At this moment, in a distant mansion in Leaving Fire City, in an office.

Yan Changfeng, sitting in a recliner, inexplicably sneezed.

"Who's talking about me?!"

...

Meanwhile.

Jiang Chen and his companions walked out of the palace and arrived at the square outside.

Just like in the main city, the square in the Royal City also had a teleportation array leading to the city gates.

The Claw Cat Demons were located not far outside the East Gate of Skyward City, while the Chaos Forest was in the northwest direction of Skyward City.

"Let's head to the East Gate first, help Qing Ying finish her task, and then go to the West Gate to head to the Chaos Forest."

Jiang Chen quickly planned the route and then led the group through the teleportation array to the East Gate.

After stepping out of the massive city gate, what appeared in their sight was an endless sea of white fluff.

Ahead, the area was filled with dandelions.

As they got closer, they could see that these dandelions were half the height of a person, with fluff balls the size of heads on top of their stems.

A gust of wind blew, scattering the fluff balls, turning them into umbrella-shaped dandelion seeds that danced in the air.

"Such huge dandelions!"

Qing Ying couldn't help but exclaim.

"They're quite beautiful!"

Tao Xiaoyao admired.

"They can fly too!"

Yuna's eyes widened with curiosity and delight.

It was her first time seeing dandelions.

"Dandelions are light and dance with the wind."

Jiang Chen replied, his gaze fixed on the distant dandelion field, where black figures were leaping.

[Claw Cat Demon: LV15]

A simple mob that Qing Ying could easily handle alone, but with 30 of them, it would still take some time.

After all, a knight is a tank class.

"Brother Mortal World, I see the Claw Cat Demons. I'll go pull them!"

Qing Ying shouted and quickly dashed into the dandelion field, scattering a large number of dandelion seeds.

In no time, a group of black Claw Cat Demons were trailing behind her.

As she ran, white dandelion seeds flew all around.

"You..."

Jiang Chen remembered something and was about to speak, but then he just smiled helplessly.

Soon, over a dozen Claw Cat Demons were pulled over by Qing Ying.

Jiang Chen casually threw a healing spell at the nearest one.

-5460! (Double Cast)

A white light fell, and a Claw Cat Demon dropped dead.

It was fragile, with only 4000 health points.

"Did you see that?"

Jiang Chen said to Qing Ying.

"Huh?"

Qing Ying was momentarily stunned, then realized, "Brother Mortal World, my task progress didn't move!"

"Yes, this is a personal class change task. Only your kills count. Let Xiaoyao help you; I'm not suitable for this."

If Jiang Chen made a move, the mobs would likely die instantly. "You two can handle it in less than 10 minutes."

"Sister Qing Ying, I'll help you!"

Tao Xiaoyao immediately stepped forward, summoning a Big Yellow Dog and a Gray Bear, sending them to attack the mobs.

Thus, Qing Ying tanked the mobs while the two summoned beasts helped her with the damage.

If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

When a mob was nearly dead, it was left for Qing Ying to finish off.

Every time Qing Ying or the summoned beasts attacked the mobs, a small burst of lightning would appear upon contact.

This was the extra 10% lightning damage from the Ancient Thunder Spirit's legacy.

Meanwhile, Yuna was still curiously watching the flying dandelions, her eyes sparkling.

Jiang Chen silently watched the two girls farming mobs.

When Qing Ying's health dropped to half and she was about to use a health potion, Jiang Chen cast a Holy Light Judgment.

A sharp, arrow-like white light quickly shot at Qing Ying.

+710!

"Brother Mortal World healed me!"

Qing Ying looked pleasantly surprised.

It was her first time receiving a heal from Jiang Chen.

"I want one too..."

Tao Xiaoyao muttered unconsciously, then realized her slip and quickly covered her mouth, her face turning red.

"What did you say?"

Jiang Chen didn't hear clearly and looked at Tao Xiaoyao curiously.

"Nothing."

Tao Xiaoyao quickly shook her head, her face even redder.

Jiang Chen didn't ask further and turned his attention back to the mobs.

Suddenly, a few glowing dandelion seeds, unaffected by the wind, fell straight onto a half-health Claw Cat Demon.

