CHAPTER 263: CHAPTER 244 ADVANCED ILLUSIONIST

"Congratulations on passing the trial and completing the Third Transformation."

A burst of radiant light flashed, a warm energy spreading throughout Lin Yi’s body, causing him, someone who has always been composed, to let out a slight moan.

"What the hell!"

After the moan, Lin Yi realized something was off and quickly covered his mouth.

Fortunately, Lin Yi was the only one at the Black Tortoise City Mage Guild’s Third Transformation Magic Master hall at the moment.

Otherwise, that display just now would have inevitably made others think the wrong thing.

His lifelong reputation!

However, what puzzled Lin Yi was that he didn’t feel this kind of bizarre sensation during the Second Transformation.

But that wondrous feeling was fleeting, and now Lin Yi couldn’t recall it at all.

After pondering for a long time without coming to a conclusion, Lin Yi decided to stop dwelling on it.

This time, after smoothly completing the Third Transformation, he gained four skills at once, which are:

[Arcane Nova] (Active/Magic): Forms a starfall in the designated area and detonates, causing three segments of magic damage to targets within the area, based on his own Magic Attack (70%, 50%, 30%), and reduces targets’ Movement Speed by 20%; Skill duration: 5s; Skill consumption: 210 mp; Cooldown: 16s.

[Arcane Missile Enhancement] (Passive): ’Arcane Missile’ attack damage remains unchanged; Cooldown reduced to: 0; Skill consumption reduced by 50%.

[Basic Attack Enhancement] (Passive) (Effective when holding a Close Combat Weapon): Adds 10% magic damage to Basic Attacks.

[Deadly Crit] (Active) (Effective when holding a Close Combat Weapon): After activating the skill, causes 100% Critical Strike Damage to the target for 5 seconds. Skill consumption: 180 mp; Cooldown: 20s.

Among them, there are two magic skills and two close combat skills, with the magic aspect gaining a new Group Attack Skill.

After the target fully withstands the skill damage, it can deal 150% high damage to all targets within range.

This, for Group Attack Skills, is already terrifying.

It’s important to note that all those flashy Fire Element Group Attack Skills can only deal up to 70% damage to the target, while his nearly doubles that.

More importantly, because of the Skill Cooldown Reduction of the [Radiant Treasure Pearl], Lin Yi can release it every 8 seconds, and each time it lasts for 5 seconds, leaving a gap of only 3 seconds.

In terms of frequency, it’s quite remarkable.

Moreover, with an Arcane Burst ready in Lin Yi’s hand, using it alternately with two Group Attacks, the scene... just thinking about it excited Lin Yi.

If this Group Attack surprised Lin Yi, then the [Arcane Burst Enhancement] delighted him!

Although the skill introduction is just a short sentence, it at least significantly boosted Lin Yi’s strength.

With the cooldown reduced to 0, it means the [Arcane Missile] skill can be used like a basic attack.

With reduced consumption, the 25 Mana Points are almost negligible.

This undoubtedly doubles the strength enhancement effect.

Apart from these two magic skills, the other two close combat skills:

Whether it’s the additional 10% magic damage during Basic Attacks or the 100% Critical Strike effect within 5 seconds, Lin Yi is very satisfied.

Especially with the 10% magic damage added to Basic Attacks, combined with the weapon "Purple Thunder’s" 25% Lightning Damage enhancement, the damage just skyrockets!

At this moment, Lin Yi opened the character panel, and now Lin Yi’s attributes are:

Character: Feng Hua

Level: 30

Experience Points for Level-Up: 59801/450000

Profession: Advanced Spirit Summoner

Blood Value: 4150/4150

Mana: 3900/3900

Constitution: 181

Power: 90

Intelligence: 570

Agility: 65

Accurate: 15

Physical Damage: 175-465

Magic Damage: 2100-3450

Physical Defense: 710

Magic Defense: 620

Luck Value: 20

Honor Points: 200

Comprehension: 10

Seeing that 3000+ Magic Attack, Lin Yi was stunned.

Even Lin Yi couldn’t help but exclaim:

"How monstrous!!"

Lin Yi clearly remembered, during the Second Transformation, his Magic Attack was only around 700.

Who would have thought that after just ten levels, his Magic Attack would surge over 2000.

Thinking back to before his rebirth, when his Magic Attack reached 3000, his level was already as high as 45.

