Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1386 - 1279: Luring the Enemy

"Special treasure?"

Su Ran was startled, he had just figured out that the treasures available for exchange were divided into ordinary and special, and he didn’t expect to encounter a special treasure so quickly. He had to admit, Young Master Fa had some significant skills!

"Yeah, I spent a fortune to get this treasure. If it weren’t for this BOSS, I wouldn’t have been willing to take it out!"

Although Young Master Fa seemed somewhat reluctant, the show-off in his eyes was totally clear to Su Ran.

"Come on, I bet you’re eyeing that group of players, right?"

"Ha-ha, you know me well, Overturning Water, my brother!"

Young Master Fa raised an eyebrow and laughed, "As long as we’re lucky, taking them down won’t be a problem!"

"Wow, that’s some confidence. Just so we’re clear, I won’t be able to take care of so many people when the time comes. If anyone dies, don’t blame me!"

Su Ran made sure to clear himself of responsibility first. That way, he could feel a little less pressured.

"Ha-ha, brother Overturning Water, don’t worry too much. Our lives are in the hands of fate. If we die, there’s no one to blame. As long as you agree, that’s all that matters. If this gamble pays off, the points needed for the special Skill Book should be enough!"

"Holy shit, there’s even a Skill Book among these treasures?"

Su Ran’s interest was piqued, and he eagerly asked, "Can you choose a Skill Book that suits your occupation?"

"Of course, you can. Otherwise, why would it be so expensive? So, are you tempted?"

"What are you waiting for, attack, kick their asses!"

Su Ran excitedly replenished his pet army. Even if he didn’t find the Dream Realm, getting a special Skill Book would make it all worthwhile!

"Ha-ha, so even brother Overturning Water can be so spirited. No wonder you found such a great girlfriend. I’m truly envious!"

While complimenting Su Ran, Young Master Fa also tactfully flattered the Creamy Youngster, killing two birds with one stone.

The Creamy Youngster quite enjoyed Young Master Fa’s remark and smiled at Su Ran, curious to see how he would respond.

To her disappointment, Su Ran didn’t take the bait at all. He didn’t follow up on the conversation, nor did he even glance in her direction. It was hard to tell if he was doing it on purpose or if he was really clueless, which made her feel incredibly irritated. She summoned her Firebird and it soared into the sky.

"Who?"

"Another BOSS spawn? Ha-ha, today really brings double happiness... Eh? That’s not right, there’s someone on the Firebird!"

"No big deal, we’ll still get the exchange points!"

The group of players firing at the Birdman BOSS was taken aback by the sudden appearance of the Firebird. When they realized it was just another player’s pet, they felt somewhat disappointed. How awesome would it be to slaughter two BOSSes at once!

"Send thirty people over to slaughter them and their pets together!"

A player at the very back of the crowd focused on the Firebird above and didn’t notice Su Ran and the others far away. In his view, thirty people were more than enough to handle just one person.

However.

Just then, the Birdman BOSS in midair let out a piercing scream. The sound spread rapidly, hitting the rock walls and echoing into the depths. Immediately after, countless screams erupted from the depths, and the chaotic flapping reached the ears of everyone present.

"Damn it! The BOSS is summoning minions!"

"Blast it. I knew it couldn’t be this easy to kill. Everyone, increase your damage output. Let’s try to take down this BOSS before the minions arrive!"

"Bro Tian, this is tricky! That Birdman is dodging so high in the air, our hit rate is less than thirty percent! If only we had exchanged for a ’No-Fly’ charm earlier, we wouldn’t have to go through this hassle!"

"Cut the chatter, it’s too late for regrets now. Everyone, give it your all. I refuse to believe that two hundred players can’t kill a golden BOSS!"

The player referred to as Bro Tian furrowed his brow, a sense of unease about this Firebird pet inexplicably creeping into his heart. But with the situation being so urgent, he had no time to dwell on it. Having to divide his attention and coordinate on two fronts made commanding the group incredibly difficult.

However, Bro Tian had underestimated the flight speed of those Birdmen. Before they managed to deplete even half the BOSS’s health, a large flock of Birdmen swarmed in, plunging the scene into a chaotic melee.

...

"Shoot, we’re lucky we’re smart. Killing a player poses no danger at all. If we had stayed with the team, we’d probably be dead by now!"

"You said it, there’s definitely that possibility! Who would have thought they’d summon so many Birdmen? Man, there must be over a hundred of them!"

"Let’s kill them slowly, to avoid going back and getting killed. Wait until their battle’s mostly over before returning. We might even be able to pick up some leftovers, hehehe."

"You bastard, you’re always so cunning! Alright, let’s do this... Holy shit! Everybody look!"

The player, still reveling in their luck, hadn’t finished speaking when he unexpectedly spotted Su Ran’s army of pets. Skeletal shield warriors formed a line, and behind their shields, undetected by the hiding players, they stood guard. He said excitedly, "Guys, our luck’s about to turn around. A whole bunch of Undead skeletons just spawned! If we take them down, we’ll get plenty of exchange points. Haha, we’re one step closer to trading for a special treasure!"

Those thirty players, each filled with excitement, did not disturb the Undead skeletons. Instead, they charged straight at the Firebird; in their eyes, monsters spawned would not be taken back by the system, unlike players. If they let him escape, how would they explain it to Bro Tian?

But just as they were about to reach the Firebird, it leisurely flew behind the group of skeletons, hovering in mid-air, waiting for their approach.

"Damn it, he’s looking down on us! Follow him!"

"But what about the skeletons? They’re blocking the way!"

"What else can we do but kill them all!"

A hint of anger flashed in the eyes of the group as they mercilessly attacked the skeletal shield warriors. Dozens of ranged attacks bombarded the skeletons’ ranks with continuous explosions, blasting several skeletons away.

"Haha, low-level creatures are just so fragile, coming out is like giving away experience points. Not a threat at all!"

Tasting initial victory, the thirty players didn’t give the skeletons a moment to react. They unleashed their skills in rapid succession, aiming to take out the skeletons in one fell swoop, then deal with the guy on the Firebird.

But then.

The players, engrossed in their attack, didn’t notice a black-robed player mounted on a dog, wielding a scythe, sneaking up from behind. A purple flame was thrown, arcing beautifully and landing among the players.

"Boom!"

Netherworld Purple Fire exploded, engulfing the densely packed group. Su Ran had ensnared them all in one fell swoop.

"Haha, brother Overturning Water, well done! This ruse of luring the enemy really worked. Now it’s our turn to take the stage!"

Young Master Fa laughed heartily three times and led his six companions into the fray. Even the cream of the crop, who had been idle in the air, didn’t fall behind. He commanded the Firebird to charge forward, attacking the players who were struggling in the flames.

No surprises occurred. Under their full power attack, these players didn’t even make it out of the sea of fire before they were dead as dodos.

In their first encounter, Su Ran’s side achieved a resounding victory.
