Chapter 1096: Main Damage

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Bai had already arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion.

When the guards at the door saw this scene, they instantly brought him in very quickly. Perhaps this was the treatment of a high reputation.

“Why are you looking for me?” The City Lord came here immediately. At the same time, he was very depressed when he saw the situation here. He did not expect this guy to come again. He definitely did not have anything good to do when he came here.

“It’s nothing. I just want to upgrade my skill. I don’t care how much it costs.” Chu Bai did not want to use this incomplete skill. After all, the side effects of this skill were still very serious.

This skill is enough for you to use. Why are you still doing this?” The City Lord could not understand why this young man was so stubborn. After all, the effect of this skill should be enough to use.

“I really can’t. Although this skill is very strong, I always feel strange when I use it. I hope I can reduce the side effects a little more.”

Chu Bai described it in detail. When he was fighting, he didn’t dare to use it too much every time he moved, because once he used it too much, his body would feel very uncomfortable.

“So that’s how it is? It seems that there are some side effects that I don’t know about. This skill belongs to my family. How can I easily give it all to you?” The City Lord’s words were indeed a headache.

He didn’t expect the skill to have such strict requirements and not give it to him.

Chu Bai really didn’t expect that even when he had to pay such a high price, he still wouldn’t hand it over to him.

He did not expect that even after knowing this, she still refused to hand it over to him. What price was there to pay?

It’s not that I can’t give you this thing. I just need to pay more. You should know that.” The City Lord did not expect that the latter part of the sentence would actually be about increasing the price.

Chu Bai really didn’t expect things to turn out like this. So, why did he have to say so much nonsense just because he wanted to increase the price?

“Then how much do you want to add to the price I just said? You can’t possibly be all the money I have, right?”

Chu Bai really couldn’t figure out what this guy wanted. After all, if he wanted to get so many things from him, he probably couldn’t just get them with money.

“Of course, this thing is not as important as money. I need something special. I hope you can help me find this thing. A few days ago, there was an evil dragon at the port…”

The City Lord was about to continue when he saw Chu Bai’s nervous expression. “Wait a minute, wait a minute. That evil dragon has nothing to do with me. My appearance there was purely a coincidence. Don’t suspect me of these things.” Chu Bai’s nervous expression made the City Lord somewhat puzzled.

“What are you talking about? I don’t know what you’re talking about. I just want you to investigate what appeared in the end of that evil dragon. It’s said that it has a very useful evil dragon core.”

The City Lord did not understand what this young man in front of him was saying. He did not want to pursue the origin of the evil dragon. After all, how this dragon appeared was not important to him.

What he wanted to figure out now was what the dragon dropped.

“So you want this thing. Then you’ve come to the right person. Only I know about this thing.”

Chu Bai immediately took out the thing in his hand. Only he had this thing now.

After Chu Bai took out this item, things became much simpler.

Now, he no longer had any worries from before.

“Alright, since you’ve handed over the Evil Dragon Core, I’ll give you the skill book for the third floor.”

The City Lord very readily took out the third layer’s skill.

Chu Bai had instantly mastered the third level of the skill. At this moment, he finally realized that the side effects of this skill had completely disappeared.

However, every time it was used, 1% of the maximum mana would be deducted.

Chu Bai nodded after understanding the situation. This price was indeed small. Magic wasn’t too much of a restriction for him.

“Since you have mastered all three levels of my family’s ultimate arts, you should leave for the rest of the time. There will be more chaos in this city.” The City Lord said this with a deeper meaning.

“Is there anything I can help you with? After all, my Honor Points are so high.” Chu Bai seemed to understand these things very well. After all, he had been very happy when he was farming Honor Points. However, since the City Lord had said this, it meant that there must be something in this city that needed his help.

Otherwise, there was no need for him to take the initiative to say such words in front of her.

“I don’t need your help here for the time being, but if you want to help, of course you can stay.”

As expected, the City Lord hoped that someone would help.

The reason why he said this was because he had many considerations in his heart.

“Looks like you still need my help. Then just tell me what you need my help with.”

Chu Bai didn’t expect this old city lord to play with so many colorful things. If there was anything, just say it. Why did he have to go through so much trouble? Now that it was so troublesome, he still needed to think about it himself.

This matter is actually not that difficult. I received news that a group of monsters will attack outside the city gate soon, so I need your help to defend it.”

The City Lord did not know where he got this news from.

However, it was intriguing for him to say such words now.

Chu Bai had never thought that he would be the person he sought help from.

There were clearly more people in this city who could help, so why did they choose him?

“Why did you choose me? After all, there are so many people who can help.”

Chu Bai really couldn’t figure out the situation. No matter how he looked at it, it didn’t seem like it was his turn.

Or rather, he should not be the main force.

“The situation in the city is very complicated now. I can’t explain it in a short time. I keep feeling that someone is causing trouble here, so I need your help now.”

The City Lord seemed to have noticed what had happened in the city recently, which was why he said such words. It seemed that his cooperation with the weapon shop owner had been discovered.

However, this old man had yet to find out who the host behind the scenes was.

However, he wasn’t the mastermind behind this matter. It should be said that the owner of the weapon shop had planned it single-handedly. He was just an actor.

Chu Bai nodded in agreement and turned around to leave. Now, he had to go back and get the money.

The City Lord also nodded in relief.
