Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 2315 - 1805: The Demon Returns (Double - )
"We might even get an artifact or a platinum item, President, this rare opportunity shouldn’t be missed!"
"Let’s go!"
Encouraged by his subordinates, Carving Dragon was also tempted, "Avenge our brothers!"
...
Su Ran, hidden in the shadows, was watching an exciting battle scene. He was a bit surprised, not expecting that Carving Dragon, who was prettier than a woman, would have such a fierce side, willing to go against a demon for his subordinates. This was intriguing.
Of course, this was all on the premise that Carving Dragon was unaware of Badongmeng’s demonic identity. If he knew the true nature of this NPC, he would definitely have regrets.
Just as Su Ran was about to leave, he unexpectedly found that the cluster of souls had floated back, circling around the pit, seemingly looking for something.
Su Ran understood in his heart that this guy wouldn’t give up until it acquired the statue’s body.
"Human, come out, I know you are still here!"
"Return my body, return it!!!"
Badongmeng’s angry roar reached Su Ran clearly. He looked at this cluster of souls with a strange expression, thinking that only he could push a demon to this extent.
However, Su Ran didn’t show himself in a hurry. He understood now that Badongmeng without the web was like a tiger without teeth, and its threat had significantly decreased. If it weren’t for the fear of some hidden tricks, he wouldn’t easily spare this demon.
I’ve killed the Human Emperor’s avatar and the Ghost Venerable’s soul, but I’ve never killed a demon soul. I wonder what good things this demon soul might drop...
Of course, this was just a thought. He wasn’t keen to fall out with the demon Badongmeng just yet since his territory still had the demon Gou Dan. If he could provide some help to Gou Dan, that would be good.
"Human, come out quickly..."
The more Badongmeng shouted, the more anxious it became. The longer the time passed, the less likely it seemed that the black-robed human was still around. This also meant that its body would forever be lost to it.
Without a body, how could it retain its demonic title? Even the life-saving web was broken. Now, it was like a wandering ghost with no hope of resurrection.
"Young friend..."
"I, Badongmeng, swear to the highest rules that I will never harm you. Please, come out..."
"Senior, what’s happened to you?"
After Badongmeng made the vow, Su Ran walked up slowly. He had no choice. If he didn’t appear now, this demon might actually start crying.
"Human, I knew you hadn’t left!"
The soul excitedly shot up into the air, circling Su Ran several times before diving back to the ground, giving Su Ran a scare.
"Senior, what’s the matter? Are you trying to pull a fast one?"
Were it not for the vow, Su Ran wouldn’t dare let the demon near him. If it indeed harbored murderous intent, he couldn’t withstand a close attack from a demon and would likely be dead by now.
"No, it’s just that I got dizzy from spinning too much."
Wobbling, the soul floated up, saying excitedly, "Quick, return my body. Only by uniting my soul and body can I possess powerful demonic strength!"
"Senior, it’s not that I can’t return your statue, but you must tell me how to obtain this special reward."
Su Ran was fixated on this matter. After all, the reward was a Divine Secret Elixir, something he absolutely had to acquire. It was a rare opportunity he couldn’t miss!
"This requires me to open a portal and complete the tasks I assign. But before my strength is restored, I cannot open the portal."
The soul was anxiously bobbing up and down, wishing it could dive into Su Ran’s bladder to secure the statue.
"It’s here!"
"Call for backup, don’t let it escape again!"
Due to its exaggerated movements, the soul was finally discovered by people from Close to the Horizon. They excitedly charged forward, not forgetting to call their teammates to join in and corner this soul, preventing its escape.
"Human, quick, time is running out!"
The soul was now at its wit’s end. If the black-robed human didn’t return its body, it would once more become a stray dog. This was a disgrace to the title of a demon, unforgivable, unforgivable!
"Senior, do I look like someone who doesn’t know what’s good for him? Here, I’m giving back your statue, teach them a lesson, let them know the terror of a demon!"
Upon learning the conditions to open the portal, Su Ran didn’t hesitate and returned the statue to Badongmeng. It was the perfect opportunity to have it deal with the Close to the Horizon guild.
"Thank you, human!"
After Badongmeng sincerely expressed gratitude, the soul merged into the statue.
Then, the statue burst into light, which quickly receded as it stood up from the ground, nodding at Su Ran before marching heavily towards the group of players.
NPCs are indeed polite!
Su Ran’s expression was peculiar. Not only did the demon not blame him for taking its body, but it also thanked him. Cultured people had such manners!
"Boom boom boom!"
The statue’s running speed increased, exhibiting the momentum of a thousand charging horses, and the ground rumbled under its footsteps. This was simply too exaggerated.
From the statue’s performance, Su Ran knew that this was a genuine demon. This group of players were in for a tough time.
"Hahaha, this soul is amusing. Does it think it’s invincible after getting into a statue?"
"It fell into our trap, perfect. Let’s retreat while advancing, let it come in further so we can gang up on it!"
"Good idea! Withdraw!"
"President Carving Dragon, come kill this fool... er, no, come kill this fool of a bird!"
...
As the players deliberately retreated, they drew Badongmeng into the crowd, taking a flanking formation and charging at the statue.
"Brothers, good luck and chicken for dinner tonight!"
"President Carving Dragon said that whoever takes down this lousy statue will receive a silver item as a reward!"
"Wow, the president is awesome!"
The players were fueled with enthusiasm, yelling as they charged at the seemingly clumsy statue.
"Humans, you all will die; none of you will escape!"
Badongmeng allowed itself to be lured into the crowd. Seeing the opportunity ready, it unleashed havoc, massacring through the players.
The outcome wasn’t hard to guess. Badongmeng was like a tiger entering a herd of sheep, and the players couldn’t withstand its onslaught. Within ten minutes, many lay dead or wounded, beaten out of encirclement.
"Sir, a misunderstanding, it’s all a misunderstanding, please stop!"
Carving Dragon, watching the demon’s unmatched mighty stance and the death toll piling up, was scared out of his wits. He didn’t dare stand against it, surrendering on the spot.
Unfortunately, Badongmeng ignored him, continuing its massacre, and several more died at its hands.
Facing the relentless demon, the players fled in all directions, fearful of being caught by this executioner, feeling as pathetic as possible. As long as they could save their lives, anything was acceptable!
"Sir, we’ve learned a painful lesson, please stop now!"
While evading the demon’s attacks, Carving Dragon kept pleading. As the president of the Close to the Horizon guild, he couldn’t easily leave and kept apologizing, hoping for leniency.
"Humans, for the woodsman’s sake, I’ll spare you, but those who perished are the price you pay!" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Considering the connection between the woodsman and the player, Badongmeng finally stopped, turned to head back towards Su Ran, and said, "Gather your forces and follow me!"
"Phew..."
At this moment, Carving Dragon exhaled deeply, his white robes drenched in cold sweat, his handsome, pale face devoid of color. This brush with death nearly claimed his life!
In just ten minutes or so, he had lost over five hundred men, a loss so significant he found it hard to accept. Regret after regret surged through his heart. If he had known how terrifying the statue was, even if he had ten lives, he wouldn’t have dared to oppose this soul!
Alas, there is no medicine for regret. Even if he regretted it now, it was too late.
The demon had given orders, and he dared not defy them. He gathered around four hundred remaining subordinates, stabilized their morale, and only then followed in the demon’s direction.
