Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1188 - 1104 Seeking Wealth Amidst Dangers

"Don’t stop, keep digging!"

Following the shield warrior’s command, the players redoubled their efforts, fiercely digging into the peculiar ground.

They weren’t prepared for what happened next; the ground cracked open, resulting in a moment none would forget.

Countless tentacles pierced through the fissures, transforming into vicious whips that lashed out at the uninvited adventurers.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

In the face of absolute power, the players seemed insignificant, unable to even resist; they were whipped away, and the scene was truly gruesome.

"Damn, what kind of monstrosity is this?!"

"No way, we’ve dug up a BOSS!"

"This guy is so fierce, a single whip took out half of my health!"

"Could it be that we have unearthed the Guardian Beast of the treasure?"

A player meekly suggested, and then it dawned on everyone. They shifted their fears from the creature to the treasure it protected. They were surprisingly unanimous in thought—if the Guardian Beast was this powerful, the treasure it guarded must indeed be heart-stoppingly valuable!

The realization unsettled them all.

"Brothers, the opportunity is right before us, are we going for it or not?"

Because he was so excited, the shield warrior’s eyes turned a bit red, and his heartbeat quickened. But seeing those dozens of fierce and brutal tentacles, he felt a touch of apprehension and hesitated.

"Big brother, it’s just a life, what’s the big deal? Let’s go all out!"

"Exactly, exactly. If we risk it, a bicycle could turn into a motorcycle! The treasure of immense value is so close to us; I can’t bear to give up just like this!"

"Big brother, we’re all prepared to fight to the death, what are you hesitating for?"

The players were incredibly impatient, as if they wanted to pounce on the pesky tentacles and fight to the death right away.

"Good, that’s the spirit! Worst case, we’ll just respawn and come back. I refuse to believe that a hundred of us can’t take down a BOSS! Attack and sever these accursed tentacles!"

The shield warrior was inspired by his subordinates’ enthusiasm and immediately decided to charge into the fray!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The mage players took the lead in launching their attack, and dozens of magical darts were shot in succession. Explosions sounded ceaselessly, causing the tentacles to curl up into a ball.

Seeing that the first wave of attacks was effective, the players grew more excited. The chill was forcibly expelled from their bodies, and their hearts blazed with a fiery will to fight as they roared towards the closest tentacles.

However.

They had underestimated the power of the tentacles. The warriors who charged in were unlucky, caught by the frenzied tentacles and pulled straight into the hole in the ground, quickly silenced.

In just a short moment, the team lost nearly a third of its players. The disaster that occurred was far beyond their capacity to endure.

"Shit! This is a super BOSS!"

"Just the hundred and some of us trying to deal with it is just an overestimation of ourselves!"

"Big brother, let’s give up. This isn’t something we can deal with. Only the large guilds stand a chance to slay it!"

"But..."

Hearing his players’ continued persuasion, the shield warrior was reluctant. So many had died; retreating without a fight was not how he wanted to honor his fallen comrades.

"Big brother, don’t worry, we can sell the Corpse Hiding Map, that way we can compensate the brothers who have died."

There were some clever players in the team who, seeing the shield warrior’s hesitation, figured out the crux of the matter and continued to persuade him, "Selling it can still screw people over, and it’s the kind that screws people over without consequence!"

"Hey, that’s actually not a bad idea."

Finding a way out, the shield warrior nodded in agreement, "Since we can’t enjoy the treasures here, let’s use the Corpse Hiding Map to create even greater value!"

"What are you waiting for, let’s get out of here!"

All present lost the desire to face the enemy boss and, in a panic, fled towards the rear, quickly escaping from this mysterious place.

"Overturning Water, those people really went all out, they just lured the boss out and didn’t even last a round before giving up so quickly!"

Xue Wuqing couldn’t help feeling disappointed as she hadn’t seen these people perish on the spot.

"The disparity in strength between the two sides is too great, if it were me, I would’ve given up too."

Su Ran watched the group of people fleeing towards the sea and shook his head, it seemed they had been scared witless by this boss, losing all interest in continuing to explore the glacier and only wanting to escape from the island.

But...

Su Ran still couldn’t figure out how they knew there was a boss hidden beneath the surface?

It was very likely that this boss was guarding an unspeakable secret!

"Wu Qing, you go distract the boss, I’m going to check out what’s beneath," said Su Ran, making a shocking decision that left Xue Wuqing with her mouth agape in surprise.

"Overturning Water, are you sick? A boss that over a hundred people couldn’t handle, and you want to challenge it alone?"

In Xue Wuqing’s eyes, the disbelief was evident, feeling that Su Ran’s plan was ludicrous, akin to courting death!

"Don’t worry, I plan to take a detour, I won’t face the boss head-on. You just need to cover for me, don’t let the boss return underground. I want to see what exactly is hidden down there!"

Su Ran was resolute, his eyes blazing with excitement as he looked downward, his heart filled with thrills.

"Fine then, I’ll join your madness, but don’t blame me if you die!"

Xue Wuqing gave Su Ran a displeased look, knowing there was no time to delay. It would be much more difficult to lure the boss out again once it buried itself underground. With her heart set, she hurriedly rode her flying horse downwards, her ice spear at the ready for a piercing attack. Distracting the boss with hatred wasn’t a difficult task for her.

Su Ran briefly observed the players fleeing into the distance, and, once confirming they had taken to the boats to leave the island, he quietly descended from the air and began digging not far away.

As long as he could dig through to the passage and uncover the secrets hidden within, it would be both easy and enjoyable!

Of course,

he had to create an escape route beforehand. Otherwise, if the boss trapped him inside, wouldn’t that be digging his own grave? fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

"Clang! Clang!"

With forceful digging, Su Ran excavated a deep hole in the ground. He looked up with some concern, but seeing that Xue Wuqing was handling the tendrils with ease, he stopped worrying and focused entirely on the digging.

Finally, after nearly ten minutes, Su Ran had dug through the passage. He dared not go down himself and instead summoned his Dark Bone Lion clone, directing it to jump into the passage.

Interestingly, the temperature inside the passage was significantly different from the surface, which did not seem to trouble the Dark Bone Lion at least.

The Dark Bone Lion proceeded down the passage, fortunately encountering no creatures on the way, which made things easier for Su Ran.

When the clone reached the end of the passage, it discovered a huge coffin sitting squarely in front, looking exceedingly sinister and terrifying against the silent backdrop.

"These guys, could they have obtained a Corpse Hiding Map?"
