Free Web NovelChapter 113: A Skill Even Lucien Coveted
"Alright, enough talk. I will distribute your rewards now. As for whether you want to go to Japan to compete for the National Fate Boss, that is for you to decide."
He first took out two dark gold treasure chests and a Boundary Breaking Talisman and handed them to I Have 28 Centimeters.
I Have 28 Centimeters rubbed his hands together excitedly and repeatedly thanked the City Lord of Qingzhou.
"Thank you, City Lord. Thank you, City Lord."
The sycophantic look on his face made the City Lord of Qingzhou frown slightly.
"This was promised to you, so why are you thanking me?"
Actually, the City Lord of Qingzhou had already noticed this issue.
Today, when he was presenting awards to the top one hundred Chosen Ones participating in this Martial Arts Tournament, for some reason, these people kept thanking him over and over again.
These were rewards they had earned through their own abilities, so there was no need to thank anyone else.
He hadn’t given them any special treatment; everything had been obtained through their own strength and luck.
The City Lord of Qingzhou’s words left I Have 28 Centimeters stunned for a moment.
He scratched his head awkwardly and laughed dryly.
"I was just too excited, City Lord."
The City Lord of Qingzhou merely waved his hand, clearly too lazy to continue speaking about such a trivial matter.
Then, the City Lord of Qingzhou looked at Red Bean Cake, who was standing to the side.
"I specifically selected this skill book from the national treasury for you. I believe you will find it useful."
Lucien looked at that Immortal-grade skill book with some envy.
Passive Skill: Damage Transfer (Immortal Grade).
Damage Transfer: The damage the player receives is borne by all summoned creatures.
This is an Immortal-grade skill?
This is clearly a God-grade skill, isn’t it?
All damage is borne by the summoned creatures; wouldn’t that make the Summoner nearly impossible to kill?
Lucien might not dare to brag about other things, but he had nine dogs and nine Five Elements Zombies.
A total of eighteen summoned creatures, each with over 100,000 HP.
Trying to kill him would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.
If he obtained a few more summoning skills in the future, then as long as his summoned creatures weren’t all dead, he would practically be immortal.
If this were outside, Lucien would definitely kill to snatch it away.
This kind of life-saving skill was simply too rare; naturally, the best outcome would be for him to possess it himself.
Perhaps noticing the undisguised greed in Lucien’s eyes, Red Bean Cake quickly thanked the City Lord of Qingzhou and immediately learned the skill book after receiving it.
Even if Lucien wanted to snatch it now, there was no way to do so anymore.
This time, the City Lord of Qingzhou accepted Red Bean Cake’s thanks as a matter of course.
This was a skill book he had personally selected from the national treasury, most suitable for people with many summoned creatures.
It could greatly increase the survival ability of the Summoner themselves.
Red Bean Cake even gave Lucien a provocative look.
Now that she had obtained this skill book, which was practically God-grade in her eyes, she felt that she was no longer weaker than Lucien.
Even if she still couldn’t defeat him, at the very least, their combat power should now be on roughly the same level.
The City Lord of Yizhou and the City Lord of Qingzhou exchanged a glance.
The two silently nodded.
After being reminded by the Liangzhou City Lord and through their own observations, they already understood the reason behind Lucien’s greedy gaze.
But fortunately, this kid still knew his limits and had not been too deeply affected, so he didn’t dare to act recklessly in front of the two of them.
The City Lord of Qingzhou smiled faintly and said,
"Alright, stop envying other people’s skill books. There is one more copy of this skill book; I will give it to you as well."
After all, the main force in taking down that National Fate Boss this time would still be Falling into the Human World standing before him.
Naturally, he had to provide him with a few more life-saving methods.
If Lucien died, then the chances of successfully obtaining the National Fate Boss would be greatly reduced.
"Ding, congratulations on obtaining the skill book: Damage Transfer (Immortal Grade)."
Upon receiving the skill book, Lucien did not hesitate at all and immediately learned it.
"Ding, congratulations on learning the new skill: Damage Transfer (Immortal Grade)."
The moment the skill book disappeared into a stream of light, Lucien could clearly feel a strange connection forming between himself and his summons.
It was as if their lives had become linked together.
