Chapter 1409: Chapter 1298: Heart of the Sun God Bird (Two-in-One)
"Never mind that now, let’s utilize these corpse waste first!"
The corpses scattered all over the ground excited Su Ran inexplicably, and he whipped out the Corpse Soul Pot, beginning to greedily collect those delicious souls.
While Su Ran was busily engaged, all the corpses suddenly turned into white light and disappeared from the hall, leaving only a teleportation array sitting forlornly in the middle of the hall.
"The longer we delay, the more dangerous it becomes; we can’t stay here!"
Su Ran understood the principle that delay would lead to trouble. Due to Han Siying’s involvement, Dai Xuan had suffered a huge setback and wouldn’t easily give up. It probably wouldn’t be long before he regrouped and organized his forces to return here. Any further delay would definitely spell trouble!
With that in mind, he rushed straight to the teleportation array and teleported into a special space.
"Whoosh!"
With a flash of light that disappeared as quickly as it appeared, Su Ran found himself in an unfamiliar terrain—an icy snow world. As for that so-called special treasure exchange NPC, there was no trace of anyone.
Could it be...
this NPC also had a gimmick of random teleportation?
If that was the case, then he was in trouble. How long would he have to wait here?
Unwilling to give up, Su Ran flew up to mid-air to survey every inch of the icy landscape below, hoping to spot the NPC. But the sight that greeted him stopped him cold.
In the distance, Dai Xuan and Shuxin were naturally fighting fiercely, and even the Evil Spirit Beast was closely matched in a life and death struggle with the Bone Devouring Beast, the intensity of which was exhilarating. This astonishing scene greatly surprised Su Ran.
Given that Dai Xuan was a top fighter on the Earthly List, and coupled with the powerful Beast Soul Evil Spirit, he still couldn’t defeat a female player!
This Han Siying, what kind of opportunities had she come across to improve so drastically? It really proved the old saying, "Absence makes the growth more profound."
Su Ran was not in the mood to watch their love-hate battle; seizing the opportunity to exchange the treasures swiftly was the priority!
He avoided disturbing the two and circled the area, finally locating the treasure-hoarding NPC in an unassuming corner.
"Senior, senior?"
Su Ran jumped in front of the NPC only to find the guy with his eyes closed—it was unclear whether he was meditating or had overslept, but calling him had no effect.
"Senior, I want to exchange some treasures."
The NPC still didn’t wake up, not even fluttering his eyelids.
"Ah, who dropped some coins?"
"Your sister fell into the river."
"Your wife has run off with someone."
"..."
While the NPC didn’t wake, his expression grew noticeably darker. Realizing something was amiss, Su Ran immediately shut his mouth.
He realized that his method of awakening didn’t meet the system’s requirements and would only serve to anger the NPC if he continued.
With no other choice, Su Ran opened the omnipotent social network to seek help from a friend.
"Lucky me, Young Master Fa has just revived online, I’ll ask him."
Su Ran opened Young Master Fa’s chat box, first calming his emotions before recounting all the events that occurred in the palace, omitting how he escaped the prison.
"That despicable scoundrel Dai Xuan, he deserves bad luck!"
Young Master Fa was still fuming, but when he learned that all of Dai Xuan’s men were wiped out, he couldn’t contain his joy, instantly becoming cheerful, "Shuxin should have finished off Dai Xuan as well—it’s a shame about my fifty thousand points, might as well have fed them to a dog!"
"I’ll help you avenge this when I get the chance. Hey, by the way, why do you think this special NPC is meditating with his eyes closed? I’ve been shouting, but he won’t wake up; I’ve never seen such a weird NPC before!"
Su brought the conversation back to the matter at hand, not having the luxury of time to chat leisurely with Young Master Fa—they needed to exchange the treasures as soon as possible!
"Damn, you found that NPC so quickly? Even such a remote corner?"
Young Master Fa’s tone was filled with surprise, pausing briefly before explaining, "This guy has a peculiar habit. Every time someone trades with him, he takes a ten-minute rest, during which no one can wake him unless... you have a significant treasure, then this NPC might make an exception."
"Oh, I see, thanks."
After closing the friend interface, Su Ran promptly took out the Red Marrow Gem.
"Whoosh."
Before Su Ran could even speak, the NPC’s eyes snapped open, glowing brightly like incandescent bulbs, dazzling.
"Senior, could you give a heads-up before opening your eyes? It’s quite frightening, I even thought you were playing dead!"
Su Ran clutched his chest and feigned being scared.
Then, he realized that he didn’t even have a heart—what was the use in clutching?
"My wife ran off with someone, why can’t I play dead?"
It was clear from this that the NPC took Su Ran’s casual words quite to heart and disregarded him, focusing solely on the fiery red gem.
"Cough cough, just now I saw you were meditating with closed eyes, I was just joking, don’t take it seriously."
Su Ran awkwardly scratched his head, "I came to exchange some treasures, and I was a bit anxious, so I had to resort to that tactic."
"Where did you get this gem?"
The NPC didn’t stoop to argue with Su Ran, "Do you have any more gems?"
"Other ones?"
Su Ran was momentarily stunned, quickly realizing that the NPC was asking about other gems. Unfortunately, he only had access to one undeveloped Death Passage; the rest had already been claimed by others.
