Revive Rome: Wait! Why not make the empress fall in love with me first?

Chapter 108: Accelerated Promotion


In the seas surrounding Fire Island.

Thira closed her eyes, standing in the air as she silently recalled her previous experiences.

Firstly, it involved the Law Skill, "Tornado."

Around her, the air started to swirl chaotically, rapidly forming six huge tornadoes, which like vortices, sucked the seawater straight into the sky.

These tornadoes spun quickly around her, enveloping everything in their path, whether it was rocks or schools of fish, all were swept into the sea and subsequently shattered under immense pressure.

According to the future Thira, the role of the Law Skill "Tornado" is to clear the area, wrapping all surrounding enemies high into the sky. Even if they survived the tearing forces of the tornado, falling from such a height would at least cost them half of their lives.

The second Law Skill was named "Star Fall."

Thira activated her ability again, and the schools of fish and debris that had been lifted up high into the sky immediately shot towards the ground under greatly amplified gravity, like accelerated cannonballs.

They plunged into the sea at high speed, causing blast-like surges of water to shoot up.

If on land, these two Law Skills would undoubtedly combine into a formidable combo attack: the first move, "Tornado," would lift everything on the ground up into the sky, followed by "Star Fall" crashing them all down like a meteor shower.

If combined with the third skill, "Earthquake," it would massively incapacitate surrounding enemies, making it almost impossible for them to avoid being hit by the falling "Star Fall"... According to the future Thira, this skill was a concept proposed by her future self, though she had not yet grasped the advancement.

Returning to the point, if her Law was taught by the future Thira, and the future Thira's Law by the future of the future Thira, then who ultimately should be credited as the original teacher? Shouldn't there be an initial source?

Of course, this kind of philosophical question is like the chicken and the egg dilemma—it doesn't merit excessive fretting. After becoming more familiar with the two Catastrophe Law skills, Thira flew back towards Fire Island.

Today, relying on this "Acceleration Plan" of communicating with her future self, everyone's levels had risen rapidly.

Peggy's level still led far ahead, already reaching LV.19 with these four skills: "Curse Death," "Withering," "Death Deprivation," and "Memory Salvage," and the first three had already been specialized.

The condition for moving from Lv.14 to Lv.15 is Law Embodiment, which is also a prerequisite for skill specialization. Once specialized, the potency of the skills became terrifyingly powerful. During the last fight with the Undead Wizard Ansalra, Peggy merely used "Curse Death" and instantly deprived him of his ability to move.

Next was the Squad Leader, Aske, level Lv.16, with these four skills: "Conceptual Weapon," "Ambush," "Plunder," and "Rebellion," and he has already specialized in "Plunder."

Following closely was Eleanor, level Lv.15, with these four skills: "Unyielding," "Will Armor," "Light Flow," and "Judgement," having just completed Law Embodiment yesterday and advanced.

These three were Transcendents who had four skills and completed Law Embodiment, their combat abilities clearly distancing them from others, making them the first echelon of The Azure Longsword Mercenary Corps.

Additionally, Thira suspected that Miel and Medea had also completed Law Embodiment, but these two always denied it.

They claimed they were still at Lv.12, with Miel's skills being "Mirror Image Duplication" and "State Covering," and Medea's skills being "Mind Line" and "Parasitic Seed."

Thira swore that if they really were only Lv.12, she would go propose to the Squad Leader right away.

Thus, the actual strength of these two remained at a unique "Schrodinger" level within the team, alternating ambiguously between advanced and low levels, only "suddenly advancing" when the right situation arose, making them temporarily hard to evaluate.

As for the remaining four, they were the second echelon striving to catch up.

For instance, Nora and Mia had both reached Lv.13 and were preparing to apprehend their 4th skill.

Nora's three skills were "Cell Division," "Selective Inheritance," and "High-frequency Mutation," all sounding very scientifically styled. As for the effects of the skills... they were very bizarre.

Recently, Nora, under the pretext of needing to test a new skill, had Aske capture a ghoul wandering nearby and brought it to Fire Island.

Then, Thira only saw Nora glance indifferently at the ghoul.

The ghoul, which had initially lunged at her, was immediately covered in a mass of fresh flowers.

Those flowers… it was as if they had grown directly from the ghoul's body, with branches, vines, and roots penetrating its entire body and instantly killing it on the spot.

Perhaps due to the decaying flesh serving as nourishment, these flowers bloomed with exceptional beauty and vibrancy.

To this day, Thira still hadn't figured out how those flowers had appeared… Could it be that seeds were created inside the ghoul's body?

Another Level 13 was Mia, whose three skills were "Black Hole," "Space Affinity," and "Twist." As the most recent skill she had mastered, Twist could tear rifts in space, and any object passing through these rifts would be severed—physically severed in space.

The newly skilled Mia was overjoyed and spent her days challenging the other girls to "test their skills," which almost resulted in Eleanor hanging her up to beat her… Eleanor first circumvented the space rifts with her "Light Flow" skill, then captured Mia's instant teleportation landing spot with Will Fog, followed by a "Judgement" strike that nearly burned Mia, who had just appeared, half to death.

From this, it was evident that the girls in the team were indeed divided into two tiers of strength.

Besides these two, the rest were her and Sigrdrifa, who were still at Level 12.

However, both had received the skills they needed to master in the future from themselves in the "Acceleration Plan."

Currently, Sigrdrifa had mastered "Slaughter" and "Silent Annihilation." "Slaughter" entailed launching an invisible force that would explode inside the enemy's body, a simple yet effective attack skill.

As for "Silent Annihilation," its effect was to disrupt the orderliness of the hit object. This orderliness included both the physical structure of the material and the orderliness of the Extraordinary Law.

Anything struck by this skill, even Peggy's Flesh Power, couldn't heal since the "Flesh" ability itself near the wound had been shattered by "Silent Annihilation," and only Nora could perform cell division and tissue reconstruction.

It seemed that Sigrdrifa's skills were somewhat similar to her own, both being pure output attack types. However, hers focused on single-target destruction, while her own skills were more about wide-area AOE.

But no matter what, as long as they continued to draw experience from their future selves, these second-tier girls could swiftly catch up with the first-tier's pace of leveling.

And once everyone advanced to Level 20 or above… that would mean The Azure Longsword Mercenary Corps would have a historic lineup of nine Demigods.

Keep in mind that even the Seljuk Empire, renowned for its Extraordinary Power, had less than twenty Demigods in total, and part of them were hidden in three major planes and couldn't return in time.

As for the foreign emperors, who could truly direct them through the exchange of interests, they could control at most six or seven Demigods. Nothing like their team where rare laws clustered together, and everyone fought unitedly without reservation during battles.

By then, her dream of restoring her nation would genuinely have a chance of realization.

Thinking of this, Thira couldn't help but feel her heart surge, feeling like a hero of Ancient Sirius who, after enduring countless hardships, finally reclaimed her nation…

"Thira!" Medea's voice suddenly arose in her mind, "Aske is calling everyone back to the Main Plane immediately."

"What's happening?" Thira snapped back to reality and immediately asked.

Wasn't it said that to avoid alarming the surrounding Undead Army, they should maintain covert operations with as few people as possible? Calling everyone out now meant…

…had they been discovered? And now they needed to concentrate their forces to break through forcefully?

With such vigilance, Thira teleported back to the Main Plane.

The next second, a barrage of attacks came hurtling towards everyone.
