Chapter 98 The Queen Arrives
Chapter 98 The Queen Arrives
As soon as the magic circle was inscribed, Lynn immediately had a feeling.
That is the perception of one's own teleportation limit.
Lynn roughly estimated that he could teleport up to about 100 meters at most.
Moreover, the longer the distance, the greater the mana required.
Lynn simply engraved the corresponding teleportation array next to the first teleportation array.
Anyway, he was just grinding for proficiency. The closer the distance, the less mana he consumed, and the more times he could grind.
The magic array has been inscribed.
With a thought, Lynn appeared next to the second teleportation array.
During the teleportation, Lynn could feel his magical power disappearing.
Lynn then understood the mana consumption mechanism of the teleportation array.
He had once used Violet's teleportation array, and at that time he thought that the magic power in his hands was the energy source to activate the array.
But now, looking back, that idea was completely wrong.
The mana consumption of a teleportation array is terrifying; how could he possibly manage with the meager mana on his fingertips?
That was at best a key that allowed him to activate the magic circle.
Every time he uses the teleportation array within Nareel City, the mana consumed is deducted directly from Violet's account.
Does that mean Violet knew every time he used the teleportation array?
Lynn stroked his chin and pondered for a moment.
It seems I can't use her teleportation array lightly anymore; it's a bit of a privacy breach.
Lynn was lost in thought, constantly using the teleportation array on the ground.
Finally, after teleporting back and forth ten times, the ethereal elemental mana in his body was completely depleted.
To fully recover, one can only wait for the body to slowly absorb the external virtual elements, a process that takes about 24 hours.
"It seems it will take more than three months to advance."
Lynn stroked his chin, somewhat dissatisfied with the speed.
For example, a promotion to a different profession can be accomplished in just a few days.
That's the downside of promotion within the same profession; it takes way too much time.
However, for other extraordinary individuals who choose to advance in the same profession, being able to advance in three months is already an astonishing feat.
But with Lynn, he still felt it was a bit slow.
Lynn decided to try his luck with the Leyline Warriors.
Just as I was thinking.
There was a sudden knock on the dormitory door.
Lynn opened the door to her room, walked to the living room entrance, and then opened the bedroom door.
He was a royal guard.
"Lord Lynn, Her Majesty the Queen summons you to the palace."
In addition, Her Majesty the Queen said that if it is inconvenient for you at the moment, you can come when you are free.
Lynn was taken aback.
Did Eleanor want to see me?
Could it be that you're feeling unwell again?
However, he didn't sound very anxious.
But let's go take a look anyway.
After all, I don't have anything to do right now.
Lynn immediately followed the royal guards and got into the carriage.
We drove out of the campus.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of Grey Castle.
Step onto the long staircase
Entering the palace.
Walk through the corridor.
Enter the throne room.
Lynn saw Eleanor slumped weakly on the throne.
Eleanor lay sprawled on the throne, and when Lynn arrived, she weakly raised one hand.
She laughed shakily, "Haha, my Paladin, I've finally seen you again! I now command you... ugh, ugh, it hurts so much~~~"
Eleanor's hand suddenly fell limply to the ground.
She slumped helplessly on the throne, like a salted fish that had lost its dreams.
Lynn's eyebrows twitched involuntarily.
This guy is clearly in so much pain, how can he still make time to come back?
That queen... she's such an idiot.
Lynn waved for the guards and housekeeper at the door to leave the throne room.
Since he was now a Paladin, second only to Eleanor herself in power within the palace, the servants obediently withdrew.
Seeing that no one was around, Lynn strode up to the throne.
He knelt down on one knee and placed his hand on Eleanor's lower abdomen.
"Your Majesty, I apologize for the offense."
The moment his hand touched Eleanor, a refreshed expression appeared on her face.
"Whoosh~ So comfortable~"
Eleanor instinctively grabbed Lynn's hand, her face filled with ecstasy.
Special energy detected.
[Absorbing...]
Your forbidden mercury (Earthfire Python) is undergoing changes...
[The body of the forbidden mercury (the fire spirit Salamander) is coalescing...]
Lynn closed her eyes.
Another anomaly occurred in the sea of consciousness.
As the surging energy within Eleanor continued to flow into her body, the colossal creature in the still sea continued to grow.
Originally, it was just the shell of a large black lizard, but now it is gradually becoming more terrifying and larger.
Its scales gradually became larger and thicker, and its texture gradually developed into something resembling a stone mixed with metal.
The claws gradually became sharp and large.
Suddenly, a pair of wings grew out of its back.
Lynn's eyes widened.
This isn't a lizard at all, it's a living black dragon!
Although he already knew about the power of the Cataclysmic Forbidden Mercury, the feeling of seeing a black dragon appear alive before his eyes was still extremely shocking.
The scales of the fire spirit Salamander are evolving.
Current progress (1/10000)
[Please note that on the day your scales fully evolve, the soul of the fire spirit Salamander will devour you.]
Lynn was initially a little anxious.
Upon seeing the message notification, my restless heart gradually calmed down.
It seems it won't be that quick.
Lynn continued to absorb the energy from Eleanor's body.
Meanwhile, the scales on the enormous black dragon were gradually covered with a layer of glaze similar to obsidian.
Eleanor, completely drained, giggled and released Lynn's hand.
Only two of these scales have evolved.
[Scale Evolution Progress (2/10000)]
Lynn breathed a sigh of relief.
It appears that he can alleviate Eleanor's pain 5,000 times more.
This is a bit rushed, but it should be enough time.
He was determined to help Eleanor escape her misery completely.
This is not only for obtaining forbidden mercury of catastrophic value.
Lynn glanced at Eleanor, who was completely unsuspecting and asleep on the throne.
After all, this queen is kind of adorably silly.
He took out a piece of clothing from his storage ring and draped it over her shoulders.
Lynn then stepped down from the throne and strolled through the hall, reading a book on pharmacology.
About an hour passed.
Eleanor finally woke up.
She groggily climbed up from the throne, looking somewhat tired and listless.
But when she saw Lynn quietly reading a book under the throne, she instantly jumped off the throne.
"Clang! Clang! Her Majesty the Queen is fully recovered!"
Eleanor deliberately struck what she thought was a cool pose.
Lynn was speechless.
He put the "Principles of Pharmacology" back into his ring and bowed deeply.
"Your Majesty, you are awake."
Seeing Lynn so serious, Eleanor touched her face somewhat embarrassedly.
"Actually, my dear minister, you don't have to be so serious... ah no, I mean you can relax a bit more, like, like the relationship between me and Minister Violet."
As she finished speaking, Eleanor's voice grew softer and softer.
