Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 739 - 665 Mysterious NPC (Two in One)

"So annoying!"

Youtong was stunned by the roar, she clutched her ears to lessen the assault of noise on her senses.

Meanwhile, Su Ran and Little Yue hastily attacked the Magic Sky Snake in hopes of slaying it before anything worse happened!

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Bursts of fire magic consecutively bombarded the Magic Sky Snake, but it seemed unaffected, bearing all the injuries like a solid wooden log. Its body, with numerous wounds, trembled even more. A large amount of blood seeped out, making everyone reluctant to watch.

However, just at the moment when the Magic Sky Snake’s life started to fade, a cloth bag descended from the sky. A violent suction emerged instantly, swallowing the giant snake within an eye’s blink.

"Whoosh!"

Before Su Ran and his team could react, the cloth bag suddenly shrunk and flew straight into the sky. As it was about to disappear from sight, Little Yue urgently shouted, "Overturning Water, go after it!"

Err...

With such speed, even straining as much as possible, catching up would be impossible right?!

Nonetheless, Su Ran obeyed the order and exerted his Treading on Air Technique to the limit. He quickly rose above the clouds, following the trail of the cloth bag at a swift pace. Before long, he was hidden by the clouds and vanished into the horizon.

"What on earth is that cloth bag, does anyone know?"

The heavy smoker looked shocked, asking his teammates, "How come this thing is so potent? It can even swallow a BOSS!"

Everyone fell silent. Clearly, they were dealing with an unprecedented situation and no one could provide an explanation.

"Little Yue, do you think Overturning Water will be able to catch that bag?"

Youtong asked worriedly. For her, judging by Overturning Water’s speed, catching this mysterious treasure seemed unlikely.

"I’m not sure, I just don’t want to give up hope. Even if Overturning Water can’t get a hold of it, at least we know he tried. So we won’t have any regrets later. Little Tong, don’t pin your hopes on this thing. No matter how top-end it is, it’s still just an object in the duplicate, and is likely to be useless once out of the clone."

Little Yue looked back from the sky and smiled at Youtong, "Let’s wait until Overturning Water is back, then ask him. It’s him who stirred this clone into such a mess, he needs to take responsibility!"

"Right, he started causing trouble since the Ant extermination event, demanding rewards from the city lord, and now has made the Magic Sky Snake suffer. No ordinary person would have dared to do all this. Overturning Water sure is a game changer."

Youtong nodded in agreement, feeling like she herself had experienced a fake copy, nothing was going as planned.

"Little Tong, I heard you badmouthing Overturning Water, you may miss out on your share of the loot in the boss lair later~!"

Gu Yue clasped Youtong’s hand and said with a smile. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

"No, no, I was merely praising Overturning Water, Little Yue, you misunderstood~!"

Upon hearing about loot, Youtong’s eyes instantly lit up. Shaking Gu Yue’s arm, she fervently denied everything.

"Hey, let’s not mess around for now. What do you guys think, does the Magic Sky Snake in this bag have the potential to become a pet?"

The heavy smoker had been pondering this question. Even though the idea of finding a pet in the clone was absurd, given the current situation, it didn’t seem impossible.

"A pet?"

Youtong glanced at the heavy smoker, "Are you still half asleep? Or has your brain been knocked out by a fart? We’re in a duplicate, you’ve just gone crazy over the idea of a pet!"

The heavy smoker didn’t speak anymore.

...

While Su Ran was chasing the cloth bag into the sky, to his surprise, he found it was slowing down and taking a downward parabolic trajectory.

"There’s a chance!"

With a surge of joy in his heart, he sped up, gradually closing in on the bag. But before he could get any closer, he halted abruptly, his body soaring to avoid the flying sack. Someone had caught the bag.

A man, dressed in black, tall and skinny, his face obscured, Su Ran couldn’t discern who he was, casting a shadow of doubt in his mind.

"Who are you? What’s your relationship with the Magic Sky Snake?"

Unable to gauge the man’s intentions, Su Ran asked first. He posed in mid-air, on his guard, wary of a sudden attack from this stranger.

"Hee hee hee~~"

The mysterious man laughed uproariously, his voice grating and unsettling, the sound itself seemed to strike a blow at one’s soul.

"Whoosh!"

Without pausing or uttering a word, the man tied the bag to his right wrist and, in a flash, blasted off at an astounding speed, sprinting into the distance.

Su Ran stayed still, allowing the man to disappear from his sight. He knew the wisdom of not hastily pursuing a desperate enemy, and given the man’s strange appearance, Su Ran had some doubts about what would happen in case he did manage to catch up.

The occurrence in the clone was puzzling to Su Ran. The story now had branched off the main plot, making it impossible for him to guess what kind of twists could be coming next.

"Never mind, deal with it after getting back!"

Since the BOSS Monster for this mission had disappeared and failed to drop the Secret Realm Horn, he had to return to the city lord’s mansion to inquire about the next task. Su Ran turned around and proceeded towards Cloud Pool, drifting in the air. After a moment’s hesitation, he took out the two halves of green stone and examined its special properties closely.
