Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 484 - 473 Ice Bead

"Brother He, think that kid has died yet? Based on what you said, if you can’t even resist the extreme cold there, I refuse to believe that kid was unaffected!"

Doubt covered Taciturn’s face as he asked the question. He didn’t want to make a pointless trip there. After all, the Ancient Wasteland was a high-level map, fraught with danger. He could die at any moment. If he didn’t hate that jerk so much, he wouldn’t have gotten involved in this messy situation! ƒreewebɳovel.com

"I already sent someone to guard the safe zone in Imperial City. Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained is easy to recognize, so there’s no chance he slipped past us. If I didn’t get any news, it would mean that the guy probably isn’t dead yet!"

Crane That Doesn’t Dance spoke with an expressionless face, finding it hard to believe that he had died in such a suffocatingly cold death. What he couldn’t accept even more was the fact that the kid could outlast him in terms of endurance!

You have to understand, he was deemed one of the top players on the Heavenly List in the God-Demon Continent. How could he, with all his abilities, lose to an unknown magician player? The humiliation was unbearable!

What was tolerable, and what was not!

There was a significant reason Crane That Doesn’t Dance didn’t confide in Taciturn, and that was the fruit over the frozen lake! He was sunbathing half-dead in the desert, just waiting for this fruit to appear. Who would have thought that the dishonest man would mess things up, causing him to lose 510 gold coins in vain, and he had to abandon all his previous efforts. Who would have thought that he would see this naturally formed treasure again over the frozen lake, truly, life is full of surprises!

This was another main reason why Crane That Doesn’t Dance called for Taciturn instead of his brothers.

"Brother He, since you think so highly of me, I won’t beat around the bush. I have one sole purpose, that kid’s life, I will take it!"

Taciturn said with righteous indignation, already driven to the brink of madness by Su Ran. No matter how it’s done, he’s bound to kill him!

"Suit yourself."

Crane That Doesn’t Dance replied indifferently. He didn’t care how Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained died, he simply focused on the result, the process didn’t matter. Moreover, considering the severe environment there, the first priority should be survival!

...

The scene shifted back to the Ancient Wasteland, to the still-standing cloaked player.

"Just look at my memory, I nearly forgot about the stone I just got!"

Su Ran slapped his head, realizing his memory was deteriorating day by day, which reinforced his plan to log off to sleep at night.

However, Su Ran would not choose to pull out the chunk of ice in front of the lake. What if it suddenly released a blast of freezing air again? That would definitely not be a joke!

Following the guidance on the high-level map, Su Ran quickly headed towards the marked coordinates, planning to find a relatively safe place to scrutinize this stone.

However, what Su Ran did not notice was that his direction was exactly where the fruit had disappeared. As for what was going to happen next, no one could predict.

Su Ran continued to tread on air, crossing over the mirror-like lake surface, and heading rapidly towards the deeper parts of the Ancient Wasteland.

"This place is filled with treacherous terrains, dense shrubs, it must be utterly dangerous."

Su Ran carefully observed the terrain in the depths of the Ancient Wasteland, always feeling that there might be monsters lurking somewhere, just waiting for him to walk right into their trap. Su Ran, at this point, was on high alert. There was no helping it, he was only level 31, facing a high-level map filled with level 40 to 50 monsters. He could only cautiously explore the terrain, anyone else in his situation would also be in a pinch.

Su Ran was starting to miss the times when the Sand Puppet was guiding the way. While it led the way, he didn’t encounter any monsters, and it was all clear. He didn’t have to worry about this and that, such a pity. If only he knew that the boss would only drop this, he would have kept it as a guide.

But, now it’s too late for regrets. Fortunately, Su Ran possessed the Treading on Air Technique. His safety was relatively guaranteed, even if he encountered danger, he could maintain an invincible position. Of course, except for aerial forces.

"This is the place!"

After much effort, Su Ran finally found an open area, and without hesitation, he jumped down from the air. He grabbed the ice chunk, about the size of a basketball, and threw it onto the ground without any hesitation. Su Ran was afraid that this thing would release a freezing air again and freeze him, that would be tragic.

Fortunately, nothing unusual happened to the ice chunk, and it just laid peacefully on the ground, allowing Su Ran to figure it out.

When dealing with such a situation, Su Ran’s approach was quite simple and straightforward; taking out his novice hoe and directly started working on it, no hesitation!

"Bang! Bang!"

To Su Ran, this novice hoe was a magical ice-breaking tool. A few hoe hits later, the seemingly indestructible piece of ice shattered into pieces. Su Ran picked up the deep-blue stone with a sense of anticipation and checked its properties.

"Sssss..."

Seeing the properties of the Ice Bead, how could Su Ran not realize that this unremarkable bead was actually one of the top ten ice treasures from ancient times!

As for why this bead was sealed, Su Ran knew it must be closely related to that fruit!

Just thinking about that fruit gives Su Ran a headache. He couldn’t catch such a slippery thing! The crucial point was, where on earth had it flown to?!

However, this would not affect Su Ran’s good mood. With this single-target skill, Ice Arrow, Su Ran had another attack option! What thrilled Su Ran even more was the fourth skill, Underwater Breathing!

Bear in mind, this was an extremely practical divine skill, without any time restrictions. For certain underwater terrains, it was comparable to a divine technique!

"Hahaha, what an auspicious start!"

Su Ran laughed heartily. He didn’t expect that his first venture into the Ancient Wasteland would bring him such a big surprise. This made Su Ran even more hopeful about his upcoming adventures.

"Let’s go, Demonic Treasure Mountain!"

After saying this with great might, Su Ran took off, heading towards the coordinates indicated on the high-level map.

At the same time.

"Wow, Brother He, how did you even find such a secluded place?"

A look of awe was on Taciturn’s face as he surveyed the surroundings. This was his first time stepping into such a high-level map. You should know, he had always been leveling up in the Demon Tower and was somewhat simple-minded.

"There are quite a few entrances to the Ancient Wasteland, this is just one of them!"

Crane That Doesn’t Dance felt that Taciturn at the moment was nothing more than a garrulous country bumpkin. He had been talking non-stop all the way, making Crane That Doesn’t Dance feel immensely annoyed, even regretting inviting him along.
