The place he appeared at was the Heavenly Ice Plains.
[Ding. Congratulations, you've received the ultimate skill, Falling Rock.]
It was a trashy ultimate move.
Chu Bai did not take it to heart.
!!
However, if he succeeded, he probably would not be able to farm any more monsters for the rest of the day.
"What?"
Chu Bai took a look at his attributes and suddenly realized that they had increased by so much.
[Character: Bai Ye]
[Level: 27]
[Constitution: Ice God Body]
[Title: Son of Destiny, Merica Nation's Best Friend]
[Hunger: 61]
[Reputation: 711,000]
[Luck: max; Charm: 90; Comprehension: 40]
[Four main attributes: physique: 80; spirit:110; strength: 245; agility:80]
[HP: 2,780]
[MP: 2,660]
[ATK: 930]
[Magic attack: 420]
[Defense: 156]
[Movement speed: 424]
[Fire resistance: 100%]
His Gluttony Armor and Beast King's Skyfire Pants were both destroyed!
In the end, he lost 1,400 HP and 160 defense.
Logically speaking, he should only have 1,780 HP left.
Why was it 2,780?
His HP and MP had increased by 1,000, his attack power and magic attack power had increased by 100, and what was even more outrageous was that his comprehension of the three fixed attributes had increased by 50!
Moreover, there were ten attribute points that could be freely allocated.
"Could it be Bing Xian'er?"
Chu Bai thought of this possibility.
This was the only possibility!
Even though his HP was lower than before, once he equipped his equipment, his HP would increase by at least 1,000. His HP would probably exceed 4,000!
He had quite a bit of equipment on him. Chu Bai equipped the dark demon weapon, Demonic Dragon Wicked Armor, that he had obtained after killing the Three-Headed Demon Dragon Emperor. Then, he casually equipped a pair of gold-grade battle pants.
His HP immediately rose to 3,980, and his defense returned to 300.
When he had the Gluttony Armor and the Beast King's Skyfire Pants, his HP was 3,180 and his defense was 316.
It was a little weaker now, but it was his equipment's attributes that were weak, not Chu Bai himself!
His base HP had increased by 1,000!
He added the attribute to his attack, and his attack reached 950.
"What?"
He saw that there was an additional constitution in his attributes.
Ice God Body!
[Ice God Body: one of the ancient divine bodies. It's an absolute divine body of the ice attribute. It has extreme affinity and control over ice. Effect: doubles ice attribute attack damage. Additional effect: ready to open.]
"Ice God Body… So, this is why water turns into ice when I take a bath in reality?"
Ice God Body's current effect only doubled ice attribute damage. It did not seem to be of much use to him, but it seemed to have other effects.
This constitution did not increase his attributes, so the additional attributes were not due to the Ice God Body…
He could not think of what it could be.
Then, Chu Bai crushed the return scroll and disappeared.
When he reappeared, he was at the resurrection point of Tianhua City.
After that, Chu Bai walked toward the city lord's mansion in the dark!
Even though it was already late at night, the number of players in the city did not decrease.
Some of the players were too tired, but some of them were only active at night.
…
The city lord's mansion.
The two Gold Guards were still standing guard there.
...
"I'm looking for the city lord."
"The city lord has instructed that if you came, you can go in directly. Please."
"Many thanks."
Chu Bai then walked in.
Although it was late at night, the city lord was not asleep. He was sitting in his study and reading some books.
Chu Bai walked in.
"Bai Ye! Please have a seat."
The city lord looked at Chu Bai and smiled.
Naturally, someone had informed him that Chu Bai was here.
"Many thanks, City Lord."
City Lord Zhao Tianjun then poured a cup of tea for Chu Bai. As he poured, he said, "You're here to talk about the Dragon-Sealing Well, right?"
...
Chu Bai nodded. "Yes!"
"Yes, I heard some news about that place today. It seems that a group of people suddenly appeared and sealed the Dragon-Sealing Well. Then, they quickly left. What exactly happened?"
He placed the cup of tea in front of Chu Bai and asked.
"The people inside are from the Blood Emperor Palace. People have been hearing the roars of a dragon because there's a Dark Evil Dragon inside," Chu Bai said.
"The Blood Emperor Palace… No wonder so many powerful people have entered that place and failed to come out alive."
City Lord Zhao Tianjun lowered his head and muttered to himself. Then, he raised his head and looked at Chu Bai.
"What were they doing there?"
"The people from the Blood Emperor Palace are conducting experiments in secret. They've raised bloodthirsty beasts, which are very terrifying and fierce. It seems that they want to turn people into those monsters," Chu Bai said.
"I see! The Blood Emperor Palace is still doing such evil things. It's simply unforgivable by the heavens!" the city lord angrily rebuked.
Then, he asked Chu Bai, "Then the situation inside…"
"The people from the Blood Emperor Palace are all dead," Chu Bai said. "The Dark Evil Dragon is dead too. The Dragon-Sealing Well is probably a thing of the past now."
The city lord nodded. "That's good. Otherwise, it's really hard to be at ease with the Blood Emperor Palace's base around here. There shouldn't be any problems here now. Bai Ye, thank you very much!"
Chu Bai shook his head. "I just did what I should've."
[Ding. Congratulations on completing the mission Dragon-Sealing Well.]
Then, the city lord turned to Chu Bai. "I promised you before that if you could complete the exploration of the Dragon-Sealing Well, I would fulfill one of your wishes within my power. Have you thought about it?"
Chu Bai nodded. "Yes. I do have something to trouble you with."
"Just say it."
"I have a friend who wants to open an auction house," Chu Bai said. "But the suitable locations in Tianhua City are either too small or they've already been rented by others."
"I understand. Which shop have you guys taken a liking to?"
"The big shop in the center of Tianhua City," Chu Bai said.
"You guys have pretty sharp eyes."
The city lord smiled.
Chu Bai also smiled and did not say anything.
"No problem. I'll let you use that shop for free for three years. However, the ownership of the shop belongs to the empire. As the city lord, I only have a short period of control. I'd give it to you if it were possible, but I really can't."
Three years was enough!
"Many thanks, City Lord! Three years is more than enough for us!"
"Yes, this is the title deed for that shop." The city lord handed Chu Bai a title deed, then said, "Give the title deed to whoever wants to use the shop and let them sign their name."
"Many thanks, City Lord!"
"It's my duty. In the future, if there's anything that I need your help with, I hope you'll offer a lending hand."
"I will."
…
Then, Chu Bai left the city lord's residence.
Jiang Qianyue was already online. She was waiting for Chu Bai's news.
She was very excited.
If Chu Bai could really get that shop, it would be like adding wings to a tiger!
She then received a message from Chu Bai.
Jiang Qianyue opened up the friends' dialog box.
[Sister Qianyue, where are you? We've got the shop for three years.]
