Chapter 16: Dream Key

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The 29 waves of enemies in front of him brought Chu Qi nearly 100 attribute points and three new skills: [Shattering], [Precision], and [Thick Skin].

[Thick Skin]

Skill Description: Can block 320 points of damage.

The skill wasn’t very strong, but it was better than nothing.

The black mist surged again and gradually contracted, turning into a huge monster without a physical body. This was the last wave of enemies.

Mist Demon (Bronze)

Level: 15

Health: 600,000

Damage: 4000

Technique: Illusion, Dream Claw, Corrosive Gas, Berserk

[Illusion]: Immune to all physical damage..

As soon as he appeared, the skeleton archer shot out three arrows.

-2981

After being immune to physical damage, his summoned creature suffered half the damage.

And with the help of the [Dream Claw], the damage of the Mist Demon could take away half of Chu Qi’s health every time it attacked.

Dream Claw

Skill Description: 100% of the attack damage is converted to true damage.

Chu Qi continuously dodged and retreated under the attack of the Mist Demon. The attack range of the Mist Demon was huge, and it was extremely difficult to dodge.

With just two claw attacks, it directly shattered Chu Qi’s skeleton warrior.

Chu Qi had never encountered such an enemy before. He was momentarily overwhelmed.

He could only rely on his many years of gaming experience to stay alive and reduce the HP of the Mist Demon.

The Mist Demon was continuously harassed by Chu Qi and quickly couldn’t take it anymore. The fog in its body spread out.

The surrounding buildings were being melted by the mist.

This was the [Corrosive Gas]!

The moment the mist touched Chu Qi, it crawled all over his body like a bug.

The continuous damage forced Chu Qi into a dangerous situation. Chu Qi immediately activated [Vanishing Step].

His body shape became transparent, and his speed increased by a lot. Chu Qi retreated while drinking two bottles of potions. His blood line recovered to health value.

However, the mist on his body didn’t fall off. It was still corroding Chu Qi.

Chu Qi didn’t have time to continue attacking. He summoned the skeleton warriors again to block the attacks of the Mist Demon while he continued to drink medicine at the side.

The corrosive gas lasted for 30 seconds before it ended.

At this time, there was no more medicine in Chu Qi’s bag. In other words, if he was touched by this mist again, he would be corroded to death.

Chu Qi’s concentration was stretched to the limit. He was incomparably serious as he moved every time to dodge.

The HP of the Mist Demon gradually decreased under Chu Qi’s constant control.

450,000!

300,000!

100,000!

50,000… ”

Seeing that his HP was decreasing, the Mist Demon let out a low and hoarse roar. Gnolls kept crawling out of the fog around him to harass Chu Qi.

The HP of the Mist Demon also began to recover continuously. In just a while, it had already recovered almost 5% of its HP.

Chu Qi realized that he couldn’t let the demon have time to rest. He raised his hand and a dark mark hit the demons’ faces.

The Mist Demon that had its recovery interrupted let out an angry roar, and its red eyes stared fixedly at Chu Qi.

The fast and fierce claw attack instantly approached Chu Qi’s face.

The huge wind pressure forced Chu Qi to keep his eyes shut as his body flew backwards and slammed into the wall of the house.

Chu Qi’s health points instantly fell to zero, and he fell to the ground without making a sound.

Seeing that the human was already dead, the Mist Demon removed his berserk state and fell into a weakened state.

At this moment, the black mark carried six bows and attacked, hitting the demon’s back.

In its weakened state, its defense was extremely low, and its already low HP fell to rock bottom.

Chu Qi, who was originally dead, recovered his full strength under the effect of the passive skill [Revival] that had a cooldown of 1 day.

Taking advantage of the weakness of the Mist Demon, he attacked.

The Mist Demon cried out indignantly before dissipating into the world.

The surrounding fog was no longer thick, but gradually thinned.

The town revealed its original appearance. There were still very few people on the street, but it was no longer empty.

There were also some fireworks in the shops by the road.

Without exception, the surrounding people did not seem to know that a soul-stirring battle had just happened here.

They continued to live their own lives.

It was like Chu Qi had a dream.

Ding! “After completing the hidden mission [Black Mist of Dry Leaf Town], you have received 28000 experience points, 500 gold coins, and [Dream Key]”

[Dream Key]

Special Item

Item Description: Can open the Dream Gate.

Coupled with this [Dream Key], Chu Qi’s backpack now had two different special items. He didn’t know what they were for.

Chu Qi could only put it in his bag and prepare to gradually investigate.

Looking at the town that had returned to normal, Chu Qi was not in a hurry to go straight to Red Maple City. Instead, he went to the mayor’s house.

“Foreigner, what’s the matter?”

A middle-aged man exuded a powerful oppressive aura. He held a bright silver red embellished spear in his hand and was dressed in white dragon scales.

He looked at Chu Qi who had broken into his house and asked with a slight change in expression.

Ordinary players would usually run away when they encountered such a situation, but Chu Qi was very calm.

In his previous life, he had once done an escort mission, but at the end of the mission, the person he escorted became the final Boss of the mission.

That experience let Chu Qi know that NPCs could also throw themselves into the darkness and become Bosses.

Therefore, when he faced the mayor this time, Chu Qi wasn’t frightened at all. His many years of gaming experience told him that there was something wrong with this mayor.

It was the truth. Just as he entered, a notification sound appeared beside Chu Qi’s ear.

“Two-person mission [Investigation] has been triggered. Reward: Gold weapon x1.”

“Do you accept the mission?”

“Accepted.”

Chu Qi calmly accepted the mission and then apologized before leaving.

Now was not the time to fall out with each other. Chu Qi came to the door and sent an email to his only friend, Wind Whisper.

“Come to Dry Leaf Town quickly. It’s a Gold-level two-person party mission. I’ll carry you.”

In less than two minutes, Wind Whisper replied, “F*ck, thank you, Great God Falling Dust. I sent the strongest person in our guild. I’m stuck with the Class Advancement mission and can’t go for the time being.”

Chu Qi did not say anything and just waited quietly.

Five minutes later, a light shone from the teleportation station and a cold-looking older sister appeared in the array formation.

Dressed in an assassin’s suit, she had more than ten short swords and darts on her. There were also two poisonous daggers at her waist.

The cold and arrogant girl looked around, as if looking for someone. The moment she saw Chu Qi, she walked straight towards him.
