Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1395 - 1288: Exchanging Treasures

"Swish, swish."

The white light from the scroll followed Su Ran’s bone claw, surging into his body. Not even the Illusion Demon’s black robe could block the invasion of the white light. His bones felt numb and stiff, exceedingly uncomfortable. Su Ran was so startled that he planned to withdraw his arm but unexpectedly found that his bone claw seemed to be stuck to the scroll, unable to move.

Damn it!

Su Ran’s mood instantly tensed up. In his mind, he couldn’t help but complain about Young Master Fa. Why didn’t he mention this process beforehand? It put him in a situation without any mental preparation!

However, seeing that his health hadn’t decreased, Su Ran decided to just accept it.

After a good while,

the white light retracted back into the scroll, forming two large characters on it—Undead!

What?!

Su Ran felt like he had been duped. He immediately pulled back his hand, looking at the NPC with a wary expression. If he dared to reveal Su Ran’s biggest secret, then there would be no choice for his buddy but to... forget about the points and just run away!

There was no helping it; the NPC had a sinister appearance, clearly not an easy opponent. To make an enemy out of this fellow was purely seeking death.

"Senior, how could you deceive me? Didn’t we agree on an exchange for points? How can you do this, where is the integrity?"

Su Ran counterattacked, intending to seize control of the conversation and avoid the awkwardness of his identity being exposed.

However,

As soon as he finished speaking, the two characters ’Undead’ transformed into two credit cards—the speed of this turnaround was completely unexpected.

"Hehehe, I didn’t expect to have a surprise bonus..."

The NPC gazed deeply at Su Ran, eyes piercing through the black robe straight to the essence of his soul, making Su Ran involuntarily shudder and feel a chill all over.

"Young hero, your ability to conceal your identity is quite strong. If it wasn’t for this Mind Painting Scroll, even I would have been deceived by you!"

"Senior, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Can I have my credit cards back, please?"

Su Ran decided that if this youngster dared to go back on his word and covet the credit cards, he would immediately file a complaint against him!

"Don’t panic, our conversation can’t be heard by anyone else outside. You, a mere Undead, have quite the nerve—to disguise yourself as Human Race and even dare to infiltrate the territory of our God Race. Do you really think the Celestial Realm is easy to fool?"

Seeing Su Ran’s cautious demeanor, the NPC grinned with laughter, "I thought you were quite the character, but just a few words scared you like this. Truly disappointing! But, as you’re just an Undead, you pose no threat to the God Race, so I couldn’t care less about your affairs!"

"Thank you, senior, for your understanding. This junior will never forget your kindness. Rest assured, I certainly will not do anything inappropriate. It’s just that these credit cards..."

Hearing that the NPC wasn’t going to make trouble for him, Su Ran’s tense mood finally relaxed. The risk of his identity being exposed was avoided, and Su Ran started to see the NPC more and more favorably, like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, exceedingly cordial.

"Haha, still concerned about your credit cards to the very end, huh? Here you go, take them!"

The NPC casually tossed them, and the two credit cards flew towards Su Ran.

Su Ran was in a flurry as he took the points card in his hands, not even noticing when the mystical painting scroll had disappeared. Taking a closer look, one was worth ten thousand, another five thousand, totaling fifteen thousand points acquired—instantly, he felt like he had struck it rich overnight...

"Young hero, your team is quite impressive. You’ve managed to accumulate so many points in such a short time; it seems you haven’t refrained from slaughtering your fellow humans!"

The NPC’s tone was full of mockery, "These humans, for such petty benefits, start killing spree against their own kind, consumed by greed, they’re unlikely to achieve greatness!"

"Anyway, it’s beneath us from the Celestial Realm to discuss such things with an Undead like yourself. Back to the point, you can exchange all of these treasures, of course, you’ll be treated differently—every item’s exchange points will be increased by 50%, for reasons you’re well aware of."

"..."

The NPC’s candid words left Su Ran rather vexed. Facing such an unequal treaty, he could only bear it. There was no other choice, who asked him to be an Undead? The fact that he could exchange at all was a reason to be thankful—what more could he possibly want, a bicycle?

Upon opening the exchange interface, Su Ran discovered that the treasures available for refresh were few and far between. He skipped right over the equipment section and found nothing in the talisman section that caught his eye. Even the Resurrection Talismans were like garbage to him; he had no desire to buy them. As for the Skill Book section, there were two ways to purchase: one was a random draw for 150 points, and the other was a targeted purchase, which required 4500 points.

After the 50% price increase, Su Ran felt his wallet ache.

"Elder, I want to purchase a Skill Book that can only be used by my profession, and also this—the underground palace map for 1500 points."

Su Ran handed over the five-thousand-point card. Having killed players before, he had collected quite a few points cards, and one thousand points were just enough.

"Kid, you’ve got quite the mouth, knowing what to buy and what not. Buying a Skill Book for your Undead profession with 4500 points is a surefire profitable deal!"

The NPC wasn’t surprised at all by Su Ran’s choice; instead, he showed a hint of approval and conjured a giant spinning wheel in the air before continuing, "Though this map marks the coordinates of the palace, it hides a secret. What that secret is will be for you to uncover."

"What?"

Su Ran was taken aback, as he had intended to use the map to prevent getting lost, but he hadn’t expected to stumble upon a secret. Judging by the NPC’s expression, this secret might be quite valuable. Could this be any more coincidental?

"Elder, has no one ever exchanged for this map before?"

"How many people do you think would be willing to spend a thousand points on a map? With that many points, you could get quite a bit of equipment."

The NPC sneered, his disdain for those short-sighted players obvious. Then, pointing to the giant wheel, he said, "I’ve wasted enough words on you, go ahead and spin it. I won’t be here for much longer."

"Thank you for your guidance, elder. I will uncover the secret of the map, and I won’t let it go to waste!"

Su Ran hurriedly placed his hand on the wheel and gave it a forceful push, making it spin rapidly. During this, he didn’t forget to express his determination.

"Remember, what’s yours will eventually be yours. If your fate hasn’t arrived, being too insistent might just lead to a fall from grace."

After the NPC finished speaking, he vanished, leaving behind only the swiftly spinning wheel as proof of his existence.

It wasn’t long before the wheel came to a stop and disappeared into thin air like bubbles, leaving Su Ran with a purple-colored Skill Book in his hand, accompanied by a system notification.

"Ding! Congratulations player ’Skull’, you’ve obtained a special General Skill Book, ’Agility Manipulation’!"

"A special General Skill, haha, those 4500 points were well spent!"

Unable to contain his excitement, Su Ran used Detection Technique to inspect the Skill Book, eager to find out just how awesome this special General Skill was!
