Chapter 704: Chapter 648: Searching for the Unsealing Cloud Card (Two-in-One) _2
The handsome youngster pointed at the empty ground ahead and said with a grin.
"Where are the beasts?"
Su Ran looked hard into the distance but saw nothing – not even a fly!
"Stop messing with Overturning Water and let’s get started!"
Youtong casted Defense Aura on herself and charged onto the open ground with her shield.
At that moment, the ground started to ripple like marshmallows. Clouds separated from the ground, transforming into monsters that sprinted towards Youtong.
"What are you all waiting for?! Come and help!"
Youtong was surrounded by monsters on all sides, not able to hold them off for long. Seeing her teammates walking leisurely, she couldn’t help but shout out in distress.
"Who told you to rush in like that? You never learn to curb your impatience! Wait until you suffer the consequences before you regret it!"
The handsome youngster was conjuring fire elemental magic and commanded, "Little Yue, pay attention to your health, Overturning Water, focus on damage dealing; Big Smoke Ghost, assist Youtong!"
"Okay!"
With a few strides, Big Smoke Ghost plunged into the crowd of Cloud Mud Monsters with a Jump Cut. His iron rod swished through the air as he continuously battered the monsters, distracting some of them, and relieved a lot of pressure from Youtong.
"Whoosh!"
Gu Yue’s Qi Healing Technique was interspersed, easily ensuring that the health of Youtong and himself stayed above two-thirds.
As for Su Ran, he summoned ten Bronze Skeletons. Once summoned, the skeletons effortlessly drilled out of the clouds, their clattering joining the battlefield.
That was not all. Su Ran took out a handful of sand and summoned the Sand Puppet, directing both it and the skeletons to attack the Cloud Mud Monsters.
With Su Ran’s summoned creatures joining the fight, the pressure on Youtong and Big Smoke Ghost lessened drastically. Even Gu Yue found time to conjure light orbs to attack.
After a concerted effort, they finally took down dozens of Cloud Mud Monsters. Their corpses turned into clusters of clouds, merged into the ground, and returned to being clouds.
"That’s a lot of experience!"
Said Su Ran, surprised. He didn’t expect these quest monsters to give him such a high amount of experience; it was an unexpected joy!
"What’s there to be surprised about? They are just level 40 quest monsters, without any over-level experience bonus. They didn’t even drop any items, what’s the big deal."
While healing, Youtong pulled out a gold wound potion and teased Su Ran.
"Hmm, I’ve been out of the loop."
Su Ran then realized he was only level 32. Under the bonus, he could see why the experience points were so high.
At least, it was much higher than those desert bats!
"Everyone, refill your health and mana. Let’s continue ahead. We will come across two level 40 Bronze Bosses soon. Stay alert!"
The handsome boy had entered the dungeon a few times and had begun to work out some strategies. He had managed to save Su Ran a lot of trouble.
As the saying goes,
One generation plants the trees, the next generation gets the shade. There couldn’t be anything truer than this.
"Woo woo~!"
Everyone traveled about fifty meters forward when all of a sudden wind kicked up causing ripples on the ground, making it difficult for Su Ran’s team to advance.
"Be careful, everyone. The Boss is about to appear, and it’s not like those little monsters!"
The handsome boy focused his gaze on the front while the wind blew against his face, making his veil flutter.
"What’s there to be afraid of? With Overturning Water and his army of summons, taking down a Boss would be a piece of cake!"
Youtong, for some reason, was like on some stimulants, continued to rush forward disregard the strong winds and the resisting forces of the ground. To Youtong, these were nothing!
"Youtong, stop messing around!"
The young guy seemed a bit anxious, was one shield-bearer going to take on two BOSSes by herself? Wasn’t that just asking for trouble?
"No problem, it’s not like I haven’t tried this before, these two BOSSes won’t take me down so quickly!"
