Chapter 522: New Content, Spirit Spell 2
Sarah and Vanessa had no objections with Ian taking over.
On the contrary, it seemed like they were trying to be a little more faithful to the orders of Ian.
It was quite a surprising one for Ian.
I thought that they would act a little full of pride
This was an attitude that was never seen in ordinary rankers.
However, Sarah and Vanessa were different.
The only things that seemed to matter to them were to play well in the game.
I dont know where this guy came from but, with Ian, we might be able to get past Linus.
Linus was the second-ranked user, and the 1st ranked magician in Germany.
But for Sarah, Ians skills seemed to be much better than Linus.
Im glad I met this guy in the Middle-Earth. If I met him in earth, his skills wouldnt have been that watchable.
Sarah misunderstood Ian as a starter who started the game a bit late.
She guessed the level of Ian being around mid 300s.
If Ian had reached the level of 400, there was no way that the German servers wouldnt mention it.
Of course, the level needed to enter the spirit dimension was 400, but she thought that he would have entered the dimension with some other route.
In addition, the gap of 50 levels in the Earth dimension could be covered with one or two-level difference in the transcendence level.
In any case, thanks to the orders of Ian, the twins could easily breakthrough the first gate.
Tring-!
[You have successfully cleared the first gate!]
[Contribution is being calculated.]
[Ian: 1,021 A+]
[Sarah: 995 A]
[Vanessa: 893 A]
[If the contribution is less or equal to D, then you will be dropped from the gate.]
[If you got dropped out due to lack of contribution, you will be able to try again.]
Arriving at the end of the first gate, the tightly closed iron gate opened and white light started to enter.
System messages kept coming.
[You have successfully completed the quest Summoner Pans test I (Career) (Linked)!]
[Transcendence experience of 100 has been earned.]
[Acquired fame of 100,000.]
[Remaining time: 5 minutes 24 seconds]
[Clear grade: A+]
[Cleared with A or higher grade.]
[Gained 30 spirit magic (transcendence).]
[Gained 12 summon magic (transcendence)]
Ian read the messages and looked very happy.
Both the spirit magic and the summon magic had increased a bit.
I get what I give in the spirit dimension.
When Ian entered the spirit dimension, the sum of all the spirits and the summoned magic was 40 to 42.
If one used it like that, it might not seem like a huge deal, but the stat was in transcendence terms.
The proficiency level 100:1 would translate into transcendence, so in the Earths system, it was nearly 4,000.
Ian opened his window and checked his stats after a long time.
[Spirit Magic: 127 (transcendence)]
[Summon Magic: 76 (Transcendence)]
In case of the summon magic, I gained more here than that of the earth system.
Ian was feeling very excited.
After getting through the gates of the test and gaining the Spirit magic, it was possible to use spirits in the battle again.
It was still a long way ahead, but if he could collect just 5 times the current stats, it could be used.
When Ian finished all the preparations, Ian glanced at Sarah and Vanessa.
Like Ian, the two of them too seemed like they were checking their stats.
Were going to the second gate right away, right?
The two of them nodded at the same time that Ian asked.
Obviously!
Lets go until the last gate!
Seeing the two sisters all excited, Ian smiled.
These two are simpletons too.
Breaking past the first gate, Ian found out a few things about the twins.
He realized why the two of them stuck together.
Vanessa does a lot of physical. But she lacks gaming sense and instant judgments.
According to Ian, Vanessa seemed like a top-class player with just control.
Though it was a bit exaggerated, he could see much difference when he compared her to himself.
The problem was that the control was limited to one dimension.
Maybe if I am a beginner with no skills or summons, and I go against Vanessa on a one-on-one PK, then Im not sure if I can win
However, Vanessa was lacking a lot apart from control and skills.
Without the orders of Sarah, it would have been hard to be rankers.
Sarah, on the other hand, lacks the physical. Instead, she has a huge outlook and her game sense is amazing. Excellent application skills too
The physical of Sarah wasnt so bad.
However, if compared to the ones in the top 10 rankings, it wasnt enough.
The game understanding and sense of Sarah wasnt lacking and was top class.
Vanessa worked perfectly according to the orders of Sarah.
And Sarah perfectly supported Vanessa with her summons.
It was a twin duo battle.
However, there was no way for the party to not have limits.
Because of Sarahs weak physical, she couldnt bring out the best play of Vanessa.
If Vanessas physical was 100, Sarah was only able to understand 80 to 90 of it.
It was because she hadnt ever come across 100 abilities.
So even though she could give better order, there were limits on them.
However, Ian was different.
Ian had the ability to understand all the abilities of Vanessa and had more game sense than Sarah and had better situational judgment.
That was why Ians orders could raise the parties ability to a higher level.
The twins who saw a new person were getting addicted to the orders of Ian.
What is it, Ian? Lets move fast!
Right, right!
Vanessa put her leg into a huge muddy puddle, and she didnt realize it.
You arent tired, right?
She tried to provoke Ian.
Ian smiled and raised his thumb.
Nice attitude, Vanessa. Lets run ahead!
Then came the new system message in front of the party.
Tring-!
