Chapter 1934: Chapter 1604: Things Are Getting Out of Hand (Double-Length) (2)
But.
No matter if they retreated ten meters or twenty meters, they couldn’t escape the attacks of the arrows. This left them both shocked and incredulous. At this moment, Banana felt like the almighty Buddha. No matter how they tried to escape, they couldn’t get out of the palm of this young man’s hand. When someone’s attack range is this vast, explaining it with hidden professions is simply not convincing enough. Calling it monstrous wouldn’t be excessive!
“Brother, if we retreat any further, we’ll completely lose them. What should we do?”
The group, under the threat of arrows, had already retreated to the territory of the Undead Skeletons, feeling frustrated to the point of madness. However, they also felt quite fortunate. Luckily, Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained hadn’t intervened before; only the archer shooting alone hadn’t caused them much loss.
“The Dark Abyss doesn’t have many junctions, even if we let them go three miles, we can still find them!”
The leading brother didn’t show much concern, sneering, “The deeper we go, the more powerful the monsters in this Abyss become. By then, they’ll be too occupied to bother with us!”
“Brother, I’m worried that before we even get to the depths, the coffin will open. Wouldn’t we have labored for nothing?”
“A coffin that even Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained pays attention to, how could it easily open? Even if he wants to, the system won’t allow it!”
The leading brother said confidently, but just as he planned to give his men another heads-up, a large number of players suddenly poured in.
“Where’s Overturning Water? Does anyone know?”
“Need we ask? Besides the deepest part of this Dark Abyss, where else could be challenging for Overturning Water? Let’s go, let’s go!”
The players swarmed towards the depths, bustling like at a market fair, hurriedly disappearing into the darkness. Faced with this unexpected situation, the twenty-odd players were dumbstruck.
“Brother, are these people from Dancing Demons? How come they have no discipline?”
One of the subordinates voiced his doubts, unable to believe they were sent by a major guild.
“Didn’t you hear they were talking about Overturning Water? These people came for Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained!”
The team leader said angrily and chaotically, “Who leaked the news?!”
“Brother, it was you.”
Almost everyone said in unison, with no doubt.
“Nonsense! I just mentioned it to Dancing Demons, how could I tell this bunch?”
“Brother, if Dancing Demons spread the news, ultimately, isn’t the source still you?”
“…”
At that moment, a large number of players were teleported in, led by the renowned figure, Evil Demon.
“Dancing Demons at work, those unrelated hurry up and leave!”
As soon as Evil Demon appeared, he immediately exerted his influence, scanning around the venue, naturally becoming the focal point of attention.
He led roughly three thousand subordinates behind him, all shouting in unison to boost morale—this was a common tactic used by Dancing Demons Guild, and its intimidation effect was indeed impressive.
“Wow, now this is the kind of momentum a big guild should have; just looking at it gets one’s blood pumping!”
The third brother, holding a wolf fang club, envied the scene immensely, couldn’t help but fantasize. If Evil Demon were swapped with him, he might be even more boastful than these guys!
“It’s time to leave here.”
The leading brother sighed, his expression becoming complex. He might be a bit reckless, but not stupid. He already couldn’t control the current situation, and his plans had turned into empty dreams. Even if forcibly staying here, they wouldn’t have a chance at that Dragon Head Coffin. Rather than wasting time here, it would be better to retreat and avoid a total defeat.
The twenty-odd subordinates rarely objected. With their limited manpower, any force could easily swallow them. Survival in cracks was an accurate description; even dreaming of obtaining that Dragon Head Coffin was utterly impossible!
…
“Banana, I’ll tell you an unfortunate news.”
Su Ran said unexpectedly, having just received news from Young Master Fa. He learned that their venture into the Dark Abyss had stirred up a storm across the town.
“What?”
Banana was still immersed in the previous victory, fully showcasing the advantages of remote output. Even holding the coffin felt much easier. He didn’t take Su Ran’s words to heart.
“You will soon face a whole lot of enemies; this coffin is destined not to let you appraise easily.”
“What’s there to fear? If they dare to come, I’ll shoot one for each and shoot pairs for a duo!”
Banana hadn’t realized what a lot of enemies meant, full of confidence in his shooting skills.
“Suit yourself, just don’t cry then!”
Su Ran grinned. Their distance to the Skeleton Saint was already halfway. As long as they could bring out the Skeleton Saint, no matter how many players came, it would be pointless. What they should pay attention to now wasn’t the players chasing them but the squad of skeletal warriors wandering ahead!
It’s worth noting that these skeletal warriors wield bone scythes, boasting ranged attack techniques, with melee combat being even sharper. Passing through here safely in a short time would be difficult!
Oh, the Calamity Avoiding Charm!
Su Ran finally realized how ridiculous his previous thought was. Clearly, he possessed a cheating artifact like the Calamity Avoiding Charm but planned to charge head-on. Wasn’t that seeking trouble?
“Cry? Why would I cry? If they want to deal with me, let them first tackle those skeletal warriors!”
Taking advantage of the moment with no disturbances, he gently placed the coffin on the ground, fearing making sounds that would trigger the hostility of the skeletal warriors. Then he took out a Calamity Avoiding Charm, smiling, “Brother, the Calamity Avoiding Charm you gave me is extremely useful. If it weren’t for this coffin, I’d really be reluctant to waste it!”
“Uh.”
So Banana had already thought about this, no wonder he had such confidence. Su Ran didn’t say more and also used a Calamity Avoiding Charm, easily passing through the skeletal warriors’ territory with Banana, with no difficulty at all.
“Brother, shall we wait, let these people come and see if they dare to tackle these skeletal warriors? We can also secretly help these warriors to make things a bit difficult for them. What do you think?”
“Banana, you’re really wicked, but it’s indeed a nice idea.”
Su Ran fully agreed with Banana’s suggestion. To deal with these ill-intent players, they must be taught a lesson!
Poor Dragon Head Coffin just got left on the ground again, becoming a mere decoration.
“Brother, I learned this from you, so have the nerve to say that about me!”
Banana wouldn’t take the blame, and just as he spoke, the sound of messy footsteps was heard; his eyes lit up. “The show is about to start! Brother, shall we bet on who kills more?”
“Are you sure you want to bet with me?”
Su Ran looked at Banana with a half-smile, gesturing with the Ice Crystal Bone Scythe in his hand. “Would you like to add a wager?”
“It’s not me, standing in for the account.”
Banana immediately refused; it was just a joke, but it was taken seriously. If there really would be a wager, he definitely had no chance of winning. Turning ten bets into ten losses!
“Darn it, shameless!”
“Learned from you too, I’m terribly sorry.”
…
During the conversation between the two, thousands of players appeared in their sights. The chaos of their formation was unbearable to witness, but judging from the atmosphere, they seemed quite enthusiastic. Many were shouting Overturning Water’s name, clearly true fans.
“Those shouting my name, let’s not kill them first.”
Su Ran quickly suggested, afraid of accidental killings.
“So many calling your name, how can I tell who is who?”
Banana felt his head growing big, simply giving up on the attack, leaving life or death to the skeletal warriors to decide. If the monsters killed them, it wouldn’t be his fault!
“No rush, these people are just appetizers; the main course hasn’t arrived yet, more are coming!”
Su Ran knew it was precisely his fame attracting a large number of players; if there weren’t enemies among them, that would be strange!
Believe it or not, the skeletal warriors kept them outside. While they were discussing strategies, Evil Demon led a group of followers chasing up.
“Haha, the main course has arrived, now there’ll be a good show to watch!”
Banana was both surprised and delighted, enormously excited.
