Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 797 - 719: The Fish Turns into A Spirit

"Golden Scale Spearfish King..."

Salivating, Su Ran stared at the fish. The meat looked so mouth-wateringly delicious. If only he could get a taste...

And yet,

the mere thought that he was a skeleton, whose sense of taste was completely different from humans’, suddenly made him lose his appetite.

"Forget about it. I’ll just have my mom buy some big yellow croakers to satisfy my craving."

Unable to help but shake his head, Su Ran was puzzled by his sudden craving. It was probably a symptom of his current condition.

Being able to eat was a good sign. It meant that his condition was improving. Su Ran didn’t give this much thought and slowly started to swim downwards.

As he entered attacking range, without hesitation, he raised his hand and a pointed bone emitting a dark green aura appeared in the water, tearing through the layers of ocean, and aimed straight at the carefree Golden Scale Spearfish King.

This move was a superior bone technique Su Ran had just learnt - Poison Bone Piercing!

"Whoosh!"

The pointed bone, sharp like a hidden weapon, struck the Golden Scale Spearfish King without even causing any water ripples.

"Boom!"

A muffled explosion sound echoed. Under the pressure of the water, it hadn’t reached far before it fell silent. A large cloud of poison fog emerged in the water, turning the Spearfish King Boss’s body into a dark green hue. The poison fog swiftly dispersed under the wash of the seawater before disappearing into the deep sea.

Seeing that the target had been poisoned, without uttering a word, Su Ran immediately turned around and swam towards the sea surface as fast as he could. He planned to lure the Spearfish King to the shore using the same old trick. It would be much easier to kill it there!

Caught by surprise, the Golden Scale Spearfish King became furious especially after being tainted by poison. Its hate immediately locked onto the hateful human above. With the swing of its tail, it quickly darted off in pursuit.

"Damn, this Boss is much faster than me in the deep sea. This is troublesome!"

Su Ran found that the distance between him and the Golden Scale Spearfish King was rapidly closing. The fish was going to catch up soon. It was terribly persistent!

No choice, it was the King of the Sea after all, surely its speed in the ocean was a solid ten!

"Gotta change strategies!"

Su Ran quickly changed his course in the water, forming an arc.

Lucky for Su Ran, he had a divine-grade underwater treasure, the Ice Burst Orb. It allowed him to ignore the deep sea pressure, letting him change directions as freely as a fish without any feeling of hesitation.

"Whoosh~!"

The enraged Golden Scale Spearfish King cut through the water. Its nearly one-metre-long saw-teeth emitted a golden glow. At that moment, it was like it had a full-force engine installed, charging fiercely towards the despicable thief.

"What’s going on?!"

Seeing the unusual water ripples behind him, Su Ran quickly glanced back only to be startled. He thought to himself, did the fish king take some stimulants or something? How did it suddenly become so ferocious?!

"Damn, it’s going for the kill right from the start?!"

Seeing the glittering saw-teeth, Su Ran finally understood. The Golden Scale Spearfish was using its aggressive attack skill, Pierce!

In this critical moment, Su Ran quickly turned around, his huge scythe blocking in front of him. Ice arrows were constantly fired, hoping to trigger a freeze effect that would interrupt the Boss’s skill!

As for why Su Ran didn’t swim forward with all his might...

No brainer, his speed was inferior, what if he got stabbed in the bladder? Wouldn’t that be embarrassing?!

Just picturing that scene felt eerily exciting...

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The two consecutive ice arrows attacked rapidly. The skill of the Golden Scale Spearfish King had been activated, leaving it no chance to avoid, it could only let the ice arrows strike itself.

"Boom!"

"-163"

The first ice arrow triggered a knockback effect. The offensive momentum of the Golden Scale Spearfish King was instantly eliminated. It was forcefully driven back roughly half a meter. Before the Boss could launch its attack again, it was hit squarely by the second ice arrow.

"Boom!"

"-326" (Lucky Crit)

This time, the ice arrow didn’t trigger a freeze effect. Instead, it triggered a critical hit, catching the Golden Scale Spearfish King off guard. The Boss dove straight into the seabed.

Without a doubt, this critical hit triggered the special skill on the scythe, Ice Burst, causing a knockdown effect.

(Ice Burst - When attacking the target, if a Lucky Crit occurs, there is a 35% chance to forcefully knock down the target.)

"Ahaha! This Boss is really unlucky!"

After a moment of surprise, Su Ran couldn’t help laughing. He didn’t hurt the Boss while it was down and continued to swim towards the sea surface.

"Phew, finally made it to safety!"

The moment Su Ran emerged from the water, his nervous mood finally relaxed significantly. Swiftly advancing into the sky, Su Ran stared intently at the sea below, waiting to deliver a fatal blow to the Golden Scale Spearfish.

However, Su Ran miscalculated.

Even after the sea had calmed down, he still didn’t see the Golden Scale Spearfish King. His move to lure the snake out of its hole had failed.

"This doesn’t make sense. The Boss was poisoned, so its hate shouldn’t have been lost. What’s going on?"

Doubts arose in Su Ran’s mind. He waited a little longer, before finally giving up on the idea.

"This Spearfish is smarter than expected and hard to deal with! So be it, onto plan B!"

Once his mind had settled, Su Ran dived back into the sea, making a huge splash.

However.

As soon as Su Ran descended into the water, before his vision had adapted, he suddenly felt a strong vibration from his side. Before he could even look around, he was hit hard and pushed away, almost breaking his spine.

"Damn, I was ambushed!"

Gritting his teeth against the pain, Su Ran hastily adjusted his body posture, only to find out that he had been ambushed by that Golden Scale Spearfish, which was now lunging at him once again.

Darn it!

Wasn’t this Boss too crafty?!

Instead of luring the snake out of the hole, he ended up getting a bite!

"Want to try a double attack? Dream on!"

Grinding his teeth, Su Ran glared at the cunning Golden Scale Spearfish. He even felt the urge to stew it and eat it! Meanwhile, he brandished the scythe in his hand and attacked the incoming, fierce Golden Scale Spearfish.

"Swoosh!"

A shadowy light momentarily flashed on the scythe, almost blinding the boss’s pair of fish eyes. Under Su Ran’s watchful gaze, the Golden Scale Spearfish King turned into a statue and sank into the bed of the sea.

"Nice shot! Direct hit!"

What Su Ran had just triggered was the petrification skill brought by the Petrification Orb!

Seeing that the skill was effective, Su Ran excitedly swung his scythe, forcefully lifting the petrified fish and heading towards the water surface.

Since it refused to come out of the water, he would drag it out!

"Boom!"

Jumping out of the water, the moment the petrification state of the Boss wore off, Su Ran flung the Golden Scale Spearfish King towards the shore.

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

Golden Scale Spearfish King hadn’t expected that it would be hauled out of the water for the first time after ruling the seabed for many years...
