n85 Nine-Story Demon Tower

nChu Bai’s eyes lit up when he heard the city lord’s words.

nWas another mission coming his way?

nChu Bai then said, “I’ll listen to what you have to say first.”

nThe city lord nodded and then said, “In the northwest of Liuzhou City, near the demon race, there’s a demonic land. There’s a tower there that’s called the Nine-Story Demon Tower. It should have been created by an expert 10,000 years ago. A large number of demons are sealed inside. It’s rumored that an ominous object is sealed inside as well. Because the records are from too long ago, they aren’t clear. It seems that the object is an existence that has once greatly harmed the continent.

n“But in recent years, the seal has loosened, and many demons have escaped. Some of them have even come to our human race and endangered the safety of the people.

n“The demonic qi there is too thick. Not only me, but some masters from the continent have also come here to deal with the monsters inside, but the demonic qi is too strong and they can’t get close. You adventurers from the other world are immune to the demonic qi inside.”

nChu Bai nodded.

n“So, I want to invite you to enter the Nine-Story Demon Tower to see what the situation is like inside. However, you need at least three people to enter. If you can successfully complete this mission, I’ll give you a treasure that you’ll definitely like.”

nDing. You have triggered the hidden mission, Nine-Story Demon Tower. Mission reward: mysterious treasure. Mission time limit: three days. Mission limitation: three players required. Mission penalty: none. Do you accept?

n“Of course, no problem,” Chu Bai replied.

nDing. You’ve accepted the mission.

n“Good! You take this! Since I’m asking you to go there, I’ll definitely have to ensure your safety.”

nHe handed Chu Bai a total of four talismans.

nDing. You’ve obtained fixed-point teleportation talismans.

nFixed-point teleportation talisman: place one of them in a location to mark and then use the other to instantly appear at the marked place. Usage: one.

n“These are talismans made by the Nine Swords Sect. You can place one outside the Nine-Story Demon Tower, and the other three can be used by you and your two teammates. If you encounter danger, you can instantly leave. At least it can guarantee your safety.”

n“Many thanks, City Lord!”

n“It’s fine. I only dare to assign this task to you because you’re the Son of Destiny. Be careful!”

nThe city lord patted Chu Bai’s shoulder.

n“Yes.”

nThen, Chu Bai walked out.

nLu Yufan saw Chu Bai coming out and immediately went up to him.

n“Chu Bai, what’s the reward?”

nChu Bai said, “Level-20 Gold and Silver equipment. They’re not of much use…”

nLu Yufan was speechless.

nWow, was this how a big shot acted?

n“Let’s go. I’m going to appraise a few pieces of equipment and then eat something,” Chu Bai said.

n“Alright .”

nThe two of them went to Mr. Sun’s appraisal shop.

nWhen he saw who it was, Shopowner Sun’s mouth twitched.

n“Hey, where’s the 30% discount sign?” Chu Bai asked with a smile.

nShopowner Sun was speechless.

nThe corners of his mouth twitched again.

n“The event is over.” Then, he glanced at Lu Yufan, who was looking around the store.

n“The aura of an elf…” Mr. Sun muttered to himself and looked at Chu Bai.

n“If you have any equipment for appraisal, take it out.”

nChu Bai then passed a few pieces of equipment to him.

nThey were all dropped by the Burning Flame Heavenly Fire Beast.

nThe equipment that the city lord gave him had already been appraised.

n“You’re really something. I haven’t seen you in a while and you’ve brought over another Dark Demon weapon.”

nMr. Sun took the Beast King’s Skyfire Sword.

n“Are there no other events?” Chu Bai asked.

n“The discount event is still going on. You’re the Son of Destiny, so I’ll give you another 50% discount. You can go and play the lottery.”

nChu Bai then walked over.

n“Why did he call you the Son of Destiny?” Lu Yufan asked curiously.

nChu Bai randomly picked a lot and said, “Because I passed the abyss-difficulty trial.”

n“So that’s how it is.”

