Snapped!Snapped!
Roy tossed the unconscious, lifeless Algana and Bajie to the ground and clapped his hands.
There are also differences between LV.6!
Initiating a simulated adventure, he is equivalent to an S-rank in all abilities. Against two people with all I-rank abilities, there is a difference of nine minor ranks. Although it is not as outrageous as a major rank difference, it is not difficult to completely overwhelm them.
Roy looked up, his gaze sharp as lightning, sweeping over the members of the Kalichun tribe. The haughty Amazon girls all lowered their heads, not daring to look him in the eye.
Their two strongest LV.6s were both crushed by Roy, and even combined they weren't enough to defeat him.
Roy came to Tiona's side.
Tiona is in slightly better shape than Tione, wielding the Great Twin Blades, Urga, which Baje is quite wary of. Tione, on the other hand, has magic but cannot unleash it; her "Parallel Chanting" is not at the level of Ryu, and she would be beaten up if she were to lose focus even for a moment.
But she wasn't much better off. Tiona was covered in wounds, her face was pale, and her eyes showed deep fatigue. Her two skills were: Berserk Frenzy: Increases attack power based on the severity of injury! Great Battle: When near death, all her stats receive a super high boost!
Although it lacked the idealistic effect of Tione, after being beaten for over ten hours, its stats improved to almost the peak of LV.5, approaching LV.6.
Thanks to this, we've managed to hold on until now.
"Commander."
Tiona called softly, her pretty face still bearing a sunny and cheerful smile, as if nothing in the world could defeat her.
This strong perseverance has attracted the attention of countless people.
In an attempt to provoke Tiony, Roy recounted the past of the two Amazonian sisters, which was overheard by many.
Tione unleashed her full power, crippling Algana's arm at level 6. While this was a spectacular and awe-inspiring feat, Tione was no less formidable.
It just didn't cause as much of a stir as Tione's.
Who could have imagined that behind that innocent and naive Amazonian girl's bright and sunny smile lay such a dark past, as she had repeatedly challenged life-or-death rituals in order to help her sister Tione escape from the Familia?
Tragedy often brings tears to people's eyes.
The gods wept bitterly, filled with regret. Had they known this would happen, they would have risked everything to recruit the Amazon sisters into their kin. Now it was too late; Dione and Diona already had someone else in their hearts.
Having already transformed into Roy's form, the Astrea Familia would never let go.
"Drink it!"
Roy flipped his hand and took out another bottle of Heavenly Elixir, tossing it to Tiona. He was generous to his own people, having already used it on Tione earlier, and everyone had seen it; there was no need to hide it anymore.
Tiona didn't know the value of the elixir either, but she unconditionally trusted Roy, opened the bottle, and drank it all up in one gulp.
call out!
A dazzling aura erupted from Tiona, and bathed in warm light, her physical strength, mental energy, and injuries rapidly recovered, bringing her to near full health.
Tiona jumped up and regained her mobility.
The gods and adventurers stared wide-eyed. The effects of this elixir were simply too outrageous. They were willing to guarantee that even the most top-grade panacea of the Deankat Spring Clan could not possibly have such miraculous effects.
Faced with such a miraculous elixir, no one dared to show any greed, at least not on the surface. This was the power of the Astrea Familia.
Even if Roy openly placed his precious treasures at his doorstep, how many people would dare to take them?
If you take it today, you'll die tomorrow!
The righteous Astraea Familia's punishment of theft is perfectly justified, and no one can find fault with it.
Roy said, "Let's go back!"
Tiona nodded happily, "Okay, Captain!"
Roy gently slipped his hands under Tione's legs and neck, lifted her soft, boneless body, and carried her away from the port back to Orario.
Astraea, Ryu, and Tiona followed closely behind Roy, their steps firm and powerful.
The overwhelming aura that came towards them seemed to transform into an invisible hand, pushing aside the numerous gods, adventurers, and civilians. Everyone was shocked and retreated, making way for Roy and his group to pass.
After this battle, Roy completely established his dominant position, a true madman!
The strongest LV6 adventurer!
Whether he can defeat a LV.7 powerhouse is another matter, but at the LV.6 level, he is invincible, instantly killing opponents of the same level, which is the best demonstration of his personal strength!
