Chapter 409: Qi, the Weakest Overlord

Right now, everyone had a preliminary understanding of how Qi cleared the twelve trials.

With equipment.

However, apart from a few, most people still didn't understand why Qi could clear the trials so quickly with just one piece of equipment.

Even someone as knowledgeable as the librarian Lier couldn't, for a moment, think of any legendary artifacts in the Elven collection that could so easily help Qi pass the 12 trials.

Whether low-level or high-level, none could be controlled by Qi, who was only at the Awakening level.

It was impossible for a level 1 elf to wield level 100 equipment.

Even some equipment with item spirits wouldn't so easily recognize an Awakening-level elf as their master. Although the conditions for using them would be greatly reduced after gaining their approval, the process of recognition was a great test for the user.

All of a sudden, Shi Yu became even more mysterious among these Courtyard Township royal geniuses.

It wasn't scary for him to be strong; what was scary was that he could casually use a piece of equipment to make an Awakening-level elf comparable to them.

This incomparably mysterious image put great pressure on the two Courtyard Township geniuses who would be communicating with Dragon Palace City tomorrow.

"As expected of you." Lu Qingyi looked at the umbrella in Qi's hand, thoughtfully.

As one of the people who knew Shi Yu the best, Lu Qingyi was the quickest to figure out what was going on.

The weapon probably had Buggy's illusory shadow as its item spirit.

Shi Yu often used this tactic. For example, in the Martial Arts Tournament, Shi Yu used an Ice Dragon Blade to summon an Ice Dragon item spirit to assist him in battle, coordinating with the item spirit to defeat monarchs while being a Commander and fighting above his level.

For example, in the National Competition, he even had Chi Tong activate Mu Huiyin's item spirit himself, forming a combination skill with Buggy across thousands of miles to unleash the Intersecting Sword, crushing Gao Xuan.

For the people around Shi Yu, it was no longer a secret that Shi Yu had mastered a set of skills to use illusory shadows as item spirits.

If this method was used, it would indeed allow this little girl to easily pass the 12 trials.

Lu Qingyi was silent. She naturally knew the combat power of that butterfly. Her overlord-level elf might not even be able to defeat the Divine Dragon phantom it created with all its might.

Using these phantoms as equipment spirits was a dimensional reduction attack. Whose orders they listened to was a matter of Buggy's words.

Lu Qingyi even suspected that even without this little girl holding the weapon, Shi Yu could have the weapon clear the trials by itself, or even have the item spirit leave the equipment to闯关. It wasn't impossible.

Lu Qingyi suddenly chuckled. It was right that the surrounding people couldn't understand. After all, they didn't know Buggy's power of imagination.

This ability was definitely a skill that dwarven blacksmiths dreamed of.

"Alright, you can all leave."

After knowing what was going on, the Elf Queen began to dismiss people. Although most of the Courtyard Township geniuses who had gathered had many questions, they reluctantly left under the Elf Queen's orders.

And the Elf Queen, Sylphra, looked at Qi and said, "Come with me to Shi Yu's place."

In the Elf Queen's view, Shi Yu's behavior was definitely a case of doing something for nothing. This piece of equipment was extremely outrageous and would make many legendary dwarves fight over it for research. Shi Yu definitely wouldn't give it to Qi for no reason, so she wanted to find out what Shi Yu meant.

"..." Shi Yu didn't expect the Elf Queen to bring Qi to his door so quickly.

Wasn't the Elf Queen visiting Annies and others to study some natural ruins?

"Your Majesty," Shi Yu immediately greeted after Sylphra arrived.

Next to the Elf Queen, Qi, clutching the umbrella, was careful and didn't dare to speak.

"Shi Yu, did you give her that weapon?" the Queen asked.

Shi Yu glanced at Qi and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"She cleared the 12 trials of the royal trial with it, causing quite a stir," the Elf Queen said, staring at Shi Yu.

Of the Courtyard Township geniuses of this generation, only four could normally pass the 12 trials she had set.

As a result, Shi Yu helped an Awakening-level elf girl pass with a piece of equipment. She suspected that Shi Yu was targeting her.

"Ah... haha, is that so?" Shi Yu said with an embarrassed smile.

He did encourage Qi to build up more confidence.

Wanting to train her will, he couldn't do it the same way as before.

He had to build up confidence, then shatter it, then build it up again, and shatter it again, over and over again.

