Years passed like flowing water, always gone never to return.
For Ivan and his team, a teleportation distance of five kilometers had become a thing of the past, having passed some time ago.
Now, they faced another milestone—ten kilometers.
When they teleported five kilometers, it had taken them exactly one hundred days.
On the day of their success, everyone including Ivan was overjoyed, but they didn't slack off and immediately moved on to the fifth phase of research.
Ivan, against popular opinion, chose the ten-kilometer distance, and all measures in the fifth phase were planned accordingly.
No more small increments, no more adding just a kilometer at a time.
As many had said, a distance of one kilometer was too short for a Level 3 Sorcerer. Everyone knew deep down that they would eventually take this step; otherwise, increasing the distance bit by bit would consume too much energy and resources.
