ACSP: Chapter 77: As long as I reach Level 30, I can awaken the [Mangekyo Sharingan]!
"Thank you for the reminder, City Lord Li. I'll be careful."
Jiang Chen thanked City Lord Li Hongfei and prepared to head to the [Forest of Death] secret realm immediately.
The people from the Evil God Organization were not easy to deal with.
Although they had the Thunder God Temple and Puppet City as allies,
it still wasn't safe enough.
To be safe,
he planned to raise his level to 30 before going to war with the Evil God Organization.
Raising Sasuke Uchiha's template to Level 30 should allow him to awaken the dual Mangekyo Sharingan.
As long as he awakened the dual Mangekyo Sharingan, he could unlock [Susanoo].
At that time, whether it was defensive power or destructive power, there would be a qualitative leap.
Furthermore, after reaching Level 30,
calculating the unlocking sequence, Uzumaki Naruto's Sage Mode should also be close to being unlocked.
When that time comes,
with Mount Myōboku Sage Mode combined with [Susanoo], never mind a Contractor for Hidan,
even if the true Evil God descended upon the world,
he would still kill it without hesitation!
After all, [Susanoo] was known in the Ninja World as the 'Power of God,' capable of crushing all creation, unstoppable!
"Xiao Zhang, lead the way for Jiang Chen and take him to the Forest of Death secret realm."
City Lord Li Hongfei waved over a guard standing outside the infirmary and gave the order.
"Yes. Lord Jiang Chen, please follow me."
The man nodded respectfully, then stood by the door and made a gesture for Jiang Chen to proceed.
Jiang Chen was just about to leave,
but at that moment, City Lord Li Hongfei suddenly called him back again: "Jiang Chen, wait a moment. So much has happened that I almost forgot about these."
As he spoke, he pulled a spatial scroll from his robes and handed it over.
"According to our City Lord's Manor rules, anyone who reaches Level 20 can receive 2 Bronze Treasure Chests every day. You haven't collected any of these chests since you joined the City Lord's Manor, right? Normally, missed collections can't be made up, but you're different. You are now the Vice City Lord of our Jinghai City. I've made up all the chests you missed, and I've increased the amount to 10 per day. They're all in here."
Opening 10 chests a day was the limit for a max-level talent holder.
In City Lord Li Hongfei's understanding, Jiang Chen's talent level was 10, so he directly gave him the benefit of 10 chests per day.
Originally, the daily quota for a Vice City Lord was 5 chests.
But who could help it since Jiang Chen was now the strongest combat power in their Jinghai City?
To nurture him, City Lord Li Hongfei could only break precedent.
If anyone else in the city was dissatisfied,
he would just make up for it using his own daily quota.
In short, he would absolutely not be stingy when it came to Jiang Chen's resources and benefits.
However, upon hearing City Lord Li Hongfei's words, the others were all stunned.
Li Yanran couldn't help but ask, "Dad, when did Jiang Chen become the Vice City Lord of our Jinghai City?"
City Lord Li Hongfei said solemnly, "Just now. The appointment letter can be processed at any time later."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
With Jiang Chen's current prestige in Jinghai City, absolutely no one would object to him becoming Vice City Lord.
They just didn't expect City Lord Li Hongfei to move so quickly,
promoting Jiang Chen to the position of Vice City Lord of Jinghai City on the very same day.
...
"Are these all Bronze Treasure Chests?"
Jiang Chen reached out and took the spatial scroll handed over by City Lord Li Hongfei, asking after a moment's hesitation.
City Lord Li Hongfei nodded generously: "Yes. Don't you want to level up now? These chests have a chance to drop experience points. If you have 10 chests a day, with good luck, you can get tens of thousands of experience in a day."
"Only tens of thousands?"
"Huh???"
Before City Lord Li Hongfei could react, he heard Jiang Chen continue: "May I ask if there are any Silver Chests in the City Lord's Manor warehouse?"
Hearing this, City Lord Li Hongfei's eyes instantly widened.
Although their City Lord's Manor had many low-level Contractors farming resources in secret realms,
those people's strength was low, and they only brought back Bronze Treasure Chests.
One could say there wasn't a single Silver Chest.
The Silver Chests in his own hands were obtained by exchanging other things with people.
They were his private stash.
And there were only about a dozen of them.
Usually, he was reluctant to open them himself,
saving them for when his daughter pushed for Level 50 next time.
"There are Silver Chests, but not many. If you want them, I'll try my best to trade for some for you..."
City Lord Li Hongfei said with some reluctance.
Now that Jinghai City was facing a great disaster,
if Jiang Chen really wanted Silver Chests,
he would just have to part with his treasures.
"Never mind, I'll figure something out myself."
Seeing the pained expression on City Lord Li Hongfei's face, Jiang Chen knew the other party definitely didn't have much in stock, so he simply took back his words.
Then he turned to look at Li Yanran and the others and asked, "What are your levels now?"
Li Yanran scratched her head somewhat embarrassedly: "Counting the experience from opening chests and farming secret realms these past few days, we're all almost Level 21. We can't compare to you."
At this time, Lin Ye, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up: "We haven't entered a secret realm today. If we have a bit of luck later and farm one or two Silver Chests in the secret realm, maybe we can reach Level 21 today."
Wang Shanshan said with a smile, "Jiang Chen, you're asking about our levels—could it be that you want to wait for us to go farm that Forest of Death together?"
Jiang Chen nodded calmly: "Yes, that's what I was thinking."
Hearing this, Wang Shanshan and the others were instantly overjoyed.
They thought that since Jiang Chen was already so powerful, even if he wanted to find people for a team, he would surely look for those high-level Contractors in their 40s.
They didn't expect him to still be thinking of them.
Actually, Jiang Chen was doing this to farm experience more efficiently.
The people in Zhang Xiaolin's team were already Level 50 now; they would likely level up after farming the secret realm a few more times.
Level 51 Contractors cannot enter intermediate secret realms.
He would have to continue looking for people to re-form a team then.
He didn't trust strangers.
Instead of that, it would be better to just look for the original crew like Li Yanran.
After all, taking these people into secret realms meant he didn't have to worry at all about them leveling up too quickly and being unable to enter.
"Jiang Chen, why don't you rest here for a bit? The few of us will go grind the secret realm right away and try to be back before dark."
Li Yanran suggested with an excited face.
These past few days, she had dreamed of fighting side-by-side with Jiang Chen again.
Now that the opportunity was right in front of her, how could she miss it?
"There's no need for such trouble. I have some Silver Chests here that I can give you to open first."
Jiang Chen took out a Space Scroll from his robe, spread it on the ground, and quickly formed hand seals.
"—Bang!"
As a cloud of white smoke rose.
A pile of silver-glowing chests suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.
There were about thirty or forty of them, piled up almost like a small hill.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.
They never expected that Jiang Chen would have so many Silver Chests hidden away.
"This..."
City Lord Li Hongfei stared at the pile of boxes, completely dumbfounded.
Silver Chests can only be obtained when grinding Difficult-level Secret Realms, and the chance is very small.
Li Yanran and the others had been grinding Difficult-level Secret Realms these past few days, and they only managed to get two or three in a week.
He didn't expect that Jiang Chen would just pull out a whole bunch of Silver Chests so casually.
No wonder this kid looked down on the Bronze Chests he gave him.
Turns out he had already become a tycoon!
