Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

Watching the rough man disappear into the horizon, Yang Yu helplessly revealed a bitter smile.

The rough man’s strength was unfathomable, capable of easily crushing the hard Dragon Ball.

Having just experienced a fierce battle, if he somehow became an enemy, Yang Yu wasn’t confident about safely retreating with his companions.

The departure of the rough man wasn’t a bad thing for Yang Yu and the others.

But...

Yang Yu regretted internally, as the truth of the world was almost within reach, only to slip away like a cooked duck taking flight.

Yang Yu didn’t worry that the rough man would cause trouble.

Judging from his earlier behavior, his character wasn’t too bad; as long as others didn’t provoke him, he probably wouldn’t casually stir up any trouble.

From the perspective of someone who’s been transformed, with the world changed beyond recognition, one would certainly want to see firsthand what the world has become.

...Not just through someone else’s painting, but by seeing with one’s own eyes and hearing with one’s own ears.

This way, one can best avoid being blinded and becoming a tool manipulated by others.

Times change, but some things remain the same.

Yang Yu felt that if the rough uncle really caused something, the giant dragon, being the observer of the world, wouldn’t let him break the hard-won order on his own.

Calming his emotions, Yang Yu opened the system, where the task panel revealed new tasks:

[??????? Task

[Luka Sect]

Trigger conditions unknown.

Task description: ?????? Task reward: ??????]

[Task: [Soul from the Ancient]

Task description: Find the man who suddenly disappeared and obtain some intelligence from him.

Task reward: ????????]

Besides the extremely ambiguous task hint information, a small hint popped up at the bottom right corner of the system panel:

[Congratulations to the player for contracting the demon [He Meng] and learning the must-kill skill [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar].]

Looking at the dazzling golden words [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar], Yang Yu could hardly believe his eyes.

Is He Meng chomping on Clover every day, causing his luck to explode directly?

Yang Yu distinctly remembered the skill [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar] appearing in the ability options of the giant dragon species essence.

The various descriptions of [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar] were fresh in Yang Yu’s memory.

The must-kill skill [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar] varies by individual. The user will evoke the Dragon Bloodline within, synthesizing the Five-dimensional attributes of Strength, Defense, Intelligence, Special Defense, and agility to launch a powerful attack. There is a 5% basic probability of bringing the enemy near death; a 5% basic probability within an hour to increase basic attributes by 10%. For every 10% of enemies exceeding in comprehensive Five-dimensional attributes, 1% basic probability is increased.

The giant dragons are the strongest creatures in this world, and a must-kill skill suitable for their form is certainly not an ordinary skill.

And now, He Meng obtained it so easily.

Yang Yu couldn’t accept it.

Why did He Meng get almost equivalent rewards by merely consuming a second-grade Giant Dragon Magic Condensed Object when Yang Yu painstakingly won the Dragon God Conference?

Back then, Yang Yu thought being a warrior didn’t necessarily need such a must-kill skill, so he chose the more practical [Power of Giant Dragon].

But this doesn’t mean he didn’t covet the must-kill skill of the giant dragon.

No way, Yang Yu decided that if even He Meng could acquire this skill, he must find a way to snag it.

”Wait,” Yang Yu suddenly realized something, staring intensely at He Meng who was scurrying around the ruins, ”Now isn’t there an opportunity to snag it for free?”

Yang Yu couldn’t snag [Dancing in the Air] from Bai Jin because he couldn’t grasp the complex principles required for [Dancing in the Air], but this time is different; the skill appeared in the options, indicating Yang Yu has the prowess to learn it.

This time he must learn the skill from the adorable He Meng.

Clicking into He Meng’s skill interface, Yang Yu wanted to see what changes [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar] underwent in He Meng, but after searching left and right he couldn’t find [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar], only a skill named with question marks.

Yang Yu immediately realized that the skill named with question marks was [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar].

Can the skill be renamed after mutation?

Yang Yu opened the skill description: [??????] Countless water droplets separate from the body, dispersing in the sky, summoning water dragons to devour and rip apart enemies, causing up to 360% damage based on the sum of Five-dimensional attributes; then choose to temporarily enter dragon form, increasing attributes with some boost but exacerbating magic power consumption, sustained for 120 seconds. Skill cooldown five hours. Has a 5% basic probability...

Worthy of being a must-kill skill. Aside from the long self-description at the end, the explanation changed so much at the front.

Yang Yu was quite interested in the skill called [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar], particularly the option to temporarily enter the dragon form.

What form exactly would He Meng transform into sparked Yang Yu’s endless speculation.

If he learned [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar], what would it look like? If Bai Jin and others learned it, how would it turn out? How to control variables to make [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar] best fit a profession?

As someone who has experienced countless worlds of single-player games, Yang Yu’s heart for writing a strategy guide was long overdue.

However, the learning conditions for [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar] are too harsh. At most, only thirty people in a hundred years can obtain the usage rights of the giant dragon species essence. Not everyone who gets the essence can achieve a significant upgrade; it’s almost one in ten thousand to have a large-scale mutation, let alone trying to acquire a must-kill skill through the giant dragon species essence.

Real-world cannot restart. Helpless, Yang Yu could only restrain his curiosity.

What Yang Yu worried about now is how many skill points learning [Sky-shattering Dragon Roar] from He Meng would require.

Spend five hundred points and get it directly; slightly consider it within a thousand, but carefully consider the cost-effectiveness if it exceeds a thousand, since he was sure he wouldn’t trigger the special effects.

Yang Yu knew well that not all characters’ must-kill skills are more practical than small skills.

Speaking of must-kill skills, Yang Yu opened the task [Ancient Brave Lox], if he could strategize over 50% of Lux Underground Maze, he would obtain Hero Lox’s must-kill skill [Sky-breaking Restart].

Browsing the world’s history in the giant dragon’s knowledge base, Yang Yu had witnessed Hero Lox’s battles and seen this must-kill skill.

Though the specific effect of the must-kill skill was still unclear, Yang Yu noted that the move could reduce the enemy’s level and damage within a certain time.

A skill that can reduce enemy levels within a certain time was really unheard of.

Yang Yu still didn’t know what Hero Lox wanted to do, but if one day he resurrected like the Goblin Emperor and became an enemy, attention must be paid to this must-kill skill he uses.
