Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 2297 - 1796: Buddha Statue Acquired, Grave Digging (Double - )
"Overturning Water, come quickly, there’s a hole in the wall!"
Just when Su Ran was pondering how to solve the puzzle, her creamy voice came over in surprise.
"Hole? Where?"
Su Ran’s spirits lifted; earlier, she had obtained a bone bead from killing a skeleton, which hadn’t been used so far. If there really was a hole, it should be used to embed the bone bead, and they could escape from this space!
But when she arrived at the place Creamy pointed out, she realized that this hole wasn’t what she’d expected; it was too small for the bone bead to fit.
"Overturning Water, what are you going to do?"
Creamy glanced at the hole but saw nothing, so she directly asked, "Should we dig it open?"
"Okay."
Little Sister’s suggestion matched the thoughts in Su Ran’s mind. Since the bone bead couldn’t be used, keeping this hole wasn’t helpful; it was better to dig it open for a quick solution. More importantly, it wouldn’t require wasting brainpower to think of a way to solve the puzzle.
"Bang!"
The novice chisel struck the wall, but it didn’t damage it. Su Ran was bounced away, landing three or four meters away.
"Looks like this terrain can’t be dug."
Su Ran sulkily put away the novice chisel, feeling a bit defeated, but luckily there were no outsiders here. She wiped the dust off her body, walked to the wall, and pushed hard. It didn’t budge, but when she reached in with her finger and pulled gently, she heard a ’creak’ as a gap appeared in the wall.
"Secret door!"
Creamy looked at the wall in surprise, "So this hole was meant to pull the door, it’s basically a freebie question!"
"But if you think too much, this question could be difficult."
Su Ran secretly felt lucky. Her pulling the door action hadn’t been thought through, it was just a spontaneous action with miraculous effect. Even she didn’t know how to explain it, so she didn’t say more and pulled the secret door open forcefully. The two of them entered this hidden space.
With the Firebird present, the whole space was illuminated in fiery red. Su Ran easily saw the scene before her, which included a stone platform. Three tombs were situated on the platform, and in front of the central tomb, there was a cauldron, with walls of fiery red emitting a scorching temperature. It was no wonder when they entered this space, the temperature increased significantly; it was the cauldron’s doing.
"Overturning Water, which tomb should we dig first?"
Creamy glanced at the three tombs, unable to take her eyes off the central one, "Overturning Water, dig this one, it’s big, there might be good stuff inside!"
"Little Sister, aren’t you afraid of tomb ghosts? Why do you seem more excited than me?"
Su Ran gave Creamy a curious look, feeling puzzled, "Are you just pretending?"
"Didn’t I tell you, with you around, I’m not afraid of anything. The main thing is, having been with you for so long, I’ve become numb to tombs because of exposure, having bought coffins and eaten grave grass twice, which is unforgettable. These tombs are indeed difficult to affect me mentally."
Creamy said helplessly, she had once bought many coffins from Su Ran and eaten grave grass twice, which was unforgettable. These few tombs indeed couldn’t affect her psychologically.
"Ahem, so that’s how it is. Alright, I’ll go dig the grave!"
Su Ran felt she’d spoiled Wan’er, if Old Man Li found out, she couldn’t imagine the consequences...
Then.
Su Ran climbed onto the stone platform, not rushing to dig the grave, but heading toward the cauldron instead.
"Overturning Water, don’t touch the cauldron; be careful not to get burned!"
Creamy saw Su Ran’s intention and quickly advised, even from a distance, she could feel the cauldron’s temperature. Approaching it would only cause trouble.
"No problem, no problem, I’m invulnerable to water and fire!"
Su Ran grinned at Creamy, confidently walking to the cauldron, poised her spine, and collided against the cauldron deliberately.
"Don’t..."
Creamy didn’t understand where Su Ran got the confidence, quickly trying to stop him, but it was too late; before her words landed, Su Ran had already collided against the cauldron, making her avert her gaze, unable to watch and involuntarily shutting her eyes.
"What don’t?"
Su Ran’s hoarse voice sounded beside Creamy, "Hmm? Little Sister, why are your eyes shut? Got dirt in them?"
"You... you’re okay?"
Creamy opened her eyes in surprise, seeing Su Ran standing intact on the stone platform, with no burns in sight, asking incredulously, "Your body really doesn’t fear heat?"
"Hey, my whole body fears heat, except my pelvis."
Being an Undead skeleton, Su Ran was most satisfied with his pelvis; it was practically the biggest loophole. He mustn’t let the game backend know, should they restrict the storage ability, he’d be doomed.
"Strange, where did the cauldron go?"
Creamy noticed the discrepancy and surprisingly asked Su Ran, "How did you perform such a trick? How did such a large cauldron disappear?"
"It’s now owned by Su."
Su Ran couldn’t help feeling smug, subtly caressing his pelvis, then pulling out the novice chisel, tackling the central tomb without hesitation and digging away.
"Ah?"
Creamy never figured out how Su Ran claimed the blazing cauldron. Could he really get it just by arching his back? Possible?
But since Su Ran had started digging the tomb, she refrained from asking further, swallowing her doubts back, as long as their circumstances were favorable.
"Ding! Congratulations Player Skeleton, obtained special item: Grave Grass."
"..."
As Su Ran continued to dig, the system notification kept ringing. These grave grass, burning paper, incense-like items were ignored by him, holding no interest, pending new tomb offerings.
"Ding! Congratulations Player Skeleton, obtained special item: Ghostly Charm!"
What?
Ghostly Charm?!
Speaking of which, before Su Ran could even taunt these items for being unappealing, a novel item appeared. How amusing!
Su Ran lost interest in further digging and quickly stashed the chisel away, holding the newly unearthed item in hand, curious about its properties.
[Ghostly Charm] (Special)
Affix it to the target, rendering them lost, lasting 3-10 seconds.
"Lost state? Nice!"
Su Ran felt delighted; this state of being lost was akin to a maze, impossible to find direction. This meant she had acquired an impressive item, capable of overturning the tide at crucial moments!
"Overturning Water, what are you holding?"
Seeing Su Ran holding a talisman in a daze, Creamy asked curiously, waiting for his explanation.
"This? Just a tomb offering dug up just now!"
Su Ran replied casually, stashing the Ghostly Charm back in her waist and continuing to dig the tomb, hoping to uncover more stabilizing talismans for future safety.
"Offering..."
Creamy’s interest waned instantly, asking no more, circling the stone platform for useful clues to prepare for their departure from the place.
With Su Ran’s relentless digging, the tomb didn’t last long, succumbing to the novice chisel, exposing a turquoise green coffin adorned with mysterious patterns, undeniably of high-end goods.
Su Ran grew more intrigued, approaching and rubbing her pelvis against it.
Unfortunately, this time didn’t yield the desired outcome; the coffin remained stationary, making her abandon the thought of claiming ownership.
"Overturning Water, open the coffin, see if there’s any treasure inside!"
Creamy circled again, failing to spot anything useful, decided to stand still watching Su Ran dig the grave. Upon seeing the green coffin, she eagerly prompted Su Ran to open it quickly and satisfy her curiosity.
"Alright."
