BXBX NOVEL Chapter 475: 474, Reward_1
By the time the duel had been going for one hour and five minutes, only two players, Su Yu and Snow Leopard, were left on the battlefield. The translucent panel displayed “2/4110” for the number of players remaining.
At this point, Su Yu’s troops had taken control of the three mountain ranges of the Icy Camp, Natural Camp, and Holy Light Camp, owning 3258 gold mines;
Snow Leopard’s forces occupied the Shadow Camp and Flame Camp mountain ranges, with 2724 gold mines under their control.
Both of them had a large number of the ultimate troops produced from each camp.
On Su Yu’s side, he had 33 of the highest tier troop produced from Icy Camp, the [Frost Dragon]; 48 of the Natural Camp’s highest tier troop, the [Mountain Giant]; and 27 [Holy Angels] produced from the Holy Light Camp.
Snow Leopard’s forces weren’t far off either. He had over a hundred of the highest tier troops, among which were 53 [Flame Phoenixes] and 51 [Shadow Ghosts].
On Su Yu’s side, his gold production rate had reached an astonishing 16,290 per second, meaning he could recruit a new ultimate troop type every 1.23 seconds.
Knowing that his gold mine count was at a disadvantage, Snow Leopard took the initiative to challenge Su Yu to a final battle at the lakeside, as if he continued to wait, the gap would only continue to grow.
Of course, Su Yu wasn’t afraid. He readily accepted the challenge and met him in battle at the lakefront.
Over 200 tier-five ultimate troops clashed in battle at the lakefront, raising a cloud of dust that spread for several kilometers.
On Su Yu’s side, the Frost Dragons and Mountain Giants had high health and defense and were backed by the healing ability of the Sacred Angels, forming an indestructible wall.
Snow Leopard’s Flame Phoenix and Shadow Ghosts did high damage, but they struggled against Su Yu’s “meat shield” strategy.
Three minutes into the battle, the mana of the Flame Phoenixes and Shadow Ghosts was depleted, but Su Yu’s team’s health remained in good condition. At this point, Snow Leopard conceded defeat.
He sighed, recalled all his troops, and said to Su Yu on the opposite side of the battlefield:
“I concede defeat this round, Nemesis. I didn’t expect that you’d also be so adept at strategy. Are you a professional RTS player like Red Alert or Warcraft?”
“No, I don’t play RTS games much.” Frankly, Su Yu replied. “But I was Tina’s sparring partner. She is the number one in-game strategy player and I learned a lot from her. For a gaming battlefield filled with powerful spells, my understanding surpasses yours.”
“So that’s the case.” Snow Leopard sadly smiled, “Then congratulations on securing first place. See you after we go offline.”
With that, Snow Leopard chose to surrender and withdrew from the battlefield.
By Su Yu’s side, the Frost Dragons and Mountain Giants began to dance, their huge bodies swaying as though celebrating victory in the war.
Su Yu also smiled.
After an intense night of illusionary battles, he could finally rest.
Right at this moment, he heard a game notification sound in his ear: “Ding, congratulations for becoming the final round champion of the illusionary battle! You will receive Reward 1: Consumable items [Gold Ice Camp Building (Golden)] X1; [Gold Flame Camp Building (Golden)] X1; [Gold Natural Camp Building (Golden)] X1; [Gold Holy Light Camp Building (Golden)] X1; [Gold Shadow Camp Building (Golden)] X1.”
“You will receive Reward 2: [Elemental Harmony Set (Golden Epic)] X1.”
Five golden glowing lights encircled an even thicker and brighter golden light, falling from the sky and landing in Su Yu’s backpack.
“Five camps? They can’t be the same as the camps where I just recruited troops, right?” Su Yu was puzzled. He quickly opened his backpack to check the properties of his rewards.
The icon for the [Ice Camp Building] looked very similar to the Icy Camp where he had just recruited troops. He focused on the icon and its properties were revealed:
[Icy Camp Building (Golden)]
Consumable Item
User manual: Choose a flat 100×100 plot free of debris to build this structure. After successful construction, you can allocate gold or spiritual energy to recruit the troops you need from the camp.
The types of troops include [Frost Troll Spearmen] (Level 3); [Ice Wing Bat] (Level 3); [Polar Shaman] (Level 3); [Tundra Wolf Rider] (Level 3); [Winter Mage] (Level 4); [Frost Dragon] (Level 5).
Note: This item is consumable and can only be used once.
…
Upon seeing the properties of this item, Su Yu’s eyes lit up.
This was a precious item!
The “golden” feature meant that it could be used in reality – they could construct camps and recruit these powerful troops using spiritual energy and gold.
Blue Star was rich in gold reserves. Su Yu believed that the United Government would be willing to mine gold in large quantities to recruit troops.
It was true that the Level 5 Frost Dragons and Mountain Giants were extremely powerful in direct battles against the Skuru. If they could exchange gold for them, it would definitely be a profitable deal!
As long as the exchange ratio wasn’t too exploitative, humans would definitely be willing to try it.
Su Yu nodded in satisfaction and turned his attention to the other rewards.
The other camp buildings had similar attributes to the Icy Camp Building. They could also recruit powerful troops after construction, and recruitment could be done with gold and spiritual energy.
Su Yu was excited and couldn’t wait to see these buildings built in reality!
Just then, a prominent game notification appeared in Su Yu’s line of sight:
“The latest expansion, “Pandaren Empire,” will go live at 8 am on October 1st!”
“Server maintenance will be conducted from 1:46 am to 8 am on October 1st for the version upgrade. During this time, you will not be able to log into the game. After the server restarts, a brand-new gaming experience will start! For details on the new version, please visit the official website”.
At the same time, a 3-minute countdown appeared in Su Yu’s field of vision.
All players had to log out within 3 minutes; otherwise, they would be forcefully logged out.
“Ah, the familiar expansion is finally here!” Su Yu nodded to himself.
The “Pandaren Empire” expansion was seen as a turning point for humanity.
In this expansion, not only could players materialize their strength in reality, but it was also very important for players to explore the game world and hone their skills.
There were many high difficulty solo trial instances on the Pandaren Continent, and many players who were previously unremarkable soared to fame through these instances, becoming pillars in humanity’s fight against the Skuru.
Furthermore, in this life, the Skuru were different from before and had tricked many people with their cunning ways. They might even support Blue Star’s surrender faction and offer benefits to incite trouble.
Moreover, there were still the monsters being bred from over 3,000 Spiritual Spring Eyes. The future would be full of challenges!
Su Yu shook his head, and with the last three minutes remaining, turned his attention to the second reward – the [Elemental Harmony Set].