"Then what is your purpose in giving her such a precious thing?" Sylphra asked with a smile.

"I haven't had time to tell you yet."

"I want to help Qi cultivate," Shi Yu said. "This is said to be a weapon, but every weapon, in the process of use, can help her better affinity with natural energy, or help her exercise her physique, and is also equivalent to an exercise prop."

"Your Majesty, let Qi go to Dong Huang with me to cultivate."

As expected...

The Elf Queen knew that Shi Yu must have chosen Qi, which was why he had made such an equipment with so much importance. However, what she didn't understand was why Shi Yu chose Qi when there were so many other elven geniuses to choose from.

"Why?" the Elf Queen asked.

Why... didn't you tell me to contract an elf back, Shi Yu thought to himself.

"One is because Qi works hard to train herself with various weapons and equipment even without extraordinary power. I like this kind of personality very much. The second is that her physique should not be as simple as it seems on the surface. The reason for the defects may be because of the huge potential."

Shi Yu looked at the Elf Queen and said, "She is very similar to my other partners. At the beginning, they all had more or less some problems, so I want to try and see if I can help her change her destiny."

Beside him, Qi's eyes flickered, looking at Shi Yu gratefully, while the Elf Queen nodded.

Thinking that Shi Yu had discovered Qi's special features, special features that even she hadn't discovered, the Elf Queen didn't think anything of it. Every profession has its own expertise. Just like even she couldn't study mechanical phantom beasts, it was normal for Shi Yu, who had studied mechanical phantom beasts of mythical races, to have his own unique insights.

She wanted to see to what extent Shi Yu, this legendary genius, could cultivate Qi, this flawed elven girl.

"Qi, are you willing to follow him?"

The Elf Queen looked at Qi and asked for her opinion.

Although it was not quite the same as what she had imagined at the beginning, as long as Shi Yu could choose a Courtyard Township elf, it would be considered achieving the goal.

"Yes, yes, I want to follow Master Shi Yu." Qi nodded.

"Then from today onwards, you will follow Shi Yu to cultivate, and I will announce this matter later," the Elf Queen said.

If an elf of the Courtyard Township royal family is contracted by an outsider, it must be announced to the outside world, which is also a kind of establishment of diplomatic relations.

At the same time, due to leaving the royal family, the identity of these elves will also change slightly, and when they leave, the royal family will also send blessings and gifts.

After getting Qi from the Elf Queen, Shi Yu felt much happier.

Regardless of whether Rin's research results were correct or not, it was definitely true that Qi had the power of God in her body.

Currently, Shi Yu's plan was to let Qi, who had inherited the natural physique of the elves, continue to exercise the power of nature. When her strength became stronger, her will level might be able to increase.

Natural power from the outside, unlike the extraordinary power in the body, can be cultivated by Qi, but the difficulty is slightly greater, after all, that is a skill that only overlords begin to cultivate.

After the Elf Queen left, Lu Qingyi came back and approached Shi Yu.

"When you were at the library, the important thing you said you had to do was to hook up with the elven girl in the training ground."

Lu Qingyi came with a smile on her face, but this smile made Shi Yu a little guilty.

"How could it be." Shi Yu敷衍 said, but the matter of the Elf of Time was not easy to say.

Before the dust settled, he would not tell anyone, especially the Dragon God and the Elf Queen, which would only add a lot of trouble.

After all, the matter of traveling through time and space was too Bug.

Whether traveling through time and space would change the future through the past, or create a brand new parallel space, he did not know at present.

Moreover, if traveling through time and space was a magical skill, then the price of using it would probably be very high.

Let's take it one step at a time and see how it goes first.

"You don't want to contract that elven girl, do you?" Lu Qingyi felt strange.

After she contracted Lian, she felt that she was not raising a pet, but finding a闺蜜 for herself.

In this regard, Bai Xi envied and hated her, saying that she also wanted to be contracted by Senior Lu...

If it was this elven girl, Lu Qingyi felt that Shi Yu was no different from raising a daughter.

"It's hard to say, but I've agreed with the Elf Queen that Qi should be cultivating by my side next. This Qi's physique should not be as simple as it seems on the surface. I'm more concerned about this. Her future achievements will definitely be immeasurable."

"Senior, what's that expression on your face."

Lu Qingyi was speechless and said, "I'm just worried that you won't be able to take care of her."

