Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1381 - 1276: Encountered Someone Familiar

"Who are you?"

Dai Xuan momentarily abandoned the Evil Spirit in front of him and turned to look at the uninvited guest.

Red Gold Cloud Tiger issued a low growl from its throat, its gaze fixed warily on the chubby man, its body slightly bowed, giving the impression that it might pounce at any moment.

Surrounding Dai Xuan were about twenty well-equipped players who quickly turned their spears around, forming an encircling stance and moving a few steps toward the chubby man, creating substantial psychological pressure on him.

"Leader Dai, please don’t be angry," the chubby man hurriedly expressed his intentions, fearing that Dai Xuan might lash out unpredictably. "I mean no harm; I just came to report something. Then I’ll leave immediately, and I certainly won’t covet the opportunities here."

"Speak quickly, and leave immediately after!" Dai Xuan had a slight impression of this chubby player—who had a good relationship with someone from his guild and whom he had once seen in the Dark Abyss—but they had never conversed. This chap was too distinctive-looking, hard to forget after just one glance.

"Leader Dai, Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained is here!"

"What?"

Dai Xuan perked up upon hearing this and asked incredulously, "Really?"

"Truer than pearls! I, the chubby man, have never spoken deceit!"

Seeing Dai Xuan’s doubt, the chubby man grew anxious, his tone becoming hurried, "I just fought him. There was a team of fifty-six, and all fell at his hands!"

"So, you mean to say he has already collected fifty-six exchange points just by arriving? You’re really foolish; more than fifty of you couldn’t handle him alone, you deserved to die!"

Dai Xuan’s gaze on the chubby man grew colder. "Do you know how many people he brought this time?"

"Just, just one woman, riding a fiery bird pet with a white veil over her face."

The chubby man looked ashamed, but eager for revenge, he no longer cared and told Dai Xuan everything he knew.

"Hmm... it must be the Creamy Dude; as long as it’s not Misty Drizzle, it’s easy to deal with."

Dai Xuan paused for a moment then slightly nodded, "The news you brought is indeed valuable, consider it a merit. By the way, are you interested in joining our Dancing Demons guild? The benefits are excellent, and I won’t make things difficult for you."

"That..." freewёbnoνel.com

The chubby man hesitated. Joining Dancing Demons would mean finding a backer, but he would lose his status as a local tyrant. Moreover, if it weren’t for Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, he wouldn’t want to come here and depend on Dai Xuan’s mood!

"Forget it, I was just mentioning it casually; let’s leave it at that."

Seeing the chubby man’s hesitation, Dai Xuan couldn’t help but sneer and turned to walk towards the imprisoned Evil Spirit, "You can go, no need to escort you out!"

...

"Overturning Water, do you think we might encounter Evil Spirits here?"

Creamy Dude followed closely behind Su Ran, his eyes cautiously scanning the surroundings, terrified that he might get startled by an Evil Spirit in this tense situation.

"Why worry so much? There are more people in this space than monsters. The Evil Spirit’s hatred has already shifted elsewhere; it wouldn’t have waited until now. Wan’er, in this special space, we need to be wary not of monsters, but of other players!"

Su Ran hit the nail on the head, "Killing here isn’t just legal; it also brings rewards. Don’t trust anyone’s words, not even acquaintances!"

"Not even you?"

Creamy Dude gave Su Ran a teasing look, waiting for him to continue.

"Uh, I mean you can’t trust acquaintances, what’s our relationship? It doesn’t count in this case."

"What... what is our relationship?"

"..."

Su Ran wished he could slap himself. Talking without thinking, now what? How was he supposed to answer?

He dug his own grave by jumping into it, wasn’t that just asking for embarrassment?

Luckily,

the system came to Su Ran’s rescue at the critical moment and gave him a way out. From a distance, the sound of fierce fighting could be heard, and from the clash of weapons alone, it was clear this battle was extremely intense.

"There’s danger ahead, you wait here, I’ll go check it out."

With that, Su Ran naturally used the Luck Concealment skill and vanished from the sight of the pretty boy and raced away on his dog.

"Coward! Dropping the ball at the critical moment, isn’t that just great?"

The pretty boy was full of grievances, thinking why was it so hard to break through this barrier? Was it made of silicone?

...

Su Ran, in his invisible state, hadn’t gone far. He turned his head and glanced in the direction of the pretty boy, sighing to himself, "Ah, if Wan’er knew her Little Brother Su was like ’Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained,’ how heartbroken would she be?"

Wan’er falling deeper was something Su Ran did not want to see. He even felt an urge to disclose everything once he got better, to come clean with her about everything, whether it exposed him or led to hatred, he would let her decide.

"Hmm?"

Putting aside those jumbled thoughts, Su Ran stealthily moved forward and finally saw that there were only ten gamers fighting nearly thirty Birdmen. The situation for the team of players looked quite grim.

Su Ran was surprised to find that the player protected behind the others was someone he knew; it was Young Master Fa, the Ice Mage he had befriended at Demonic Treasure Mountain.

"To think we’d meet here, our connection really is deep."

Su Ran shook his head and smiled, planning to lend them a hand. Young Master Fa was generous and straightforward, never put on airs; his only flaw was solving everything with money, which Su Ran didn’t mind. That was enough.

He first checked the attributes of these Birdmen, uncovering they were all level 40 minor monsters with mediocre skills; their numbers were their advantage, suppressing Young Master Fa and his team. Breaking this situation wouldn’t be hard.

After making up his mind, Su Ran urged his dog to the rear of the Birdmen, pulled out an Air-restriction Stone, and waited for the ideal moment to strike.

...

"Young Master Fa, what do we do? The brothers can barely hold on!"

"Yes, there are too many Birdmen; we can’t handle them. If this continues, we’ll all be wiped out!"

"Young Master Fa, you should use that talisman. With that, we still might stand a chance!"

The nine men were struggling hard and had already thought of retreating. If it wasn’t for Young Master Fa holding on, they would have given up long ago—not hanging on till now!

"This Wild Thunder Talisman uses up too many points. If it’s not necessary, don’t use it. Those of you with beast cards, throw your beast cards. I’ll reimburse the full amount!"

Protected by everyone, Young Master Fa was in no danger and thus under no pressure. He gathered his ice element power and shouted, "These are just minor monsters. If we perform well, we can handle them. Everyone, keep your eyes peeled, go all out! Don’t worry if you die, everyone gets 300 gold coins as compensation!"

"Ha ha, Young Master Fa is so generous. I’ll risk my life to kill a few more Birdmen!"

"Third bro, don’t sound so tragic, it’s not decided yet who will win or lose. Flaming Lion, appear!"

Since Young Master Fa had spoken, a warrior player on the outskirts revealed his trump card, and soon after, a majestic lion appeared on the battlefield.
