30: Chapter 30: Ni Wudao the Good Guy
30 -30: Ni Wudao the Good Guy
Su Ran wanted to cry but couldn’t, finding the communication barrier incredibly frustrating.
He walked into his territory with a downcast expression, suddenly remembering the village chief’s house in his village.
What the hell was the village chief’s house for?
Taking advantage of his Agility Level 7, Su Ran dashed towards the village chief’s house.
It was very dark inside, with only a grey skeleton pacing back and forth.
When the skeleton saw Su Ran burst in, it grabbed Su Ran’s arm and started shaking it non-stop.
“Oh noble Lord, you’re finally here!”
Huh?
Is there a quest?
“Who are you?”
“I am Liu Sheng.
In life, I was the village chief of Novice Village, now after death, I’ve pledged allegiance to the Lord and become the steward of this territory.”
“Oh, so it’s you, Steward Liu.
My apologies!
You needed something?”
“Oh, my lord, I need your help!
That damned Dark Bone Cat stole my beloved skeleton vase today.
Without it, I can’t eat or sleep at ease!”
Dark Bone Cat?
Su Ran quickly steadied the agitated Liu Sheng, consoling him, “Steward Liu, calm down.
I have no idea where that Dark Bone Cat could be.
If I did, I would definitely help you.”
“That vile creature is near the Dark Swamp of the Sinister Grave Ridge.
Your lordship’s aid will never be forgotten!” Liu Sheng almost burst into tears out of emotion.
Hold up, how on earth do you know this?
Do you have penetrating vision or something?
Guess you can’t apply logical reasoning to video game quests…
“Ding!
Congratulations to the player for accepting the quest – Recover the Skeleton Vase.
Quest duration: unlimited.”
Su Ran suddenly remembered, wasn’t this the legendary novice task?
The lord skeleton fiddled with the grave weeds, candles, etc.
in his bladder.
Right, enough medicine.
Let’s go!
…
Today is a good day~ Whatever I think about can be achieved~
Humming a small tune, Su Ran swaggered towards the distant Dark Swamp.
Huh, what’s that noise?
Not good!
The little skeleton quickly moved to hide in a large, decaying hollow tree, holding his breath…
oh, wait, skeletons don’t breathe.
He peeked through the cracked bark at the distant scene.
A sneaky figure approached, and the figure seemed familiar.
The person wore a heavy helmet and had a large powerful frame, which was obvious even when he was hunched over.
The player separated the weeds, finally reaching a place not far from where Su Ran was hiding.
Ni Wudao!
What was he doing here?
Was once not enough?
Ni Wudao parted the dense weeds and spat angrily, cursing, “I, the mighty human race player above level 30, resorting to stealthing in a low-level map.
It’s so humiliating to have been killed by a low-level skeleton BOSS, it would be a joke if anyone found out!”
“Why the hell do I care if Novice Village is lost?
I’ve already died once, lost all my equipment and I couldn’t even get a bit of sympathy!”
“Damned Skeleton BOSS, I’m going to skin you and drain your marrow!”
“Every time you respawn, I’m going to kill you.
Ahhh, that might help to ease my hatred!”
Oh, did he really hate him that much?
Su Ran was a little embarrassed, and almost rushed up to tell Ni Wudao that skeletons don’t have skin…
He watched as Ni Wudao grumbled and walked quite a distance before him.
With a slight embarrassment, Su Ran threw three joss papers towards Ni Wudao’s ass.
The three joss papers ignited in mid-air, sending bright sparks as they instantly burst into flames.
Like fireballs, they chased after the unsuspecting Ni Wudao.
“Boom!” “-129”
Caught off guard by the sudden pain to his butt, Ni Wudao immediately turned to curse, “Which son of a b***…” Before he could finish his sentence, another joss paper plastered his face.
“-129”
“Boom!” “-129”
“Damn, damn, damn!” Ni Wudao looked at his dwindling health after taking another hit and leaped from sheer fright.
“Boom!” “-129”
After taking another hit, Ni Wudao screamed and started to run, looking around for the skull boss that attacked him.
He wanted to dodge but the dense shrubbery around him seriously limited the evasive maneuvers.
It should be that damn skull!
Its attack became much stronger!
How can a low-level boss be so brutal?
Ni Wudao couldn’t help shedding silent tears.
Had he known the skeleton boss was so cruel, he would not have dared to venture into this place alone!
“Boom!” “-129”
Again!
Ni Wudao, whose health was almost depleted, couldn’t use the Healing Potion while in combat.
But, he finally noticed the skeleton was hiding behind a decayed log while attacking him, proving that its intelligence was worryingly high.
“Jump Cut!”
Ni Wudao jumped in mid-air and slammed his dark double-handed sword towards the skeleton’s hiding spot.
“Boom!” “-129”
The poor Ni Wudao flew sideways like a corpse from a battlefield disaster, dropping a double-handed sword and many healing potions in the process.
In the Corpse-locking and Spirit-bewildering Array under Sinister Grave Ridge, even resurrection was not possible.
Enraged by this, Ni Wudao logged off immediately, threw his gaming helmet harshly on the bed, and started swearing.
But after a while, he picked up his phone and made a call.
Looking at the scattered equipment and potions, Su Ran sighed, “Why?
He traveled such a long distance just to donate equipment.”
Su Ran picked up the weapons and Healing Potions dropped by Ni Wudao, stashed the potions into his bag, and picked up the warm double-handed sword to check its attributes.
[Double Ring Greatsword] (silver) (two-handed)
Attack: 14
Special Ability: Bloodsucking— This weapon has a 5% chance of sucking blood taking 30% of the damage inflicted.
Required level: 30
Note: You will know its value when you run out of potions.
A level 30 weapon too?
It should be worth a lot of money.
Even though its attack is not as good as the broadsword, it is after all, made of silver.
Su Ran thought happily.
As a gesture of gratitude, Su Ran bounced twice on Ni Wudao’s corpse.
But the crunching sound from his body made him feel like he was about to fall apart.
However, he overlooked the bloodsucking attribute.
High-level bloodsucking equipment is hard to come by in the market, let alone silver ones!
Su Ran casually tossed the Double Ring Greatsword into his bag.
He suddenly realized how fortunate he was not to have a penis; otherwise, the abrupt action might have caused self-emasculation!
The little skeleton mumbled something under its breath while kicking the grass, heading towards its quest location—the Dark Swamp.
The mission was located west of the Skeleton Village at the Dark Swamp.
The muddy path extended into the Dark Swamp and ended abruptly.
The Dark Swamp was not big, covering an area of a few dozen meters, therefore one could see its border clearly.
Ominous clouds loomed over the swamp, where a solitary shriveled tree stood, adding to the eerie atmosphere of despair.
Su Ran began cautiously exploring the vicinity of the Dark Swamp.
“Dark Bone Cat!” Even though Su Ran only had dark sockets for eyes, he was not nearsighted.
He indeed saw several black wild cats lounging near the swamp.
There was however something strange bulging and contracting on the surface of the swamp?
Su Ran looked closely and realized that it was a swarm of flying bugs that constantly buzzed about, giving the impression of a gigantic heart throbbing in the sky.
