My wife, who's in a vegetative state, please stop eavesdropping on my thoughts.

The ability to eliminate obstacles is entirely concentrated on the burst output of the right arm, and there is not much additional effect on the defensive level other than the most basic physical constitution bonus.

When he awakened the mysteries of the mountains here last time, he was surrounded by wind, so even when he reached the 3-kilometer area, he did not feel any sense of oppression.

Only by going through this process with a blank slate can one truly experience the real experience of being a participant.

"So, how exactly did this Corona manage to reach a five-kilometer area using only her physical body?"

Thinking of this, Weiss frowned slightly and looked up at the sky in disbelief.

On the twelve-kilometer-long steps, the red-haired girl was looking down, clearly observing him.

The two gazed at each other for a moment from a vertical distance of ten kilometers.

You should know that when I advanced to the seventh rank, I drank a full 18 drops of annihilation potion. This basic value is definitely not bad among the same rank. I didn't expect that there would be such a huge gap between me and the other party's Conquest Base physique.

I wonder how many bottles of Tier 7 potions Corona drank to complete her advancement...

The base stats of this academic leader seem a little off!

"Om-"

The next second, as Weiss gently raised his hand, an invisible wind field slowly blew out from his body, tightly wrapping and surrounding his body into an airtight sphere.

In an instant, the pressure vanished without a trace, and all obstacles were easily erased.

Weiss resumed his leisurely pace and soon reached an area more than 2.5 kilometers away.

Bingfei followed behind like a little shadow.

Upon seeing this, Lorne, standing in the crowd, stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Others might not be able to sense that Weiss has used his ability.

However, being a fellow Wind Addict, he could immediately recognize that this was the same ability he had used when climbing the tower before, and the operation method was exactly the same.

However, I was exhausted at the 600-meter mark.

But Weiss walked on flat ground in the high-pressure zone 2 kilometers above!

How did they manage to do that...?

In fact, this is not just a difference in numbers, but also a huge gap in the mysteries between us.

Because Weiss has awakened the secrets of the Gale, his wind field is more stable, solid, denser, and extremely powerful. In comparison, Lorne's wind field can only be described as an all-pervasive sieve.

Soon, as Weiss brought Bingfei to the 3-kilometer area without breaking a sweat, the surrounding neighborhoods were in an uproar, especially the academics, who were almost all indignant and righteous indignation.

Why did the Lunette family specifically find a Windbreaker to help Ice Princess?!

The two of them worked together quite well, one in front and one behind. They were clearly prepared. The little swordsman is so wicked!!

Time passed by, second by second.

When Weiss easily stepped into the five-kilometer zone, Corona, who had been watching the fire from the high-level ice ladder across the river, finally showed a slight change in expression.

His expression immediately became alert.

Because she clearly sensed that as Bingfei advanced closer and closer, the signs of her extraordinary power going out of control were becoming more and more serious, and large patches of flames were peeling off her body.

We can't delay any longer...

She couldn't care less about watching the show anymore. She slowly turned around to face the high place and, taking advantage of the fact that Bingfei's sequence ability was still in a natural state of release and not deliberately targeting her, immediately activated and ignited all of her extraordinary power.

A mysterious light suddenly shone in her eyes, and crimson-gold patterns spread outward from the center of her pupils, covering her entire iris.

The next second, her entire body was engulfed by a rainbow light that resembled a phantom sun.

"boom!!!!"

It was accompanied by a deafening explosion caused by the intense combustion of steam and high temperature.

Despite being suppressed by Jhin's aura, Corona managed to drag out a shocking trail of burning, withering sparks.

Sweeping through the fierce winds, it broke through the twenty-kilometer mark in an instant, like a burst of flame!

At this altitude, the air here is no longer just cold; it is an absolute realm that penetrates to the bone marrow and flesh, capable of freezing even supernatural powers.

Corona gritted her teeth and struggled forward for another kilometer or so before finally collapsing, exhausted, on the 21-kilometer step, panting heavily.

Before the sweat on his forehead could even slide off, it froze into tiny ice crystals, forming a layer of white frost along his hair and eyelashes.

