The Great Thief

Chapter 1710: Keeping It To The Point

The other clubs reported their own progress.

Although there were more than 800 people, the number of players that had the resources to fight Ouro were more like 50-60.

“The foreign countries are a little ahead of us by a few days. It is said that several large clubs have all entered the Berserk stage. There was even a club that reached 1% HP,” Sorrowless said after everyone was done reporting.

“I have heard they once combined all their forces and managed to get the Boss down to a few hundred HP,” Wendelian added.

It seemed that those reports had struck a nerve, as the chat room was suddenly filled with excitement. There was a sense of indignance towards the foreign regions.

Lu Li wasn’t that excited. The regions next to them weren’t that much better than they were. How could they possibly have reached just a few hundred points of HP? This was unlikely, even if they had combined of all their elite players.

Wendelian was a young girl, but she still knew how to handle situations like this.

In recent years, various conflicts between countries had decreased, but the gaming circle remained adamant. The thing that they had all rallied around was that they refused to lose to the foreign regions.

Lu Li had once struggled to survive, so he didn’t have much time to spend being angry.

However, he was actually even more extreme than the people who were excited. He didn’t care about the rich or the poor. To him, this hostility wasn’t something that would wane, even after a 100 years. Only if one side was completely and thoroughly defeated would Lu Li let up.

When he saw that everyone felt the same way, Sorrowless finally revealed his intentions.

“I plan to set up the first super First Clear team. We will pull together players from all over the gaming circle to create the strongest team possible. We will then be able to quickly achieve the First Clear on Ouro and be the first to do it in the world!”

“Yes!” Elevenless shouted,.

In the bloodlust and excitement, this young guy had already approved of the plan, even before the details had been explained.

“How will we work together?” Lu Li asked.

Sorrowless hadn’t put this group together to discuss the plan, but rather to approve it.

“There are three steps. The first step is to share the combat experience that you have had in fighting Ouro so far. We will then analyse that experience and put a combat plan together...”

This was reasonable. Since everyone was working together, it made sense to share their

experience.

Moreover, everyone had been hiding their experience up until now, but due to the different First Clear team compositions and the strategies used, there was clearly still more optimising that could be done.

“The second step is to choose the strongest line up. This is another discussion we need to have, and we shouldn’t hold anything back.”

The second step followed from the first. Every club had their own talents. Ruling Sword had Azure Sea Breeze, who was undoubtedly the best Main Tank of Dawn. The other clubs had other sorts of experts as well.

If they combined these players, they could have a First Clearing team that was definitely more powerful than any individual club.

Lu Li had to admit this as well. Although he had 40 players in his team, there were only 10 players that properly satisfied his requirements. The rest just had to obey his orders and make as few mistakes as possible.

If he were given a full team that all met his requirements, he could guarantee that Ouro would be defeated within 2-3 weeks.

“The third step... and I hope everyone would be willing to contribute to this First Clear because this is not about a Glory Capital First Clear or a Blood Red War Flag First Clear or a Ruling Sword First Clear. This is about the entire Chinese Region. I hope everyone can contribute...”

Lu Li almost applauded. He had wondered why Sorrowless had invited so many unrelated people to this meeting. He finally understood what Sorrowless was trying to do.

Basically, he wanted these people to pool their resources.

If they had a few bottles of potions, they could hand them in and have it noted. If they carried any equipment that was suitable for fighting Ouro, they could hand those in and have it noted.

Only someone like Sorrowless, who had such broad appeal, could make so many people do this.

Those people were likely to agree too. Not only that, they would strive to make sure that they were giving as much as they could, because they took pride in that.

Lu Li had to admit that there was a large gap between Sorrowless and him in this respect.

This First Clearing team, which would be produced in these three steps, would be more powerful than any existing club. If they could assemble it successfully, Ouro would likely be defeated within 2-3 days.

They should have done this earlier!

Ruling Sword had invested so much manpower and resources into this Boss and had been fighting for more than 4 weeks. But now, he had to start all over.

Perhaps, after taking the First Clear, Ruling Sword could claim some of the benefits.

But surely, there was still a great advantage to going alone and taking the First Clear on his own. Lu Li felt like that was the only thing that would properly satisfy him. Moreover, if this was successful and if they prevailed over the foreign regions, the biggest profits would go to the leader – Sorrowless.

If nothing else, Sorrowless would at least be the commander of the First Clear team.

And when things went wrong, he definitely wouldn’t make Lu Li commander. At most, he would make Lu Li his right-hand man, so that Sorrowless could take all the credit.

However, Lu Li also knew that he couldn’t refuse.

No one dared to reject this proposal. The starting point that Sorrowless took was too clever. He had rallied the entire Chinese region, and so no one could refuse now.

Lu Li was also worried that Ruling Sword would be labelled as traitors, which would be a devastating blow for an emerging club.

The first step was more complicated and didn’t have to be done right away. It could also continue as the First Clear team was doing the Instance Dungeon. However, the second and third steps could be executed immediately and simultaneously.

“For the Main Tank, it should be Ruling Sword’s Azure Sea Breeze. Does anyone object to that? Lu Li?” Sorrowless asked seriously.

“Damn it, you’ve already decided! Why even ask?” Lu Li cursed inwardly.

Lu Li had no choice but to agree.

“He should be fine. We support this plan as Ruling Sword.”

There were quite a few people to select, as there were 40 in the party and a few as backup. Of Ruling Sword, Azure Sea Breeze had already been selected and March Rain was chosen too.

This Boss wasn’t that easy for Thieves, so they couldn’t even pick Lu Li, especially after already picking two players from Ruling Sword.

Lu Li was depressed, but there was nothing he could do.
