Chapter 72 - 69: Return to Elorin
Chapter 72: Chapter 69: Return to Elorin
Mr. Da Fei felt an immense sense of relief and leisure upon his release from the police station.
The sky was so blue, the wind so fresh, and everyone’s smiling faces were so amiable. This was the joy of success, the satisfaction of achievement, the freedom of being carefree!
Now, at last, Mr. Da Fei had the opportunity to check out Little Nun’s attributes.
Claire Selvia: Selvia was born in a single-parent seafaring family. Her father would bring home various interesting goods from different places every time he returned from the sea, and Selvia also longed to go to sea with her father. However, the Kingdom’s prohibition stated that ordinary women could not go out to sea. Therefore, the young Selvia decided to become an extraordinary woman. She sold the gifts her father brought her to enroll in the church to learn basic divine arts, manifesting extraordinary talent. At 150 years old, when Selvia’s father took on an extremely risky exploration mission, he placed 10-year-old Selvia in a monastery. At the monastery, Selvia studied divine arts even more diligently, becoming a standout among the young nuns and a hopeful candidate for the next Saintess.

…..
These are Selvia’s attributes! Her specialties are tailor-made for sea battles as a priestess! Worthy of being a sailor’s daughter! No, she’s not just a priestess, she is a special Hero profession: Nun! A nun has one more attribute than both priests and knights, adding 15% to the entire army’s Life Value! This is almost the equivalent of having an additional 15% troops in numbers – truly befitting a special Hero profession! Indeed, there are hidden Hero professions in the game!
Among the Nun’s five professional skills, besides the Blessing Ceremony that boosts the state of the entire army, and Holy Body, a common professional skill for Knight Priests that grants immunity to diseases, there are three skills I’ve never heard of before!
Suppressing Darkness: When the enemy uses Dark Magic, their Mana consumption more than doubles.
Undying Light: Causes the enemy’s use of Dark Magic to have a 25% – 50% chance of failure.
Divine Summoning: Gather believers in the name of God, boosting the Nun’s basic Commanding Ability by 100 points.
These are the Nun’s skills! As a hero related to an Epic Mission, her Suppressing Darkness and Undying Light are specifically targeted against Makar, the Death Lord. As for Divine Summoning, it means that the Nun is born with the Military Rank of Lieutenant! No wonder she can command Leader-level creatures!
The recent PK has already showcased the Banshee’s strength; now, it’s finally time to take a look at her attributes.
— Deirdre: Leader-level small-sized Demon Creature.
Attack: 17
Defense: 13
Damage: 17-31
Life: 271
Attack Speed: 11
Casting Speed: Instant
Command Value: 80
Special Skill: Flying Creature, Charm Master, Chain Shooting, Transformation Skill, Banshee Training Master
80 Command Value requirement! Truly befitting of a BOSS! If we’re talking about Basic Commanding Ability, then it’s not something that current non-Hell Race players can handle!
And she’s actually a flying creature! Holy moly! The wings of regular banshee units are just like a chicken’s, purely decorative! BOSSes are indeed BOSSes! Although I’ve slain hundreds of BOSSes, this banshee, with her attack, Blood Defense, and damage, would just be considered trash among BOSSes. She’s not much stronger than a regular sixth-tier soldier. But how many points does this flying stunt add to her value!
Having flying stunts pretty much means it’s hard to be killed on the battlefield. Take angels, for example, many newbie players during the official release said they were too expensive, that the money for one angel could buy three sixth-tier Knight soldiers, and that one angel could not defeat three knights, so angels are not as cost-effective as knights! Indeed, one angel can’t beat three knights in a ground fight, but three angels can wipe out nine knights without a scratch! Pros utilize precise control of their troops to display the advantage of flying stunts to full effect! Similarly, in the hands of pros, the Human Race’s fourth-tier Griffin units are also played to perfection. Not to mention vampires. Flying stunts are the dividing line between the skill levels of pros and noobs.
With the flying ability, not to mention the legendary banshee’s signature Transformation Skill, it’s all tears when we talk about it! As for the one-in-a-thousand special skill training master, that goes without saying! If it weren’t for this special skill, would I, as a professional player, get into a falling out with a big studio?
Psh! If we’ve fallen out, then so be it. When you’re in the game, you’re bound to offend someone. Not offending anyone means you don’t stand your ground. The less you want to offend, the more likely you’re to be targeted. Anyway, I’ve accepted my fate.
Now this is their big studio’s turf. I bet they won’t sit by idly. If they gather dozens or hundreds of people to rush out in an attempt to recklessly chop down my banshee in the street, it would be troublesome. Not afraid of her being killed, but afraid she’d be crippled and revert to her original form from the Transformation Skill. Once she reverts, the banshee is no longer an NPC but becomes a regular unit, which would then be forcibly stored in the barracks outside the town by the NPCs. Regular units cannot use the Teleportation Array, and clearly, the Transformation Skill has a long cooldown. Wouldn’t that mess up the plans to board the ship?
So the priority now is to teleport Selvia to the Elf Kingdom, Elorin. After all, I’m an Honorary Citizen there. The safety is on a different level.
Fortunately, the big studio is not as crazy as Da Fei imagined. After Da Fei made a detour to pick up Catherine from the tavern, the group managed to return to Elorin safely.
In less than a day of real time, Da Fei gained another Female Hero. For a moment, a group of merchant players were amazed and discussed with gestures of disbelief. Hahaha, be envious, jealous, and hateful, right? Keep grumbling! Did the boss only pay you a day’s temp fee? This truly feels like a homecoming.
Let’s go check out how the customization of my ship is going.
The shipyard dock. The huge Flying was pulled out of the water, resting on the shipyard slides, with hundreds of workers scurrying around on the surrounding scaffolding, with the entire ship’s hull being painted with a layer of green paint.
Hey, hey! Why paint in this color? I don’t want green!
Da Fei was anxious and quickly found a bossy-looking person who appeared to be a foreman and asked, “Can we change the paint color? I don’t want green; I want white! Or even black is fine.”
The elf foreman saluted: “Mr. Da Fei, captain, you might not know this. This is not paint; it’s the vital glue that we are infusing into the rotten wood, which is very expensive. Its function is akin to the vascular system inside a plant. Simply put, your ship temporarily has the function of a living plant, and it can fully absorb Life Energy. Do you understand?”
Da Fei suddenly realized: “I see! You’ve all gone to great lengths.”
The foreman shook his head: “It’s because this ship has a value worth the effort, sir. Do you believe that the ship also has life?”
Elf rules, all trees have spirits, right! Da Fei laughed: “I believe it. After all, this is a ship that has been both blessed and cursed. Something without life wouldn’t be blessed or cursed.”
The foreman nodded contentedly: “It’s really good that you think this way, sir. This ship has been cursed, and it’s weeping. Please treat it well, and when the time comes, it will also surprise you.”
Da Fei asked in surprise: “What kind of surprise?”
The foreman replied solemnly: “Of course, it can grow like life, have skills like life!”
Da Fei’s eyes widened! Holy shit, so the ship can level up and have skills?
At this moment, a guard ran over: “Mr. Da Fei, the mayor urgently needs to see you, please follow me.”
Urgent matters? It’s not yet the departure date, right? But that’s fine, I also have important matters to discuss with him anyway, like uncle’s flute, and about installing a Banshee Camp on my ship, hahaha!
