When 'God' Decides To Start Over

Chapter 663 - 272: Do you want to drink? _2

"If he’s not qualified, then no one in this world is qualified to use that Demon Armor. He’s the best Magic Armor Master in the world, even the gods can’t compare to him," Chu Jun said.

"Even if the gods came, it wouldn’t work. The old master said that this Demon Armor can only be used by one person," Chu Qi insisted.

"Who exactly is it for, then?" Chu Jun wondered, annoyed. "I don’t understand what the old man means by creating this Demon Armor and having you carry it, yet not allowing our Chu Family’s own Magic Armor Master to use it. What exactly is he thinking?"

"I don’t know," Chu Qi shook his head.

"You don’t know who it’s for, so why are you carrying it?" Chu Jun felt Chu Qi was dodging the question, but he also knew Chu Qi well; this man would never lie.

"The old master only said that if the Demon Armor encounters someone who can use it, it would naturally react. Li Xiu can’t." Chu Qi’s words completely dashed Chu Jun’s hopes.

"It’s just a Demon Armor, yet it can choose its own master? You’re making it sound too far-fetched." Chu Jun was skeptical of Chu Qi’s explanation.

"If the old master says it can, then it definitely can. The old master said this is the strongest Demon Armor in the world, and only the strongest Magic Armor Master can use it. As long as it encounters the strongest Magic Armor Master, it will surely react," Chu Qi stubbornly said.

"Alright then." Chu Jun felt helpless, knowing that no matter what he said, it was useless. Chu Qi treated the old master’s words as sacred and no one could change that.

Li Xiu went to the laboratory and handed the Turtle Shell from the City of Love to Ximen Ke.

"Oh, is this Light Base-level Demon Spirit Material?" Ximen Guan became interested upon seeing the Turtle Shell and quickly confirmed after a simple test.

"Yes," Li Xiu nodded.

"Where did it come from?" Ximen Guan asked in surprise.

"No need to worry about where it came from; if you can use it, keep it," Li Xiu said.

"What about the Demon Core?" Ximen Guan reached out his hand.

"I have a use for the Demon Core," Li Xiu had no intention of giving the Demon Core to Ximen Guan. These Light Base Demon Cores could be directly used on the Light-Speed Spear and Light-Speed No.3 later.

With a Light Base-level Energy Source, Li Xiu could completely control the Demon Armor to fight against Light Base-level Demon Spirits and Trial Takers.

"You’re not planning to use those Light Base Demon Cores on the Light-Speed No.3, are you?" Ximen Guan immediately saw through Li Xiu’s plans.

"I plan to, shouldn’t be a problem, right? You told me before that the Light-Speed No.3 isn’t that easy to break, right?" Li Xiu looked at Ximen Guan and asked.

"Of course there’s no problem. Go ahead and use it confidently," Ximen Guan replied with uncertainty, also unsure himself.

After all, he had never tested using a Light Base-level Energy Source. Whether the Light-Speed No.3 could actually handle Light Base-level energy, Ximen Guan wasn’t sure either. However, theoretically, it should be fine based on performance tests.

"As long as it can be used," Li Xiu said as he prepared to leave.

"Don’t leave. You’ve got ten Turtle Shells here, there must be ten Demon Cores, right? You can’t use that many yourself, give me five to research... two would be fine... just one then..." Ximen Guan implored Li Xiu, his gaze somewhat melancholy.

"Just these two," Li Xiu handed two Light Base Demon Cores to Ximen Guan.

Whether there would be another opportunity to visit the City of Love was uncertain; even if he could go, there might not be another chance to kill the White Shell Turtle. These Light Base Demon Cores were Li Xiu’s greatest asset, with uses in the future.

After leaving the laboratory, Li Xiu went directly to the Hero’s Gate, where Jani and his men were already waiting early.

"Lord City Lord, do you think they’re alright?" Jani pointed to the guards behind him.

"Good, I’ll take them with me first, you head back," Li Xiu wasn’t concerned about who they were, as long as they followed him inside.

"Would you like me to accompany you?" Jani asked respectfully.

"You may come if you wish," Li Xiu said indifferently.

"City Lord, since you hold your subordinates in such high regard, I wish to contribute to your cause," Jani said promptly.

"Then let’s go together," Li Xiu directly used the Trial Badge to access the trial, allowing them to enter the Trial Ground together.

The B-level Dark Maze posed no difficulty for the Trial Takers from the City of Light; even without Li Xiu leading them, they could easily pass.

When selecting rewards, among the twelve people, four admission tickets came out; the remaining people were given Trial Badges by Li Xiu, allowing them to enter Black Death City.

These people were true Trial Takers but they had never seen anyone as extravagant as Li Xiu.

Opening the Trial Gate without entering, using five Trial Badges in succession to open the entry, and then using Trial Badges to let them follow him into the Land of Trial — this was simply far too extravagant for ordinary Trial Takers.

The familiar black city, familiar furnaces and streets. Li Xiu glanced at Jani, who understood immediately, shouting to the ten Trial Takers: "From now on, you must strictly follow the orders of Lord City Lord, no private actions allowed, and absolutely no mention of today’s events when we return, or you’ll face military justice."

"Yes," the ten guards responded in unison.

"Assist me in accomplishing tasks here, each of you will be credited with a first-class merit," Li Xiu said indifferently.
