Chapter 1576 - Warlocks Don’t Need Mounts
Chapter 1576: Warlocks Don’t Need Mounts
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Far out! If I’m too scared to even fight after he’s given up a piece of his equipment, then I’d be a coward. I’d rather lose with some dignity,” Fat Monkey loudly announced. He was evidently also full of pride. Even if Wandering was not a fan of him, there was no other choice but to cheer for him.
The monsters of the surrounding area had been killed already which made it the perfect battle arena. The two quickly got into it; the PVP began and Lu Li entered stealth instantly. A PVP battle between a thief and mage could be decided instantly. Even at his best, he wouldn’t dare face a powerful mage head-on.
No matter the circumstance, Lu Li would give it his best. He and Water Fairy wouldn’t pull any punches when fighting each other. Water Fairy, the proud person she was, didn’t like it when he would let her win on purpose— let alone PVP maniacs like Fat Monkey.
Fat Monkey was waiting, always on guard in case Lu Li snuck around and attacked him from behind.
It was a test of patience and observation, as well as his intuition. Fat Monkey quietly added two pieces of Perception equipment on standby. This was perfect against thieves like Lu Li who had a powerful stealth ability.
Fat Monkey could faintly feel there was someone near him through his intuition.
It was as if he felt a vague shadow appear behind him. He didn’t even think and casted Cone of Cold.
Clouds of wind and mist danced across the area. However, Lu Li did not emerge.
Fat Monkey had a stern look and swung his staff behind him; his judgement was correct. As his Cone of Cold swept across the area where Lu Li was, he had already appeared behind Far Monkey in an instant.
Or perhaps sensing Lu Li may have been part of Lu Li’s plan to get behind Fat Monkey for a cheap shot.
“Okay,” Fat Monkey’s reaction time was not bad. Those who knew what was going on, including Moonlight, had nodded in admiration. Fat Monkey had only used a normal attack with a staff. When the staff swatted at Lu Li, he could be pulled out of Stealth if luck was on Fat Monkey’s side. This would prevent Lu Li from using Cheap Shot. Even if he had bad luck, he would still at least interrupt the skill that Lu Li was casting.
If a skill was selected, the system will determine whether the skill failed or if the effect was reduced. If it was an ordinary PVP master, they probably wouldn’t have used a staff. They would have used Frost Nova to freeze Lu Li and blink to escape. Then, you could deal as much damage as you want to Lu Li. That was an ideal outcome, but in reality, its success rate was nearly zero. A master like Lu Li would be able to easily react to the counterattack on time.
So Fat Monkey used the staff instead and kept Frost Nova as a deterrent. Lu Li had to be careful of the Frost Nova that Fat Monkey still had, as he didn’t know when he would use it.
Lu Li’s dagger was blocked by Fat Monkey’s staff. The System determined his skill had failed and only dealt mild damage to Fat Monkey, and it didn’t stun him for even a second; his reaction was fast enough. By the time Fat Monkey turned around, Lu Li had disappeared once again.
They had several rounds of fighting again and were basically on equal footing. Even if Fat Monkey fell into a weaker position, the situation could be turned around to avoid a fatality. Even those who don’t know much about PVP started to believe that Fat Monkey had reached the same level of fighting as Lu Li. After all, Fat Monkey used to be beaten by Sorrowless whenever they fought.
Now some people believed that Fat Monkey had the potential to become a second Sorrowless, but many people saw this as a joke.
Even if they were from the same guild, some people thought it was just the guild showing off.
A while had passed, and Fat Monkey eventually couldn’t keep up. Lu Li was Lu Li indeed. Using Moonlight’s words– Lu Li’s tactics were deceitful. If Fat Gum wanted to win then he had to make it quick. Otherwise, the longer the delay the less likely he would win.
At the end of course, Fat Monkey lost. It wasn’t possible even though Lu Li dropped a bracer. But the audience did not think Fat Monkey was not impressive.
“Big Bro has improved so quickly,” Lu Li gave a short comment.
He was someone reborn, so he knew how impressive Fat Monkey’s gaming talent was. Hence, he used all his effort to pull Fat Monkey and March Rain to his side. Knowing so and seeing it in reality were two different things though.
He was still very surprised and was even a bit jealous.
Lu Li had put in so much effort to get to today’s position. Compared to Fat Monkey, Lu Li had already played in Dawn for nearly three years.
“Hey, I’m still not as good as you. Why don’t you get rid of another piece of equipment? Let’s go again,” Fat Monkey felt very disappointed with his loss.
“Let’s stop for today. It’s time for the Instance Dungeons,” Lu Li shook his head and refused.
Fat Monkey’s abilities wouldn’t change just from one battle so the outcome wouldn’t change. Even if he got rid of one piece of equipment, the result would still be the same. Of course, if he had to take off a few more pieces of equipment, he would lose without a doubt. But then that wouldn’t make it fun.
A master without any equipment or skills was naturally unable to beat a novice with equipment and skills. But that was not to say that the novice was better than the master.
“Anyone want these synthetic gems?” Lu Li started to distribute equipment. Strengthening Stones and other rare materials were in his backpack. Gold and Dark Gold were distributed according to old rules and synthetic gems were distributed according to people’s needs.
The Epic equipment were last.
Zanjier Ring! An Epic Ring! Lu Li’s eyes sparkled. It was a Magic Epic jewellery. This wouldn’t go unsold. The drop rate of jewellery was less than ordinary equipment. There was a saying that some jewellery would add a level. Epic jewellery was superior than epic equipment. Magic elements’ common jewellery were even more competitive.
As expected, as soon as this equipment appeared, everyone’s spirit lifted.
“20.” Kitty Likes Meat put down her bid. She had two rings, one of which was Dark Gold equipment. She naturally wouldn’t let go of any impressive Epic equipment that came her way.
More people put out bids. The number quickly exceeded 100.
“120,” Kitty Likes Meat said, putting forth an even higher number. Those who competed with her fell silent.
“Kitty, don’t you want the mount?” Jaweika asked with confusion. He was a Shadow Priest which was a Magic output profession and he also had eyes on this Epic ring. Outside of this auction, he may not even be able to afford this type of equipment even if he bankrupts himself.
“Nope I don’t want it. Why would I want a mount? To look cool?” Kitty Likes Meat said as she disapprovingly summoned her mount.
It was a dark red war horse that had feet on the fire of hell. It was really cool. Very trendy.
Jaweika felt discouraged instantly. He remembered this time that Warlocks and Paladins both had professional mounts. Especially Paladins’ professional mounts were already much nicer than a lot of special mounts. They indeed had no need to keep Guild Points to bid for mounts.
