CHAPTER 51: CHAPTER 51: GIVING YU QINGCANG A LITTLE SHOCK

Yu Qingcang was momentarily stunned.

When he first saw Lu Ran, he was only level 10, and now, in just a few days, he was level 24!

He unlocked a new skill slot at level 10, and another at level 20.

The speed is astonishing!

Yu Qingcang looked at Ye Hongyi and her group in amazement, saying, "You three are really putting in the effort. This speed is incredible, but even with the Platinum Team Contract, it shouldn’t be this fast, right? What did you do?"

Ye Hongyi replied, "Outdoor boss, Lu Ran killed one, gained five million experience points, and there’s also the global ranking in the Endless Tower, you should know about it."

Upon hearing this.

Yu Qingcang nodded immediately, "Right, right, there’s the Endless Tower ranking, and that Undead Mage, it’s really Lu Ran?"

"Absolutely!" Ye Hongyi proudly wrapped an arm around Lu Ran’s shoulder and pulled him close.

Ye Hongyi and Liu Xinxin are two older sisters with different personalities and different ways of expressing themselves.

Ye Hongyi is bold and outgoing, while Liu Xinxin is more shy.

But Ye Hongyi’s bold actions often made Lu Ran’s lower abdomen surge with wicked desire.

"Wait, wait a second! Let me process this." Yu Qingcang raised his hand.

Leveling up so fast, ranking seventh globally in the Endless Tower, taking down an outdoor boss, and unlocking new skill slots, two of them!

The amount of information is overwhelming.

"One at a time, tell me about the outdoor boss first. How did you get the final hit?" Yu Qingcang organized his words and asked.

"The effect of a skill slot," Lu Ran said directly.

Then he showed the skill slot to Yu Qingcang to see for himself, as explaining it would be too troublesome.

"Vast Sea and Sky... This... does this thing expand the skill’s coverage area? It can expand that too? There was a skill slot that expanded casting distance before, right?" Yu Qingcang’s eyes widened as he looked at the skill slot panel.

He could hardly believe his eyes.

[Skill Slot: Vast Sea and Sky]

[Effect: From the day this skill slot is unlocked, every time an enemy unit is killed, all skill attack ranges increase by one meter, with no upper limit (current bonus: 21355 meters)]

The range in the back, especially, made Yu Qingcang’s brain buzz.

The skill coverage range was over twenty kilometers!

"Yes, the skill coverage range," Lu Ran nodded.

"We’ve already tested it. Now Lu Ran’s Skeleton Storm and Undead Touch can completely cover any dungeon, except for bosses and monsters that require special triggers. Otherwise, they can attack indiscriminately, and paired with the No Cooldown skill slot, it can control the entire dungeon and infinitely stack Skeleton Storm, causing multiple layers of damage," Liu Xinxin explained, knowing the point of Yu Qingcang’s shock.

Yu Qingcang’s breathing became a bit rapid, his chest heaving violently.

When he looked at Lu Ran again, his eyes shone brightly.

The newly unlocked skill slot was actually this terrifying!

When he first met Lu Ran, Lu Ran could endlessly cast skills, and the increase in casting distance was already terrifying.

Now, even the skill coverage range could be increased!

This enhancement to Lu Ran was simply exponential!

In just a few days, Skeleton Storm could now cover twenty kilometers!

"So, when the national war begins, Lu Ran’s Skeleton Storm can cover any country’s army?" Yu Qingcang asked almost to himself.

"That’s the idea, but I think as long as Lu Ran is given enough time to grow, covering the entire battlefield during a national war doesn’t seem like a big challenge either," Ye Hongyi chimed in.

Gulp~

Yu Qingcang swallowed hard.

Instinctively he said, "And there’s also the extensive control of Undead Touch, how... how can other countries respond to this?"

"Respond, my ass. In recent years, the status of Huaxia has been delicate in international situations. Several countries have been jumping around in front of us, and now that Lu Ran has appeared, they shouldn’t even think about responding, just wait for their doom," Lei Tai said gruffly.

Yu Qingcang continued to ask, "Then what about the outdoor boss? How did you get the final strike?"

Ye Hongyi reminded him, "Isn’t there another skill slot?"

Oh right!

Yu Qingcang almost forgot, his attention was completely drawn to the Vast Sea and Sky skill slot, nearly forgetting that Lu Ran had unlocked two new skill slots.

He looked back.

[Skill Slot: Sleeping on Firewood and Tasting Gall]

[Effect: Charging skills will no longer have a maximum charge time limit, allowing for infinite charging]

This skill slot was much shorter, with no numerical explanation.

Yu Qingcang hadn’t quite reacted yet.

He murmured, "Charging skills no longer limited by charge time. Charging skills? Isn’t the Undead Mage’s longest charge skill the Blood Spear for eight seconds? Infinite charging of Blood Spear? Huh?"

As he spoke, Yu Qingcang’s eyes widened.

As the leader of the Celestial Path Alliance, Yu Qingcang immediately understood the key point.

Infinite charging Blood Spear, with damage repeatedly stacking, no limit!

To help Yu Qingcang understand more directly,

Liu Xinxin said:

"Currently, Lu Ran’s magic attack power, after we pooled equipment for him last time, is one thousand seven hundred."

"The Blood Spear’s charge increases the base damage by 50% per second."

"One minute results in thirty times the base damage, which is fifty-one thousand magic damage, ten minutes is five hundred and ten thousand!"

"One hour is three million and sixty thousand!"

"Charging for a night, even ten hours, is over thirty million damage!"

...

The numbers were very clear, and Yu Qingcang understood.

But each word felt like a giant hammer hitting his brain, causing it to buzz.

Charging for ten hours, over thirty million in damage!

"I get it, that Eight-armed Vajra, I remember having over 30 million life points? Just like that?" Yu Qingcang asked.

If it wasn’t facing Lu Ran, he would even feel his question was somewhat ridiculous.

Defeating an outdoor boss in a second? What a joke on the international stage!

"At that time, Lu Ran’s magic attack power wasn’t as high as it is now, but charging for ten hours, there was already tens of millions of damage, so that day, they waited until the Eight-armed Vajra’s life dropped below a quarter, and Lu Ran launched the Blood Spear," Liu Xinxin recalled.

The same principle.

Yu Qingcang was astonished as he looked at them, saying, "I’m really... impressed, facing Lu Ran, who else could snag the outdoor boss’s rewards?"

Then, Yu Qingcang recalled the Endless Tower ranking.

What seemed incredible and incomprehensible to him, he also suddenly understood.

Nodding, he said, "It seems the Endless Tower was climbed this way too. A level 24 Undead Mage climbed to the 56th floor! I’m only at the 59th floor! But I understand now why Lu Ran didn’t rush to climb higher right away, he’s waiting for the Blood Spear charge, right."

Unexpectedly,

Liu Xinxin shook her head, "You shouldn’t underestimate Lu Ran’s No Cooldown skill slot. Even without the Blood Spear, using Infinite Summon and Corpse Explosion, paired with unlimited control from Undead Touch, the difficulty of passing levels isn’t high. It’s just that Blood Spear is a bit more secure. Besides, I wanted to force Nanami to try climbing higher, if she succeeds, great, if not, she’ll still be overshadowed by Lu Ran, just gaining a bit of prestige before the national war."

Yu Qingcang, as the leader of Celestial Path Alliance, naturally wasn’t stupid.

He instantly understood the intention behind Liu Xinxin’s actions.

And he said, laughing and crying, "It’s got to be you, while you’re gaining a bit of prestige, Nanami would be barely holding back her fury."
