Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1079 Bliss to the soul
At first, Zhou Xu didn't know that there were such things as cultivation and realm in this world, while Bolewen thought that their omniscient and omnipotent Majesty knew everything, which resulted in a subtle misunderstanding.

So after realizing this situation, Zhou Xu found an opportunity to exchange some information with Bo Levin appropriately.

At the same time, we also know that Bo Levin's strength in his peak period was at the Silver Two Star level in the Saint Realm!
During this period, heavy snow fell frequently in the Northeast, and it would last for several days at a time. It was basically impossible to send messages by carrier pigeons, so messengers had to deliver the letters as fast as possible on horseback.

Taking into account the influence of snow in the wild, the round trip will take at least half a month.

During this period, Zhou Xu still focused on cultivation, but with a testing mentality, he did not absorb natural energy anymore, but instead carried out internal circulation, mainly using his mental power to transform it into mantra power.

The price of doing this is that efficiency is greatly reduced compared to before.

This state lasted for a week, and on this day, Zhou Xu once again sensed the natural energy in the area.

He could clearly feel that the natural energy in the area began to recover, and the entire area became much more lively.

This discovery made Zhou Xu feel greatly relieved.

[That is to say, natural energy is a renewable resource...]

Following this line of thought, he could absorb natural energy every once in a while to increase his cultivation speed.

However, Zhou Xu obviously still had some concerns about this idea.

At this moment, he undoubtedly still clearly remembered the lifeless appearance of the natural energy in the area after he had sucked it dry.

This made him a little worried about whether doing so would have any impact.

Zhou Xu pondered over this issue for a long time, and finally decided not to absorb natural energy until he received a reply from Bo Levin.

Just as he was thinking this, a burst of excited noises came from the house next to him...

“Breakthrough! I broke through!!”

Amid the shouts, a wood elf wizard quickly ran out of the house.

After seeing Zhou Xu standing in the open space, he was stunned at first, and then hurried over with an excited look on his face to report to Zhou Xu.

"Your Majesty, Lieutenant John has successfully broken through!"

The report had just been completed when John, the person involved in the matter, ran out from the room not far away with an excited look on his face. It was obvious that he had also remembered what he wanted to report.

Wood elves are originally extraordinary beings, with talents far exceeding those of normal humans. However, due to their lazy and idle nature, their cultivation efficiency has not been improved.

But after joining the Great Zhou and becoming a member of the Royal Guards, this problem was basically solved.

In fact, John had reached a bottleneck in his practice long before winter came, but he had never been able to break through.

As a result, just one week after he successfully advanced to the Saint Realm, John also broke through. This made Zhou Xu wonder if it was his talent as an 'evolutionary leader' that was at work.

Although from the perspective of life level, he is still an extraordinary life, but extraordinary life itself is also divided into levels. Now that he has reached the holy realm, his level must have become higher.

In this process, his talent as an 'evolved leader' will naturally transform it into a benefit and bless his people.

Just as Zhou Xu was thinking this, John had already walked a few steps, came to him, and knelt down respectfully. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your blessing!"

Unlike ordinary humans, as a transcendental life form with strong magical skills, John was undoubtedly aware of the changes taking place in himself.

Under this premise, he was also influenced to a certain extent by the ideology of the state religion, and subconsciously believed that it was their Majesty who noticed his condition and bestowed blessings upon him to help him break through.

These past few days, he had a feeling that a blessing had come to him. The original bottlenecks seemed to have disappeared, and the entire breakthrough was a natural result.

This made John's admiration for Zhou Xu even stronger.

This wave of prestige was an unexpected surprise for Zhou Xu. At the same time, it was undoubtedly a good thing that John could become an extraordinary wizard.

Locke is old after all, and this wave has already made him suffer enough. It is difficult for Zhou Xu to guarantee that he will be able to withstand such a torment in a few years.

Therefore, the best way is to let John grow up quickly and directly replace Locke's position, so that Locke can live out his retirement in peace in the Wood Elf Village.

It’s not that Zhou Xu no longer needs this elderly extraordinary wizard.

To be honest, he never has too many extraordinary wizards.

But Locke's identity is special after all. While he is an extraordinary wizard, he is also the patriarch of the wood elves. If for various reasons, the elderly patriarch of the wood elves dies of exhaustion or sudden death on the battlefield, it is very likely to cause him some trouble and even cause dissatisfaction among the wood elves.

He still wanted to avoid this situation as much as possible.

"John, I have always had high hopes for you. After the breakthrough, you must not slack off. In other words, you must work harder and strive to be promoted to Bronze 2 Star in a short period of time."

As Zhou Xu spoke, he helped John up, and did not forget to encourage him a few more words.

In the military system of the Great Zhou, the main responsibility of the Wood Elf Mage Corps is to use the mantra combo of "Wild Growth" and "Energy Drainage" to control a large area of ​​the field and take away an enemy troop in one wave.

In other words, in general, their main target is enemy troops, not enemy strongmen.

Assuming that John has reached Bronze 2 stars, in terms of hard power, he may still be a lot worse than Locke, but John is young, energetic, has better physical fitness, and can withstand the hard work.

At the same time, his talent of 'Breath of Nature' can also allow the recovery speed of the mantra power in his body to far exceed that of ordinary mantra mages.

After Locke makes a move once, he will probably be done for. Running back and forth could cost him half his life. You're even afraid that he might die on the way if he's not paying attention.

But John had none of those problems!

Not only does he not have these problems, but based on his talent, in a short war, John would most likely be able to take action twice or even three times!
With this in mind, John is more than worth more than the elderly Locke.

From the conversation, John could clearly feel that their Majesty valued him, and for a moment, he was very excited.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. I will practice diligently and strive to improve my strength to Bronze 2 Star in the shortest possible time!"

"Very good, I'm rooting for you, keep going!"
