CHAPTER 2055: CHAPTER 1664: SUPREME SKILL BOOK, LUCK BRACELET (TWO-IN-ONE) (PART 2)

"Banana, are you there?"

All that’s left is a hundred gold coins and several bottles of potions, which Su Ran completely ignored. He opened the friends interface and saw that Banana was still online, so he contacted him proactively, "If you’re there, give me a shout. I’ve got a fortune for you."

"Brother Overturning Water, I’m digging graves right now, don’t joke around. If you want to give me a fright instead of a fortune, I’d be thanking the heavens!"

Banana replied quickly, and from his words, it was easy to tell that he didn’t believe a word Su Ran said. "If you have something to say, just say it directly. No need to beat around the bush with me, don’t play these virtual games with me!"

"Would you believe me if I said I got a thousand ’Infinite Money’?"

Su Ran wanted to laugh at the thought of Banana’s pitiful task. Digging up a thousand ’Infinite Money’ would take quite some time, truly a massive project!

"I believe you’re a big fool! Can’t you see I’m busy? If there’s nothing, I’ll hang up now. I’m digging graves, no time for chit-chat!"

Banana couldn’t be bothered to listen to Su Ran anymore and directly closed the friend message. But just then, as if he remembered something, he quickly reopened the friends interface and sent a message over.

"Brother Overturning Water, you went offline without even answering me, which is such a way to dodge questions. I just want to understand what’s going on between you and Yu Qing. Should I call her sister-in-law when I see her?"

"Sister-in-law my ass!"

Su Ran replied irritably, "Don’t listen to that woman talk nonsense. Since when did I become her man? She dares to say anything and tarnish my innocence!"

"With someone like you, you still have innocence? Don’t tell me you’re still a virgin?"

Banana chuckled, then advised, "Brother, I’m telling you, Yu Qing is a great woman. She has power and looks. With such an exceptional woman, what are you still picky about? Just accept her already!"

"..."

Su Ran had the urge to curse. Since when did Banana become so gossipy, daring to say anything, even assuming he’s a virgin...Although that point wasn’t wrong, no need to comment.

"Banana, since you’re so fond of President Yu Qing, I’ll leave her to you. Try to win her over!"

If only it were that simple. Sister Ting is already taken, he’d be relieved. But whether this kid can handle Sister Ting, that’s really uncertain.

Just thinking about Sister Ting’s explosive temper made Su Ran’s scalp tingle. With Banana’s ability, controlling Sister Ting would be tough.

"Brother Overturning Water, you can’t say such things lightly. Even if I’m a scoundrel, I wouldn’t hit on my brother’s girl, so rest assured!"

Banana said confidently, not even leaving time for hesitation.

"Well, then I really need to thank you."

"No need to thank me. It’s my awareness as a little brother. A sister-in-law will always be a sister-in-law. I absolutely won’t lay a finger on her!"

"This awareness is fine, but applied to the wrong place. I was going to give you a Skill Book, but now I’m quite unhappy, so forget it."

Su Ran didn’t want to waste more words with Banana and mentioned the Skill Book.

"Skill Book? I can use it?"

Banana was startled at first, then joyfully sent a voice message, "Brother, wait for me. I’m returning to the territory right now!"

"Weren’t you busy digging graves?"

"Time is precious, but digging graves is more valuable. With a Skill Book out, both can be abandoned!"

"Banana, you’re really shameless."

"Learned from the best!"

"..."

Su Ran was left speechless. To be fair, Banana’s way of speaking was indeed like his own, seems he really got Su Ran’s teachings. If he learns how to read the room, he would be ready to graduate.

"Brother, where’s the Skill Book,"

Banana came running to Su Ran, panting and said, "Quickly take it out, let me enjoy it!"

"In your dreams, this fortune isn’t for you anymore."

Even though he said this, Su Ran still sent a screenshot of the Skill Book’s attributes.

Seeing the Skill Book’s attributes, Banana immediately knelt down.

"Brother Overturning Water, this Skill Book is too valuable. I’m not worthy of it, just sell it!"

Banana held back his reluctance and said something against his own heart, like pushing a beloved woman away, so heartbroken he could barely breathe.

This was the special skill ’Thunderbolt Heavy Arrow’, with an effect to control the enemy, a skill he’d been dreaming of!

If the skill only had these attributes, he’d accept it, considering the archer profession was too rare, finding the right buyer wouldn’t be easy. But this skill happened to be a valuable General Skill, anyone could learn it, which required him to think carefully...

"Hey, think carefully, miss this chance and finding a skill like this again would be difficult."

Su Ran had already seen through Banana’s little thoughts. If he took back the Skill Book, Banana would definitely lose sleep tonight, no doubt about it.

"Brother, I’ll stop pretending. I want this Skill Book, it can greatly enhance my strength, missing it would be a pity."

Banana stared at Su Ran with burning eyes, putting on a heroic demeanor, "I’ll do whatever you need, even if it means going through fire and water, I won’t refuse!"

"That’s better, rather than letting someone else have it, I’d rather give it to you. Banana, you know the value of this Skill Book. If I didn’t assign you something, taking it wouldn’t let you feel at ease. I’ll say it again, are you taking the job Yu Qing’s offering?"

"Brother, please don’t make it difficult for me. President Yu Qing likes you, it’d be inappropriate for me to swoop in, don’t forcefully push it, alright?"

Banana was troubled, if it weren’t for the great value of the Skill Book, he would’ve left already.

"Do you understand now that I have nothing to do with President Yu Qing? I’m just trying to teach you a lesson, stop jumping to conclusions. What wasn’t there, you made it real, even calling her sister-in-law. If others hear it, I’d really be in a mess."

Su Ran wasn’t too hard on Banana, tossing the Skill Book to him, and asked, "How’s your Infinite Money task going?"

"Brother, you’re right, I’ll keep my mouth in check from now on. What’s wrong isn’t said, whatever you say is right, I mustn’t pick the wrong side!"

Banana nervously grabbed the Skill Book, hugged it close without using it, incredibly excited as he spoke with immense joy, "I’ve completed one percent of this task. As long as I keep going, I’ll definitely finish it!"

"The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard, go for it, young man!"

Su Ran walked toward the teleportation array, saying, "Banana, I need to go to the Demon Realm for a task, won’t be back for a while. Could you help watch over the territory for me? If anyone invades, handle small cases yourself. If it’s too much, just let me know."

"No worries, it’s what I should do. I can be online for about twenty hours a day, nothing should slip through!"

Banana patted his chest, assuring Su Ran he didn’t need to worry about this.

"No need, the territory has its own defense system. To take down my city, they’d need to pay a price!"

Su Ran was very satisfied with the territory’s defense. Not to mention anyone else, even Sister Ting with her tens of thousands of elite soldiers might not be able to take down his territory. Sister Ting probably thought the same, which is why she decided to surround but not attack, avoiding unnecessary losses.

Without further talk with Banana, Su Ran directly used the Instant Movement secret skill to leave the territory, heading toward the Demon Realm, starting a new journey.

As for whether he’d encounter fatal danger, or if this magic mirror task would be successful, that would need time to determine.

But before Su Ran reached the Demon Realm terrain, his friend’s alert sound rang.

Su Ran became very apprehensive about this sound, afraid the message was from Sister Ting or Sister Wan’er, unsure how to deal with them. Fortunately, the message was from none other than his desk mate, Lin Yuqing.

"Soda, I talked to my sister."
