The large moth's wings were completely frozen, making even the most basic flight impossible. The only things that could move were its short legs and the two antennae on its head.

"This Stage 5 is Sagittarius, named for its frequent aerial activities and the presence of numerous Gastrea with ranged attacks under its command." Just then, Asagi Aiba's voice rang in everyone's ears.

She revealed the name of this fifth stage. Upon hearing this, Li Yu nodded. Sagittarius? Then, starting today, this Gastrea will also be removed from the list.

Thinking this, Li Yu raised his staff, and the next moment, golden and red Magic Array appeared in the sky. Everyone who saw the Magic Array silently began to retreat a little.

The transport planes on the other end also decisively sped up and retreated. Although they didn't ITEM power of the Magic Array, it was frightening just to look at it, so it was better to get as far away as possible.

The moment the Magic Array took shape, the Thunderfire Sword crashed down, and lightning carrying flames descended from the sky, striking Sagittarius directly.

Sagittarius had just landed on the ground when its body was smashed to pieces. Its powerful regenerative ability allowed its body to slowly heal, but by then it was too late.

The True Magic from the sky had already descended, and the powerful Thunderfire Sword instantly annihilated the Sagittarius in the terrifying power of flames and lightning. A massive shockwave began to ripple outwards.

The mushroom cloud rose, signifying that Sagittarius's life was beginning to be taken by Li Yu. When everyone felt the power growing stronger within them, they understood that Sagittarius had been completely eliminated.

Upon discovering this, everyone became excited. The Gastrea that had survived and had not yet been dealt with in the sky began to flee frantically. Although they did not have much intelligence, the death of their leader plunged them into panic.

The remaining Gastrea dared not linger any longer. Without their leader, they could only flee frantically. No one chased after them, letting the Gastrea go on their own.

After the explosion ended, Li Yu descended from the sky into the huge crater below. Looking at the remaining debris, Li Yu felt a little regretful, because there were no children this time either.

He didn't say anything. After tidying up the remaining items, Li Yu took off and rejoined the others, then headed towards the transport plane.

Seeing this, the pilots quickly slowed down, allowing Li Yu and the others to re-enter the cabin. It's undeniable that being able to fly is incredibly convenient. Once back in the cabin, the transport plane accelerated and left.

"Brother Li Yu, I leveled up!" Just as Li Yu returned to the cabin, Bell told Li Yu the good news. He was overjoyed. He had broken through directly after Li Yu killed Sagittarius.

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Li Yu's eyes, and he immediately congratulated him, saying, "Congratulations, Bell, now you can finally stand on your own."

In just a few months, his strength has already broken through to the fourth level. That's incredibly fast; he's caught up with everyone else.

After congratulating Bell, Li Yu turned his gaze to Haruhime Haruhime, who had also broken through to the fourth rank.

However, Haruhime is more inclined to support roles. Unlike Bell, she doesn't engage in serious hand-to-hand combat during battles, so her strength is still somewhat inferior to Bell's.

However, this didn't matter to Haruhime, since she was never a main combatant. Her role had always been support, and she didn't even have enough magic power to cast other True Magic. Whether it was the Uchide no Kozuchi or the Ninefold Kunou she obtained at the second tier, these two True Magic held an unshakable position in the team.

This True Magic can forcibly elevate a person to First Tier! No matter where it's used, this True Magic is definitely a top-tier (T0) support True Magic. Now that Haruhime has leveled up again, how will the opponent's True Magic change?

"Haruhime, what changes have occurred in your True Magic after the upgrade?" Li Yu couldn't help but ask. Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze to Haruhime, and those who had experienced Haruhime's True Magic were also very much looking forward to it.

Faced with Li Yu's question, Haruhime quickly replied after assessing her condition, "Lord Li Yu, I have gained a True Magic called Sunlight. Anyone I recognize can unleash the Uchide no Kozuchi. The number of people True Magic depends on my magical power."

At this point, her face was filled with joy. When she broke through to the third tier before, it only increased the time of the Uchide no Kozuchi, but now it was a real increase in quantity.

"Wow, the restrictions are lifted? That's great! So, with your current magic power, how many people can you cast the Uchide no Kozuchi on?" Li Yu was also intrigued at this moment; Haruhime really could bring surprises.

Upon hearing this, Haruhime assessed her own True Magic abilities and replied, "I can only cast it on 30 people. I can't handle too many, Lord Li Yu. Also, it's related to the magic power of the person being cast on. Someone as powerful as Lord Li Yu would be too much for Haruhime to handle."

Haruhime explained the details of this new True Magic, and everyone felt something was off about what Haruhime said. However, they quickly stopped paying attention to that and instead looked at Haruhime with some surprise and delight.

She can cast the Uchide no Kozuchi on 30 people? What outrageous True Magic! From now on, Haruhime will be everyone's ultimate trump card. With Haruhime, everyone will have a chance to turn the tide no matter what happens.

