Online Game: Super Beast Tamer

Chapter 209: Viper Altar (Subscribe~)

The four people and two pets moved forward quickly in the passage, and after about half an hour, they finally left the trap passage.

During this process, neither the Red Dust Sword Saint nor the cannon fodder had any quarrels, and Su Ming's anger was almost gone.

After leaving the crushed wall passage, the space in front of everyone suddenly became wider, the ceiling was raised by 5 or 6 meters, and it was divided into two roads on the left and right.

In the middle of the fork in the road, there is a giant snake statue carved out of black stone.

The seven or eight meter tall statue is coiled at the tail end, with its snake body raised and its head slightly drooping, its tongue sticking out, and its eyes made up of dozens of emeralds staring at the person coming out of the passage.

With a swish, Sinika, who had been quietly following Su Ming and the others, suddenly jumped towards the snake head of the statue.

Except for Su Ming, no one else reacted at all.

Su Ming was worried that something might go wrong, so he took a step forward and activated the Deep Sea Grasp.

Two octopus tentacles flew out from Su Ming's neck. The tentacles grew rapidly and caught up with Sinika. As soon as Sinika grabbed the snake eyes made of emeralds, she was pulled off by Su Ming.

Sini Ka struggled, and the silver ornaments on her body made an ethereal sound in the quiet ancient tomb. She looked at Su Ming angrily.

"What are you doing?" Su Ming asked.

Sinikka raised the emerald in her hand.

"Let me see." The cannon fodder ran over excitedly, wanting to snatch the emerald. Sinikka moved slightly to the side, dodged, and gestured to the cannon fodder.

The cannon fodder watched and nodded.

"What did she say?" Su Ming asked.

"She said that these gems are very valuable. Wait for her to take them down and she can share some with you." said the cannon fodder.

On the other side, Sini Ka was shaking her hands and gesticulating wildly.

When the cannon fodder saw this, he showed an expression of rejection and also made wild gestures.

Sinika gestured with some anger. After the tentacles on her body disappeared, she crossed her arms over her chest, leaned against the wall, and ignored everyone.

The Red Dust Sword Saint raised his eyebrows and said teasingly:

"Is there anything you can't say? You've been hiding the mission details from the beginning and refusing to tell me anything. Do you really think of me and Spore as free thugs?"

Cannon Fodder translated what Sinika had just said in sign language:
"Sinika said she would give the gem to anyone except Spore. I told her no, but she just wouldn't agree. I guess it was because Spore was too tough when he grabbed her down just now, and that irritated her."

The Red Dust Sword Saint was stunned for a moment and said:
"I misunderstood..."

As he spoke, Cannon Fodder sent a message in the team channel:
"This NPC, Sini Ka, has a bad temper."

Cannon fodder dare not say such bad words directly.

"It's okay, it's okay. You guys divide it up." Su Ming said in the team channel.

"When I get the gems, I'll just give you some of them," said the Red Dust Sword Master.

"Good idea, let's do it." said the cannon fodder.

So, the cannon fodder told Sinika that Su Ming agreed not to do it.

Sini Ka then smiled and walked past Su Ming with a haughty manner. She took out a large white cloth bag and threw it to the cannon fodder. No one knew where it was hidden. She was clearly wearing a belly-baring top and bubble shorts...

The cannon fodder stood under the statue holding a white cloth bag. Sini Ka jumped onto the snake's head, dug out the emerald, and threw it accurately into the cloth bag. Soon, the eyes of the statue snake were dug out.

Sini Ka turned 360 degrees, like a diver jumping off a snake's head. After landing steadily, she grabbed the white cloth bag, took out a pill and put it in the cannon fodder's hand, then took out another pill and threw it to the Red Dust Sword Saint, and then...

She threw the white cloth bag behind her and kept all the remaining gems for herself.

"This..." The cannon fodder was embarrassed.

System: Your teammate, Red Dust Swordmaster (cannon fodder), has obtained the "Poison Eye Gem".

Poison Eye Gem (LV35, Gold):

+10% Agility.

Unique Active: Poison Eye Gaze: The Poison Eye Gem emits a beam of light, dealing (5 + 200 Magic Attack Damage) points of magic damage to all targets within 0.4 yards in front of it, and dealing 10 points of poison damage to the target per second over the next 300 seconds. Cooldown: 120 seconds.

Available parts: Helmets, headdresses, shields

A golden gem is suitable for agile professions such as rogues and rangers. These two professions are also popular, and the gems are expensive and easy to sell.

Su Ming puffed up his cheeks, made a face at Sinika to express his dissatisfaction, then waved his hand at the cannon fodder and said:
"It's okay. Let's ignore these gems and continue exploring the ancient tomb. Hongchen, where have you explored before? Do you know which path is the right one?"

