Chapter 126: Treating with National Rites

lingering fear, panting heavily, and beads of cold sweat trickled down his back.The pain of death just now was so real, he thought he had really died.After he got up, he touched his arms and cheeks,...Seeing Lu Kong's expression solemn, Zhan Fu laughed and said: "You are not even at the first stage yet. Consider the other races on the Hunter Continent more carefully. Those powerful races have already existed in the online game for countless years. Where do they need you to consider now"

Hearing this, Lu Kong also came to his senses.

Yes, it's only been a few days since I took the public test.

Give him some time, and he may not lose to the strong of other races.

Thinking of this, Lu Kong's heart felt a little lighter.

He opened his mouth and asked, "By the way, master, I'm level 10 now. Are there any new skills I can learn"

Zhan Xu lightly smiled and said, “I thought you had forgotten. There really is a new skill to learn.”

A panel appeared in front of the battle axe, on which were skills that could be learned.

【Slashing Strike (Level 1)]

:

Wield your weapon and launch a powerful attack, dealing 120% damage to three targets in front of you. Cooldown: 4 seconds.

Land and air decisively learn.

After mastering the skill, Lu Kong used minor skill stones and primary skill stones to upgrade Shunpi Zan to the maximum level.

【Slashing Strike (Level 8)] : Wield your weapon and launch a powerful attack, dealing 190% damage to three targets in front of you. Cooldown: 4 seconds

Every level increase grants a 10% damage boost. It's not much, but it's something.

At minimum, you can attack with skills once every four seconds, which is also an improvement.

Of course, this is for land and air.

After all, land and air still possess a sweeping attack with a more powerful range.

If it's other warrior players, a sweep attack is probably their only area-of-effect attack at level 10.

Of course, it's a powerful skill.

After completing the skill, Lu Kong was satisfied.

After bidding farewell to the warhammer, he went straight to the tavern and started playing games.

…………

But just recently.

Inside the Dàxiā Imperial Palace.

After Xia Yan and Wang Bing confirmed, they directly left the game.

She wore a plain white long dress, lying in bed, her slender and graceful figure was on full display.

After getting out of bed, Xia Yan walked out of the bedroom.

In the bedroom, two maids were waiting.

As the third princess, Xia Yan was already extremely favored within the palace.

Her two maidservants had grown up with her, though they were master and servant, they were as sisters to each other.

As the princess's close handmaidens, both of them were top-notch in terms of their figure, appearance, and scholarship.

Seeing Xia Yan walk out, one of the maidservants, Wang Yaoyao, said in surprise, "Your Highness, how did you come out so soon It shouldn't be time yet, right"

Another maid named Lin Ming was also looking at Xia Yan with some curiosity.

Xia Yan hurriedly said, "There's an urgent matter, I have to see Father Emperor."

Wang Yao Yao and Lin Ming exchanged glances. They rarely saw Xia Yan so anxious.

The two people hurriedly began to dress up Xia Yan, and after that, Xia Yan left the sleeping palace in a hurry with the two of them.

Outside Xia Yan's bedroom, several female soldiers in the attire of the Daxia army were standing guard.

Upon seeing Xia Yan, they hastily saluted: "Greetings to Your Highness, the Third Princess!"

They all know that Xia Yan is the only public tester in the imperial family, deeply cherished by Emperor Xia and naturally respected.

And they themselves were sent by the Summer Emperor to protect Xia Yan's safety as a precaution.

Although Xia Yan wasn't too worried about her own safety.

She is no longer a woman who can be easily manipulated.

After becoming a player, various attributes were enhanced, making her physique stronger than that of male special forces.

Moreover, as a sorceress, she also had her own self-preservation methods, possessing extraordinary spells.

But since her father cared for her, she naturally wouldn't refuse.

Xia Yan nodded and said, "I'm going to see my father. Would you mind escorting me there"

Several female soldiers looked at each other, then nodded.

The Xia Emperor had already given orders that matters concerning Xia Yan were to be prioritized above all else!

One female soldier drove a military vehicle over.

Xia Yan and two maids got into the military vehicle.

The military vehicle drove towards the Emperor's sleeping quarters.

It is almost seven o'clock in the morning, and the sky is still somewhat dark.

Outside the Xia Emperor's Palace, several soldiers were guarding it.