After all, when Haruhime casts her True Magic, it doesn't just increase your level; it also increases your magic power and True Qi. When you're out of magic power, if Haruhime casts a True Magic, not only will your strength increase, but your magic power will also increase.

If this happened in a fight, the opponent would probably be desperate, right? It's like the opponent recovers mid-fight, levels up, and has full health and mana!

"Excellent. It seems I need to speed up the progress on the True Magic that stores mana. Only then can Haruhime unleash the full power of her True Magic." Limited by mana? If so, then let's work harder to get that thing out!

Before that, everyone had to deal with the Stage 5 Gastrea in this world. The transport plane carried Li Yu and the others to the location of the next target.

When Li Yu and his group took action, the Seitenshi also informed the leaders of other regions of the purpose of their mission. Upon learning that it was to resolve Phase Five, those people immediately welcomed them.

Over the next few days, Li Yu and his companions began flying all over the world. Their transport plane was like a Spaceship that never landed, constantly soaring through the skies of this world.

Moreover, there were no restrictions whatsoever, because all the regional leaders had issued orders that everyone must cooperate unconditionally once the transport plane entered their territory.

As soon as the plane entered their airspace, a refueling plane followed and resupplyed them. Because of this, everyone didn't need to find a place to stop; they ate, drank, and slept all on the transport plane.

Meanwhile, one by one, the Stage 5 monsters were being wiped out by Li Yu and his group. Especially with Haruhime's True Magic help, everyone had a great time fighting and experiencing their future power.

After experiencing the combat power of the Fifth Tier, everyone was extremely excited and gained a clear understanding of their newfound strength.

This can be considered as a preview of the future combat capabilities. Within a few days, Li Yu and the others successively dealt with several Stage 5 enemies, but most of the time was spent on the transport plane.

Several captains even came on board to help with the shift change. The travel time alone took up a lot of Li Yu and his group's time, while they rarely encountered battles with those at stage five.

In the later fifth stage, Li Yu and his group finally discovered a new child while fighting Gemini, and it turned out to be twins, which explains why it's Gemini.

Li Yu immediately imprinted True Magic on the two children, then notified Nangong Natsuki Li Yu teleporting her back. The True Magic that was originally intended as a safety rope for them was now being used by Li Yu as a delivery.

Nangong Natsuki was speechless at the fact that the package was sent but never returned, but she acquiesced to Li Yu's actions, since the child Li Yu sent back had already figured out the situation.

The problem lies with the soul, but it's quite easy to cure. The main reason is that the soul is too weak and can't keep up with the body's growth, which is why it remains unconscious. Simply suppressing the body will allow them to gradually adapt and eventually awaken.

Because of their extraordinary talent, those children were sent to other places to be carefully cared for. Perhaps when we see them again in the future, they will all be able to stand on their own.

"Next, are these the last two? Only Pisces and Aquarius are left, and these two are in the deep sea at stage five." At this moment, Li Yu and the others were looking at Asagi Aiba's computer on the transport plane.

Now there are only two points left on the map. These Stage 5 Gastrea are monitored all over the world, after all, the harm they can cause is just too great.

Especially the two in the ocean, these two are the culprits that have caused countless small countries to sink to the bottom of the sea. Their fearsome reputation is well-known, and any country with a coastline will keep a close eye on these two Gastrea.

"Yes, that's all that's left, but this time it's a bit troublesome. They've been active in the deep sea, and this location is a deep-sea trench. If we can't get them out, we might not be able to deal with them." Asagi Aiba looked at the two dots on the screen, also with a headache.

These last two are the most troublesome because they live in the deep sea and you never know when they'll come up, and they've been in that spot for a long time.

I wonder if they've already entered a dormant state? Getting them out might be a bit difficult. As for freezing that area of sea with ice True Magic?

It might be possible to freeze them completely at depths of tens or hundreds of meters, but it would be extremely difficult to do so at depths of thousands or even tens of thousands of meters.

As for everyone going down? That option never appeared. There was no way anyone could go down; going down would be no different from committing suicide!

"Yes, Touma Kamijou." Li Yu was also very troubled at this moment. They were only missing these two, but something unexpected happened. It would be fine if they could show their heads, but if they did, they would be instantly killed.

But they weren't bubbling at all, and Li Yu and the others were completely helpless against them. They all looked at each other, at a loss for what to do.

"Can we just use lightning True Magic to electrocute them?" Xia Yu couldn't help but suggest. If they were electrocuted awake, would they emerge from the sea?

"Electricity my foot! That won't work at all. The ocean is so vast, what's the difference between your tiny bit of electricity and stirring a jar with a toothpick?" Li Yu rolled her eyes in annoyance, directly rejecting the guy's idea.

