732: Chapter 661 Confronting the City Lord (Two in One)_2 732: Chapter 661 Confronting the City Lord (Two in One)_2 Hiss…
The team was once again dumbfounded.
What were they here for, if not to complete the dungeon?
This rare mission to continue with the dungeon was unexpectedly denied by Overturning Water without hesitation?
That was utterly against the rules!!!
“Little Fire, can you believe him…”
With concern in his heart, Youtong couldn’t help but call out to Little Fire.
But before Youtong could finish, Little Fire interjected, “I trust him.”
Four words were enough to clarify her stance.
It wasn’t hard to see that she was ready to take the risk and follow Su Ran’s madness!
“Shaless warrior, your answer surprises .”
The city master took a mont to gather his emotions, suppressing the anger in his heart and glaring at Su Ran.
“I had no choice, I was forced.”
Su Ran sighed, seeming genuinely aggrieved.
“What do you an?”
“City master, don’t take this personally, but we have been assigned a second task before we’ve even received the rewards for the first one.
Do you see our adventure team as cheap labor?”
Su Ran stood tall, his voice full of confidence and determination.
“What a joke, didn’t I already give you the talisman?”
The city master slamd his fist on the table, his anger rising.
His cheeks trembled as Su Ran infuriated him.
Clicking his tongue, Su Ran confronted the city master without fear.
“You’re a respected city master, who are you trying to fool?”
If the rewards they deserved were erased, how could that be acceptable?!
“The matters are separate.
The talisman was given to you for dealing with the Cloud Ghost Village!
The rewards that we should receive for risking our lives to complete the mission must be returned to us!
Otherwise, I have every right to question whether you’re using your authority as city master for personal gain!”
Wow!
The mont Su Ran finished, Little Fire and the others fell to the ground in admiration.
Dude, this is just a ga, not a courtroom…
Stepping back and assuming that you questioned, what good would it do?
“Hmm.”
The city master exhaled a long breath, the fury in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by a nonchalant smile.
He looked at Su Ran and said, “Shaless warrior, I underestimated you.
Your shalessness has reached a new level.
Fine, I didn’t care much about the rewards anyway.
I planned to teach you a lesson, but since you’ve ntioned it, it would be wrong of not to deliver.”
“Lad, seeing your dumbfounded face reminds of myself when I was young.
Ha ha, hahaha!”
After a burst of laughter, the city master moved his gaze from Su Ran to the rest of the players, waved his hand, and a light covered each player’s body, indicating that the rewards for the task had been given.
“Ding!
Congratulations.
Player Skull, you have completed the ‘Second Elder Slain, Clue to the Secret Realm Horn Found’ task.
You gain ten thousand experience points and one bottle of Underwater Breathing potion.”
The system notification sounded instantly, and Su Ran guessed that each mber of the team had received the sa reward.
“Wow, I got a bottle of Underwater Breathing potion, did you guys get it?”
Big Smoke cried out in surprise, “They even gave us an extra special potion.
I can’t believe it!”
As he saw it, offending the city master was equal to ruining their chance of continuing the dungeon.
They only had to wait to give up the dungeon, but now, things had taken a turn for the better.
They got the rewards for the mission and even received a critical item for the mission!
They had never received such treatnt before!
Big Smoke took a deep look at Su Ran, thinking to himself, Overturning Water, you have made everyone look at you with new eyes!
“I got one bottle too!”
“Sa here, we all got one!”
Little Fire held the special potion in her hand, visibly overjoyed.
With this potion, their chances of defeating the Magic Sky Snake were even higher!
But the question was, would they be able to accept the dungeon mission again after they refused it?
In the midst of their worries…
“City Master, you’re indeed very generous, well played!”
Su Ran nodded approvingly before formally addressing the city master, “Now that the issue is settled, we accept the mission!
For the tens of thousands of citizens of Cloud City, how could we just stand by and do nothing?”
At this, everyone was left speechless.
“Very good!”
