Final Lord

Chapter 347 White Cloud Mountain

"How is this going?"

Seeing that many of the harpy girls were almost crying from Heska's scolding, Wang Bufu quickly stepped forward and stopped Heska from continuing to reprimand them.

"Hesca, what happened?"

“My lord,” Heska took a deep breath and said with shame, “I have disappointed you. In this advancement, a total of thirty-six harpies failed to advance.”

All the harpies that failed to advance were on the Gale path. They wanted to advance to Tier 3 Ghost Banshees, but all failed.

Wang Bufu frowned and said, "Don't rush. It's harder for you to advance than for the cavemen. You need to jump back and forth between two different career paths, which is not easy to begin with."

"Is it because they haven't fully mastered the first-tier stealth and clone abilities?"

“No,” Heska said hastily. “They have already mastered their special skills. I have verified that each Whirlwind Hawk can successfully use invisibility and clones.”

"How could that be?" Wang Bufu asked in confusion, "With such a solid foundation, you shouldn't have failed to advance."

"It must be because they lacked determination and got distracted while advancing!" Heska flapped her wings in exasperation: "A bunch of good-for-nothings."

"Don't be so arbitrary." Wang Bufu slapped Heska on the head.

He bypassed Heska and entered the failed harpy, carefully observing it through the system.

"Hmm?" He frowned, immediately noticing the problem.

These harpies did indeed possess the abilities of invisibility and creating clones, but the abilities they possessed were all misused!

[Wind Spirit Concealment: Can only be activated when speed exceeds 15 points. Enters a brief stealth state, which is canceled upon attacking.]

【Wind Shadow Follows (Cooldown 120 seconds): Creates a phantom of an air element. The phantom has 10% of the caster's own attributes, and a maximum of three can exist at once.】

"I see... The special skill of the Phantom Banshee pathway is the utilization of dark elements."

However, the special skill they learned was the utilization of the element of air.

They were supposed to take a physics exam, but they studied math instead, so of course they failed.

Wang Bufu was not angry at all; on the contrary, he became even more excited.

In theory, achieving invisibility and illusion using air elements is far more difficult than using dark elements. The difficulty is comparable to the difference between middle school physics and high school mathematics.

One harpy like this is one thing, but if all thirty-six harpies are like this, then there must be something wrong.

The papers are identical; it's definitely plagiarism.

Wang Bufu asked curiously, "Tell me the truth, did you use tricks when you mastered your special skills?"

They had the guts to deceive Heska, but not the guts to defy the King.

The thirty-six whirlwind eagles looked at each other, then nodded in unison.

A harpy stepped forward, tears welling in her eyes: "My lord, blame me if you must."

We were originally the slowest progressing harpies. We watched as our sisters learned it one by one, but we just couldn't get the hang of it. Luckily, I discovered a way to use the wind to create illusions and invisibility, so I taught it to my sisters.

I thought the effects would be the same, but I didn't expect...

Waaaaah, it's all my fault.

Wang Bufu looked at the other person's name—[Rhine]
He was certain that this little harpy, like Uncle Ming, probably had no awakened personal talent, and it was very likely related to the element of air.

Heska trembled with rage upon hearing this. These defeated harpies used to belong to her tribe.

"You worthless wretches! I'll beat you to death!" Seeing Heska about to pounce, Wang Bufu quickly stopped her.

"Hey hey!"

Wang Bufu smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I understand your feelings and thoughts."

To be honest, their skill slots are full, and it's almost impossible to train them to learn any more skills. Attacking them won't help.

Upon hearing this, the thirty-six harpies paled instantly.

Their delicate wings drooped limply, tears welled in their amber eyes, and soft sobs escaped their throats. Several of the succubi had already huddled together tightly, on the verge of bursting into tears.

Seeing this, Wang Bufu quickly raised his hand to comfort him: "Don't be sad!"

His gaze swept gently over the group of dejected girls, a reassuring smile playing on his lips. "Every mistake has its merits; what is lost on one front may be gained on another. Since the die is cast, why not go with the flow?"

With that, he snapped his fingers lightly: "Don't worry, I have a brilliant plan."

"My lord!" Heska looked at Wang Bufu expectantly.

Although she said she wanted to fight, as the clan leader, she naturally cared deeply for her people.

The thirty-six harpies also secretly glanced at Wang Bufu, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Wang Bufu explained with a smile: "Among the harpies, there is a unit that utilizes the power of wind to the extreme. It is one of the best high-speed units and is called the Divine Wind Banshee."

Their strengths lie in speed and endurance.

Skilled at manipulating the element of air, they can use the power of the wind to soar through the sky without exerting any effort; they can even fly with their eyes closed.

It can travel a thousand miles a day without changing color, making it extremely suitable for long-distance raids.

The Banshee's maximum rank is only Epic Tier 2, but the role it can play is irreplaceable by many Legendary units.

Since they've already taken this step, it means they have the talent, so let them go down this path.

Their training level is already high enough; you can make up for the experience lost from failing to advance by taking them to farm monsters for two more days.

The only problem is that we lack a Tower of Qi Element, which is necessary for advancement.

As your lord, I will pave the way for you.

Heska, you're in charge of their experience points. I'm going to raid the Air Elemental Tower and come back.

"Yes, my lord! I'm so sorry to have troubled you. I thank you on behalf of the little ones." Heska was deeply moved.

"No need to be polite, it's just my duty. Blind Cat, gather the troops, let's go. Off to Baiyun Mountain!"

"Yes!"

……

Woohoo!

A day later, the sound of the undead truck echoed around Baiyun Mountain.

Wang Bufu looked at the thick white clouds covering the mountain and smiled slightly.

Baiyun Mountain, located about 15 kilometers west of Ghost Jump Cliff, is a special terrain with extremely complex natural conditions and belongs to a semi-chaotic area.

Thick clouds shroud Baiyun Mountain year-round, and many cloud-shaped monsters are found within them.

This was a popular dungeon for players in the previous life because Baiyun Mountain was rich in air element crystals.

Deep within Baiyun Mountain lies a priceless, top-tier elemental core, guarded by an epic-level overlord monster.

It's unlikely that you can snag a top-tier Qi element core, but getting some mid- or high-tier Qi element cores from the periphery shouldn't be a problem.

He carefully observed the density of the clouds and nodded to himself.

It was quite a coincidence; we arrived just in time for the ruling monster's rest period.

There's nothing more to say, let's go into the mountains!
