Missiles Aren't as Cost-Effective as Magic

After leaving the Dungeon, Li Yu teleported back to the dormitory of Boundary University without hesitation. What would have taken them almost a day was brought back instantly by Li Yu.

Looking at the familiar surroundings, everyone was surprised. Li Yu couldn't help but say, "Alright, those who need to rest, let's rest for a bit. We'll go find Natsuki-chan again tomorrow."

After returning to the dormitory Li Yu said this and went back to his room. Seeing this, the others also went back to their rooms and washed up properly.

Li Yu also took a shower, and as soon as he came out, he received a message from Asuna Li Yu, just one sentence. "Want to come up?"... Need I say more? Of course, Li Yu went up.

After letting everyone rest well in the dormitory for a day, Li Yu and the others went to look for Nangong Natsuki the next day. After sending her a message, Li Yu led the students to his classroom.

The school was already on holiday. Apart from some senior students who stayed on campus, many students had gone home or gone to the Dimensional Rift for training.

After all, several new Dimensional Rift have appeared on the Boundary Island, which is very attractive, so the senior students naturally want to go and train properly.

Li Yu and the others arrived at the classroom, and Nangong Natsuki arrived quickly as well. After appearing in the classroom, she scanned the students below. After a night's rest, many students had recovered their energy.

Seeing this, Nangong Natsuki slowly spoke up, "We'll talk about your new world later. Let's discuss something else first."

Upon hearing Nangong Natsuki's words, everyone immediately sat up straight, silencing themselves and pricking up their ears to hear what Nangong Natsuki had to say.

"You've all passed this time, reaching the Fifth Tier in strength. But you won't be so lucky next time. Your speed can no longer keep up with Li Yu's. If you encounter an even more powerful world, you definitely won't be able to participate." Nangong Natsuki's words silenced everyone.

New students might not feel it much, but those who were in the same class as Li Yu from the beginning felt it deeply. Everyone awakened together and was then assigned to the same class.

As for Li Yu, his leveling speed was like he had a cheat code, constantly increasing. In the early stages, they could barely keep up, since the gap wasn't that big. But after this, Li Yu's strength completely left them behind.

Moreover, this pace is likely to continue. Although everyone has broken through to the Fifth Tier and can participate in this world mission, what about next time?

Next time, everyone might not be able to keep up, right? This trip to the other world will take an unknown amount of time, but it's impossible for everyone to break through to the Sixth Tier in such a short time.

In other words, this mission may be the last time everyone explores the new world with Li Yu. From the next mission onwards, they probably won't have that opportunity again.

"I hope everyone can improve their strength as soon as possible. After all, Li Yu won't wait for you. If you want to continue exploring more worlds, you'll have to work hard." Nangong Natsuki looked meaningfully at the students below.

Li Yu's strength will only grow stronger. This class has changed since they entered the university, with Li Yu as the absolute core, and then building up a supporting team.

If we consider this class as a guild, then Li Yu is the guild leader, and everyone else is his subordinate, his assistant, and his helper when Li Yu Trailblaze the other world.

However, now that Li Yu is leveling up faster, the others naturally need to catch up quickly as well, otherwise they won't be as useful if they fall behind.

It may sound a bit cruel, but that's the truth. Nangong Natsuki didn't say these things aloud, but it's good that others can understand. If they can't, then I'm sorry.

The students in the class were all incredibly serious at this moment; the pressure suddenly increased. Would anyone be willing to give up Trailblaze a new world? The answer was no!

It goes without saying how much benefit the first group of people who followed Li Yu to the other world gained—they became rich overnight, and had all sorts of things they never dared to dream of. The same was true for the new students who joined the university afterward.

Trailblaze new worlds has many benefits, because the higher-ups are never stingy with rewards. Under such circumstances, it's absolutely impossible for them not to continue Trailblaze new worlds.

So from now on, they had no choice but to keep up with Li Yu's pace, to keep following him to Trailblaze new worlds.

Get stronger, get stronger, get stronger! This became the sole objective for everyone in the class; nothing else mattered.

"Alright, I've said everything I needed to say. You can figure out the rest yourselves. Now, I'll tell you about the world you're going to next." After finishing her sentence, Nangong Natsuki began to explain the various aspects of the other world.

That world only allows people below the Eighth Tier to enter, and going there requires permission from that side, which is equivalent to adding an entry application. Similarly, coming from there also requires an application.

In the past, you might have been subject to oversight there, because this oversight came from the World Will. You couldn't just do whatever you wanted. If you did something heinous in that world, they had the right to send you back directly.

If you're someone who smuggles yourself over there, they have the right to kill you on the spot. So, in that world, you need to behave yourself and not cause trouble.

