Capítulo 2063: Chapter 1668: Chance Encounter (Double-Length) (Part 2)
We’re rich!
“I feel like things aren’t that simple.”
Bei Diao stared at the stone pillars with a serious expression, feeling sothing was amiss. He voiced his doubts, “Do you think the system would be so generous? As soon as we enter this terrain, we’re given a big gift, doesn’t it seem fake? Brother Spilt Water, don’t be fooled by this illusion, or you’ll suffer big ti!”
“Yeah, I know. I just didn’t expect the system to tempt us with such a large and substantial gold mine, they’re really willing to invest!”
Su Ran looked at this gold mine, then at that one, feeling intensely eager.
“Hey, hey, get out of here, let try it. With my defense, the system shouldn’t be able to touch !”
Nan Qiang struggled to get out of the ice block, but since it showed no signs of lting, he could only shout to get the duo’s attention. He was regretting it, thinking he could’ve escaped with a few pick swings, but instead, he doubted Spilt Water’s abilities. Now, he had no temper left at all.
“You just stay where it’s cool for now. With Brother Overturning Water’s skeleton pets, it’s not your turn to play yet.”
Bei Diao grinned, “Don’t expect us to rescue you. Find a way yourself.”
“Damn, you both are so heartless. When you two get stuck, I won’t save you either!”
Nan Qiang said angrily, struggled a few tis, then gave up.
Su Ran didn’t reject Bei Diao’s suggestion and commanded the shield battle skeleton to one of the stone pillars, directly diving into the stone pillar space.
“Whoosh!”
Before the shield battle skeleton could stabilize, a protective barrier refreshed itself, blocking the entrance and sealing it inside.
Imdiately afterward, the so-called gold ore floated up by itself and exploded on the spot, scattering sharp fragnts that shot the unfortunate skeleton into pieces, shattering it all over the ground.
“Holy crap, that’s brutal!”
Su Ran was startled, and while sympathizing with the shield battle skeleton’s fate, secretly thanked his luck that he didn’t recklessly rush in, avoiding the trap.
“As expected, you were right. These stone pillars are definitely pits dug by the system,”
After the danger was exposed, Bei Diao felt relieved, turned to look at Nan Qiang, and said with a smile, “Weren’t you confident in your defense? Want to give it a try?”
“Hmph, I think being in this ice block feels pretty good. I wouldn’t co out even if you beg .”
Nan Qiang snorted and stood his ground against the duo. In this unknown terrain, they couldn’t do without him, a tank. No matter how many pets Brother Overturning Water had, what was the use if they couldn’t endure?
“Tch, co out or not, it’s not like we’re begging you. Stay where it’s cool!”
Bei Diao opened and closed the Evil Spirit Bone Fan and asked Su Ran beside him, “Brother Overturning Water, what are your plans?”
“Wait.”
Su Ran stared intently at the stone pillar space, the golden stones bouncing around chaotically, like a buzzing nest of bees, “I want to see what this gold ore becos after it stops.”
“We’re already at this point, and you still think it’s gold ore? Brother Overturning Water, have your skeleton pets trigger all the stone pillars. Maybe one of them holds a real prize, or perhaps, a passageway out of here.”
Bei Diao thought this way because in this white grid terrain, there were only these stone pillars. It seed that solving these pillars would reveal the next part of the story, better than being stuck here forever.
“You an using these stone pillars as a breakthrough point?”
Su Ran glanced at the pillars’ arrangent but couldn’t see any apparent hints. So he just went for it and, as per Bei Diao’s suggestion, had the remaining skeletons trigger all the pillars.
The skeletons almost t the sa fate, gold ore scattering, and the skeleton fras shattered all over.
Despite this, Su Ran didn’t find anything unusual, leaving him at a loss on how to proceed.
Even Bei Diao was out of ideas, opting to wait for the fragnts to settle before forming a new plan.
However.
The fragnts, after about two minutes of raging, ca together again, forming a brand-new gold ore, falling back in place without a single movent.
If it weren’t for the remains on the ground and the sealing glow at the entrance, Su Ran would really have thought he experienced an illusion.
“Brother Bei Diao, what do we do next?”
Su Ran was completely clueless. His skeleton army was decimated, and it would take a considerable ti to summon them again. He couldn’t afford to just wait idly, or the opportunity would pass!
“Fight!”
Bei Diao, having gained no clues, lost all patience and directly signaled an attack, “Brother Overturning Water, focus on output, leave the rest to !”
Su Ran really wanted to ask Bei Diao, it’s just a few stone pillars, what else could there be?
Forget it, now wasn’t the ti to be picky. They had to deal with these pillars quickly. However, his current power likely wasn’t enough to topple these pillars.
“Zoom zoom zoom!”
Su Ran launched several fireballs instantly, even sending the Iron-blood Sand Puppet after them, targeting the protective barrier. He planned to blast open the barrier and find a way to seize the gold ore, which might actually be real ore, making them rich.
But to Su Ran’s shock, his fireballs all fell flat, having no effect whatsoever.
“Stop, this isn’t the correct way to pass through. No matter how many fireballs you shoot, they won’t help.”
Bei Diao was stumped, having reached this special terrain only to not know what to do next. They couldn’t just give up and return to the city, could they?
“Could it be that the key item to passing this is the individual gold ores sealed in this cave?”
Su Ran speculated thoughtfully, but like Bei Diao, he had no leads, hoping to hear so useful clues from Bei Diao.
“It should be. We’ve got to figure out how to deal with these stones. The most dreaded thing for ore is refining, and you’ve got a top-notch Bone Cauldron, why not…”
“Brother Bei Diao, you an I go into that stone cave space myself and refine this stone?”
Before Bei Diao could finish, Su Ran interrupted, “I don’t have the power to withstand the ore’s barrage. I’ve got to figure out a reliable plan.”
As Su Ran and Bei Diao discussed solutions, a spatial fluctuation occurred, and a stranger teleported in.
This person, wearing mail armor and gripping a long-handled axe in both hands, was surprised to see Su Ran and the others.
“You guys are fast! You reached here in such a short ti!”
This player, like an old acquaintance, greeted Su Ran and the others, “Wanna team up? Let’s navigate this level of special space together and split any loot equally.”
“Team up with you? What can you do?”
Bei Diao took the conversation, not rushing to team up, one needs to know his strength first, then it’s easy to make plans.
“I don’t have special skills, but I do have this.”
The player presented a slender rock, smiling as he explained, “This rock is the teleportation stone of the Ice Hell, and it’s I who triggered this terrain. Plus, I have a quest related to this place, teaming up with you won’t lose out!”
“The teleportation stone of Ice Hell? I recall it’s a system reward, you’re the one who triggered the world announcent, aren’t you?”
Bei Diao’s interest piqued imdiately, wasting no ti in throwing him a team invitation. In this terrain, this guy was the main character, how could they not team up with him?
With the quest hints, their task would require less ntal effort, just follow the steps one by one, much simpler!
“Oh my gosh, Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, Nan Qiang, Bei Diao, each one is a prominent figure, and to team up with you guys, I really lucked out this ti!”
This player was so excited he almost jumped for joy, wanting to express a bit more but was interrupted by a sobbing Nan Qiang.
“Hey, newcor, can you help get out of here?”
Nan Qiang lanted, “My manhood’s gone numb from the cold…”
