Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 87: Bristle Worm Escapes
Chapter 87: Chapter 87: Bristle Worm Escapes
The golden Suspended Charm Coffin began to rapidly spin, moving faster and faster.
Suddenly, the dazzling golden light ebbed away, forming a grey Pet Egg suspended in the air. The Suspended Charm Coffin astonishingly transformed into a black, ruler-shaped weapon, blending into the pet egg and then disappearing.
"Ding! Congratulations to player Skeleton on obtaining a Pet Egg!"
My God, such a huge coffin actually transformed into a Pet Egg!
Su Ran quickly moved forward and held the Pet Egg that was floating in mid-air. Upon touching it, he felt it was incredibly cold. There was no sign of life within its pitch-black shell; it was as if it was a stillborn.
Su Ran didn’t care about this. If it was a ghost, it naturally would’ve been dead. But how could a formidable ghost end up as a Pet Egg? What was this kind of ridiculous setting?
Pet Egg (Mysterious) (Bound to player: Skeleton)
?????
Note: The egg needs ’death energy’ to germinate; The seal can be removed.
Uh, premature celebration. Breaking the seal requires ’death energy,’ and without removing the seal, this Pet Egg can’t be used. Sigh, even a powerful pet that is unable to hatch is only an ornament. With all excitement gone, Su Ran casually tossed the pet egg into the Storage Box.
Only then did Su Ran notice that a teleportation circle had appeared in the place where the Suspended Charm Coffin had vanished. Su Ran didn’t dare to use it recklessly, as he didn’t know where it led. Instead, he focused on his skeleton avatar, the Bone Worm.
The Bone Worm continued to burrow its way into the second floor of the Demon Tower, heading straight for the third level at top speed. In the process, the regenerated skeleton warriors on the second floor began to attack it. Even the advanced players nearby were attracted by the Bone Worm, so they neglected leveling and rushed directly towards this strange creature.
Having dodged the attacks of the skeleton soldiers, the Bone Worm stormed into the third level of the Demon Tower. A group of players followed closely, among them were the Fire Mage and the player wielding a big spear.
The third layer of the Demon Tower was a dim space where a dozen skeleton warriors roamed, eerily clutching their bone sickles and patrolling around the bone pillars. Their giant sickles held a chilling sharpness that could make one’s soul tremble. As high-ranked skeletons, they exuded a frightening aura that even the undead legion commanders would feel, making the atmosphere of the entire Demon Tower sombre and oppressive.
Without pausing, the Bone Worm sprinted towards the teleportation circle ahead.
Suddenly-
"Bang!"
The Bone Worm was disoriented and hit heavily on top of the teleportation circle then slowly wobbled in place.
It turned out that the teleportation circle was sealed, emitting blue light every now and then as electric sparks flickered.
"Ding, player Skeleton’s avatar level is below 40 and is not allowed to enter the fourth floor of the Demon Tower."
Damn it, there’s even a level restriction!
However, at about the same time, the players had also entered this layer.
"Gosh, the skeleton warriors on this floor already respawned!" An elite player from the Tiger Supreme guild, Taciturn, his eyes full of excitement.
Taciturn, the 75th ranking tester, was a Berserker.
"Haha, folks, let’s get to killing!"
Under Taciturn’s leadership, the players’ squads began to clear the skeleton warriors. Meanwhile, they had long forgotten about the Bone Worm.
However, Fire Mage and the Spearman charged at the Bone Worm. The Fire Mage started to gather fire-elemental magic around him, and his wand began to constantly emit heat. At the same time, the Spearman executed a Jump Cut towards this strange Bone Worm.
Fortunately, by the time the Bone Worm’s dizziness wore off, it was able to dodge the Spearman’s Jump Cut. But before it could react, it was sent flying by a fireball from the Fire Mage and landed in the midst of several skeleton warriors.
Su Ran looked on with pity at the bone grub who was unable to dodge the numerous bone-scythe blades slashing against it. Flashes of light would momentarily illuminate the scene as the grubby little creature was knocked into the air for another round, this time landing at Taciturn’s feet.
With a single swift kick, Taciturn sent the bone grub flying once again.
The Spearman and the Fire Mage quickly charged towards the defenseless bone grub, seizing the opportunity to strike as the creature staggered and struggled to recover.
"Damn it, how much blood does this bug have? Why won’t it die!" the explosively tempered Fire Mage cursed incessantly.
"Old Fire, think about it, the more powerful this critter, the better the loot will be!" The Spearman, exhilarated by the prospect of a large haul, rushed at the bone grub with his weapon drawn.
Seeing the pitiful bone grub being batted around, a surge of anger welled up within Su Ran. He directed the grub to quickly get up and scurry towards the innermost part of the floor.
The Fire Mage, having concentrated his energy into a fireball, did not release the spell, fearing that it would accidentally hit the skeleton soldiers nearby and incite their wrath.
However, soon after, an astounding scene unfolded.
The bone grub had attracted over a dozen skeleton soldiers who rushed towards the Fire Mage.
"Holy shit, this bone grub is insane!" The Spearman exclaimed in shock. For the first time, he experienced a monster luring other monsters, but the sheer number of skeleton soldiers it brought was overwhelming!
The Spearman was the first to holler and bolt from the horrifying scene, quickly followed by the hot-tempered Fire Mage who also chickened out and fled back to the second-floor space of the Demon Tower.
"What’s going on?" Taciturn, who was fiercely engaged with the skeleton soldiers, was puzzled as he saw the Spearman and the Fire Mage running for their lives.
"Taciturn, look!" One of the players in the team gave Taciturn a nudge, indicating the dire situation they were in.
Taciturn turned to look and was immediately stunned.
"Damn, the grub brought over so many skeleton soldiers! Run for it!" Without bothering with the nearly defeated skeleton soldier next to him, Taciturn warned his teammates and escaped the floor.
Su Ran sniggered, thinking, you guys wanted to kill my bone grub, didn’t you? Why are you running now?
However, Su Ran’s amusement was short-lived as the numerous skeleton soldiers were chasing his bone grub. Not being able to ascend to the fourth floor or descend to the second...
Uh-oh, skeletal soldiers, could we just shake hands and make peace?
While directing the bone grub to avoid the attacks from the dozen skeleton soldiers, Su Ran was also studying the layout of the floor.
"The Skeletal Pillar!"
Su Ran’s heart leapt with joy as he noticed the skeletal pillar standing in the middle. That’s it!
The bone grub immediately mustered its strength and launched itself onto the skeletal pillar, just in time before the skeleton soldiers could attack. The skeletal pillar was about two meters in diameter and was studded with various Beast Clan skulls and bones in a haphazard manner. The bone grub found a safe perch on one of the skulls.
Suddenly.
A flash of light.
Unexpectedly, a skeleton soldier launched a long-range attack. The separated aura of the blade aimed directly at the bone grub perched on the skeletal pillar. Caught off guard, the bone grub was blown away and involuntarily flew towards the top of the pillar. Refusing to accept such a fate, the bone grub managed to bite onto a protruding rib in mid-air, hanging from the top of the pillar.
Finally, the bone grub cautiously wriggled back onto the skeletal pillar and a feeling of relief washed over Su Ran.
That was close!
If the bone grub had carelessly fallen earlier, it would have been chopped into bone dust by the bone scythes... freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
