Chapter 1395: Legendary Magic Staff

There was another piece of equipment. Without the third Epic drop, Executus wouldn’t have been worth all the trouble. After all, Finkle’s Lava Dredger was almost useless.

Fireproof Cloak!

It had quite an ordinary name and it didn’t look particularly cool. If a Gnome or Dwarf wore it, it might look normal, but if it was worn by any taller race, it would appear very short. However, its small size didn’t prevent it from being the highest Fire Resistance cloak. The only exquisite property within it was the fact that it had really high fire resistance. The other two effects increased fire damage, but the attributes were quite versatile and there wasn’t a limitation on which professions could wear it. This could be worn by anyone.

“How should we assign this item?” March Rain asked.

“Don’t assign it; just give it to me. Whoever doesn’t have enough Fire Resistance for a fight should just wear it. If Drizzle Court is fighting Ragnaros, they can borrow it,” Lu Li decided. This item was so good, but there was only one of it. Lu Li had no choice because he didn’t want to give it to anyone, so it just became guild property.

“Damn, the dictator has taken away our items,” Azure Sea Breeze muttered after a brief silence.

“Get to work. If you’re already level 60, you can go home, but if you haven’t hit level 60, you can join Rice Ball to help the others outside,” Lu Li commanded. He was already level 60, so he started to return home. There was no need to provoke Ragnaros, as it was impossible for them to clear him today. It was better to just return and see how the Stronghold was doing.

The emptied chest didn’t seem to disappear, which was out of the ordinary. Lu Li stared at the chest for a moment before asking, “Do you guys still have a quest to do? Go and loot the chest and check if your quest items are in there.”

“Ah, I think that’s for me,” March Rain suddenly remembered.

When she received Water Elemental Hydraxis’ Prestige, she also received a quest. This was a quest that no one else could acquire, as it was only for Priests with a certain amount of Prestige. She had previously received Prestige from Hydraxis, so only she could receive this quest. This could be the quest for the Priest’s Legendary Magic Staff.

Lu Li had forgotten how lucky this girl was. He had been a Druid in his previous life and a Thief in this one, so he hadn’t paid much attention to the Priests. March Rain went up to loot the chest and only managed to get The Eye of Divinity. The Eye of Divinity didn’t have a 100% drop rate and not many people would even get the quest to drop it in the first place. It seemed that it only had a drop rate of 50% and would disappear from the chest after around five minutes.

Everyone gathered around to figure out what the Priest had gotten from her quest but were disappointed. There were more than one Priest here. Star Baby, Machine Bro and Jaweika were all Priests, and they felt bad that they couldn’t receive the quest. Lu Li thought that they had little to be sad about. This was a very complicated quest, and there were certain restrictions after receiving it. Ninety percent of the people who received this quest wouldn’t get the Legendary Magic Staff. After all, the whole quest chain involved several Bosses and even a Wild Boss. The average player simply did not have the strength to complete it.

The Instance Dungeon run had finally come to an end, and Lu Li left. With the end of the cooldown, Ruling Sword’s Grey Valley Stronghold would usher in a challenge to the general public for the first time. The time of the challenge had been determined to be at five o’clock tomorrow afternoon, lasting for a total of two hours. The specific rules were quite complicated, but in essence, all the clubs that wanted to attack Ruling Sword had to first pay for that opportunity. The top eight paying clubs would then compete to siege Ruling Sword’s Stronghold. The Stronghold would be defended by the System’s monsters and only the fastest club to do it would qualify.

The remaining seven clubs that failed would get their money back after deducting a certain amount as tax. As a prize, gold would be given to the final winner of the siege. The winner of the eight clubs would then officially attack Ruling Sword’s Stronghold at five o’clock. If Ruling Sword couldn’t defend it, then the club would have successfully occupied the Stronghold. The club would then get its money back and receive all the prize gold contributed by the other clubs.

However, if Ruling Sword defended the Stronghold, Lu Li would get all the prize gold from the eight clubs. Generally, the siege’s prize gold was 10% of the total gold auctioned. This meant that if the average club spent 10,000 gold for the auctioning process, Ruling Sword could earn 8000 gold coins for defending the Stronghold.

This was just a hypothetical situation. In reality, there were so many clubs that wanted to attack Ruling Sword that 10,000 gold coins was not nearly enough to win a spot to compete.

Lu Li welcomed everyone to attack their Stronghold. The more players competed for it, the better, as it would give them more money to develop their Stronghold. Although the Stronghold looked like it was growing stronger, it was only the wall that was being built. The internal facilities had not undergone many upgrades. The main reason was a lack of funding; the profits from the First League had basically all been invested into the new training camp.

Now that everyone was working on the Stronghold, he owed a lot of money and he still needed to buy defensive equipment and potions. When he left the Instance Dungeon, he had already sent a message to Water Fairy about a loan. The thing that this female tycoon lacked the least seemed to be money, so she promised to fulfil Lu Li’s request. Lu Li felt bad doing this. He had come from nothing and had gotten this far, but he still needed to borrow money from Water Fairy on a number of occasions. One day, he wanted to lend money to Water Fairy instead.

Instead of going straight to Grey Valley, Lu Li went to the Moonlight Forest. With a general improvement in everyone’s levels, there were more and more Druids here. Whether in human or beast form, the land was filled with them. Not all the players were from the Alliance. There were many Tauren Druids who came here to learn from their Night Elf counterparts. Lu Li even saw tourists.

The air here was cool and refreshing, even if it wasn’t as cool as the Black Sea Coast or the Winterspring. Many travellers came here to taste the crystal-clear waters of Lake Elune. The Druids also sold a variety of foreign textiles, some of which were made from Moon Cloths. These Moon Cloths came from the Timbermaw Bears.

Lu Li passed through Nighthaven and went straight to the Temple of Remulos, which was now filled with adventurers. After all, Remulos was the son of the Legendary demigod Cenarious. Many young Druids came here to seek guidance. If a god was only a few steps away from home, only a fool would miss an opportunity to consult them. Moreover, Lord Remulos was quite kind and some female players considered him to be a male deity. Lu Li had come here, hoping to get some help from his old friend.
