Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 447 - 440: Kicked into a Special Space

"Alright, Daoist, I must take my leave now,"

Han Siying stood up decisively. She cast her gaze towards Su Ran, complicated—all-encapsulating, "Overturning Water, I hope you can set aside all distractions and do your best to complete this task. Also, I wish you all the best, may you return fully laden."

Su Ran felt his skin crawl. He was not accustomed to Han Siying’s soft voice. He would prefer it if she was cold and icy towards him!

After saying her piece, Han Siying turned and left without any hesitation--unfettered and free.

"Lad, you can tell me now, right? How is the Evolution Elixir?"

The moment the crimson door closed, Daoist Wang eagerly turned to Su Ran and asked. His previous seriousness had disappeared.

"I’ve hidden it like you instructed. We’ll deal with it when we find the Nine Heavens God Water," Su Ran casually replied. Telling an NPC about real-world stuff was like playing a lute for a cow.

Daoist Wang stared at Su Ran intently as if he could see through him. This intense gaze unsettled Su Ran. Instinctively, he adjusted the Illusion Demon robe, concealing himself further. He only felt a little bit better after this.

"When you are fortunate enough to obtain the Nine Heavens God Water, I will...Ah, nevermind—gotta stay quiet, this is forbidden!"

Daoist Wang pointed upward, expressing some helplessness. In the God-Demon Continent, the most formidable entities were not the Lord of Gods and the Lord of Demons, but the void yet ubiquitous Supreme Laws that made one surrender without resistance.

Su Ran was taken aback. A subconscious feeling told him that the information Daoist Wang was about to reveal likely had something to do with Xiao Hei’s full recovery. But why did the system rules also need to tiptoe around this issue?

"I beseech you, Daoist Wang, could you kindly tip me off a bit? Otherwise, I’ll have sleepless nights," he said.

After speaking, Su Ran pulled out a wad of gold coins from his bosom and handed it to Daoist Wang, hoping he would help amidst adhering to the system rules.

"Absolutely not! That would be a defiance of the Supreme Law. It could mean obliteration for me," Daoist Wang countered gravely, not even glancing at the gold coins handed over by Su Ran. The dreaded system rules had cast such a deep shadow even on the highly avaricious Daoist Wang that he managed to resist the allure of gold. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

"Alright, let’s get back on track. I’ll send you to the mission map now. You must remember that in the mission world, cherish your life. When you die here, your level resets, preventing you from taking up the challenge again. And remember: if the mission fails, your memory will be wiped clean. Only successful missions will enable you to retain your complete memory. Of course, once you complete the mission, this single hidden mission will disappear permanently,"

Given his relationship with Su Ran, Daoist Wang shared some helpful advice.

"Level reset?!"

Su Ran exclaimed in shock, then spat out angrily, "Damn it! I’ve been duped by that woman! No wonder she didn’t blink an eye while compensating me generously. So this is why!"

"What’s there to be surprised about? It’s only level 20, right? You’ll level up again soon," Daoist Wang said nonchalantly. He felt the punishment was a bit harsh, but not worth the rage.

Su Ran knew he couldn’t tell Daoist Wang that he was already at level 30. If he got stripped of his eligibility to enter the mission world, that’d be troubling.

But if his level was reset to zero upon mission failure, Su Ran wouldn’t dare attempt diving into it—even though he had the advanced map. In other words, the mission to rescue Little Stone would undoubtedly fail, and the punishment for mission failure was extremely severe!

Adding to Su Ran’s frustration was the inability to abandon the mission since he had signed a contract authenticated by the system with Han Siying!

Well, this was clearly an instance of shooting himself in the foot!

Su Ran found himself in a dilemma—he was stuck between a rock and a hard place, unable to decide.

"As for how to complete the mission, you have to figure it out yourself. Nobody can help you. Kid, I remind you again, cherish your life in the mission world!"

Regardless of Su Ran’s complicated thoughts, Daoist Wang waved his sleeve. A transmission ring emerged and floated before Su Ran, shrouded in flashing stars and revolving around a central vortex. Suddenly, a sucking force emanated from the vortex, moving towards Su Ran.

Su Ran instinctively tried to resist the strong suction force. But before he could react, a strong gust rushed towards him from behind.

"Boom!"

Under the force of the gust and the suction, Su Ran plunged into the vortex like a bullet. The moment he disappeared, the transmission ring dissolved like shattered foam, melding into the air.

"You kid, what a nag! Doesn’t befit a man at all!"

Daoist Wang withdrew his hefty foot, grumbling unsatisfied. He wondered why this lad had such a lean backside that it hurt his foot!

Inside the hidden mission world, the red sun hung high in the sky. The sky was tightly enveloped by a veil of mist that blocked out the sun’s heat, giving a feeling of autumn coolness.

Just then, a shadow appeared out of thin air, thudded onto the ground, breaking the silence.

"Damn that Daoist Wang! He kicked too hard, nearly dislocated my hip!"

Su Ran got up from the ground, rubbing his hip in pain and muttering indignantly.

After surveying the mission world, Su Ran couldn’t hide his joy. As he had anticipated, the concealment skill provided by the Illusion Demon robe came in handy, helping him enter this hidden mission world effortlessly.

The long journey had just started, and the rest was up to his destiny.

Next, Su Ran started summoning his army of pets. After all, there was a grave punishment of level reset upon death; Su Ran couldn’t afford to be careless!

In no time, the Shadowed Bear clone and five Undead Skeletons were summoned by Su Ran. But it felt insufficient. He brought out the Ancient Relic, hoping to summon the strong Primordial Great Snake.

"Eh, what’s wrong?"

Su Ran was surprised to find that the Primordial Great Snake didn’t respond to his call at all; it was as if it were hibernating.

"Could it be due to the residuals from its battle with the Human Emperor’s clone?"

Pondering over it, Su Ran quickly brought the Ancient Relic close to his eyes for inspection.

[Ancient Relic] (Special)

The snake sac of the Primordial Great Snake, made into a relic by its former master and implanted within the body. It can draw the true form of its master’s demise, gradually increasing the Primordial Great Snake’s affection. Once full affection is achieved, it can be controlled to join battles.

Current status: Affection 60/100, cannot summon.

No way, why is the affection down to 60?

Su Ran was puzzled, thinking, could this have something to do with the Primordial Great Snake’s injuries?
