Chapter 1667: Chapter 1461: The Situation Looks Bad (Two in One)_2
Immediately, Su Ran threw out another purple flame. With the current speed of the Evil Spirit, there was no way to avoid this strange flame. It could only rely on the wind barrier, attempting to block it.
"Boom!"
A thunderous explosion echoed, and a surging pillar of fire erupted instantly, like a bloodthirsty beast, devouring the Evil Spirit. The Purple Fire burned and wrapped around it, causing the Evil Spirit’s face to show a look of pain.
"What are you standing around for? Hurry and attack! I can’t control it for long. Don’t waste this great opportunity!"
Seeing Ling Wei and Xue Wuqing in a daze, Su Ran couldn’t help but remind them, while also directing his pet army to launch an all-out attack on the Evil Spirit.
"Overturning Water is right, strike while it’s weak! Xiao Wei, make your move!"
Xue Wuqing couldn’t penetrate through the Netherworld Purple Fire to attack the Evil Spirit and could only place her hope on Ling Wei and Su Ran. Taking down the Evil Spirit early would also help rid the Elf Queen of a menace!
"Skeleton, let’s see whose fire output is stronger!"
Ling Wei’s eyes were filled with intense fighting spirit. Utilizing the fire magic elements around her, she conjured fireballs and hurled them into the Netherworld Purple Fire, not wasting a single one, all hitting their target.
"Compete with me? Bring it on!"
Su Ran revealed a meaningful smile and directly went all out, bypassing the condensing steps, firing fireballs like a machine gun. Within seconds, he had already surpassed Ling Wei in sheer numbers.
It’s obvious who’s stronger and who’s weaker.
"No more, no more! You’re a freak!"
For Ling Wei, this was a heavy blow. Even her most skilled fire output was outdone by this skeleton. How frustrating!
"Hey, thanks for the compliment."
Su Ran understood that his ability to instantly cast fireballs was thanks to the Fire Magic Stone and the Magic Heart’s Blessing special skill as a golden combination. This was acquired during the martial arts tournament when he defeated the North Mountain Evil Fire and obtained the Black Vine Staff, granting him speed-casting ability, which gave him the confidence to compete with Ling Wei.
(Fire Magic Stone—Instantly cast low-level fire spells, ignores cooldown for low-level fire skills, magic cost for instant-cast skills +30%.)
(Magic Heart’s Blessing—When using magic skills, magic cost is reduced by one third.)
"Overturning Water, what exactly is your profession? Summoner? Fire Mage? Or Water Mage? You even have sand skills, your skills are really a mishmash!"
Xue Wuqing was completely stunned by Su Ran’s skills. She had thought her ice battle tactics were sharp enough, but compared to Su Ran’s profession, hers was like comparing a little witch to a great wizard, not even on the same level!
"I’m a pure Dark Summoner. As for the other skills, they’re just insignificant side jobs, no need to be surprised."
Su Ran said gloomily, "Why focus on me now? We’re still killing the BOSS, don’t get distracted!"
"Eh? Where’s the Evil Spirit?"
Xue Wuqing peered into the Purple Fire, unexpectedly finding that the Evil Spirit had disappeared. This surprised and delighted her, and she quickly asked, "Overturning Water, check if your task is complete!"
"Don’t dream, this is the Elf Queen’s Evil Spirit. There’s no way it could be defeated so easily. I didn’t expect its invisibility skill to be so powerful, able to force itself into invisibility even in battle, and even my Netherworld Purple Fire can’t break its invisibility state. This is a first for me!"
Su Ran instinctively opened the task panel but saw no changes, realizing that the Evil Spirit had gone invisible again.
"Overturning Water, use your Death Gaze skill quickly!"
Xue Wuqing urged, "Don’t give it any reprieve, or it would be dangerous!"
"No way, the skill has a cooldown. I can’t use it again for three minutes. You guys need to hold on, don’t let it reach the Blood Vessel Stone Heart!"
Su Ran scratched his head gloomily. The Death Gaze skill was useful, but its cooldown time was too long. Facing this stealth-specialized BOSS was indeed challenging.
"Overturning Water, why do you think the Evil Spirit is capturing us elves? What is its purpose?"
Banana had been sealed in the Blood Vessel Stone Heart all this time without anything happening—not even a reduction in health, and her mental state was unaffected. Truly strange.