Upon seeing the military vehicles approaching, several soldiers frowned.

These soldiers are from the Xuanniao Army.

They take turns having time off, responsible for guarding the Emperor Xia's safety.

After all, with demonic energy invading now and players even having assassins among them.

As a commoner, the Xia Emperor naturally needs higher-level guards.

As for the Xuan Bird Army, they are clearly the most suitable choice.

Several Xuan Bird Army soldiers saw Xia Yan, and their originally furrowed brows immediately relaxed.

They bowed respectfully: "Greetings, Your Highness!"

Xia Yan nodded slightly: "Father is inside"

The attendant who had been waiting outside hurried to say, "Your Highness, Your Majesty is resting."

Xia Yan said, "Notify Father that I have important matters to see him!"

"Now" The waiter was taken aback.

But the waiter soon remembered the Summer Emperor's instructions.

If it's the Third Princess who wishes to see him, he should be notified immediately.

After all, everyone in the palace knows that the third princess is a public figure.

Now the Summer Emperor's attitude towards the Third Princess has made several princes jealous!

There are even rumors circulating that a female emperor may once again appear in Daxia.

Know that in the entire 3,000-year history of the Xia Dynasty, out of dozens of emperors, only three female emperors have appeared.

And for a woman to become emperor, it speaks volumes about her capabilities.

Now, Princess Xia Yan might become the fourth Empress of Daxia.

The attendant gritted his teeth and respectfully said, "Please wait a moment, Your Highness, I shall go report to His Majesty!"

After finishing his words, he turned and entered the sleeping quarters. Just a minute later, a servant hurried out and addressed Xia Yan with even more respect: “Your Highness, Your Majesty requests your presence!”

Xia Yan nodded slightly, then walked into the bedroom.

The waiter was outside, closing the door.

Inside the bedroom, the lamps were already lit. Xia Yan saw Emperor Xia wearing his pajamas, sitting on the bed at this moment, with a trace of drowsiness still on his face.

As the emperor of Daxia, he was naturally busy.

I didn't go to sleep until 2 am.

Given how often they are called now, it's clear that they are exhausted.

Although Emperor Xia was weary, his face still bore the majesty of an emperor. He looked at Xia Yan, a kind smile on his face: "Yan'er, why did you suddenly come to see your father"

When Xia Yan saw Emperor Xia, a smile appeared on her usually cold face.

She first bowed, then smiled and said: "Father, Yan'er has something to report, all good things!"

Xia Huang's expression changed, becoming serious: "Is it about the game"

Xia Yan nodded. "Mmm!"

The Summer Emperor was already seated on the edge of his bed, opening his mouth to say, "It's about that Lü Kong again, isn't it"

Xia Yan smiled: "Father, you are so smart."

The Summer Emperor shook his head and smiled wryly, "Every time something major happens, isn't it always because of them It's a pity, I just can't find anyone else. Otherwise, my father would definitely treat them with the utmost respect."

Before Lu Kong ascended to Level 10, the Xia Emperor naturally received the news.

He was naturally overjoyed at the time.

With an additional 50 million public beta slots, there might be a few more strong players emerging from Daxia.

If Xia Shi could provide a few more public testers, of course that would be best.

As the emperor, the Xia Emperor naturally also hoped to become a public tester.

Thus, in the future, he will also be able to better lead the people of Daxia and walk at the forefront of the new era.

Xia Yan heard this and couldn't help but smile: "Father Emperor is probably truly being treated with state etiquette now."

"Oh What do you mean" Xia Huang looked at Xia Yan in surprise.

He understood Xia Yan. Xia Yan always spoke with evidence and never exaggerated.

What big things did the land and air forces accomplish this time

Xia Yan said with a serious expression: "Lu Kong obtained the technology of controllable nuclear fusion and related industries through the game."

"What!" Even the usually composed Emperor Xia stood up abruptly, his eyes wide with surprise.

He was breathing a little heavily, and looking at Xia Yan again, he asked, "Really!"

Xia Yan was completely unsurprised by the Summer Emperor's astonishment.

She smiled and said, "Father, how could I possibly deceive you"

The Summer Emperor clenched his hands and said, "Then can you contact land and air Trade this technology"

Xia Yan chuckled lightly, "Father, I haven't finished yet. Lu Kong has generously offered this technology to our Great Xia for free."