She looked slightly disheveled, panting as she looked down at the ground.

This is pretty much her limit right now.

Even without Ice Queen's damned sequence suppression, he could only struggle for another 22 kilometers before he was exhausted.

If the two of them can easily surpass this height.

I have nothing to say...

A dozen minutes later, when Weiss stepped onto the 8-kilometer stretch of road as if walking on flat ground, the entire population of the royal city was almost collectively numb. Even the maids of the Lunette family who were standing in the corner of the hotel suite could not hide the shock on their faces.

You see, they saw Lady Cassandra and Mr. Weiss being all lovey-dovey every day and thought that their mistress unexpectedly preferred this kind of gentle and delicate type.

I never expected this son-in-law's abilities to be so unexpected...

Meanwhile, the Night Patrol Headquarters and the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce reacted similarly. Although Winter Duke, who had been defeated by Weiss, had also reached eight kilometers, going all out and feeling relaxed and comfortable were two completely different things.

This Weiss, he clearly hasn't used his true abilities yet!

According to the analysis of the data and intelligence, he is currently on the dual 7th level path of Storm and Annihilator Feather. When he really unleashes his power, it will be an absolutely spectacular sight of wind and rain and earth-shattering collapse.

But at this moment, everything around him remained calm, clearly indicating that he hadn't even used half of his power...

Sitting in the open-air cafe, the three little ones with brightly colored hair stared blankly up at the projected screen.

For some inexplicable reason, Nefertille suddenly blurted out, "I suddenly realize how handsome Weiss is. What about you guys?"

Mona nodded somewhat blankly.

Seeing the words "defeated Winter Duke" in the written intelligence report and witnessing him effortlessly traverse the 8-kilometer stretch of the Snow Palace Trial are worlds apart in terms of the impact and emotion they evoke.

The next second, Vera expressionlessly picked up two pieces of bread and precisely stuffed them into their slightly open mouths, one on each side.

At the same time, Oliver's expression darkened slightly as he watched the silver-haired figure flying in the projection.

Seeing this, he was almost 100% certain that his two public humiliations were orchestrated by Weiss.

However, what troubled him more was the time he used lightning to instantly kill an 8th-tier Feathered Warrior during the migration.

In fact, after joining the royal city, he secretly went to the outskirts to try a few times, but he was never able to successfully unleash that Super Thor Burst again.

Even the finest thunderclouds couldn't condense into a coherent shape...

"So, that was actually the lightning you summoned...?"

Oliver muttered to himself, his expression somewhat gloomy and lost in thought.

Logically speaking, he and Weiss were completely at odds, and even somewhat hostile towards each other. However, after Weiss plotted against him twice, he inexplicably helped him achieve an unprecedented display of arrogance.

Although he couldn't fully understand it in his current state of mind, he was actually very clear that this lack of understanding was the real, insurmountable gap between drug addicts and naturally awakened drug addicts.

Otherwise, what else could explain his erratic behavior besides genuinely doing whatever he wanted?

...

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, as Weiss stepped into the 10-kilometer zone with an air of nonchalance, the academics in the crowd were almost numb.

While it's true that Weiss and Bingfei's 2v1 was a bit cheating and tasteless.

But he... he actually climbed ten kilometers on his own.

No one can question this achievement.

At least within the context of night patrols in recent years, this is extremely rare!

The moment he stepped into the ten-kilometer zone, Weiss immediately realized that the wind field intensity he was currently experiencing had reached its limit.

The sticky chill here intensified once again.

Next, we must further develop our capabilities to contend with the will of the extreme cold and white snow here.

He slightly separated his hands and pressed them down at his sides, and a gust of wind suddenly arose without warning.

Silver hair flew wildly, the wind swept away the clouds, and the blue sky and sea of ​​clouds in the clear sky were completely crushed. As the surrounding temperature began to rise slightly, the will of the snow that had been pressing down on this place also weakened a bit.

This is the most basic, initial ability of a climatologist to manipulate local climate.

That is, the move Lorne made to jinx all his competitors.