Seeing that Lucien had also obtained the Damage Transfer skill book, the fighting spirit that had just filled Red Bean Cake’s eyes dimmed once again.
Actually, Red Bean Cake was completely overthinking things.
Although her strength had indeed improved tremendously because of Damage Transfer, to Lucien, it was merely decent.
With only a few skills from him, the HP of both her and all her summoned creatures could still be depleted directly.
After all, Lucien’s attack power was currently far too terrifying, especially with the addition of his SSS-rank Talent, Nine-Fold Spell Casting.
However, the City Lord of Qingzhou then took out a jade pendant.
"This jade pendant was also specially selected from the national treasury for you. I hope it will be of some help."
"Ding, congratulations on obtaining the Clear Heart and Few Desires Jade Pendant (Immortal Grade)."
Clear Heart and Few Desires Jade Pendant (Immortal Grade)
Category: Treasure
Level: 30
All Attributes +100
Special Attribute 1: Ensures the user’s mind always remains clear.
Special Attribute 2: While in the state of Primordial Yang Body, recovers 1000 mana per minute.
(Takes effect upon being placed in the inventory.)
Description: A newly crafted jade pendant that is extremely useful for certain individuals.
Looking at this jade pendant, Lucien’s first reaction was disdain.
This was at least an Immortal-grade treasure, yet it only added 100 to all attributes?
Moreover, treasures like this could not be reinforced.
As for those two special effects, Lucien felt they were completely useless to him.
Especially the first effect; when had his mind ever been unclear?
The second effect was even more ridiculous. He could already naturally recover 1000 mana per minute.
And it even required maintaining a Primordial Yang Body.
Wasn’t that just another way of saying he had to remain a virgin?
What kind of joke was this?
Could he really remain a virgin for his entire life?
Who exactly were they looking down on?
Although, when he thought about it carefully, he had indeed been a virgin for two lifetimes already, but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t be able to find someone in the future.
Despite his inner disdain, Lucien still accepted the Clear Heart and Few Desires Jade Pendant.
The moment he held the jade pendant, he immediately felt a cool sensation spread through his mind.
Even the slight irritability he had been feeling after the Martial Arts Tournament seemed to calm down a little.
Other than that, there weren’t any major changes; only his attributes had increased slightly.
Sigh, he would just treat this trip as obtaining the Damage Transfer skill book.
"Ding, congratulations on obtaining one Boundary Breaking Talisman!"
There was nothing particularly special about the Boundary Breaking Talisman.
He had already obtained one previously. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
It was just that he still hadn’t found the time to use it.
Still, this kind of item was extremely valuable.
It could allow players to enter special hidden regions or break through certain restricted areas.
Many players wouldn’t necessarily encounter one even after playing for several years.
"Alright, if you want to compete for the National Fate Boss, it’s best to head to Japan within the next few days."
"However, I still hope that the three of you can form a team and go together. That way, the chances of successfully taking down the National Fate Boss will be much higher."
After distributing the rewards, the three of them left the Yizhou City Lord’s Mansion together.
Just after stepping out of the City Lord’s Mansion, I Have 28 Centimeters immediately scurried over to Lucien.
"Great God, let’s add each other as friends. Maybe we can look out for each other in Japan later. I actually know Japanese!"
Lucien glanced at I Have 28 Centimeters, thought about it for a moment, and then slowly nodded.
He was unfamiliar with Japan, so having someone around who knew the language could indeed save him a lot of trouble.
Moreover, he had heard that no one had managed to clear the Hell Mode difficulty of Japan’s level 30-40 dungeons yet.
He planned to see whether he could grab some additional rewards there as well.
After all, every first clear of Hell Mode granted bonus attribute points.
"Alright, just add me directly."
I Have 28 Centimeters instantly revealed an excited expression, as if he had successfully latched onto a huge thigh.
After adding him as a friend, Lucien didn’t even spare Red Bean Cake a glance before turning around and leaving directly.
Now, whenever Lucien saw Red Bean Cake, he felt annoyed.
During the Martial Arts Tournament, she had actually surrendered in such an unsportsmanlike manner. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
It left him feeling extremely frustrated, with nowhere to vent his anger.
