Chapter 139 Celia's Trail
"Hiss—! A resurrection effect?!" The moment he saw the new attribute, especially the incredibly powerful description of [Holy Infusion], the pain in Lin Tian's eyes was instantly replaced by unparalleled ecstasy!
The cooldown and mana cost reduction have been increased from 30% to 40%, which is a huge qualitative change!
But what made his heart race the most was the new effect—resurrection!
In the early stages of a game, especially in a realistic game with a high death penalty, what does a reliable resurrection skill mean?
This means a significant increase in the margin for error!
"Those 10,000 upgrade points were absolutely worth it! No, they were a steal!"
Lin Tian was so excited he almost shouted, his eyes burning as he looked at the Holy Light Magic Orb beside him, which radiated a sacred and majestic aura despite its restrained brilliance.
This unexpected surprise made him feel that all the hard work of grinding monsters and spending upgrade points was well worth it.
At this moment, his equipment has undergone a new leap forward, and he even possesses the heaven-defying skill of resurrection. His attributes, combat power, and survival guarantee have reached an unprecedented level!
Furthermore, the [Starry Sky Arcane Master] class passive [Starry Sky Resonance] provides a "50% reduction in the cooldown of all skills" effect, which, combined with the "40% reduction in the cooldown of all active skills" effect from the [Holy Light Orb] which was recently upgraded to SS rank, further enhances this effect.
The two combined achieve a cooling rate of 90%.
This means that Lin Tian can unleash most of his skills almost without interruption, and the smoothness of his skill cycle has reached an unbelievable level, causing his combat power to soar once again!
......
Meanwhile, in the Abyss Dark Corrosion City.
Inside the castle's throne room, the light was dim, with only the flickering eerie green flames on the walls providing some illumination, reflecting the chilling figure on the throne.
Kael'thas's fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrests of his throne, which were carved from black crystal, producing a chilling "knock, knock" sound.
His deep, abyss-like gaze slowly swept over the numerous abyssal monsters crawling on the ground below, trembling in fear.
An invisible pressure made the air almost freeze.
"So much time has passed..."
Kael'thas's voice was deep and cold, devoid of any emotion, yet it struck the soul of every listener like a heavy hammer.
"Regarding Celia, is there anyone... who can tell me anything?"
The hall was deathly silent, save for the crackling of the demonic fire and the chattering of the teeth of some demons, driven by fear.
For a long time, no one dared to look up and respond.
Kael'thas's gaze grew colder, his eyes like tangible blades, as he fixed his gaze on the monster kneeling at the front.
It was a giant lizard-like monster covered in dark purple scales—[Abyssal Rift-Toothed Lizard Morgus].
It has a ferocious head resembling a dragon, and a tail covered with pale white bone spurs that sweeps uneasily across the ground.
"Morgus," Kael'thas called upon it, "you answer me."
Morgus, whose name was called, shuddered violently. The other abyssal monsters around him instinctively lowered their bodies, their gazes a mixture of relief and pity, as if to say, "Good luck to you."
Morgus raised his head shakily, his enormous Adam's apple bobbing, and replied in a trembling Abyssal language:
"Your...Lord Kael'thas...we...we've searched almost the entire Abyss...but...we still haven't found Miss Celia..."
"Useless trash!" Kael'thas's voice suddenly rose, and the shadows around the throne seemed to come alive, churning violently.
"With so many people, how can you not even find a little girl who's severely injured and has lost most of her strength? How far could she have gone? Could she possibly sprout wings and fly away from this abyss?!"
No one could have imagined that Celia would actually leave the abyss.
They dug three feet into the abyss, how could they possibly find Celia who was already in Sunset City?
Just when the atmosphere was at its most oppressive and Morgus was about to collapse to the ground, a charming yet slightly sinister female voice rang out, breaking the frozen air.
"Lord Kael'thas, please calm down."
The speaker was a stunningly beautiful female demon.
She had fair skin with a cold, jade-like sheen, and a pair of deep, narrow, and icy golden vertical pupils that seemed to see into people's hearts.
Her long, black hair swayed gently behind her like living tentacles, and behind her were a pair of black bat wings with sharp, blade-like edges, yet slightly damaged.
She is none other than Superses, the Enchantress of the Abyss.
Superses swayed gracefully forward, bowed to Kael'thas on the throne, and continued:
"Getting angry would damage your dignity. Perhaps I have some news here that might interest you."
Kael'thas's gaze shifted to Superses, the coldness in his eyes softening slightly:
"Oh? You're quite efficient, Superses. So, where is Celia?"
Superses's lips curled into a smug smile. He glanced at Morgus, who was sweating profusely, before calmly saying:
"Some of the small pawns I planted in the northern suburbs of Luoxia City, near what is known as the 'Northern Abyss Fortress,' have recently sent back some interesting information about the 'adventurers' who have suddenly appeared."
One of the rumors mentioned that a powerful adventurer had appeared in Luoxia City, and he was always accompanied by a woman of unparalleled beauty and unique temperament.
Based on the description, the purple eyes, silver hair, and the aura of aristocratic descent that couldn't be concealed even when deliberately concealed... most likely refer to Miss Celia, whom we are looking for.
"Sunset City? The human capital?" Kael'thas frowned slightly. "Has the information been verified?"
Superses answered respectfully:
"Upon receiving the message, I immediately dispatched elite infiltrators to verify it."
However, as you know, the defensive barriers of the human capital city greatly suppress our abyssal creatures, making it very difficult for our people to approach the core area of Sunset City. We are currently still searching for opportunities to confirm this on the outskirts.
Kael'thas stopped tapping, pondered for a moment, and slowly said, "Well done, Superses. If the information is true, you deserve the credit."
Superses' smile widened, and he bowed, saying, "It is Superses' honor to share Lord Kael'thas's burdens."
Hearing this, Morgus couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Hmph, shameless bitch, just lucky..."
Kael'thas ignored the undercurrents among his subordinates; his gaze seemed to pierce through the castle walls, looking towards a distant, unknown direction, as he muttered to himself:
"Celia, my dear niece...you couldn't resist revealing your presence after all."