However, instead of directly eliminating the dispelled pressure, Weiss secretly activated the Vortex Mystery, using the wind field to precisely control the direction of the rising clouds and steam, carrying them along with the remaining will of the snow and transporting them upwards along the ice ladder, finally superimposing them all onto Corona.

At this very moment, in the 21-kilometer zone, Corona was resting when the sudden, overwhelming pressure surged in, causing her to feel short of breath. Gasping for air, she glared down at the pressure below, gritting her teeth and saying:

"Are these two never going to stop?!"

After things became much easier down below, Weiss continued climbing.

But to his surprise, the Ice Queen remained leisurely floating a meter behind him.

Weiss frowned slightly as he examined the wind field.

They immediately realized that there was absolutely no oppressive aura emanating from the Ice Consort.

If the pressure from the snow, which I dispersed through the wind field, was reduced by half, then the pressure that Ice Queen experienced from the very first meter onwards was zero!

Because, perhaps due to being enchanted by Snow White, her Sequence ability could even dispel some of the extraordinary power carrying Snow White's will.

"I see......"

Weston immediately recalled the incident in the restaurant that day when Ice Queen forcibly transferred Ice Coins to him.

As a sorcerer of extravagance, this woman not only has the highest priority in terms of sequence abilities, but even the Snow White Factor obeys her commands, and can disregard the rules of the game set by Snow White.

This is practically an invincible ability to complete a logical closed loop...

Calling her the next Night Patrol Snow Queen isn't really a bad idea.

In contrast, although he was also a member of the Snow White's family, his development of ice enchantment was practically zero, and his resistance to the Snow White's pressure on this ice ladder was negligible.

He even had a vague suspicion that the pleasure this woman derives from the active activation of the Snow White factor each time she comes into contact with him is likely more than ten times greater than his own. It is that extreme enjoyment that makes her cling to him so desperately.

"Wait, she can't possibly reach the top directly...?"

The somewhat unsettling thought flashed through Weiss's mind for a moment, then he shook his head, feeling it was unlikely to be that bad.

Even for Ice Queen, dispelling Snow White's will would definitely consume physical strength and extraordinary energy, and she couldn't keep it up indefinitely. The higher the level, the stronger the concentration of Snow White's factors would become, and Ice Queen would eventually be exhausted as well.

However, just in case, we should speed things up a bit on our side.

As Weiss's silver hair was whipped straight up by the sudden burst of wind, the clouds in the sky began to churn wildly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

With a "whoosh!" sound.

The sky was suddenly filled with changing clouds.

The invisible wind field surrounding Weiss was swept up by countless violent air currents converging from all directions, and was forcibly condensed from a transparent ethereal body into a visible entity, forming a spiral-shaped vortex wind field that directly stirred up a huge funnel-shaped hole in the surrounding sea of ​​clouds.

Then, he spread outwards with the heavy wind field weighing hundreds of tons, carrying enormous mass and density. His entire body was tightly wrapped in armor woven from the storm, and he began to move upwards like a dump truck in a typhoon.

"Boom! Boom!!!"

In an instant, a white sonic boom circle exploded behind Weiss, and the buzzing sound of the sonic boom spread in all directions like the tolling of a giant bell.

With a storm-force field swirling around him, Weiss swept through everything in his path, tearing all the oppressive aura in his way to shreds.

In just a few seconds, he had already broken through the 12-kilometer barrier.

This is the area where Corona was stuck for a long time.

Then--

15 km, 18 km, 21 km...

Under the incredulous gazes of everyone, and amidst the utterly devastated expressions of countless members of the academy, Weiss, seemingly the embodiment of a raging storm, had directly risen to the same level as the academy's top leader, Corona!

Logically, strong winds should only make the fire burn more fiercely.

However, for some unknown reason, the mass of the whirlwind surrounding Weiss was unusually heavy.

Each gust of wind that passed over the flames didn't fuel them, but rather slammed down like a thousand-ton hammer, extinguishing all the remaining flames on Corona's body, along with the lingering inferno around her!

Corona's hair was disheveled by the sudden gust of wind, and she stared blankly as Weiss so easily surpassed her limits.

Her red eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of inquiry in them.

"That's really strange, where did this guy suddenly come from...?"
