The Great Thief - Chapter 568

Chapter 568

If he could farm this world, he could make quite a bit of profit from it .

Lu Li wanted to use the Double-Headed Hellhound as an experiment . If he could defeat it, then he could farm this place . If he couldn’t defeat a monster that he just randomly found, then he would just forget it .

The Double-Headed Hellhound itself wasn’t uncommon – they could be found all over Azeroth at varying degrees . Some of them were between level 10-20, while others could be up to level 50-60 . Some of them were even Bosses .

Lu Li quietly snuck around to the back of this monster .

Before he had even attacked, the monster’s snake-like tail swung at him . It was such a surprise that Lu Li didn’t have the chance to avoid it .

However, after being hit, Lu Li actually felt less worried .

The attack only dealt 100 damage to him; its attack strength was really low .

Even so, after being oppressed by those gorillas, he put that thought out of his mind . He didn’t want to underestimate the Double-Headed Hellhound before him .

Although he hadn’t been careful, Lu Li was confident in his Stealth ability .

As such, he concluded that his Stealth somehow didn’t work on this monster . Could it be that because it had two heads, it had better Detection than most monsters?

After the Stealth failed, Lu Li didn’t retreat, but instead went on the offensive . He stabbed the dagger deep into the Hellhound’s head and dealt more than 200 damage .

At the same time, he also saw the Hellhound’s level . It was actually only level 32 – five levels below Lu Li .

For a common monster at this level, it was already quite impressive that it could deal 100 damage to Lu Li . It seemed that the strength of the monsters here was quite high . Lu Li hoped that there wasn’t a Boss around .

He then took two steps back, waiting for the Double-Headed Hellhound to make its move .

He wasn’t just trying to kill the monster; he was trying to thoroughly determine the attacks of monsters in this secret area .

The Double-Headed Hellhound that was attacked let out a cry before the two heads started shaking . The two heads then shot fiery red fireballs from their mouths at Lu Li .

They weren’t slow, but Lu Li felt like he could dodge them .

However, he didn’t dodge them this time and instead allowed the two fireballs to hit him .

-245, -230 .

The attacks were quite strong and did about twice the damage of a normal one, but the two-second cast time was more than long enough for Lu Li interrupt it .

He could finally rest assured knowing that this monster wasn’t stronger than he was .

With that in mind, Lu Li used Sudden Thrust to approach the Double-Headed Hellhound before using Kick to interrupt its skill…

What happened next was almost comedic . After the skill was interrupted, the Hellhound couldn’t release the fireballs, so it was forced to swallow them . Two damage values of over 300 appeared above its head .

Moreover, it also applied a burn effect that dealt 20-30 damage per second .

Was this the legendary magic reflection? What a pleasant surprise .

After killing the Double-Headed Hellhound, Lu Li received a few coins and some random materials . He didn’t see any equipment, but when he thought about how it was just a common monster, this was no surprise .

Surprisingly, it turned out to be exceptionally rich in EXP – it gave three times more EXP than usual monsters at level 35 .

All of these things weren’t too surprising given the circumstances .

These level 30+ common monsters dropped some kind of demon emblem in addition to the materials and common equips . Although Lu Li had experienced rebirth, he didn’t know what these were .

This item looked like money and didn’t have a high drop rate . Only one dropped for every dozen monsters he killed .

Lu Li guessed it was some kind of secret currency . Perhaps it would be useful after he left this place, but he never really paid attention to things like this in his past life, so he didn’t really know .

After a while, he finally saw the second monster – a lava monster that was covered in red hot stones . It used physical attacks, but these attacks would come with burn damage . These were quite effective against a Leather-armored Thief .

Moreover, because its body was covered in stones, Lu Li’s damage was greatly reduced . Sometimes, some of his damage was even rebounded to him .

Fortunately, this monster didn’t have any skills, so as long as he didn’t run into a large group of these, he would be okay .

Lu Li was more and more convinced that this was an small abandoned world . He hadn’t even seen two monsters together, let alone a group of them . Lu Li initially wanted to farm here, but perhaps that was a happy misunderstanding .

As for the items, those monsters could drop Strengthening Stones .

These stones could increase the overall quality of an equipment . Lu Li had collected 20-30 of them, but hadn’t had a chance to use them yet .

In one graceful step, Lu Li used his familiar Backhand Backstab and the lava monster stopped moving . Its body started fragmenting as burning lava flowed out of it .

Lu Li picked up a Strengthening Stone from the lava body and nodded with satisfaction .

It was good EXP and he had found a Strengthening Stone . This trip was definitely worth it .

Every time Lu Li stopped, he would mark the map so that he wouldn’t get lost .

"It looks like this secret area isn’t small . Who knows how many times I can use the orb to come in here? If it’s just once, that would be too unfair . " Lu Li knew that this place wasn’t going to be this simple . The monsters near the entrance would definitely be the weakest ones and they would get stronger as he progressed further . There could even be a Boss here, just like in an Instance Dungeon .

It appeared there was even a river in this small abandoned world .

It was hard to see it, but Lu Li could hear the sound of moving liquid .

Lu Li was reinvigorated by the sound; he was about to going crazy from this place . There was no wind, no sound of birds, no trees and no grass . He had no idea how living things survived here .

At the very least, this river was something he was familiar with .

"Dammit!"

When Lu Li reached the river, the heat wave that he felt was suffocating and caused him to immediately retreat . The river was actually filled with magma, and there was no way he could approach it .

The temperature was so high that anyone who approached it would probably be burned to ashes .

The air was filled with sulfur, and Lu Li couldn’t help but bend over and cough .

After a while, he felt better . Lu Li then saw a shadow creeping around him . He didn’t want to wait to see what it would do, so he tumbled away and started running .

However, that shadow was quite flexible and quickly caught up to Lu Li .

It was cold!

Feeling the terrible chill of the shadow, Lu Li couldn’t help but shiver .