"How would I know? I’m not its father."
Su Ran had no intention of answering this question. If he knew everything, he would have dealt with this task BOSS long ago, without all this trouble!
As Su Ran was secretly grumbling, the Netherworld Purple Fire reached its end, vanishing from the mountain’s belly space, and the dark elements descended once more, significantly affecting Su Ran’s vision.
No choice, the cooldown for the Elf Illusion Stone was still long, so Su Ran could only rely on the torchlight to search for the presence of the Evil Spirit.
As darkness fell, the temperature in the space also dropped significantly, making everyone extremely tense, fearing the Evil Spirit would suddenly lash out and give them a scare!
Time ticked away slowly, and there was no sign of the Evil Spirit appearing. The longer it dragged on, the more tense they became, nerves on edge, vigilant against a sneak attack by the Evil Spirit.
Ling Wei had no such patience and unleashed several fireballs, sending them in all directions. The flickering light vanished quickly, still failing to flush out the Evil Spirit.
"Got it!"
Su Ran’s eyes lit up as he summoned his Thunder Bat doppelgänger. Using the Time Rewind skill, he summoned another one, intending to use the ultrasonic attack to try and flush the Evil Spirit out.
Ultrasonic attack is a unique form of attack, unlike water or fire spells. Dealing with this Evil Spirit requires using unusual tactics!
Of course, this was just theoretical, and whether it would be successful could only be determined through execution.
"Squeak—Squeak—"
The Thunder Bat soared into the air, and under Su Ran’s command, activated the ultrasonic ability. The cloned Thunder Bat cooperated and also emitted ultrasonic waves, with their overlap spreading over a wider range.
To Su Ran’s disappointment, the Evil Spirit did not appear, proving that the ultrasonic waves were useless, and they had to wait for the Death Gaze special skill’s cooldown to end.
In a dark environment, the Thunder Bat had a great advantage, relying on auditory detection rather than vision. After integrating his consciousness with the doppelgänger, Su Ran realized this, and had the Thunder Bat fly around while he calmly sensed the surroundings, trying to locate the Evil Spirit.
Su Ran had already realized the seriousness of the situation. The longer it dragged on, the worse it was for them. The most crucial point was that he had no idea what the Evil Spirit’s scheme was, and with Banana still sealed in the Blood Vessel Stone Heart, a swift resolution was needed!
Suddenly.
A faint and almost imperceptible wind sound interfered with the Thunder Bat’s sonar, making Su Ran’s heart leap with joy. Without any hesitation, he controlled the Thunder Bat to use the Thunderous Strike skill.
"Buzz!"
A dense array of lightning infused into the Thunder Bat’s frame, dramatically increasing its speed. It transformed into a bolt of lightning, crashing into the wind, unleashing absolute might.
Simultaneously, Su Ran’s main body launched an attack. A barrage of fireballs was hurled, startling Ling Wei.
"Skeleton, could you at least give a heads-up when you’re attacking? I’m more scared of you than the Evil Spirit!"
Ling Wei glared at Su Ran, moving two meters away, unwilling to stay near him any longer.
"No time!"
Su Ran had no time to chat with Ling Wei. Hearing the dense sound of exploding fireballs, he knew the efforts hadn’t been in vain—it hit the mark!
"Whoosh, whoosh!"
The ominous wind became furious after the assault, transforming into a raging whirlwind, sweeping towards Su Ran.
"Hmph, you think I fear you?"
Su Ran replicated his previous maneuver, raising his bone scythe and starting to spin rapidly. Unquestionably, he was about to perform the Ice Vortex!
To his surprise, the whirlwind arrived first, and the target this time was none other than himself!
With his fragile bones and low defense, there was no way Su Ran could withstand the Evil Spirit’s blow. He had to forcibly interrupt the Ice Vortex and dodge to the side, while directing the Thunder Bat to defend him, shielding against the rampaging wind.
However, an unexpected turn of events occurred again.
The Evil Spirit’s earlier strike was just a feint, and its real targets were Xue Wuqing and Ling Wei. Before the Thunder Bat could swoop in, it captured the two elves, binding them together, and threw them into the Blood Vessel Stone Heart.
Damn it!
Su Ran’s face changed drastically, wanting to assist, but it was too late. He could only watch as the two were swallowed by the Blood Vessel Stone Heart, with the situation quickly deteriorating.
