Taking advantage of the ant guard’s weak defenses, Su Ran delivered a powerful attack, instantly drawing the ire of the male ant guard.

The Lava Bone Wolf leapt to his aid, blocking the ant guard’s counterattack and engaging it in battle.

The ant guard wielded its skills, gnashing its jaws against the Lava Bone Wolf, as if it wanted to snap its bones.

However, the Lava Bone Wolf had a significant amount of Qi Blood, undeterred by the damage, it bared its fangs and fought back against the ant guard.

Using this opportunity, Su Ran continuously bombarded the ant guard with his flaming attack, even the recovered Big Blood Bull wielding a blood-colored sword joined him in striking the ant guard.

His attacks were swift and fierce, leaving no room for defense.

He knew his aggro could not surpass the fireball attacks of Su Ran.

In no time, the male ant guard had fallen under the combined assault of Su Ran, the Big Blood Bull, and the wolf, dropping a silver ring and two Healing Potions.

“The Healing Potion is mine!”

Seeing the Healing Potion, Big Blood Bull’s eyes lit up like he had seen a beautiful woman.

He clasped it in his hands, refusing to let go.

Shaking his head with amusement, Su Ran moved forward a few steps, taking the silver ring into his possession and placing it into his bag.

He realized he needed to accumulate these items to strengthen his territory.

“Bro, wait until you’ve identified the properties of that ring,” Big Blood Bull said, looking at the ring Su Ran had just taken, devoid of any intent to compete.

He’d said he only wanted mission items, and none of the other gear at all!.

“No need to identify it, just throw it to the system.”

“What!

You are so wasteful!

Selling it in a shop would be better than giving it for system recycling!” Big Blood Bull lamented, chastising Su Ran.

“You wouldn’t understand.”

“Bro, if you explain, I will!”

“No use explaining to a bull.”

…

Feeling frustrated, Big Blood Bull didn’t hesitate and jumped down the tunnel, leaving Su Ran dumbfounded.

Apparently, this wasn’t his first run of this place.

“Bro, come down quick, there’s no danger here!” Big Blood Bull, having landed, looked up towards Su Ran and gestured for him to follow.

Su Ran, after some silence, jumped down as well and asked Big Blood Bull, “Is the boss of the Veiny Ants extremely powerful?”

“Huh?

How do you know?” Big Blood Bull looked at Su Ran in surprise.

“You’ve been here more than once.

If it weren’t challenging, you would’ve completed this mission a long time ago.”

“Hah.

It’s indeed a bit difficult, but there isn’t much time left for this mission.

I can only make one last attempt,” Big Blood Bull replied sheepishly.

“Luckily, I ran into you.

If all else fails, I’ll just give up.”

Last resort?

Act out of desperation?

Su Ran felt like exploding.

He considered leaving Big Blood Bull on the spot but decided to stick around; true comrades were a rare breed these days.

He had his Town Recall Scroll for an emergency escape.

“It’s incredible that you have such a dazzling Bone Wolf pet!

Bro, share its stats; I want to take a look.” Big Blood Bull eagerly stared at the Lava Bone Wolf.

“No.”

…

Under the guidance of Big Blood Bull, they reached a relatively expansive underground hall through a winding tunnel.

The light was dim, but the luminescent flames emanating from the Lava Bone Wolf illuminated their surroundings.

“Ha!

Look, the treasure chest is here!”

Big Blood Bull suddenly spotted a sparkling silver chest in the middle of the hall and exclaimed, “Bro, you are my lucky star!

I came here once with a friend but saw no chest spawned.”

A treasure chest?

Su Ran was amused.

If this tiny silver chest excited Big Blood Bull this much, how would he react to the large chests in the Dark Abyss Cave?

“Bro, hold on for a bit.

Let your pet Lava Bone Wolf cover me, I’ll open that silver chest.” Big Blood Bull grinned but his eyes never left the chest.

Su Ran leisurely commanded the Lava Bone Wolf to follow Big Blood Bull.

Suddenly, as the Big Blood Bull approached the silver chest, over ten sand ants the size of terriers burst from the ground, all attacking the intruder—Big Blood Bull.

Big Blood Bull, seemingly prepared for the ants’ emergence, was not shocked.

Instead, he moved faster toward the enticing silver chest.

The moment Big Blood Bull’s finger touched the silver chest, the sand ants swarmed at him like they were possessed.

Watching the scene, Su Ran broke out in a sweat.

At that moment, Big Blood Bull remained unruffled, activating his Blood Shield skill to encase himself in a bloody shell, focusing on opening the chest.

Has Big Blood Bull gone mad?

Su Ran directed his Lava Bone Wolf to attack the ants, hoping to attract their attention away from the Big Blood Bull and alleviate his burden.

He shouted, “Forget the treasure!

Run!”

However, Big Blood Bull ignored him, calmly looting everything from the chest.

With the delay, several ants had already swarmed around Big Blood Bull, furiously attacking him.

Big Blood Bull’s Blood Shield only lasted several seconds.

Seeing the sand ants rushing at him, he nonchalantly took out a heart-shaped stone from his bag and crushed it.

Suddenly, a luminous circle appeared out of thin air, transforming into a torrent that repelled the ants surrounding Big Blood Bull.

Taking advantage of the moment, Big Blood Bull sprinted away, waving at Su Ran while running.

“Bro, run!

There’s a secret passage here.

The sand ants can’t get in!”

Su Ran understood, and started to run as well, with the Lava Bone Wolf, its Qi Blood nearly drained, following closely behind him.

Big Blood Bull turned a couple of corners in the tunnel, turned back to confirm Su Ran had caught up, and jumped into the crevice in the rock ahead.

“Splash!”

As a few ants chased them closely, they had no choice but to leap into the dark crevice.

Suddenly.

The moment Su Ran hit the water, something knocked him down.

It startled Su Ran, and subconsciously he reached for a high-level flame attack to counter the creature that ambushed him.

At the same time, the Lava Bone Wolf leapt down following him, its flames illuminating everything in the underground.

Turned out, it wasn’t a monster that knocked him down but Big Blood Bull, who had arrived earlier.

Recognizing Su Ran’s intent to attack, Big Blood Bull hurriedly stopped him, whispering, “Bro, hold your fire.

Friendly here!”
