Chapter 1646: Chapter 1450: Re-entering Elf Forest (Two in One)_2

"You dare! If you really have such an idea, I’ll... I’ll ignore you completely!"

Lin Yuqing huffed and transmitted her voice, but then her tone softened, "Let’s not talk about it now, my sister and the others are here. That’s all for now; we’ll talk again when we have time."

"..."

Su Ran let out a light sigh. Between him and Yu Jing, their relationship might remain hidden for a very long time. Only once his illness was completely healed would he have enough courage to make it public. Of course, his identity as Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained was one he planned to bury inside himself. When his strength reached a certain level, he would abandon this identity and conquer the world as his skeleton true form!

The protagonist aura of Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained was destined to be discarded by him!

"It’s time for a trip to the Elf Forest."

Su Ran remembered clearly that the Lifeline Space in Elf Forest housed a guardian, the only one who could lift the seal on the Frost Orb. The teleportation array leading to the Lifeline Space only activated once a month, and the time was ripe. Solving a concern whenever possible was always best!

Not only that, he also had to help Mo Qing Qi retrieve a Teleportation Scroll. When he promised someone something, he saw it through—this was Su Ran’s principle.

With his relationship with the Elf Queen, this task was merely a flick of the wrist—no difficulty at all. That was also the primary reason he agreed so readily.

"Swish!"

Through the teleportation array, Su Ran effortlessly arrived in the Elf Forest. The cursed fog was long gone, and peace had returned here. The moist air revitalized the surrounding trees, filling them with vibrant energy. Even the leaves took on a fresh green hue, leaving Su Ran utterly relaxed, as though he had melded into the environment, becoming one with nature.

"The Elf Forest truly is a sanctuary untouched by worldly smoke. It’s a perfect place for self-cultivation. The Elf Queen sure knows how to pick her spot!"

Su Ran admired this vast forest with envy. Comparing it with his own Demonic Treasure Mountain—a literal graveyard—the difference was simply night and day.

He had visited this terrain once before, so it wasn’t unfamiliar. However, since it wasn’t his territory, having a local guide could help avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Banana, are you there?"

Su Ran opened his friends’ interface and saw that both Banana and Xue Wuqing were online. He immediately sent a message to Banana while observing the surroundings, waiting for a reply.

"Boss, you finally remembered me! If there’s something you need, just say the word. Even if it’s walking through fire, I won’t bat an eye!"

Banana’s reply was swift, his tone a bit excited. There was absolutely no sense of distance between the two.

"You’re exaggerating way too much!"

Su Ran’s heart warmed at Banana’s enthusiasm, recalling their past experiences together with an indescribable feeling. "Where are you right now? Are you free?"

"Free as can be! I’m fishing at Deep Sea Fishing Island. Just tell me what you need!"

"Alright, come back to the Elf Forest and accompany me to the Elf Palace. Oh, by the way, save any Deep Sea Bass you’ve caught for me—I need them."

"Sure thing! Send me the coordinates and wait for me. I’ll be there soon!"

...

"Boss, why do you have time to come to Elf Forest today? Finished all your territory business?"

Banana was well-acquainted with the terrain of Elf Forest. Within minutes, he arrived at Su Ran’s side, wanting to give him a long-awaited embrace, only to be dodged.

"Yeah, most of my tasks are done. Now I’m working on some here to ease my workload a bit."

Su Ran stretched out his hand toward Banana without hesitation and demanded, "Where’s the Deep Sea Bass? Hand it over."

"Boss, your timing is impeccable. I haven’t sold any of the fish I’ve caught these past few days. Lots of Deep Sea Bass!"

Banana pulled piles of bass from his inventory, forming a heap on the ground in no time. Confused, he asked, "Why do you need these fish? Got a sea pet or something?"

Considering that marine pets were hardly favored among players and generally weak on land, summoning one was seen as creating an awkward situation, akin to possessing a worthless chicken rib. Given Su Ran’s strength, he surely wouldn’t make such a rookie mistake, right?

