The Great Thief

The damage was surprisingly high, but it had actually been weakened.

If it weren’t for the few useless words that Lu Li had spoken, Gizlock’s damage would be much higher than this. On Nightmare mode, each tick would deal 240 HP, which was enough to kill a player in mere seconds.

Of course, normal players would converse with the Boss before the fight. As long as you didn’t try to provoke him, his damage would be weakened.

The lines that Lu Li had used just then were one of the most reliable among those in the guides, as they decreased the damage of Gizlock’s Ultimate skill by half. They all had more than 2000 points of health, so this amount of damage wasn’t enough to threaten them.

Just like Lu Li, Gizlock was also capable of throwing bombs.

However, his supply was limited, and like most engineering bombs, there would be a long delay before they were set off. As long as Lu Li and the others quickly ran away, they would be fine.

Lu Li’s bomb had originated from Master Ivy and was a very special recipe. He really wanted to toss two bombs back at Gizlock, but thought about their high cost and changed his mind.

Gizlock was a Boss who stayed in Maraudon, but his heart belonged elsewhere, so he wasn’t really trying his hardest. If he attacked with his Engineering-based style, there would definitely be a few players who would die.

With a sigh, Tinkerer Gizlock fell to the floor.

"Don’t fight Princess Theradras – her strength is beyond your imagination..."

"Loot the body – what are we waiting for?" Lu Li prompted.

"Should we wait for a bit? What if he comes back to life again?" Water Fairy asked uncertainly. The surprise before had given her some trust issues.

"Don’t worry – he’s already dead. Celebras was a special quest; that’s why he didn’t die. There aren’t that many storylines to tell and this is only just a game. There’s no reason for you to be afraid," Lu Li comforted.

Convinced by his words, Water Fairy looted the Boss and found an engineering recipe.

Goblin Jumper Cables!

Recipe: Goblin Jumper Cables

Recipe: Engineering

Requirement: Artisan Engineer (260)

Use: Teaches you how to make Goblin Jumper Cables.

Goblin Jumper Cables: Can sometimes resurrect an ally. Cannot be used during battles.

Lu Li’s eyes suddenly lit up; he could almost feel himself drooling.

This was one of the most popular Engineering items. Lu Li had resurrection skills, so he wasn’t too desperate for this item, but he could make them for his guild. Every team could carry one...

"It’s my turn this time," Water Fairy said. She glanced at Lu Li and acted as if she was going to put the recipe in her bag.

"Uhm..." Lu Li found it hard to open his mouth since he had shoved the Shield into his bag so quickly before.

"Uhm?" Water Fairy played with the recipe in her hands and pretended as if she didn’t understand. She knew that Lu Li had learned Engineering, and had even bought some bombs from Lu Li in the past.

"Can I have the recipe?"

They had mentioned that equipment and skill books were to be distributed based on needs, but didn’t mention a single thing about trading skill recipes. No one expected to see the recipe for the Goblin Jumper Cables here.

"Aiya, I really want this recipe too and it’s my turn," Water Fairy said, taking her chance.

Deep Watersong watched from the side and wanted to laugh, but he didn’t dare.

"How about I trade something with you for it?" Lu Li suggested.

Even if this recipe was amazing and the drop rate was incredibly low, he had his ways to obtain it as someone who has reincarnated. For example, he knew a level 50 quest which would reward this item. Since he knew the guide for it, he was bound to get the recipe at some point.

This recipe also required Artisan-level engineering, which he was still far away from, so he wasn’t in a rush.

However, he still decided to talk to Water Fairy in a nice way about it.

"I want a ring..." Water Fairy said as she pointed at Lu Li’s hand. She had been eyeing that ring for a long time already.

Deep Watersong patted his forehead, beginning to feel embarrassed for his boss. How could a lady ask for a ring? Besides this, he also strangely felt like he had finally seen his little daughter grow up.

"It’s bound. I can’t trade it."

Lu Li was speechless – why wouldn’t this girl believe him? Were the others right about girls being suspicious of everything?

His sister was clearly better; she always believed him unconditionally.

"What other goods do you have?" Water Fairy asked. She was almost going to pounce onto Lu Li to rip off his equipment.

"None of them would be as good as yours. How about you can choose first from the rewards after we complete the quest?"

It wasn’t that Lu Li didn’t have any good items, but that he had a use for all of them. Not to mention, the competition was about to begin and there was an alarm ringing in him that constantly told him that this girl would be his opponent.

"Alright, you can have it."

Water Fairy was mostly upset at the fact that Lu Li was too heartless, which was why she was being unreasonable. Now that Lu Li had promised her something and had displayed a good attitude, she stopped being unreasonable.

Any smart person would have the common sense of when they should take a step back.

The next monster was the crocodile Rotgrip.

Some said that Rotgrip had lived in the waters of Maraudon for up to a thousand years. Even the famous Dwarf Hunter, Hemet Nesingwary, expressed that no one would be able to capture this best.

Hemet Nesingwary was the most famous hunter in the entirety of Azeroth. He had participated in many battles and joined the Alliance in the second great war. Even in the third great war, Hemet joined the army to battle against the demons that invaded.

After the third great war, the entire world flipped to a brand new page. Many sailing routes began to form between the two continents. At the same time, adventurers began to leave their homes to explore the secrets hidden around the world.

While this was happening, Hemet began to undertake his greatest mission – to hunt and challenge all of the most powerful creatures.

Within a few short years, he had become famous with his spectacular hunting skills.

He was friendly and sociable, and his adventurous character attracted many who were willing to follow him. All adventurers saw him as their idol.

Many followers decided to accept the challenge from the King adventurer himself. They vowed to find this mythical creature, but none of them had returned since.
