Chapter 607: Chapter 578: Treasure Chest Guardian BOSS (Two-in-One)

"Partnership?"

Ghost Abandoned revealed eight stark white teeth, "Okay, how do you propose we establish this partnership?"

"Um, just bestow upon this junior some skills. My demands are not high, truly, you could give it a try if you don’t believe me."

Su Ran shamelessly said, rubbing his clawed skeleton hands together, his inner excitement clear to see.

"Skeleton boy, seeing your insolent attitude, my inclination to kill you has returned."

Ghost Abandoned’s expression darkened, a chill emanating from the horns on his forehead, "If you wish to receive my skills, you can join the Ghost Clan first!"

"Join the Ghost Clan?"

Su Ran’s eyes suddenly widened and his face became pale. He let out an embarrassed laugh, "Ghost Abandoned, elder, I was just joking around, don’t take it to heart. There’s no need for us to discuss skills. That’s beside the point."

"Hmm."

"Elder, have...have you ever seen the Demon Flame Key?"

Seeing Ghost Abandoned’s emotions had calmed down, Su Ran quickly changed the subject to his mission prop. To be honest, he did not expect the Ghost Clan BOSS that had been sealed for countless years to be able to give him any answers. He just raised the topic to lighten the mood. As soon as the Ghost Clan BOSS denied it, he could give up the thought.

"I’ve seen it."

"I knew it, how could an elder like you not know...where did you see it?"

Su Ran was taken aback and hurried forward. He was completely surprised that Ghost Abandoned knew the location of the Demon Flame Key. This was a lucky break.

"I have it."

Like a stone tossed into a pond, Ghost Abandoned’s casual response stunned Su Ran.

Su Ran’s eyes burned with the flames of excitement. To think that he would so easily find the rightful owner of the Demon Flame Key. Talk about luck!

"Elder, I have an unjust request..."

"No."

"..."

Su Ran’s Bone Soul Ghost Fire dimmed, reflecting his deflation. He couldn’t possibly defeat this BOSS. Taking it by force was out of the question, all he could do was play a long game. Yet, even before Su Ran could open his mouth, he saw Ghost Abandoned cast his gaze into the distance, seemingly recalling the past, slowly expressing his thoughts. His voice was not loud, it seemed like he was speaking to Su Ran and more like he was reflecting to himself.

"Back then, in order to get this Demon Flame Key, I killed many ghost generals. Even the Ghost Monster among them, I slaughtered countless. As a result, I became an everlasting criminal of the ghost world, expelled and suppressed here, never able to turn the tide. You don’t understand this cost."

"But elder Ghost Abandoned, what did you intend to do with the Demon Flame Key?"

Su Ran asked carefully, hoping his motives aligned with the elder’s to make things simpler.

"What did I intend to do with it? Ridiculous!"

Ghost Abandoned shook his head with a smile, a look of disdain in his eyes, "This Demon Flame Key breaks all seals in the world, what do you think I wanted to use it for?"

Wow, it’s that powerful?!

Through Ghost Abandoned’s explanation, Su Ran learned that the Demon Flame Key was not only for opening the Great White Shark’s seal, but it could open any seal! This made the Demon Flame Key even more precious.

"Elder Ghost Abandoned, is the Demon Flame Key a one-off item?"

"The key can be used three times, now only the last opportunity remains, it’s extremely precious." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

"No wonder you’ve been sealed in this coffin for so many years, never daring to use the Demon Flame Key."

Su Ran said, feigning admiration, while internally, he scorned Ghost Abandoned as just another life-risking miser.

"That’s where you’re wrong. Those bastards feared I would use the Demon Flame Key to escape, so they split my soul into two, even the coffin was split in two, I simply couldn’t use the Demon Flame Key."

Referring to members of the Ghost Clan as bastards has profound implications. Remember this point, it will be on the test.

"Elder, then the previous two times..."

"It’s embarrassing, but they were both used for escape. Unfortunately, I was caught and brought back."

"..."

Su Ran was left speechless.

He only wanted to ask Ghost Abandoned one thing: didn’t it hurt to waste the Demon Flame Key that he obtained risking expulsion from his clan?

"After so long, I’ve accepted it. If you want this precious Demon Flame Key, it’s not impossible, but..."

"Elder, quit drawing out your words, just tell me! I have strong resilience!"

How anxious Su Ran was, he would rather strip the words out of Ghost Abandoned’s mouth to find out what he intended to say!

"Kill the Corpse Bone Centipede and extract its bone marrow for me."

"The Corpse Bone Centipede?!"

Su Ran recalled the monster sealed in the cave, his heart sank. He lamented:

"Elder, the Corpse Bone Centipede is a Level 45 Gold Boss, and this junior is merely a low-ranking undead! Even if it cost me my life, I would not be able to kill it!"

"Oh, you’re familiar with the Corpse Bone Centipede?"

Ghost Abandoned asked with some surprise, looking at Su Ran with a strange look in his eyes.

Su Ran nodded his skull, without uttering a single word. In his heart, however, he bemoaned his place in all this. That Corpse Bone Centipede was his doing, he even caused it to reach the gold rank...

Of course, he didn’t dare to say these words. He was sure he would be in trouble if the BOSS found out!

"How about...you lead it here and I take care of the rest. And this counts as your task completion, ok?"

Upon slight reflection, Ghost Abandoned proposed this to Su Ran, sounding somewhat hurried.

"Sounds good to me!"
