Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1543 - 1387: The Anomaly of the Black Tiger

"Oh my god, this is ridiculous, right?"

In front of Su Ran, there was a large amount of hair and plenty of black tiger feces, the foul smell making him reluctant to step further.

"It’s really dirty, this black tiger is definitely a macho man, can’t live without a female around!"

Su Ran couldn’t help but complain, he tried using the Treading on Air Technique, and surprise, surprise—in the belly of this East Mountain, there was no effect limiting flight, which allowed him to fly up smoothly. However, a new problem arose: among so much hair, which one was the black tiger’s whisker? He couldn’t tell at all!

"Damn, such severe hair loss, how am I supposed to find it?"

Enduring the nausea, Su Ran rummaged through the piles of hair, trying to find that distinct whisker, but it was really difficult.

He understood that the style of a black tiger’s whisker was definitely different from ordinary hair, but with so much hair there, he couldn’t manage without half a day’s effort!

And he had less than a minute left in his merger state, after which he wouldn’t be able to move at all, turning into a fish on the chopping board, which was not what Su Ran hoped to see.

However.

There was just too much hair, and in this limited time, he couldn’t find the whisker at all. In frustration, he tried stuffing the hair into his inventory, but unfortunately, it didn’t work as the hairs were merely decorative items and could not be collected.

"Swoosh!"

The merger state disappeared, and Su Ran was harshly pulled down to the ground, coming into intimate contact with the piles of hair. Luckily, he didn’t touch any black tiger feces, which was a stroke of luck amidst the misfortune.

The little zombie appeared, looking at Su Ran with confusion, not understanding what he was up to, wondering why he lay down as soon as they met.

"Oh right, the hopping isn’t affected by the sucking force, just have it search!"

Hope reignited in Su Ran’s eyes as he instructed the little zombie to start searching below. The poor bone centipede crawled around in the dirty and disordered terrain. Fortunately, since the feces were as hard as rocks, stepping on them wouldn’t cause a mess, somewhat tolerable to look at...

"Bang, bang."

The footsteps of the black tiger approached from far to near, raising Su Ran’s anxiety to the extreme. He hardened his heart and dived into the pile of hair to hide his body. Though stinky, he endured; to suffer is to advance, what’s a bit of smell compared to preserving one’s life!

At this moment, Su Ran was extremely grateful that he did not have a gastrointestinal system, otherwise, he would have vomited bile...

"Hmm?"

The little zombie tilted its head looking at Su Ran, not understanding what he was trying to do. It felt very amusing, and after merging with the bone centipede, it imitated Su Ran and started burrowing through the pile of hair, thoroughly enjoying itself.

It didn’t perceive any danger approaching, flinging the hair everywhere, its naive expression resembled a four or five-year-old child and looked quite adorable.

"Huff, huff!"

The black tiger, resisting the terrible sucking force, though able to walk, was very exhausted. Moreover, after traveling such a long distance, it had almost reached the point where it could hardly breathe.

Upon returning to its lair, it saw the messed up scene, hair and dung balls flying everywhere, instantly filled with rage, its tiger eyes fixated on the little zombie, growling as it moved forward.

"Hmm?"

The little zombie tilted its head towards this hostile black tiger, a bit confused about where it might have offended it. However, despite being a BOSS-level fierce beast, the black tiger was too restricted in this terrain and with its skinny body, it failed to display any royal tiger’s dignity.

The little zombie didn’t take the hostility from the black tiger seriously at all. It hopped into the air, extended one hand, and the bone centipede instantly transformed into a bone whip, lashing towards the black tiger’s head from mid-air.

"Swoosh!"

Under the terrible suction, the strike of the bone whip was extraordinarily powerful. A phantom flashed, and the whip fiercely struck at the head of the black tiger.

A pure blue shield appeared on the black tiger, blocking the fierce whip strike. Unexpectedly, the black tiger showed no signs of retaliation. Its tiger eyes stared intently at the small zombie in the air, the murderous intent in its eyes gradually fading, being replaced by a look of excitement.

Suddenly, it made an unusual move, squatting on the ground, putting its hands together, and bowing to the small zombie as if in worship, sending a signal of goodwill.

"Hm?"

Seeing that the black tiger did not fight, the small zombie tilted its head in confusion, unclear about the situation, and thus stopped its attack, staring at the black tiger.

Su Ran had been hiding in the fur pile for a long time, feeling that the outside world was eerily quiet. Not a single roar, not even a fart was heard. Could it be... that the battle had ended so quickly?

Had it gone off the rails?

Or was it that the black tiger was already on the verge of death, and the small zombie found an opportunity to exploit?

No, if it had defeated the boss, there would be an experience prompt, which clearly wasn’t the case as I guessed!

And for the black tiger to instant kill the small zombie, that was even less likely. Not to mention the small zombie’s defense and health, the advantage of speed in this space alone was enough to trouble the black tiger. Judging by the current situation, it looked like the small zombie was completely dominating the black tiger, but surely there couldn’t be no sound at all?

This was really strange!

Su Ran’s curiosity gradually overcame his logic. Not feeling reassured, he waited another two minutes before quietly peeking out from the fur pile. He could hardly believe the scene before him: a zombie and a tiger staring at each other with affectionate eyes, a brewing atmosphere of ambiguity.

What was the situation?

Damn, could it be the Soul Bewilderment skill coming into play?

If it could even bewilder this mission boss, this skill was really powerful!

(Soul Bewilderment - a certain chance to control targets for one’s own use, can control up to three targets, lasting for one hour, players excluded.)

Just as Su Ran was starting to get used to the rhythm, the black tiger spotted his bright shining skull. Fiery fierceness returned to its tiger eyes, and it let out a deep, muffled growl from its throat, slowly walking towards Su Ran.

Damn, what was this situation now?

The bewitched black tiger was actually showing hostility towards him?

Had it really become so bold and audacious? Was this a rebellion?!

At this moment, Su Ran couldn’t move; he couldn’t even dodge. Saying he wasn’t nervous was a lie, so he quickly commanded the small zombie to signal it to stop the black tiger.

The small zombie shook its head with a ’hmm hmm hmm’, immediately lowering its stance and whipping its bone whip toward the black tiger below, with a fierce whoosh, powerfully striking the back of the black tiger.

This time the blue shield did not appear, and the black tiger silently endured the harsh blow, a red mark appearing very distinctly on its back.

At this, Su Ran became even more puzzled. He couldn’t understand the small zombie’s actions, had the Soul Bewilderment skill been revised? Did it need to be whipped to work now?

Oh my, that’s really masochistic!