Watching Roy and his group walk away, everyone present felt a surge of emotion, especially the gods, who were incredibly enthusiastic. A strong sense of epic grandeur washed over them, as if they were witnessing history.
The students in the school district were so excited that they trembled and subconsciously had the idea of following suit.
Among the students, the elven girl with long, thick golden hair had a strange light gleaming in her beautiful eyes.
Lefia's little mind raced through the events of the past few days. Roy had exposed the merchants' fraudulent scheme for them, and she couldn't help but think of the saying, "No act of kindness is too small to be done," which couldn't be more fitting.
As one of the top powers in Orario, the Astrea Familia did not adopt an arrogant attitude, but instead was happy to help the weak.
Roy killed the floor master Goliath and a large number of monsters in the dungeon and saved the reckless group. Lefia will always remember this kindness.
Following Roy, she saw the graves of former members of the Astrea Familia on the eighteenth floor, which gave her a more comprehensive understanding of the Familia and showed that it was not just about a glamorous appearance. She was deeply shocked.
At this moment, Roy's brutal attacks on Alganna and Bajie did not frighten her.
It was Roy's determination to protect his companions that deeply moved Lefia. Her face turned serious, and she exclaimed, "Teacher Leon, I think I've found my goal!"
Roy probably never imagined that this accident would become the final step in capturing the school district's Pokémon.
Not only Lefia, but countless students were drawn to the strength and justice of the Astrea Familia after this battle, and applications for faction internships poured into Principal Baldr's office like snowflakes.
Upon hearing Lefia's declaration, the model knight's mature and handsome lips curled up slightly, pleased that his student had found her purpose in life.
"Then things got interesting."
On the other side, Roy and the others had just returned to Orario when they bumped into Lily, Anya, Daphne, Cassandra, and Haruhime who were rushing towards them.
"Lady Astraea, Commander!"
"Tione! Tiona!"
"Captain, who hurt Tione and Tiona? I'm going to kill them!"
When the five girls saw the miserable state of Tiony and Tiona, they were first shocked, then enraged, their eyes turned red, and their little faces were filled with murderous intent.
"Don't worry, they'll be fine," Roy said. The Heavenly Elixir is enough to heal all injuries, even if someone is on the verge of death, it can pull them back. The two of them just look like they are seriously injured.
Upon hearing this, the girls of the clan who had unconditional faith in Roy looked relieved and relaxed.
"Lord Roy, it was Lily who sent everyone out to help. Please punish Lily," Lily said.
The girls of the clan, realizing what was happening, rushed over upon hearing the commotion at the port. Lily and Anya were alright; nothing would happen in the pleasure quarters. Daphne and her two companions, however, had left the Star Garden, and their main camp was now deserted.
Billions in assets, at anyone's beck and call!
"Commander, this isn't just Lily's fault; we all voluntarily left our posts!"
"Please punish me!"
"I am willing to accept any punishment!"
Daphne, Cassandra, and Haruhime were stunned for a moment, their expressions anxious, and they all spoke up.
In other families, this would be considered a serious dereliction of duty, and even if the person were executed, no one would dare to say anything!
Seeing the girls' anxiety, Roy laughed and said, "What's the rush? Did I say I would punish them?"
Lily, Daphne, and the others relaxed their expressions, but guilt and self-blame still lingered on their faces.
Roy's gaze swept over the group of Astrea Familia girls. "Your choice is correct. This is my judgment as the captain. No matter when or where, the Astrea Familia has no one who abandons their comrades."
If they were in other clans, Daphne and her two companions would have been right to uphold their duties and stay at their posts.
But Roy will be very disappointed.
Today they might abandon their companions for money, and tomorrow they might betray them for something else. Dungeon exploration is a life-or-death battle, and Roy dares not enter the dangerous dungeons with those kinds of people.
Roy only needs someone who doesn't abandon their companions in a near-desperate situation.
"Commander!"
The girls of the Astrea Familia understood Roy's meaning and were overjoyed, tears streaming down their faces. It was wonderful to be able to join the Astrea Familia.
A tear welled up in Tiony's eye as she lay in Roy's arms, sliding down her smooth cheek.
