Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1525 - 1375 Fire-Resistant Mask

"Perhaps it’s because you are a member of the God Race, with authentic divine bloodline, that there are numerous restrictions imposed on you in the forbidden land, whereas I, as an outsider, naturally don’t have such concerns."

Su Ran had prepared his explanation beforehand during his journey to avoid being caught off-guard and adding to the awkwardness.

"Is that so?"

Amu God King didn’t know the actual reason and could only accept this absurd explanation.

There was no choice; who allowed the forbidden land to be placed in the Celestial Realm? Being deceived was well deserved.

"Young hero, could you please go down again and check?"

Amu God King was helpless regarding the pit and could only pin his hopes on Su Ran, hoping he could discover valuable clues.

"I definitely won’t go; there’s not even an exit there, and if I were to run back and forth again, I’d die of exhaustion."

Su Ran outright rejected the request from the NPC without a second thought. What a joke, entering the space multiple times would only make him the prime suspect later on, and no explanations would help. He definitely didn’t want to see that situation unfold.

"Senior, I suggest you go down and have a look yourself. While sinking earlier, I saw a flicker of light at the very center, there might be some mystery there."

For the reward, Su Ran unreservedly revealed the method of entering the space to the God King, to prevent him from denying it.

"Really?"

Alerted by Su Ran’s hint, Amu God King was immediately energized, jumped into the pit, and headed straight for that coordinate. After fiddling around for a short while, he disappeared from Su Ran’s sight.

"Nowadays, old people are really rash, aren’t they afraid of being deceived?"

Su Ran muttered, then he remembered something very important—that he didn’t know if the God King had the ability of Instant Movement. This type of NPC probably didn’t have a Teleportation Scroll. If they couldn’t leave the secret room, that would be awkward.

"No way, not seeing him means I can’t complete the task. How annoying, I have to venture in once more!"

Looking at the empty pit, Su Ran understood that delays could cause problems. It was better to complete the task quickly without taking any more risks. With that thought, he stopped hesitating and jumped into the pit once again.

This time, having had experience, he relaxed his body and mind. With a ’plop’, he slid into the special sealed space.

"Crack!"

The moment Su Ran appeared, a bolt of lightning was born out of nowhere, striking viciously on his head, causing a massive amount of damage. Just this one strike seriously injured Su Ran, bringing death closer than ever, leaving him utterly stunned.

"Not good, it’s an ambush!"

For self-preservation, Su Ran immediately pulled out the Heavenly Thunder Pearl, eliminating the lightning damage. Regardless of whether there were more sneak attacks, he grabbed a handful of tomb grass and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing vigorously.

"Crack! Crack!"

Lightning continued to strike in the space, but the targets were not fixed, indicating that the initial ambush was not aimed at him. Following the trajectory of the lightning, Su Ran then noticed that there was a lightning sphere overhead with a faintly discernible figure inside it—undoubtedly Amu God King.

Below, the lightning liquid converged into a long dragon, continuously drilling into the sphere, supplying the lightning energy, making the jumping lightning arcs gradually increase and the emitted lightning becoming much more powerful.

"Can’t be, this guy got his opportunity so quickly?"

Su Ran could clearly understand the current situation; Amu God King was in a mysterious state, and once the lightning sphere disappeared, this NPC was destined to greatly increase in power.

"Ptui, shameless, purely looking down on others! I’ve been here twice and triggered nothing, and he triggers something on his first try? Favoritism!"

At this moment, Su Ran felt frustrated, it was undeniable. Why was it that he only encountered BOSS here, while Amu God King received such premium treatment? The disparity was just too big!

MMP!

Although frustrated, Su Ran did not interrupt this guy’s opportunity. Being bored, he wandered around in the lightning and rain, hoping to stumble upon some luck, in case another opportunity came up which he couldn’t afford to miss.

However.

He had circled around this space who knows how many times and triggered nothing, so he eventually gave up the unrealistic thought and focused on waiting for Amu God King to complete his advancement; finish the task earlier and leave earlier, everyone is busy, wasting time isn’t good!

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the thunderball in the sky finally showed signs of weakening, gradually, the lightning arc merged into Amu God King’s body, until the thunderball disappeared, and Amu God King’s figure was completely visible in Su Ran’s sight.

His wings were coated with a layer of blue lightning, it wasn’t hard to guess the power those wings held, judging from the satisfied expression of the NPC at the time, Su Ran couldn’t help but feel envious.

However, from the changes in Amu God King’s appearance, Su Ran understood—the opportunity this time was attached to the wings, and he didn’t even have a single feather, how could he possibly trigger an opportunity? It seems he had misunderstood the system...

"Young hero, thank you for protecting me. This blessing from the Celestial Realm is all because of you. I can’t thank you enough, thanks a lot."

Amu God King’s gaze towards Su Ran had a trace of gratitude, but even more excitement.

Big favor, can’t thank you enough, thank you...

It seems that his contribution hasn’t reached the ’big favor’ criteria yet, listen to how grating this gratitude sounds.

"You’re welcome, this is what you should be thankful for."

"..."

Amu God King frowned slightly, then relaxed, smiling at Su Ran, "Young hero, you are my lucky star, such difficult tasks were easily completed by you, truly unimaginable. Here is your reward, take care of it."

After saying that, he handed over a black and white mask to Su Ran, followed by the pleasant and melodious system notification sound, which made Su Ran very happy, he had been waiting half a day just for this moment!

"Ding! Congratulations to player ’Skeleton’ for completing the timed mission, finding out the cause of the Thunder Pool disappearance, specially awarded a decorative mask, 10,000 experience points, 300 gold coins, since the mission time-consuming less than two hours, triggering a special reward, Amu God King’s favorability +3000!"

Damn it, what use do I have for your favorability, better to give some gold coins!

Su Ran was not at all interested in such special rewards, he disdainfully regarded this NPC before looking at the special mask in his hand.

[Fire-Resistant Mask] (Special)

Fire Resistance +10

Blazing Fire Divine Curse—has fire-resistant effects, ignores fire damage for three minutes, skill cooldown time for 10 minutes.

"Holy moly, what a good item!"

Su Ran was quite surprised, he had not expected Amu God King to give out such a treasure, truly generous!

"Senior, you’re really too kind, if there are more good deals like this in the future, keep calling me!"

"Well, it turns out that I have another task here, young hero, are you willing to take it?"

"No time, goodbye."