Of course, despite the many conditions, you will be treated as locals when you go there, and you can even learn various things there if you meet certain conditions.

"I hope that when you go there, you can find a place to properly learn about the knowledge of that world. That is the main purpose of your trip." Nangong Natsuki said at the end, directly stating everyone's main mission.

Upon hearing this, Li Yu couldn't help but ask, "Then what if we get caught up in some war? What do you mean?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Natsuki merely glanced at him indifferently before explaining, "Then let's do it. There's nothing to hesitate about. As long as you don't cause damage to that world, they generally won't interfere."

The bottom line has been drawn, but who knows if it will lead to war? They don't know the specifics of that world yet, only some basic facts.

The specific situation needs to be explored by Li Yu and others, since people above the Eighth Tier are not allowed to enter. Therefore, they can only send Li Yu and his group to explore.

"I see, I understand now." Having figured this out, Li Yu was relieved. As long as the world isn't destroyed, right? No problem!

They're good people, how could they do something so terrible? So there's no need to worry about that, they just want to go there to learn something.

First, we need to go there and figure out exactly what timeline it is, and which Type-Moon worldline it is, before deciding on the arrangements.

Sending these guys over there to study for a summer vacation isn't a bad idea, and then Li Yu can go participate in the Holy Grail War himself? Hmm... that's decided.

"When do we set off!" After figuring out many things, Li Yu couldn't help but ask. He still didn't know where this new passage was.

"I'll give you a day to prepare. We'll depart tomorrow." After saying this, Nangong Natsuki left. She had said what needed to be said, and these people had experience with how to prepare.

After Nangong Natsuki left, everyone's eyes turned to Li Yu. Xia Yu couldn't help but ask, "Class monitor, what are we going to prepare next?"

"Prepare gold, what else? That world isn't some Apocalyptic World, so all we need to prepare is gold." Li Yu shook his head and voiced his thoughts.

Go to the Nasuverse, which is in the 1990s, not the end of the world. We can't just throw them into the Lostbelt, so all we need to do to go to that world is prepare gold.

After all, no matter what world you're in, you can't get anywhere without money. With money, anything is possible. You could even order a batch of weapons from an arms dealer to bombard those Magecraft if you have the money to participate in the Holy Grail War.

Magecraft can't withstand the damage from these firearms, after all, a certain Magus Killer likes to greet people with an RPG!

Thinking of this, Li Yu couldn't help but add, "Perhaps... we could prepare some firearms?"

It's useful to carry some with you.

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned. Firearms? Those things have no advantage in the face of True Magic. That's why many firearms have already been phased out, since a missile is no match for a True Magic.

"It seems a bit difficult to buy those things, right?" Asuna looked at Li Yu with some doubt. Although those things were being phased out one after another, they were still quite dangerous to ordinary people.

At this moment, Asagi Aiba told everyone some news, "No, the school sells them, and some are made by the third and fourth-year students. If you want them, you can still buy them."

Everyone was immediately filled with question marks upon hearing this. What outrageous news had they heard? Upperclassmen selling this stuff? Xia Yu couldn't help but exclaim, "What the hell? Upperclassmen are part-time arms dealers? Is that even possible?"

"It doesn't seem surprising. After all, Boundary University has many geniuses, and the higher-ups haven't given up on researching firearms, so it's not surprising at all that some senior students would go and work on these things to earn funding." After thinking for a moment, Li Yu roughly understood the reason.

"That's right, those weapons are indeed going to be phased out, but not completely. Research on them is still ongoing. If you want to buy them, just go directly to those senior students." Asagi Aiba explained these things.

She spends all her time online, so she knows a lot about what's going on at school. Once they had a direction, they set off without hesitation, directly searching for the upperclassmen based on the information given by Asagi Aiba.

When the group arrived at the Weapons Department of Boundary University, there were still many senior students there. Some were tinkering with their newly made weapons, while others were testing the bombs they had just created.

Every now and then, Li Yu could sense fluctuations in magical energy; some weapons combining magic and technology had also been created here.

Upon arriving here, a hint of surprise flashed in Li Yu's eyes. Technology True Magic? These people are truly outrageous.

Their arrival was quickly met with a warm welcome. Li Yu didn't waste any words and directly stated what he needed. Upon hearing that they were there to buy weapons, the senior students immediately became incredibly enthusiastic, frantically trying to sell Li Yu and his group various weapons.

"Aren't there any purchase restrictions?" Li Yu stared into deep thought as a senior student pushed out a missile. What the hell is this? According to the other person's description, is it a supersonic missile? Or a simplified launch version?