Yet in this life, he actually broke through the three thousand Magic Power barrier at level 30.

Now, besides the high-blood, high-defense Shield Warriors, his attack can almost instantly kill any squishy profession, right?

And with a Blood Value exceeding 4000, at least half of the Shield Warriors in the game haven’t broken through 4000.

Even stable as a mountain’s Blood Value is just over 6000.

And stable as a mountain is one of the top Shield Warriors in the game!

Then Lin Yi turned his attention to his equipment bar:

The equipment includes:

[Radiant Treasure Pearl] Lv10 Myth

[Cyan Dragon Stone] Lv0 Myth

[Werewolf Race Totem Mark] Lv0 Legendary

[Goblin Emblem] Lv0 Legendary

[One-Eyed Badge] Lv0 Legendary

[Diona’s Legendary Chain] Lv25 Legendary

[Great Mage’s Boots] Lv20 Legendary

[Madness Bracelet] Lv29 Legendary

[Purple Thunder] Lv30 Epic

[Great Mage Robe] Lv26 Epic

[Meditation Hood] Lv23 Epic

...

Among them, two are Mythical Level equipment, six are Legendary Level, and the rest are Epic Level.

Who in this entire game could have such a luxurious equipment lineup right now?

Lin Yi walked out of the Mage Guild with satisfaction and headed towards the Teleportation Array.

White Tiger City is located north of Vermilion Bird City, a city covered in snow year-round.

When Lin Yi walked out of the Teleportation Array, a world of white snow filled his vision.

The native inhabitants were wrapped in thick clothes, bustling through the streets.

Occasionally, you would see a few curious players wandering around,

The wild monsters outside White Tiger City range between Level 40-50.

According to the progress from the previous life, it would take at least half a year after the open beta for mainstream players to enter here.

Never mind that Lin Yi is already Level 30.

However, starting from Level 30, the experience needed for leveling up will grow exponentially.

Under normal circumstances, it would take Lin Yi at least two to three months to reach Level 40.

After stepping out of the Teleportation Array, Lin Yi headed towards the Mage Guild as he remembered.

When Lin Yi stepped into the guild, he instantly attracted numerous surprised glances.

Looking around, Lin Yi was shocked to discover that all the NPCs inside this Mage Guild were native inhabitants, unlike the other three Main Cities where real and fake NPCs were mixed.

He was sure they were all native because of the complex emotions of curiosity and amazement in their gazes towards him,

emotions that system NPCs couldn’t possess.

At that moment, a wise-looking elder, wearing a purple-gold robe, slowly approached Lin Yi, saying something utterly puzzling:

"You have finally arrived, Chosen One."

This was Lin Yi’s target for this trip:

Hamisen Luthor Lv75

Mage Guild President

Lin Yi looked at him in surprise:

"Were you waiting for me?"

Luthor, his seemingly old face revealing a friendly smile, replied:

"Yes and no."

Lin Yi was taken aback:

"What do you mean?"

Luthor:

"I wasn’t waiting for you, but something on you."

"What thing?"

The other party did not answer Lin Yi’s question but directly handed a specially designed token to Lin Yi, saying:

"Now that I’ve given you this item, my mission is complete."

Before Lin Yi could speak, Luthor was already strolling away, hands behind his back, towards the guild’s interior.

At this moment, he suddenly turned his back to Lin Yi and said something obscure:

"Sometimes, what you see may not be real; sometimes, what you think is false might just be real."

Lin Yi was startled by these words:

"What does that mean?"

But he received no further response.

As the figure disappeared into the solemn hall, Lin Yi’s gaze fell on the rusty token in his hand.

Jade Qilin, who was beside Lin Yi, suddenly exclaimed:

"It’s actually an Alliance Order?"

Looking at the token with no description, Lin Yi quickly turned to Jade Qilin:

"Do you recognize this thing? What’s an Alliance Order?"

However, Jade Qilin suddenly feigned ignorance, replying:

"Huh? Did I just say something?"

Lin Yi squinted at Jade Qilin, a hint of menace in his voice:

"You..."

"I can only tell you this item will be extremely useful for you in the future; anything else, even if you kill me, I can’t say."

Hearing this, Lin Yi raised an eyebrow:

"Just this piece of rusty iron plate?"

As Lin Yi stared at the token lost in thought, Jade Qilin snorted beside him and thought:

"Rusty iron plate? Heh~"