nLu Yufan came to a realization.

nThen, Chu Bai handed the piece of paper to Mr. Sun.

n“10% off.”

n“Cough, cough—”

nShopowner Sun immediately started coughing.

nHis eyes widened as he looked at the folded piece of paper Chu Bai was holding. His beard was standing on end.

nAnother 10% discount?

nThere was only one 10% discount out of thousands of them, and he got it twice in a row?

n“Take it away.”

nWith a flash of black light, Mr. Sun threw the Beast King’s Skyfire Sword to Chu Bai.

nBeast King’s Skyfire Sword. Grade: Dark Demon, Usage level:15. Usage requirements: swordsman. A sword that gathers fire energy. Extremely sharp and powerful.

nAttributes: strength 50, attack 100, critical chance 10%. All attacks ignore 20% of the target’s defense. All attacks have a 5% chance to inflict a five-second burn effect.

nWill of Fire: after activation, all attacks in the next ten seconds will have a fixed damage of 300 points. Cooldown time: five minutes.

nHeavenly Flame Slash: after activation, attacks will become long-range attacks for the next 20 seconds, releasing a flaming sword aura up to ten meters. There is a 100% chance of inflicting a five-second burn on the target. Cooldown time: five minutes.

nIt was a very powerful sword!

nAs a level-15 Dark Demon weapon, its attack power was increased by 200 points, including strength!

nThe skills were also quite exaggerated, and there were even skills that could turn melee into ranged.

n“It’s so powerful.”

nLu Yufan exclaimed in surprise when she saw the attributes.

n“Go and ask Sister Qianyue if she wants it. If she wants it, I’ll keep it for her,” Chu Bai said.

n“Alright,” she said.

nLu Yufan then hid at the side and started chatting with Jiang Qianyue.

n“There’s no problem with these two.”

nMr. Sun passed the equipment to Chu Bai in a bad mood.

nBeast King’s Skyfire Pants. Grade: Gold. Usage level: 20. Usage requirement: swordsman.

nAttributes: HP 500, defense 50, lower body damage reduced by 20%, fire attributes damage reduced by 50%.

nPants usually did not have any skills.

nThe attributes of this pair were indeed better. Then, Chu Bai replaced the equipment with the level five silver equipment, the Wolf King Armor.

nCharacter: Bai Ye.

nLevel: 22.

nTitle: Son of Destiny, Merica Nation’s Best Friend.

nHunger: 61.

nReputation: 611,000.

nLuck: Max; Charm: 35; Comprehension: 35.

nFour main attributes—Physique: 80; Spirit: 110; Strength: 225; Agility: 80.

nHP: 2,830.

nMana: 1,310.

nATK: 680.

nMagic Attack: 220.

nDefense: 316.

nMovement speed: 424.

nCritical chance: 0.

nHis HP was almost over 3,000, and his defense was over 300.

nAs for the other Beast King’s Heavenly Fire Shield, Chu Bai was too lazy to look at its attributes.

n“Sister Qianyue wants it. She’s willing to pay three million,” Lu Yufan said as she leaned over.

nChu Bai did not intend to take her money, because…

nChu Bai wanted to establish a guild. Lu Yufan, Yu Qingyu, Jiang Qianyue, and Playboy were all people Chu Bai wanted to invite!

nThe three of them were worthy of Chu Bai’s invitation just based on their talents.

nHowever…

nHe did not have much money left. He had spent three million to make the system announcement, so he only had one million on him. If he played games with only one million, he would not even be able to afford a prop he liked.

nHe would just take the money then.

n“Alright,” he said.

n“Hehe…”

n“Mr. Sun, how much is it?” Chu Bai asked.

n“It’s 12 gold coins. You got a total of 60% off, so it’s six silver coins in total.”

nShopowner Sun was about to break down.

nChu Bai handed over a gold coin.

n“No need for change.”

nShopowner Sun was speechless.

n‘F*ck! As if I need a gold coin from you!’
