Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 115: Treasure Hunt - Corpse Hiding Map

"You darned undead, I...I will fight you to death!" The old beggar, upon seeing his child put into a coffin, seemed to have gone mad, frantically charging towards Su Ran with loud cries.

Just then, the Lava Bone Wolf launched itself, knocking the old beggar to the ground. The old man stopped struggling and gave up, with a blank expression and empty eyes. Two drops of muddled tears slipped down his cheeks.

"Sir, you’ve misunderstood!" Su Ran stepped forward quickly, signaling the Lava Bone Wolf to jump away from the old man. He helped the old beggar off the ground and comforted him, "Sir, you might have misunderstood the situation. I apologize if my actions seemed disrespectful. Please believe me, I won’t harm this young boy. The object that seems like a coffin is in fact valuable. It can restore human Qi Blood and heal injuries." freёnovelkiss.com

"Really?" An apparition of hope sparked in the old beggar’s eyes as his soul seemed to regain a sense of focus.

"Every word I said is true." Su Ran answered with a small but definitive smile.

Time crawled by in tense anticipation, making the atmosphere in the room extremely intense.

To be honest, Su Ran wasn’t certain if the coffin could save the young beggar’s life. But he knew that as long as the boy regained his life force, he could suppress his cursed heart and prevent further outbreaks. However, would the healing pace of the coffin exceed the boy’s declining health?

Staring at the coffin while praying silently, Su Ran hoped that the father and son could live a happy life instead of just surviving at the bottom of the Human Race. He wanted them to walk on the surface, under the sun, to lead dignified lives! Of course, this was also Su Ran’s wish for himself. He longed to live a long life like a normal person, having enough time to take care of his parents, to protect her, and enjoy life.

"Crack."

A faint sound rang out, loud in the deafening silence of the room.

It was the coffin!

The old beggar ran to the coffin like a madman, lifted the lid, and saw his child — the young beggar.

A tide of dark energy surged out of the coffin, dispersing into the air. Its vehement flow caused the old beggar, unprepared for such a force, to stumble backward.

The now awake young beggar stumbled out of the coffin, a vacant look in his eyes.

Suddenly, the young beggar was ecstatic. He joyously rushed toward the old beggar, his voice trembling with excitement, "Dad, my legs are healed!"

It was then that Su Ran realized that the coffin’s healing abilities could cure even leg injuries!

"Haha, excellent!" The old beggar laughed and, holding the youth’s hand, came to Su Ran. He sternly told the young beggar, "Remember boy, this is your benefactor. Kneel and bow in gratitude."

With that said, the old man immediately knelt down. The young beggar, seeming to have grasped the situation, knelt down in front of Su Ran.

Su Ran awkwardly shifted to the side and rushed to help the old man up. "Sir, this is unnecessary!"

"Benefactor, I was an old fool. I apologize for my rudeness and insult to you!" The old beggar’s solemn apology was full of regret.

"Big brother, thank you for saving me!" The young beggar began to kowtow deeply.

No matter what, staying alive was the best outcome!

"Go and follow your benefactor into the outside world to broaden your horizons!" The old beggar seiously advised, patting the young beggar’s shoulder.

The young beggar looked at his benefactor with hopeful eyes, his heart full of joy.

"Ding! Congratulations, you have won the loyalty of NPC Dog Egg. Do you wish to accept him as your follower?"

The system notification sounded, prompting Su Ran, who furrowed his brows in response.

"No!"

Choosing ’No’, Su Ran turned towards the old beggar and said seriously, "Nonsense! Sir, have you forgotten my identity? If Dog Egg follows me, he will cut ties with the Human Race!"

"What I want is for Dog Egg to live happily among the Human Race. No intrigues, no survival of the fittest. I don’t want him to join the Undead!" Su Ran looked at Dog Egg, his eyes full of affection, "He is like my little brother, not my follower!"

The old beggar’s face darkened slightly. He knew that his actions were like gambling—gambling with his child’s future.

Dog Egg lowered his head on the side, lost in thought.

Su Ran comforted the old beggar, "Sir, keep this coffin for Dog Egg. It might come in handy in the future. Also, take this and live above ground. It’s better for Dog Egg’s health."

Su Ran pulled out 100 gold coins from his bag and handed them to the old beggar.

"Benefactor, this...this isn’t right!" Even as the old beggar protested, he quickly pocketed the gold coins. In a flash, the coffin also disappeared. The old man’s quickness surprised even Su Ran.

"Ahem, Dad, you...you have such a thick skin." The young beggar blushed, hoping that Su Ran wouldn’t be angry with his father’s behavior.

Su Ran laughed heartily, "Sir, I have another matter to attend to, so I will bid you farewell."

The old beggar and Dog Egg watched Su Ran exit the room, filled with a mix of emotions.

Why couldn’t the Imperial City’s mighty guard be as impressive as this small Undead?!

The skeletal figure walked through the sewers, thrilled that he had not given Dog Egg the Dark Breath. He thought such quest items would only hinder Dog Egg’s opportunity to lead a normal life, which was Su Ran’s deepest desire.

Next, Su Ran pulled out the Corpse Hiding Map, located his position, and headed toward the coordinate in the distance.

The treasure was hidden in the sewers!

After walking for a while, Su Ran awkwardly found himself back in the depths of the sewer. Having already faced its dangers once, he really didn’t fancy venturing into it again.

Peering into the darkness, Su Ran saw several small, beady eyes staring back. He pondered distressedly about how to use the Corpse Hiding Map without triggering these sewer rats who were difficult to manage.

Within the silent sewer, Su Ran walked back and forth, devising a feasible plan.

Suddenly, a small skeleton unintentionally kicked a stone that clinked against a wall.

Su Ran paused, an idea illuminated in his mind!

He vividly remembered that rats were inherently timid. Large noises could easily lead to a rat stampede!

Well then, let’s get a little crazy!

The Bone Soul Ghost Fire in the small skeleton’s eyes started to burn violently. He was commanding the Lava Bone Wolf at his feet to sprint at full speed, smashing towards the sewer wall.

"Bang!"

A loud collision sound echoed across the sewer, shattering the quiet mood and immediately reaching into the dark depths.

"Squeak!" "Squeak!"

The shrill screams of the rats started, signifying another wave. The rat horde, their eyes full of hatred, rushed out, aimed at the Lava Bone Wolf, wishing they could rip it to shreds!
