"What?"
Jia Zhengyi was taken aback, then reached out and took it.
But what he saw was a piece of light armor that shone with golden light, which was exactly the gold-quality armor that Su Lin had searched for before!
Its appearance is dazzling, as brilliant as gold, and its light is so dazzling that it cannot be looked at directly. It exudes an air of nobility and arrogance from top to bottom.
That one glance was enough to make Jia Zhengyi jump up, his eyes wide with disbelief: "Holy crap! So handsome! So cool!"
"Boss, you understand me so well!"
Jia Zhengyi was overjoyed and put on the armor without saying a word, striking a few cool poses with a touch of self-admiration.
To be honest, this kid isn't ugly. After putting on this armor, he really does have the heroic air of a young general, which is quite intimidating.
"Clothes really do make the man; he looks much more handsome now."
Su Lin nodded, and his praise made Jia Zhengyi laugh even harder. Lyanna, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up and commented, "You can't laugh. You look like a clown when you laugh."
"Hey! Hey, hey, how can you talk like that? Is this workplace discrimination?!"
Jia Zhengyi's face fell, but under Lyanna's calm gaze, he quickly deflated and turned his head away from her.
This woman is too powerful. Just one glance from her is like the domineering pressure of a female CEO. I have absolutely no way to deal with her.
“Leanna, I don’t have anything suitable for you right now.”
Su Lin pondered for a moment, then looked at Lyanna. The elf was much better now, unlike before when she wouldn't say a word for days.
She still occasionally chimes in with a few words, which means she's already integrated into the group.
Su Lin pondered that since he had given Xiao Linlin and Jia Zhengyi some things, he shouldn't neglect Lyanna, especially since she had handled most of the pressure in this match; she was a major contributor to the victory.
But given Lyanna's strength, she wouldn't be interested in what Sulin could offer; and what she would be interested in, Sulin himself would want to use.
“I don’t need the Holy Spirit.”
Lyanna shook her head slightly and said calmly, "Being able to follow you is the greatest blessing; no treasure can compare to it."
Su Lin smiled, while Jia Zhengyi next to her couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Look at the art of speaking these people; Jia Zhengyi is ashamed of himself.
After all, they genuinely understand this and truly consider it an honor, not just trying to curry favor.
After finishing their casual conversation, Su Lin glanced at the information notification that had popped up in front of him.
[Congratulations player! You have completed stage 8!]
[Since you completed the task in less than half the required time, it is considered a "perfect completion," and an additional reward is being calculated!]
[Congratulations, player! You have received an additional reward for this stage of the quest: the difficulty of Stage 9 has been reduced by 20%, and the final stage reward has been increased by 20%.]
[Now, we will announce the details of Phase 9.]
[Current Phase Task 9]: Please reverse the current war situation of your faction; turn from disadvantage to advantage, and from advantage to disadvantage; the evaluation criteria will be based on the changes in the geographical location of the main war defense line, and will also take into account the occupation of the main cities of both sides of the participating faction, with a time limit of three months; if the current task expires, the progress of the phase task will be reset and all rewards will be cleared.
The new phase of the task has surprisingly extended the time limit.
What's even more interesting is that the mechanism seems to implicitly allow players to act as "traitors within the faction," creating a situation where players stir up trouble and watch the drama unfold.
Fortunately, Xiao Linlin's early plans were sound, preventing the team from being led by the nose by the system.
"It looks like this will be a long and busy day. To turn the tide of the entire battlefield, I'll probably have to travel across most of the battlefield."
Su Lin took a deep breath and gestured for Jia Zhengyi to call Xiao Linlin back so they could discuss in detail what to do next.
Now that the phased task has reached phase 9, it's just a matter of pressing forward with full force.
Only after completing these tasks can Su Lin truly relax and enjoy searching the entire map. Otherwise, with the time limit of each phase task constantly urging him on, Su Lin really has no mind to properly study martial arts and search for supplies.
After recalling Xiao Linlin, the team members carefully discussed the details of the mission plan. Through Jia Zhengyi's intervention, they communicated with the Duke and, under the banner of patriotism, took the initiative to take over most of the pressure of the Sky Fortress war.
The Duke naturally agreed wholeheartedly. The reason he supported the team so strongly, even at the cost of using the dynasty's political resources, was precisely for this very moment.
As expected of elves, they get things done as soon as they get them, much more efficient than the nobles and princes in the capital.
If you win, you get a share of the credit; if you lose, you can blame it on the elves. This is a fantastic opportunity!
Moreover, if so many elves can be defeated, then there is no point in continuing this battle.
With the Duke's strong support, Sulin left Xiao Linlin, Elrei, and a few other purebloods inside the fortress, while he personally led a team of tens of thousands of elves, including Lyanna, away from Sky Fortress.
Over the next three days, the elven army, centered on Skyhold, swept through the surrounding orc remnants.
On the third night, Skyhold received distress signals from two human cities behind it. It was said that orc forces that had previously breached Skyhold had infiltrated human territory in an attempt to expand their gains.
Just then, the elves recaptured the fortress with incredible speed, catching the orc troops who had penetrated deep behind enemy lines completely off guard. They had no choice but to grit their teeth and attack the city, attempting to create a pincer movement around the fortress.
This message was delivered remotely by Jia Zhengyi via a technology headset. Without needing to return, Su Lin immediately turned his horse around, divided his forces, and led three thousand elves to the rear.
