Chapter 152: Unfathomable, Opening the Dragon Skull Tower

The Traveler had clashed with the Phantom Hand before, and knew how powerful the latter was.

In a one-on-one fight, he even felt that his chances of losing were far greater than winning.

After all, the Phantom Hand’s unpredictable and bizarre fighting style was simply too tricky!

But what was happening now?

The Phantom Hand had actually been beaten into this sorry state by Su Nan!

It had been less than an hour since the key fragments appeared, and excluding the time spent chasing the fragments and searching for other holders, the two had probably fought for less than ten minutes.

In such a short time, Su Nan had driven the Phantom Hand into a panicked retreat, a development that was truly beyond his expectations.

Bloodmouth, who was familiar with the Phantom Hand’s strength and personality, was also taken aback.

The Phantom Hand was always so arrogant, what had to happen to make him look so pathetic?

“Be careful, that’s Su Nan!”

“The Wizard Apprentice who killed Ugor!”

The Phantom Hand flew to Bloodmouth’s side and said in a rapid voice.

Bloodmouth was surprised again, but then came狂喜 (狂喜: ecstatic joy, overwhelming joy).

He hadn’t forgotten that the Starsea Tower key was on Su Nan, and killing Su Nan meant the key would be his.

“The Starsea Tower key is mine!” Bloodmouth said in a muffled voice.

The Phantom Hand’s expression changed repeatedly, and finally he gritted his teeth, muttering, “Good, I promise you, kill Su Nan, the Starsea Tower key is yours, we’ll discuss the Ecological Garden key fragment later!”

“Deal!” Bloodmouth’s giant maw split open at the corners, revealing a fierce and savage smile.

The Traveler, not far away, had been listening with a tongue tied.

Su Nan?

Is that the player’s real name?

And he killed Ugor?

The Traveler had heard of Ugor’s reputation, and was said to have a strange insect descendant of an ancient bloodline, with formidable strength.

Unexpectedly, he had died at the hands of the player!

Coupled with the Phantom Hand’s current pathetic state, it seemed like the player was even stronger than he had anticipated!

“Roar!”

A roar like that of an ancient beast echoed like thunder, breaking the Traveler’s daze.

Bloodmouth’s body suddenly inflated like it had been filled with air, his skin split open, and bloody muscles scrambled to push out of the wounds.

In the blink of an eye, Bloodmouth transformed into a blood-fleshed giant over ten meters tall, foul-smelling black blood slowly oozing from the flesh, flowing slowly down the surface of his skin.

The bloated head was completely bald, with only a cold, singular eye.

“Roar!”

The blood-fleshed giant roared and lunged towards Su Nan.

At the same time, the Phantom Hand summoned two four-legged monsters to attack the Traveler, while he himself wielded countless black tentacles, encircling Su Nan from all directions.

“This time I’m going to kill you!”

The Phantom Hand sneered silently.

The bloodline ability Bloodmouth had fused was special, able to unleash the essence of blood and flesh he had been devouring and storing in a short period of time, thereby greatly enhancing his strength.

Although it could only last for four or five minutes, during that time, his strength would be comparable to a four-ring legend!

Even Su Nan wouldn’t be able to stand up to him!

The price to pay would be the need to spend several years accumulating blood and flesh essence again.

No matter what, he was no match for Su Nan one-on-one, but with Bloodmouth at full strength, he should be able to defeat Su Nan.

As for the Traveler, the Phantom Hand had never taken him seriously.

The guy was just relying on the defense of the Green Spirit Tree Branch, his real strength was not worth mentioning.

Two four-legged monsters were enough to hold the Traveler for a while, while he dealt with Su Nan first!

“Damn!”

The Traveler had heard of Bloodmouth’s signature move, and his face changed, he wanted to go to Su Nan’s aid, but he was intercepted by two four-legged monsters, he could only watch as the blood-fleshed giant transformed by Bloodmouth slammed a fist into Su Nan!

Boom!

A violent wave of air suddenly erupted, spreading outward from Su Nan as the center!

But to everyone’s surprise, Su Nan, who had taken this terrifying blow head-on, didn’t even flinch, he was unscathed.

“Over 300 defense points is pretty good.”

Su Nan’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.

An ordinary third-rank Wizard Apprentice’s second-ring spell is equivalent to less than a hundred defense points.

But this punch from the blood-fleshed giant had negated over 300 defense points from the Extreme Protection Ring, almost equivalent to the combined power of four second-ring spells.

This power was definitely four-ring legend level!

“A temporary power enhancement ability.”

After a moment of thought, Su Nan immediately realized, his lips curling into a slight smile.

