133: The power of a clone!

[Ding, you have entered the Fairy Forest.]

A flash of light occurred as Lin Yue returned to the forest's safe point. Looking at the Phantom Fairies that had already respawned and spread throughout the forest, Lin Yue was in no hurry to grind mobs. Instead, he first looked at the Clone's skills.

Clone Technique (Special Active): 1-Star

Effect: You can split into two Clones. The Clones inherit 50% of the main body's health and 50% of its attack and magic power to fight alongside you. At the same time, Clones will take 200% damage. (Note: The previous description was incorrect, my apologies.)

Cost: 500 MP.

Cooldown: 1 hour.

Proficiency: (0/10,000)

The Clone's utility was very powerful. Now that he had obtained it, he naturally had to test it out.

In the next second, Lin Yue directly summoned the Clones. Two Clones that looked exactly like Lin Yue appeared on either side of him.

Unlike the main body, the Lin Yue summoned by the Clone Technique was shrouded in a layer of shadow, giving them an overall dark tone.

This setting was to distinguish the main body from the Clones. Otherwise, seeing an identical version of himself would undoubtedly feel strange.

However, this was from Lin Yue's perspective. In the eyes of outsiders, all three people before them were Lin Yue, making it difficult to spot any clues.

Opening the Clone's attribute panel.

Nickname: White Emperor (Clone)

Rank: 30 (First Job Advancement)

Class: Chaos Mage (Lightning)

Class Trait: Chaos Mage Specialization (Lightning)

HP: 1.21 million / 1.21 million.

MP: 8,900 / 8,900

physical attack: 50. magic power: 33,210.

Armor: 800. magic resist: [N/A]. elemental resistance: 50.

Casting Speed: 4.5. movement speed: 73.

spell penetration: 20%. physical penetration: 0%.

Spell Accuracy: 55%. Spell Lifesteal: 30%.

Special Attributes: Critical Hit: 0, Luck: 0, Spell True Damage: 0%, Elemental Attack: 0.

Talent: None.

These attributes looked quite average. They only inherited half of the attack and defense, and other special attributes like Critical Hit, Luck, and True Damage were not inherited.

Most importantly, the Talent was not inherited.

Thus, the plan to use Clones to stack health had clearly fallen through.

If it were like the Shadow Clone Technique in anime, where the health stacked by the Clones could be inherited, it would be much more incredible.

However, Lin Yue could understand having this level of strength at one star.

One Clone was half, so wouldn't two Clones combine into one complete Lin Yue?

All things considered, the efficiency of clearing maps could still be nearly doubled.

The Clone's skills were actually similar to the main body's. Except for special skills like Vibrant Life and Rebirth from Ashes which couldn't be copied, they had all the standard class skills.

This was also to avoid certain special situations, such as a Clone summoning another Clone, which would be a bug-like existence. After all, in the Late Stage, Clones would be able to copy 100% of the protagonist's attributes like attack and defense.

500 MP to summon once an hour—what more could one ask for?

It was already very powerful.

The two Clones possessed combat awareness. With just a thought from Lin Yue, they could immediately understand his intentions, making them very convenient to control.

Boom!

After setting the intent to clear the map in his mind, the two Clones began casting Spells at the Phantom Fairies in front of them without another word.

The Clones currently had no equipment bonuses, so their maximum Casting Speed was 4.5, which wasn't slow.

With 30% Spell Lifesteal, as long as there weren't too many Phantom Fairies gathered together, the Clones wouldn't have much trouble clearing the map.

[Ding, you have killed a Rank 50 Phantom Fairy above your level. Experience +2,000.]

[Ding, you have killed a Rank 50 Phantom Fairy above your level. Experience +2,000.]

[Ding, you have killed a Rank 50 Phantom Fairy above your level. Experience +2,000.]

...After reaching Rank 30, the experience reward for killing higher-level mobs had dropped to 2,000 points. Originally, the leveling speed would have definitely slowed down, but with the Clones, the leveling speed actually increased instead of decreasing.

After observing for about a minute and seeing that the Phantom Fairies could do nothing to his Clones, Lin Yue felt relieved and joined the Clones in clearing the map.

Boom, boom, boom!

Countless Chain Fireballs flew through the air, and Explosive Flames continued to spread. One by one, the Phantom Fairies fell before they even had time to wail.

This feeling was simply too great. Moreover, as the main body's health and magic power stacked and increased, the Clones increased simultaneously as well.

This way, there was no worry that the Clones wouldn't be able to keep up with the main body's progress.

An hour later, Lin Yue did a rough calculation. Together with his Clones, he had killed a total of seven thousand Phantom Fairies.

Efficiency had nearly doubled. Unfortunately, the Clones couldn't stack health and magic power; otherwise, it would have been even better.

Maintaining this efficiency, five hours passed from nine in the morning to two in the afternoon.

35,000 Phantom Fairies were killed, and the red name value was reduced by 1,400 points, as there were still 105,000 Clones of the Phantom Fairies remaining.

At the same time, Lin Yue also gained 70 million experience points, reaching Rank 35.

In terms of experience points and red name value alone, the map-clearing efficiency had indeed doubled.

health stacking still had to be calculated based on five hours. Lin Yue only stacked 288,000 health and 11,520 spell power.

After checking his attributes, he resumed his tedious map-clearing life. If he accidentally dropped another Clone Technique book, he could give it to his family even if he didn't need it himself.

Boom, boom, boom!

Fire fell everywhere, and the heat waves were overwhelming. If any player passed by, they would see the Giant Wood Forest covered in flames and corpses.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

During these three days, the landscape of the Land of the Final End had once again undergone significant changes.

First of all, the rankings of the top ten guilds had changed. The Overlord Guild, which was once in first place, had dropped to tenth.

The second-place Xing Chen Guild was now the most powerful and held the first-place spot.

Secondly, the Feng Yun Guild, which was originally at the bottom, had now moved to the middle, ranking fifth.

In just three short days, Feng Yun, Young Master Leng had also been investing in and expanding his strength, which was now far beyond what it used to be.

As for the White Jade Capital, its original two thousand members had grown to five thousand after three days of development.

Although it couldn't compare to the top ten guilds with their tens of thousands of members, the members of the White Jade Capital were, after all, carefully selected expert players who had joined voluntarily.

Its strength could not be calculated by numbers alone. It was hailed by many players as the strongest Gang below the top ten guilds, with no exceptions.

Of course, this was based on the strength of the members. If White Emperor were included, the White Jade Capital would be the undisputed number one Gang in the Dragon Country Region of the Land of the Final End.

There was no second; why say that?

Because as long as a player opened the Rank leaderboard, they would see the name firmly occupying the first place: White Emperor—Rank 50 (Class hidden).

While the second place had only just reached Rank 30...
