Chapter 374: God's Skull
Chapter 374: God's Skull
After a crazy burst of thunder.
The people who escaped from the vicinity looked at the location of the old locust tree.
The ghost land asked: "Is he dead?"
"It seems that there is no breath of him anymore." The fox demon lady stared at that place, "Such a terrifying lightning strike, it would be enough to kill him a few times."
The Skeleton Swordsman covered his chest and treated the injuries in his body: "Ahem, if this doesn't kill me, then the old locust tree is simply too scary."
The flashing lightning dissipated, and along with it, the fog surrounding Huaishu Town was also shattered.
The weather cleared up and the warm sunlight shone on a tree trunk that had fallen to the ground and was charred like charcoal.
All the leaves and branches on it disappeared, leaving only the trunk in the middle, and the roots that were coiled into a ball below were also mostly shattered.
This old locust tree, which had extremely strong vitality, no longer had any life at all.
He was unable to survive the falling lightning that was designed to restrain him.
Su Ming said, "Don't be afraid, he's already dead."
After saying this, he walked towards the charred tree corpse with a sickle in his hand.
"Don't take it lightly, be careful of traps." The Bone Swordsman reminded. He had seen many cases where people pretended to be seriously injured or dead after a battle and then launched a sneak attack.
As he spoke, he followed and guarded beside him.
Seeing this, the ghost monk and the fox demon lady hurriedly followed.
The fox demon lady said quickly: "The swordsman is right, we must be careful!"
It is not time to be careless. Even though the old locust tree is dead, that madman is still alive and has not shown up yet.
The team's mission is not over yet and they must remain vigilant.
Su Ming is also the key to dealing with that madman. We can't let him have any accidents here.
A group of four came to the roots of the old locust tree.
The fox demon lady looked at the tree root that seemed to be wrapped in something, and was very confused: "What is inside this?"
The old locust tree is protecting it so desperately, could there be some kind of precious treasure inside?
Thinking of this, a bit of greed appeared in the eyes of the ghost land: "Could it be that the secret of why the old locust tree is so powerful is hidden here?"
Su Ming raised the sickle and hit the burnt roots with just the right amount of force.
bang——
The outer roots simply fell off, revealing what was inside, which was a giant skull.
It is more than two meters in diameter and is pure white like jade. Its appearance is extremely similar to that of a human skull, like a jade model that has been enlarged and carved according to a normal human skull.
This skull exudes a terrifying aura, as if a god is standing here.
The ghost land swallowed a few times and laughed strangely: "Gulu - hehe! What a treasure! No wonder the old locust tree is so strong, it turns out that it owns such a treasure!"
Wang, who was in the undead summoning space, also sensed the existence of the skull.
He quickly sent a message to Su Ming: "This is a good thing! If we can get it, it can make skeleton creatures more powerful."
"If we can control it, it will definitely be a powerful weapon!"
His meaning was very clear, he hoped Su Ming could get the skull.
Su Ming had previously explored the origin of this skull in a CD game.
But since the old locust tree had never been killed, there was no way to get it.
But now, there is this opportunity. And the hint of the horror game also appears at the right time, giving this skull an explanation.
[God's Skull (??? Level): The remains of a fallen god are lost here. The specific use of this item is up to the player to figure out. Because the item level is too high, to put it in the inventory, you need to place your hand on the skull for five minutes, and it will occupy five item slots.]
Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief. Since he could take it away, that would be easy.
So, he said, “This is the skull of a fallen god. I don’t know why it appeared here. Even after the passage of time, it still possesses a certain power.”
Su Ming: "I won't beat around the bush. This thing is meant for me, and I want to take it away."
The ghost land god frowned and his tone became unfriendly: "Why? We got this together. Why can you take it away just because you say so?"
The fox lady also echoed: "Isn't it a bit too overbearing for the president to do this? Joint ownership is a more appropriate choice."
The Bone Swordsman didn't have any objection. He could feel that this thing had little to do with him and he couldn't get much benefit from it.
Faced with such a crucial item, Su Ming naturally had no reason to back down: "I contributed the most to killing the old locust tree, and I was the one who provided the Purple Sky Thunder Talisman."
"So from a contribution perspective, this thing should be mine."
"It was the senior who gave me the thunder talisman who told me the origin of this skull. If you don't agree, then I will go to that senior to reason with him."
As he spoke, Su Ming took out the remaining two Purple Thunder Talismans and waved them in front of them.
The ghost land god and the fox demon lady were frightened by what they saw. They had just witnessed the power of the thunder talisman and were afraid that Su Ming would stick this thing directly on them.
They don't want to end up like the old locust tree.
As for launching a sneak attack on Su Ming and preventing him from using the thunder talisman, they did not dare to do so after hearing what he had just said.
If they provoke that master, they will be in big trouble.
The ghost land god looked at the skull, feeling extremely unwilling, but faced with such a situation, he had no choice but to give in: "Haha! You are really a dog boy, turning your face against people. It's a pity that we just escorted you all the way to the old locust tree to create an opportunity for you to use the thunder talisman."
The fox demon lady's face was full of resentment: "President, if you eat meat, you should at least give me some soup, right? I also contributed a lot."
Su Ming put his hand on the skull and said, "The trunk of this old locust tree is extremely hard, and it has been struck by purple lightning. It is a top-quality lightning-struck wood and has a lot of value. I don't want it, so you can share it."
"Besides that, Lao Huaishu has been running Huaishu Town for many years, so he should have quite a few treasures. I don't want those either, so you can divide them up."
"How is it? This distribution plan is quite sincere, right?"
The fox demon lady thought about it and decided that in this way, not only would they not lose anything, but they would also make a lot of money.
After all, dealing with the old locust tree was something they had to do anyway, and it wasn't just to help Su Ming.
Moreover, they did not put in much effort, and the biggest price they paid was the risk of failure.
The return is enough to cover the risk.
The fox demon lady smiled and said, "In that case, thank you for your generosity, Mr. President!"
The ghost land god also looked like he had suffered a great loss: "Forget it, Uncle Land God, I will just take it as a loss and do as you say."
The Bone Swordsman nodded while holding the bone sword: "I have no objection either."
At this time, the ground shook.
A black coffin slowly emerged from the ground.
An angry male voice came from inside: "I just dozed off, and you guys killed the little tree."
"You guys are really amazing, even dividing the loot right here!"
