Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 820 - 742: The Envoy Is Stunned

"Huh? There really is some good stuff here, an enhancement protection stone!"

After seeing the enhancement protection stone, Su Ran didn’t hesitate and immediately decided to exchange for it.

"Lord Messenger, how many pieces can this enhancement protection stone be exchanged for?"

Su Ran glanced at the Sea Territory Messenger’s impatient expression and asked very cautiously.

"Exchange it based on the quality of the money fish, hurry up if you want to trade, I don’t have time to wait on you!"

The Sea Territory Messenger’s face was frighteningly dark, and without waiting for Su Ran to reply, he snatched the money fish, looked it over and said with some surprise, "Quality 30 money fish? That’s really rare!"

"Here are 30 enhancement protection stones, take them and don’t bother me with nothing!"

Su Ran quickly took the enhancement protection stones, not minding the Sea Territory Messenger’s rude attitude, and looked at the NPC with a smile, "Lord Messenger, the junior has another important matter to report!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, the Sea Territory Messenger felt his liver throbbing faintly with pain.

As the saying goes, once or twice is okay, but not a third time, this kid was definitely challenging his patience repeatedly!

Even Mudmen have a bit of a temper, but this little brat in a black robe was going way too far!

"Swoosh!"

The Sea Territory Messenger didn’t listen to Su Ran’s following words, he huffed heavily, surrounded himself with light, and teleported away from the place, leaving Su Ran alone, abandoned on the beach.

"Ding! Due to the player Skull overly provoking the Sea Territory Messenger, the task location has undergone an unforeseen change. Player Skull can only properly hand over the task by finding the Sea Territory Messenger’s coordinates in the fishing island terrain."

The sudden system prompt provided Su Ran with a clue.

"Hey, are we playing hide and seek now?"

Su Ran grinned, not the least bit uneasy about the disappearance of the Sea Territory Messenger. He pulled out the extra token, a hint of relief in his eyes, "Luckily the old village chief gave me an extra one, or this would have really been troublesome!"

"Lord Messenger, please kindly come back to me!"

Su Ran chuckled and used the token right on the spot.

"Swoosh."

A flash of white light appeared, and the very Sea Territory Messenger who had just vanished was forcefully summoned back.

"..." freewebnσvel.cøm

The Sea Territory Messenger, just getting used to the new environment and not even having taken a breather, was plunged into darkness again and returned to the original place. The little smiling figure in the black robe stood in front of him, waiting to see his reaction.

The Sea Territory Messenger was dumbfounded.

"Lord Messenger, the junior really had no choice, I didn’t expect you to vanish so suddenly. However, luckily I exchanged for quite a few tokens before, which lessened the junior’s longing for your return."

Su Ran glanced at the NPC, noticing his face turning shades of green and white, his cheeks trembling slightly, probably fuming with anger because of Su Ran.

After hearing what Su Ran said, the Sea Territory Messenger lost his temper altogether.

A lot of tokens still remain?

Then there’s no point in escaping!

"Speak, what else do you want? Say it all, I’m tired and want to rest."

The words of the Sea Territory Messenger conveyed a deep sense of helplessness and weariness, his earlier rage now subsided.

"It’s like this, Lord Messenger, I came to you this time to hand over the task,"

Su Ran stood tall, neither servile nor overbearing, "I have gathered all the required Sea Blue Crystals, you see..."

"You’ve gathered them all?"

The Sea Territory Messenger exclaimed in disbelief, scrutinizing Su Ran with skeptical eyes, "If you dare deceive this messenger, you shall soon understand the consequences are heavy..."

However, before the Sea Territory Messenger could finish his threat, he was silenced by the substantial amount of Sea Blue Crystals in Su Ran’s hands.

"Lord Messenger, these are the Sea Blue Crystals you required, please check them,"

Su Ran handed the Sea Blue Crystals to the Sea Territory Messenger, bowing his head low. He couldn’t help it; he was worried that the NPC would see the amusement in his eyes and play hide and seek with him again, as he had no spare tokens left to summon him with.