-35

-35

-35

...

Numbers floated up from the mob's body.

A total of six dandelion seeds caused 210 damage.

Both Qing Ying and Tao Xiaoyao were momentarily stunned.

Even Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, "What's this?"

He then turned to look beside him.

Yuna was holding an ancient-looking book made of energy, floating in her hands.

The book was open, emitting a pale blue light, and glowing umbrella-shaped dandelions were quickly floating out of it, falling onto the mobs.

Each dandelion caused 35 damage.

Was this Yuna's skill?

Why dandelions?

Jiang Chen pondered as he asked, "Yuna, what is this?"

Yuna looked at Jiang Chen and sweetly smiled, "This is a manifestation-type arcane spell."

Manifestation-type arcane spell?

It was the first time Jiang Chen had heard this term. He asked again, "What does a manifestation-type arcane spell do?"

"Emm..."

Yuna seemed to be organizing her thoughts. After a moment, she said, "For example, I imagine the dandelions I just saw in my mind, and then I can use arcane energy to make them real."

"Imagine and make real?"

Jiang Chen was astonished and asked, "Can you manifest anything?"

"No, it can't be living things, and it has to have a certain feeling. I don't know how to describe it."

Yuna tilted her head slightly, thinking, and then said, "When I saw the dandelions, I liked them a lot, and then I had a sudden inspiration that I could manifest them. When I tried, they really appeared. I call it the Dandelion Spell!"

"A feeling..."

Jiang Chen couldn't quite understand and asked, "Can you use the Dandelion Spell continuously? Can you release more dandelions at once?"

"My arcane energy isn't very proficient yet. I imagine a large group of dandelions, but I can only manifest six at a time."

Yuna paused and added, "My arcane energy isn't enough to use the Dandelion Spell continuously. I can use it three times in a row at most before needing to rest."

"I see. The more proficient you become with your arcane energy, the higher the damage. The more energy you have, the more times you can use it."

Jiang Chen muttered to himself and then said, "Keep helping Qing Ying. Don't mind me."

"Okay!"

Yuna nodded and released more dandelions, which floated towards the mobs in front of Qing Ying.

As before, the dandelions landed on the mobs, causing the same damage numbers to float up.

Jiang Chen observed for a while and realized that Yuna's "resting for a while" was only 10 seconds?!

After using the Dandelion Spell three times in a row, Yuna only needed to rest for ten seconds before she could use it again!

In other words, Yuna's energy recovered in ten seconds.

After a brief thought, Jiang Chen said, "Yuna, you can use the Dandelion Spell every three seconds or so. Don't use up all your arcane energy at once. This way, you can keep your energy full."

"I understand."

Yuna immediately grasped Jiang Chen's meaning.

After using the Dandelion Spell once, she only needed to wait 3.3 seconds for her arcane energy to fully recover.

She could use the Dandelion Spell continuously.

"At level 5, dealing over 200 damage per skill is quite impressive."

Jiang Chen muttered as he watched Yuna, "And with the Dandelion Spell now, there will surely be other arcane spells later. If she sees something unique and manifests it, the potential is limitless!"

However, Yuna's level was still too low.

Unlike players, she couldn't level up by killing mobs. NPCs had a complex growth mechanism, relying on talent and training speed.

That's why Jiang Chen wanted her to join Skyward Academy, where she could improve her training speed and grow faster!

A few minutes later.

With the help of Tao Xiaoyao and Yuna, all 30 Claw Cat Demons fell under Qing Ying's sword.

"My class change task is complete!"

Qing Ying shouted happily.

Jiang Chen saw that his intimacy with the two girls was just shy of 200 points from reaching 10,000!

"Let's go back to the Royal City."

Jiang Chen turned towards the city gate.

The Chaos Forest was in the northwest direction, requiring them to use the teleportation array in the city to reach the West Gate.

The group arrived at the East Gate and used the teleportation array to return to the Royal City square.

"Wait for me, I'll go submit my class change task!"

Qing Ying said excitedly.

"Qing Ying."

