Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 512 - 496: Strange Demon Bone Cauldron

"Butting in, am I?"

Nan Qiang sneered, dismissing the conceited Young Master Fa. He raised an eyebrow at Su Ran, "Little brother, let’s add each other as friends first. The situation’s unstable right now. We’ll chat more after we get out of here!"

"Alright."

Su Ran and Nan Qiang exchanged friend requests, and Nan Qiang, laughing heartily, returned to his place.

"Bro, I sincerely invite you to join us. In the whole Human Race Imperial City, who doesn’t know about my sincerity and trustworthiness? If you’re not reassured, we can sign a contract, verified by the system!"

Seeing Nan Qiang making friends with Su Ran first, Young Master Fa clearly became anxious.

"I..."

Before Su Ran could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a skeleton in a straw cape floating above them.

"Select a Soul Tripod master and follow him. They will be your only way to earn the qualification. Remember, you all share fortunes together and losses together. Make your decisions wisely."

At those words, Su Ran instinctively turned to look behind him and received a shock. Dozens of players were looking at him with expectant and friendly eyes, their intentions obvious. Comparatively, the other nine players were standing alone, in sharp contrast to his situation.

Su Ran suddenly realized something. If these hundreds of players didn’t rebel, then those following him could potentially grow into hundreds! Who would dare oppose his team then?

However, every advantage has its disadvantage. When he reached the last level, his competitors would inevitably increase by dozens!

He needed to devise a plan so these players get eliminated first...

"Now, you ten lucky ones, take out the special item — the ’Broken Weapon’, and put it into your respective Soul Tripods. If you can smelt this weapon into a liquid, it suggests that you are the destined ones and therefore, have the qualification to enter the next level."

"Sir, how much refining skill do we need to melt this item?"

The player who entered this space first asked the question with puzzlement. However, his question was what everyone wanted to ask.

"No skill is needed. The destined ones always find a way. Of course, the higher your refining skill, the greater the success rate."

The skeleton in the cloak glanced at the unsettled player and took the time to give an elaborate reply before sitting back in a meditative pose, floating in mid-air.

"The higher the refining skill, the greater the success rate? Oh no, I’m only a Level 1 refiner. What should I do?"

The concerned player became somewhat panicked. When he saw that the players beside him had already started refining, he became even more anxious.

As for the hooked nose player, he possessed a high-ranked Soul Tripod and, naturally, his refining skill couldn’t be low. He looked extremely confident at that moment. The moment the Skeleton Boss finished speaking, he did not hesitate to put his broken weapon into the Soul Tripod, starting to refine methodically.

The rest of the players also started their refining skill test one after another. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Meanwhile, around Su Ran, the dozens of new followers had already surrounded him, looking urgently at him and asking:

"Bro, how good are your refining skills?"

"Mediocre."

Su Ran spoke truthfully. He did learn the Demon World Bone Transformation, but he barely used it. Even he doubted whether he could refine this broken weapon.

"Buddy, you’re not going to make it with that mentality. The futures of all of us here depend on you; you can’t fail!"

"That’s right. I have dozens of refining materials here. I’ll give them all to you. Get your refining skills up to Level 2 first!"

"Yes, this friend is right. First, train up your refining skills, so the success rate will be a little higher. I have a lot of refining materials here as well, here you go!"

"Sharpening your weapon just before battle is better than nothing. Here are my refining materials; I give them all to you. Good luck!"

The players hurriedly offered all the refining materials they carried to Su Ran, especially Young Master Fa, who piled up a small mountain in an attempt to please Su Ran, arousing exclamations from the other players.

"Oh wow, that’s a move? Not bad, what an unexpected gain!"

Looking at the sheer amount of refining materials piled up in front of him, Su Ran shamelessly grabbed all of them for himself, focusing his efforts to increase his pathetic refining skill level.

He opened the lid of the cauldron and stuffed in the refining materials without a thought until it was full. He couldn’t help it, there were plenty of materials. Who cared for moderation!

However,

The refining materials brought by the players weren’t even remotely related to bone artifacts, and Su Ran only knew how to refine bones and make bone artifacts with his Demon World Bone Transformation. But he wasn’t worried about not being able to refine these materials, thanks to the mysterious Bone Cauldron beneath his feet that had regained its original appearance!

"Strange Demon Bone Cauldron" (Dark Gold) (Can evolve)

Bone Artifact Refining, success rate +10%.

Skill one: Transformation — Can refine all types of materials into bone artifacts.

Skill two: Soul Absorption — Can absorb the Cauldron Soul to strengthen itself, with a chance of evolving.

Skill three: Shape Transformation — put in sufficient materials to summon a Strange Demon, lasting 30 minutes. The skill cooldown is 1 hour. During this period, the Strange Demon Bone Cauldron cannot be used.

Ha-ha, a Dark Gold Level Strange Demon Bone Cauldron that can evolve!

No wonder that shady merchant had his eyes on my broken cauldron all the time. So, that’s why!

But come to think of it, it’s all thanks to that orange Beast Shape Cauldron Soul. It made my Bone Cauldron grow like it had an energy boost and transformed into a Dark Gold Bone Cauldron!

With this thing, what’s there to fear about not being able to make good bone artifacts?

Trying to control his trembling hands due to excitement, Su Ran held the Bone Cauldron and continuously infused his magical energy into it.

When the magical power was poured into the Bone Cauldron, it instantly transformed into a large bag, bundling all materials inside into a spherical mass, floating in the middle of the cauldron. Suddenly, there was a surge of roaring fire inside the Bone Cauldron. The magical power ignited instantaneously, roasting all the materials with a crackling sound. The entire Bone Cauldron turned red-hot, even the glare was almost melting.

As Su Ran was connected with the Strange Demon Bone Cauldron spiritually, it was very easy for him to observe the refinement process. Within a short time, the pile of materials was refined into a large chunk of brown liquid. Under the high temperature of the cauldron fire, it continuously changed its shape. In the end, driven by Su Ran’s spiritual control, the liquid was stretched into the shape of a long spear—it then underwent shaping, solidification, and cooling in one fell swoop.

Upon discontinuing the infusion of magical power, the fire in the Bone Cauldron gradually dwindled till it extinguished. When the inner walls of the Bone Cauldron had completely cooled down, Su Ran lifted the lid and pulled out a dark brown bone spear with one hand.
