Chapter 21 Extorting the Water Demon King,【Bright Sea Robe(Silver)】



Hearing the quest notification, Su Ming smiled.



As a reincarnator, he knew one thing very well.



『The Wrath of Water Demon』mission was a sinkhole. No rewards will be given for the completion of the quest!



Ziles’ intention was to borrow the hands of players to incite a chaos within the Siren Kingdom in order to weaken the seal on his body and complete the resurrection ceremony.



Besides, why would the sirens attack the water demons?



The reason was simple. The water demons hated their own bloodline, and greeded for the siren’s bloodline, secretly hunting the sirens, eventually leading to their own demise.



This disaster was invited by themselves!



“I refuse.”



Su Ming immediately replied.



“Adventurer, as long as you complete the task,” he said unwillingly: “I can give you a generous reward. For example, the water demon has accumulated a thousand years of treasure, all of these would be yours!”



Seeing how anxious he was, Su Ming had a bold idea in his heart.



“I can’ t believe your so-called reward unless you can give me real benefits.”



Su Ming had an expression of a fox.



”Greedy human!’



Ziles was slightly angry, but he felt that Su Ming could be easily manipulated this way.



After making his decision, he waved his hand and a skill book appeared on the throne.



“This skill book is my reward in advance.”



Su Ming’s eyes lit up.



He had merely wanted to test Ziles, and did not expect to actually receive something.



Who would have thought that Ziles would really give him a reward.



『Lightning Surge(Silver)』



Although this skill book was only a Silver grade, Su Ming did not dislike this at all.



Can any free loot be unpleasant?



Seeing Su Ming’s happy expression, Ziles felt even more disdainful. If he wasn’t incapable of escaping from the seal by himself, he wouldn’t have asked such a person to help.



“Human, are you willing to accept the quest now?”



In any case, Ziles would definitely die soon anyways.



He shook his head and replied, “It’s not enough. It’s just a mage’s skill book. It’s not worth risking my life.”



“Enough, human, you better be content! You can’t bear the consequences of provoking me!”



Ziles was furious.



“Sigh.” Su Ming was helpless.



“Look, I’m so weak right now, even if I were to accept the mission…” he continued, “Let’s not talk about destroying the Siren Kingdom. I’m afraid that I won’t be able to reach their Kingdom and would have already been killed by the sea monsters along the way.”



Hearing Su Ming’s reasonable response, Ziles’ anger slightly subsided.



“The stronger I am, the easier it will be to complete the mission. What’s more, would the reward I need be even useful to you?”



This……



Ziles thought about it and felt that it was right.



For example, he couldn’t use the Lightning Surge Skill Book. The skill book would just collect dust in the treasury.



“I’ll trust you again for now. Human, speak up your request.”



Su Ming secretly laughed in his heart and hurriedly said, “I need two priest’s equipment.”



“No, I can only give you one.”



Ziles immediately rejected the request.



“Okay.”



Su Minggan quickly agreed.



This kind of reaction caused Ziles to sense something was wrong.



He gritted his teeth and took out the Priest equipment.



As for whether Su Ming’s class was priest or not, Ziles did not care. Being able to pass the test he had set and arriving before him was enough to show that the adventurer in front of him was extraordinary.



Su Ming looked at the equipment.

Skill reflection, strong equipment!



Su Ming was slightly delighted when he saw the effect of the skill.



He equipped the bright sea robe, and his magic attack reached 305.



“Human, I’ll leave the task of destroying the Siren Kingdom to you.” Ziles coldly said.



Su Ming looked at him with pity.



He shook his head and said, “Sorry, your task has nothing to do with me.”



Seeing Su Ming’s eyes, Ziles understood.



“Damned human!!!”



“How dare you lie to the great Water Demon King?” He screamed: “I will imprison your soul and keep you in fear for eternity!”



“Bang!!!”



A gray aura surged out, enveloping Ziles’ body. In the next moment, he turned into a humanoid monster, completely losing all rationality.

The Nightmare difficulty had greatly empowered the Boss’s strength.



Its combinations of four different skills were extremely difficult to deal with.



Su Ming took out his staff and began fighting.



『Arrow of Light!』



The bright light illuminated the surrounding darkness, and the light arrow pierced at the neck of Ziles, causing wisps of black smoke to appear.



-595!



Ziles’ magic defense was very high, but because his attribute was of the dark element, he had taken double damage from the Arrow of Light’s attribute.



Even if he were to use a healing skill on the Boss, it would still take damage.
