Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 874 - 796: Murderous Intent Revealed

"The Ghost Clan? Hahaha, so what if it was I who released them?"

The ancient tree spirit readily admitted to its own deeds, and with a cold sneer of disdain, said, "If the Elf Clan won’t accommodate me, naturally, I won’t let them have it easy!"

As the old saying goes, the observer sees more clearly. Su Ran had already picked up on some useful information: within the forbidden area of the Elf Forest, there was a passage connected to the Ghost Clan, just like the one suppressed by the Demonic Treasure Mountain.

Su Ran grew suspicious, wondering just how many passages connected the God-Demon Continent to the world of the Ghost Clan.

Could it be that the coffin lid covering the Ghost Clan could no longer hold them down?

One could easily imagine the Ghost Clan invading the God-Demon Continent en masse, their countdown already beginning.

"You bastard, it’s all because of you that the Elf Clan has been inflicted with such a great disaster!"

Roar said with fury that reached the sky, "Finally, I’ve caught you, the chief culprit. Do you know how hard it’s been for me to play the game? Curses are everywhere, and I’ve died who knows how many times! Let’s not talk about it anymore, talking more brings tears..."

After listening to Roar recount his troubles, Su Ran was left speechless. Discussing games with an in-game boss was like playing the lute to a cow.

However, Su Ran truly sympathized with Roar, who had been playing solo for so long, still persisting in such a harsh environment, where others might have long since started over with a new account.

"Hmph! Only complete annihilation of the Elf Clan will satisfy me!"

Because of excessive pent-up anger, the tree spirit boss’s personality had become warped, its voice growing incredibly sharp, "Cursed Ghost Clan, not being vigorous, they’ve been suppressed again. Otherwise, this blood feud would be avenged!"

"What you’re doing will only bring terrible disasters to the God-Demon Continent!"

Roar wished he could chop the willow tree into pieces of firewood and stuff them directly into the furnace. But then he thought, he probably couldn’t beat it, so he had to abandon that idea.

"Disaster? Wouldn’t that be better?"

The tree spirit boss sneered coldly, "In times of chaos, heroes emerge. It’s been too long since this God-Demon Continent saw war!"

Before Roar could continue to question, Su Ran suddenly stood up from the coffin and interjected, "Since you’ve already escaped from the Elf Forest, why then were you sealed here?"

Su Ran had intended to just watch the spectacle, but he hadn’t expected Roar to only exacerbate the conflict without getting to the crux of the matter, which made Su Ran anxious. If he didn’t ask now, there might not be another chance once the tree spirit boss’s patience wore thin!

Roar glanced in Su Ran’s direction, and upon noticing the coffin on the ground, his expression drastically changed. He quickly moved away from Su Ran, afraid of catching bad luck. After this little episode, Roar’s extremely angry mood did diminish somewhat.

How daring to use a coffin as a bench, Overturning Water’s courage was truly remarkable!

"Damn it, this accursed seal!"

Su Ran’s question seemed to hit a nerve for the tree spirit, which roared angrily on the spot, its willow roots standing on end like bristling hair.

"Were it not for the Ghost Clan’s sneak attack, how would I have fallen to such a lowly state!"

Once the tree spirit’s temper settled, the willow branches gradually drooped, and its voice became less screechy, "The Ghost Clan truly can’t change their nature, despicable as always, deserving of suppression!"

"That... urn, what sort of treasure is it actually?"

Su Ran had been dwelling on that top-quality urn. Although he hadn’t gotten his hands on it, obtaining useful information about it would still be quite good.

Hearing this, Roar couldn’t help but roll his eyes. He truly couldn’t fathom why Su Ran would be interested in an object for burial, a taste not many could compare with.

"The urn? Haha, hahaha!"

Suddenly, the Tree Spirit BOSS burst into uncontrollable laughter, shaking its thick trunk non-stop as the echo resonated throughout the space.

"Damn, this BOSS is literally a lunatic. Was there really a need for such an overreaction just because I misspoke?"

Seeing the Tree Spirit’s undisguised mockery, Banana felt embarrassed for Su Ran. If it weren’t for the fact that Big Brother still needed to ask about the task information, he would have shot an arrow to shut its mouth already.

"It’s okay, maybe the urn isn’t as simple as we thought; let’s listen to what it has to say first."

Su Ran’s gaze remained fixed on the BOSS as he casually explained.

"Big Brother, can you put that coffin away first? It’s freaking me out..."

"Look at my memory, so busy chatting I almost forgot about this matter. This coffin is of such good quality, we can’t let the system have it cheap!"

After speaking, Su Ran expertly stuffed the coffin into his storage space. There was no way he was going to let the system refresh away something he had dug up with so much effort.

Not long after, the Tree Spirit finally calmed down and began emitting a pale blue light. From a crack in its dried bark, a box flew out – the very urn Su Ran had been talking about.

"Swoosh, swoosh."

A few willow branches, under the control of the Tree Spirit, wove into a fine net, gently lifting up the urn and suspending it beside the Tree Spirit.

"Foolish humans, this is the ’urn’ you speak of, right?"

The Tree Spirit BOSS looked at Su Ran with a cold laugh, a thick tone of derision in its voice. It then opened its mouth wide and swallowed the peculiar box in one gulp, making its countless willow branches wave even more vigorously.

"Damn, if you have something to say, spit it out. If you have a fart, let it out. Keeping someone in suspense like this could piss someone off!"

Banana couldn’t stand the BOSS’s way of speaking, talking halfway like a book with a torn Chapter, how aggravating!

"Ha ha, how naive. Why should I tell you? If you have the guts, take it from me!"

The Tree Spirit sneered sharply, clearly running out of patience. It rose from the ground and began to slowly move towards Su Ran and Banana, its eyes clearly showing its intent to kill.

"Overturning Water, it looks like the BOSS can’t hold back any longer and is going to make a move. Should we strike first?"

Banana’s breath hitched in tension, he even raised his golden bow, aiming in the direction of the Tree Spirit.

"Hold on, we still haven’t gotten the most crucial information. Wait a moment."

Su Ran remained calm amidst the danger and stopped Banana while speaking out, "Why would there be Sky-reaching Vine on this island?"

"How did you know that was Sky-reaching Vine?!"

The Tree Spirit’s voice carried a hint of surprise, and it asked urgently, "Are you thinking of taking on the Sky-reaching Vine?"

No shit, Sherlock, the system’s prompts made that very clear!

"I need the Sky-reaching Vine for a task. If you know the secret, help clear up my confusion. If you don’t know, then stop spouting nonsense."

Seeing the Tree Spirit’s unnatural reaction, Su Ran was certain that this was indeed the task BOSS, and now that he had found the right one, there was no worry about not completing the task.

"Daring to covet the Sky-reaching Vine, you cannot be spared, die!"

With a roar, the Tree Spirit’s demeanor flipped instantly. It leaped powerfully off the ground, charging towards Su Ran’s direction.
