Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Countdown to the Big Battle

The previous three skill books were all third-order skills. Chu You knew that in the third stage of the combo technique, when it falls into an Area Fluctuation, there was a 50% chance of initiating a Shock Wave. If it doesn’t, then it would only be a two-strike combo. But regardless, he finally assembled a full-phase combo technique.

All warriors could learn the skill of Blood Qi Recovery, it was a systematic skill. Although these are very expensive, many people need them. This particular skill could bring 4200 HP recovery to a warrior. Warriors that can take hits and deal damage need such skill enhancement.

As for Magic Elimination, it simply removes the opponent’s beneficial BUFF skills. For example, if Chu You used Blood Qi Recovery, but if the opponent had learned Magic Elimination, then they could wipe out the BUFF skill of Blood Qi Recovery. This skill had a strong effect in real combat. High-order versions can even remove the enhancements derived from items like Cooking Alchemy. It could also remove two BUFF skills at once.

Finally, there was Impact Removal. Chu You didn’t expect to encounter it here. Any profession could learn Impact Removal, which was a valuable universal skill. Despite being a third-order skill, it was irreplaceable and unique. It could resolve priest statuses that priests couldn’t handle. How badass is that?

Skills like Silence, Sleep, Control, etcetera all could be resolved by the Priest’s Skill of Clear Spring Water. However, things like fainting, knockdown, and other irresistible statuses couldn’t be mitigated by priests. If you were knocked down, you’d need to lie on the ground for three seconds no matter what. But with Impact Removal, everything changed. The moment opposing players knock you down, the Impact Removal skill activates. After using it, it immediately removes this status, avoiding further passivity. Moreover, within 10 seconds, the player’s Resistance attribute will greatly increases, making knockdown nearly impossible unless the knockdown value exceeds the Resistance value of 1000+ the player’s hidden Resistance attribute, which is almost impossible among players.

To acquire this book of Impact Removal was extremely difficult. Chu You remembered that in his past life, this Skill Book was once sold for 1 million Gold Coin, setting a record for the highest transaction price that month!

"Those cultivation methods are quite decent, aren’t they?" Chu You pretended to be unimpressed. When the skill books appeared, he initially thought of them as low-level 50-grade books. He didn’t expect them to be like this. The first three skill books could be acquired by fighting BOSSes, and altogether, they were probably not worth even 10,000 Gold Coins.

Lord Xue slightly raised his hands with some helplessness: "I could only present you with these few items of worth. If you decide to go to sea, I could offer you a boat. And in my jurisdiction, you’ll get exceptional convenience to perform your task."

What? Are you trying to extort me? Are you suggesting that you’ll hinder my mission if I don’t agree?

"Well, since you put it that way, I’ll be straightforward. You see, I’m here alone on a mission, which can be quite risky. The monsters outside the city are formidable, and I’m no match for them. That’s a big problem. So, I wonder if Lord Xue could provide me with a squad of elite guards for my protection?" Chu You asked brazenly, demanding a group of elite guards.

"Although I am a noble, currently I do not have any servants!"

"Oh ho, you... Indeed, your safety is a concern. However, it’s not possible to provide you with a squad of elite guards. I’m short on manpower to manage the disorderly refugees. How about this, I can give you two elite guards. That’s the best I could do for you!"

System: Lord Xue’s favorability towards you dropped to 59%!

Seeing the system prompt and the determination in the other’s tone, Chu You sighed a little. He felt somewhat annoyed. The bargaining couldn’t go any further, if it did, they might break off the negotiations. He had to stop while he was still ahead.

"Well then... I appreciate your support, Lord Xue. Don’t worry, I’ll get you the 50,000 stones of grain as promised."

System: The trade transaction with Lord Xue was successfully triggered.

Mission Detail: Deliver 50,000 units of grain to Lord Xue. If the transaction isn’t completed within five days, it will be considered a mission failure. You will be ambushed by Lord Xue and continually pursued until you lose five levels. If the transaction is completed, you will receive an additional 300,000 experience points.

Being targeted by an official is not an easy situation, because their actions aren’t limited. Even within the city, even in a safe area, they would attack a traitorous player.

After speaking, Chu You put the four skill books on the table into his backpack.

"Ha ha, okay. Just a while ago, I cast a secret spell and arranged for two guards to wait for you at the door. From now on, they will be your men. Please take good care of them."

System: You received Lord Xue’s gift: two level-50 elite guards!

"Okay, Lord Xue, rest assured. I will definitely take good care of them." Seeing the 50-level elite guards, Chu You nodded in secret.

"That’s good to hear. Also, as you’re leaving, my men will take you to the dock. There’s a boat there; I made a promise to you after all, and that boat is yours now."

"Thanks for Lord Xue’s generous offer. So, I’ll set off now." Chu You got up and said goodbye.

When he left the City Lord’s mansion, in his field of vision, there were two remains dressed in black armor with a special mark on their heads, which meant that they truly belonged to him— under his command now.

"You must be Sir You, right? Please follow me to the dock, where we have a speedboat prepared for you by Lord Xue!" An NPC all dressed in fine clothes said to him with a grin.

Chu You then checked his elite guards: Shadow Guard, Level-50, three-star elite soldier, agility type, damage value 2424-4150, HP 80,000, defense 450, attack speed: 0.62 seconds, movement speed 100, equipped with three Fifth-Order Skills.

Seeing the skills clearly, Chu You had a slight smile on his face.

Well, having them tank the monsters is a good idea! They’re quite good at attracting aggro!

These NPC servants would only have one life. Once they die, they’re dead.

"Alright, you lead the way."

Soon, they swiftly headed towards the dock; with two level-50 elite Shadow Guards tightly following Chu You, it was quite an impressive sight.

The dock here was simply worlds apart from Jiangshan City. Tuoshan City was full of a sense of ruin everywhere, even the dock was no exception. The whole environment was presented in a dark tone.

Under the guidance of this steward-like NPC, they arrived in front of a boat.

Upon seeing this boat, Chu You’s eyes lit up. Not because it was large or a battleship. Contrarily, it was a small boat, similar to his speedboat from reality. However, this boat was a wooden one with a color from its body that hinted at its extraordinariness.

Just as Chu You was admiring the small boat, the system prompt sounded again in his ears.

’Ding-ding-ding-ding...’ a series of dense and pleasant system sounds suddenly sounded. System: You have an item related to "Scoring Rewards and Rules of the Seven Kingdoms Big Mixed Battle" that has entered your backpack. Please check the details when you’re free!

Chu You squinted his eyes, immediately opened his inventory, and sure enough, there was an envelope inside.

He ripped it open and took a look. The first thing he saw was a set of time digits.

The Seven-Kingdom PVP war will officially begin in 24 game hours!
