Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 796 - 718: The Golden Scale Spearfish King

"Sir, why did you stop?"

Looking at the idle look on the fisherman’s face, Su Ran chuckled inwardly. Despite this, he still pretended to be confused as he looked at the fisherman.

Well, who could blame him for not believing in my abilities?

"Ahem."

Turning red, the fisherman coughed awkwardly and said in an unnatural manner, "I was just joking with you earlier. Wow, it is indeed true that heroes are always young. You are so extraordinary at such a young age. The task of slaying the King Golden Scale Spearfish is yours now!"

"Ding! Task acquisition failed. Temporary task, ’Fisherman’s Challenge,’ has been cancelled."

"Ding! Congratulations to player Skull for receiving the special task, ’Slaying the King Golden Scale Spearfish.’ Task reward: The friendship of the fisherman; Task failure punishment: Expulsion from the Deep Sea Fishing Island."

Following the two system notifications, Su Ran’s spirit was instantly boosted. The task was in hand!

But...

Why was the task punishment so severe? Banished from the fishing island, could he still play happily?

So it seemed, it was a task that had to be successful; failure was not an option!

"Sir, this battle is dangerous, don’t you have any special items to assist this junior?"

Su Ran’s old habit acted up again, feeling uncomfortable if he didn’t take advantage of NPCs. He instinctively glanced at the fishing boat and broke into a grin, "Sir, I see your fishing net on the boat is pretty good, very resilient, it would be perfect for catching the King Golden Scale Spearfish!"

"You!!!"

The fisherman’s dark cheeks trembled, and his anger soared, almost picking up the three-pronged harpoon to throw at him. But glancing at the group of summoned pets, he had to suppress his anger and shouted with a shaky voice, "Leave before I change my mind!"

"Uh, okay..."

Not daring to stimulate the fisherman further, Su Ran ran north in a flash, followed by a large group of pets, making quite a spectacular scene.

Why get so angry if you won’t give me anything?

Is it that time of the month? Really now!

...

As Su Ran walked on the beach, following the coordinates marked by the system, he finally arrived at the destination.

"Let’s get to work, grilled fish for dinner tonight!"

With a wicked grin, Su Ran took out the Ice Crystal Bone Scythe and slung it over his shoulder, placing all the pets on the shore. Then, with a splash, he jumped into the sea.

It couldn’t be helped. The battle pets were scared of water and risked total annihilation, so he had to leave them behind.

Swimming freely in the sea, Su Ran enjoyed the warm comfort of the water as if he were in his mother’s arms.

Thanks to the Ice Crystal Bone Scythe’s incredible speed, Su Ran quickly reached the sea floor, where he noted the presence of the spearfish group earmarked by the mission.

These black-scaled spearfish were about one meter and two long, had a streamlined body, and a half-meter-long sawblade-like appendage that indicated they were not to be messed with.

"How come I can’t see the golden spearfish king?"

After observing for a while, Su Ran failed to spot the King Golden Scale Spearfish, which left him puzzled.

But Su Ran wasn’t going to let this group of black-scaled spearfish go. Upon realizing they were nothing more than level 35 ordinary monsters, he decided to take action.

There was no choice. These spearfish were all about experience. Letting such a group of experience points get away would have been a cardinal sin.

"Whizz!"

With a shoot of Ice Arrow, Su Ran fired the first shot of the battle and immediately lost his enthusiasm.

Damn it, these black-scaled spearfish actually shared hate!

One for all and all for one!

Faced with countless black-scaled spearfish, Su Ran instantly lost all intention of fighting back and darted for the sea surface.

Yuck, the sea was not a loving mother, but a harsh stepmother!

"Bang!"

A sound erupted over the placid sea as Su Ran burst forth, darting into the air using Treading on Air Technique. Only after escaping to the sky did he sigh in relief.

"Whizz! Whizz! Whizz!"

Swarm of Black-scaled Spearfish pierced through the water, like javelins shining silver under the sun— the combined power of nearly a hundred spearfish was imaginable!

"Haha, the sky is not your stage!"

Su Ran laughed loudly, spinning wildly in the air with his bone scythe. Icy winds swirled with every swing, forming a terrifying ice vortex in the mid-air that ranted towards the flock of Black-scaled Spearfish.

"Swoosh~ Swoosh!!!"

The fierce attack of Black-scaled Spearfish was utterly incapable of resisting the violent vortex, drawn up into the sky and transformed into chunks of ice before smashing onto the shore.

"Children, kill!"

Excitedly, Su Ran roared. His immobilized summoned skeletons immediately regained their movement and surrounded the swarm of Black-scaled Spearfish, fiercely chopping them into minced fish.

Black-scaled Spearfish, significantly weakened outside their natural water environment, were inferior to even a small skeleton. Twitching wildly on the sand, they quickly fell victim to the blades of the undead, covering the ground with corpses.

"Cough, these dead fish shouldn’t be wasted; they’re good material for converting into skeleton guards."

Su Ran hurriedly gathered the fish carcasses into his bladder. Although the skeleton guards converted from them weren’t particularly powerful, they were useful in augmenting his forces.

"Huh? What’s this..."

With the dead fish no longer obstructing his field of view, Su Ran spotted numerous earthworm-like creatures squirming on the ground after the Spearfish perished. He felt a shudder.

Holding an earthworm between two fingers, he curiously started to examine its properties.

[Ordinary Fish Bait] (Quest Item)

Specifically for fishing, increases the success rate of fishing and luck.

"Fish bait, a quest item? Haha, an unexpected windfall!"

The sight of the word "quest" immediately rejuvenated Su Ran, he gathered the ugly worms, pleased with his find.

"First battle won, on we go!"

After setting his summoned skeletons again, Su Ran jumped back into the sea, swimming towards the coordinate indicated by the system.

Before he could reach his destination, a golden spearfish appeared in his sight.

The Golden-scaled Spearfish was approximately two and a half meters long, significantly larger than the Black-scaled spearfish, powerful and commanding. Without a doubt, this was Su Ran’s quest target, the King of the Golden-scaled spearfish.

"Haha, after the small ones comes the big one; this rule of survival applies in the underwater world as well!"

Su Ran had a thought. While the Spearfish boss still hadn’t noticed him, he quickly studied its attributes and skills, preparing himself for the upcoming battle.
