224: Chapter 223: Terrifying Corpse 224: Chapter 223: Terrifying Corpse Su Ran looked at the Black Crow, who had lost his excitement, and joked, “Go ahead, this is a rare opportunity that may present you with a super rare secret book. Plus, there’s a side dish. Isn’t it wonderful to eat while studying?” “What side dish? I think that’s a snake feast! If you want to go, go ahead, but be careful!” The Black Crow dared not look at the swarm of black snakes. Just thinking about that little scene gave him goosebumps all over his body. “How can we get to the skeleton without alarming these black snakes?” Su Ran asked softly. “Heh, you still want to not alert these black snakes? Look at that skeleton, it’s easy to get in, but hard to get out!” The Black Crow couldn’t help but interject, but his eyes were darting around, seeming to be looking for an escape route. He didn’t want to stay in this ghost of a place for a moment longer! “Easy to get in, but hard to get out?” This sentence seemed to awaken Su Ran. Searᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He shifted his thinking, putting aside the black snakes and focusing on the path under his feet. “Huh?” Su Ran exclaimed. The ground in front of him was marked with many patterns. These secret patterns were everywhere, emanating a mysterious aura. Only then did Su Ran understand that they had fallen into an array. Those black snakes could be the death trap within the array! Where then, was the array’s focal point? How could one break the array? “What are you thinking about? Let’s find a way to escape! These black snakes seem hard to deal with. By finding a mechanism, we might be able to teleport to the third floor!” The Black Crow took a few steps back, beckoning Su Ran to leave quickly. “If you want to go, you can go first, but I won’t be content without any gains.” Su Ran didn’t pay attention to the Black Crow, but instead summoned his Clone Magma Bone Bear, which obediently stood by his side. “Aha, I forgot you had a pet. Why not let your pet draw away these annoying black snakes, thus making things easier for us?” Seeing Su Ran summon the Bone Bear, the Black Crow immediately came up to Su Ran, excitedly suggesting. “It’s not that simple. Look down at your feet. This should be an enchantment seal, like the Rat Raksha we encountered previously, imprisoned by the altar and unable to move. I have a feeling that it is the same situation here. The swarm of black snakes is the best proof!” Su Ran pointed to the ground, his face grave. “You’re right. This place is so dark that I hadn’t noticed! But isn’t it easy to break this array? Just rub it with your foot, and you’re done. How simple!” The Black Crow retorted disdainfully and started to vigorously rub his big foot on the ground. “When you’re done, let me know, so I can share the benefits!” “Alright!” Su Ran noticed the Black Crow rubbing even harder on the ground… Well, it’s hard for ordinary people to understand the mindset of a teenager. Su Ran paced around, closely observing the distribution of the snakes. When he walked to a corner, he suddenly noticed a very subtle pattern. It acted like a boundary, blocking the black snakes and creating a narrow path leading straight to the skeleton. “This is… the entrance?” However, Su Ran was not certain. There were too many black snakes. It would spell doom if he made a wrong step. He glanced back at the Black Crow who was not far away, still engrossed in rubbing the ground. Su Ran didn’t call out to him but summoned his Clone Bone Bear over. Su Ran carefully guided the Dark Skeleton Bear onto this road of no return, tiptoeing across the thin patterns as if walking on a tightrope. His pace was exceptionally slow and a mass of black snakes swam up to the bear, flicking their forked tongues, seeming to avoid something. Not a single black snake took the initiative to attack. Su Ran’s heart was in his throat. It felt like he had crossed a century, and finally, the Dark Skeleton Bear safely reached the place where the corpse was seated. “Phew!” Su Ran heaved a sigh of relief, only he knew what he had just been through. “It’s not going to revive itself, right?” Su Ran stared at the skeleton in front of him, vigilant. He knew that even if the skeleton suddenly stood up, it would pose no threat, considering this was only a game, anything was possible. Sure enough. When Su Ran stepped next to the skeleton, the skull of the skeleton suddenly twisted, its eye sockets were hollow as if it was laughing. Damn, If this was reality, it might have scared the guts out of anyone, right? “Hahaha, it’s been so many years since anyone from the outside world came. Finally, you’re here,” the skeleton seemed to have anticipated this day and laughed heartily. However, there was obvious anger in its laughter, “But why did you degenerate to become the slave of the Human Race?” “How pathetic, how regrettable. You sympathize with the foreign race and even dream of obtaining my inheritance. What a joke!” The skeleton seemed to have gone mad, its anger flaring up fiercely, and its skull twisting grotesquely. Su Ran was taken aback. This was definitely about to escalate. He hurriedly glanced around, only to find that there was nothing around him. A pitch-black light shield isolated the Skeleton Bear. Not even his line of sight could penetrate it. His body, numerous black snakes, Black Crow, and the cellar all disappeared. “Little Skeleton Bear, scared? Fear is the best delicacy. When you stepped into this place, the formation naturally activated. Will you, who will die in despair and helplessness, bloom a bright red blood flower?” “Blame it on you for abandoning your identity as a citizen of the Demon World! Die!!” Upon finishing its words, an apparition emerged from the skeleton framework, transformed into a massive skull. Emitting a green ghostly fire, it tore through the air with a chilling sound, heading straight for the Dark Skeleton Bear. Su Ran looked at this increasingly enormous ghost skull, but he could only smile bitterly. He wondered what had led to the decline of this Skeleton King’s clan to such an extent that it made him sigh. Su Ran did not command his avatar to struggle as the massive skull swallowed the Skeleton Bear whole, chewed down on its bones, and gnawed on its skeleton. Only after it had drained the Dark Skeleton Bear of its health did it finally stay motionless. Soon, Su Ran noticed that the pitch-black light shield had disappeared. The skeleton left behind by the Skeleton Bear had also vanished, and the mysterious skeleton on the ground, just like before, was devoid of any life. If Su Ran wasn’t able to share the vision of the Dark Skeleton Bear, he would probably have been fooled. What a clever trap to snare the unwary! Su Ran, now having confidence, stepped onto the path formed by the secret patterns, knowing full well that it was dangerous, yet he treaded on! Following the path where the Dark Skeleton Bear treaded, Su Ran successfully reached the side of the mysterious skeleton corpse. Still pretending to be dead, I really want to kick you flying!! “Hahaha, human, I’ve finally been able to see you!” The surrounding black seal barrier rises abruptly, isolating Su Ran from the outside world. The skeletal frames suddenly twisted its skull, giving a sinister smile to Su Ran. Su Ran, who had already experienced this once, was not surprised at all. He stood still in the same place, calmly waiting for the cunning skeleton to finish. “You are the most composed human I’ve ever seen, but unfortunately, you were born into the wrong clan!” There was rage in the skeleton’s eyes as it gnashed its teeth, saying: “I am in this state thanks to your human clan! Barely surviving till today just to see the day when the Human Race is slaughtered by the forces of darkness!”