Generally speaking, this kind of ability has a considerable price, the consumption is also very astonishing, like his Magic Emblem Core, it is also very simple to deal with.

Just use force to break force!

With a thought, silver metallic liquid flowed out of his pores, quickly condensing into countless metal spikes, and attacked the blood-fleshed giant like a storm.

The blood-fleshed giant hadn’t recovered from the shock of his own punch failing to break through Su Nan’s defense, when he was suddenly engulfed by the storm of metal, his massive body seemed to have fallen into a rapidly rotating turbine, his flesh was torn and shredded, and a thick black-red blood mist erupted from all over his body!

Although the shredded flesh quickly grew back, the intense pain still caused the blood-fleshed giant to let out a terrible scream.

The intense pain completely ignited its ferocity, it stubbornly endured the storm of metal, and kept pounding Su Nan with punch after punch, the dull sounds of the punches, like thunder, were incessant.

The two sides fought like this, strength against strength, with the tough attacking the tough, completely abandoning defense, only focusing on attacking, it was a battle of who would break first!

Such a fierce scene, left both the Phantom Hand and the Traveler staring with wide eyes.

But soon, the Phantom Hand came to his senses, and controlled the tentacles to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak attack Su Nan from behind.

The black tentacles ripped through the air, like whips, slashing down towards Su Nan’s back.

Su Nan countered with a shattering sonic wave, at the same time his figure blurred, suddenly splitting into two.

“Instantaneous spell casting? Compound casting?”

The Traveler, seeing this scene, just like the Phantom Hand not long ago, almost popped his eyeballs out.

Two Super Magic Techniques, and they were the two known as the most difficult in the Super Magic Techniques!

No, since he’d mastered Instantaneous Spell Casting, he must have mastered Silent Spell Casting as well!

The player had actually mastered three Super Magic Techniques!

The Traveler was awestruck for a moment.

Until he was almost hit by a four-legged monster’s sharp claw, he suddenly woke up.

“What kind of background does this player have?”

Looking at the player, who was facing Bloodmouth and the Phantom Hand, two powerful figures, alone, and still looked at ease, the Traveler was filled with wonder.

With such power, no one in the Mysterious Wooden Hut could compare!

The Traveler was amazed, but the Phantom Hand was going crazy.

He and Bloodmouth’s attacks had hit Su Nan countless times, any other third-rank Wizard Apprentice would have been blown to pieces.

But Su Nan was completely fine, the invisible protective force field around him was like it had no defense limit, it was simply impenetrable from beginning to end!

Even if Saurolo came, he wouldn’t be able to withstand his and Bloodmouth’s attacks for so long without a scratch!

It was simply absurd!

“What the hell is going on with this guy?!”

The Phantom Hand was going crazy after attacking for so long without success.

To add insult to injury, at this moment, the blood-fleshed giant suddenly froze, and then quickly shrunk like it was deflating.

The Phantom Hand’s face immediately turned pale, he immediately understood that Bloodmouth had consumed too much blood and flesh essence to repair his injuries, so he returned to his original state in less than two minutes.

Realizing this, the Phantom Hand did not hesitate, turned around and fled towards the distance.

Bloodmouth in the blood-fleshed giant form, even with him fighting together, couldn’t deal with Su Nan, now it was even more impossible to be an opponent.

Continuing to fight would only lead to death!

Escape!

He must escape!

Now he had to save his life, and then think about revenge later!

With a glance at the Phantom Hand’s escape, Su Nan calmly controlled the metal storm, shredding the exhausted Bloodmouth into a bloody mist, casually grabbing the dropped magical items and key fragments.

After collecting his loot, he took out a high-level rune gem, activated it, and turned into a meteor chasing after the Phantom Hand.

Hearing the strong wind rushing towards him from behind, the Phantom Hand looked back and was immediately terrified, quickly summoning a few four-legged monsters to block Su Nan.

Dense metal spikes circled around Su Nan, like arrows, shooting straight ahead, piercing and tearing through the charging four-legged monsters, and hitting the Phantom Hand relentlessly!

Sssshhhh!

The black tentacles that were blocking were instantly shredded, the Phantom Hand quickly experienced the baptism of the metal storm again.

This time he had no strength left to escape.

His half-shadowed body could only hold on for three or four breaths before being torn apart and wiped out by the metal storm, turning to ashes.

Magical items and key fragments fell to the ground, being picked up by Su Nan.

Now he had four key fragments in his hands, and after they were fitted together, a key with only one piece missing was formed.

Returning to his original location, as the Phantom Hand died, the two four-legged monsters also vanished into smoke.