"She doesn't have any extraordinary power herself, so you can't train her with the same standards as other pets."

"Of course I know this. There's no problem, Senior. How are the gains from the natural ruins? Judging by your looks, you should have just come back."

Speaking of the gains from the natural ruins, Lu Qingyi smiled and said, "Nature is very abundant. Since you want to cultivate elves, I'll give you some natural resources as well. By the way, I don't want to watch or participate in the Dragon Palace City exchange competition for the next two days. I plan to take Lian to see other Courtyard Township ruins. I've already made an appointment with President Oran before."

Shi Yu happily said, "I don't plan to watch either. I'm going to the Space Emperor's ruins to hatch eggs first. Let Senior Ice Dragon preside over this. By the way, Senior, when you go, take Teacher Ying with you. It will be safer."

"Let Teacher Ying follow you. There aren't many people who know me here. On the contrary, you are"

"Judging from Courtyard Township's long-term hostile relationship with the Dark Night Forest and the Dragon Empire... you are more dangerous. Don't forget the relationship between the Dragon Empire and Dragon Palace City and Dong Huang."

The Dragon Emperor was the fourth generation legendary emperor of the Dong Huang Dynasty. Since he ascended the throne, Dong Huang and Dragon Palace City had always been on good terms.

The Dragon God a thousand years ago was already a demigod-level powerhouse.

Logically speaking, with the Dragon God's protection, even after the Dragon Emperor died, the Dong Huang Dynasty would not have collapsed again.

In fact, it was. Under the protection of Dragon Palace City, although the Dragon Emperor died, the Dragon Emperor Dynasty did not collapse, but continued to be passed down for a long time under the protection of Dragon Palace City.

However, if Dragon Palace City was also unable to protect itself, when the Dragon God did not have the energy to protect Dong Huang, then the Dragon Emperor Dynasty would be in danger.

At that time, the Eastern Totem countries directly联合 the Western Dragon Empire and other forces to launch a totem war against Dong Huang and Dragon Palace City at the same time. Dragon Palace City had to fight against the Dragon Empire, which also had demigod-level life, so it did not have time to protect Dong Huang.

This battle lasted for hundreds of years, causing a new round of totem turmoil.

It was not until the rise of the Space Emperor that he became the new generation of legendary beast tamers in Dong Huang and ended the turmoil again.

The Space Emperor even became the most influential legendary emperor in the Blue Planet by virtue of his own attributes, just because he established space teleportation arrays all over the Blue Planet at that time, which could instantly allow the Dong Huang and Dragon Palace City armies to reach all parts of the Blue Planet.

Therefore, it was normal for the Dragon Empire, as an invader from the West that was defeated by Dragon Palace City and Dong Huang, to have a bad relationship with Dragon Palace City and Dong Huang.

As the leader of this Dragon Palace City exchange activity, Shi Yu may have been targeted by the Dragon Empire.

Therefore, Lu Qingyi felt that it would be better to let the Gem Cat be Shi Yu's bodyguard.

"Don't worry about me," Shi Yu said. "Don't forget, I have the Dragon God's protection."

"Moreover... Su Su has already accepted the Cang Hai inheritance and inherited the Cang Hai ruins. With the identity of the master of the Cang Hai ruins, I can teleport to any Cang Hai ruins projection at any time. No one can leave me behind."

Just like the Guardian Water created by Su Su, before the energy is exhausted, it can easily help Qi resist overlord-level attacks.

The Guardian Water created by the Dragon God can also help Shi Yu resist the attacks of totems.

With such equipment, coupled with the Cang Hai ruins that can be teleported at will, it is extremely difficult for even a demigod to leave Shi Yu behind at this time.

It can be said that if Shi Yu can't escape with these equipment, then letting the Gem Cat protect him would be equivalent to killing one and getting one free.

It's just sending an extra cat head.

At present, Shi Yu has completely escaped the weak period of needing a bodyguard.

The world is so big that he can go alone.

"Wait?!" At this time, Lu Qingyi's delicate face showed a hint of confusion when she heard that Su Su had already accepted the Cang Hai ruins inheritance.

"Isn't that... isn't that the inheritance that only overlords can accept? Did you let it break through in advance for the World Championship?"

"Is your body okay?"

Contracting an overlord across levels would drain him dry.

However, when she thought of Shi Yu's monster physique, Lu Qingyi felt that her worry was superfluous.

