Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1376 - 1272: The Atmosphere is Subtle

The party of five quickly left the former abode of the western monk and had traveled a considerable distance before Su Ran explained to his teammates everything they had witnessed. Whether the crack had erupted with sucking force again, whether those unlucky bastards had crawled out from it, none of that was known.

"No wonder there isn’t a single player in this main city, I thought the game was updating!"

Youtong’s confusion vanished from her eyes, and she developed a dread of the crack, almost too fearful to approach it.

"Based on the time, that Evil Spirit boss should have appeared by now, right? How can it dawdle like this?"

The milk-skinned lad stared at the house, expecting the scene he had imagined to unfold, but the silence was eerily oppressive.

As soon as he finished speaking.

"Boom!"

A thunderous explosion tore the house apart, and the Evil Spirit soared into the sky. Its vicious gaze and bloodthirsty expression revealed its fury. After sweeping its gaze across the main city, it finally saw Su Ran and the others. It immediately let out a Roar, and countless black bees gushed out from beneath the earth, hurtling towards the direction of the party of five.

"Little sister, you really are a jinx! Run!!!"

Youtong’s complexion changed dramatically; without waiting for the milk-skinned lad to direct, she bolted towards the city outskirts as fast as she could, fearing Death’s gaze from behind. Her pace quickly surpassed her own limits, but before she made it thirty meters, she slowed down, gasping for air, holding her side, "I can’t, I got a stitch."

"..."

Seeing this, Su Ran and the others almost pulled their backs out. Because of Youtong, they all abandoned the thought of fleeing and instead squeezed into the nearest house, hoping to avoid the sudden attack of the swarm of black bees.

"I’m sorry, it’s my fault for holding us back..."

Watching the dense swarm of black bees in the sky, terror drained the color from Youtong’s face. She wasn’t sure if the house could withstand the attack from the bees, let alone escape from the Evil Spirit’s violent demolition, meaning their massacre was only a matter of time, and there was no way to break the hatred lock-on!

With this in mind, Youtong made up her mind, her voice grave, "I’ll go out and lure them away, you all use the Town Recall Scroll to go back, if we delay any further, none of us will escape!"

"Are you out of your mind? You already got a stitch and still think you can lure them away?"

The heavy smoker finally regained his composure, grabbed Youtong’s arm, feeling that it was time for him, a man, to step forward and said seriously, "Leave the lure to me; a young lady like you shouldn’t be adding to the chaos!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked—they couldn’t believe the way the heavy smoker’s flirting skills had advanced.

However.

Just as the heavy smoker was about to head out, the ground violently shook, and a rumbling sound rose from beneath. He took the opportunity to retract his foot, peering through the window to discern what was happening outside.

Through the main city-spanning crevasse, a terrifying suction force emerged once more, drawing in all the black bees, even the formidable Evil Spirit was not spared, being pulled into the rift.

As the suction ceased, the entire main city once more fell into silence.

"Haha, we’re saved!"

The heavy smoker had been ready to die; it was unimaginable that the system would suddenly play such a trick, solving their crisis. This was truly an enormous stroke of luck!

The enmity value lifted, and the Town Recall Scrolls were once again functional, meaning they could return to the Human Race’s Imperial City anytime, no longer having to live in fear here.

"Ghost, thank you."

Youtong, moved by the heavy smoker’s actions, leaned in and kissed him on the cheek, then shyly covered her face and teleported away from the place.

"Ah?"

Happiness arrived so suddenly that the heavy smoker was a bit overwhelmed, freezing on the spot, foolishly grinning nonstop.

"Still not going to chase?"

Gu Yue laughed and kicked Roar, genuinely happy for them.

"Hehe, sure, sure."

Roar couldn’t care about anything else, not when a lifetime event was at stake. After hastily replying, he also used a Town Recall Scroll.

Creamy Idol glanced subtly at Su Ran, noticing she was still intently observing the rift, and let out a faint sigh of resignation.

As an outsider, Gu Yue of course understood the subtleties between the two, smirking non-stop with pursed lips.

"Little Yue, you go back first, I have something to ask Overturning Water."

Creamy Idol couldn’t hold back any longer. She wanted to get a clear answer from Overturning Water, to put her own mind at ease once and for all.

"Sister Idol, go for it!"

Gu Yue waved her hand, considerately teleporting back to the Human Imperial City.

"Overturning Water."

In the room, only Su Ran and Creamy Idol were left. Stung by Youtong’s provocation, Creamy Idol went all out. She took a deep breath, putting aside a girl’s reserve, and mustered the courage to speak, "I want to ask you something, and I hope you will tell me the truth."

"Wan’er, come and see, there’s something odd about that rift."

Su Ran sensed trouble and quickly shifted the topic. If she hadn’t wanted the Sun God Bird’s set so badly, she would have left long ago and wouldn’t have waited until now!

"All those things aren’t important. We’ve known each other for so long, can you... just tell me your opinion of me?"

Creamy Idol’s cheeks flushed, even her white veil seemed dyed a pale red, her eyes burning as she waited for Su Ran’s reply.

Love needed to be grasped firmly in one’s hands, missing this chance could mean missing out for a lifetime.

The sudden appearance of Fine Rain created a huge sense of crisis for her. A woman’s intuition is always accurate, and she couldn’t set her mind at ease.

"Why bring this up all of a sudden?"

Su Ran clearly felt Wan’er’s intentions, his heart in reality beginning to race. This level of nervousness was even more intense than when he fought against Evil Spirits.

"Don’t change the subject, I want to hear it."

Having opened her heart, Creamy Idol was not going to let this opportunity slip by.

"Wan’er, you have a very good character. You’re kind-hearted, with a strong sense of responsibility, and your capabilities are quite outstanding. You’ve organized the guild so well, I truly admire you."

Su Ran felt sweat starting to form on his forehead, afraid to meet Wan’er’s heated gaze, "I’m thinking of taking a risk in the rift, will you come with me?"

"We can delay that. I have another question for you. What is your relationship with Fine Rain?"

Hearing Su Ran’s words of praise, Creamy Idol bloomed into a smile, like a breathtakingly beautiful flower. Unfortunately, hidden by the white veil, Su Ran couldn’t appreciate it.

Whether it was in capability or in looks, Fine Rain was certainly much better than herself, which was precisely Creamy Idol’s concern. She wanted to hear the true answer from Su Ran’s mouth.

"Fine Rain? Why ask about her?"

Su Ran was a bit puzzled, what was this woman thinking? With so many women in the world, why did she have to get involved with her?