Jiang Chen called out, "Actually, after your class change, it's best for you to go to Skyward Academy. Following us to the Chaos Forest will delay your leveling."

"I don't want to!"

Qing Ying shook her head like a rattle, "I want to go with you. Xiaoyao just helped me, and I want to ensure she reaches her task location safely."

"Alright, go ahead with your class change. We'll wait for you."

Jiang Chen waved his hand nonchalantly.

"Okay!"

Qing Ying quickly ran into the palace.

Two or three minutes later.

Qing Ying emerged from the palace, running excitedly towards Jiang Chen, "Brother Mortal World, look!"

She raised her shield, and a faint golden light shone.

Not only did her body and shield glow, but a light shield extended three meters in front of her.

"Holy Shield Light!"

Jiang Chen smiled.

Holy Shield Light: A class change skill for Holy Shield Knights, making the user invincible and extending a three-meter light shield to protect teammates from frontal attacks.

"Brother Mortal World even knows this, no fun!"

Qing Ying pouted, feeling a bit disappointed that she couldn't show off.

"Let's go to the West Gate."

Jiang Chen didn't say much and used the square's teleportation array to go directly to Skyward City's West Gate!

The journey to the Chaos Forest was not short.

Without mounts, it would take nearly an hour just to travel!

Fortunately, the route to the Chaos Forest was relatively safe.

The group quickly left the city gate and stepped onto an endless grassland, heading northwest.

After walking silently for nearly ten minutes, they reached the edge of the grassland.

Ahead was a vast expanse of black soil.

"How much longer do we have to walk?"

Qing Ying looked at the black soil stretching to the horizon and felt the journey was long.

"Still a long way."

Tao Xiaoyao replied.

At this moment.

"Da-da-da..."

The sound of rapid hoofbeats came from behind, getting closer.

The group turned to look.

"What's that?"

Qing Ying's surprised voice rang out.

Jiang Chen frowned and turned to look.

Four strange-looking beasts were running towards them from a distance.

They had lion heads and camel bodies, covered in leather armor, each about three to four meters long and over two meters tall at the shoulder.

Much larger than ordinary lions!

"Griffin Beasts?"

Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed. These were mounts!

He then saw that each Griffin Beast had a rider.

They held whips, wore white robes, and carried cross-shaped weapons on their backs.

"Judicators from the Church?"

Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

"Whoa~!"

The four riders shouted in unison, stopping their Griffin Beasts in front of Jiang Chen.

"Are you Mortal World?"

The leading man asked.

Jiang Chen saw his name was [Greenway].

"Guess?" Jiang Chen replied.

"I know it's you!" Greenway said immediately.

"Then why ask."

Jiang Chen pursed his lips, "Who are you?"

"I am Greenway, captain of the eighth Judicator squad of the Skyward City branch of the Light Church!"

Greenway said a long string of titles.

"Captain Green, what's the matter?"

Jiang Chen asked, feeling a bit exasperated. He didn't expect the Church to find him so quickly.

Even express delivery wasn't this efficient!

"My name is Greenway!"

Greenway corrected, displeased.

"Alright, Captain Green, what's the matter? I'm quite busy."

Jiang Chen waved his hand dismissively.

"You..."

Greenway took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, "By order of the Bishop, we invite you to the Church. Please come with us."

"Are you kidding? I'm busy right now."

Jiang Chen rejected outright.

"Busy?"

Greenway, still on his mount, frowned.

"Yes."

Jiang Chen nodded, "I'll go to the Light Church later."

"So, you're willing to join the Light Church?" Greenway asked.

Wait, did I say I wanted to join the Light Church?

But...

Jiang Chen smiled, "Of course, I want to join the Light Church!"

"Really?"

Greenway looked skeptical. His mission was to recruit Jiang Chen to the Church, and if he refused, they would consider taking him by force.

"I am devoted to the Light, praise the Light!"

Jiang Chen said sincerely, using a common Church phrase.

"Hahaha, I can feel your sincerity. I look forward to your joining!"

Greenway's eyes lit up, and he asked warmly, "Where are you headed? Do you need us to escort you?"

As soon as he asked, he saw a smile on Jiang Chen's face.

Greenway's heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
