Chapter 75 [The Love Between Horsemen and Horses]
After the private chat ended, Su Yu spent 500 psychic coins to teleport to Oran City.
Buzz——
The teleportation magic circle erupted with a deafening roar.
Along with the dazzling white light, Su Yu's figure disappeared into the huge magic circle.
Teleportation is generally accompanied by some negative status.
For example, Su Yu now developed symptoms of dizziness, nausea, and unsteadiness after being teleported.
But Su Yu was already prepared.
After drinking a bottle of [Phase Potion] purchased from the portal mage, his dizziness symptoms were immediately reduced by more than half.
At this moment, a system prompt arrived on time:
"Ding! Congratulations on successfully starting the main plot [Saint of Oran City 1/100]."
"Task requirement: Go to 213 Pinecone Street to meet Tina."
"Reward: experience value x200."
"[Saint of Oran City] Ah!" Su Yu sighed slightly as he looked at Oran City in front of him.
The first expansion pack has a total of four main storylines, one each for Tina and the Princess, and two for the rebels.
Unexpectedly, in this life, he would wrap up the two main storylines of the victorious side, and the rebels didn’t know which lucky player would be able to receive them.
"Come, Tima, go see your master."
Su Yu patted Dima's neck and walked along the street towards the city.
The main plot is more difficult to complete, and the hidden tasks in the side plot are slightly easier. So Su Yu decided to complete the branch line "The Endless Love between People and Horses" first, and then focus on the main line.
Oran City is a large city in the southwest of the empire, with a permanent population of 300,000 to 400,000.
This place is far away from the flames of war, so when walking on the street, there is singing and dancing all around, and people have smiles on their faces.
In the warrior guild, Su Yu found the warrior supervisor, the beautiful woman Quinn.
Outside the guild gate, Quinn looked at Tima with a headache: "Adventurer, your guess is correct. Tina did leave this horse in the village in order to become a unicorn knight."
"Tina is also very reluctant to part with this horse. There is a deep relationship between them. But there is no way. With the pride of unicorns, the knight will never be allowed to have another mount."
Dima seemed to be able to understand people's words, and her head was lowered to the ground, listlessly.
Su Yu shrugged: "Then what should we do? Now this little mare doesn't want to eat or drink, and is getting thinner and thinner. If this continues, she will definitely get sick. If she dies of illness, wouldn't Tina be even more uncomfortable?"
When Dima heard Su Yu's words, she cooperated and showed weakness, swaying in the wind as if she might fall down at any time.
"How about this? I call Tina here and let her decide?" Quinn stroked her painful forehead.
"Okay, I think so too."
In the third round of the mission, Tina came to the Warriors Guild and met Tima.
"Oh, oh, oh, Anna, I miss you so much!" Tina hugged Tima's neck and cried very sadly.
"Anna" is the name she gave Dima.
Two lines of clear tears flowed from Dima's eyes, and she neighed in pain.
One person and one horse hugged each other and cried together.
Quinn folded her arms and looked at this sad scene, not knowing what to say.
After a long time, she sighed: "Tina, it's useless for you to cry all the time. It won't solve the problem. You have to think about what to do in the future."
"I have decided!" Tina stopped crying and stood up straight firmly: "I will take Anna to the Unicorn Army Camp and let her be my future mount!"
"Are you crazy?" Quinn was shocked: "Joining the Unicorn Legion with an ordinary horse? Your legion commander will never agree!"
"It's okay." Tina said firmly: "I want to prove to the legion commander that the 'Unicorn Knight' is a knight, not a unicorn! As long as I ride Anna and defeat a regular Unicorn Knight, I am qualified to be a member of the Legion!”
Then she looked at Su Yu with her big eyes red from crying: "Adventurer, are you willing to help me?"
But at this moment, she recognized Su Yu: "It's you, Nemesis?! I didn't expect you to really come to Oran City to see me!" (She had focused all her attention on Dima just now and didn't see it. Su Yu.)
"Yes, it's me." Su Yu smiled, walked forward and took Tina's little hand:
"Let's solve Anna's problem together. Don't worry, I will do my best to help you!"
"Thank you." Tina's cheeks flushed.
The next 3-8 ring tasks are very simple for Su Yu, because they are all monster-fighting tasks.
Su Yu accompanied Tina to kill wild monsters, challenge elites, and eliminate bosses.
After killing monsters, Tina harvested a large amount of materials. With these materials, Tina found an enhancer named [Kelly] in the city and enhanced her entire set of equipment.
The whole body is +6, sparkling!
While improving herself, Tina also didn't forget to improve Tima's attributes.
She commissioned the best blacksmith in the city to build a suit of armor for Tima, and soaked Tima in the blood of monsters.
After being soaked in essence and blood, Tima's attributes were greatly improved!
In the past, Tima ran slowly and carried very little weight. Su Yu was a little out of breath while carrying a full body of leather armor.
After being upgraded, Tima is now wearing armor, and Tina, who is carrying a full body armor and holding a huge lance, can walk like flying and run like a tiger.
In the ninth round of the mission, Tina officially challenges the real Unicorn Knight.
Oran City Center Arena.
The arena was crowded, and a large number of residents from the city came to watch the game.
On one side of the duel was the talented girl Tina, who rode an ordinary horse;
On the other side was the battle-hardened female knight Riel, who rode a pure white unicorn;
In the minds of ordinary residents, Tina, who rode an ordinary horse, represented the grassroots people, while Riel, who rode a pure white unicorn, represented the nobles.
The official betting odds were set at 1.2:3.6, with Riel winning at 1:1 and Tina winning at 3:1.6.
More than 90% of the residents voted for Riel to win, but this did not affect their support for Tina, hoping that Tina could represent the grassroots people to defeat the noble class.
Su Yu also made a small bet of 1 million on Tina's victory, as a support for Tina.
It was not that he did not want to bet more, but the official directly set a betting limit for him, which made him helpless.
On the viewing platform, the high-level members of the Unicorn Knights whispered about the duel below, looking like they had everything under control.
…
The battle began.
As expected by everyone in the audience, Tina was beaten back at the beginning.
Riel was experienced in combat and had been on the battlefield for a long time. Moreover, the unicorn was not only majestic but also could release light spells, which had a great bonus to the knight.
This gave her a huge advantage.
But as the fight went on, Tina miraculously managed to hold on.
She was like a small boat floating on the sea in the storm. The waves swallowed the boat one by one, but the boat always struggled not to sink and always surfaced again.
The battle was in a stalemate.
It was not until twenty minutes later that the whole battle finally came to an end.
After the fierce fight, Tina and Dima had been stabbed with more than a dozen blood holes.
Dima fell to the ground, dying.
Tina half-knelt on the ground, covering the wound on her abdomen with her hands with difficulty.
But the determination on her face remained unchanged.
Riel on the opposite side was also pale, but her injuries were much better than Tina's, and the unicorn kept releasing [Healing] to heal her injuries.
Riel pointed the tip of the lance at Tina and slowly walked towards her:
"Surrender! You can fight me to this extent with an ordinary horse, your strength can be regarded as the strongest among the newcomers in the same batch. But now, what capital do you have to fight me?"
Tina lowered her head, looking like she was about to collapse.
But at this moment, a cunning flashed in the corner of her eyes.
"You've been fooled!"
"What?"
"Look at the sword!"
Tina took out the [best sword in the village] that Su Yu gave her and pointed it at Riel.
Clang!
The rusty blade fell to the ground, and Riel fell into a [shock] state for 3 seconds.
