Chapter 530
Since the outbreak of the Gate Incident, Connor Lint’s supernatural power had mostly been used for rescue operations. While his powers had grown, Connor Lint’s physical prowess hadn’t progressed much, and his personal combat strength was still lower than that of an ordinary soldier.
However, his teleportation superpower was a significant asset. Connor Lint could move around without restrictions and could also teleport with others.
It wasn’t that Connor Lint’s ability couldn’t be used offensively. However the monster had to weigh less than two hundred kilograms for him to be able to move it. For instance, he could teleport to a high altitude and drop the monster, letting it freefall. However, the sudden change in pressure caused him immense pain, and so after a few tries, he gave up on using his ability offensively.
In the time he took to deal with one monster of that size, Ellen Artorius or Heinrich could massacre an entire wave of monsters. Therefore, Connor Lint was tasked with rescuing survivors from battlefields. For the moment, Lint’s power was used to safely evacuate incapacitated soldiers in large-scale battle situations to the rear.
His teleportation ability essentially made him a mage who could teleport without spending time to cast. Moreover, his teleportation wasn’t hindered by any magical barriers.
Although he couldn’t perform teleportation across vast distances, he compensated for this limitation in distance by teleporting quickly and consecutively. In such a manner, Connor Lint could return to the imperial capital Gradium within five minutes.
His abilities also made him useful as a scout who could be quickly deployed and retreat in any situation. Now that the army was making its advance, he was more often assigned these missions rather than rescue operations.
Sabioleen Tana had told him about the unidentified force that were clearing the path ahead of the Allied Forces, and gave him a straightforward directive: verify how far ahead along the advance route had the monster hordes been exterminated.
Since he relied on superpowers, he didn’t need time to cast a spell, and set off immediately.
Pop!
Connor Lint reached the area Sabioleen Tana and Ellen had scouted out in less than a minute.
