221: Chapter 220: Trouble Caused by the Rebirth Gold Bar 221: Chapter 220: Trouble Caused by the Rebirth Gold Bar “This bastard’s stealth skills aren’t bad, ‘Break Invisibility’ is useless now. We have to be cautious,” Su Ran replied, his gaze sweeping across the surrounding flora and fauna. Suddenly, A purple flame was thrown forcefully by Su Ran, a hefty pillar of fire grew instantly, covering a 3X3 range. A faint silhouette was forced out by the aggressive burning purple fire, trying to desperately escape from the entwinement of the purple fire. At that moment, Su Ran’s paper-burning attack, together with the fire cannon that Black Crow had been brewing, assaulted the assailant, giving rise to a gust of wind that made the grass sway wildly. “Boom, Boom!” Two consecutive moves sent the vicious player flying, but also took him out of the attack range of the Netherworld Purple Fire. In this moment, Su Ran saw the attacker clearly. It was the warrior player he had met at the auction house, the one who had the Rebirth Gold Bar! This man wore yellowish-brown heavy armor, had triangular eyes, a hooked nose, and a face that was innately harsh. Once spotted by him, it spelled trouble! “Heh, so you’ve discovered me!” The surprise attack had failed, but this warrior showed no signs of discouragement, chuckling softly, “Masked man where is your Rebirth Gold Bar?” Su Ran ignored him, while Black Crow swore at this obnoxious player, “Bastard, did we offend you in any way? You attacked us right off the bat, are you on some kind of crazed killing spree?” “Heh heh, it’s too late now. If you had your Rebirth Gold Bar, it would’ve been perfect. I could’ve gotten two gold bars at once, that would’ve been a dream come true,” the warrior player licked the sharp edge of his knife, revealing a menacing expression. However, an awkward moment ensued. The warrior player cut his own tongue trying to look tough. Blood started to drip from his mouth, causing him to hop around in pain. “Pfft… Hahahaha!” Black Crow broke into hearty laughter, as if he’d just heard the funniest joke in the world. His earlier gloominess instantly vanished. Su Ran, on the other hand, showed no mercy, throwing paper ashes at him in an attempt to deal the killing blow right then and there! If we can’t be friends, then why show any kindness! Su Ran knew that showing mercy to an enemy was equivalent to being cruel to oneself! “Thwack!” The unprepared warrior player was knocked onto his rear end by the burning paper. He jumped three feet high, clutching his injured mouth and fled the scene. “Chase after him!” Su Ran wouldn’t let the tiger go back to the mountain. The player’s invisibility was his nemesis. Only by eliminating him would he stand a better chance of surviving in the Rebirth Gate scenario. Black Crow understood and followed Su Ran’s lead, pursuing in the direction of the perpetrator. What surprised Su Ran was that the player seemed to be quite familiar with the terrain. In just a while, he disappeared from sight, leaving them without any direction. “Damn, that sly rat, he is as cunning as a rabbit!” Black Crow, unable to catch up, panted heavily, merely venting his frustration with words. “Being targeted feels really awful. Black Crow, you should be the first attack target. This guy… He is after your Rebirth Gold Bar,” Su Ran said to Black Crow seriously. “You must be vigilant at all times and not give him an advantage by making a careless mistake.” “Damn, I didn’t realize that. No wonder I was attacked the moment I showed up. It was because of the shiny item I was carrying!” Black Crow took out the Rebirth Gold Bar and was about to hand it to Su Ran. However, a look of reluctance crossed his face. He then made up his mind and placed the Rebirth Gold Bar back into his bag. “I exchanged for it with stone powder. Why should I give it back? This treasure is mine! If anyone tries to take it, I will show them who’s boss!” Black Crow’s greedy nature took control. Trying to snatch something from him was like trying to kill him. Su Ran smiled wryly. This guy would surely live up to the old saying: Men die for wealth, birds for food. “In that case, let’s hurry up and open a mystery chest. The sooner we get this over with, the better!” Su Ran said to Black Crow. Without the Rebirth Gold Bar, the assailant would lose his desire to attack them. “That’s a good idea. Let’s go, let’s go!” Upon hearing about the mystery chest, Black Crow’s spirits lifted immediately. He started to urge Su Ran to hurry and choose a direction so they could find the rare treasure, the Mystery Chest. Su Ran didn’t rush to make a choice. He swept aside some long grass and carefully observed the surroundings. Suddenly, he noticed a structure to the south. Located quite far away, it was easy to overlook. “Let’s go south!” Su Ran gave a quick indication, pointing in the direction of the mysterious structure. Immediately, the two embarked on another new adventure. However, their journey this time was slightly slower as they had to be constantly on guard against sneak attacks from the snake-like player. “Overturning Water, I forgot to ask. How did you manage to spot that player?” Black Crow asked, puzzled. After all, he hadn’t noticed any signs at all. “There’s no wind here. If a person moves, the grass will be startled,” Su Ran replied, unfazed. “The move I triggered is called ‘Netherworld Purple Fire’. Sёarᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. It’s a group attack skill. As long as the general location is correct, there’s an 80-90% chance of revealing him.” “Netherworld Purple Fire? I’ve never heard of it before. This skill looks cool and seems difficult to master.” Black Crow looked at Su Ran with envy. He had yet to master a single attack move, yet Su Ran had already learned a group attack skill. Was this due to his good luck or was it because his own comprehension skills were too poor? Soon, they arrived at their destination, a three-story tower stood tall before their eyes. Occasionally, sounds of battles, screams, and roars could be heard from the second floor. Judging from the sound, the battle situation there was quite intense, arousing an eager desire to find out what was happening. “Overturning Water, what should we do? Someone’s already there!” Black Crow blurted out anxiously. At this point, he wasn’t worried about the BOSS being snatched away by others. What he feared most was that ‘his’ mystery chest might fall into someone else’s hands. “Take it easy, you’re asking me as if I would know?” Su Ran glared at him with annoyance. Black Crow was always indecisive when it came to decision making. “When we enter, we’ll play it by ear. Don’t act on your accord!” Su Ran was simply tired of Black Crow’s reckless behaviour and took the initiative to caution him. “Creak~” Su Ran and Black Crow pushed the door open and entered. Black Crow was the first to enter. When Su Ran was about to close the door, he took the opportunity to peek outside the tower for any abnormalities. The first floor was empty. It goes without saying that the monsters that had respawned had already been wiped out by other players long ago. Any chests or similar items had also disappeared. It was as if bandits had sacked the village, leaving the outside players with no hope. “Overturning Water, let’s go upstairs!” Black Crow was already standing at the staircase entrance, anxiously waving at Su Ran and urging him to keep moving. Su Ran took a few quick steps to catch up with Black Crow, and the two of them carefully made their way towards the second floor of the tower. “Damn!” Black Crow merely peeped out for a second before sucking his head back in. His face wore an expression of utter horror. He grabbed Su Ran and immediately ran back down the stairs, back to the empty first floor.
