While Lacanishu is a bit underwhelming, it's generally better to be moderately strong, as this way you can get both experience and loot. Although Leah rarely participates fully in combat, and mostly fights on her own, I'll teach her some theoretical knowledge first. She should be able to learn quite a bit.

After all, there are a lot of adventure knowledge that you still need to experience yourself. No one else will teach you!

"Liya, this trip is almost over. It's time for us to go home!" Wu Ye couldn't remember how long he had been out. A rough calculation put it at more than half a month.

"Okay, Brother Wu! I want to go home too! I think my parents must miss us a lot, right?!"

Wu Ye nodded, looked around to make sure there were no monsters around, then tore open the teleportation scroll, collected all the skeletons, and let Leah go in first. He followed in shortly after.

"The air in Roge still smells so good. I can't stand being outside for too long!" Wu Ye thought about it. He couldn't take a shower outside! And the environment was not good either. It was really uncomfortable.

I, a man, feel uncomfortable, let alone Leah!

"Let's go, Leah! Let's go home first." Although they were going home, they were going back to Leah's house first.

After walking for a while, they saw Betty standing at the door waiting for them from a distance.

"Big Brother! Sister Leah, you're finally back!" This time, Betty didn't rush over directly, but stood obediently at the door. But seeing that she was trembling a little, Wu Ye still squatted and stretched out his arms. Betty rushed over without hesitation!

"Pfft...Betty! Brother Wu, you dote on her too much!" Wu Ye picked up Betty with one hand and followed Leah into the house.

Aunt Mia was sitting on the sofa, resting and eating some fruit. When she saw her daughter coming back, she immediately went up to her and hugged her.

"Mom! I'm back!" Leah's simple words made Aunt Mia happy.

"Liya, you're finally back. Wu, welcome back. Come and tell me what you experienced while you were away!" Aunt Mia pulled Liya to sit on the sofa. Wu Ye also sat down with Betty in his arms.

"Mom, I'm telling you!..."

Watching Leah and Mia talking non-stop, Wu Ye felt as if he had returned to the days when he visited relatives. His parents would always nag at the relatives, either talking about their son or what happened in other families.

At this moment, Wu Ye held Betty, just like holding a daughter. Although he was not that old, he still had this feeling. It turned out that children can bring happiness to people!

It was already getting late and Aunt Mia had gone to cook. At this moment, the door opened and Uncle Jordan came home.

"Hey! Wu, you and Leah are back from your adventure? Did anything happen? I saw you were gone for over half a month. I thought something had happened." Uncle Jordan was actually very worried about them. After all, he now regarded Wu Ye as his own son. And Leah liked him too, so he was considered his son-in-law. As a father-in-law, he would definitely care about both of them.

"Uncle Jordan, you're back. Actually, I didn't encounter any danger when I went out with Leah, but I did get a scare in that cave in the Icy Plains. Luckily, I managed to get rid of that icy crow!" Wu Ye spoke as if he were describing something quite easy. He described the entire process in a very calm and nonchalant manner, without exaggeration. After all, nothing had gone wrong; he hadn't even been hit. The only time he'd been attacked was when he tried to engage in close combat.

Uncle Jordan's expression changed slightly when he heard about the cave in the Icy Plains. He'd been there before; after all, he was a level-30 Paladin! He knew Wu Ye was strong, and both Leah and Wu Ye were at similar levels. Going to such a dangerous place was only slightly risky.

At this moment, Jordan really wanted to call Wu Ye a freak!

"You kid, next time you should find out the way first before you continue. Don't rush in. I don't want to hear bad news from you. It's always better to be cautious!"

Wu Ye suddenly thought of the random skill-granting stone he had obtained earlier. He wanted to ask Uncle Jordan what was going on.

"Uncle, have you seen this thing?" Wu Ye took out the pink prismatic gem from his bag and handed it to Jordan.

Uncle Jordan's expression changed instantly after receiving the gem. It was as if he was looking at some precious treasure!

"Wu! This thing, this thing, it, it!!" Uncle Jordan was incoherent at this moment, and was very excited.

Then, after calming down his excited heart, he spoke again.

"Wu, this is the first time I've seen this thing! But my former blacksmith teacher once told me about this thing, and I always thought he was joking! I didn't expect it to really exist!"

Wu Ye was completely bewildered. Wasn't this the first time this thing had appeared? That was fine. Wu Ye had originally thought his appearance had caused some kind of bug in the world.

"Liya found this thing on a mutated Dark Gold Boss. I didn't know how to use it, so I figured I'd figure it out when I got home. Uncle, do you know how to use it?" Wu Ye was quite curious. Although this thing said it would randomly grant a skill, it didn't say it would grant a class skill! This confused Wu Ye. What if it granted a useless skill? Wouldn't that be pointless?

"You need to use a special method to inlay this gem into the amulet. It will generate a random skill. Because the chance of this item appearing is so low, there are no records of what skills it can produce. If you ask the wise man Kane, you might learn something new." Uncle Jordan also had a vague understanding and was not sure what skills were available. But he knew how to combine this item with the amulet.

Wu Ye was thoughtful and decided that he had to go find Kane and the others.

"It's time to eat!" Betty walked to Wu Ye and said, pulling Wu Ye back to his senses.

The family was having a great time during dinner and didn't say much. Because there was no room for Leah to sleep here, Wu Ye walked back to Betty's house first.

The next day, Wu Ye slept until noon and found that there was no one around him. Suddenly, he felt a little lonely.

He took out the prepared food and started eating. After washing the dishes and brushing his teeth, Wu Ye planned to go out and ask Kane about it.

