Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 500 - 485 Huge Opportunity

"During the time I speak, if any dares to interrupt, they will be punished by thunder. Life and death are predestined, don’t blame me for not warning you in advance, and marring our harmony."

The old voice became stringent, discouraging anyone from wanting to challenge him.

However, inevitably, there were a few audacious players, disregarding the NPC old man’s threat, sneered and ranted at the confined space, "Stop pretending to be mysterious, who are you trying to scare? We are not afraid of you! We are in thousands here. Show yourself if you dare!"

"Do you think you are Lei Zhenzi? Who do you think you are, talking about thunder punishment? Why don’t you fly to the sky?"

"Ha-ha-ha, timid as a mouse yet so defiant, I’ve seen many like you!"

However, the other players avoided these audacious ones like the plague, fearing a vicarious lightning attack.

"Only the three of you dare to confront me? That’s too few, too few!"

The voice emerged from nowhere, with a tinge of regret. "Since the rules are set, they must be obeyed. Thunder, come forth!"

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

Three lightning bolts boomed from the black clouds, aiming straight for the heads of the three players.

"Such high speed!"

Players were horrified, they couldn’t track the path of the lightning attack with their eyes. By the time they reacted, the three had already turned into charcoal and hit the ground, dead.

Well, they learned their lesson at level 5, at a pretty hefty cost!

Seeing this, players retreated, staying put with their mouths shut, afraid to make a sound. For a moment, the space was so quiet one could hear a pin drop.

"All of you, a total of 30,000 were attracted by me. You are both lucky and unlucky."

The aged voice echoed again, reverberating in every corner of this confined space.

"I rallied you all here to find a worthy human to entrust an item tantamount to the Supreme Artifact. This would be used to exterminate the minions of the Demon World and make a name for the Human Race!"

"Whoosh!"

"An item that is equal in stature the Supreme Artifact? Did I hear that right?"

"Senior, I attended elementary school for ten years and have been a class prefect for nine. My foundational skills are solid and even the teachers couldn’t find fault in me. If you’re looking for someone as excellent as I am, save yourself the trouble. Directly hand it to me!"

"Senior, give it to me, let’s sell it and split the money!"

"Both of you have no shame, step aside! Big Brother Senior~I’m a 19-year-old girl who can warm, push, and blow. Most importantly, I’m single..."

"Crack!"

The female player was instantly electrocuted and became a vengeful spirit.

"Tsk, tsk, must have been too much even for Senior to bear. Serves her right to be struck by lightning!"

Players whispered in hushed tones, careful not to provoke the irate old man.

"Silence!"

A burly man in the crowd suddenly shouted, making all nearby players jump. He coughed, gathered all the players’ attention on him, and then said with dignity, "Senior prefers tranquillity. You all should show respect to him! Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Nan Qiang. I’m privileged to rank in the top ten of the Earthly List of the Human Race. If the senior prefers powerful successors, please consider me. I assure you, I can unleash the potential of the Supreme Artifact to its extreme, making enormous contributions to the future of the Human Race!"

"Ah? This person is Nan Qiang? He’s the top shield warrior on the God-Demon Continent!"

"This is the end, with him here, our chances of getting the Supreme Artifact are even slimmer!"

"We’ve heard that Nan Qiang and Bei Diao, two high-ranked Earthly List fighters, are inseparable and weird. We’ve never seen them apart. Bei Diao is most likely here too!"

When players looked at Nan Qiang, their eyes were filled with concern. After all, a player on the Earthly List has formidable abilities that they could not match!

"Nan Qiang, you just can’t control your temper. How many times have I told you? There are many talented people on the God-Demon Continent, and it’s not our turn to show off yet. Look at us now, we’ve become targets, sigh. The lead bird is always the most unfortunate!"

A player appearing like a scholar in white parted the crowd and came in front of Nan Qiang, complaining.

"Heh-heh, Bei Diao, as long as you’re here, what am I afraid of?!"

Nan Qiang scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.

"As expected, the top fighter of the Earthly List, Bei Diao, is also here! It’s all over; we don’t even have to think about getting the Supreme Artifact!"

"Are those two in a romantic relationship? Not that I’ve heard anything bad about them."

"No matter how strong they are, they are just players. We outnumber them by few, why should we be afraid of just two players?"

The players started whispering to each other again. The way they looked at this two-man team on the Earthly List was filled with hostility. They huddled together in groups, undoubtedly plotting something. However, it was quite evident that these two had been isolated by the players.

"Ahem."

The old voice timely broke the players’ discussion, silencing the entire space.

"I understand your eagerness for this item. However, treasures have their own spirits, and the chosen ones need Destiny. What I am now is a guide, creating this hard-fought opportunity for you."

"Here is a cave dwelling I have spent over ten thousand years constructing. Inside its walls, several special tools are hidden. This unique tool is called the ’Shattered Weapon’. Pay close attention, whoever gets it, it means they are destined. Just hold this tool, and you’ll be automatically transported to the second layer. Distill what I have told you, and act accordingly."

"Shattered Weapon?!"

Su Ran’s heart was startled when he heard the words. He was overjoyed since he already owned this item, leaving him with nothing to worry about. He looked at the other players around, trying to figure out how many powerful opponents were hidden here.

"Shattered Weapon? It’s already shattered, what’s so special about it?!"

"Hidden in the walls? Is this a blatant call to dig? But I don’t know how to mine!"

"High price for a hoe! Anyone interested, just direct trade!"

"Ha-ha-ha, I had foreseen this, and I brought a silver hoe with me. Everyone step aside, or you’ll be splashed with dirt!"

A player of the Mage profession had a complacent look on his face. He flaunted the shining silver hoe in his hand and tried to walk through the crowd towards the wall exuberantly.

"Hey mate, are you selling this hoe?"

"Sell your stupid head, I am a chosen one. You can’t bribe me with fruits and nuts!"

The Mage player looked down on others with a disdainful look and wanted to leave with his hoe.

"Chosen one? I’ll show you chosen one. Guys, attack!"

As soon as the words were spoken, dozens of players rushed towards the arrogant Mage.
