This task was accomplished very well, and Edmont was very confident.
So he promised: "Your Majesty, I will report the progress of the matter to you within three days."
"Well, go ahead." Senior Zhu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Do it well! If you do a good job, I will reward you with one of the four concubines! You can choose it yourself."
There is a custom in the Kingdom of Macadon that the superior will give his concubine, which is not particularly important, to his subordinates who have made great achievements or are particularly close to them.
As a subordinate, this is of course a supreme honor and represents the favor of the superior.
Edmund's heart was filled with incredible ecstasy!
Being willing to give him one of his four closest concubines shows that His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to him!
He must complete the task well in order to live up to His Majesty's expectations.
And His Majesty the Emperor said, "He can choose by himself."
Edmund couldn't help but look towards Princess Emma, the most beautiful and best-shaped among the four concubines.
Princess Emma comes from a famous family and is recognized as a top beauty in the country. She can be said to be a strong competitor for the future queen.
Is she also among his choices?
Seeing Edmund's look over her, Princess Emma's heart suddenly froze.
She came to the palace to be a concubine to His Majesty the King, so that she could become the queen and mother of the world in the future, instead of becoming the wife of some shady intelligence chief!
Feeling the increasingly mocking gazes from three people behind her, she quickly looked towards His Majesty the King: "Your Majesty! I..."
She suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
Because I don’t know when, His Majesty has left his throne and disappeared without a trace.
…
Su Yu didn't know about the turbulent public opinion on Skrull.
In fact, after 15 players returned to Blue Star, Blue Star cut off all sources of intelligence on Skrull.
But even if Su Yu knew, he wouldn't be particularly concerned.
Because in the past few days, his body has concentrated all his energy on one thing - practicing.
In the game, his body sits in the mage tower all day and night to absorb spiritual energy to enhance his strength. When he has a little leisure time, he will go to the [Silver Pine Spire] to crazily learn high-level spells;
In the real world, he often soaked in the giant spring in the Greater Caucasus for the whole night, also practicing.
As for his clone, it is still the same. While cultivating the magic army, he also does some hidden tasks and collects golden potions and props.
The days go by day by day.
Soon, another seven days passed and it came to December 30, the last day of 2120.
On this day, Blue Star Street in the real world was as deserted as usual.
Just on both sides of every street, there are slogans about working hard to fight against the Skrulls.
After today, humans will only have 5 months left!
June 1st is the day of the final battle.
The game world is still prosperous.
Because the flow of time is slowed down by 12 times, people don’t need to be too nervous. Make full use of every minute and second in the game.
In reality, people can stay in the game for 6 full days every day!
After the daily busy life, everyone can have more time to rest and communicate.
The business activities in the game have also become prosperous and colorful because of everyone's active participation.
…
Apxi City, third floor of Master Su Yu Tower.
Su Yu is still practicing diligently. He is sitting cross-legged next to the magic pool and has not moved for two days and two nights.
The red magic circle surrounding the magic pool is rotating rapidly at a speed of 60 revolutions per second.
The magic circle cooperates with the magic pool to refine the monster materials in the pool into pure spiritual energy. Su Yu then absorbs these pure [refined spiritual energy], and his strength increases step by step.
But at 10:13 a.m. on December 30, real world time, the magic pool gradually stopped working, and the red magic circle also gradually stopped rotating.
The reason for this is because - the materials in the magic pool have been burned out.
Not only were the materials in the magic pool burned out, but all the materials stored in Su Yu's necklace were also burned out.
One and a half months ago, on November 13th, Su Yu borrowed a total of 50 billion psychic coins.
Among them, Apxi City has a financial surplus of 4 billion, and it asked for 26 billion from the coalition government, and borrowed 20 billion from Alijie.
After borrowing the 50 billion, Su Yu immediately went out to buy monster materials. In just a few days, he purchased monster materials worth a total of 45 billion, and burned them all in the next few days.
The 4 billion in fiscal surplus and the 26 billion requested from the coalition government do not need to be repaid.
Not only does he not have to pay it back, he can also ask for more.
But the 20 billion borrowed from Alijie must be repaid. This is a limitation of the rules of the game.
This part of the money comes from the Plantagenet treasury. Even if Su Yu marries Alijie or even becomes the Emperor of Plantagenet himself, this part of the money must be repaid.
So as a last resort, he had to find a way to make money on his own.
…
After consuming 45 billion resources, Su Yu's strength has also made great progress.
Now open its properties panel and you will see the clear words "lv83".
Level 83 is the upper level of the seventh level according to strength. After two more levels to reach level 85, he has successfully advanced to the eighth level!
By the way, the [Star Casting Dragon King] that Su Yu saw in the Novice Village was level 84, which was not much different from him now. He was completely at the level that "can fight".
…
In the mage tower, after the magic circle and magic pool came to a complete stop, Su Yu stood up and stretched.
After practicing in seclusion for so many days, it was time for him to go out and relax to relax!
The cat Chenxing was practicing beside Su Yu.
After all these days, Morning Star has been with him.
Seeing that Su Yu seemed to want to go out for a walk, she cast a questioning look at him: "Hey, what level are you at?"
"Level 83." Su Yu replied with a smile.
"I'm already level 84, one level higher than you!" Chenxing's beard curled up, feeling proud.
Su Yu relies on burning a lot of materials to upgrade, while Cat Chenxing relies on constant adventures.
More than a month ago, she refined and absorbed a seventh-level peak [Spirit Absorbing Squid]. During this month, she completely absorbed the treasure [Star Mark Eye] obtained from the Pandaren Empire.
This makes her level up faster than Su Yu!
Now, she has even advanced to the seventh level peak ahead of schedule, and is only one step away from the eighth level!
However, this step can also be said to be a natural chasm.
Countless practitioners have been stuck here for their entire lives.
Either he is not talented enough, he is too old, or he does not have enough materials for breakthrough.
Su Yu and the cat Morning Star are still quite young. (Because they hatched from cat eggs not long ago, Morning Star is still just a kitten, which is far away from adulthood.)
They have enough time to fight hard, find enough breakthrough materials, and then break through the barrier that most prohibits practitioners from advancing to the eighth level.