"Wu, what brings you here today?" Wu Ye saw Kane and seemed to remember the papermaking he had mentioned earlier. But first, he decided to ask about the skill-granting stone!

Wu Ye took out the skill-granting stone from his backpack and handed it to Kane.

"Wu...this is...I haven't seen this thing for a long time. I didn't expect Wu to drop this kind of prop." Wu Ye listened to Kane's words. It seems that he has seen a lot! He is indeed a wise man!

"Grandpa Kane, do you know what skills this thing has?" Wu Ye was quite curious. After all, things outside of the game really made people want to explore!

Kane thought for a moment, then asked Cage to get a manuscript.

"Wu, take it and see for yourself!"

Wu Ye began to read carefully from the coverless manuscript. Leah had taken the time to teach him how to read, and now he knew how to read! This was mainly due to the fact that his memory had improved after the data was digitized.

I took a quick look and saw all sorts of skills listed. However, there were no professional skills. I even saw skills that only bosses could possess!

For example, Fire Nova! That's Diablo's fire ring skill, and there are other skills like Plunder, Grant, and Enhance. There are some that are useful, but the majority are useless.

"Thank you, Grandpa Kane, for the information. Here are some papermaking steps and recipes I took the time to write down yesterday! You can find someone to test it out first, and then you can start mass-producing it after you succeed!" Wu Ye was too lazy to experiment himself. After all, there were other things to do! He didn't have time to waste on this yet. Strengthening himself was the real thing!

Kane took the formula and his pupils widened! This! This...this handwriting is so ugly! It's so crooked and twisted, like a worm crawling!

Wu Ye ran away embarrassedly! Who cares if the handwriting is difficult to read! As long as you can understand what is written, that's fine!

As a result, as soon as Wu Ye went out, he met Rogge who came to look for him.

"Master Wu Ye, Captain Kasha wants you to go to her place!" The person who came was none other than Kyoko, the mercenary who reported to Kasha last time! (I wonder if any players still remember this mercenary)

"Huh? I just got home not long ago, and that old drunk Kasha has already set his sights on me?" Hearing Wu Ye call Kasha an old drunk, Jingzi almost burst out laughing. But she was professionally trained not to laugh out loud!

"Just follow me, it shouldn't be a bad thing."

Wu Ye then walked behind her, wondering what Kasha wanted to talk to him about. She'd called him over the moment he got home. It had to be something bad!

Passing by Rogge's training ground, he could always see different people training there. This reminded him of what the gym used to look like.

I walked straight to Kasha's office and saw her frowning as she looked at the documents in front of her. It was rare to see an old drunkard like this.

"Captain Kasha, Wu Ye, I've brought you here." Then Kyoko went out and closed the door.

Seeing Wu Ye not drinking, he felt a little uncomfortable.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" Wu Ye asked politely, fearing that the old woman would do something strange.

"You're back just in time, kid. I heard you took your little beauty on an adventure to the Stone Wilderness? Seems you even defeated the Frost Crow of the Frost Plain! She used to be a follower of the Blood Crow and a very capable rogue, but she was later corrupted by the power of Hell. Speaking of which, I have to thank you, but I have one more thing I want to trouble you with. The other adventurer teams aren't very capable, and they're too conspicuous. So..." Kasha suddenly hesitated. Should she tell Wu Ye about this?

"What's going on? What can I do alone?" This left Wu Ye bewildered. "At least tell me what you want me to do!" What's the point of just saying this? Just give me a task and let me figure it out on my own, right? The Riddler is really annoying!

"Some time ago, Rogge accepted a group of refugees, reportedly from the vicinity of the neighboring city of Ster. They say something happened there, leading to the destruction of those villages, but they can't explain why. They say it's a demonic invasion. But I don't know the specifics, and I don't think it's that simple. I'm worried that similar problems will occur around Rogge, so I'd like you to help me investigate the situation in Ster."

Kasha looked at Wu Ye, and Wu Ye looked back at her. What on earth was this vague mission all about? It was said to be about demons, but it wasn't clear what it was.

What if I encounter a Fallen? Wouldn't it be like delivering food if I go there? What if I get hit?

"Am I going alone? Is there anything I can do to protect my life?" Wu Ye was worried about his own life, not the reward. Life was finally starting to get better, and he didn't want to lose his life over an unclear mission!

Kasha couldn't help but frown. Why was this brat talking so much nonsense?! No one else would talk to him like that, would they?! However, uncertainty did lead to danger. If this brat died, Vera would probably hate him to death!

"You go alone, don't alert them. I'll go to the Mage Guild and get you the same teleportation rune I used to save Cain last time. You should know that this rune is quite valuable, so avoid using it if you can. But your own safety is paramount. When you're ready, go on your own. I won't see you off." Kasha then waved her hand, signaling she was leaving!

Wu Ye was speechless. As expected of an old drunkard, his attitude towards asking for help was completely different! But then he thought of the teleportation rune he'd used to save Kane last time. He felt a little more at ease. After all, it was a magic circle of invincibility that lasted a minute! And it even carried itself home. But encountering a pervert like that mysterious man from last time wouldn't be so great. After all, the level pressure was still too great!

Walking down Rogge's main road, I looked out at the bustling crowds. Adventurers, unabashedly dressed in their gear, and ordinary people were all walking the streets. I really didn't want this peaceful scene to be disturbed!

As expected! There is no such thing as a peaceful life. It’s just that someone is carrying the burden for you!

Although this mission wasn't certain to be dangerous, it would at least be safe. Wu Ye still had to go home and tell Leah and the others. After all, this matter was quite important!
