"Undead, you don’t know how to seize such a good opportunity. When you leave here in the future, it’ll be hard to see again."
"Whether it’s hard or not, no one can say for sure. It’s all about chance. When the ti cos, we naturally et, just like this spirit egg. When fate arrived, it naturally fell into my hands. When I want to join the Ghost Clan, I’ll seek your recomndation. Right now, I really don’t have that idea, so you might as well give up!"
Su Ran really wished he could step into the sealing shield and slap this old geezer. Thinking he couldn’t beat it, he gave up.
"Such a pity for a good seedling."
Bloodsucker Venerable sighed, then said, "This spirit egg was nurtured by . It has a bloodline connection with , related to my freedom. You must protect it well!"
"What? Nurtured?"
Su Ran was dumbfounded, glancing at the chest and groin of Bloodsucker Venerable without seeing any female traits, hesitantly asked, "Senior, excuse , are you male or female?"
"... ..."
Even a Ghost Venerable, experienced in the world, found it hard to stomach this undead’s verbal onslaught. If not trapped by this sealing shield, he probably would’ve gone berserk.
"Could it be that senior has so unspeakable secret? Oh, I understand, your Ghost Clan and the Human Race have different physiological structures, and you are oviparous. If I’m not mistaken, you’re hermaphroditic, right?"
"Undead, will you die if you don’t speak?"
Bloodsucker Venerable couldn’t hold back, roaring, "Listen well, this is my Life Core, not a pet egg!"
"Senior, my hearing is decent, why are you so startled? As a Venerable, is this behavior suitable?"
Su Ran finally received so useful information about the spirit egg in his hand; it’s not a pet egg, but Bloodsucker Venerable’s Life Core!
So that ans...
As long as the Life Core is shattered, this Ghost Venerable will be in peril?
Su Ran’s heart felt a stir, eyes filled with heat, feeling a rush to gamble big, even if the mission fails, he could claim the first kill of a Venerable, which is supre glory!
Not to ntion the demon races, even his own undead race could offer him rich rewards!
But before Su Ran could act, Bloodsucker Venerable spoke again: "Undead, the spirit egg in your hand is one of my many Life Cores. Unfortunately, this one is relatively small, so it can only be described as a spirit egg; don’t bother making a fuss over it."
Dammit!
Su Ran’s thought was extinguished by a splash of water. No wonder the alliance of gods, demons, and humans couldn’t take down this old guy; the Life Cores can produce so many, it’s hard to die!
Realizing this, Su Ran suddenly felt the spirit egg in his hand lost its appeal, void of attraction.
"Senior, what do you want to do with this spirit egg?"
"The next task is crucial, listen closely!"
Bloodsucker Venerable’s crimson eyes suddenly contracted, speaking solemnly, "I need you to collect the blood of gods, demons, and humans and infuse it into the spirit egg!"
"Does it have to be mixed blood from the three races, or is one race enough?"
Su Ran’s eyes lit up. Right now, during the hunting conference, is the best opportunity. Player corpses are everywhere; collecting blood is a piece of cake?
Like fishing in a drought, no difficulty at all!
"One race will suffice."
"How much to collect?"
"The more the better!"
"Senior, isn’t it difficult forcing a low-rank undead to do such a hard task?"
Su Ran nearly burst into laughter. This is the critical mont; he can’t slip up!
If he could bluff so treasures from the Venerable, wouldn’t that be fantastic...
"Undead, I told you long ago, this is a one-way path. Even if you want to regret, it’s too late now!"
Bloodsucker Venerable sneered, "As for how to complete the task, you’ll have to figure it out yourself!"
"Senior, it seems like you’ve misunderstood. The word ’regret’ isn’t in my life dictionary, but what I want to express is whether you can assist within the allowed scope?"
Su Ran revealed his thoughts, "After all, I’m a low-rank undead with limited power. Even if I risk my life, I can’t collect much blood. With your assistance, it would be different, right?"
"Undead, your power is not weak, you have obtained a dragon pet and an artifact beast, plus your unsealing ability. This task shouldn’t be too hard for you. How do you want to assist you?"
"Senior, speaking like that makes no sense. A respected Venerable helping a junior with a task should be only natural; not even the rules would intervene. But, I am truly disappointed by your responses!"
Su Ran pressed his case, portraying the role of a weaker being to perfection, this strategy used frequently was now instinctive.
"A sharp-tongued undead!"
Bloodsucker Venerable gave Su Ran a deep look, "Alright, I’ll throw you a bone. How about this, I’ll grant you a Ghost Hidden Talisman which provides a high-grade stealth effect for 30 minutes. It will facilitate your blood collection. Once your task is complete, your rewards won’t be short!"
"What? Just one talisman?"
Su Ran felt slightly disappointed. Though the talisman is good, it’s a one-ti use tool, once used, it’s gone. If he had learned a technique or two it’d be so much better; a blood-sucking skill would be great, saving a lot on grave-tending...
Nonetheless, this is free after all, better than nothing, plus there are rewards for task completion, the bigger part is yet to co, no hurry.
"Alright, I’ll take the task. Ghost Venerable, senior, await my good news!"
Su Ran said confidently, eager to leave here, to contribute as many player corpses as possible before Beast King Xisi collapses, to gorge to his heart’s content first!
"Ding! Congratulations player Skeleton on acquiring a special hidden task, absorb the blood of gods, demons, and humans. Task ti: 24 hours. Task rewards proportional to total blood amount collected. Task failure punishnt: unknown."
The system’s prompt sounded diligently, thoroughly extinguishing Su Ran’s fortunate thoughts.
"Whoa, this task has a ti limit! Even has failure punishnt, what’s this unknown about?"
Su Ran was startled by the task information. Unknown task punishnt was a first for him; even Bloodsucker Venerable hadn’t ntioned it, undoubtedly this old fellow feared he would refuse the task, so sly!
"Why care so much? I trust your capabilities; such a task shouldn’t be hard for you!"
Bloodsucker Venerable held the talisman in hand, not forgetting to remind, "Rember, return on ti, only then won’t the task fail!"
"Farewell, senior!"
Su Ran had no ti to waste here, hurriedly dashed into the sealing shield, grabbed the Ghost Hidden Talisman, and swiftly left.
No choice, the journey is long, wasting nearly an hour for every round trip, ti is tight, must hasten!
Rewards proportional to the total blood amount, if he absorbs every player corpse, imagine the rich rewards he’d receive?
Thinking of this, Su Ran was full of anticipation.
"Undead, whether this seal can be shaken off depends all on you..."
As he watched Su Ran’s departing figure, Bloodsucker Venerable’s eyes sparked with faint hope, then shook his head and returned to the chair behind him, the orange shield vanished instantly, plunging the whole tree hollow space into silence.
... ...
"Why hasn’t Brother Overturning Water co? Could have run into trouble?"
At this mont, Banana was pacing at the agreed location, worried.
However, he trusted Brother Overturning Water’s survival skills would suffice.
Amid Banana’s wild thoughts ca rumbling sounds from afar, even the ground underfoot quivered slightly. Subconsciously looking ahead, realizing what’s happening, he couldn’t help shout in alarm—
"What the heck!!!"
