Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 620 - 587: Expensive Town Recall Scroll (Two-in-one)

"A bunch of country bumpkins making a fuss over nothing!"

Floating in the air, Su Ran glanced disinterestedly at the ground below, his eyes peering in all directions. Now that the transaction was completed, it was time to find an escape route.

However,

Before Su Ran had the chance to make a move, his gaze was riveted once again by Dai Xuan, who was standing on the ground below.

"Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, I have one precious item that I want to sell you, are you interested?"

"No."

Without any hesitation, Su Ran brusquely turned the offer down. Given Dai Xuan’s sly smirk, who knows what kind of dirty trick he was planning!

"Youngster, you really footle around. Why don’t you take a look at this treasure before making a decision!"

Dai Xuan pulled something out of his bag, flashed Su Ran a sneaky smile and said, "This is called Town Recall Scroll, it can help you easily escape, even from insurmountable predicaments. It’s quite a bargain, yours for the mere sum of 20,000 gold coins!"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding players burst into laughter, filled with ridicule. They, too, had figured out Dai Xuan’s ploy - he was obviously taking advantage of the fact that Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained did not have a Town Recall Scroll and thus, couldn’t escape from the space!

Before Su Ran had a chance to respond, Dai Xuan turned to the players gathered around him, "Guys, let’s split into ten teams and guard the teleporter with all our might. We’ll keep watch round the clock, and don’t you dare let the kid escape, or I’ll have your heads!"

"Yes, sir!"

The players responded with laughter, and one even chimed in, saying, "Once that kid runs out of magic power, we’ll capture him alive. It would be such a bore to simply kill him!" ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

"Good thinking, lad!"

Dai Xuan chuckled, well pleased with the acumen his minions displayed. He then returned his gaze to Su Ran, his face showing supreme confidence.

"Leader Dai, is this your idea of hospitality? A second-rate Town Recall Scroll for 20,000 gold coins?! Why don’t you just rob me? Hell, did I somehow astray into a den of thieves?"

Boasting extravagant expressions and exaggerated gestures, Su Ran bemoaned, "Ah, I’m too kind-hearted for my own good, selling that artifact to you with such ease! Based on the current price of Town Recall Scrolls, that gun should be sold for no less than 10,000,000 gold coins. What a pity! But well, I guess I am inherently kind-hearted, and haven’t stooped down to your level yet!"

"Spare me your nonsense, deal with yourself first! Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, I am sure you understand the principle of supply and demand. Though this Town Recall Scroll isn’t worth much outside, it’s an invaluable asset in this fortress of mine. Without it, do you think you can leave this place? Think again!"

Dai Xuan’s face darkened, "Kid, we’re all sensible people here. Rather than wasting your in-game time living on a knife-edge, why not part with those 20,000 gold coins and I’ll let you go. What do you say?"

"Ah, Leader Dai, what makes you so certain that I don’t have my own Town Recall Scroll?"

Su Ran sighed, thinking, ’Don’t I just need time to transition from the location restrictions? Is it necessary to threaten me like this?’ A Town Recall Scroll for 20,000 gold coins, they really had the face to mention that!

"Playing hard to get?"

Dai Xuan snorted, twirling his gun in a dazzling display of skill. Truly, he was a man living by the gun. In this regard, Su Ran was no match for him.

"Kid, I am not going to push you. I’ve given you the chance. Since you don’t want it, let’s... just wait and see!"

With that, Dai Xuan strode towards the rugged mountain path, not even glancing back at Su Ran. As for the Red Gold Cloud Tiger, he had already returned it back to the pet space.

"Hey, coward, come down here and see if I don’t crush you!"

Wanting to make an impression before Leader Dai exited the area, a tall and thin warrior pointed at Su Ran and shouted, startling the other players.

"Are you out of your mind? The leader wants him alive!"

"Stop talking, he might vent his anger on you! Then, you’ll suffer."

"I thought you were usually quite clever, why’ve you turned idiotic at such a critical moment?"

The players chided the tall and thin warrior, who blushed crimson, retracted his neck, and hung his head in embarrassment.

As for Dai Xuan, he paused briefly before continuing up the mountain path. His apparent destination was the stone cavern to which the Stone Lockwood Bridge led. He believed that the disappearance of the giant treasure chest was highly likely to be related to Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained. There might very possibly be a pathway to the secret chamber inside that cavern!

If he found that pathway, then the Mechanism Stone would be rendered useless and so would the value of Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained.

"I am done with you guys, goodbye!"

Dai Xuan’s departure sapped Su Ran’s interest. He took out a Town Recall Scroll and crushed it. As a beam of light flashed, Su Ran disappeared from that space.

"Damn it!!!"

"Leader, he escaped!"

"He had a Town Recall Scroll. He was messing with us all along!"

"Should we alert our comrades in town?"

Unexpectedly, Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained had a Teleportation Scroll with him! Then, what was the rush to the teleporter all about? Was he messing with them?

"Forget it, no need to bother about him for now. You guys... go about your business."

Dai Xuan’s mind was no longer fixated on Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained. Even though he had lost 20,000 gold coins, he knew that sooner or later, Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained would fall into his hands again!