With the power of the awakened masses, any second-tier individual can carry the weapon with incredible speed, and a single strike can even unleash the power of a fourth-tier True Magic's True Magic.

"What restrictions? As long as you don't blow these things up recklessly, there are no restrictions. You can use them freely in the other world, as long as you don't use them here." The senior grinned.

Hearing this, Li Yu understood and immediately said, "Give me ten individual rocket launchers, then some more capable of providing fire coverage, and some sniper rifles..."

Li Yu isn't short of money right now, so if he can afford to buy them, of course he should buy some to play with! He can use these to snipe at Kiritsugu Emiya's central position later!!

The others were speechless when they heard what Li Yu wanted to buy, because what Li Yu said next was enough to start a small war in the past.

Although these things are much cheaper, the price is still too high when you add it all up. It's nowhere near as convenient as True Magic, since True Magic only costs 300 yuan a bottle... wait, the little Blue Bottle has now dropped to just over 200 yuan.

Then you can launch 10 missiles, but Li Yu buying 10 missiles? The price is already over a million, the cost-effectiveness is simply incomparable!!

The senior students were thrilled to finally have a customer. They gave away the guns that Li Yu and the others needed for free, and each of them bought some more, just to play with them.

Anyway, there's Space Backpack, so everyone can carry it with them. Maybe we'll need it someday? It won't expire just by leaving it there.

After purchasing these items, everyone left the school and exchanged them for some gold. This gold was for use in the other world. Li Yu wasn't short of money, so he simply exchanged it for 300 million in cash worth of gold bars to avoid having to run around aimlessly later.

After dealing with these things, Li Yu and his group passed by a collectibles shop. He suddenly went inside and bought some antiques of great historical value.

Looking at what Li Yu had bought, Asuna asked curiously, "You've gotten into collecting antiques? These things are very expensive!!"

She couldn't understand how Li Yu had developed such a hobby. Moreover, the antiques he bought weren't things like vases or calligraphy and paintings, but rather weapons that she couldn't understand, things that had been used by some person.

"It might be useful. That world has Heroic Spirits, and they're even the guardians of the world. According to the information Natsuki-chan gave me, Heroic Spirits can be summoned, but it requires some kind of medium." Li Yu looked at what he had bought, a slight smile playing on his lips.

He wasn't worried that he had bought a fake; the mysterious aura emanating from it couldn't lie. As God Slayer, Li Yu was quite sensitive to these things.

That's why I specifically selected and bought some. Even though the worlds are different, it should still be able to summon, right? After all, if you're going to use this thing to summon, wouldn't you have to come down and see what's going on?

Asuna was taken aback when she heard Li Yu say that. Oh, I see. Then it might actually be useful. She didn't say anything more.

After purchasing these items, everyone returned to their dormitory to await the arrival of tomorrow. The girls in the class immediately pulled Li Yu aside and began asking him all sorts of questions.

Take Yun Shu for example. She is now eager to complete her Second Magic Source. She has been studying the materials that Li Yu uploaded for several months and has already started to try.

She has already established the mark on her heart, but opening up space is proving difficult for her. After all, she is not good at Space Magic, so she dares not act recklessly in this regard.

That's why she can only ask Li Yu for advice on how to proceed. Yun Shu explained her situation to Li Yu.

Hearing Yun Shu's words, Li Yu said with some surprise, "You've already gone this far? Then let me help you. Come sit in front of me and watch me."

Since the other party has gone this far, Li Yu naturally doesn't mind helping out. She only needs to create a space and fix it in place before she can start storing magic power, but this step requires extreme caution.

Upon hearing this, Yun Shu hurriedly sat down in front of Li Yu. The next moment, Li Yu pointed a finger at her forehead and said, "Follow my magic."

As soon as Li Yu finished speaking, Yun Shu quickly felt Li Yu's magic enter her body and then surge from her forehead to her heart. Seeing this, Yun Shu hurriedly did as she was told.

She began to circulate her magic power in the way Li Yu had instructed, and with Li Yu's help, a spatial imprint quickly appeared at her heart. Everyone present held their breath, afraid of disturbing the two of them.

The mark was generated, and then Li Yu helped the other party create a space. At this point, Li Yu stopped. How to stabilize the space was Yun Shu's own business. "Handle the rest yourself!"

After Li Yu finished speaking, everyone waited quietly. Yun Shu, meanwhile, was very serious and began to stabilize the space around her heart according to the information Li Yu had given her.

After about half an hour, Yun Shu finally stopped. Feeling the magical source forming in her heart, she was overjoyed. Yun Shu began to try to infuse her own magical power into it, and as expected, she succeeded. The second magical source was complete!