"Oh, it’s for this little glutton. This picky eater is such a headache." freewebnoveℓ.com

Su Ran summoned his Darknight Thunder Dragon and pointed at the pile of bass. "Little guy, these fish are yours. Eat to your heart’s content!"

"Ha! Now we’re talking!"

The little dragon spun excitedly in the air before diving into the pile of bass, gorging itself without a care.

"Boss, call me blind, but I really can’t tell what breed this is. If you told me it’s a mudfish, I’d believe it—but it’s floating midair! What’s going on?"

Banana’s eyes widened in surprise as though he had stumbled upon an alien species. "And it talks? What’s with the gibberish noises?"

"Mudfish? This is a Thunder Dragon. Don’t underestimate it—it’s a magical beast!"

Su Ran didn’t hide anything from Banana, especially considering they were brothers bound by shared tribulations. After all, even the secret of his skeleton true form was known to Banana; hiding more now would be pointless.

"What? A Thunder Dragon? You own a magical beast? Am I hearing this wrong?"

Banana’s shock rendered him nearly speechless, as though hit by lightning, leaving him utterly dumbfounded.

"What would I gain by lying to you? This is the strongest pet in my roster. Don’t mess with it."

Su Ran chuckled at Banana’s reaction, recalling his own initial disbelief—the two were remarkably similar. Knowing the Darknight Thunder Dragon’s vengeful nature, he felt a word of caution was necessary.

"Boss, I assume it doesn’t understand human speech, right?"

Banana cast a quick glance toward the dining dragon, then hurried to Su Ran’s side to whisper.

"Correct. Only those fluent in Dragon Language can communicate with it."

"Great. Then I don’t have to hold back while speaking. Boss, forgive my bluntness, but this dragon looks awfully shabby—no trace of dragon majesty at all. It even seems malnourished. Too unimpressive."

Banana’s expression turned peculiar after his remark, realizing he might have gone too far. He quickly added, "Boss, I’m just joking—don’t take it personally."

"Why would I be upset over that? Don’t underestimate me."

Su Ran finished speaking and kicked Banana squarely in the backside. Finally, he said, "Ah, that hits the spot."

"..."

The unexpected attack nearly sent Banana face-first to the ground. Thankfully, his elven profession endowed him with exceptional agility, allowing him to steady himself in time.

"Boss, my bad. I shouldn’t have disrespected your pet. Dragons are sacred and powerful creatures without exception! This mudfish surely has massive growth potential—it could evolve into the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon someday! I’m totally rooting for it!"

Banana immediately changed his tune, showering the dragon with compliments. He quickly grasped that Su Ran held the Darknight Thunder Dragon in high regard—offending the dragon was tantamount to slapping Su Ran in the face. He wouldn’t dare risk being so tactless again.

"Now you’re getting it. Right now, it’s only in its infancy. Once it reaches level 30, its riding skill will activate. By then, I’ll be able to soar through the skies on its back—you’ll be so jealous!"

Su Ran chuckled, brimming with confidence in his dragon. He had asked Banana for the Deep Sea Bass precisely to help the dragon accumulate more experience. Riding a dragon as epic transport? It was the ultimate power flex!

"Ride a dragon? Boss, can you let me tag along for some showboating? I’ve never seen a mature dragon, let alone ridden one—it’s beyond my wildest dreams!"

Banana was utterly overwhelmed, realizing how naive he had been in questioning the Darknight Thunder Dragon. If it had been his pet, he would’ve woken up laughing every night in sheer joy...

"Dream on. Dragons are innately proud beings—they wouldn’t let outsiders ride them. Only I, their master, have that privilege. Unfortunately, it’s still level 29—we’ll have to wait for it to mature."

Su Ran sighed, wishing he could persuade the system to allow him to purchase some kind of growth accelerator to make the dragon mature overnight. How cool would that be!

"Boss, I envy the opportunities you get. Next time you go on an adventure, take me along—I promise not to be deadweight!"

Apart from envy, Banana couldn’t stop lamenting to Su Ran, "My pet, the Parasite Tree, is worlds apart. Even though it’s a growth-type pet, it can’t be ridden. This thing would likely stab your butt if you tried..."
