90: Green Poison Ring

A blush appeared on Xu Chuchu's face as she experienced the slightly intimate contact.

Before she could feel shy for more than a few seconds, Li Changkong, who had been holding her tightly, let go of her with one hand.

This caused Xu Chuchu to shriek, lose her balance, and fall to the ground.

"Oh my god!"

Xu Chuchu shrieked.

Li Changkong suddenly reacted at this moment, turning his head to look at Xu Chuchu behind him, a hint of apology on his face.

The Two-Headed Demon Snake attacked once more, and Li Changkong had no time to warn Xu Chuchu.

Just as the Two-Headed Demon Snake's health dropped to half, its two heads began to gradually fuse.

Seeing this, Li Changkong knew it was about to enter its second phase.

A low growl emanated from their mouths, and in the next second, the Two-Headed Demon Snake went berserk.

A strange red light glowed from its body, and it actually began to engage Li Changkong in close combat.

As Li Changkong waved his hand, a summoning Spell formation appeared.

A terrifying Black Dragon, five meters tall, had already appeared before the Two-Headed Demon Snake.

After the previous devouring, Black Flame had finally awakened.

And his strength had also terrifyingly increased; he was now at the mature stage of Physique.

After entering the mature stage, his body not only grew by nearly half, but his strength also doubled.

Originally, Little Zi's strength surpassed Black Flame's, but now he was once again behind Black Flame.

At this moment, Black Rock did not hesitate, immediately blocking Li Changkong.

His massive body was not much smaller than the Two-Headed Demon Snake in front of him.

With him blocking the way, the Two-Headed Demon Snake couldn't even get close to Li Changkong.

Li Changkong had originally thought of switching to close combat once the Two-Headed Demon Snake charged over, but now it seemed completely unnecessary.

From the Dark Moon Staff, Spells were continuously unleashed.

Even though this Two-Headed Demon Snake was a Gold-Rank boss, it simply couldn't withstand these terrifying attacks.

After a fierce battle lasting almost the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the Two-Headed Demon Snake finally collapsed powerlessly onto the ground.

And after falling, several pieces of equipment appeared on its massive body.

Among them were several Blue and Purple-Rank pieces of equipment, as well as one Gold-Rank piece of equipment.

Li Changkong was no longer interested in Purple-Rank equipment; what he was interested in this time was the Gold-Rank equipment.

The Gold-Rank equipment dropped by the Rank 35 Two-Headed Demon Snake was also Rank 30.

Although many stores also sold Gold-Rank equipment, the Gold-Rank equipment available for sale was definitely not the best of its kind.

Even some incomplete items were priceless.

However, Li Changkong was not short on money now; he naturally didn't take this Gold-Rank equipment to sell it.

[Name: Green Poison Ring (Gold-Rank Equipment)]

[Rank: 30]

[Attributes: Spirit +80, causes certain poison damage to enemies.]

After looking at this ring, Li Changkong felt it was quite good.

A person can have a maximum of three rings active, so Li Changkong put away the Blue-Rank ring he had previously obtained.

"It's okay if I take this Gold-Rank ring, right?"

Li Changkong looked at the others and asked softly.

If it hadn't been for Li Changkong just now, they might have been in big trouble.

So, they agreed to Li Changkong's request without hesitation.

Although they were indeed very envious of the Gold-Rank ring, it wasn't that easy to obtain.

The strength Li Changkong displayed just now had actually exceeded everyone's imagination.

Even Xu Chuchu hadn't expected Li Changkong's strength to increase to such a terrifying degree in such a short period of time.

Moreover, the combat skills and experience he displayed during the battle had improved by a whole level compared to their last meeting.

Although Li Changkong did not display his close-combat skills this time, the ranged skills he did show were enough to astound people.

Ma He, who had been talkative before, was also subdued by Li Changkong's strength and completely quieted down.

He hadn't expected a newcomer he looked down upon to be so terrifyingly strong.

"Ding, congratulations to the team for successfully completing the first clear of the Rank 30 dungeon, gaining Rank +1 as a reward."

After receiving the reward, Li Changkong's Rank successfully reached Rank 35.

According to the average Rank in the school, even fourth-year students had an average Rank of around Rank 33.

Li Changkong was only a first-year, but his Rank had already reached Rank 33, which was truly terrifying.

After leaving the dungeon, Li Changkong didn't rush to leave but instead chatted with Xu Chuchu.

Upon learning that Li Changkong was about to go to Changtian City, Xu Chuchu was also surprised.

She immediately said, "Changtian City seems to be a bit restless lately. Are you sure you want to go there?"

"Restless?"

Li Changkong couldn't help but be curious when he heard this.

"Changtian City doesn't have too large a population, but the number of monsters there is terrifying."

"Recently, the monsters there have been acting up severely, even attacking Changtian City several times, so many people are fleeing Changtian City."

As she spoke, Xu Chuchu also pulled out her optical computer and placed it in front of Li Changkong.

There were indeed many news articles on it, and most of them were negative news about Changtian City.

"Most of those fleeing are Professionals. If they leave, what will happen to the ordinary people?"

After reading the news, Li Changkong frowned slightly.

"In this world, the one thing we're not short of is ordinary people."

"After the Professionals flee, those ordinary people will just have to fend for themselves."

Xu Chuchu just gave a bitter smile when she heard Li Changkong's words.

As time passed, humanity was actually divided into two factions.

One believed that the Professional's duty was to protect ordinary people, so they would often sacrifice themselves for ordinary people.

Many Professionals in the military held this belief, mainly because many of them came from ordinary families.

The other believed that ordinary people were born to serve them, the Professionals, and they even regarded those ordinary people as slaves.

Li Changkong opened his mouth, as if wanting to say something, but ultimately didn't speak.

"No choice, there's a very urgent matter this time. If I don't go, there will likely be big trouble."

Even though he knew Changtian City was very dangerous, Li Changkong had no other choice.

Even if entering Changtian City truly meant a narrow escape from death, it was better than staying in the city and facing certain death.

"Alright then, be careful on your journey."

After a few more pleasantries, the two then parted ways.
