134: Chapter 134 Task Rewards 134: Chapter 134 Task Rewards “What on earth was going on?

What did it all mean?

Wanting to figure out the truth, Su Ran made no move, held his breath and focused, quietly observing every action of the blacksmith.

When the blacksmith reached this location, his face gloomy, he paced around in a circle, murmuring something to himself.

Suddenly, he grabbed one of the dead bodies of a player off the ground and…

began to gnaw on it!

Astonished, Su Ran discovered he couldn’t make sense of this dungeon anymore.

It was at this moment that Su Ran realised for the first time that Youtong’s body at the top of the volcano might have disappeared in the same manner!

Su Ran restrained himself, kept his cool, and quietly listened for any useful information.

Suddenly, the blacksmith, who had finished his grotesque meal, exploded with rage, cursing, “Beasts, can’t even safeguard a high-grade Fire Origin Stone, what use are you?!”

“Nurtured within the volcanic lava for so many years, was about to evolve into a Fire Origin Heart, damn it!” the blacksmith growled malevolently, full of resentment.

A high-grade Fire Origin Stone?

Su Ran was taken aback.

Was that not the stone he had just mined?

Could it be of great use?

He suddenly relived the scene of the double-headed fire dragon bombarding the volcano earlier, so that’s what it was about!

“Without this stone, how can I evolve it into a double-headed black dragon?

Damn it, my plan, ruined overnight!”

Suddenly.

The blacksmith made a gesture with one hand, and a double-headed fire dragon appeared again, alive and well.

It let out a low moan and knelt in front of the blacksmith.

“Beast!”

The burly blacksmith let out an angry curse, leaped into the air, and landed astride the dragon’s back.

Once the blacksmith had secured his seat, both hands trembling with urgency, he took off, flying away into the distance.

Su Ran watched this scene in shock, his palm full of cold sweat.

Was it a clone?

Or a pet?

No, the double-headed fire dragon was definitely not a pet.

Pets can’t stray too far from their owners; only by using a Magic Technique to clone oneself could it possibly work.

So, the problem was, the double-headed fire dragon was a clone of the blacksmith?

A Magic Technique of cloning, rumored to exist, had actually appeared on an NPC.

Presumably then, the blacksmith was also from the demon race?

Why had he disguised himself as a member of the human race and become an NPC in the Celestial Realm dungeon?

Su Ran was a bit confused.

How could a regular dungeon be so intricately paramount?

It was clear to Su Ran now that he had stumbled upon a colossal intrigue, like a dark hand manipulating everything in the game.

Su Ran unmistakably knew; all of this ultimately stemmed from four words—the battle between gods and demons!

The war between gods and demons had never ceased.

The harmony that seemed to exist was nothing but a facade!

He suddenly felt that this game was extraordinary.

The chaotic strife between the divine and demonic realms, Su Ran felt as if he could already foresee it.

He took a deep breath, if he wanted to stake a claim in this game, he would have to become stronger!

Su Ran shook his head in order to put all these thoughts aside.

Suddenly, he remembered what the blacksmith had said earlier—the high-grade Fire Origin Stone was an evolution tool!

Or in other words, the lava bone wolf clone could evolve itself even further and potentially leap in power!

But when he thought of the blacksmith’s clone being that double-headed fire dragon, Su Ran’s excitement deflated a bit.

“Whatever, I’ve already accomplished the mission.

I’ll find the chief to submit the mission, and then leave the dungeon!” Su Ran checked the mission hints, only to find out that the dungeon mission was already completed.

Huh?

Only now did Su Ran notice that the friend column was constantly shaking.

He clicked to open it, and saw it was a message from his only friend, Handsome Cream.

“Are you still alive?”

“Reply immediately!”

“Overturning Water, are you trying to kill me with anxiety?”

Su Ran laughed.

He clicked on Handsome Cream’s message box and started to type.

“First, tell me how you were able to use the coffin?”

This question had bugged Su Ran for a while now.

“It should be a bug.

After completing this dungeon many times, I discovered that as soon as the double-headed fire dragon uses a group skill, the system forces a two-way disconnect from the target.

Hence, the system judged that we weren’t in combat at that moment, so tent-like items can be used.

And this is supposed to be a default means of completing the stage by the system.

Otherwise, with such an absurd skill, and a boss with a fixed 1000 damage, who could kill that?”

Su Ran finally understood and continued to ask, “Is it the same for other dungeons?”

“Certainly not, only the Double-headed Fire Dragon applies!”

Su Ran smirked, understanding that even with an increase in value, there’s a limit.

He had planned to exploit the dungeon a bit more, but now decided otherwise.

“Overturning Water, are you still in the dungeon?” A distraught Youtong asked, eager to know the answer.

“Hmm, I was lucky enough to escape with my life.”

“That’s great!

Overturning Water, go find the chief.

There’s a reward for completing the mission and we can earn some experience as well!” Youtong was excited, at least, the task was completed and she wouldn’t have to spend the night upset.

“Sure.”

“By the way, Overturning Water, how did you avoid the Double-headed Fire Dragon’s all-encompassing self-destruct attack?” Youtong hesitated for a moment before finally mustering the courage to ask the question.

“A pet, don’t you have one?” Su Ran countered.

“A pet?

You actually caught a baby?

We didn’t see you use it during the boss fight, did we?” Youtong was stunned, then understood.

Using a pet as a shield indeed increased the chance of avoiding the Dragon’s lethal strike.

“The baby is trash, I didn’t want to embarrass myself, but it can still be used to fend off attacks,” replied Su Ran.

“Overturning Water, oh, what am I going to do with you!” Youtong grumbled, “You’re so silly!

A player can only have one pet, unless they have a special skill.

If you want a new pet, you’ll have to wait a month.

So, most players prefer to get a high-level pet directly instead of choosing randomly.”

“‘Better safe than sorry’ is the most genuine thought of all players above level 35 towards pets.

It’s a love-hate relationship,” Youtong added.

She didn’t envy Su Ran for having a pet.

It was because of his pet that they were barely able to clear the dungeon else.”

“Doesn’t matter, just a personal preference.” Su Ran casually replied, “I’ve got a task to turn in now, so I’ll catch you later.”

Youtong was left breathless.

Was it really that boring to chat with a beauty?

Su Ran would never have used the high-level Fire Origin Stone on the Lava Bone Wolf in the dungeon, as there were chances of mishaps.

It would be wise to leave quickly.

Who knew what the blacksmith might come up with next.

“Young man, your bravery has impressed me.

Your efforts bring a hundred years of peace to our Lava Tribe.

My people and I thank you!”

The elderly chief was overjoyed upon learning that the Evil Spirit Double-headed Fire Dragon had been slain.

He held Su Ran’s hand excitedly, thanking him repeatedly.

Su Ran awkwardly pulled his hand back, replying, “The Chief is too kind.

It’s our duty and obligation as the Human Race to exterminate evil spirits.

I had no other choice!”

“Good, good, good!” The elderly chief praised, then pulled out an item and handed it to Su Ran.

“Young man, this is a token of our gratitude.

I hope you’ll accept it.”

Su Ran was overjoyed because the rewards were always the goal of doing tasks.

He quickly responded, “Thank you, Chief!”

He swiftly grabbed the item and carefully inspected it.

The more he examined it, the happier he became.