The city master roared, banging the table in excitent, causing the parchnt paper to fall onto the floor.
Su Ran was startled again and felt like his soul was nearly scared out of him.
However, he decided not to fuss about it, considering the guy had just given him so advantage.
“Being able to let bygones be bygones and take on the responsibility shows a quality that’s hard to find in many!
Warrior, I was wrong about you!”
The city master smiled warmly, “With your help, my worries are alleviated.”
Everyone else: “…”
Was this world gone mad, or were they just falling behind?
“Ding!
Extension of the instance task, head to the Phantom Beast Cloud Pool, kill the Magic Sky Snake, and retrieve the Secret Realm Horn!”
After the system notification sounded, Butter Skin and others finally relaxed, the task was at hand, now they could carry on with this ga instance!
After saying goodbye to the city master and leaving the city master’s mansion, everyone still seed to be in a haze.
It wasn’t hard to guess that they still couldn’t digest this absurd reality.
The Phantom Beast Cloud Pool was located southeast of Cloud City, approximately a quarter of an hour’s travel ti away.
“Overturning Water, I never thought you’d stoop so low.
Today has been an eye-opener.”
Butter Skin stared intently at Su Ran’s mask, trying to discern sothing from it.
She still refused to believe that this could be the real Overturning Water.
Without a doubt, Overturning Water’s image as a tall and righteous figure had begun to crumble in Butter Skin’s mind.
She realized that she was having a harder ti understanding him.
Su Ran rely smiled without saying a word.
“Sis Butter Skin, don’t speak ill of Big Brother Overturning Water.
We got this special potion thanks to him!”
Hearing Butter Skin’s words, Youtong was the first to stand up for him.
“Yes, we never expected this NPC to have such a taste.
This might be the special condition that triggers the task prop, right?”
Big Smoke Ghost gave a grin, a wise light was flashing in his eyes, “Heh, next ti I will try it too.
What if he gives a treasure?
I’d be getting rich!”
Everyone else scoffed at him.
However, in a later instance, Big Smoke Ghost actually did this.
He deliberately insulted the city master and, unsurprisingly, was thrown out of Cloud City by the collar.
Of course, that’s a story for another ti.
In no ti, Su Ran and his team arrived at their mission objective, the Phantom Beast Cloud Pool.
Above the Cloud Pool, the water shimred and rippled, revealing its great depth.
Such a beautiful scene lightened their mood considerably.
“Big Brother Overturning Water, the Magic Sky Snake nests below here.
Be careful, there are many of its offspring here too.
They are low level, but their numbers are nurous.”
Youtong who had experienced many instances before, shared her wisdom, “These water snakes share hatred values, so if one is disturbed, the whole bunch is alerted.
It’s very troubleso.
This is the main reason why we always fail here.”
“So that’s how it is.
This elite instance is indeed challenging.”
Su Ran nodded his head, not saying much.
“Overturning Water, these water snakes do not have flying abilities, so you’re perfect for luring them out.
Draw out the small fry, then retreat a hundred ters from the Cloud Pool, to avoid alarming the Magic Sky Snake deep within.”
Butter Skin laid out the combat strategy for what was to co.
It was a situation similar to the Cloud Ghost Village, clear out the weaklings first, then go for the boss!
Although it was a clichéd strategy, it was still the safest way to clear the instance.
“Patter, patter, patter.”
With everyone else in hiding, Su Ran walked on air, arriving above the Phantom Beast Cloud Pool.
Looking down at the clear pool water below, he could hardly imagine the danger that lurked within it without prior knowledge!
“Whoosh!”
Su Ran conjured a small fireball, throwing it forcefully towards the pool.
The mont the fireball collided with the water surface, it exploded, causing water to spray everywhere, creating waves after waves.
Su Ran hovered in the air, staring closely, waiting for the scurry that was about to ensue.
However,
To his surprise, even after the water surface cald down, he didn’t see a single water snake.
“What’s going on?”
