Chapter 2298: Chapter 1797: Exploring the Tomb (Double Chapter)

"Open the coffin!"

Even if Little Sister didn’t remind him, Su Ran wouldn’t have let this green coffin go. He rubbed his palms together and opened the coffin.

"Click."

A crisp sound emerged as the coffin lid opened. Su Ran pushed it onto the stone platform and saw everything inside the coffin.

"This is..."

Su Ran looked at the coffin in disbelief, unable to believe it was real.

"Overturning Water, is there anything good in the coffin?"

Cream Little Sister couldn’t hide her curiosity and ran up to the stone platform to peek into the coffin. Upon seeing what was inside, she exclaimed, "What is this?"

"A puppet."

Su Ran observed the humanoid rubber-skinned puppet and said in a grave tone, "This puppet has three blood nails on it—clearly a cursed object. This thing is more harm than good!"

"Then what should we do? Should we keep it or not?"

Cream Little Sister found the puppet extremely ominous, didn’t dare to look at it again, turned away, and left the stone platform, unwilling to approach it again.

"Of course, we should keep it. How could we not? I dug it up with hard work—how can I abandon my efforts?"

Even though the puppet was a cursed object and touching it might cause unwanted troubles, Su Ran was different. He had the Illusion Demon robe to cover up the karma, so even the mightiest couldn’t deduce that the Cursed Puppet was with him.

With this in mind, Su Ran didn’t hesitate, jumped directly into the coffin, and with a push of his waist, the Cursed Puppet disappeared from his sight.

"Thunk!"

Su Ran’s body hit the coffin. Luckily, it was only a game. In reality, he wouldn’t dare jump into a coffin, not even with twenty times the courage, especially with a Cursed Puppet. Just the thought was terrifying!

"Overturning Water, your method of collecting items is quite unique..."

Cream Little Sister finally understood. Every time Little Ran collected equipment, he always thrust his waist. It seemed like this was also why the cauldron disappeared earlier. Seeing Su Ran’s posture, she thought of something, her face turning slightly red. Luckily, her white veil concealed it.

"I can’t help it; I fear being cursed."

Su Ran trusted his big step, not himself. If a cursed state appeared again, regret would come too late.

Using the big step might be ungainly, but it was the safest move.

"What about this coffin, why not collect it too?"

"I’d love to, but this coffin doesn’t give me any face."

Su Ran gave the coffin a sullen kick. Unfortunately, it didn’t move, so he had to abandon the idea and turned his attention to the other two graves.

Digging one grave rewarded him with a ghost talisman and a Cursed Puppet, which was quite fruitful. As for the other two graves and what surprises they might bring, he was filled with anticipation.

Regrettably, these two graves didn’t meet his expectations. They were just grass and burned paper—nothing valuable. It’s worth mentioning that he dug out two Armored Zombies at the end, level 40 normal monsters, which Su Ran easily defeated without Cream Little Sister’s help, looting plenty of silver and potions.

At the moment the three graves disappeared, the green coffin exploded, the stone platform collapsed, revealing a dark hole.

"We’ve found the exit!"

At the onset of the coffin explosion, Su Ran was already in mid-air, evading the falling danger. He floated, observing the dark hole, with a trace of delight in his eyes.

"Is this the exit? Why does it seem like a passage to the second layer?"

Cream Little Sister didn’t dare approach, pointing at the pit, "Overturning Water, don’t you have a pet that’s good at scouting? Let it fly down and take a look."

"That’s exactly what I intend."

Su Ran summoned the Thunder Bat and commanded it to fly down, saying, "Little Sister, you better ride the Firebird; it’s not safe on the ground."

"Overturning Water, I have a question for you."

Cream Little Sister rode the Firebird, hovering mid-air, facing Su Ran, "Aren’t you and Yu Jing taking the college entrance exam this year?"

"Yes."

"No wonder Yu Jing is rarely seen playing games these days. Playing games every day—won’t it affect your studies? The exam is just a month away. Have you considered revising for a while?"

"No need, I’m not planning to take the exam. Compared to surviving, the exam isn’t that important anymore."

Su Ran slightly shook his head, unwilling to continue discussing the topic. Yet before he could shift the subject, Little Sister’s caring voice sounded again.

"Surviving? Wasn’t your illness cured?"

"It’s not that simple. My disease is incurable. What you see now is only superficial; it could relapse at any moment. I can only seize the opportunity in the game to find a chance that could save my life; there’s no other way."

Su Ran discreetly glanced at his left arm, his expression complicated. His illness had reached a terminal stage, and if not for the panacea prolonging his life, he might have passed away by now...

"Overturning Water, don’t worry. Once I get the Dream Mirror, I’ll give it to you. If it can revive the dead, your illness can definitely be cured!"

Cream Little Sister didn’t know what else to say, so she offered words of comfort to Su Ran.

"Little Sister, you might not know, even with the panacea, it may not cure the disease. These things are rare and must align with fate."
