Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1367 - 1266: Special Space

"Scary, almost fell for it!"

Fortunately, Su Ran was outside the city at that moment, unaffected by any suction force and thus dodged that terrifying disaster.

Not just Su Ran, all the players outside the city stopped in their tracks, none daring to rashly enter the main city, fearing the emergence of the suction force again and being unlucky as a result.

But Su Ran was different, how could he let such a great opportunity pass by? He dashed in swiftly, stepping over the huge crack, bypassing everyone’s line of sight, and barged into the home of the Western Monk.

"Damn, it’s really ’Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained’!"

"Just now I thought it was a fake, didn’t expect it to be real! So frustrating, to not have had the chance to witness the God’s grandeur up close, how great it would have been to add him as a friend!"

"Look, the crack didn’t produce any suction after he went in, it should be safe for us too!"

"If you think you’ve got the abilities of ’Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained,’ go on in, we won’t stop you!"

"Exactly, the ’Overturning Water’ big shot is skilled and courageous, but you’d just be looking for trouble. Don’t believe it, just try!"

"So what do we do now? We can’t just stand here like idiots, right? How are we supposed to collect the totem fragments?"

"Collect what! I bet all the fragments have been sucked underground, you want to collect? Just jump in, then climb back out after you’ve gathered them all, how about that?"

"Let’s pretend I didn’t say anything..."

This group of latecomers stood watching the situation within the main city, hoping that the players who got sucked in could escape, so they could rush in and share in the spoils.

However, the silence in the main city made their hearts panic, even ’Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained,’ who had just entered, was out of sight, so no one had the courage to take the risk. Begrudgingly, some teleported back to the Imperial City, not wanting to join the chaos.

...

After entering the Western Monk’s house, Su Ran now had a purpose, heading straight for the old bed in the inner room.

"Strange, if it weren’t for Wan’er’s reminder, I’d never have noticed anything special about this shabby bed. To think there’s a secret passage hidden underneath, how would any normal person notice?"

Su Ran sighed inwardly, casting aside concern for her appearance, she squirmed towards the underside of the bed, only to discover a small teleportation array inside. It flickered with a dim light, having hardly any presence at all, no wonder it wasn’t apparent that there was any mystery beneath the bed from the outside.

"Whoosh!"

After a flash of light, Su Ran found herself in a strange special space, floating in mid-air, looking around. In sight, there was a transparent protective barrier. On the other side of the barrier, the four members of the Smoke Ghost team were chained to four stone pillars, while the Western Monk himself was sitting cross-legged on a stone platform, with his ’Pair of Wings’ wrapped around in front of him as if forming a protective shell around him.

On the ground flowed a black liquid, occasionally emitting black bubbles, making it easy to guess that the liquid contained potent poison and one would need to be well-prepared to defend against it.

As for what the Western Monk was up to, Su Ran had no clue.

"Little master sister, look, ’Overturning Water’ brother is here!"

"Haha, I knew ’Overturning Water’ wouldn’t abandon us!"

"But can ’Overturning Water’ break through this protective barrier? That NPC said that this barrier is indestructible, in ancient times no one could break through this defense, it’s difficult to think we can be rescued!"

In their excitement, Gu Yue poured cold water on them, bringing them back to reality.

"I believe in him."

Creamy Junior spoke with conviction, his gaze unwaveringly fixed on Su Ran, hoping he could perform a miracle.

"Ah, this is the trust in love, truly moving."

Big Smokey sighed deeply, looking at Youtong beside him, "Little Tong, how come I never see you showing this kind of trust towards me?"

"Buzz off. If it hadn’t been for you, would we sisters even need to suffer like this?"

Youtong kicked towards Big Smokey in midair, but due to the restraining chains, she failed to hit him.

"Who would’ve known that the Western Monk, this son of a turtle, would scheme against us? No wonder the Pair of Wings brothers steadfastly refused the mission. I, like a fool, pushed forward, even giving up the martial arts tournament. Thinking about it makes me so mad!"

Big Smokey felt grateful for the chains that imprisoned him for once, sparing him the agony. The more he spoke of the mission, the angrier he became, "This NPC may look human but doesn’t act like one at all!"

"It’s not your fault; no one knew this NPC would plot such a gigantic conspiracy, planning to drag the whole God Race down with him, a total madman! This was also a twist already arranged by the system, just our luck to encounter it. The taste of being used as a pawn is indeed bitter."

Creamy Handsome comforted Big Smokey, signaling him not to blame himself too much. They had already reached this point, and self-blame was useless. Besides, this was just chaos in the Celestial Realm; it had nothing to do with the Human Race and would not affect the guild’s progress.

Even if they were used as sacrificial lambs and killed off, it wouldn’t be a significant loss—at least they wouldn’t be imprisoned here. A blessing in disguise, indeed.

"Hey, do you think if the Western Monk gets interrupted, he might go berserk?"

Youtong raised an eyebrow, suddenly intrigued, "If he does go berserk, could this conspiracy be forcibly halted?"

"Wishful thinking. Let’s first get past this barrier..."

Gu Yue’s voice was laced with worry, harboring little hope for Su Ran.

...

"What on earth happened to you guys? Why are you tied to a pillar?"

Su Ran waved to them, but the screen’s blocking made even his voice inaudible. They hadn’t heard a word Su Ran said; the soundproofing was almost unparalleled in the world.

Judging by the situation at hand, Su Ran could guess the crux of it: this Western Monk comrade definitely had some unspoken agenda. The destruction of the God Totem had the most direct relation to him!

Su Ran had already been here for quite a while and not once did the Western Monk turn around. This showed how much confidence he had in the barrier, exposing his back to Su Ran without worry, quite gutsy indeed!

However, this NPC made a huge mistake thinking he could use this barrier to stop him!

Today, he would teach this NPC a good lesson. Let’s go!

"Whoosh!"

Little Zombie was summoned by Su Ran. As there was poisonous black water flowing below, Little Zombie immediately used its flying skill right after appearing. The skeletal centipede had also transformed into bone armor that attached itself to its body.

"Bouncy, merge!"

Su Ran was aware of the urgency and didn’t waste words, jumping straight to the point. In front of all four, he performed a merging with Little Zombie.

Yuck, why does that sound so awkward?

He wondered if it was his dirty mind or the indescribable nature of the skill, but none of that mattered. As long as the skill worked, that was all that counted. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

"Snap."

In front of the cheated Su Ran, the transparent barrier was like a mere decoration, easily penetrated without any resistance. It couldn’t have been simpler.

It had to be said, Little Zombie’s Unsealing skill was incredibly sharp—usefulness, ten stars! Show-off level, ten stars!
