The Great Thief - Chapter 478

Chapter 478

The restaurant wasn’t spacious, and the elite monsters inside were split into teams of three or five .

Lu Li was careful when he pulled these monsters, and tried to gather them from the outer ring without attracting the other monsters . Although these monsters weren’t strong or high-leveled, they were still quite scary .

If he was Feared, he would run around and if he ran into a pile of monsters . . .

That would be an amazing scene to watch .

Of course, under the usual circumstances, this situation wouldn’t occur . Not only did Lu Li have his Shadow Cloak, but he also had his badge which disabled crowd-control effects .

Lu Li was only careful because you could never be careful enough when you attempted a dungeon alone .

Before the arrival of Arugal, these spirits were the original dwellers of the keep .

It seemed as if they were unaware of their death; they still drank and chattered amongst themselves . Players sometimes even heard their laughter, which combined with the spooky environment, made this a frightful place .

When Lu Li attacked them, they became angry and viewed him as an intruder .

Besides the spiral staircase in the food court, Lu Li saw the original owner of this keep, Baron Silverlaine .

He was a middle-aged man with a bald patch on the top of his head and a brilliantly-shiny forehead . Perhaps he had been handsome when he was young, but now he was just average-looking .

He was originally an unnoticed lord, but after the arrival of Arugal, he stepped into the history of Dawn as a minor .

Now, this cursed spirit summoned Worgens to punish the intruders of his home .

"Why do I not see evil in your eyes, young one? Why do you have to act like an intruder . " After those who had served him in his previous life died one by one to Lu Li, he opened his eyes .

He spoke innocently, as if he was about to give a quest, but Lu Li ignored him .

While Baron Silverlaine read his lines, the Thief had already snuck up behind him and stabbed him in a frenzy .

Sometimes, delicate interactions would bring you surprises, but it was a bad idea to interact blindly . If the system left you with a chance to attack, it would be wise to immediately seize it . After all, at the end of the day, problems were always solved with a fist .

By the time Baron Silverlaine had finished his lines, Lu Li had already dealt a few thousand damage points .

"Dirty Thief," Baron Silverlaine spat as he spread his hands towards Lu Li .

"Shroud of Shadow!"

Black mist shrouded Lu Li and dealt around 150 points of damage to him . It also applied an effect on him which reduced his received healing by 50% .

This status didn’t bother Lu Li much; he was doing the dungeon alone and had no healer with him anyway .

Lu Li only needed to focus on dealing damage, and needed to kill this monster as soon as possible before it summoned an Ancient Worgen .

After his health dropped below half, Baron Silverlaine finally began to summon the Ancient Worgen .

Summoning was a skill that required a cast time, but it could not be interrupted .

While the Boss casted the spell, Lu Li took the chance to drink an Advanced Healing Potion, and his health began to slowly rise again .

After the Worgen appeared, it immediately pounced towards Lu Li .

The difference between doing the dungeon with a team and doing it alone was that in a team situation, Lu Li could take the time to kill the summoned monsters . There would be someone else to tank the Boss and heal him, and he would also have his team members to help him deal damage . However, in a scenario where he was doing the dungeon by himself, he needed to consider his sustainability .

Boss damage wasn’t something to be underestimated, and even with Lu Li’s current equipment, he wouldn’t be able to last too long .

As long as the boss didn’t die, the Ancient Worgen would be summoned endlessly .

However, if he didn’t kill this Worgen, a new Worgen would be summoned and more monsters would crowd around Lu Li .

He was now stuck between two choices . He could either kill the Worgen first while he took damage from the boss, or focus on the boss while the Worgen attacked him .

Since he was doing the dungeon alone, it would be unwise for him to attack the Worgen .

Baron Silverlaine was the easiest boss in the dungeon, but he was the hardest boss if a player was soloing him .

Lu Li ignored the Worgen and focused on dealing damage to the boss .

Energy Shield, Pollution, Arugal’s Gift – he activated all sorts of different special effects . At the end of the fight, he even used the healing skill from his necklace and barely managed to kill Baron Silverlaine .

Even though this was Elite difficulty, Lu Li silently prayed for a bit and reached out his hands towards the boss .

Silverlaine Emblem!

This was a level 30 Silver ring and the attributes were average, but it had a special effect – Blizzard+1 .

This was an exquisite item for sure . . .

Blizzard+1 – this was too important to Mages for leveling up . If they already had a level 5 Blizzard, it would become level 6 with this item and the damage would be crazy .

Lu Li had heard of people purchasing this item at a high price in the past .

Some even said that Sorrowless had an item like this, or else there was no way he would be able to level up so fast .

Who said that Shadowfang Keep didn’t drop anything good? It was definitely dependent on luck .

With this ring, Lu Li wouldn’t even mind if all the other items dropped were terrible .

The way this ring would be used was simple – it would be rented to trustworthy members of the guild . Lu Li would set the time frame and once the time was up, it would return to the storage .

This was a tactical equip, so Lu Li didn’t specifically plan to give it to anyone .

Whether he gave it to Lonesome Flower or Fat Monkey, it wouldn’t be fair regardless . It was easier to just place it in storage and set the usage requirement to be higher . Most likely, only a few of them would be able to use it .

Mages in the guild would be motivated too once they saw the ring .

This dungeon was now worthwhile with the dropping of the Silverlaine Emblem .

This also further confirmed the pattern Lu Li’s looted items followed – he always looted items that benefits others . It wasn’t that he couldn’t find good items, it was just that his good items were never usable by himself .

He followed the stairs, which were a part of the tower . There were only a few elite monsters along the way, so Lu Li went into stealth mode and avoided them .

After he circled around for a while, he arrived at the chapel . This was a small piece of land and the room was filled with Haunted Servitors and Wailing Guardsmen . These monsters all walked around in a small area and were rather troublesome to deal with .

Lu Li calmed himself down and carefully investigated the walking pattern of these monsters .

In the end, he decided to directly pass through them .
