Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1161 - 1080 A Blessing in Disguise

However,

even when the entire team of mages switched to fire elements, they couldn’t change the situation on the battlefield. The number of water monsters never seemed to decrease, casting a lingering shadow over everyone’s hearts that wouldn’t dissipate.

As losses accumulated on one side and gains on the other, the player faction gradually showed signs of collapse. Inevitable casualties occurred, and only with the reluctant decision to summon shield-bearing players to the front lines did they ease the tense situation.

"Overturning Water, if this keeps up, it won’t be a solution at all. There’s a good chance we’ll both end up dead here!"

Xue Wuqing, facing attacks from venomous bees, changed from composed to struggling. Even her Pegasus had trouble coping, its wing beats growing more laborious.

"I know."

Su Ran’s Ice Arrow Technique was repeatedly unleashed. With the boost from his bone scythe, the attacks were considerably powerful. Coupled with the low physical defense of the venomous bees, it only took a few shots to kill one. But the sheer number of them was a huge headache for Su Ran.

"Swoosh!"

Seeing that Wu Qing was becoming overwhelmed, Su Ran no longer held back and summoned his Eternal Poison Dragon.

"Dragon!!!"

The moment the Eternal Poison Dragon appeared, Wu Qing’s face changed drastically. She stopped paying attention to the venomous bees and hurriedly retreated several steps. Only when she saw the dragon spew its poisonous breath onto the swarm, did she breathe a sigh of relief.

"Damn, a dragon!"

"How can such a creature spawn here? Isn’t this ridiculous?"

"Eh? This dragon seems to be on our side! Haha, turns out it’s Overturning Water’s pet!"

"Overturning Water is mighty!"

"Haha, joining the Singing Song guild was the smartest choice of my life!"

It only took a few seconds for the players to go from shock to exhilaration, and cheers thundered through the area.

The appearance of this dragon brought them hope for victory. For a moment, they fought with renewed vigor, as if they were on a battle stimulant.

The Cream Gentleman’s eyes sparkled with excitement. In adversity, Overturning Water always brought surprises, just like the last time in the Lava Tribe dungeon, when they had nearly been wiped out yet he managed to turn the tide. The presence of Overturning Water made her feel incredibly reassured, and subconsciously, her dependence on Su Ran grew deeper.

"Overturning Water, when did you get a dragon pet? That’s some deep concealment on your part, and so impressive too!"

Wu Qing’s exclamations rang out, full of undeniable envy.

"Quick, come and block them!"

Su Ran shouted urgently. Every drop of blood the Eternal Poison Dragon lost meant a drop in good feelings toward it, to say it didn’t hurt would be a lie!

"Oh, okay."

Wu Qing quickly rode her horse forward. With the Eternal Poison Dragon sharing the damage, she felt much lighter. However, she had trouble keeping her concentration and couldn’t help but constantly look at the dragon beside her, leading to several mistakes.

"Stop coveting it. It’s just a dragon, far from the Dragon Clan’s league!"

Su Ran shook his head helplessly, internally remarking on the allure of the Eternal Poison Dragon. It attracted everyone’s attention, standing out in the space like a star, under the watchful eyes of all.

"So it’s just a dragon. You had me scared there!"

Wu Qing finally relaxed and refocused, first flinging away a venomous bee that approached, then said thoughtfully, "Putting out a dragon pet at this stage would completely ruin the game’s balance! With a dragon pet, who would dare be your enemy?"

"Don’t talk so mysteriously, a pet is just a pet, how could it affect the whole continent’s situation?"

Su Ran scoffed, disagreeing with her notion. A dragon pet? He had seen the Beast King’s Five-Clawed Golden Dragon King. Even if that Dragon King was powerful, in the end, its fate was to sleep in the Beast King’s Coffin, wasn’t it?

The God-Demon Continent is not as simple as I have seen, nor can it be controlled by just one god, one demon, one human, one beast. The current balance is just a facade. When Ghost Clan breaks the seal and emerges, the world will plunge into chaos. Who will then reign supreme?

Of course.

But these were of no concern to Su Ran. He was just an ordinary person. As long as he could restore his health, he would have no regrets in this lifetime.

"Eh? Overturning Water, look quick, your girlfriend is waving at you, she might have found something!"

Xue Wuqing interrupted Su Ran’s thoughts while using her Ice Arrow Technique to repel the venomous bees and pointed in the direction of the fair-skinned youth.

"What girlfriend, why are you talking nonsense again! Let’s drop this subject, hear me?"

Su Ran first glared at Xue Wuqing before saying, "You hold them off here, I’ll be right back."

"You’re so blind to it, no wonder you’re still single!"

Watching Su Ran’s retreating figure, Xue Wuqing couldn’t help but murmur, "Such a shame, stuck with this blockhead, who knows how long it will be before anything develops... Sigh!"

With her collaboration with the Eternal Poison Dragon, the death rate of the bees dramatically increased, making the fight both easy and enjoyable. What she hadn’t noticed was that the number of bees attacking her was gradually diminishing, and nearly half had disappeared in a short while.

"Overturning Water, come quick!"

Seeing Su Ran stepping through the air towards her, the fair-skinned youth hurriedly yelled, throwing his image to the wind.

"What is it? Did you find the trick to beat this level?"

Seeing the fair-skinned youth’s excited expression, Su Ran was invigorated and quickened his pace, leaping past the group of bone lions to land in front of him.

"First, look at that swarm of bees!"

"What’s the point of playing coy at a time like this, just tell me straight... Eh?"

When Su Ran’s gaze fell upon the swarm of venomous bees in midair, he immediately sensed something was off.

"What the heck, how come there are so many fewer of them?"

What troubled Su Ran the most was the bees’ incessant revival trait; these creatures were like indestructible pests, constantly coming back to life—it was exasperating! But now, to his surprise, he saw the number of bees had reduced by nearly half!

This discovery gave Su Ran a glimpse of a breakthrough.

"Could it be that poison is their weakness?"

Among them, the only variable was the Eternal Poison Dragon, who used its toxic attacks, which made Su Ran consider this possibility.

"Let’s give it a try first."

In order to confirm his suspicion, Su Ran immediately issued an order to defend without attacking, and everyone, with doubts in their hearts, ceased their attacks.

"Whoosh!"

Su Ran summoned a bone spike and launched it at the group of Dark Bone Lions with low health left, and the moment the bone spike hit its targets, a cloud of poison erupted, turning the twenty or so lions a lurid green.

"Focus on the poisoned creatures!"

The fair-skinned youth instantly understood what Su Ran was thinking and promptly gave the command to attack.

Very quickly.

The twenty or so bone lions were brutally killed on the spot, and under Su Ran’s anxious gaze, he did not observe any signs of them reviving.

From this, it was evident that the secret to the immortality of this level had been unraveled!