"Ahem."

The Sea Domain Envoy pocketed the Sea Blue Crystal and immediately changed his attitude towards Su Ran, using a cough to alleviate the awkward atmosphere, "Young hero, I knew you were extraordinary. To complete such a challenging task in such a short time!"

"Luck, just luck."

Su Ran waved his hand, displaying great modesty.

"Since you have already completed the task I assigned, I should tell you the clue to the Great White Shark’s weapon."

Despite his reluctance, the Sea Domain Envoy had to proceed to the next step of the task due to system rules.

"Please speak, my lord. Your junior is all ears."

"Head to the deep North Sea, where a powerful Electric Eel King resides. Defeat it, and you will gain useful information. However, this electric eel’s lightning attack is very powerful and has a wide range. With your current strength, confronting it would be tantamount to suicide!"

The Sea Domain Envoy watched Su Ran, his gaze icy, "Now that my task is complete, don’t bother me again!!"

"Wait, wait, my lord, your junior still has questions to ask..."

Before Su Ran could finish, the Sea Domain Envoy had already disappeared in front of him.

"Look at my memory; I was so focused on completing the Sea Blue Crystal task that I forgot about the special task ’Mysterious Path’!"

(Mysterious Path was precisely the task Su Ran obtained from the message bottle task card.)

Even if Su Ran remembered, it was already too late. Without the important NPC, the Sea Domain Envoy, the special task couldn’t proceed, which made him purse his lips in frustration.

No choice but to summon the Sea Domain Envoy back.

Su Ran could imagine the Sea Domain Envoy’s face looking as if he had eaten shit when he saw him again...

He was born to toil!

Sighing, Su Ran summoned Wang Cai and rode it, dashing back to the village in a trail of smoke.

Entering the village, Su Ran carefully observed the villagers’ facial expressions and was relieved to find they hadn’t changed despite the fisherman’s death.

"Gathering pearls, one gold piece each! Sell them fast, there’s a limited quantity for purchase!"

Su Ran, after stirring up his emotions, began to shout loudly in the bustling area.

"One gold? I’ll sell, I’ll sell!"

At the mention of such a high purchase price, the villagers became excited and converged around Su Ran in a flash, desperately pushing their pearls towards him for fear of being preempted by others.

"Folks, no need to rush, one by one."

Su Ran was taken aback by the villagers’ fiery enthusiasm and hurriedly uttered words of persuasion. After organizing the villagers’ order, he began trading with them individually and soon received enough quality pearls.

After bidding farewell to these simple villagers, Su Ran jogged to the chief’s thatched hut.

As luck would have it, the chief had just stepped out, and they ran into each other.

"Old sir, what are you off to do?"

"Heard someone was buying pearls, this old man wanted to try his luck and sell a few pearls to sustain a living."

Seeing Su Ran here, the chief paused with his walking stick and asked in confusion, "Young hero, your visit this time is for...?"

"Old sir, I came for that token."

Su Ran handed all the pearls to the old chief, looking at the aged NPC with anticipation.

"When did this token become so sought after?"

After pocketing the pearls, the old chief handed the token to Su Ran with a chuckle, "There are plenty more pearls now, I don’t have time to host you, young hero. This old man needs to go sell these pearls in the market."

After saying that, the old chief quickly vanished from Su Ran’s sight, leaving a trail of dust behind him.

Token in hand!

Su Ran quickly mounted the dog and left the village, lest the old chief realize he was the one buying pearls and give him a hard time. It was wiser to leave promptly!

Arriving at the old place, Su Ran did not hesitate in the least to use the token.

"Swoosh!"

A flash of white light appeared, and the Sea Domain Envoy materialized in front of Su Ran with a look of utter dejection. He stared at him blankly and asked subconsciously, "Youth, are you... deliberately messing with me?"
