"Are you still planning to provoke a mutiny in the entire army and then escape?"
At the forefront of the team, Lin Ke sneered with disdain.
The long years of living in luxury had made these mages lose even a bit of vigilance.
The carriages were equipped with one magical monitor eye after another, capable of capturing sights and sounds, monitored by wild mages.
Now, in the eyes of many wild mages and commoner knights, Lin Ke was akin to a divine figure.
He had liberated their identities, allowing them to live freely, supporting themselves, without serving others.
To monitor a few pampered mages, those living at the bottom had plenty of methods.
They were Lin Ke’s eyes, Lin Ke’s ears.
But even after two days of marching, those mages did not dare to rebel.
Or, in other words, they were about to fall apart!
Previously, they wouldn’t have chosen carriages as a means of travel, and even if they did, it would have been in a leisurely manner.
But this was military marching.
Yet they could still ride in carriages; though bumpy, it was better than riding a horse or walking.
Many knights and wild mages were walking to conserve the stamina of the skeleton horses.
Just the first day left these mages exhausted, too tired even for meditation, let alone rebellion.
By the second day, they were even more enervated.
Wild mages fared slightly better, but the knights remained spirited.
"Buck of the same quality, in terms of mental willpower, knights are indeed superior."
Walking at the front of the army, Andor had to admit, Lin Ke was right about what he had said before.
That mages should also have strong physiques.
Otherwise, if they run out of magic power, they wouldn’t even be able to move.
However, just three days of marching made Andor realize Buck’s strength.
Some knights were not tired, but none of them could match Lin Ke’s vigor.
Lin Ke could even meditate while riding on the back of the skeleton horse.
Already at level twelve, Lin Ke’s aura was becoming increasingly unfathomable.
It’s important to know... Lin Ke’s bottleneck was at level eighteen.
This meant he could continue to advance as long as he kept meditating.
Of course, after level fifteen, it wasn’t that simple.
Lin Ke sorted out his thoughts.
Level fifteen, eighteen, twenty, twenty-one - these are four bottlenecks.
After level fifteen, those walking the path of godhood, if they have a deity of faith, can evolve from priest to great priest.
At level eighteen, they condense divinity and become a divine creature.
At level twenty, if they cannot ignite the condensed divinity into divine fire, they perish.
At level twenty-one, if they can condense the divine fire into a divine spark, they can become a deity and form divine duties based on characteristics.
If not, there’s still a chance to condense it later, but the further on, the more likely they are to be assimilated by their divine duties, forming a belief god without personality or humanity.
Similarly, those who walk legendary paths.
After level fifteen, they have the ability to fly and can be called a master.
After master, at level eighteen, they become powerful epic-level powerhouses; every one is an epic tale.
At level twenty, regardless of godhood or legendary path, they are known as starlight.
After comprehending rules, those on the profession path can entirely transform from a "master" to a "great master."
Such as blacksmith, master blacksmith, blacksmith family.
After level twenty, at level twenty-one, the complete mastery of specific or multiple rules leads to becoming a legend.
The birth of each legend is a tale of heroism and awe.
Therefore, at level fifteen, whether on the godhood path or the legendary path, there is a barrier.
Named "elementalization" or "rulification"!
At level fifteen, the body undergoes tremendous changes, with the power stored in the bloodline pouring into the body, forging a new physique. Official source is novel★fire.net
At this point, the wealthy and strong might choose a law affinity body, while ordinary powerhouses can only rely on absorbing elements to become elemental bodies.
Lin Ke thought deeply, finding it somewhat overwhelming.
If only Ove were still here.
As someone who had been there, and one of Lin Ke’s closest people, Ove’s guidance was multifaceted for Lin Ke.
And he was rich in experience.
However, thinking of Ove made Lin Ke’s expression turn cold.
This time, the Ratman Race, being the chief culprit, was bound to bear Lin Ke’s wrath for Ove’s fall.
The Wild Boar-men, as accomplices, were no exception.
In the Holy Life Alliance, Lin Ke dared not and could not lightly start a war.
But in the noble council, Lin Ke could act as he pleased.
That’s why Lin Ke chose to expand eastward this time.
To eliminate the Ratmen and Wild Boar-men before they could rise!
He glanced back at the sky, seeing the flickering silhouettes of large birds.
These were Sak birds.
Vaguely carrying some shadows above.
They were people from Great Wilderness City following behind, like Rica and Sophie, among others.
With their levels, even if Lin Ke encountered a deity on this trip to Beifeng Giant City, he could at least endure a few blows.
"Buck of the same quality, what are you looking at?"
Just then, White Light came over curiously.
"I’m looking at the ’Mountains’ in the sky," Lin Ke came to his senses and smiled at White Light.
"Mountains?" White Light asked in doubt: "Where do the mountains come from in the sky?"
Everyone’s attention was diverted.
