Table of Content | Character Guide

Opening his eyes again, Tang Cuo found himself back at the room on East Cross Street, with his Character panel hanging in front of him.

[Character]

No. K27216: Tang Cuo

Character score: 18

Strength: -8

Intelligence: 0

Charm: 0

Rating: A-

HP: 16

Li Ying Juns Curse: Defence against fire is reduced by 80.

[Survival is not easy, please never stop trying.]

Tang Cuo saw the description of the curse and didnt care much. He immediately added 8 character points to his Strength to clear the negative score, but didnt touch the remaining 10 points.

As the negative score was cleared, Tang Cuos Rating immediately changed from A- to A.

As he switched to the Skills panel, three small squares with item icons on them immediately popped out, which seemed to be the personal rewards the system mentioned earlier. Tang Cuo fixed his gaze on one of the squares and the item information appeared right below.

[Black Bears Fang]

Classification: Material

Quality: Common

The [Black Bears Fang] was actually brought out of the dungeon by Tang Cuo. Perhaps it could be used as materials to make equipment, or to make medicine?

Tang Cuo thought about it for a bit, then looked at the other two grids. The ones in these two grids were not items, but skill scrolls.

[Sprint]

Classification: Skill

Quality: Common

Description: Running speed is increased by 20.

[Fireball]

Classification: Skill

Quality: Garbage

Description: Fireballs with a radius of 2.5 centimeters are launched at a rate of one every two seconds for ten seconds.

Tang Cuo was speechless.

Wasnt this Fireball skill deliberately put here by the system? Giving him the ability to launch five small fireballs in ten seconds like a PeashooterA plant in the casual shooting game Plants Vs Zombie which has the ability to shoot peas at zombies.

must be to mock him for using this Fireball skill during the dungeon. On the other hand, the Sprint skill, though common as it was, looked like it could save lives at a critical moment.

Tang Cuo reached out his hand without hesitation and the two skill scrolls turned into two streams of light and entered his body.

He looked at the system panel again and there was already a Sprint icon and a Fireball icon under [Skills]. At the same time, Tang Cuo found that a Material Box had appeared below the stand-alone Inventory Bar, also with ten slots.

There was only one Survival Assessment Report in the Inventory Bar.

There was only one [Black Bears Fang] in the Material Box.

Knock, knock. Someone was at the door.

Tang Cuo knew who it was without even thinking, so he didnt plan to open the door. In a flash, he slipped out of the broken window and reached the street downstairs. He had no idea where to go, so he didnt walk fast and just wandered around aimlessly.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

The breakfast place was still open with the one-eyed lady boss napping inside. Tang Cuo looked at his empty wallet in humiliation, but he remembered that points could be exchanged for money, so he planned to first exchange 1 million RMB to spend.

But where can I go for exchange?

Their eyes met and Tang Cuo didnt try to avoid the gaze, but his expression was cold.

Jin Cheng smiled, turned around and walked into the tavern.

The drunk guests were still arguing, their voices hoarse and their saliva flying everywhere. The quarrel gradually escalated into a brawl. A wine bottle was slammed down yet no ones head was cracked, rather, a table ended up split in half.

Jin Cheng tilted his head to avoid a flying shard of the broken bottle, but he ignored the chaos and headed straight for his target. He grabbed Wen Xiaoming by the back of his collar and lifted him up.

Wen Xiaoming turned completely white: Boss, boss, what are you doing?

Jin Cheng said irritably: Youve taken my place.

You never warned me! Wen Xiaoming quickly pulled out a chair for Jin Cheng and asked him to sit down, looking all respectful and courteous, then he moved his own chair away, looking all lovely and sweet.

Jin Cheng still stared at him.

Wen Xiaoming blinked.

A few seconds passed by in utter silence.

Wen Xiaoming asked hesitantly: I should I go under the table?

Jin Cheng folded his arms: Why dont you go straight to Heaven?

Wen Xiaoming scratched his head and smiled earnestly. Nope, you cant be like that. Jin Cheng thought Wen Xiaoming looked somewhat like Li Ying Jun, so he chased the poor fella away to fetch more liquor to get rid of this annoyance.

Opposite him, Tang Cuos expression remained icy cold, as if he had been kept frozen in a cold room, or perhaps he hadnt recovered from the frosty blizzard in the dungeon.

Youve recognised me? Jin Cheng asked.

Is it so difficult to guess? Tang Cuo asked back.

Then why didnt you expose me in the dungeon, but avoid me when were back in Yong Ye City?

Do you have a problem with that?

The showdown was finally here.

This was the scene Wen Xiaoming saw when he came back: The two persons were leaning on the chairs armrest, their arms folded and their legs crossed, one with indifferent eyes and the other with a delightful smile, their aura enormously overwhelming.

For a split second, Wen Xiaoming suddenly felt that these two persons were very much alike.

Jin Cheng: Youre still so not cute. There were even naughtier kids back then, but you were the only one who never complied with me.

Tang Cuo declined to comment.

Jin Cheng delightfully looked at the stern face that had vaguely tensed up, then he raised one hand to take off the mask. Below the mask was a captivating face with eyebrows as sharp as knives and features more exquisite than a movie star.

As long as youve seen this face, you would never forget it. But there was also a 3-centimeter-long scar on his right cheek, which unavoidably added a tinge of ruggedness and wildness to him.

Its been a few years and you wont even greet your military instructor? Jin Cheng smiled lightly, but his manner felt extraordinarily imposing.

Tang Cuo narrowed his eyes, but still didnt answer.

Wen Xiaoming was surprised by these words, Instructor? What instructor? He knew a little about the boss past, which made him even more curious, so he couldnt help but ask: What is your relationship in the end?

Tang Cuo: We spent some time at the grave together sort of relationship.

Wen Xiaoming: What? What together? In bed together sort of relationship?!

Because he was so shocked, Wen Xiaomings voice was raised incredulously high. Everyone in the tavern heard his words and looked over.

The drinkers stopped drinking and the fighters stopped fighting. All eyes followed Wen Xiaomings gaze to look at Jin Cheng and Tang Cuo, and they were all shaken to the core even in Yong Ye City, things like this didnt come by often!

Tang Cuos face turned black.

Jin Cheng couldnt help but laugh. He turned to look at Wen Xiaoming and really wanted to applaud him. Why didnt he know that Wen Xiaomings usually defunct ears could be so superb?

Come here. Tang Cuo looked at Wen Xiaoming.

You, what do you want to do? Wen Xiaoming knew he was in the wrong, but he didnt mean it. As soon as he heard together, he subconsciously thought of that thing, and he also had an unmendable issue of his mouth operating faster than his brain.

He blinked, pretentiously trying to be all adorable to get away with his crime.

Tang Cuo of course didnt buy it one bit and said

Come here, Ill kill you.