"No, no, I just used the Time Fruit to卡 Bug and let Su Su temporarily reach the overlord level, awakening the Cang Hai ruins. In essence, it is still the monarch level and will not cause much burden."

"In addition, because of the strength reason, the inheritance was not fully received, just a part was received, inheriting the introductory Cang Hai skills."

Lu Qingyi: ???

Is the Time Fruit for you to use to卡 Bug?

Shi Yu smiled and said, "Now you should believe me, Senior. With the Dragon God's protection and the Cang Hai ruins, I won't be in trouble."

That night, a major event was also announced among the Elf Royal Family.

The elf royal girl Qi is about to leave the palace and follow Dong Huang Beast Tamer Shi Yu to cultivate.

As soon as this news was announced, it can be said that the entire Courtyard Township royal family was extremely shocked.

Shi Yu's name, because of the banquet at noon, has been very响亮 in the royal family.

Leading ten Dragon Palace City overlords, the creator of the mechanical phantom beast system, the first person under Dong Huang legend, with such titles, not to mention Qi, a problem girl without extraordinary power, even those overlord royal families may not be worthy of him.

And as the news of Qi passing the royal trial with the equipment sent by Shi Yu in the afternoon spread more and more widely, some people who were originally very confused were instantly silent, and then felt incredible and shocked by Shi Yu's handwriting.

Perhaps... this Shi Yu大佬 really doesn't care about Qi's state. After all, he just sent a piece of equipment, and Qi's combat power became the top ten among the new generation of Courtyard Township.

Since he can strengthen Qi, an Awakening-level elf who doesn't know skills, to this level, how strong should Shi Yu himself be.

All of a sudden, the Courtyard Township royal family became more curious about the true strength of Shi Yu, the first person under Dong Huang legend.

"Qi, you must follow Master Shi Yu to cultivate well, don't miss this opportunity, and be sure to be obedient," Master Gelin囑托 said.

At this time, she already knew the power of the Time Umbrella. This equipment can be completely called a legendary-quality·level 7 equipment. It can only be created by those legendary dwarves in the history of Courtyard Township.

And in the 2000-year history of the Courtyard Township Ancient Kingdom, such equipment can no longer be manufactured. If this equipment was not accidentally obtained by Shi Yu, but Shi Yu has a manufacturing channel, then Qi following Shi Yu, even if she cannot use extraordinary power in her life, her future achievements cannot be low.

"Okay!" Qi was full of energy.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, especially for Qi, and for Annies, Lier, Luo Yi and other elven geniuses.

After the royal family announced that Qi was about to leave with Shi Yu, Annies, Lier and others were extremely错愕.

Finally understood why Her Majesty the Queen and President Oran looked at them like that in the afternoon.

[It was clearly me first...] Equally错愕 was President Oran, because Her Majesty the Queen wanted her to take the legendary resource [Natural Fruit] from the natural ruins as Qi's farewell gift.

If Her Majesty the Queen was not supreme, President Oran would even think that Her Majesty the Queen was crazy.

Legendary resources can almost 1% cultivate an overlord, even transcendent races, it is possible to strengthen them to an overlord with legendary resources.

There is even a one-tenth chance to strengthen an overlord to a totem.

Moreover, it is a legendary resource [Natural Fruit] that fits the elves, is it for Shi Yu and Qi?

"Just do as you are told," Sylphra said indifferently.

Just a legendary resource.

It's not something precious.

Besides, Courtyard Township didn't lose anything. The fruit was originally obtained by itself.

The next day, before the Dragon Palace City exchange banquet began, President Oran took Qi to visit Shi Yu and handed Qi and the Natural Fruit to Shi Yu.

"This is" Shi Yu took the pomegranate-like green natural fruit and instantly recognized what resource it was through the third game of the illustrated book.

He was extremely surprised. Isn't this one of the two legendary resources that Senior Lu said she obtained in the natural ruins yesterday?

Due to the initial agreement, it was returned to Courtyard Township, and she only kept the Wind God Flower for herself.

"This is the legendary resource·Natural Fruit. It is a farewell gift from Her Majesty the Queen to Qi for leaving Courtyard Township. It can enhance Qi's affinity and control over natural energy. This is a physique, even if she doesn't have any extraordinary power, she can use the Natural Fruit. It can be said to be one of the few resources suitable for her," President Oran said.

