217: Chapter 216: Unknown Skull 217: Chapter 216: Unknown Skull Su Ran had no ti to appreciate the dazzling sight, his mind was consud by a single thought, escape!
He knew, this two-headed fire monster was mustering an explosive attack, and when the explosion ca, it would be earth-shattering.
If not now, then when?!
He found himself wondering.
Just as the energy gathered by the two-headed fire monster crested, the revolving ring of fire transford into a blade, suddenly plunging into the body of the two-headed fire monster.
“Boom!”
The ring of fire acted like a lit fuse, causing a violent explosion in the body of the fire monster.
The explosion initiated a massive shockwave that spread out in all directions, leaving a vacuum of total silence at its epicenter.
Rampant, scorching flas rushed out, seeking targets to bombard.
However.
Su Ran, equipped with his scouting skill, had already predicted the power of this attack and successfully evaded it.
The self-destruction of the two-headed fire monster amounted to nothing in the end.
It was reduced to ash, with its soul dispersing into the world.
“A key dropped!”
As the lingering effects subsided, Su Ran rushed towards the spot where the two-headed fire monster had perished.
It had dropped a rather inconspicuous key after its death, and the key was identical to the previous one Su Ran had found!
“Snap!”
With the key in his hand, Su Ran felt a wave of relief.
Playing the ga can be really thrilling.
“I can’t actually suffer from a heart attack!” he thought.
He knew that his heart wasn’t supposed to beat this intensely.
However, it seed that the ga had so protective chanism for the heart.
No matter how many dangers he had braved, he didn’t feel any physical discomfort.
Realizing this put him at ease.
But, thinking about the tricky health condition he had in real life made the Bone Soul Ghost Fire in his eyes dim slightly.
“Save , Brother Overturning Water~”
Upon hearing this voice, Su Ran took a look, and saw the Black Crow above him, having stopped struggling and seeming much more alive than before.
“What’s wrong, it’s great up there, you won’t have to worry about getting killed.
It’s absolutely safe!”
“But, if I don’t go down now, I’ll miss the treasure chest and the coffin!” After saying this, the Black Crow started struggling forcefully, visible tension on his face.
A loud “crack” sounded, and he collapsed from the top of the rocky layer onto the ground, lying there motionlessly.
“Dead?”
Seeing the Black Crow lay still, Su Ran ca over to give him a kick.
“Cough cough, I just fainted, ow my head…” Black Crow, holding his dizzy head, struggled up from the ground.
“Brother Overturning Water, give the key, I’ll open that coffin!”
The Black Crow, not bothering with the dirt on his body, reached out towards Su Ran to ask for the key.
“First, fill up your health.
Otherwise, if sothing unpredictable happens again, you risk death.” Su Ran chortled, one of the ga’s perks was that no matter how severe the injury, as long as the health bar didn’t deplete, the character wouldn’t die.
Black Crow was taken aback and quickly took out Healing Potion from his backpack.
After replenishing his health, he started hopping around enthusiastically.
“Key, Key!”
“Look at your eagerness, first go and open that mysterious chest.
It can’t be moved, and if monsters spawn again, it would be troubleso.
Coffin’s not urgent, it can be opened anyti!” Su Ran said to Black Crow, “Are you going to open the chest?”
“No way, I’d rather die than go there again!” After the unforgettable experience, Black Crow refused to go through it a second ti.
Su Ran walked silently to the side of the mysterious chest.
Compared to the one hidden under the altar of Rat Raksha, this mysterious chest was much smaller.
It also had the sa design.
Su Ran looked at the small hole ant for embedding, it evidently needed a Rebirth Gold Bar.
Without hesitation, Su Ran took out the Rebirth Gold Bar and put it into the hole.
“Snap!”
A golden light appeared on the mystery chest, and the lid was suddenly flung open, revealing a blood-red skull hovering in mid-air, accompanied by a modestly-sized teleportation circle.
“Damn it, damn it, damn it!”
It was needless to say how regretful Black Crow was, he had gifted the mysterious chest to soone else, who wouldn’t be upset?
He managed to control his trembling feet and retained a shred of dignity, glaring at the peculiar skull with a face full of bitterness.
Su Ran glanced at Black Crow, a bit surprised.
It definitely wasn’t part of his nature to control himself under such circumstances.
Seeing his expressions, Su Ran instantly understood—this outcast was clearly giving up the mysterious chest and was waiting eagerly to open the coffin.
Carefully avoiding the glow from the teleportation circle, Su Ran took down the floating skull.
Holding it in his hand, he ticulously examined the properties of the skull.
[Unknown Skull](Special)
Complete the set with other limbs, awaken the dead.
Note: Consumable by native creatures for direct evolution.
Confirm to cause a drop after their death.
The skull appeared to be wrapped in a hazy mist, which made it impossible to make out any details.
Not waiting for Black Crow to co closer, Su Ran threw the skull into his inventory and ignored it.
He rembered very well what Rat Raksha had said—the owner of the arm was a defeated opponent, and they had absolutely no basis for comparison, thus he had no appetite or patience to collect the rest of the limbs.
“Brother Overturning Water, can I see the skull?” Black Crow stepped forward with a bashful face, his twinkling eyes threatening to blind Su Ran.
Luckily, Su Ran’s only had sockets for eyes, making it possible to resist the shalessness of Black Crow.
“No, you had your chance, now it’s too late.”
“You…you’re so heartless!” Black Crow looked devastated, “Quickly, give the small key to soothe my wounded heart!”
Su Ran chuckled to himself.
This blockhead prioritized the coffin that was capable of triggering terrifying phenona.
It was undoubtedly a valuable item, far more desirable than arms or legs!
“Here, satisfy yourself!”
Su Ran threw him the key and casually took out the mysterious coffin to place it on the ground, giving Black Crow a chance to showcase himself.
Black Crow received the key and quickly skipped to the coffin.
He took a few deep breaths and did so squats, working to calm his excitent.
“Amitabha, bless , give a golden armor set of the Saint Seiya!” Black Crow chanted soberly, “I don’t want any equipnt from Calabash Brothers, Ultraman’s too big for ….”
“Hey, you just revealed your age…”
“Don’t interrupt , or I’ll deflate your girlfriend’s ego!”
…
However, when it ca to the topic of girlfriends, an image of Lin Yuqing’s smiling face appeared in Su Ran’s mind.
In her smile, her eyes were curved like a crescent moon.
It had been a while since he last saw her, he wondered how she was doing.
He distinctly rembered that she was going to be admitted into a college in the Eastern Province.
They would be classmates again.
They would be able to go to school together, leave school together.
The future days were likely to be plain but happy and fulfilling.
Suddenly, Black Crow’s shout pulled Su Ran out of his mories.
Su Ran found that Black Crow’s pre-opening preparations had been completed, and he was about to insert the key into the small lock of the coffin.