The Traveler looked at Su Nan, who was flying towards him, with a complex gaze, filled with admiration.

The Phantom Hand and Bloodmouth were both famous strongmen in the southeastern region of the continent, able to take on both of them alone, and then kill them both, there were only a few Wizard Apprentices in the entire southeastern region of the continent.

Not to mention, judging by Su Nan’s appearance, he had clearly not exerted his full strength.

His true strength was unknown!

He was truly unfathomable!

His gaze swept across the key with a missing corner in Su Nan’s hand, the Traveler chuckled wryly, before Su Nan could say anything, he threw the key fragment over.

This key fragment was useless to him, he couldn’t possibly take the other four key fragments from Su Nan, it was better to give it away as a favor.

Su Nan looked at the Traveler with surprise.

He thought he would have to spend a lot of effort to persuade him, but the Traveler was so open-minded.

After a moment of thought, Su Nan took out a space ring and threw it to the Traveler.

“Payment for the key fragment.”

The space ring was the Phantom Hand’s, and the materials, gems, and gold coins inside had been taken out by him earlier, leaving only a few alchemical magic items.

He also put in the shimmer-level protective magic items he had gotten from the Phantom Hand.

Since the Traveler was so straightforward, he didn’t plan on taking anything for free, he would give these to the Traveler as payment.

Anyway, they were useless to him.

The Traveler took the space ring in confusion, opened it up and his eyes widened.

“Are you sure you want to give me all of this?” The Traveler couldn’t help but confirm.

It wasn’t strange that he was so fussy, shimmer-level magic items were extremely rare, even he, who was considered one of the better third-rank Wizard Apprentices, only had one shimmer-level magic item.

Su Nan just casually gave away a shimmer-level magic item, in his eyes it was really extravagant.

“To me, the key fragment is worth far more than these things.”

Su Nan casually said, and at the same time he fit the last key fragment in place, with a flash of light, the seam disappeared, a complete key was born.

Looking at the square metal key in his hand, Su Nan’s eyes flashed with a hint of joy.

Without bothering to talk more with the Traveler, he turned and flew towards the Dragon Skull Tower.

He was eager to see what was inside the Dragon Skull Tower.

The Traveler hesitated for a moment, then followed.

He was also curious to see what would happen after the Dragon Skull Tower was activated.

One after the other, they arrived near the Dragon Skull Tower.

Su Nan landed directly in front of the bone gate, his gaze swept across, and he inserted the key into the square recess in the center of the gate.

Immediately, there was a click, and countless thread-like, small haloes appeared from the key, spreading along the bone patterns on the surface of the gate.

The next second, there was a loud boom, and the bone gate slowly opened.

Su Nan took a deep breath and stepped inside.

His vision suddenly darkened, then suddenly brightened, dispelling the surrounding darkness.

Su Nan looked around and found himself in a spacious hall.

The entire hall was paved with white marble, neatly arranged with many stone chairs and stone tables, and hundreds of Everbright Pearls were embedded in the ceiling.

It was these Everbright Pearls that had suddenly emitted light, illuminating the entire hall.

“It looks like a public resting area.”

Su Nan walked towards the center of the hall, where there was a teleportation formation engraved on the ground.

The moment he stepped onto the teleportation formation, countless lines of light appeared, weaving and forming a semi-transparent light screen, on which “second floor”, “third floor” was written from top to bottom, all the way to the fifteenth floor.

“Only fifteen floors?”

Su Nan’s eyes flashed with doubt.

After all, the Dragon Skull Tower was thousands of meters high, its volume was enormous.

Even if there was no spatial folding technology inside, according to the actual space calculation, it should be far more than fifteen floors.

Maintaining this doubt, Su Nan chose the second floor.

The scene in front of him suddenly flickered, a strong feeling of weightlessness swept through his body, making his chest feel a little stuffy.

After several seconds, the strange feeling slowly disappeared, and the feeling of solid ground under his feet returned.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve experienced this feeling.”

Su Nan secretly lamented.

This was the first time in his life that he had used a teleportation formation.

After regaining his composure, Su Nan looked up, and before him was a bright hall, much smaller than the previous one.

On the edge, ring-shaped, were doors, through the doorways without doors, one could vaguely see the spacious and neat corridors behind them.

Su Nan stepped into the first corridor on the right.

There were closed doors on both sides of the corridor, he casually opened one of them, and found it was a spacious room, the decoration was simple but comfortable, the furniture was complete, but there was a layer of dust on the floor and furniture, it was obvious that it had not been cleaned for a long time.

The other rooms were similar in decoration and layout.

Su Nan immediately understood, this level was a residential area.