[Start of Summoner Pans Test II (Career) (Linked)]
[Spirit Silp has been summoned.]
[Spirit Salamander has been summoned.]
[Spirit weapon Pillar of Earth will disappear.]
* * *
The first gate of Pan, which was a narrow and long passage.
The second gate was entirely different.
Are you going to climb that tower?
At the mumbling of Sarah, the second gate was a huge tower.
The tower was of great height; it seemed to be around 20 to 30 story high.
Subsequently, in front of the group of Ian, a quest related to the second gate was created.
Tring-!
-Summoner Pan Test II (Career) (Linked)
After passing the first gate, you have the chance to challenge the second gate.
At the second gate, you will be given a new spirit (Spirit weapon).
You must go through the gate using the given spirit, and if any of the spirit given to the party dies, then you will fail to pass the gate.
Successfully kill the contaminated spirits and reach the entrance of the third gate.
Quest Difficulty: C+
Quest Condition:
The user who has received the quest Summoner Pans Test II.
A summoner class or a summoner class member in the party.
Time limit: 20 minutes
*Breakthrough all the monster waves to reach the third gate and complete the quest.
Reward:
Transcendence experience of 125
Fame of 100,000
So the choice of choosing a spirit is gone?
Ian who read the quest window was feeling intrigued.
It was expected what spirit would be given to him.
As Ian had thought, system messages suddenly came to his sight.
Tring-!
[Water Spirit, Undine has been summoned.]
[All the unique abilities of the item that were limited will be restored (Items wont be restored)]
Oh oh!
The voice of Vanessa who was excited could be heard.
Ian smiled upon hearing Vanessa.
Yeah. I want to use the unique abilities attached to the item.
Ian seemed to like the place of Pans Gateway.
He never experienced this before; this was a fresh dungeon.
The dungeons which needed the use of mind were much more interesting than the simple breakthrough dungeon battles.
Items stats only restore their unique abilities at 0.
Ian was thinking and then changed his gear.
[Item Judgement of Spirit King item has been removed.]
[Item Bloody Revenge has been equipped.]
[Item Dragon Shield has been equipped.]
The biggest drawback of the dragon shield equipment was that it greatly reduced the ability of two-handed weapons that were worn.
However, in the current situation where the stats were all set to 0, there was no weapon as efficient as the shield.
The indigenous ability attached with the spirit king is surely great but enough to create a variable like the Bloody Revenge.
Ian who was done selecting his items looked over at Sarah and Vanessa to see what king of spirits and weapons they were given.
Vanessa was given a gnome, and Sarah was given the staff of fire.
He also realized another fact.
The spirits and the spirit weapons werent given randomly.
Water had been given to Ian who had wind, and Vanessa who was a fire had been given land.
Lastly, Sarah who was fire had been given land.
They were given the opposite of the attribute they chose at the first gate.
Ian once again felt that the combination that was given at the first gate was the most important one.
Since the first gateway was well balanced, the second would be well balanced too.
Ian smiled while looking at the two sisters.
Are you ready?
The twins answered immediately,
Go!
Obviously!
* * *
If the Fire attribute salamander was a spirit with magic attacks, then the Earth spirit gnome was a pure tanker.
The wind spirit Silp was an offensive supporter, and the water spirit Undine was a full-on support spirit.
-Undine (Water spirit)
Spirit Power: 0/200
Attribute: Water
Rank: Minor Spirit
Summon Duration: 250 minutes (Recall summon time: 300 minutes)
Attack: 65
Defense: 105
Agility: 67
Intellect: 185
Vitality: 3,120
Unique ability
*Blessing of Water (30-second cooldown)
-Blessing of water creates a thin shield on its target. The shield absorbs all the damage and heals the target with the absorbed amount.
The shield lasts for 3 seconds.
*When the spirit power reaches MAX, it evolves to a higher spirit.
(Each time a spell that requires a water attribute is summoned, a certain amount of spirit power is gained.)
*The higher the summoners summoned magic, the longer will be the duration.
Ian was very fond of the unique ability of Undine.
On the first gate, there were no unique abilities available. The spirits were the main dealers now its my turn.
Taking advantage of the unique powers of the Bloody Revenge and the Dragon Shield, Ian was confident to exert more power than all the spirits together.
For that reason, the unique ability of Undine which was support was the most efficient for Ian.
It would be much more helpful to support Ian than to use offensive magic.
Ian started to move into the tower and suggested something to Sarah.
Sarah.
Huh?
I think it is better for you to see the orders this time.
At the unexpected suggestion of Ian, Sarah couldnt help but blink.
Why so?
I dont know the unique abilities that are attached to the equipment that you have. Sarah, you, on the other hand, you will know the unique abilities of Vanessa.
That is true.
So this time, Sarah. Ill leave the orders to you.
Well, then
Sarah, who received an order position from Ian nodded her head.
There was nothing wrong with it.
However, Ians words werent done yet.
Instead, give me a free role.
!
Ill clear the front for you.
Free Role was a term that was used in soccer, it literally meant unlimited position.
Ian would be able to stir around the battlefield freely, regardless of orders and positions.
A position only given to the ace of the team.
Ian was going to head into the game at full speed.
