I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

Chapter 607 Tester is going to be king

The back garden of the city lord's castle.

Anno darted to a boulder and quickly traced his fingers across its surface.

In a mere second, Anno vanished again.

On the stone, a complex five-pointed pattern has appeared.

"It seems you've built a solid foundation!"

Philomena walked to the stone and observed the marked magic runes for a while. She nodded in satisfaction and said, "Although the pattern isn't perfect yet, it's almost complete. Go ahead and try it out!"

Anno looked at the seventh-tier lich who was already waiting beside him.

Without a word, the lich waved his staff and threw a [Undead Death Bomb] into the air.

The moment the [Undead Death Bullet] flew into the air, the magic runes on the stone lit up.

Then, the [Undead Death Bullet] made a turn in the air and flew towards the stone.

boom!

The two-meter-high rock was instantly blasted into pieces.

"It's a success!"

Liz and Sassi next to her gave each other a high five.

"Don't be too happy yet, the enemy isn't made of stone."

Philomena poured cold water on the two women, saying, "If it were a large magical beast, it wouldn't be so bad, but when you encounter a small target, it's not an easy task to carve magical runes onto a fast-moving object."

Moreover, this is a Tier 6 [Mark], which can only attract Tier 6 ranged attacks from you and your summoned creatures.

You're already at rank seven. If you don't find a way to upgrade your skills, it won't be of much use in your current combat.

Anno was also fully aware of the current problems.

"In actual combat, shadows can be used for experimentation. As for upgrading the skill level..."

Anno did a careful calculation and realized that he still needed to improve quite a few levels.

Besides the newly learned [Mark], there are also a number of key Tier 6 skills, such as the mana-restoring [Clarity], the extremely powerful magic [Star Magic Bullet], and the self-created melee skill [Horizontal Square Slash].

Upgrading a sixth-tier skill to the seventh tier is different from before.

This requires ten red souls!

Upgrading a Tier 6 summon to Tier 7 only requires two red souls.

Anno didn't have an upgraded soul before.

However, Anno should not lack seventh-tier souls in the future.

All the souls obtained from today's hunt will be converted into summons, but Anno still has 21 souls left when he leaves Hidden Dragon City.

These souls originally intended to continue advancing their sixth-tier summons to the seventh tier.

After all, you can't summon a soul without the corresponding sacrificial materials.

After the battle, although Anno was out of danger, he did not immediately use up all of his souls.

This is perfect for upgrading Summoner Spell levels.

Anno's first two skill choices were [Mark] and [Clarity].

With the seventh-tier [Mark], once Anno successfully applies the magic runes to the opponent, it's basically the opponent's death sentence.

"You, the [Substitute Straw Man], also need to speed up your progress."

Philomena reminded her from the side, "For you, the attacks are already more than enough. Now you just need to make sure you survive the battlefield."

Based on my understanding of you, with my guidance, you should be able to learn it in about a month.

Sigh, if it were Ruth, I reckon a week would be enough to teach her.

Ruth, how come the differences between people are so huge?

"Well!"

Seeing that Anno's face had darkened, Ruth quickly changed the subject, saying, "President, you've been in Xuelong City for three days now. The day after tomorrow is the date for the Presidential Council meeting; you should return to the Royal City to preside over it."

"Oh, so fast?"

Anno recovered from his shock and then sought out Ella, asking, "How's the investigation into the cultists going?"

"Master, according to the intelligence sent back by Andrei, a church called [Wisdom] is rapidly expanding its membership among the refugees in Sunset City."

According to the investigation, the Zhi people believe in a god called Okani!

Currently, Andrei is following the clues to find the person behind the church.

Andrei also sent back a message yesterday: the ruins of Sunset City are infested with some magical beasts that escaped from Hidden Dragon City, as well as a small number of monsters of unknown origin.

"The church, Okani, monsters?"

Anno thought for a moment and said, "Give the adventurers in Xuelong City the task of defeating monsters, and mark the difficulty of the task."

And it will be synchronized to all adventurers' guilds in the entire Eastern Territory. If there are no adventurers in the Eastern Territory who can accept the quest, then the quest will be synchronized to the Royal City Guild!

The magical beasts in Hidden Dragon City are at least mid-tier, with quite a few at the sixth tier.

The lowest mission level is Gold (Tier 4).

Currently, there are no Gold-level adventurers in Xuelong City.

However, there should be Gold-level adventurers in the city of Glad, where Viscount Renault is currently located.

After giving some further instructions, Anno rode up to Adelaide and returned to the royal city with Lu Yan and the other women who had visited the city of Selangor.

Upon returning to the royal city, Anno received two shocking pieces of news.

Charles XI was preparing to abdicate, and Teste became the next king of the Kingdom of Nigal, who was crowned six months later.

Charles XI was already in poor health.

This time, Simmons hurt her deeply, and she seemed to have aged ten years.

Although it was postponed for six months, Charles XI had already allowed Tester to begin handling state affairs, and he became an assistant.

Six months was merely enough time for Tester to become a qualified king.

This news was just released yesterday.

As for the other piece of news, it was that the eighth-tier archmage Priss, who was on duty in Warrengel, had returned without permission.

Pulis is a supporter of Simmons.

His position in the aristocracy was equivalent to that in the kingdom faction in Troy.

Priss returned with the aim of opposing Tester's ascension to the throne.

"Nobility is based on succession, and the throne should rightfully belong to His Highness Prince Simmons!"