Tiona's smile grew even brighter.
Astraea and Ryu exchanged a smile. Billions of dollars in assets couldn't compare to their fellow members of the clan. Only Roy dared to say such a thing; it was their kind of romance.
The group cheered and happily returned to the Court of Stars after traversing the long streets.
At the entrance to the Star Garden, they saw the figures of two beautiful women, Riveria and Ais, one tall and one short. Having just returned from an expedition, they noticed that the mansion was empty and took the initiative to serve as guards.
Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Ugh!"
Rivera sighed, feeling like she really had become the "madam" Loki had described, constantly cleaning up Roy's messes. "You need to be more careful—"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Faced with the madam's lecture, Roy didn't dare to refute a word and nodded repeatedly. He was indebted to her because he had accepted her food and money, and besides, Rivera had helped them protect billions of assets.
Ais looked at Roy with a complicated expression. How did he get to LV.6 already?!
After being reprimanded by Riveria, Roy returned to the mansion with a dark face, letting out a series of cold laughs.
"Captain, let me comfort your wounded heart after being disciplined." Tiona opened her arms.
"Go away, stop causing trouble, I'll deal with you later!" Roy waved his hand dismissively and went straight to the sofa, where Tione was lying down.
Roy noticed the Amazonian girl's long eyelashes fluttering, reached out and pinched Tiony's small nose. "How long are you going to keep up the act? Get up!"
"oops!"
Tiony's face flushed red. She opened her eyes, let out a scream, and pouted in dissatisfaction. "Captain, I'm injured and want to lie down a little longer."
The effects of the Heavenly Elixir were remarkable, and coupled with her LV.5 non-human physique, after Tione's power surged, she only lost consciousness for a short time before quickly waking up. In order to enjoy Roy's embrace, she has been pretending until now.
Listening to Roy and Lily's conversation, Tiony was moved to tears, but as the culprit, she dared not get up and could only pretend to be innocent.
"Captain~"
At that moment, Tiony suddenly remembered something, her pretty face turned red, and she touched her rosy lips. The shyness in her heart seemed to turn into a blazing fire, burning her mind. In front of everyone, she kissed Roy.
Shame to death!
Despite her usual unrestrained and wild nature, and her countless attempts to sneak into Roy's room at night, when it really comes down to it, she's still like a naive young girl.
Moreover, the object of her affections was her beloved, and a warm current of happiness flowed through Tiony's heart.
Roy, on the other hand, remained calm. He had already confessed his love late at night, so what was a little kiss in public? He was shameless as a city wall.
"Tione, now that you're awake, I need to settle the score with you," Roy said calmly.
Thione's smile froze.
Roy's tone turned stern. "Having a conflict or battle with another clan without permission from the leader or the main god is no small offense. At best, you'll be expelled from the clan; at worst, you'll have to pay with your life. Choose one."
Tiony panicked and hurriedly explained, "Captain, they were the ones causing trouble. I didn't mean to, and I didn't want to cause you any trouble—"
Tiony's voice grew softer and softer, tears welling in her eyes, her voice filled with a sense of grievance.
Lily, Daphne, Cassandra, Haruhime, and Anya, who were standing nearby, also changed their expressions. They all felt that the punishment was too severe. Roy had been able to get away with abandoning his post so easily.
Tiona trembled. So this is what they mean by punishing her.
Astraea and Liu remained calm and composed, knowing that Roy only wanted to give Tione a warning.
Roy asked, "Where do you think you went wrong?"
"Fighting with Kali and Argana—"
"Um?"
"Unauthorized action————"
"Um?"
'
"Waaaaah, Captain, what is that?"
Roy, with his tense expression, was as terrifying as a god of death, scaring Tiony to the point of tears.
With just his imposing aura, he nearly scared a LV.5 adventurer to death. If the gods and adventurers saw this, they would probably be in awe of Roy.
Seeing that the intimidation had a significant effect, Roy's eyes softened. This Amazon girl seemed carefree, but she harbored an inferiority complex that was hard for ordinary people to detect. She subconsciously compared herself to the students in the school district and did not want her private affairs to cause trouble for her family.
On the contrary, Tiona, as the younger sister, is actually stronger than Tione.