"The one on the right." The Red Dust Sword Saint said, "This road on the right will keep spawning monsters. I don't know if there is a limit. Anyway, I got stuck last time I came here. But it must be the right road, because the left side is a dead end. If you walk to the end, you will be teleported back to the entrance of the ruins."

"Okay, let's go to the road on the right then."

"Don't be impatient." The Red Dust Sword Saint said, "This statue is not for decoration. It is actually an altar similar to 'equivalent exchange'."

"The wishing house?" said the cannon fodder.

The Wishing House is also a special copy of the Ersbine area. There live monsters similar to the genie in it. As long as you defeat the genie and collect all the materials, you can adjust the attributes of the equipment, or even directly replace it with a piece of equipment of the same grade but different part.

Since the Wish House appeared, the price of junk equipment has doubled.

"It's a bit similar, but not exactly the same." The Red Dust Sword Saint said, "Put the materials dropped by the cobra and black dog statues in the middle of where the snake is coiled. It will give you random things. Sometimes they are garbage, and sometimes they are quite good. You can try it."

The cannon fodder excitedly wanted to rush up and give it a try, but Sinikar held the cannon fodder back and shook her head.

The two began to communicate with gestures.

The Red Dust Sword Master raised his eyebrows and carefully observed the cannon fodder's expression - he went from confusion to anger and then to joy, and it was obvious that he had received too much information.

After Cannon Fodder finished talking to Sini Ka, he showed an angry expression and turned to question the Red Dust Sword Saint:
"Sinika told me that putting the materials there will only attract a kind of exploding snake, and there will be no reward at all. Is that true?"

"Oh." The Red Dust Sword Saint touched his head and said with an awkward smile, "It turns out that the NPC you brought is a little useful. What she said is true. It does attract explosive snakes, and the damage is quite high, but..."

"Stop talking! I've had enough of you. You think it's fun to play tricks on me?! You come in and rob my elite monster. You have good ways to get through the trap, but you made me lose two gold equipment. Now you want the monster to blow me to death!" The cannon fodder kept retorting, leaving the Red Dust Sword Saint speechless.

After saying these words, Cannon Fodder stretched out his hand again, interrupting Su Ming who wanted to speak, and said:

"I know. I'll just quit the team. I don't want to play with this kind of person anymore. Spores better not play with this kind of person anymore. Otherwise, I'm afraid they will be influenced by me.

For the sake of Spore, I will let you explore this ruin first, and I will come back later."

As soon as Cannon Fodder finished speaking, Su Ming received the news that he had quit the team.

Then the cannon fodder took Sini Ka directly into the passage on the left that would lead back to the entrance.

Su Ming looked at the cannon fodder who walked into the darkness, then looked at the speechless Red Dust Sword Saint, sighed, and said with some complaint:
"Let's go, let's go to the right. Hongchen, why are you so hostile to cannon fodder?"

The Red Dust Sword Saint smiled. After the cannon fodder left, he told Su Ming what was in his heart:
"I was a cannon fodder in the team. I tried to persuade him several times to share the mission with us. After all, it is related to this relic. Even if we don't want the mission reward, we should at least take some mission experience. But he kept shirking his responsibilities and treated us as free thugs.

He has the ability to not share quests, but he doesn't have the ability to clear the ruins by himself, so he has been putting up with me.

This guy is the kind of person who copied other people's test papers but doesn't allow others to copy them."

"Isn't he gone now?"

"Do you think he really left?" The Red Dust Sword Saint narrowed his eyes, looked at the road on the left, and said, "Sinika must have said something to him, so he decided to leave the team and go to the left. It seems that the left is the correct way. I have come to the ruins several times, and it seems that I have taken the wrong way..."

"How do you know that Sinica told her that the left side was the correct way? Maybe he was really mad at you and left." Su Ming still thought positively of her.

"It's not that easy. He endured the damage to two gold equipments, but he got so angry just because I didn't tell him that monsters would appear at the altar? You won't die if an explosive monster appears, and this altar can really be exchanged for something."

"Then what should we do? Follow them?" Su Ming asked.

The Red Dust Sword Saint looked at Su Ming speechlessly... He found that Su Ming was unexpectedly thick-skinned. The cannon fodder was acting so passionately that he almost said "If you have the guts, don't follow me". However, Su Ming still said he wanted to follow me without any psychological barriers.

"Let's go quickly. If we don't catch up, they will be far away." Su Ming said.

"Don't be impatient... maybe both paths are the right ones." The Red Dust Sword Master raised his head and said to the altar statue that had lost its eyes.
