Translator: 549690339

In the game, the rewards for tasks at the 5th, 10th, 15th, and so on, are all very good.

For example, in the main storyline of [Glory of the Goldfinch Empire], the 5th round rewarded Su Yu with a set of houses that could be sold for millions of spiritual energy coins.

Only some tasks with a changed process are exceptions, such as the [Centaur’s Lingering Feelings] task that Su Yu just completed.

According to the normal task process, in the 9th round of the [Centaur’s Lingering Feelings] task, Dima would die in the arena and Tina would enter a state of corruption.

In the last round of the task, the player, with the help of Commander Grace, would enter Tina’s soul world and defeat a boss called [Tina’s Perseverance].

Then, complete the entire hidden task and receive the final reward, the [Village Good Sword (Gold)].

But because Su Yu broke the task process and spent money to cure Dima, the [Village Good Sword] reward appeared in the 9th round, and the final boss was also missing.

Back to the present.

The reward Tina advanced to Su Yu was the main story’s 5th round reward.

This reward is quite powerful, after all, given Tina’s crazy upgrade speed, her 10% bonus is not to be underestimated!

“If Tina can level up 10 times at once, then with 10%, I can also level up two or three times at once, right?” Su Yu thought happily.

But looking sideways, Tina was building up rage and trying to release [Bloodline Connection] on him. Su Yu hurriedly stopped her: “Wait, Tina!” “What?” Tina looked at him with her big puzzled eyes.

Su Yu explained, “Using [Bloodline Connection] now is too early. Why don’t we wait until we eliminate another batch of monsters and use it when you absorb their essence?”

“That’s right.” Tina nodded.

And she didn’t forget to give Su Yu the reward for the second round of tasks. “This is for you, thanks for helping me destroy the Hydra Tribe!”

Tina took out a ring embedded with a blue gem from her arms and threw it to su Yu.

“Ding! Congratulations on completing [Saint of Orleans City (2/100)], you have received [Traveler’s Ring (Rare)], Experience Points XIOOO.”

[Traveler’s Ring IV12 (Rare)]

Backpack space +24

Non-combat movement speed +8%

“This equipment increases backpack slots! It’s quite suitable for me!” Su Yu was very satisfied.

His backpack slots were too few now, needing to carry a large number of scrolls and potions, several cloths for spare, and he couldn’t bear to throw away the equipment and skill scrolls dropped by the boss, so his backpack space was always tight.

With the [Traveler’s Ring], it really eased the capacity of his backpack.

“Thank you, Tina, where are we going next?” Su Yu asked cheerfully.

“Hmm…” Tina tilted her head thoughtfully, then replied, “There’s a mushroom territory a few kilometers southwest from here. We can try our luck there.” “Ding! Your main mission has been updated! [Saint of Orleans City (3/100)].”

“Mission Requirements: With Tina’s assistance, eliminate the mushroom tribe of the ‘Underground Cavern’, kill [Fungus Soldiers] X30, [Fungus Warlock] X30, [Three Fungi Warriors (Elite)] X5, [Mushroom Demon (Leader)] Xl.”

“Mission Rewards: Experience Points XIOOO, [Sorrow of Fungus

(Consumable)].”

Looking at the task description, Su Yu was a bit speechless: “Isn’t your gift supposed to be blood sucking? Shouldn’t mushrooms be plants?”

“Plants also have sap! The effect is actually the same. Besides, the Mushroom

Clan is not entirely plants.”

“Well, let’s go.”

One hour later, in the underground cavern.

“Sorrow of Fungus, hungry!”

2 meters tall, with a huge pale umbrella cap on its head, the [Mushroom

Demon lv22] was holding a rune sword and rushed towards Su Yu and Tina.

In its hand, the rune sword was the [Sorrow of Fungus], emanating a strong frost energy.

“Tina, go!”

Su Yu commanded Tina, while simultaneously using his blink to dodge the [Dead Mushroom Entwined] of the [Mushroom Demon].

He activated the second-order scroll [Summoning Diamond Elemental] in his left hand.

A semi-transparent [Diamond Elemental] appeared, swinging its massive stone fists at the [Mushroom Demon].

At the same time, Su Yu’s [Lightning Bolt] hit the BOSS.

-351!

“The damage is decent,” Su Yu nodded to himself.

Su Yu was currently at level 12, and the [Mushroom Demon] was level 22 BOSS. Under such a massive level gap, Su Yu’s damage should only be in single digits.

But after Tina arrived in the mushroom territory, she gave him a buff [Tina’s Blessing], temporarily raising his level to 20, matching that of Tina’s. Only then was he able to deal any damage to the BOSS.

However, the [Mushroom Demon] had a whopping 30,000 health points. In order to fully defeat the boss, they would need to grind slowly.

“Hiss, ah!”

The [Mushroom Demon] roared twice and activated its skill [Mushroom Demon’s Command]!

A massive amount of spores were ejected from its cap, which fell to the ground and morphed into nine miniature mushrooms.

These [Fungus Soldiers] swayed where they stood, then under the boss’s command, they charged directly towards Su Yu.

Su Yu stood still on the spot.

Once the [Fungus Soldiers] were close, he cast [Frost Nova], freezing them in their tracks.

Immediately after, Su Yu swung his magic wand in his right hand, casting [Rain of Fire] + [Electric Chain], and with his left hand, he released the second-order scroll [Seismic Wave] + [Lightning Storm].

A swarm of numbers jumped from the heads of the mushrooms, dramatically reducing their health points.

The mushrooms were taken out by Su Yu before the three-second control effect of the [Frost Nova] had even ended!

What excited Su Yu even more was that since [Rain of Fire] had six attacks and hit nine targets at once [Desert Emperor Scepter] in his hand had a 5% chance of summoning a [Sand Soldier] every time it inflicted damage on a monster.

So, after a round of [Rain of Fire], four [Sand Soldiers] descended amidst the rain of fire, raising their massive sand spears to strike at the [Mushroom Demon].

The [Mushroom Demon] was surrounded by melee units. With Su Yu’s continuous spell bombardment, its health began to drop rapidly at a rate of 4% per second.

However, the [Mushroom Demon] was oblivious to all this. Its [Sorrow of Fungus] continuously aimed at Tina while it shouted its lines:

“What a ridiculous irony!” “Apocalypse!”

“Bow down before your king!”

“You insects hurt me. I’ve had my fun with you. Now, taste the revenge of the mushrooms!”

Responding to the [Mushroom Demon]’s call, the group of [Fungus Soldiers] who had just died instantly revived and once again swooped towards Su Yu.

But Su Yu was ready.

Repeating his previous tactic, he froze them with the frost circle and brought down a massive AOE. The mushrooms fell to the ground once more.

The [Mushroom Demon]’s health bar was also slowly whittled down during the battle.

“Hope is growing weaker…”

“There must be a Mush—room—King—”

Shouting its last words, the [Mushroom Demon] collapsed on the ground as its health depleted, its vast pale cap broke off entirely from the root..
