Chapter 597: Chapter 569: Open the Large Treasure Chest! (2 in 1) _2

"Enough!", one of them fumed, "That fool played us, and we fell for it! We can’t let him off so easily! Bring all these players back with us!"

The more the mage player thought about it, the more frustrated he became. The thought of losing the treasures in the gigantic chest to that treacherous guy was enough to make his blood boil.

"How do we get back? The only road is blocked by them. Shall we fly up?"

"Damn it!"

The mage player exhaled angrily and yelled to the pursuing players while on the run, "Chest Hair! We still have another comrade. Go guard the chest! Why are you wasting time chasing us?"

"Do you think we’re stupid? Give it up and meet your end. We can still return after killing you!"

Chest Hair, being overweight, was unfit for intense physical exertion. After shouting, he found himself panting heavily, gasping for air as he bent over.

"You guys...you continue the chase, I’ll guard...guard the treasure!"

The other players gave understanding smiles, accelerating their paces, chasing the green hatted duo.

...

Meanwhile, Su Ran entered the dark abyss and scanned his surroundings, feeling somewhat nostalgic. He had been here several times before, feeling a sense of familiarity with the wandering little skeletons up ahead.

This was their Undead’s paradise!

"Huh? Instead of leveling up, why are these players climbing the mountain?"

Su Ran noticed with surprise that around a dozen players were climbing the rocky path toward the platform, clearly heading for the cave at the end of the Stone Block Wooden Bridge.

With that path blocked, Su Ran made Wang Cai sneakily cross Blackwater Pool. After hiding behind the waterfall, he withdrew Wang Cai and used the Treading on Air Technique to ascend the waterfall. He easily made it into the hidden passage.

"Capabilities of flight sure make things easy!"

Reminded of his struggle during his first time entering this space, Su Ran sighed.

He easily arrived in the space above the cave via the floating stone steps.

Su Ran remembered that he had collapsed this cave wall last time. He had to be careful this time, considering the numerous players inside the cave.

Su Ran cautiously moved to the top of the cave and found a small crevice, through which he could monitor the activities inside.

"Huh, isn’t that an old acquaintance?"

Through the crevice, Su Ran unexpectedly spotted a plump guy meditating not far from him. He recognized this player who went by the name Chest Hair from one of their previous encounters.

Su Ran, feeling mischievous, decided to pull a trick on him. He picked up a few pebbles and threw them his way.

Pebble after pebble hit Chest Hair’s head square on. Just as Su Ran was snickering at Chest Hair’s furious expression, he heard hurried footsteps coming from behind.

"Damn, someone’s coming!"

Startled, Su Ran quickly summoned Wang Cai and used his Luck to disguise himself. That’s when he discovered that the incoming player was the green-hatted gamer he had killed a few times before!

"What is he doing here? Did he come for the large treasure chest too?"

Su Ran hid against the stone walls, curious about the newcomer’s intentions.

As for the large treasure chest, he had no plans of giving it up. The Demon Flame Key was most likely in it! To complete the Great White Shark’s mission, he had to open the chest!

Yet,

The green-hatted player was pursued by four others. They quickly engaged in battle. The green-hatted player, lacking the motivation for an all-out fight, led them closer to Su Ran’s hiding place while combating.

Seeing this, Su Ran quickly made way for the players, distancing himself from the fight, fearing that it would expose him.

Suddenly,

An explosion resounded from below during the heat of the battle. The cave walls crumbled and collapsed, causing the four players to fall down, whereas the green-hatted player narrowly escaped the calamity.

Su Ran observed these events silently, curious about the green-hatted player’s next move. Thankfully, the invisibility from Wang Cai could last for five minutes, leaving him in no rush.

However,

He was surprised to hear an argument coming from below. Upon careful listening, he realized that one of the players below was an accomplice of the green-hatted player.

"This is going to be good..."

With a sly smile, Su Ran began to ponder whether the green-hatted player would help his comrade or not?

As expected, he didn’t disappoint.

Without hesitation, the green-hatted player rushed into action, quickly appearing amidst the chaos below. Su Ran was surprised to find him using a precious charm to freeze Chest Hair and the others.

"Quite a generous move!"

Appreciative of the rare charm’s high cost, Su Ran was surprised that the green-hatted player was willing to use it to save his friend.

While the players remained frozen, the green-hatted player rushed to the treasure chest and pulled out a diamond key, aiming it at the keyhole.

A diamond key!!!

The sight of such a high-grade key instantly put Su Ran on high alert. He wasn’t sure if the diamond key would work but he prepared for the worst. Should the chest open, he would reveal himself and jump down to compete for the treasures inside!
