Loser System and Berserker Me

Chapter 167: Quickened Salvation

System 12345 thought that it would be another easy battle.

So far, its host had conquered all capture targets without a hitch, achieving a perfect streak. There was not a single person who refused to devote themself to him.

But this time, Weryomahners was showing intense fear, but her loyalty wasn’t going up at all. Instead, she was anxiously fleeing.

【Wait, my host. Did you screw up?!】

System 12345 was appalled. Did the dog training fail?

【This is bad!】

Weryomahners isn’t just anyone. She is Tsenpo Ling’s senior, the disciple of the Tibetan Empire’s chief archmage! If she reports this matter to Tsenpo Ling and the chief archmage, my host’s favorability with them will plummet, making it difficult for him to tackle the main storyline!

Not to mention that it’ll put my host in danger!

The Lizard Queen and Rajmaya’s mediation might not be enough to save him, and if they finds out that he has deflowered Asudo on top of that…

What should I do?

System 12345 felt as anxious as ants on a searing pot.

Just then, it noticed something.

【Eh? Weryomahners is heading southward instead of eastward? Hm, there might just be a chance to turn things around…】

If Weryomahners had escaped eastward, heading straight back to the Tibetan Empire’s capital, there would be no way to turn things around anymore. But now…

【Looks like she has run in the wrong direction out of fluster…】

If that’s the case…

【My host, you absolutely can’t let her escape! You’ll be a goner if she talks about you!!!】

System 12345 screeched.

【CHASE HER! GRAB HER AND TAME HER!】

System 12345 indicated Weryomahners’ whereabouts on the minimap.

Worried that Shu Yichao couldn’t catch up with her, it even issued a new mission.

【Raise Weryomahners’ fear of you to 30.】

It was not a difficult mission, since Weryomahners’ fear of Shu Yichao was currently at 29. Needless to say, the reward was something to boost his speed.

“Hm?”

Miazova sensed a mana pulsation from the grimoire in its hands. Curious, it flipped it open and saw a new spell.

Wrathful Gale?”

To its surprise, this spell was easy to learn, and it had no glaring flaws other than its high mana consumption. Furthermore, it looked like it could be casted through the grimoire too.

“A support spell, eh?” Miazova raised its hand and attempted to cast it.

Shu Yichao, who was having his fun zapping down enemies, suddenly felt as light as a feather, and his movement speed surged.

He felt like he was whizzing down the road on a motorcycle. Frenzied wind gushed at his face. The scenery ahead rushed up to him before swiftly retreating behind him.

“WOOOO!!! This feels good!” Shu Yichao laughed in delight.

On the other hand, Little Patola’s garrison troops could hardly bring themselves to laugh.

What was even more terrifying than lightning?

Lightning that appeared and disapepared out of nowhere, moving at a speed so fast that it was impossible to dodge!

Miazova’s Wrathful Gale increased Shu Yichao’s speed so much that one could only see his after images.

Little Patola’s garrison troops found themselves faced with a lightning serpent that whizzed across the city at a speed beyond what they could keep up with. It would appear on the city wall at one moment, only to appear in the royal palace several streets down the next moment.

They couldn’t fathom what was behind the lightning serpent—was it a demon or a ghost?

They only knew that wherever the lightning serpent appeared, miserable deaths followed.

The soldiers could be shouting frantically to their allies while holding back the terracotta soldiers at one moment, but as soon as the lightning serpent zapped past, all that was left was silence.

All living beings vanished, leaving just charred corpses and a nasty stench behind.

“MONSTER!!!”

“DEMON!!!”

“GHOST!!!”

The surviving soldiers screeched in despair.

They were so afraid that they tearfully swung their sabers and spears around, hoping to somehow stop the enemy whom they could hardly see.

What was scarier was that Miazova’s Wrathful Gale wasn’t just targeted on Shu Yichao.

A number of terracotta soldiers and ghost horsemen received the buff too.

They flitted across the city like phantoms in the shadow, moving so quickly that they stirred up an ominous wind. Many garrison troops felt a strong gale blowing against them before abruptly collapsing to the ground, their necks slitted.

Rather than fighting a war, Little Patola’s soldiers felt like they were up against supernatural forces instead! What were they supposed to do against enemies whom they couldn’t even see?

Just like that, their forces were being whittling down at a terrifying speed.

“How is this happening?!”

Little Patola’s king trembled in a hidden corner of his palace as he struggled to make sense of what was happening. The situation had surpassed his wildest imagination.

I thought that the Tang army’s terracotta soldiers are supposed to be weak? We should have been able to fight them 1:10 easily!

How did our defense line get breached all of a sudden?

And that lightning storm that followed nearly wiped out all our troops. Is this divine retribution?

Right now, the king had already abandoned all thoughts of accruing merit or remaining loyal to the Tibetan Empire. He was only hoping for one thing.

I am at least a king. The heavenly soldiers should at least take me a a prisoner, right?

Hu hu, hu hu!

Just then, he heard the violent howls of a wind outside the palace. WIth a loud ‘bam’, the palace doors were blown into bits.

A lightning serpent surged in.

“I surr—”

Bzt!

He never got to finish his sentence.

Little Patola had fallen!

“Amazing, my grandson!”

Shu Yichao whizzed back to Miazova’s side after having his fun.

“Incredible! Looks like you have managed to roll Great Gale!” Shu Yichao exclaimed.

Great Gale had been one of the strongest spells in Beacons of the Otherworld, and it looked like this mod had further buffed the spell. It was thanks to this spell that they were able to end this battle so quickly and one-sidedly.

Great Gale?

Miazova was stunned.

He’s talking about that AOE speed enhancement spell I just cast, right? Isn’t it Wrathful Gale?

But when it looked at Little Patola, which looked ravaged by a furious gale, it had to admit that Shu Yichao’s description was fitting.

“Heh! Who do you think I am, my grandson?” Miazova smirked as it stowed away the grimoire. “Come and kowtow to your almighty grandfather!”

“Scram!” Shu Yichao flicked a middle finger at Miazova.

“Let’s go! We shall attack Great Patola before Great Gale’s effect wears off!”