Beside him, Qi was懵懵的 and did not expect that Her Majesty the Queen would send herself a legendary resource when she left.

Although everyone in Courtyard Township usually takes good care of herself, the level of care of legendary resources is obviously not what Qi could enjoy before.

Although Qi is a child, she is also very smart and knows that these changes were brought by Shi Yu.

"Thank Her Majesty the Queen for me. I will take good care of Qi." Shi Yu was not polite and took the Natural Fruit together.

This is indeed a good thing.

If all goes well, maybe you can use this to strengthen Qi to the pseudo-overlord level.

As for why it is the pseudo-overlord level, because if she completely digests the Natural Fruit, although she may not be able to obtain overlord-level combat power,

Her attainments in the power of nature, which far exceed that of ordinary overlords, she should be able to master.

After all, although she has no extraordinary skills, the natural affinity physique that the elves come with has been retained.

The life of the monarch level will undergo a kind of transformation after breaking through to the overlord level, becoming a natural affinity physique.

Even if they do not use the extraordinary power in their bodies to form skills, they have the ability to mobilize the power of nature to form elemental attacks.

Therefore, the vast majority of overlord-level lives will choose to cultivate the power of nature.

Mobilizing the power of nature to cooperate with skill attacks is the combat mode of the vast majority of overlords.

Only a small number of overlord lives give up cultivating the power of nature, of course, this is also because they may have stronger special powers, such as Buggy's power of imagination, Can Baby's power of life and death, and the Void Mantis's power of void.

Among them, the elves are born with a natural affinity physique. As soon as they are born, they can perceive the power of nature like other overlord-level lives, perceive the elemental particles wandering in the air, and Qi is no exception.

It's just that when their strength is weak, they can't mobilize them like real overlord lives.

And when the elves reach the overlord level, they don't need to practice specifically. The degree of control over the power of nature can be comparable to the years of hard work of ordinary overlords in the power of nature.

If Qi eats the Natural Fruit, then she should also have the natural physique of an overlord. Although she has no skills, she can easily mobilize the power of nature to attack.

This combat mode may be more dependent on the venue. When encountering abilities such as magic forbidden area, she will immediately grope around, which can be regarded as the weakest overlord, which is more restrictive than pure overlord physique.

But the advantage is that if Qi masters the power of nature, the Time Umbrella, in her hands, should be able to exert greater effectiveness.

The weapon, the elf's natural physique, and the item spirit, in the case of a three-in-one, can mobilize the power of nature to form attacks to a greater extent, exerting power far exceeding the upper limit of the Time Umbrella.

However, since Qi has now joined the team, Shi Yu feels that the Time Umbrella, a rough product made in a hurry, can be remade and let Rin and the others spend more energy on processing it.

President Oran left to prepare for the exchange competition, while Qi stayed nervously and happily, looking at Shi Yu.

"Following me to cultivate is very hard, you have to be mentally prepared."

"In addition, I am currently a sixth-level beast tamer, and my contract position is full, so I can't sign a contract with you for the time being."

"Since this fruit was given to you by Her Majesty the Elf Queen, then wait for a chance and you can take it. At that time, you should also be considered an overlord."

Overlord level!

Qi said, "Can I directly reach the overlord level from the Awakening level?"

Shi Yu smiled and said, "I guess it won't work, you have to digest it slowly, and it's not that the energy level and life level reach the overlord, but that you have the physique of the overlord. Note that it is the physique, not the body, you can only have the control over the power of nature that is not inferior to or even far exceeds the vast majority of overlords, but it is likely that you still have no extraordinary skills, so theoretically speaking, it can be regarded as the weakest overlord."

Qi: QAQ

"But at that time, you should be able to better exert the power of the Time Umbrella."

The elf's affinity for the power of nature can be comparable to the life of elements, and it is top-notch, not to mention the elf who ate the legendary exclusive resource of the Natural Fruit.

At that time, Qi's natural power cultivation degree should be enough to reach the level of the top overlord like the Sky Whale.

"In these days, you don't have to rush to train, relax first. From today, there will be an exchange activity between Dragon Palace City and your Courtyard Township. I will take you there to watch the battle. You first come to increase your knowledge and see the duel between real powerhouses."

"Okay!!" Qi nodded, listening to Shi Yu.

She didn't realize that Shi Yu was too lazy to care about her at this time and wanted to visit the Courtyard Township ruins as soon as possible, after all, time was tight...
