Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1468 - 1335: Soul Locking Collar

"Senior, is your reward related to the Sun God Bird?"

Su Ran suddenly became unsettled; after all, he had already gathered the Sun God Bird’s Pet Egg, blood, and heart, only lacking the Sun Soul Stone. Now he obtained information about the divine bird, which surprised him and added a touch of anticipation.

If he could get some extra parts of the Sun God Bird, wouldn’t his pet’s strength soar to new heights?

By then, with the Left Thunder Dragon, Right Divine Bird, holding a mechanical pig in his arms, Wang Cai beneath him, Bounce Bounce, Sand Puppet, Plague Mud Monster, and Strange Demons in front, a Poisonous Jiao behind, Bone Eagles above, and rows of Undead Skeletons standing at the side, wow, such a grand pet assembly—simply invincible!

If there’s another combat competition now, and he displayed all these pets, he’d definitely stun his opponents!

Too bad, the Darknight Thunder Dragon’s level is too low, not to mention the Sun God Bird, which hasn’t even hatched yet—can only rely on reputation to scare people...

The embryonic form of the pet assembly is formed; the rest is just a matter of time. As long as the level is up there, even the NPC in front of him would be a worthwhile opponent!

"What, you know of the legendary Sun God Bird?"

"What’s it to you, is knowing about the Sun God Bird a crime?"

Su Ran heard the surprise in Sang Ze’s tone and rolled his eyes dismissively, psh, what, am I just a lowly skeleton in your eyes, looking down on me?

"Senior, the Sun God Bird is the God Race’s Guardian Beast. It’d be hard not to know about it!"

"Do you know what the Guardian Beast of your Demon Race is?"

"I really don’t know that."

Su Ran didn’t feel embarrassed; he hadn’t reached the Sky Demon Domain in the game yet. When that time comes, he’ll naturally find out.

Wait a second.

Does the Five-clawed Bone Dragon King count as a Guardian Beast?

This is the super Guardian Beast he crafted for his own domain. Once its strength is fully restored, even if it’s not a Guardian Beast, it should still be a worthy contender!

"Hypocrite."

Sang Ze snorted coldly, "This Sun God Bird is indeed a divine creature, but it has long since fallen. The God Race has always wanted to revive this divine bird, preserving its blood and heart to this day. I have a pair of Divine Bird’s Wings here, to serve as your reward for this task, but..."

Divine Bird’s Wings?

Wow, what an unexpected joy!

Su Ran was about to get excited but the word "but" quelled his excitement—he knew it wouldn’t be that simple, with pitfalls awaiting him.

"Please continue, Senior."

Su Ran was determined to get these divine wings, no matter how difficult the task, he must get them!

"I want you to destroy the Sun God Bird’s blood and heart, to shatter the God Race’s hope of reviving the divine bird! These wings will generate a bloodline guide; as long as they can get close to a compatible bloodline, they will respond."

What?

Su Ran was initially startled, his expression grew weird. The blood and heart are currently on him, this task couldn’t be any simpler—it’s essentially already done before even starting, like a freebie question!

"Senior, is this... the task you’re assigning?"

Su Ran suppressed his laughter, posing as serious as he asked. This task could be accomplished in an instant, and he absolutely couldn’t let the other guy sense anything amiss, or else if the task difficulty increased, that would be too joyous for words.

"No, this is just an additional condition. As long as you agree, the task rewards can be given to you first."

"..."

Just an additional condition? Su Ran was somewhat hesitant to continue the conversation. If the additional condition is already this demanding, just how difficult will the upcoming task be?

To get me to take this task, this NPC really seems to be going all out, first a Universal Manual, then Divine Bird’s Wings, the rewards are so generous they feel unreal. So here comes the question, is the task of Hell Level difficulty?

"Elder, could you tell me what the task is?"

"You cowardly Undead, how can you be entrusted with important tasks!"

Sang Ze was completely impatient now, "Will you take this task or not, beating around the bush, you don’t sound like a man at all!"

"Elder, as you know, even if I wanted to be a man, I can’t do it anymore."

Su Ran glanced at his empty crotch and sighed.

These wings are related to the potential of the Sun God Bird pet; they must be obtained. Under such circumstances, there was no choice but to take a gamble. Thinking this, Su Ran’s eyes became incredibly determined, and he said seriously, "Elder, in order to help you get rid of this Soul Locking prison sooner, I’ll take this task! Even if it’s a desperate situation, I will do my best to complete it!"

"If only you had been this straightforward earlier, don’t forget what I told you, take it!"

Said Sang Ze as he threw the wings and a collar out, tossing them close to Su Ran, signaling him to pick them up.

As expected.

Before Su Ran even got close to the wings, he noticed that the black wings were emitting a crimson glow. This was exactly as Sang Ze had said, a reaction from sensing the same blood lineage.

Fortunately, this NPC couldn’t see it, which meant Su Ran could avoid the risk of exposure. He went straight up, picked up the wings, and automatically completed the additional condition without even a system prompt.

When he saw the collar, he was quite surprised; this NPC was too generous, wasn’t he? Even the rewards came with a buy one, get one free deal? How polite!

The moment Su Ran touched the collar, the familiar voice of the system rang in his ear.

"Ding! Congratulations to the player Skeleton for getting a hidden task, Evil Spirit Locking Soul!"

Evil Spirit Locking Soul, what the hell is this?

Su Ran looked at the collar doubtfully in his hand, then discovered the name of the collar was Soul Locking Collar, a special item designed to restrain Evil Spirits.

Regarding the Evil Spirit Locking Soul task, after carefully reading it, Su Ran finally understood that Sang Ze intended for him to lock the soul of the Beast Soul Evil Spirit and bring it back. The task duration was one month, and if he failed to complete it within this time, the wings of the Sun God Bird would be forcibly retrieved, level -5, and a random skill would be removed.

This punishment for failure... so harsh!

"Elder, don’t blame me for asking, but isn’t this task a bit strange? The Beast Soul Evil Spirit has become someone else’s pet, it could even be reborn if it died, the Soul Locking Collar shouldn’t work on it at all!"

"This Soul Locking Collar is the bane of souls, how could it not work! Every soul in the world has a unique soul imprint. If the soul is locked, even a member of the God Race would have a hard time rescuing it, let alone a mere pet."

Feeling that Su Ran had accepted the task, the tone of Sang Ze’s speech became much kinder, "Undead warrior, remember, you have to severely injure the Beast Soul Evil Spirit and put its soul in a weakened state. Only then will the chances of a successful Soul Locking greatly increase. Bring it back to me, and the task will be considered complete."

Su Ran felt that the system was making trouble, having already become someone’s pet and still issuing a pet retrieval mission, so sinister!

However, if the target is Dai Xuan, acting the villain this once might not be too bad...

"By the way, Elder, how many of these collars do you have on you? I want to buy a few for self-defense; price is not an issue."

Su Ran wasn’t about to let go of such a special treasure, which could be used against players’ pets, it would be just too awesome!
