu stepped into the portal again.
The teleportation light brightened, and Su Yu’s figure appeared in the center of the Orleans City’s Grand Coliseum, the very spot where he had just impaled General Grace.
But as soon as he arrived here, Su Yu was immediately taken aback.
Because just in front of him, outside the coliseum, two “giants” more than two hundred meters tall had appeared!
One of the “giants” was Tina.
Su Yu could sense that this Tina was her own consciousness, which was now awake.
Seeing Su Yu teleport out from the Inner World, Tina gave him a small smile and then looked vigilantly at the other “giant” facing her.
The other “giant” was an elderly man, white-haired and bearded, clad in a simple white robe.
The old man was standing a few hundred meters from Tina, watching her with a benign expression.
“Who are you?! Why have you entered my consciousness world?” Tina gaze full of caution became even more pronounced as she stared at the elderly man.
But when Su Yu recognized who the old man was, he was taken aback!
“Could this be Evan Goldsparrow! What is he doing here?”
The elderly man before him was Evan Goldsparrow, a rank eight God Level being, and the guardian deity of the Goldsparrow Empire.
There were only twelve Rank Eight beings in the entire game world, each possessing a terrifying power capable of annihilating the entire game world, and Evan was one of them.
In his previous life, Su Yu only encountered this supremely powerful being during a large-scale battle in the fifth expansion pack “Shining New World”.
Unexpectedly, Evan made an appearance as early as in the first expansion pack, and within Tina’s consciousness domain no less!
Evan could see the caution on Tina’s face.
However, he didn’t mind, simply giving her a slight smile, “Allow me to introduce myself. I am Evan Goldsparrow, the third emperor of the Goldsparrow Empire. I presume you’ve heard of me?”
“What?! You are the Guardian God Evan Goldsparrow?” Tina was greatly surprised.
“Indeed.” Evan spoke amicably, “Young lady, I’ve sought you out because I sensed the aura of ‘destiny’ emanating from you.
The future of the Goldsparrow Empire may just be in the hands of both you and the little girl, Alyssa. Are you willing to contribute your strength for the future of the empire?”
Even though Tina was uncertain whether the elder before her was genuine, she still hesitated and nodded:
“I am willing to make utmost efforts for the glory of the Empire. But if you truly are the Guardian God Evan, why don’t you take action yourself? Please understand, I am only a fourth-order warrior, while you are an eighth order!”
“Well, that’s a long story. My main body is currently battling in another plane and cannot return in time. Moreover, intervening in the main plane costs a great deal, and the current fragile ecosystem of the main plane cannot withstand such a cost.”
“I see.” Tina nodded.
Even though she didn’t fully understand his explanation, she got the sense that it was a significant issue.
Evan continued, “Tina, since you are willing to contribute to the empire, I won’t let your efforts go unrewarded. What you see now is my avatar. From today onwards, my avatar will be constantly around you, protecting you. Creatures of the seventh order and below will no longer pose a threat to you.”
“What you need to do now is to swiftly enhance your powers, become the captain of the Unicorn Knight Order, and then, along with that little girl Alyssa, reclaim the lost territories of the Empire.”
“Become the captain of the Unicorn Knight Order? But I’m not ready yet.” Tina was a bit taken aback.
She had only just joined the order a few days ago, and now she was expected to wrestle the position of captain from the current commander, Grace. Was this even appropriate?
“No worries. In the tide of destiny, no one can ever truly say they are ready.”
Evan smiled, then turned to look at Su Yu, “As for you, explorer of another realm.”
Upon hearing Evan mention his name, Su Yu immediately focused his attention on him.
“You helped Tina clear her obsessions. Well done! This small object is a token of our first meeting.”
With a wave of Evan’s hand, a golden streak of light flew from his hand right into the center of Su Yu’s palm.
“Ding, the main scenario [Saint of Orleans City (15/100)] has been completed. Calculating reward now .”
“You have received an ‘SSS’ rating for this scenario. Reward: [Gold Legend Stopwatch], Experience Pointsx20000.”
[Gold Legend Stopwatch]
Accessory
Active – Stasis: One-time use. You will be invincible and untargetable for 5 seconds, but unable to do anything else during this time (turning into a broken stopwatch).
Note: Can be synthesized with [Explorer’s Armguard] and [Demon’s grimoire] to create the legendary accessory, [Zhongya Hourglass]; it can also be synthesized with [Storm Sword] and [Chainmail] to create the legendary chest armor, [Guardian Angel].
“This is a good item!” Su Yu’s eyes brightened.
“Five seconds of invincibility and untargetability” is essentially a one-time life-saving trick!
Though he already had plenty of life-saving skills, like [Ice Barrier] and [Flash Skill].
But the more life-saving items he had, the better!
“Thank you very much, Lord Evan!” Su Yu bowed to Evan.
“You’re welcome.” Evan waved at them. “I’ll see you in the future!”
“Tina, if you encounter any problems during your training, ask me. My avatar will stay within a five-kilometer radius of you until you fully grow.”
Having said that, Evan’s figure began shaking irregularly, then completely vanished from Tina’s consciousness domain.