Xia Yu scratched her head upon hearing this, unable to think of a better solution for a moment. It was just too troublesome; nothing worked here, nothing worked there—what was she supposed to do?!

"If there's no other way, do we just have to give up?" Asuna was also quite distressed at this moment. Everyone had been gaining a lot of experience lately. She estimated that killing a Stage 5 monster would increase Asuna's own experience by about 3%.

Her progress bar is now around 60%. If she can kill these two more, they will likely gain a lot of experience after completing their mission of saving the world, which is undoubtedly very important.

In just a few days, they've accomplished what it takes to grind monsters for a long time. How could they not be excited and thrilled with such a leveling speed? But now it seems like they're getting stuck, which is really frustrating.

"Forget it, let's ask Natsuki-chan and see if she can help." Li Yu sighed, feeling a bit of a headache. In the end, he decided to ask Nangong Natsuki for help!

Everyone agreed that this made a lot of sense, and it seemed to be the only thing they could do, since they had no other options and couldn't possibly retrieve them from the deep sea.

"These two Stage 5s are very close together. If one of them is drawn out, the other might also be drawn out." Asagi Aiba showed the distance between the two Stage 5s.

It's only a few dozen nautical miles away, which means that this time everyone will have to deal with Pisces and Aquarius at once. Taking care of both at once shouldn't be a big problem, as long as they don't get away.

Li Yu didn't think too much about it and directly contacted Nangong Natsuki, hoping that Nangong Natsuki could provide a solution. Li Yu began to communicate with Nangong Natsuki through the spatial imprint.

"Moshi moshi, is Nagatsuki there?" Li Yu sent a call request to Nangong Nagatsuki in his mind.

Hearing Li Yu's voice, Nangong Natsuki was immediately annoyed. That wretched guy! She'd already told him not to add "sauce" to her name so casually!!

"Speak!" Nangong Natsuki's dissatisfied tone came through. Although they were in different worlds, Li Yu could feel her displeasure. However, Li Yu didn't take it to heart, after all, there were more important things to do now.

"Natsuki-chan, do you know anyone who can control the ocean? We only have two more Stage 5 challenges left to solve, and they're currently in the deep sea." Li Yu quickly explained the difficulties they were facing and their request. "As your student, you can't just refuse to help, can you?"

Nangong Natsuki frowned upon hearing Li Yu's words. In the deep sea? Looking for someone with the ability to control the ocean? Such beings are extremely rare.

However, she did know someone who could control the ocean, though that guy wasn't that strong—at least not on land. In the sea, he was terrifyingly powerful.

Regarding the problem Li Yu is currently facing, it seems that sending her would easily solve it. After making a decision, Nangong Natsuki slowly said, "Yes, prepare several hundred dollars in cash from our world. I'll send her over, and you can give it to her."

Nangong Natsuki's voice echoed in Li Yu's mind, telling Li Yu to prepare something. Hearing Nangong Natsuki, Li Yu was completely bewildered. Prepare a few hundred yuan for her? What the hell?

Could it really only cost a few hundred dollars to hire someone to do something? Thinking this, Li Yu looked up at the group with some confusion and asked, "Does anyone here have any cash from our world on them?"

Li Yu's sudden question puzzled the students. Why did he suddenly need cash? However, many of them didn't actually have any on them. After all, mobile payments are so common now, and it had been a long time since anyone had used cash.

"Lord Li Yu, I brought this." At this moment, Haruhime spoke up, taking out a stack of brand-new cash from her Space Backpack and handing it to Li Yu; it was exactly ten thousand.

Seeing the cash Haruhime took out, Li Yu took it directly, counted out ten bills, and then returned the rest to her, saying, "Teacher Nangong said a few hundred yuan would be enough, but since we're from different worlds, we'll give you a thousand!"

He wanted to see what kind of person could be so cheap as to only spend a few hundred dollars. Someone who could control the ocean must be quite powerful, right? So this time, Li Yu gave a thousand dollars, and the extra was considered payment for Li Yu copying her abilities.

Hearing Li Yu's words, everyone was somewhat stunned. This was completely unexpected. A few hundred yuan could really get someone to help? Was it really that cheap?

Everyone was now puzzled, curious about the upcoming support. Why only a few hundred dollars?

Li Yu didn't have to wait long before Nangong Natsuki's voice rang in his mind. "Activate a mark, don't teleport back, let me know which space you are in, and I'll send the person to you now."

Upon hearing this, Li Yu activated the spatial mark on his body without saying a word. As he did so, Nangong Natsuki fell silent, and soon a Magic Array appeared in the cabin.

The next moment, a little girl wearing a white dress and a white hat, but with blue hair, was teleported in, and she was already unconscious? Everyone stared at this child who had appeared out of nowhere, their faces full of question marks. Had Teacher Nangong made a mistake?
