Chapter 22 Li Cheng acquires new abstract abilities

"I almost thought you had forgotten about this, hehe." Lilith shook her head proudly: "Yes, you are level 20 now. I can give you skills and equipment. You can still choose one out of three."

"Well, it should be a heavy greatsword, a fire-making ring, and a disposable crab pot. Which one do you want?"

"I don't want any of them." Li Cheng shook his head: "Do you have any more of those rubbish? Like the blessing of life."

"You still want those rubbish skills?" Lilith pouted her lips into an O shape. "Are you sure you want that kind of stuff? You performed so well before, I can actually give you a better reward."

"You said you want to replace the reward? What do you mean?" Deathly aura came out of Li Cheng's body again, and his voice became colder and colder.

"Stop, stop, stop. I'm not questioning your judgment!" Lilith had been with Li Cheng for two days and already knew that he had unusual persistence in certain aspects. She quickly said:
"I said the wrong thing. Okay, okay, I'll just rummage through the garbage for you. Is that okay?"

"I really don't understand you. You have to use these rubbish instead of those high-level abilities."

As she spoke, Lilith stuck out her tongue and rummaged through her pockets. After a short while, she took out three magic books.

[I have no opinion (garbage): You are the ancient Greek god in charge of vehicles. When someone asks you a question and you answer that you have no opinion, the vehicle you are riding will explode directly.]

[I bet there are no bullets in your xx (garbage): When you say something like this to the target, the thing he is firing will be forced to misfire, but the bullet will be retained. It can only be used once an hour. ]

[Hunting, Snail: You can summon a snail that will continue to chase you anywhere within a radius of 5 meters. The snail's attack power is the same as that of an ordinary snail. It exists for minutes and can only be used once an hour. ]

Li Cheng looked at the new magic book and frowned.

It’s worth mentioning that these three new abilities are also beta capabilities.

But its function is quite consistent with the positioning of garbage skills.

The first ability is comparable to the skill of self-destruction. If used well, it can drag the enemy into the explosion and gamble on who can survive. However, Li Cheng has never liked to gamble on his luck.

The second skill looks very powerful, especially with so many mages in this game, this ability could be of great use, but he can only use it once an hour, which makes it a bit useless.

And the third option, an ordinary snail that chases itself...

This skill is purely abstract and not even remotely useful.

"I told you not to dwell on these rubbish skills!" Lilith crossed her arms and scolded, "Yes, I admit that your brain is more flexible than that of ordinary people, but that has to be based on the premise that these abilities are useful, right?"

"Look now, which of these three skills is useful?"

Listening to Lilith's words, Li Cheng surprisingly did not retort, but just held his chin up, thinking.

Lilith's eyes rolled around.

Li Cheng is helpless?
Hahaha, this is the best chance to restore my dignity!
"Li Cheng, even if it's you, you can't use these three abilities." Lilith snorted coldly, put her hands on her hips, and started her facial expression again:
"Well, as long as you are willing to call me the most beautiful, kind and lovely Goddess Lilith, there is no better goddess in the world than you."

"I'll give you the reward in exchange, how about that?"

Li Cheng glanced at her and said, "Do you really think there is no useful ability here?"

"what?"

Lilith was stunned. Could it be that there was something I didn't notice?

She looked at Li Cheng's determined face, holding her head and thinking for a long time.

That’s right, these three abilities are indeed rubbish. Although they cannot be said to be completely useless, they can be said to be completely useless.

It is obvious that Li Cheng is just holding on to save his face.

Thinking of this, she shook her head and smiled playfully.

This Li Cheng is really a man of character, the toughest part of his body is his mouth.

"It seems that you really can't think of it. Well, it's too difficult for you to make a system keep up with the players' thinking." Li Cheng spread his hands.

Lilith:? ? ?

"Okay, I'll choose this one." In Lilith's confused eyes, Li Cheng grabbed the book "Hunter, Snail"

“Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?” Lilith was immediately anxious: “If you take it away, you can’t exchange it for rewards! Ahhh, I can’t avoid this rule!”

"I don't plan to change it." Li Cheng pulled his hand out.

"You, you, don't regret it!" Lilith glared at him dissatisfiedly.

To be honest, she no longer has the arrogance to prove herself that she had at the beginning, and she wants to help Li Cheng more.

But seeing Li Cheng's stubborn look, she couldn't help but feel angry.

Patting her chest again, Lilith finally felt a little calmer and revealed a gloating smile.

A blessing in disguise. Anyway, this is a level 20 reward, not too important, so let him be stubborn for once.

Li Cheng is so smart. After suffering this loss, he will be able to recognize the current situation and will not be interested in garbage skills anymore!
What Lilith didn't notice was that Li Cheng's face was filled with a happy smile at this moment.

People who are familiar with Li Cheng know that he will only smile like this when he discovers a new school of thought.

That’s right, if you just look at [Hunting, Snail], it is indeed a completely meaningless ability.

But that's for ordinary players.

In Li Cheng's opinion, there are no rubbish abilities in this world, only rubbish people.

He has already figured out how to use this ability.

No, to be precise, this ability will change his current way of fighting, make up for his greatest weakness, and allow him to complete the task of the next dragon lady 100%.

This is a great school that can be compared to the crooked-mouthed magic school!

Storm King City.

This city is only a dozen kilometers away from the witch prison of the Abyss Eye Witch.

It is also the largest city in the southern part of Tianming Continent.

Its importance is even no less than that of the Moonlight Old Capital where the Full Moon Academy is located.

Prosperous, stable and majestic.

This is the first impression of the city for all travelers who arrive in Storm King City.

It is hard to imagine that the Witch of Abyss Eye, one of the witches hated by everyone in the Destiny Continent, would build her nest around such a majestic city.

As for the reason why the Abyss Eye Witch did this, it is actually very simple.

The real owner of Storm King City - Queen Liuli from Hurricane, is not only a dragon cursed by Slaanesh, but also a good friend of the Abyss-Eye Witch.

Every day in Storm King City is full of vitality and hope.

Today, in the Colosseum in the center of the city, in the underground casino that was always in a mess and filled with all kinds of dirty words and the smell of alcohol, a hooded man walked in.

His arrival did not cause any splash.

The gamblers in the casino, or the gangsters, just glanced at him and then looked away.

This is the Storm King City Arena.

It is the Night City where everyone who wants to get rich overnight chases their dreams.

The upper-class gladiators raised their swords again and again in order to get the high bonuses.

And the lower-level gamblers, like them, push down their chips again and again.

Win, take it all, lose, lose everything.

This is the rule of Night City, whether it is the upper class or the lower class, it is the same.

Every day familiar people die, and every day new faces appear.

Life is the cheapest thing here.

The hooded man was oblivious to everything around him. He strode quickly to the front of the counter as if he was in a hurry and pointed his finger at a portrait on the wall.

"I bet he'll win ten straight."

"Okay." The receptionist with rabbit ears smiled and said, "New Duelist Li Cheng, ten consecutive wins, right?"

"Yes."

"How much do you want to press?"

The hooded man said nothing, but took out a pocket and poured out all the magic emblem stones inside.

"1, 2, 10, 30... 43 Huishi!" The bunny girl suddenly raised her voice: "Guest, are you sure you want to bet so much?"

And this messy casino became silent at this moment.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the hooded man, and even the sound of his breathing seemed to disappear.

Only the bunny girl waiter's trembling voice was clear: "40 emblem stones can be exchanged for more than gold coins... I can't make the decision on such a large amount. I have to ask the supervisor to come over."

"No need to bother." Li Cheng said softly from under his hood, "I'm in a hurry."
