Fearing that sothing unexpected might occur, Su Ran hurriedly directed the Dark Bone Lion to bump Han Siying’s corpse to the side.
However, to his surprise, even when the lion used the Charge Skill, it could not budge the body at all; instead, it staggered back several steps.
“Could it be, this is a system-enforced plot that can’t be reversed?”
With doubt filling his eyes, Su Ran signaled for the Dark Bone Lion to back away a little before he couldn’t help but mutter to himself, “I have no idea what kind of mission this woman took on, but why did it turn out so twisted?”
With no other choice since the current situation was unbreakable, he could only wait…
Huh?
A bright idea suddenly struck Su Ran’s mind.
After a brief consideration, he himself jumped into the fissure, used the Treading on Air Technique to gently land on the ground, and quickly walked towards the corpse.
Looking at Han Siying’s corpse with a sympathetic gaze, Su Ran, without uttering another word, directly pulled out a beginner’s hoe and began to dig the ground.
“Since you like absorbing blood so much, I’ll dig you out and see what kind of monster is causing this mischief!”
Su Ran smashed the beginner’s hoe hard on the ground.
Upon hearing the ‘clang’ sound, his spirits lifted.
There was hope!
Haha, it’s diggable!
Indeed, nothing is absolute.
The system couldn’t have set up a scenario with no solution, which was the main reason Su Ran dared to venture into danger.
A look of wild joy appeared on his face, and he wielded the beginner’s hoe even more vigorously.
“Clang, clang, clang!”
Under Su Ran’s frantic digging, a hole quickly ford.
As for Han Siying’s corpse, he kicked it aside.
Once freed, the corpse turned into a beam of white light and vanished from the space, leaving nothing but blood-red ground that was being ravaged by Su Ran.
After a while, as the hole gradually deepened and the soil beca increasingly hard, the effort beca more challenging for Su Ran.
Thankfully, his mining skill had reached level eight; otherwise, he really would have had trouble handling it!
However, much to Su Ran’s disappointnt, after such a long dig, he had not even unearthed a single piece of ore, let alone any special items.
But he knew there had to be a significant secret hidden here; it definitely wasn’t as simple as he had thought!
“Clang, clang!”
Su Ran did not pause for a mont, and he dug out a three-ter square hole with renewed vigor.
Just as he began to feel puzzled, a pale, unappealing finger appeared in front of Su Ran.
“Haha, it wasn’t easy, but it finally paid off!”
A joy surged in Su Ran’s heart, and he imdiately slowed down the digging pace, adopting a ticulous approach to avoid damaging the buried remains.
Through careful excavation, a complete arm erged from the soil.
Su Ran dared not touch it to avoid any accidents.
He first let the Dark Bone Lion carry it in its mouth, pacing back and forth several steps.
Only after confirming that nothing unusual happened did Su Ran confidently stuff the arm into his sack and proceeded to dig further.
Soon, Su Ran dug out various body parts from the deep pit—torso, buttocks, arms, thighs, with only the head missing to complete the body.
“Tsk, tsk, this fellow’s death was truly tragic.
Being quartered by horses is bad enough, but to also be suppressed by a crystal coffin after death, how vile must his cris have been in life?”
Regarding this grueso corpse, Su Ran didn’t entertain a single thought of sympathy.
A death like this ant the person likely committed so unforgivable acts while alive.
Moreover, this was a mber of the Ghost Clan, so why should he care?
But still.
No matter how much Su Ran dug and even expanded the excavation area, he could not find the head.
Eventually, he ran out of steam and lost hope for the head.
“Let’s consider it a criminal sent off to the heavens.
Digging further would only be fruitless!”
Su Ran used the Treading on Air Technique and easily left the deep pit he had created, returning to the ground.
“Strange, when did this teleportation array appear?”
Just after returning to the ground, Su Ran saw the teleportation array right in the center of the tomb space, emitting a faint glow, indicating that the array was currently in operation.
“It’s really magical, but it’s good that the teleportation array appeared; no need to worry about being trapped here.”
Thinking this, Su Ran stepped onto the teleportation array without hesitation, followed closely by his clone, the Dark Bone Lion.
“Swoosh!”
After the teleportation effect disappeared, Su Ran discovered that the outside world he had hoped to see did not appear; instead, he had arrived in another enclosed space.
“Oh co on, is this just ssing with ?”
Su Ran nearly burst into laughter from the system’s bizarre manipulation, wondering if it was even possible to jump between tombs like this.
Darn it, why is it so hard to just leave a tomb?
“Eerie, the system lured here, but what’s the purpose?”
Su Ran looked around and helplessly found that this place was also an enclosed space, with no exits visible.
However, upon closer inspection, it wasn’t without rewards; not far in front of him, a translucent bottle was floating in the air, with light points appearing inside it, resembling fireflies and very eye-catching.
“What’s inside this bottle?”
Since it could float in midair, what was contained in this bottle was definitely not sothing ordinary!
Driven by curiosity, Su Ran walked toward the bottle and grabbed it.
“Ding!
Congratulations, player ‘Skeleton,’ you have received a special task: Revive the Ghost Prison General Misgu.
Do you accept?”
The mont Su Ran’s hand touched the bottle, the system notification sound abruptly rang out, startling him.
“Oh man, a special task?”
Su Ran was initially shocked, but as he looked at the NPC’s na, it felt increasingly familiar.
He couldn’t help but flip through past tasks, only then realizing that fate’s coincidence had once again occurred in his life.
[Eliminate Ghost Curse] (Hidden Task)
Go to the Ghost Clan, kill the Ghost Prison General Misgu, and you will obtain the key item to lift the Ghost Curse.
Only by killing the Ghost Prison General Misgu can the curse on the Copper Thread Coin be lifted, but now he was tasked with reviving this NPC, leaving Su Ran completely baffled by the system’s maneuvers.
It was clear that the Ghost Prison General Misgu was initially ant to be revived by Han Siying; unexpectedly, Su Ran had forcefully taken this opportunity for himself.
However, these two tasks, one to kill and one to revive, seed sowhat conflicting.
Su Ran could empathize with how absolutely cruel this was for Han Siying.
No wonder that woman had such a strong murderous intent before her death; such unscrupulous actions of stealing opportunities would make anyone unwilling to die peacefully, let alone the proud and aloof Han Siying.
Should he accept this task?
Su Ran was troubled as he stared at the bottle in front of him, ruminating internally about how much easier it would have been to simply destroy these corpses and complete the Ghost Curse task…
Wait a minute!
The Ghost Curse task explicitly stated that he must kill the target!