Roy patted Tione's little head. "You should have told us immediately. Don't think you're causing us trouble. Doesn't this clan have enough trouble already? Let's all work together, no matter what kind of monsters or demons they are, we're here to deal with them!"
Roy's domineering voice seemed to transform into a tangible spear, piercing through Tione's heart and erasing all traces of her last inferiority complex.
"Commander!"
Tears welled in Tiona's eyes as she opened her arms and involuntarily threw herself into Roy's embrace. "Phew!" Tiona secretly breathed a sigh of relief; she must have escaped a disaster.
Tiony caught sight of Tiona out of the corner of her eye, and her angry voice echoed throughout the mansion, "Tiona, you idiot, how dare you keep this from me!"
Tiona asked guiltily, "Which one are you referring to?"
Tione, "The matter of the warring states back then!"
Tiona immediately became defiant, puffing out her steely figure, "You didn't ask!"
Tiony laughed in exasperation.
Suddenly, Tiony noticed the oddness in Tiona's tone and her strange look. She pressed on, "Then what else are you hiding from me?"
"No more, really no more this time." Tiona shook her little head like a rattle drum, but her eyes kept drifting and eventually landed on Roy.
"Tiona—!"
How could Tione not notice Tiona's little glance? Her eyes widened, and she pounced on her. The two sisters wrestled and played around.
"I'll place my bet on how long they can keep fighting!"
"I bet three hundred fariits for an hour!"
"Lily bets five hundred fares for half an hour!"
The girls of the clan, like gods, solemnly placed their bets, taking out their own savings.
Daphne smiled and asked, "Captain, what about you?"
"I bet ten thousand falies they'll stop in the next second." Roy smirked, then shouted, "Tione, Tiona, stop!"
Upon hearing his voice, Tiony and Tiona reacted as if on cue, immediately separating and straightening their backs.
"I won!" Roy waved his hand and collected all the girls' savings from the gambling table.
"The regimental commander is cheating!"
The girls from the dependent families were on the verge of tears.
The Garden of Stars was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
It was evening.
Astrea updated the stats of Tione and Tiona. After seven years, and following more than ten hours of intensive training by their teachers Algana and Bazé, the two girls' stats skyrocketed.
Although it looks incredibly tragic, this level of training was actually just a normal part of their daily lives when they were young.
Including the gains from exploring dungeons during this period, my Strength attribute is now D-rank, my Endurance is B-rank, and my Agility and Dexterity are E-rank.
Tione's magic is F-rank, while Tiona has no magic and is level |.
More importantly, both of them accomplished great things!
Ordinary LV.5 adventurers, or even LV.6 strong warriors, might not be able to withstand it, yet they persisted for more than ten hours. Although Algana and Baje might have been holding back, their tenacity was undeniable.
Pushed to his limit, Tione unleashed his full power, crippling the arm of a LV.6 powerhouse with a single punch!
Tiona stood firm and remained clear-headed. The value of her achievements far surpassed that of Tione. An old lady in a small tavern once said that even if you lose face and are ridiculed, it doesn't matter. Ugly or handsome adventurers will die faster. The one who survives is the winner. The one who can still stand in the end is the true adventurer!
Tiona was undoubtedly the one who stood until the end.
The reason lies in her more comprehensive skills; when near death, all her abilities are enhanced. Tione is single-mindedly focused on maximizing her destructive power.
Astraea smiled and said, "Yes, the ability values are also low enough to meet the requirements; both of them can level up."
"Yay!"
Tiony and Tiona cheered in anger.
Qingfuni, Cassandra, Anya, Lily, and Haruhime looked on with envy. In the Astrea Familia, they had no shortage of ability points, but the key was great achievements.
You could do what Roy did: find a stronger opponent or monster than yourself and challenge them, pushing yourself to your limits. But that's like walking a tightrope; you can play around with it for a while, but you'll inevitably run into trouble sooner or later.
Only a monster like Roy would dare to do something like this.
Either accumulate gradually.
A great achievement is something that ordinary people can hardly do. Following the team to defeat the floor boss dozens of times can also be considered a great achievement. Anyway, it's something that Gai Song wouldn't be able to accomplish.
