Chapter 379
Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations
Although it was as weak as a combat pet, the Scarlet Library Dog Whistle quite sought after .
Some players had calculated that the Dog Whistle’s drop rate was around 0 . 01% . Most of the time, it only dropped in the Hero or Nightmare Difficulty . If you managed to get it in the Elite Difficulty, you could brag about on the forums and countless players would look at you in amazement .
More importantly, the summoned furry dog was really popular with girls .
When Hachi Chan whistled and summoned the little dog, Remnant Dream immediately regretted her decision . She hugged it with tears streaming down her face, captivated by its cuteness .
If she knew about this she would have just toughened up and taken it for herself .
March Rain also wanted it; her eyes gave her away . Even Sakura Memories looked envious .
There was even the possibility that Lu Li would have wanted it, not because of its combat ability, but because he could give it to his sister . If Xin Xin could have a whistle that could give her a dog to play with, she would be very happy .
"Dreamy, let’s all take care of it together . " Hachi Chan was naïve but she wasn’t a complete fool .
She saw that everyone so dearly coveted the dog and immediately offered it up .
"Alright, let’s keep going . We’ll have more opportunities to get a Dog Whistle later . We have so many elite groups that someone else is bound to get it . You can trade with them later when it happens . "
The Xin Xin Mercenary Group had many great items equipped . When they got better items, they would usually just sell their old ones, but now, they would trade them into the guild warehouse .
However, in the interest of fairness, items that were traded into the guild warehouse were converted into points .
As per Square Root 3’s rules, clearing Instance Dungeons also yielded these points . These points were also doubled if anyone achieved the First Clear . This meant that the Xin Xin Mercenary Group had many of these points .
Some people liked items like the Dog Whistle while others preferred strong equipment .
There were all kinds of items in Ruling Sword’s guild warehouse that could be redeemed for points .
After they left the courtyard, the architectural style of the map changed significantly . The history of this place predated the Scarlet Crusade . When the Monastery was created, this library was established and it had never changed through the ages .
The Scarlet Crusade was a little extreme, but these buildings were indifferent to whoever occupied them .
The Tirisfal Woodland’s rainy season had finally arrived . Raindrops landed on the roofs of the wooden huts as the strong aroma of vegetation wafted through the air . The fighting in the area also quickly dissipated .
"The peacefulness here is just an illusion . Be careful, everyone," Lu Li reminded .
Lu Li was poor and had never gone to school, so he had a great thirst for knowledge . As such, he had suffered a great loss the first time he came here .
The Scarlet Acolytes didn’t care what you thought and would start casting their curses on sight . Their curses were similar to those of the Warlocks, but they also knew some Mage skills, the scariest of which was undoubtedly Polymorph .
The first unlucky was Azure Sea Breeze, who was turned into a frog .
If this wasn’t a virtual game, players wouldn’t be able to appreciate the same visual shock . The player being polymorphed would suddenly become smaller while the world grew larger . The dozens of players around them would also look very strange .
"Mommy!" Azure Sea Breeze cried out and started running .
He opened his mouth to speak but he couldn’t find the words to express himself . The only sound he could make was ‘ribbit’!
Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit!
The player that had been holding up the shield and protecting the team had been turned into a frog, and was croaking and hopping around .
At this point, transforming players into sheep had not yet been popularized . Besides, it was much more disorienting when they were turned into frogs .
"Haha, he should just stay in this form . "
Wandering knew that this was a monster’s skill and would only last a short while, but he couldn’t help gloating while he the opportunity .
He even almost stepped onto him .
"If you give him a kiss, he will turn back into his original form, frog prince," Sakura Memories maliciously said . This girl was always fantasizing about other men .
"In that case, I guess he’s staying in this form," Wandering laughed coldly .
"March, remove the curse," Lu Li said helplessly .
Did his teammates not feel a sense of urgency? They were still in an Instance Dungeon .
They were treating the Instance Dungeon like some kind of game, which was typical of them, but then again, they really were playing a game .
March Rain lifted the curse with one skill, returning Azure Sea Breeze to his original form . His world was now back to normal, but he saw everyone else laughing at him . He cried out in anger and rushed at the Crimson Acolyte, presumably blaming it for everything that had happened .
As they cleared out the rest of the path, no one else was Polymorphed .
There were also some other curious curses that they encountered . Some made them bigger, smaller, slower or weaker…
Fortunately, March Rain could remove most magical de-buffs, while Lonesome Flower and Hachi Chan could remove curses .
"Quickly! attack this one!" Lu Li’s eyes lit up as he pointed to one of the mobs .
As he spoke, he used his Cloak’s effect to appear behind the mob, but he only realized that this mob wasn’t affected by crowd control after he had cast Cheap Shot .
Fortunately, it was rare that the others would see him this excited . As such, they all cast their skills at the little mob that was carrying a bag and killed it on the spot .
There was an explosion of gold coins as it fell to the ground .
It was rare for mobs to drop gold coins in Dawn . It was already quite generous for a small mob to drop one or two silver coins . Bosses could drop gold coins, but there were usually only a few of them . After they had killed this monster, at least a dozen gold coins were dropped .
There was even a Skill Book lying on the ground .
This was the Scarlet Custodian, which was similar to the treasure hunting demons in other games .
The previous Instance Dungeon had been completed at too low of a level, so this was the first time it had appeared .
This monster wasn’t very strong; it didn’t have high defense and its HP was rather low . Moreover, it never attacked and would always try to run away .
It was difficult to deal with because it wasn’t affected by crowd control, so you couldn’t hold it in place to prevent it from escaping down its hole . Once it went down the hole, it was impossible for the players to catch it .
In this case, the Xin Xin Mercenary Group’s attacks were heaven-defying . Otherwise, it would have managed to escape into its hole .
The Scarlet Custodian had excellent drops; it would often drop Skill Books and Gold . With regards to the coins, it would be strange if it dropped less than 12 gold coins at a time . Killing this monster would always yield the players a small fortune .
The gold coins were picked up and automatically divided into everyone’s backpacks .
Lu Li noticed that he had been assigned 7 gold coins, which meant that there were at least 70 gold coins .
In addition, there was also a skill book .
This rare monster would never drop a useless skill book, so Lu Li was filled with anticipation .
