Chapter 432 Gravekeeper, demand the body!
After hearing the old man's words, Suning felt a storm in his mind, and his thoughts were in a mess for a while.
"Are craftsmen really that terrifying?" Su Bai muttered to himself, his voice filled with barely concealed shock. "They actually want to create a system and even rewrite the rules of the existing system."
Hearing this, the old man let out a hoarse laugh. "Little girl, you haven't seen true madness yet. In this exiled land, there are many people as extreme as the craftsman."
He stretched out his skinny fingers and pointed at Suning. "But what you should be most concerned about now is how to survive here."
Suning took a deep breath and tried to calm his turbulent emotions.
She looked around the dark cave and asked the question in her mind: "You call this place the 'garbage dump of the world'. Are the people here all expelled by the system?"
"Of course!" The old man grinned, revealing a row of jagged yellow teeth. "Who among those who can come here is not a thorn in the side of the system?"
The old man suddenly exaggeratedly wiped away non-existent tears. "Just like me, an old man, I just like studying corpses. I just dug up the graves of a few important people, but some existence used the power of the system to ruthlessly expel me here! Oh, I am so miserable!"
After hearing this, Suning was so upset that he couldn't help but complain in his heart: This is not a grave keeper, he is clearly a tomb robber!
However, this made Suning feel very crisis-ridden. Why did the old man in front of him warn him?
But what concerned her more was the old man's hint about the scavenger's talent.
She asked, "Then why is my scavenger talent also feared by the system?"
The old man's green eyes suddenly became deeper, and his voice became a little deeper. "Little girl, your talent as a scavenger is not a simple existence. You should know its value better than anyone else. Of course, no one who was expelled here is an extremely talented person."
Suning was stunned when he heard this, and then fell into deep thought.
Indeed, her growth from an ordinary player to where she is today is entirely due to the three abilities of the scavenger talent:
[Eyes of the Scavenger] can see through the essence of the target. No matter it is a hidden weakness or a precious treasure, it cannot escape the scrutiny of these eyes.
In the dangerous dungeon world, this can be regarded as a life-saving skill.
The [Scrap Scavenger Backpack] breaks the system's restrictions on storage space, allowing her to carry far more supplies than other players.
The most dangerous [Scavenging Poison] is her trump card that allows her to repeatedly turn defeat into victory in desperate situations.
It can devour and absorb all kinds of toxins, and has caused countless powerful enemies to die on the spot.
On the other side, the old man observed Suning with satisfaction.
"Little girl, since I've told you so much about this place, you should give me, an old man, something!"
The old man's voice suddenly became eerie, and his eyes glowing green looked particularly creepy in the darkness.
The wrinkles on his face twisted into a strange smile, and his entire demeanor instantly changed from amiable to sinister.
Su Ning's whole body tensed up, and he immediately noticed that the atmosphere around him had changed.
The temperature in the cave seemed to drop by several degrees, and the fluorescent moss on the wall began to flicker uneasily.
She calmly took a half step back, her right hand quietly behind her back, ready to use her skills at any time.
"What do you want?" Suning asked calmly, while glancing around with his peripheral vision, looking for the best escape route.
Although the Scavenger's Eye cannot see through this old monster, other skills should still be usable.
If things really don't work, she still has space to hide.
I just don’t know if my spatial ability will be affected in this strange place of exile.
The old man suddenly grinned, revealing a mouthful of uneven yellow teeth.
He pointed his skinny finger at Suning's body, his voice filled with creepy excitement: "For example, your corpse is very good!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the ground beneath Suning's feet suddenly shook violently.
She looked down and was horrified to find that countless pale skeleton arms were extending from the ground, grabbing towards her like a tide!
Those bony claws were still covered in rotten flesh, emitting a disgusting stench.
"Hehe, little girl, there haven't been any new toys in this garbage dump in years. Those are too powerful for me to play with. Your appearance is really great!"
The old man's voice echoed in the cave. He opened his arms as if he was performing a grand drama. "Finally, there's a fresh corpse for me to play with!"
Su Ning sighed, a trace of disappointment flashing in his eyes: "I thought I met a good person, but I didn't expect him to be a perverted old lunatic!"
She no longer hesitated and activated [Scavenging Poison] instantly.
Purple-black corrosive poison mist gushed out of her mouth, corroding the skeleton arms with a sizzling sound.
But what shocked her was that these skeletons seemed unaffected by the poison and still grabbed at her stubbornly!
"It's useless, little girl!" The old man laughed triumphantly. "All the corpses here have been transformed by me. They are immune to all poisons!"
Seeing that the skeleton was about to grab her ankle, a cold light flashed in Su Ning's eyes.
She pulled out her butterfly blade from her scavenger backpack, and with a flash of light, the skull was cut off.
"Oh? Interesting!" The old man smiled instead of getting angry, his green eyes flashing with excitement, "Then take a look at this!"
He clasped his skinny hands together suddenly, and dark red liquid suddenly seeped out from the walls of the cave.
The liquids condensed into countless blood arrows in the air and shot towards Suning!
Suning wanted to use the teleportation skill, but found that the teleportation seemed to be ineffective.
Su Ning was shocked. When she tried to enter the planting space, she still couldn't.
The old man said, "Haha, the reason I brought you to this cave is to protect you from certain space-related skills and equipment!"
"Oh no!" Suning looked at the attack coming towards him in horror!
At the critical moment, the red lines on Suning's arm suddenly burst into a dazzling light.
An unfamiliar power awakened in her body, causing Su Ning to feel a sharp pain in her body, and the flying blood arrows were strangely shattered in mid-air!
The old man's smile froze on his face: "What kind of power is this?! It's so terrifying!"
Suning was also stunned, but then he reacted.
It was the energy that the Little Rule-Destroying Dragon integrated into her body that protected her in the critical moment!
Suning didn't have time to think about it. He seized the opportunity and rushed towards the cave exit.
"Want to run?" The old man roared, and the entire cave began to shake violently, with countless pieces of rubble falling from the top.
At this critical moment, the red energy in Suning's body erupted again.
She felt her vision suddenly turn blood red, and her body turned uncontrollably.
A scarlet beam of light was released from Suning's body!
With the impact of the red light column, the entire cave collapsed directly.
The old man's screams echoed in the smoke and dust: "No! My collection!"
Suning didn't have time to be surprised by the power he suddenly gained, and took advantage of the chaos to rush out of the cave.
When she breathed the outside air again, she found that the red lines on her arms had faded, and the violent power had calmed down again.
She looked back at the collapsing cave and wiped the sweat from her forehead with lingering fear: "This damn place, there really is no normal place at all."
In the distance, more strange noises were faintly heard.
Suning knew that he had to leave here as soon as possible and find a safe place to figure out the changes that had happened to him.
She took one last look at the collapsing cave, and after leaving the cave, she could use her teleportation skill and disappear from here in an instant.