Youtong responded with a reassuring look to the young guy but before she could turn back, the ground suddenly began to boil. Wind from above rapidly poured into the ground beneath her feet, which felt like a balloon filled with air, explosively bursting with a bang.
"Oh my God~~~!"
Youtong didn’t expect this kind of change. She, standing at the epicenter of the explosion, was shot into the clouds. Fortunately, the Ghost Eye had quick reactions and grabbed her in time, otherwise, she would have likely fallen from the sky.
"Look at you now causing trouble. Was it worth it?"
The young guy and Gu Yue quickly ran over to Youtong, speaking with a mixture of exasperation and amusement.
"Hmph! The system isn’t playing by the rules. These BOSSes are playing dirty, I’m definitely going to get back at them!"
Youtong quickly got up, apparently not injured badly. After a quick use of a golden plaster, she was back in full force.
"Phew, thank goodness the ground was soft, or else I might have disfigured my face..."
"Consider this a lesson to you, think you’ll cease meddling in things now?"
Seeing Youtong’s unchanging stubbornness, the young guy gave her a hard rap on the head.
"Ouch, hey, will you stop hitting my head every time? What if you make me dumb? I don’t even have a boyfriend yet!"
Youtong clutched her head, crying out in pain but of course, there was quite a bit of exaggeration in her actions.
Just then, from the area of the explosion, two massive Cloud Mud Monster BOSSes materialized, producing weird noises as they advanced toward them.
"Cackle cackle."
Without waiting for the young guy’s command, Su Ran’s skeleton squad rushed forward, acting as a bony wall in the path of the two Cloud Mud Monsters.
"You dare ridicule me? Evil Cloud Mud Monsters!"
Youtong held her shield high and charged into the wall of bronze skeletons, blocking two sharp attacks.
While everyone was engrossed in the fierce battle with the two BOSSes, Su Ran checked their stats. Upon inspection, he realized these two were just 40-level task BOSSes with a bit more attack power and HP than minions, and their skills were nothing special. Nothing to worry about.
No wonder Youtong had dared to solo these two BOSSes just now.
Soon, Su Ran and his group managed to defeat these two deceptively powerful task BOSSes and a golden treasure chest dropped. The young guy went up and held the chest with glee, saying, "There’s a difference with Overturning Water around. Our efficiency has increased greatly. I thought it would take us another ten minutes to take these two BOSSes down, but we have taken them down already."
"Let’s go, time to change our location and find the keys!"
Packing up the golden chest, the young guy took the lead and headed in the northwest direction.
Keys?
Su Ran stayed silent and followed them while opening the task panel. He discovered that the dungeon task had already updated: Find the keys to the treasure chest in the Cloud Ant Cave.
It was only then that Su Ran realized. With no surprises, the task item, the Seal-Breaking Cloud Card, must be in this golden chest!
"Overturning Water, the Cloud Ant Cave is just up ahead. Be careful. There are many pits below, very confusing. Last time, Ghost Eye accidentally fell from one of the pits and died outright. Tsk, tsk, the scene was just too miserable!"
Youtong exaggeratedly narrated, pulling off a pretty convincing range of facial expressions. She was truly the mood maker of the team, causing all the members to laugh. Only Ghost Eye was sulking.
"What’s there to be afraid of? He can fly!"
Ghost Eye sneered, feeling the world was unfair. Comparing people could truly drive one to despair!
Chatting and joking along the way, everyone successfully navigated around the blocking pits and reached an entrance which was relatively larger. Under the directions of the young guy, they headed in one after another.
Because the Cloud Ant Cave was made up of nothing but clouds, it was incredibly soft. The young guy and his team slid down like they were on a slide. Su Ran also copied them gracefully and slid in.
"In a while, we will be swarmed with Cloud Ants. The key for the treasure chest drops from these ants. Everyone get ready, let’s clear this stage in one go!"
The young guy calmly instructed them and soon pushed Youtong lightly, "Little Yue, aren’t you always showing off your skills? Go ahead, lead these Cloud Ants away!"
