The Great Thief - Chapter 521

Chapter 521: Meatball
Hachi Chan seemed to have gotten tired and simply put the baby dragon onto the ground .


As the golden and green light intertwined, the music got louder . The Elf Baby dragon got up shakily before falling back down .
It also let out a quiet cry that was cute beyond compare .
The entire scene went on for about 10 minutes which was much longer than the 40 seconds that Lu Li remembered . In the last minute, Lu Li thought that it would go on forever .
After ten minutes, the elf dragons became more and more transparent before disappearing completely .
"Is your dragon any bigger?" Lu Li came over and squatted next to the baby dragon . He poked it and the baby dragon grunted unhappily .
"Nope . " Hachi Chan measured it with her hands but she was unsure .
"It seems a lot fatter . "
Indeed, it was much, much fatter .
Previously, it was like a thin sausage, but now it was more like a meatball .
The baby dragon wasn’t used to its new body either; it tried to get up and ended up rolling back down . Eventually, it managed to wobble its way back to its master .


"Now that it’s like this, it’s even less likely that it’ll fly . " Lu Li couldn’t help but sigh as they had achieved the opposite of their goal .
"Don’t say that; my baby dragon will fly one day . Wow, it’s so heavy!" Hachi Chan bent over to pick up the baby dragon and suddenly let go as she was getting up .
The baby dragon fell out of her hands as a result .
Lu Li didn’t panic at all as it was so fat that that there was no way it would die from this .
Just as Lu Li was about to laugh about it, something completely unexpected happened before his eyes . The baby dragon that was about to fall actually spread its wings and started flying .
Although it was a shocking sight, it was flying quite well, which was more than what could be said about its master .
"It flies! Haha, it flies!" Hachi Chan exclaimed excitedly .
"You’re celebrating a little too early . Just because it can fly doesn’t mean you can mount it," Lu Li said, bursting her bubble .
"I can fly too, but I don’t have to carry it now . "
Hachi Chan turned into a butterfly as she said those words . She had wanted to fly around the baby dragon, but almost accidentally flew into its mouth . She would probably be the first person in Dawn to be eaten by their pet…
"If it works, you can come back here again on your own . It’s not a dangerous route," Lu Li suggested .


"Uh…" Hachi Chan sheepishly reminded him, "I don’t have a good sense of direction . "

"That’s right," Lu Li said helplessly, "You don’t have a bad sense of direction; you just don’t remember what the route is . Forget it; we’ll come again when I’m free . I need to get back; I still have a competition to participate in . "
The competition was the most important thing right now; helping this little girl with her quest was really only a quality-of-life improvement .
The battle they had this morning was against Blue Universe . Blue Universe was a branch from Drizzle Court, and was likely funded by Water Fairy .
However, this fact couldn’t be proved as Water Fairy had never publicly acknowledged it, nor had Drizzle Court ever compelled Blue Universe to do anything . They had fought all throughout the Magic Cup with their own strength and didn’t rely on anyone else’s charity .
They were competing against four other top guilds in this competition – Peerless City, Seventh Heaven, Gale Legion and of course, Ruling Sword as well .
However, Ruling Sword had been hurting itself as Lu Li had missed quite a few matches . This placed them 2 points behind everyone else .
Peerless City and Gale Legion were still undefeated and were tied for first place . Seventh Heaven had lost one match to Peerless City and was ranked third . The following teams had all lost 2 matches each: Blood Red War Flag, Ruling Sword, Majin Temple, Blue Universe and Gangnam Royals .
Among these, Blood Red War Flag and Gangnam Royals had sent a new line up, so they didn’t have strong teams .
Blue Universe was the current dark horse of the Magic Cup . Their party leader was Flying Fish Hater, a relatively-skilled, chubby man . Two years ago, he was afflicted by a serious illness and faded from the professional scene, but now, he was making a comeback in Dawn .
It wasn’t like they hadn’t encountered strong teams either . The young team of Gangnam Royals consisted of star players who weren’t much weaker than the main team . The ultimate issue was their coordination which was an opportunity seized by Flying Fish Hater to defeat them .
Although they had lost to Gale Legion, Blue Universe still put up a strong fight . The remaining opposing team was two times the size of theirs, but they managed to drag the match on until they ran out of time .
So of course, when they and Ruling Sword went up against each other, the audience was kept at the edge of their seats .
"Monkey, crowd-control their Shaman . Memories, remember your Bloodlust; we’ll focus fire their Mage . " After Lu Li observed their composition, he gave out the instructions .
The map was a large, circular hall with four pillars, but there wasn’t actually that much space and all the players could see each other .
"Why aren’t you attacking the healer?" Fat Monkey asked .
"That immortal priest… have you ever heard of anyone successfully killing her?" Lu Li responded .
Fat Monkey was stunned before he shook his head . "How would I know? I haven’t seen their games . Is this immortal priest actually unkillable? Does such a person exist? "
"You should watch other players’ games if you have time; it’ll be good for you . " Lu Li took advantage of the few seconds they had in preparation time to explain, "It’s not that this immortal priest is impossible to kill – it’s just very difficult . She has forgone the Intelligence stat and put all her attributes into Healing and Constitution . The equipment she has also increases her max HP and that’s without mentioning her crowd-control skills…"
"Is that the benefit of being part of a big guild?" Fat Monkey whistled .
"Basically, we can’t make any mistakes . If we can one-shot the Mage, this match will be ours . " Lu Li never underestimated his opponent, even if his opponent was the rank 30 Blue Universe .
Blue Universe was also trying to come up with a strategy against Ruling Sword, but the fact that Lu Li had replaced Mu Qiu was a bit of a headache for them .
As long as Lu Li was around, anyone would feel under pressure .
"Who should we attack first?’ someone asked .
Flying Fish Hater hesitated before gritting his teeth and saying, "Kill Fat Monkey first . Mage, you pressure March Rain . "
Lu Li was very difficult to kill . If they focused him, they would probably lose at least two to three members . No matter how you looked at it, it was difficult for them . Their only hope was to focus the Priest .
The countdown began and both teams rushed into the hall together .
"March Rain, stand behind a pillar . " Lu Li took one look at their Mage and immediately knew what they were trying to do . "Monkey Bro, we’re counting on you . Rush over there with me and make it look like we’re trying to kill the Priest…"
"Sounds good . " Fat Monkey smiled, gave himself a shield and rushed ahead .
Seeing that Fat Monkey was heading directly at the Priest, Flying Fish Hater relaxed a little and felt relieved .
As March Rain was behind a pillar, Blue Universe’s Mage had no choice but to Polymorph Moonlight . Although Fat Monkey was always the one to rush to the front, they just couldn’t ignore the godlike Moonlight .
Fat Monkey and Moonlight’s classic combo was an ice ring and a whirlwind .
