Online Game: Crazy Skeleton
Chapter 325 - 325 324

325: 324 325: 324 “Don’t worry, I’m not the reckless type.

If I’ve chosen to go, it means I’m fully confident.

Trust me.

I’m doing this to complete that mission, which you can’t help with.”

Su Ran’s voice was hoarse, but there was an undeniable certainty in his tone.

“You…fine, I don’t care anymore.

If you die, you die.

It’s not like you’re anyone to me!”

The male idol, unable to argue against him, stormed off without saying another word to Su Ran.

“Wait for my good news!”

Su Ran temporarily parted ways with the team, crushed his Town Recall Scroll and returned to his territory, Skeleton Village.

After all, his lands were closer to Demon Tower!

Without any hesitation, Su Ran journeyed alone through the Dark Swamp once he left his territory.

“A Dark Bone Lizard?”

Su Ran spotted a Dark Bone Lizard lazily munching on grass.

Normally, he would’ve killed it without a second thought, but he was short on time and passed the creature, heading south towards his destination, the Demon Tower.

Su Ran’s actions were not impulsive, but rather a thoughtful calculation.

Since the Tiger Supreme guild members were scouring the globe for him, their headquarters must have been virtually empty.

It was the perfect opportunity to fish in troubled waters, take the treasure map, and dig up the floating tomb on the Demon Tower’s fifth floor!

Su Ran didn’t call the male idol—not because of the mission but because he wouldn’t be able to enter the fifth floor!

After all, many players’ levels weren’t high yet, and gear that hid level attributes hadn’t appeared.

It was the optimal time to deal with the tomb; otherwise, things could change!

“Beep beep beep~”

Just then, his friend messaging notification rang.

Su Ran was slightly taken aback and saw it was a message from Big Blood Bull.

“Big bro, thanks, thanks!”

“What’s up?”

“The mission reward you gave me—I got a Skill Book after completing the task, and the skill…is just too insane!”

From the lines of text, Su Ran could feel Big Blood Bull’s overwhelming excitement.

“Did you learn Blood Attack?”

Su Ran asked with confusion.

The only skill that could excite him this much was Blood Attack.

As his clone also engaged in bloody combat, he was quite familiar with the technique.

“How’d you know?”

“Believe me if I tell you I’ve got clairvoyance?”

Su Ran chuckled and was genuinely happy for him learning the Blood Attack skill, “Congratulations, your class has ascended.”

“Not really, I still can’t gauge its power yet.

After all, I don’t have much health!”

“Quit showing off, I can hear your excitement through your words!

Alright, I have a mission to finish.

Talk later if nothing else!”

“Understood, understood.”

After crossing the Dark Swamp, Su Ran arrived at the towering Demon Tower.

His emotions were heightened this time.

He had been inside the Demon Tower several times, and each visit, despite its dangers, had brought him substantial rewards.

Seizing the opportunity when no one was around, Su Ran got his three little skeletons to stand guard while he recalled his Dark Bone Bear.

He retracted his Illusion Demon robe, revealing the original skeleton underneath—oh no, there was still a little zombie hanging from his shoulder blade…

Su Ran quickly caught the little zombie, ignoring its resistance, and flung it straight into the Pet Space.

Enter, Demon Tower!

“Whoosh!”

“Huh?

Monsters respawned!”

“That’s a stroke of luck, the monsters respawned right after we finished killing them!”

“This Demon Tower really is a grinding paradise!”

Upon hearing these players’ comments, Su Ran was stunned.

He hastily scanned his surroundings only to find that the entire first floor of the Demon Tower was empty with not a single creature in sight.

In other words, his arrival was akin to walking into the line of fire…

Damn it, why did they have to wipe out everything like this?!

My plan to sneak onto the second floor is ruined…

Just my luck!

Observing more closely, Su Ran noticed around seven or eight players dashing in his direction.

These were all new faces, not a single one was familiar to him.

Uh-oh!

His heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that his foray was bound to fail from the get-go, and he would be exposed on the first floor?!

Seeing the approaching players, Su Ran speedily ordered his three little skeletons to meet them head on.

After all, these were level 28 skeletons and could at least buy him some time!

Meanwhile, he gritted his teeth and slowly moved towards the second floor of the Demon Tower, hoping to enter it before they attacked.

It didn’t take long for the players to engage with the three skeletons, and the atmosphere on the floor once again became tense.

“What the heck, why are these skeletons so strong now?

Their damage has increased significantly!”

One of the players exclaimed in disbelief.

He had killed countless first-level skeletons, but he had never seen one as formidable as these.

“Their health and defense have also increased a lot!

Could these skeletons be rare mutant creatures?”

The other players were extremely excited.

Ordinary skeletons would have been killed by a single blow from them.

But now, after an entire round of battle, this skeleton was still energetic and powerful!

“Hey, it’s a good thing Wooden Fish isn’t here.

If we find some top-tier equipment, we can split it evenly.

Let’s keep this a secret from him!”

They hadn’t even finished killing yet, but they were already planning on splitting the spoils…

Su Ran didn’t care what they did to the three little skeletons.

His focus was on slowly moving towards the second floor, hoping to sneak into it before they killed off the skeletons.

“Hey, we missed one skeleton!

I’ll take care of that one.

Don’t leave me out if these three drop something good!”

One of the warrior-players noticed that Su Ran seemed to be ‘moving aimlessly’.

He decided to draw the aggro of this skeleton, and if he could kill it, that would be even better!

Seeing the warrior-players charging at him, Su Ran broke out in a nervous sweat.

Should he rush into the second floor?

Or should he summon the Bone Bear for a life-and-death battle?

Either way, it would expose him!

Cursed warrior, why are they bothering him when he hasn’t done anything to them!

As he gauged the distance to the teleportation array on the second floor, he mentally spent every second looking for the safest course of action.

Almost instantly, Su Ran decided on the strategy: he would take the hits head-on.

After all, any player leveling on the first floor couldn’t be too high in level.

His 64 defense points wouldn’t let him get killed by a single blow from this player.

He silently prayed that this attacking warrior-player’s attack wasn’t too high, giving him some time to play along.

“Argh!

Take this!”

The warrior player, after getting close to Su Ran, used his signature skill, the Jump Cut!

Su Ran forced himself not to dodge, involuntarily taking the fierce attack.

Using this opportunity, he vigorously leaped backward, making it look as if he had been blasted away, leaving no room for doubt in the minds of the players in front of him.

“Bang!” “-96”

Phew, the damage was less than a hundred.

It was still within his tolerable range!

As Su Ran fell to the ground, he continually calculated the remaining distance to the teleportation array on the second floor.

“What the hell, when did my attack become so powerful?

I was even able to knock off this mutant skeleton.

That’s just too brutal!”

The warrior player could hardly believe that he could deliver such a vicious attack.

But he knew that he had to take this chance to attack more; if not, it would be a disservice to that last hit of his!

“Bang!” “-89”

Before Su Ran could get up, the warrior player attacked him once more, causing the skeleton to be sent flying yet again.

Deliberately, Su Ran ended up considerably closer to the teleportation array on the second floor.
